The days of being a puppeteer in Konoha

Chapter 75 Points System
Seeing that the attention of the little ninjas had been attracted, Ebisu was very proud. He opened an exquisite fan with a snap and continued:
"The first thing I have to mention is of course the highest level of reward - personal guidance from the Hokage!"

"Yes, you heard it right. And it's not three or four thousand, not one or two thousand, just 998!"

"As long as you gather 998 points, the Sandaime Hokage, who is known as the strongest Hokage and the Ninja Doctor, will personally provide two hours of special guidance!"

The young ninjas couldn't help but gasp when they heard this, making the air around them even hotter.

This point system is really awesome!
Even the busy Hokage personally participated in it.

Many children from the ninja clan thought that the point system was just a small trick to fool civilian students, and some of them were dismissive of it.

But after hearing this, they couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and prick up their ears, trying to find out more relevant information.

However, some people were tactless and poured cold water on it.

"Everyone, stop dreaming. I just managed to squeeze over to take a look, and I found out that it's not that easy to get the points!"

"It seems that in a class, the teacher can only give out a maximum of ten points."

"It's not that easy to compete with the whole class for those ten points!"

"I guess in the end it will be dominated by the students with good grades..."

This time the little ninjas had different expressions.

A few good students couldn't help but smile and were secretly delighted.

However, most students with average or average grades are still a little frustrated and feel that they will not be eligible for the rewards.

Fortunately, Ebisu quickly fanned himself and shook his head, saying:
"No, no, my friend, you only know one side of the story."

"Because it is also written in the announcement that in addition to students with outstanding performance, students who have made progress can also receive points as rewards."

"So no matter whether you are a good student or a bad student, as long as you study hard, you will definitely get recognition and rewards from the teacher."

"If that doesn't work out, the school will also hold various point-based activities in the future. As long as you actively participate, you can also get a lot of point rewards."

The little ninjas then began to smile, and suddenly they felt endless energy in their hearts.

Students with average or below average grades are all working hard to study, striving to show their teachers their progress in class and on exams.

Students with good grades are very interested in various point-earning activities and are ready to show their talents in them and earn more points.

“So, it’s not difficult to get points.”

"On the contrary, I think the biggest challenge is how to restrain yourself from exchanging other prizes while accumulating points."

Following this topic, Ebisu continued to introduce,
“For example, there are many mentoring projects in the awards, which are very attractive.”

"400 points for jonin guidance, 200 points for special jonin guidance, and 100 points for chunin guidance."

"For us ninja school students, perhaps this kind of reward is more cost-effective."

"And the ninjas who sign up for this program are not simple."

"Just the ones I remember include Namikaze Minato, Sarutobi Shinnosuke, Nara Shikaku, Akimichi Choza, Yamanaka Inoichi, Inuzuka Jaw..."

Everyone couldn't help but swallow as they listened to Ebisu saying the familiar ninja names like he was reading out the dishes.

"Can we really get guidance from these talented ninjas?"

"Ebisu you are kidding me?"

"Of course not!"

Ebisu snapped his fan shut with a hint of dissatisfaction and said, "Although they don't teach specific ninjutsu."

"But it is definitely worth the price of admission to listen to the practical experience of these battle-hardened ninjas, or to have them correct our incorrect movements and habits one-on-one."

"You have to know that Namikaze Jonin personally traveled to all the ninja clans to put together such a luxurious lineup."

"Of course, we also have to thank these ninja clans for their selfless sponsorship. Not only did they let the best ninjas teach us, they also provided their own specialties as redeemable rewards."

"For example, the Akimichi clan's secret military ration pills, the Nara clan's precious medicinal herbs and medicinal wines, the Yamanaka clan's rare flowers and perfumes, etc..."

"Even businesses under the ninja clan, such as Ninju Mandiantang, barbecue restaurants, and meatball restaurants, have sponsored the school and provided various coupons as rewards."

"But these goodies are limited in quantity. If you find something you like, you should hurry up and save up points..."

Many ninja clan members then realized that they were also involved in this plan.

Seeing that the classmates around them started to praise them, they also felt proud and their little heads were raised high.

And those ninja students who did not hear their own names also felt an inexplicable sense of shame.

But Ebisu wasn't finished yet.

"Don't forget Mr. Hideki who came up with this point system."

Ebisu looked up in admiration and said,
"As both a puppetry teacher and the owner of a toy workshop, he has prepared a lot of prizes for us to redeem."

"Like various limited edition collectible toys, mechanical ninja tools that can be used to achieve unexpected victories, and various pocket puppet beast parts."

"Even if it's the Pocket Puppetmon itself, whether you are a student of the Puppetry Class or not, as long as you collect 648 points, you can get a Puppetmon that belongs to you alone!"

"Just as the smart, gentle and handsome teacher Hideki once said before the end of the last class..."

"Do you want my prize? If you want, I can give it all to you. Go and redeem it!"

"I wrote down all the prizes on the redemption form!"

The little ninjas were going crazy after hearing this.

They were too lazy to read the specific content of the announcement and just dispersed.

He either ran to the classroom to study hard, or hummed and laughed in the playground to practice, unwilling to waste the next minute or second.

Thus, a small revolution that started from the Ninja School finally kicked off...

"Teacher, how was my performance?"

A moment later, in a dark corner, Ebisu was rubbing his hands and asked.

Then Hideki's slightly smiling voice sounded:
"Very good, these ten points are well worth it."

"But you don't have to brag about me so much. I won't give you more points no matter how much you brag."

"I really mean it..."

"I appreciate your kindness, but the focus should still be on emphasizing those ninjas who have made contributions, so that everyone can be more grateful to them."

Hideki said meaningfully,

"You have to know that this project doesn't have much funding, and almost everyone is helping out for free. The only way we can repay them is to say more good things about them."

"Well, a new student has arrived. It's time for you to perform again, Ebisu..."
