ALL NOVEL Chapter 14: ch14
After taking a nap at school at noon, John felt a slight itchiness all over his body as soon as he got up in the afternoon, as if his body was filled with endless energy.
"It's almost late, you guys, get up!" He looked at his watch and saw that it was almost 2 o'clock. He quickly pulled up Ethan, who was still sleeping, and they ran out.
As a result, Ashley was nowhere to be seen when they arrived at the playground. The two of them slapped their heads and headed to the girls' dormitory as fast as possible. Amidst the curses from the dormitory supervisor, they rushed to a door and knocked on it frantically.
"It's over, it's over, we're going to be late!" Ashley was still sleepy one second, but the next second she looked at her watch and ran out without even putting on her shoes. The three of them ran all the way to the playground, where Principal Stone was already waiting.
"Don't let it happen again." Principal Stone glanced at the three of them. "Whether in the real world or the Sacred Tree World, ninjas must avoid being late."
"Especially in the latter. The main way for you to grow in the future is to complete tasks and get rewards. You can't be late, do you understand?"
"Understood!" The three of them nodded quickly and promised it wouldn't happen again.
Principal Stone said, "Then start practicing. In the afternoon, Ashley, you follow me, while Ethan and John practice freely."
"Yes!"
...
Seven days later, a thin old man in black clothes and white hair, who looked to be in his seventies, walked into the West Valley District City Hall with three students in school uniforms.
"Mr. Stone, you're here! Please come in quickly!" The supervisor in charge of government affairs immediately smiled brightly when he saw the old man and greeted him respectfully.
The person coming was none other than Principal Stone, and the three people behind him were naturally John and his friends.
Principal Stone nodded lightly, took out three pieces of identification, and handed them to the middle-aged supervisor.
"Register them as a team."
"Yes, Mr. Stone, please wait a moment." The supervisor usually didn't handle these chores, but Principal Stone's status was too high, so he hurriedly took care of it himself.
Ashley looked at a tall building next to the city hall, with the words "Mission Hall" hanging on it.
"Principal, are we going to accept a ninja mission now?"
Ninja missions, as the name suggests, are specially assigned for ninjas. They range from capturing ordinary beasts to hunting monsters, assassinating important figures, etc. They are the main source of income for ninjas.
Ninjas on the mainland account for almost one-tenth of the population. They don't work as ordinary people do. They walk a tightrope, risking their lives.
This was also Ashley's worry. She thought she was too inexperienced, and it was too early to come to this place now.
However, this was also part of the training plan Principal Stone made for the three of them, and there was no room for her to resist.
"Yes, you already have what you need."
"Originally, I didn't want to bring the three of you here so soon. If you want to blame someone, blame John. How did this kid complete the original one-month mission in just one week?"
John saw the three people looking at him, touched his head, and smiled.
"It's all under your guidance, Principal, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to do it."
Just yesterday, his Chakra amount exceeded 0.5 cards, and he mastered Lightning Style: Earth Walking in just two days, and now he is becoming more and more proficient.
At that time, three people, including Principal Stone, lamented that John's Ninjutsu talent was exceptionally strong, and he only lacked physical fitness.
However, this week, with the "support" of Ashley, his wealthy friend, John ate a lot of fish and meat, coupled with the expensive Life Fruit, his physical fitness improved rapidly, surpassing that of ordinary students.
"Mr. Stone, please bring them over here." At this time, the supervisor waved from the window, and the four of them quickly went over.
"Just show your panel and I'll register."
"Good."
The three of them immediately showed their personal profiles. Although John's was inconspicuous, he was the one who had grown the most.

"Physical 4 and 10+ Spirit? Wow! Mr. Stone, this student of yours is a bit extreme. Has he not cultivated his body since he was a child?"
"Haha, he's a little special. Please register him quickly."
Principal Stone smiled lightly on the surface, but he was already pleased in his heart. He firmly believed that John's physical level was affected by his family environment and his body did not receive sufficient nutrients. His potential was far greater than that.
The best proof is his physical level. When he first awakened seven days ago, it was still 3. This week he did not focus on cultivating his body, but it still improved by 1 point. This shows that as long as the nutrition can keep up, his body will become stronger quickly.
Ashley and Ethan were also envious. They knew that their bodies were already in optimal condition and they could not become stronger in a short period of time like John.
After registering, the three people's information appeared in the council system of the southern continent. In the future, they can freely accept all tasks in the southern continent, regardless of the city.
Principal Stone led the three of them to the door of the mission hall, gave them some final words, and disappeared.
"Three days, a D-level mission. If you can't complete it, don't come back to see me."
"Yes, Principal!"
The three of them shouted in unison, full of confidence, and walked into the mission hall after watching Principal Stone leave.
It was noon, and there were not many people inside, but almost all of them were ninjas. Except for office workers, there were no ordinary people in sight.
There was a large screen directly in front of the three, which displayed tasks and rewards of various levels from D level to A level. They were dazzled for a moment.
