Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swordsmen Begins from the Hidden Cloud Village.

"Well, this is the most outstanding elite academy in our Thunder Cloud Ninja Country. It gathers the best children from the entire country's one billion population."

Bringing a group of young people to the gate of the Elite Academy, Tian Cun Hao introduced the academy to everyone.

The entire academy area has been expanded several times, and its area is larger than the entire former Hidden Cloud Village. Even the Elite Academy is very large, with more than ten thousand students.

Xiao Qiang and his friends were very excited. This was the best academy in the Thunder Cloud Ninja Country. It was no exaggeration to say that it was the best academy in the ninja world. They were lucky enough to study here.

"Has the population of Thundercloud Ninja Country reached 300 million?"

Nara Shikamaru was even more shocked by the population of that country. He had read some historical books and knew that when Konoha was still in the Land of Fire, the country's population was not large. But when he arrived at the Hidden Cloud Village, there was already a population of one billion.

This is too amazing.

"This is mainly due to the various agricultural machinery and organic fertilizers developed by our Cloud Hidden Village, which have continuously increased food production. With enough food, people can have children without worry."

Tamura Hao explained with a smile that if the population really exploded it would be quite astonishing.

Just like many people in their previous lives had many aunts and uncles, those are not adjectives, they really exist.

It is the same in this world. In the past, agriculture was all done by manpower, with basically no machinery, mainly due to the influence of ninjas.

I can only say that it is too much of a scam to allow a group of mercenaries who can be hired by anyone to become the armed forces of a country.

It was only after the Fourth World War that peace was restored and technology developed rapidly, but the status of scientific researchers themselves was still very low.

"Ningji, you take them to complete the admission procedures and create their files."

Tamura Hao signaled to Hyuga Neji and started chatting with the old guard.

Hyuga Neji nodded, and led everyone to the guard room, where he took out a stack of blank files and started writing quickly. He even created a bunch of shadow clones to record one-on-one, which was much faster.

"Is Neji-nii a teacher here?"

Hinata Kawaichi couldn't help but ask when he saw the teacher's uniform that Hinata Neji was wearing today.

"Well, I graduated from here. Here, you will graduate permanently at the age of 18, and then you can apply to stay on to teach. However, I am only a part-time student now. I am a student at the Advanced Ninja Academy."

Hyuga Neji responded while taking notes quickly.

"Graduation forever?"

This word caught the attention of Nara Shikamaru who was standing nearby, and he always felt something was strange after coming to this academy.

Especially when I was first brought here, the students and teachers in the college area outside looked at me strangely.

This made him feel a little uneasy.

“There is an assessment every year at the Elite Academy. If you pass it, you can graduate and leave, or you can apply to continue studying at the school until you turn 18.

Education before the age of eighteen is compulsory in our Cloud Hidden Village, and one must be in the learning stage."

Hyuga Neji is very patient. He will actively maintain his cool male god image in front of outsiders, but he is still very gentle in front of his own people.

"What a beautiful big sister."

At this time, Tiantian suddenly looked in a certain direction, where a beautiful woman was walking towards him with charming steps. Her figure was also very charming and her clothes were very revealing, especially her breasts, which made several girls envious and jealous.

Then there is the long, crisscross reddish-brown curly hair that reaches down to the calves, so stylish.

However, this big sister soon lost her image. She suddenly rushed forward with a teleportation technique, hugged someone tightly, and bit the person's chin with her mouth open.

Tamura Hao, who was chatting with the old security guard, was caught off guard when he was bitten. He actually sensed the arrival of Terumi Mei, but did not take it seriously. Who would have thought that this crazy woman would dare to attack directly... no, to attack directly.

"Xiao Mingming, let's talk it over. Don't be like this. It has a bad influence. There are so many people watching us."

Tian Cun Hao glanced at the stunned young men and women and could only try to persuade them with words.

This girl had found fault with me before, and I had given her a good beating every time. I had finally gotten her to behave herself for two years, but who would have thought that she would have another attack.

"Bite you to death!"

Mei Terumi said vaguely that she must bite this big bastard to death today.

I was really cheated back then. Do you know how I managed to get through that year?
Even because of her father's death, this bastard only gave her seven days off, and after seven days she was sent back to college to continue her studies.

Is there anyone in the world who is more of a bastard than this bastard?

"Oh! Why force me!"

Tian Cun Hao sighed, then injected the power of thunder into the girl's body. Her long curly hair, like that of a pine tree, exploded instantly, and her body continued to tremble. She held on for a long time before her hands and feet trembled and separated.

But his mouth was still tightly biting, refusing to relax, as if he wanted to bite off the piece of meat.

In the end, Tiancun Hao could only turn the piece of meat into light before it could be freed from the two rows of teeth.

Ignoring the trembling crazy woman lying on the ground, Tamura Hao put on his signature gentle smile and explained to everyone: "I have a personal grudge against her."

Everyone looked at Mei Terumi, whose body was still flashing with electricity, and they didn't understand what kind of personal grudge could make the other person hate them so much that they wouldn't let go even after being electrocuted like that.

“The dossier has been written!”

After a while, Hyuga Neji spoke up and said that the admission procedures had been completed and the next step was to assign dormitories.

"Come with me, I'll take you to the assigned dormitories."

At this moment, Mei Terumi, who was lying on the ground, suddenly turned over and jumped up, as if nothing had happened. She pressed down her long hair and motioned for everyone to follow her.

She just sensed some big bastard, so she came over to check it out and take revenge.

If the gap in power wasn't so huge, she would have wanted to take more brutal revenge.

"Then I'll leave these children to you."

Tiancun Hao thought it was no problem and was about to leave after saying it, but someone grabbed his arm.

"Why are you leaving so quickly after finally coming here? Are you afraid that I'll eat you?"

At this time, Mei Terumi turned into a charming goddess, and there was no trace of her previous crazy look of revenge.

After saying that, he dragged Tiancun Hao into the school without waiting for him to speak.

Although Tian Cun Hao was helpless, he had no choice but to be dragged away. He knew the condition of this crazy woman.

She is born with a bit of neuroticism, and after education in an elite academy, she evolves into a real psychopath. This kind of woman is moody.

"Is that big sister the big brother's girlfriend?"

Yamanaka Ino felt threatened and asked Hyuga Neji in a low voice.

"That's probably it."

Thinking back to the grievances between him and Senior Hao, Hyuga Neji couldn't help but have a strange look on his face. Then he glanced at the boys and girls around him, and couldn't help but feel more pity in his heart.

These kids are just like Senior Ming back then, they were all tricked into coming here, and the first year is the most difficult for them.

I'm sure he will resent Senior Hao afterwards.

"Senior Neji, why does this school have that kind of graduation rule?"

Nara Shikamaru came over to ask, and felt more and more that there was something strange about this academy.

"That's because the teaching method of our elite academy is relatively strict. Those who are not mentally strong enough will be eliminated. Only those who can stay on their own initiative are the elite among the elites."

Hyuga Neji explained that these poor kids had already completed the admission procedures, so there was nothing wrong with talking about it now.

"harsh?"

People don’t understand this word, how harsh must it be to make people unable to persevere.

Then they soon saw what harsh teaching was.

I saw a group of young boys and girls paddling forward frantically in a huge artificial lake, and behind them were many triangular dorsal fins swimming quickly in pursuit. Then, water splashed, and suddenly a huge shark raised its head, bit a boy's leg, and then threw him violently. The poor boy was thrown to the shore, and blood splattered all over the place.

This is not the end yet. A group of vicious dogs on the shore saw the prey coming ashore and rushed over immediately. One vicious dog even targeted the boy's vitals and opened its mouth wide to bite him.

The boy didn't care about the pain. He rolled over and crawled back into the lake to continue paddling and swimming frantically. He simply took a bottle of spray from the belt around his waist and sprayed it around the wound to stop the bleeding.

Similar scenes kept happening. Poor kids were torn apart by sharks and thrown onto the shore with broken arms and legs. Then, driven away by a group of vicious dogs, they crawled back into the lake neatly and continued to paddle in the water frantically.

Some students who were seriously injured and unconscious were carried to the open-air classroom nearby. A special medical teacher brought a group of medical students to teach on-site. It was really not a waste at all.

Even those students who had not yet been assigned an experimental subject were staring at the swimming competition in the lake with eagerness, hoping that an experimental subject could be sent to them as soon as possible.

“Is this teaching?”

Everyone was stunned, and then their legs started to tremble.

This is not harsh teaching at all; even the word cruel is not enough to describe it.

"Ningji-senpai, is it too late to drop out of school now?"

Nara Shikamaru had a sad face, knowing that he had definitely been tricked.

Everyone looked at Hyuga Neji pleadingly and hopefully, wanting to go back to their mother immediately. This elite academy was definitely not a place for people to stay. "It's impossible to drop out, but you can skip classes. That's also a course in our academy, as long as you can escape."

Hyuga Neji did not say anything definite, but said that it was possible to skip school, provided that one could escape.

Every student who comes here will try to skip school, and some even skip school collectively. Unfortunately, those 18 guys who don't abide by the virtues of Ninja are not easy to fool. Not only are they physically strong, they have also practiced the Lightning Chakra mode to the extreme, and have evolved three special types of Lightning Chakra. They are all double S-level powerhouses.

Coupled with the eighteen people's coordinated attack mode and their unpatience-based fighting style, it would be a headache even if I were to face them now.

"It's good to be able to skip school."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but Nara Shikamaru felt that the problem was even bigger.

"Ningji, is this the new student that was tricked here from Konoha?"

At this time, a burly young man jumped out of the lake and landed next to Hyuga Neji, looking at Nara Shikamaru and others.

"Yes, Senior Kisame, they are outstanding students brought from Konoha by Master Hao, and they all have great potential."

Hyuga Neji nodded, indicating that these newcomers had great potential.

But to Kisame, it sounded like these newcomers were very tough and could be dealt with as much as they wanted.

“You are welcome to attend the courses I offer in the future.”

Showing his sharp teeth, Hoshigaki Kisame is very optimistic about these little guys and is sure they can play with them for a long time.

"I still have to take them to arrange dormitories so as not to disturb Kisame-senpai's teaching."

After looking at the two people who had already walked away, Hyuga Neji said something and led everyone forward quickly.

“Can I choose my own courses in the academy?”

Nara Shikamaru remained calm and asked again, having heard a key point from the man's words just now.

The person said that he would participate in the course, which means that he could choose not to participate.

Is it a choice that can be made independently?

“In elite colleges, in addition to some required basic courses, students can also choose some elective courses to improve themselves based on their own foundation and strengths.

At the same time, these courses also have credits, which are very important in school. They can be used to exchange for the secret ninjutsu you want to learn, or the transplantation of bloodline limits, etc.

While in college, it is best to earn as many credits as possible to exchange for what you want. Otherwise, after graduation, you can only exchange them from the village with merit points, which is much more difficult.

Although the educational methods of our elite academy are a bit harsh, the resources we have are top-notch, and the consumable resources are free.

And since the establishment of the college, no one has died in teaching, so you don’t have to worry.”

At the end, Hyuga Neji said something comforting, but just as he finished his words, screams like pigs being slaughtered came from the woods shrouded in thick fog not far away, making everyone shiver and instinctively turn their heads to look.

"That was Senior Zabuza's class. He is proficient in the Mist Hidden Technique and the Silent Killing Technique. He is the best assassin in the academy."

Hyuga Neji explained again that he was very familiar with this and had gone to take classes there many times before.

Senior Zabuza's water jutsu is very powerful. Not only has he transformed his water attribute training, but after fusing it with natural energy, even the Byakugan is unable to see through it. I was only able to see through it after awakening the Rinnegan.

In addition, Senior Zabuza is the only one in the Hidden Cloud Village who has inherited the secret technique of the Mutan Buddha statue from Lord Hao, and his combat power is very strong.

Not to mention the boys and girls at the back who were about to collapse, Tamura Hao, who was being dragged away by Mei Terumi in front, was quite helpless.

"Xiao Mingming, just say whatever you want to say. We have known each other for so many years, there is nothing we can't say."

He could see that this crazy girl must be worried about something, and her behavior today was somewhat abnormal.

"I want you to marry me."

Mei Terumi hesitated for a moment, then finally spoke, her pretty fair face blushing.

Sister Tsunade had talked to her before, and she felt that what she said made sense. If she wanted to take revenge on this bastard, marrying him was the best option.

Then you can suppress it yourself and beat your child with a legitimate reason.

Besides, she is almost 30 years old, and she doesn't want to be called a leftover fighter. After counting everyone, this big bastard is the only one she can look at.

At least handsome enough!

"why?"

Tian Cun Hao knew that this girl had bad intentions.

"Why? You bullied me like that, don't you want to take responsibility? Do you want to abandon me after having sex with me?"

She instantly turned dark, and Mei Terumi reached out and grabbed someone's neck, as if she wanted to strangle him to death.

"Don't be so ambiguous. I just shocked you a few times and knocked a few lumps on your head. And you were the one who was looking for trouble. Who can you blame for your lack of strength?"

Tian Cun Hao doesn't think he did anything wrong, and he will severely punish anyone who dares to come and cause trouble.

Also, I can't just marry you because you say so. I, Tian, ​​am a hero of Yunyin. I am a respectable person and I need to maintain my reputation.

"I strangle you!"

Mei Terumi was really angry and pinched hard with her palms, but unfortunately her strength was only enough for massage on Tamura Hao.

"What happened to them?"

Looking at the two people fighting in front, the people behind were a little confused. They didn't understand why they suddenly started fighting when they were fine before.

"You'll get used to it later."

Hyuga Neji was no longer surprised. Senior Ming was moody and there was no pattern to him. He might be smiling at you one second and become cold and cruel the next.

"Senior Neji, can those students really bear so many harsh courses? I mean, will their mental consciousness collapse?"

Looking at the two people fighting in front of him, Nara Shikamaru suddenly thought of a serious problem.

The woman just now seemed very abnormal, mentally abnormal.

Judging from the teaching style here, I'm afraid many people will go crazy.

Everyone's complexion became paler, which is indeed a big problem.

"Mental trauma is also a kind of trauma. There are special illusion teachers in the academy who are responsible for the treatment of this area, and there are also corresponding subject courses. After the mental trauma, they will go there to receive treatment, and they will be able to recover."

Hyuga Neji said this very seriously. The village had already conducted detailed research in this area and found many mentally ill people to cooperate, and finally perfected this subject.

Essentially, mental and psychological trauma is not much different from physical trauma and both can be healed.

And the inner will of those who have been cured will become extremely strong.

Of course, their academy itself will try its best to avoid examples of mental breakdown. After each training session, they will provide psychological counseling and use corresponding methods to relax.

After all, this is an academy, not the base of some evil organization.

But this firm attitude made Nara Shikamaru feel even worse. The other party's meaning was very straightforward. He did have a mental breakdown, but it was all cured.

“Is the food at school good?”

Akimichi Choji, who had been silent the whole time, asked. He had heard before that this was a closed academy, and they could only go home for two days off a week. The rest of the time they had to stay here, with food and accommodation provided.

He doesn't care much about other things, but he has to ask about eating.

"Our Elite Academy is top-notch in every aspect. The chef of the cafeteria is invited from the Food Entertainment Company. He is the best in the entire ninja world and is proficient in all the food dishes in the Food Entertainment Company. There are hundreds of food dishes available every day, and we guarantee that there will be no duplicates within a month."

Hyuga Neji still seemed very confident. Their elite academy was impeccable except for the strict teaching methods.

And as long as you adapt to the intensity of teaching, you will like it here. It will only be a little difficult at the beginning.

"yeah!"

Akimichi Choji's eyes lit up. As long as the food was provided, he was not afraid of any hardship or fatigue.

“Do I have to graduate at 18?”

Nara Shikamaru asked another question, is there anything special about this setting?
“Before the age of eighteen is a critical period for physical growth and development, and it is even more important to lay a solid foundation, which requires the consumption of more resources. At the same time, the more resources are consumed, the more potential will be enhanced, and the higher the heights that can be achieved in the future will be.

It is difficult to use external things to enhance your potential after you turn 18, and staying in the academy to get resources will not have any effect, so you can only graduate. "

Hyuga Neji was very patient and explained the mystery clearly, which is also something that must be understood.

"Enhance your potential."

Nara Shikamaru has some understanding of this. Potential can indeed be improved through external objects. For example, their Nara family has special secret medicines, and the Akimichi family and the Yamanaka family also have them.

However, it seems that the one in the Hidden Cloud Village is more complete and advanced. In this case, it is not a loss to join this elite academy.

The prerequisite is to be able to stick to it.
