Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

Chapter 101 The Sparring Ends

Qu Feng scratched his head. Although Yue Ji was quite strong, at least ranking in the top three among the five, he was just average in his opinion. He thought Yue Ji was inferior to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Winning or losing isn't the goal; the theme here is peaceful coexistence between villages. If you want to win, I can let you have it."

Yueji chuckled softly, then shook her head: "That's not necessary. Let's have a serious spar, just like with Wu."

Qu Feng nodded. Since they had made the request, as the host, he naturally had to comply.

However, if he were to use his full strength against Wu, Yueji probably wouldn't last more than a few minutes.

MoonTraces struck first, spewing out a continuous stream of water that formed a pool several meters around him.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique".

The water dragon shot came whistling through the air, but was easily torn to shreds by the wind-controlling crystal dragon.

Yueji was not surprised to see this, after all, she had just witnessed the power of the Crystal Dragon.

But the fact that the crystal dragon hasn't disappeared after so long suggests that there must be other changes, and we need to be careful.

Close combat is definitely out of the question; you'll die a horrible death.

If ninjutsu is used appropriately to counter the wind-taking technique, there might still be a glimmer of hope.

"Wind Release - Hurricane Tornado!" A fierce gust of wind was exhaled from Yueji's mouth, which then transformed into a tornado and began to spin violently!

Then Moontrack poured water into it, forming a waterspout.

But when Qu Feng clapped his hands, countless vines burst from the ground and soared into the sky! They intertwined and connected, shattering the eye of the hurricane into pieces.

Just as the hurricane gradually subsided, Qu Feng discovered that Yue Ji was nowhere to be seen. Even after using Fire Release ninjutsu to dry the water, he still couldn't find Yue Ji.

However, a thin mist appeared on the field and gradually thickened.

"The technique of concealing oneself in mist? That's perfect, I'm too lazy to spar any longer."

Yueji thought he could use the Mist Concealment Technique to ambush Qufeng, but he didn't know that Qufeng also possessed the Cloud Escape Technique.

He gently exhaled a breath of cloud, so faint it was almost invisible to the naked eye, but this wisp of cloud quickly filled the fog of the entire area.

Using his senses, Qu Feng had accurately located Yue Ji's position. Since he no longer intended to continue the sparring, Qu Feng decided to finish the fight quickly.

More than a dozen crystals emerged from the ground, intersecting and firmly binding the moon's path.

Then, using the Mirror Dragon, he violently slammed Feng out of the arena!

Before Yueji could even react, she was already sitting on the sidelines.

When Jing saw the moon's trail fly out of the arena, he went in and announced the victory of the wind-taking team.

Although Wu, Shamen, and Ai were very reluctant, they still offered their congratulations.

Meanwhile, Yueji sat on the ground pondering why the Mist Concealment Technique had been discovered.

"Haha, this sparring session was fantastic! It showed me the vigor of the new generation of ninjas! I hope you will all dedicate yourselves to maintaining peace in the ninja world in the future."

Hashirama was clearly in a good mood; his student had won first place in the sparring match, and he was naturally overjoyed.

The five people below the stage responded to what the Hokage said, explaining that the injuries they had sustained in the battle had long been healed by medical ninjutsu.

The Mizukage, who was sitting to the side, slowly said, "It's getting late, so I'll go back to rest now. Please forgive me, Hokage."

Hashirama waved his hands repeatedly: "It is indeed getting late. Someone! Send the Mizukage back to rest, and prepare some food."

The ninja in charge of receiving them immediately accepted the order and escorted the Mizukage back to his resting place.

Apart from the Hokage, the other Kage were all somewhat dissatisfied with their chosen successors during this afternoon's sparring session.

But if they knew that Qu Feng's strength was only slightly weaker than that of a Kage-level cultivator, I wonder what their expressions would be.

After the sparring session, it was already time to eat, so everyone dispersed to find something to eat.

Yueji wanted to ask Qufeng how he saw through him, but felt it would be presumptuous, so she didn't ask.

"Tori, you were amazing today! Even the Shadow's guards couldn't beat you!" Zhili said with a bright smile, putting her arm around Tori's.

"Fortunately, they weren't using their full strength; they were all holding back."

Chiri made a face: "Tch, aren't you the same? You didn't use Cloud Release the whole time."

"I used it, you just didn't notice."

Reminded by Toki, Chiri searched her memory again: "It's the last cloud of mist, right?"

Toru nodded and then walked towards the Hokage's office.

Zhili doesn't have anything to do right now, so he thought he'd go and see what happens, maybe he'll even run into Ying.

Pushing open the door, only Hashirama and Tobirama were inside, both wearing smiles, clearly very satisfied with today's wind gathering.

Tobirama patted Torifu's shoulder with his large hand: "You kid, you're really hiding your true strength."

"No way! I did my best when we went to capture the Six-Tails with Lord Tobirama!"

Then the two looked at each other and smiled.

Hashirama sat in his chair, his smile undiminished: "You did a great job in today's sparring, greatly boosting the morale of Konoha!"

While the wind couldn't see the Kage's expressions, Hashirama could. On the stands, the Tsuchikage and Kazekage's faces were alternating between pale and flushed, as if they had eaten something bad.

The Raikage, however, couldn't see clearly because it was too dark.

In short, only Hashirama was smiling throughout, occasionally chatting with a few Kage.

"I said the winner would get a reward, but I haven't chosen one yet. I'll send it to you later."

Qu Feng had no objections, but was also a little curious about what his master would prepare as a reward.

After Chiri and Torifu chatted with the two leaders in the Hokage's office for a while, Kagami also came in.

The main purpose was to report on today's work issues, but Master Torikami had to deal with some matters, so he pulled Jiri away.

"It'll be dark soon, you should go home quickly, or you'll get lost tonight."

Zhili nodded and returned a bright smile to Yiqufeng: "Okay, I'll head back now, bye-bye."

After a hard day's work, Qu Feng felt that this was even more tiring than when he was on a mission outside.

After returning home, Qu Feng went to check on the old hen.

The feathers seem brighter in color than before, but I don't know if it's just my imagination from the wind.

Qingyun and Liufeng seem to still be out playing and haven't returned yet.

However, the food has already been fed, so it will eat on its own when it gets hungry again after we get back.

After an afternoon of fighting, I was covered in dirt, so I immediately took off my clothes and went to take a shower to wash off all the dirt and grime.

The Five Kage Summit is pretty much over. In another day or two, the Kage will be returning to their villages.

After all, if they don't return to the village for a long time, official documents will pile up for approval, and they will have to worry about whether someone will try to usurp their power.

It was only then that Qu Feng remembered that he had drawn a vial of Wu's blood, which could activate the puppet.

But I'm really tired today, so I'll leave it for tomorrow.

Chapter 102 The Caged Bird

It was only then that Qu Feng remembered that he had drawn a vial of Wu's blood, which could activate the puppet.

But I'm really tired today, so I'll leave it for tomorrow.

The next morning, I was woken up by the system again, perhaps because the Five Kage Summit had not officially ended yet.

The system's reward has yet to arrive.

However, there's no rush to get the wind, since it's already a done deal anyway.

Moreover, the Kage won't be staying in Konoha for more than a few days; they should be heading back to the village today or tomorrow.

As the highest leader of the village, many things require Shadow's permission to operate, and when they return, they will find mountains of documents piled up on their desks.

However, older figures like the Tsuchikage and Mizukage have begun to gradually delegate authority, allowing their successors to handle documents.

It does allow me to steal a moment of leisure.

Today, because there were outsiders in the village, I didn't practice my cultivation, so I took a day off.

It's a rare holiday, and Qu Feng hasn't decided how to spend it yet, but since there's nothing interesting at home anyway, he might as well wander around the village.

Perhaps due to the talks, there have been quite a few people on the streets these past few mornings, more than double the usual number.

Perhaps wanting to see what people from other villages were like, they got up early to stake out the area.

People greeted Qu Feng when they saw him, and news of Qu Feng winning the sparring match yesterday quickly spread throughout the village.

As a disciple of the Hokage, the villagers were quite interested in taking the wind, although most of the villagers were not ninjas.

We could only know of Qu Feng's strength from rumors, but this time it truly made everyone in the village realize just how powerful he was.

Qu Feng won the sparring match, and coupled with his gentle and humble nature, his reputation among the villagers improved even further, and everyone liked Qu Feng very much.

Seeing the villagers' enthusiasm, Qu Feng was at a loss for what to do and could only return the gifts one by one.

He encountered several ninjas with whom he had previously worked on missions, and they talked to him for a long time before letting him go.

In short, I have one feeling right now: being too famous isn't necessarily a good thing.

It took almost half an hour just to say hello along the way, and it took almost an hour to walk just one short street.

Finally, they reached a relatively quiet area, and Qu Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

Then they ran into a familiar face, Hinata Nozomi, accompanied by a man who looked very much like him.

But it was clear from the wind that the person seemed to be deliberately half a step behind Xizhen, and his expression was also somewhat humble.

Qu Feng had a rough idea of ​​what was going on, and after thinking for a moment, he went to meet him.

Upon seeing Xizhen, I wanted to chat with her to build a better relationship, since I still had my eye roll up.

Good morning, Heejin.

Qu Feng was the first to speak and greet them.

When Xizhen heard the sound, she realized that Qufeng had arrived, and her previously annoyed face immediately broke into a smile.
