ALL NOVEL Chapter 13: ch13
Principal Lee Stone put his hands behind his back and continued, "John, I expect you to master Earth Walking within half a month. If you can't do it, it proves that I have made a mistake and will not give you any resources in the future."
"Principal, don't worry, I will definitely do it!" John immediately patted his chest and promised.
The classification of Ninjutsu levels is related to power and the difficulty of mastering them. Level C is neither high nor low. John is confident and must complete Principal Stone's mission.
Cultivation resources are too important to ninjas. That saying widely circulated on the mainland has deeply motivated him for many years—[Ninja has never been a game for the poor; they cannot afford it].
In John's heart, Principal Stone is not only the head of West Valley High School but also his mentor and the starting capital for his cultivation, allowing him to quickly get through the most difficult period.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and missing it may affect his life.
Principal Stone nodded and began to give instructions. He first let Ashley and John practice on their own, and Ethan was the first to receive the Ninjutsu experience.
"Ethan, do you have any Ninjutsu skills?"
"Yes, Principal." Ethan took out a scroll from his pocket, with the words "Earth Style: Thrust" written on it.
"C-level Thrust, okay." Principal Stone asked him to open the scroll. John, who had not yet started practicing, observed curiously and saw a white light appearing from the scroll and shooting into Ethan's forehead.
Suddenly the scroll became blank and turned into a piece of waste paper.
This is the rule of the mainland. You must rely on scrolls to learn Ninjutsu, and there cannot be a master-disciple transmission.
However, the secret realm will not be affected. Principal Stone can also point out Ethan's cultivation experience, and the scroll is only used as a guide.
Ethan began to practice the new Ninjutsu under the guidance of Principal Stone, while Ashley reluctantly practiced Gentle Fist on the side, repeating the punching movements over and over again.
John couldn't wait to tear open the scroll in his hand, and like Ethan, a white light entered his mind, and a string of information appeared, which was the Lightning Style Earth Walking method.
He immediately followed the instructions to control the Chakra in his body to slowly swim through different meridians, being cautious and not daring to pursue speed like using the Three Basic Techniques.
Earth Walking is different from those low-level Ninjutsu. It is beyond the D level. It is very powerful both against people and itself. Once it cannot control the violent Chakra, it explodes in the body... Just thinking about this scene is terrifying.
Buzz.
An hour passed quickly, and John finally ran the meridians required for Earth Walking perfectly. In theory, he could generate and release Ninjutsu.
But because it has been too long, the previous Chakra has dissipated, so it is just theoretical.
"It's not too difficult. I feel like two days is enough." John estimated the time and was very confident.
He has discovered since he was a child that he is not stupid and is much smarter than the average person. Mastering Ninjutsu gives him the same feeling. It is not as exaggerated as what is posted on the internet, and it only takes a few months to get started.
Maybe he would be like this when he came into contact with high-level Ninjutsu in the future, but he already had countermeasures at that time, and Sharingan's copying ability was not to be underestimated.
"As long as I can open the second tomoe..." John thought silently in his heart, "then I can get rid of the constraints of the scroll and time and directly copy others' Ninjutsu."
"Of course, this is if nothing changes."
His only worry now is that Sharingan has also mutated in reality. Although the Sacred Tree Continent is Chakra-dominated like the Sacred Tree World, there are too many differences.
The ninjas here are terrifyingly strong. Just after becoming Genin, they have the amount of Chakra of the original Elite Jōnin, which is not on the same level at all.
If Sharingan also mutates, it's okay to become stronger, but if it becomes weaker and loses some of its abilities, it will be disappointing for him.
"But it probably won't be," John secretly said. "All escape techniques and bloodline inheritances have been strengthened. It is impossible for Sharingan to be the only one weakened. It should be that the mutation is stronger."
After some speculation, he continued to practice and completed the movement route of the Earth Walking again before noon. At this point, John became more and more proficient.
Although Principal Stone was still giving instructions to Ethan, he would glance at John from time to time, waiting for him to ask about his cultivation experience.
But he couldn't wait, and he couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied.
"This kid is too shy. He just keeps his head down and practices."
Thinking of this, Principal Stone said calmly, "I'll be here in the morning and start practicing again at 2 o'clock in the afternoon."
"Yes, Principal." The three of them bowed and watched Principal Stone leave.
After Principal Stone took a few steps, he saw that John still hadn't opened his mouth, so he had no choice but to look back at him.
"John, don't you have anything to ask me?"
"No," John shook his head naturally. Principal Stone frowned slightly after hearing this, "You've been sitting there like a piece of wood all morning. Do you know how to run the Chakra route?"
Um?
John was a little confused when he was suddenly scolded innocently. He didn't know where he was wrong, so he had to tell the truth.
"Principal, I know my talents are limited, so I will work harder and try to run the route three times in the afternoon."
"You mean you've run it completely once?" Principal Stone's eyes widened, and John nodded lightly.
"Well, I've run it twice. Isn't it very slow, Principal?"
So fast?
"It's not bad, keep working hard." Principal Stone twitched the corners of his mouth and immediately turned around and left. Ashley and Ethan opened their mouths slightly, looked at each other, and then Ashley playfully grabbed John's neck.
"Are you serious? You completed the route twice in just three hours?"
"Ashley, are you deliberately taking advantage of me? Let go!"
This girl doesn't even know her own strength.
John rubbed his neck, feeling helpless.
"What am I trying to do to you? How difficult can it be to perform a C-level Ninjutsu?"
"Wow, are you really this amazing?" Ethan punched him playfully, "It's just C level. You, an apprentice who is not even a Genin, practicing this level. Do you know what it means?"
"This is no less than asking us to learn B-level Ninjutsu. We wouldn't be able to master it within a month or two."
"Your Ninjutsu is only 6. Logically speaking, you are not as good as me. How come you can practice Ninjutsu so quickly?"
"Maybe it's because of my high mental power. Don't forget that Chakra is the energy produced by the combination of mind and body. It makes sense that I can control some Chakra easily with such a strong mental power, right?"
"It's reasonable, it's so amazingly reasonable." Ethan was speechless. Is this guy really a genius?
The three of them were noisy and walked toward a commercial street outside the playground. Instead of going back to the cafeteria to eat, Ashley took them to a high-end restaurant to treat them.
John and Ethan knew that Ashley wasn't short of money, so they thought they were looking down on her if they ordered less. They were unhappy and ordered a large table.
"It's been a long time since I felt so good after eating." After eating like crazy, John burped and sighed, as if he had never been so luxurious.
Ethan held a toothpick in his hand, picking his teeth regardless of the image. "Don't mention it, although Ashley has a bit of a grumpy personality, she is quite interesting. If you have money, you really are willing to spend it on your friends."
Since all the dishes he ordered were exotic meats, this big table cost at least 3,000 dollars. Although he was rich, he couldn't bear to eat like this often.
"Huh, two clueless guys, how come I, Ashley, have friends like you? It's really embarrassing."
Ashley had a sharp tongue, but in her heart, she was actually very happy to be with the two of them, and she really enjoyed the feeling of being able to do whatever she wanted.
