Winning means gaining combat experience, losing means getting killed.

……

"No, this can't go on!" Jiraiya shouted.

Their condition has already declined significantly, and if they cannot defeat their opponents sooner or later, they will perish here.

So engrossed in the battle, they had forgotten about the presence of their instructor.

"Orochimaru!" he suddenly shouted.

A hint of confusion flashed in Orochimaru's eyes, but he quickly understood.

Jiraiya broke free of his opponent and charged headlong into the bandit leader who was fighting Tsunade.

Almost at the same time, Orochimaru also charged towards Tsunade.

"Oh, take them down one by one?" Lianye murmured softly.

Orochimaru used his snake-like hands to wrap around the leader of the bandits' feet, and with a sudden pull, the latter lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Just as he was about to get up, Jiraiya plopped down on his back.

"Tsunade, hurry up!"

Without hesitation, Tsunade focused all her power into her fist.

"boom!"

"Click——"

The fist slammed solidly into the head of the bandit leader, producing a clear cracking sound.

The bandit leader instantly lost consciousness, and his crimson eyes behind his sunglasses began to gradually lose focus.

"We did it!" Jiraiya shouted happily.

Orochimaru also smiled.

Their smiles soon faded as two angry bandits approached them.

"Damn it, let's fight them!" Tsunade roared and charged forward.

Jiraiya and Orochimaru immediately rushed to their aid upon seeing this.

Three against two, the advantage is on my side!

……

The battle ended, and the woods were a scene of devastation.

The three children slumped to the ground, covered in mud and blood, panting heavily, their chakra completely depleted.

There were no cheers, only the exhaustion and lingering fear of surviving a disaster.

Lian Ye then slowly walked over, her gaze sweeping over the battlefield and the three disheveled figures.

"See that? This is real combat."

"Jiraiya, your underestimation of your opponent resulted in you being the most seriously injured!"

"Tsunade, your monstrous strength is meaningless if you can't hit the enemy."

"Orochimaru, your schemes are laughable in the face of absolute experience."

"And your most fatal mistake was that you only thought of helping each other at the very end..."

Lian Ye looked at the three people with their heads down and continued, "Remember today's lesson: every victory is earned with your life on the line."

"By the way, where is your employer?" He looked around but did not see his obese employer.

Three people: "???"

……

Several kilometers away, the employer of this mission was sprinting away.

I will never let a child act as a bodyguard again in my life; they are completely unreliable!

If nothing unexpected happens, the three of them have already been killed by the bandits.

If he hadn't run, he would have been killed long ago.

Chapter 335 Lian Ye is a good teacher

"Is this how Konoha protects me?"

The employer was found by Lian Ye and the others, his fat trembling with anger.

He assumed the Jonin leader had disappeared and the three Genin had been killed.

I ran several kilometers in one go, and this is the most tiring I've ever been in my life.

He discovered that the bandits had been killed, and all that running around for nothing—it would be strange if he wasn't angry.

He planned to go back and post pictures of the Lotus Night Squad, warning everyone he knew not to hire them.

The service was terrible, and I felt completely unsafe.

Especially that Jonin who led the team, he was invisible the whole time, I don't know where he went.

Bad review, absolutely a bad review!

"I'm sorry, boss, I'll give you a 1% discount on your payment this time," Lian Ye said with a forced smile.

These days, money is hard to earn and life is tough; even ninjas face immense job pressure.

Sometimes, a smile is necessary, as it affects the village's reputation.

He was too busy controlling the bandits to notice that his employer had run away.

Orochimaru and the other two kept their heads down and remained silent.

This situation wouldn't have happened if they had cooperated earlier.

"Hmph, who do you think you are, offering only a 1% discount?" the employer scoffed. "You made me travel that long distance, you should at least offer a 2% discount!"

“No problem, boss!” Lian Ye agreed without hesitation.

When the employer saw that he agreed so readily, he knew he had asked for too little.

However, he didn't dwell on it; he was determined to give it a bad review anyway.

No amount of money can help!

At this moment, Lianye had no idea that her team's reputation was about to be ruined.

"Boss, let's get going!" Lian Ye said with a smile, "We'll be arriving at the mission location soon."

Now that Tsunade and the other two have gained valuable experience, there's no need to waste any more time here.

After a simple bandage, they set off again.

He wanted to return to the village to rest after completing his mission.

We wasted a lot of time along the way.

The team has a set number of tasks each month, and they can rest once they complete the minimum requirement.

Of course, you can also take on missions if you're short on money.

Renya planned to spend the remaining two weeks relaxing, while Tsunade and the other two could take on D-rank missions in the village.

It can both meet the standards and make money.

The key is that there is no danger, and I don't need to follow him around all the time.

After all, what danger could there be in tasks like weeding, cleaning up trash, playing with dogs, catching cats, and babysitting?

It's just providing job opportunities for newly graduated genin.

After all, they lack the capability to complete C-level missions and can only rely on D-level missions to make a living.

Not everyone is a genius; most people can only reach the level of Chunin in their entire lives.

Those who lack talent can only remain genin for life.

Jonin are ultimately a minority.

The proportion is most likely only one-thirtieth of that of a Chunin.

D-rank and C-rank missions are for newly graduated genin and for ninjas without talent.

"Boss, our mission is complete."

Without anyone causing trouble, they successfully delivered their employer to his destination.

"Well, here's your payment for the task." The employer handed Lian Ye a money bag. "As for discounts, that's unnecessary."

A 2% discount is practically useless.

Besides, he also needed to avoid Lei Lianye's team, whom he knew.

It wouldn't be good to get another discount.

How can I then justify telling my friends about Lianye's irresponsible behavior?

"Haha, boss is so generous." Lian Ye laughed as she took the money bag, completely unaware of the seriousness of the matter.

"Phew, finally finished." Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that a few more powerful bandits might appear on the way.

His injuries were the most severe among the three; if they encountered enemies again, he would only be a burden to his comrades.

"Idiot, you were so reckless." Tsunade couldn't help but mutter.

"I know I was wrong, and I won't do it again next time," Jiraiya replied weakly.

Who knew the bandits who suddenly appeared would be so strong?

Normally, there wouldn't be bandits in such remote places, and even if there were, they should be ordinary people!

Fortunately, I've learned my lesson and won't be careless again in the future.

“Our enemy this time is indeed very powerful.” Orochimaru’s eyes flashed.

For some reason, he always felt that someone was targeting them from behind...

Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked at Lian Ye, who was walking at the front of the group. His intuition told him that this matter was inextricably linked to Teacher Lian Ye.

Because the two bandits held back against them at the last moment, as if they were being controlled.

Otherwise, their injuries would not have been as simple as just getting a few cuts!

"Orochimaru, what are you looking at?" Jiraiya asked curiously.

Orochimaru sighed helplessly when he saw Jiraiya's dumbfounded expression.

"nothing."

Even if I explained, this idiot wouldn't understand, so I might as well not waste my breath.

Seeing this, Jiraiya scratched his head in confusion, wondering what Orochimaru was up to this time.

"It hurts so much!"

The scratching motion was so vigorous that it accidentally aggravated the wound on his back, causing him to wince in pain.

"Fool."

"idiot."

Jiraiya: "..."

"You can split the money," Lianye said, tossing the money bag to Orochimaru.

This time he didn't intend to withhold their pay; the amount was negligible for a Jonin.

It would be better to divide it all among the three people and then use the money to treat their injuries.

Especially Jiraiya, the little money he earned might not even be enough to cover his medical expenses.

"Teacher Renya, don't you want it?" Orochimaru stared blankly at the money bag in his hand, his eyes filled with surprise.

The sun comes out in the west?

Teacher Renye not only didn't withhold their pay, but gave it all to them!
