“So expensive! Fifteen thousand Tranquility Points!”
Yunzhong Qu Feng couldn't even afford it if he sold himself.
Fortunately, there was a 90% discount for the first purchase in the shop, bringing the price down to exactly 1,500 Tranquility Points.
What? You ask me why I didn't save them to buy a Rinnegan or a Mangekyo? Well, then I'll have to explain it to you properly.
Of course, there aren't any! Besides, even if I could exchange for one, would you dare to use it?
Perhaps in the future, the shop might introduce things like the Rinnegan, who knows.
But that's not something Yunzhong Qu Feng needs to consider; he still needs to focus on the present.
“System, exchange for 【Genius】!”
A faint blue light flashed and disappeared. Yunzhong Qu Feng felt as if he had eaten a golden fertilizer! His mind was incredibly clear.
He immediately reopened the scroll to check.
The cultivation method that had previously seemed obscure and difficult to understand now felt so simple.
Many ideas for developing Ninjutsu also appeared in his mind.
At this moment, Yunzhong Qu Feng only wanted to say two words: “Good stuff!”
“Although not a single drop is left, it really is good stuff! This will greatly increase the speed of my Cloud Release cultivation.”
There is still one month until the Ninja Academy opens this year.
Yunzhong Qu Feng hopes to successfully cultivate Cloud Release before then.
“With the blessing of this Genius buff, cultivating Cloud Release is as easy as an old lady blowing her nose, a piece of cake, isn't it?”
The First and Second Hokage placed great importance on the Ninja Academy.
It was the foundation of Konoha's future, and both of them put a lot of effort into it.
And the results were remarkable: the thirty-six students of the first Ninja Academy cohort.
They had now graduated and begun to perform some non-dangerous missions.
Among them, the most outstanding, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo Shimura, Utatane Koharu, Homura Mitokado, Akimichi Torifu, Uchiha Kagami, and others, were taken as disciples by Senju Tobirama.
They were taught alongside Hokage-sama.
Anyone with an eye could see that these six had boundless futures.
Therefore, whether commoners or noble clans, they sent their talented offspring to the Ninja Academy.
They hoped to be favored by the two great Lords and taken as disciples.
And his goal was the same; he had already made a small display in front of the Hokage.
Then, he would continue to deepen the impression by attending the Academy, and finally be taken as a disciple by the Second Hokage—what a smooth plan.
When the Second Hokage retired, he would properly assist the Third Hokage, and when the Third Hokage got old, he would kick him off the stage and continue to assist Minato.
Saying 'assist' was actually just lip service; whether you listen or not, it's better if you don't listen, I'd rather have my peace.
The main goal was still to enjoy a tranquil life and incidentally resolve the chaotic events triggered by the system.
As long as Konoha Village had no problems, then nothing was a problem.
Yunzhong Qu Feng contentedly planned his future life.
But no one could say for sure if the future would turn out as he wished.
A month passed quickly. During this time, Yunzhong Qu Feng diligently cultivated Cloud Release, but his progress was truly moving.
The difficulty of cultivating Cloud Release far exceeded his imagination; each time, he was on the verge of success.
But failed at the last moment.
“I admit, I spoke too loudly back then.”
And the Tranquility Points he gained daily were saved up because he really didn't know what to buy.
He now had three thousand points in hand.
Yunzhong Qu Feng, who had finished his training, went to bed early; tomorrow was the first day of school, and he didn't want to be late on the first day.
Early the next morning, Yunzhong Qu Feng was woken up by the system's notification sound: 【Live a tranquil day in Konoha, reward 100 Tranquility Points.】
Yunzhong Qu Feng had long since regarded the system as his natural alarm clock.
He quickly got up, dressed, washed, and ate in one go, then left home.
The Ninja Academy's location was near the Hokage Rock in the central district of Konoha, not too far from the Hokage Building.
Along the way, Yunzhong Qu Feng saw many children his age.
Most of them were being led to the Academy by their parents, but some were alone.
And when they saw Yunzhong Qu Feng, they all turned their gaze to him.
“Dressed like a sword immortal, it would be strange if the Return Rate wasn't high! It's completely out of place, isn't it?”
He was wearing a white robe with the Yunzhong Clan's crest embroidered on the back.
On the sleeves, there were several cloud cranes embroidered, and at his waist, he carried the family's inherited Crane Cry Sword.
His white hair gently swayed in the wind—wasn't this a living, breathing sword immortal?
Other children were either dressed simply or wore their family's uniform clothing.
But one thing was certain: even among Konoha's great clans, no one could find an outfit more ethereal than Yunzhong Qu Feng's.
“Could my ancestor, Yunzhong Huachen, have been an ancient sword immortal?”
After all, the various paintings and clothes in his home were out of place with this world, but then he found the idea a bit ridiculous.
A generation of sword immortals cultivated to great success! Mountains and rivers crumbled with a single breath, heaven and earth changed color with a laugh!
With just one strike, he tore through the void and escaped to another realm, finally arriving in Naruto???
Even novels wouldn't dare to write like this!
Besides, if he really were a sword immortal, the Yunzhong Clan would have unified the Ninja World long ago!
What Ōtsutsuki Kaguya? What Ōtsutsuki Isshiki? One sword strike would make your mother not even recognize you!
Yunzhong Qu Feng walked along, letting his imagination run wild, and before he knew it, he arrived at the Ninja Academy.
By then, about three to four hundred people had gathered outside the main gate.
There were some Hyuga with Byakugan, some gloomy-faced, evil Uchiha.
But most were commoners.
After not too long, the Academy's Person in charge divided these children into several classes.
Each class had about fifty people, and Yunzhong Qu Feng was assigned to Class One.
The classroom was newly built and very spacious. Yunzhong Qu Feng looked around.
He saw a little Uchiha Clan girl with purple hair who looked very cute.
After getting her permission, Yunzhong Qu Feng sat next to her.
Class hadn't started yet, and the children in the class were all around six years old, a playful age.
Although they weren't very familiar with each other, it didn't take long for some to start playing together.
Yunzhong Qu Feng found it amusing to watch, but perhaps because he was a transmigrator.
He always couldn't bring himself to join them in play.
“Hello, I'm Maruboshi Kosuke, what's your name?”
Yunzhong Qu Feng turned his head and saw a little boy with tied-up hair smiling at him.
When he first heard the name, he was momentarily stunned but immediately remembered.
Isn't this Konoha's 'true' perennial Genin? A veteran of four generations!
So this is what he looked like as a child, quite honest, actually.
He finally met someone he knew, even if it was only one-sided.
Even so, Yunzhong Qu Feng was still very happy: “Hello, my name is Yunzhong Qu Feng, I am the head of the Yunzhong Clan.”
The girl at the same desk, hearing Yunzhong Qu Feng introduce himself, seemed to want to say something but didn't.
Maruboshi Kosuke, after hearing this, continued: “Then we're acquainted! I have two other friends, I'll call them over.” He then ran off.
After transmigrating for so long, Yunzhong Qu Feng still had no friends, so he was receptive to Maruboshi Kosuke's enthusiasm.
Not only did he not dislike it, he was even a little curious about who he would bring.
At this moment, Yunzhong Qu Feng remembered that he didn't know the name of the girl sitting next to him, so he said: “Hello, my name is Yunzhong Qu Feng, what's your name?”
The girl also smiled sweetly upon hearing this: “Hello, Tori-kun, I am Uchiha Chiri.”
(It's necessary to explain here that Chiri is an anime original character, wearing a Konoha forehead protector, and a member of the Konoha Police Force. Due to plot requirements, I may have made her a few years younger.)
