Chapter 119: Chapter 119: Training
Seeing Huang Sha killed by Qingming, the other two Sand Ninjas immediately panicked and turned to flee. However, at that moment, several shurikens flew from Qingming's hand, blocking their escape route.
With no choice, they had to continue fighting against the approaching Kamimura Youichi and his team.
Although Qingming appeared to be standing idly by, his presence alone was a significant deterrent. The pressure was immense, and even though they were strong, they could only muster about sixty to seventy percent of their full capabilities. As a result, they sustained considerable injuries in a short time.
In the face of life and death, they could no longer pay attention to Qingming and began to use all their strength to deal with Kamimura Youichi and the others.
As the saying goes, a cornered rabbit will bite back. What about two Sand Ninjas who were not weak? Thus, after fighting desperately, they quickly put Kamimura Youichi's team in trouble.
Especially for Shi Mu Teng, who had previously experienced a life-or-death battle but primarily fought against his Jonin teacher at that time. This was his first time facing such a ruthless opponent directly.
It was bearable before, as he had teammates to support him, and he could just assist from the side without being in danger.
But now, the enemies were fighting for their lives, and the killing intent alone was enough to make his heart tremble. To make matters worse, the enemies were deliberately targeting him, seemingly trying to find a way through him.
This added to his pressure, and he narrowly escaped death several times due to their surprise attacks.
For a brief moment, he even considered turning and fleeing.
However, when he caught a glimpse of Qingming standing quietly not far away, that thought instantly vanished.
In such a situation, if he ran away, even if Qingming killed him, the village would not say a word.
Moreover, with Qingming overseeing the situation, how could the enemy turn the tide?
As long as he held on through this period, he believed the captain would not leave him to die, especially since the captain had just saved him not long ago.
Thinking this way, Shi Mu Teng felt a surge of confidence, and his steps became steadier, no longer as frantic as before.
At the same time, he began to recall everything he had learned in the Ninja Academy, as well as the brief lessons from his Jonin teacher, and he applied them to the current battle as much as possible.
As time went on, his fighting style gradually became more structured. Although it still lacked finesse, with the support of his two teammates, he managed to stabilize the situation.
Seeing this, Qingming nodded to himself. The reason he refrained from intervening was that he didn't want his teammates to become overly dependent on him.
While he didn't expect them to help share the burden, he also didn't want them to drag him down during battle.
Especially Shi Mu Teng, who had too little combat experience and needed to be honed properly.
It must be admitted that the battlefield is the best teacher.
Without anyone to instruct him, under tremendous pressure, he naturally learned how to fight. After that, as long as he supplemented his techniques, he would become a qualified Genin.
It was likely that the higher-ups in Konoha were counting on this. As for the Genin who might die in the process, that was not within their considerations.
Qingming shook his head, no longer dwelling on it, and focused on watching the battle.
Shi Mu Teng was right; while he intended to sharpen his subordinates, he did not want them to lose their lives because of it.
Time passed, and the battle in the field had reached a fever pitch.
Both Kamimura Youichi's team and the two Sand Ninjas stood on the edge of a knife, neither daring to take a step back, for that step would lead to the abyss.
"It's almost time," Qingming murmured to himself.
With that, he used the Body Flicker Technique to appear in front of Shi Mu Teng, effortlessly blocking an attack from one of the Sand Ninjas with his sword.
"Huh?"
The Sand Ninja was momentarily taken aback when he saw Qingming suddenly appear before him.
However, when he caught sight of Qingming's blood-red Sharingan, he quickly snapped back to reality and instinctively tried to look away.
But it was too late.
Qingming's pupils spun rapidly, and his hypnotic abilities activated with full force.
The Sand Ninja felt a heavy drowsiness wash over him, making it impossible to resist as he closed his eyes.
In the next moment, a sharp blade cut across his throat, sending him into eternal slumber.
Witnessing this, the other Sand Ninja was horrified and could no longer pay attention to Kamimura Youichi before him. He immediately attempted to flee.
But why did he look at Qingming in the first place?
That glance allowed Qingming to seize the opportunity, and the "Illusion Technique: Sharingan" activated, pulling him into a genjutsu.
Taking advantage of this moment, Kamimura Youichi thrust his kunai, piercing the Sand Ninja's heart.
At this time, Qingming lifted the genjutsu.
Although his "Illusion Technique: Sharingan" hadn't yet reached the perfected state of lv5 (0/0) like his "Magical: Bind Technique," it was on the verge of entering lv5.
That was precisely why he could seize that fleeting moment and instantaneously execute the technique, ensnaring the enemy in a genjutsu.
Of course, both the earlier "Magical: Bind Technique" and the current "Illusion Technique: Sharingan" were performing so well primarily because his Sharingan was about to evolve into the third tomoe.
Otherwise, no matter how skilled he was with these two techniques, lacking sufficient eye power would be futile.
Qingming glanced at his status panel—Sharingan: Double Tomoe (4915/5000)!
It was evident that by the end of the night, his Sharingan would evolve into the third tomoe.
Calculating the time, it had been approximately eighteen days, which was nearly the same as he had estimated.
Once his Sharingan evolved, his "Physical" and "Mental" attributes would undoubtedly increase, thereby enhancing his potential.
As a result, his chakra limit would also rise further from its previous level.
Currently, he had yet to fully explore the potential brought by his last breakthrough in "Mirror Heart Technique" at lv6, and now he was on the brink of another enhancement.
Qingming felt that he would not need to worry about insufficient potential for quite some time to come.
"Captain!"
"Huh?"
Kamimura Youichi's voice pulled Qingming's thoughts back to reality.
"Captain, I've checked; all four Sand Ninjas are dead."
Kamimura Youichi reported.
This was a necessary procedure after battle to ensure that the enemy wasn't merely faking death.
Upon hearing this, Qingming nodded and was about to instruct them to clean the battlefield when he noticed their injuries and changed his mind, saying, "You all come here first."
Upon hearing his call, Shi Mu Teng and Harui Seiichi limped over from a distance.
Without wasting any time, Qingming instructed them to show their wounds and began to use the Healing Technique to treat their injuries.
After all these days, his Healing Technique had finally reached lv3, greatly enhancing its effectiveness in treating external injuries.
Most of the wounds sustained by Kamimura Youichi and his team were external injuries, so they were quickly healed by Qingming.
Of course, Qingming wasn't working in vain; during this process, his Healing Technique gained nearly twenty points of proficiency.
Clearly, practical application was far more effective than mere practice, though it consumed more chakra.
However, to return to the base as quickly as possible and begin the final sprint, Qingming was willing to expend this chakra.
