Chapter 94: Naruto, Peak Human, Ch 47.1
Aside from the three Genin teams, there were several other teams following Li Zhenwu, hoping to snatch the Heavenly Scroll from his hands.
After eliminating this team, Li Zhenwu decided to take care of a few more teams without hesitation.
Thanks to his ability to sense Ki, these lower-ranked ninjas were completely exposed to Li Zhenwu and were easily captured and... resolved without much effort.
The Saiyan system didn't even classify these encounters as battles, so Li Zhenwu gained any combat points, which left him feeling somewhat bored.
As a result, he ended up with five Earth Scrolls in his possession. Carrying these scrolls, Li Zhenwu walked nonchalantly through the Forest of Death toward the destination of his mission.
Three days later...
Because he was carefree, Li Zhenwu encountered a few other ninjas along the way, but the conflicts were minimal, and he ended up with two more Heaven Scrolls and Earth Scrolls in hand.
During this time, he also ran into some Konoha ninjas. Since they didn't show any intention of battling him and instead greeted him friendly, Li Zhenwu generously gave them some of the unnecessary scrolls he had.
Li Zhenwu's leisurely pace eventually allowed him to traverse the vast Forest of Death and reach the mission's destination.
"Boring," he yawned lazily as he entered the destination tower. A chunin from Konoha in charge of reception came over upon seeing him and appeared unfazed.
"Truly worthy of being a monster from Konoha and the pupil of Lord Hokage," the chunin remarked.
To his surprise, Li Zhenwu realized that despite his slow pace, he was the first to arrive at the destination.
"This batch is lacking," he shook his head. Compared to the Chunin Exams that later had a significant impact on Konoha, this Chunin Exam could only be described in one word: pathetic.
Feeling bored inside the tower, Li Zhenwu sought out the chunin present to spar with.
Given Li Zhenwu's 'belligerent nature,' while the Konoha ninjas might not know him well, they had certainly heard of him.
Moreover, as a disciple of the Third Hokage, few outright refused his requests for sparring.
However, after fighting Li Zhenwu twice, two chunin firmly refused to engage him in any more battles. The outcomes had been too disheartening; it was an absolute one-sided crush!
If Li Zhenwu hadn't attacked, it might have been fine, but whenever he did, the two chunin felt like drifting boats in the vast ocean, utterly powerless to resist!
After this, the two chunin sincerely acknowledged Li Zhenwu as a 'monster' of Konoha and started to silently mourn for the other participants...
Before entering the final exam, a preliminary elimination round was held to weed out the weaker candidates, as there were still quite a few lower-ranked ninjas left.
