Chapter 298, Examination Rules for the Second Session

Minato took the microphone, his expression turning serious.

"The second test will be held in the vast forest behind you—the 44th Training Ground, also known as the Forest of Death."

The exam rules are as follows:

The sound of the water gate clearly echoed throughout the stadium.

"First, each candidate will be randomly given an identification bracelet before entering the forest, which will be printed with one of the three attributes: 'Heaven,' 'Earth,' or 'Human.'"

"Second, the conditions for passing the level: Within five days, you must collect three different types of bracelets and successfully reach the tower in the center of the forest to activate the barrier at the top of the tower."

The genin below the stage immediately began to whisper among themselves.

"Collect all three? That means we have to steal other people's bracelets?" Sasaki Yun of Kumogakure clenched his fists, recalling the Raikage's instructions, a bloodthirsty glint flashing in his eyes.

"Not only that."

Minato smiled slightly and continued, "Besides snatching them from other examinees, there are also hidden supply points and specific locations scattered throughout the forest. In these locations, you also have a chance to find unclaimed bracelets."

"And please note."

Minato raised a finger, his tone becoming more forceful.

"This exam uses a point system. The number of bracelets you receive is not only your ticket to pass, but also the key to your final ranking. Any extra bracelets will be converted into your personal points."

"Within the forest, candidates are allowed to form alliances freely, regardless of the village, and are permitted to set traps. This is an all-out war that will test your character, strategy, and strength."

Upon hearing about the unlimited villages and the points system, the genin from each village instantly became complicated in their eyes.

This is not only a test of strength, but also a test of humanity and team cohesion.

"To ensure the exam is both fun and fair."

Looking at the candidates below the stage with their various expressions, Minato dropped the final and most important rule.

"Inside the forest, we will maintain the original poisonous insects, ferocious beasts, and treacherous terrain. Furthermore, we will utilize environmental regulation technology to randomly create dynamic obstacles in certain areas, such as localized strong winds, the spread of toxic fog, and even the reinforcement of swamps. More points will be awarded in these areas."

"besides……"

Minato glanced at Nishikawa Tetsu standing to the side, and the two exchanged a knowing look.

"We also deployed thirty mechanical puppets that were discarded by the Konoha Science Research Institute."

"These puppets possess basic patrol, search, and non-lethal attack capabilities. Defeating them will also earn you points, or... the 'bracelets' they carry."

"Also, Dean Orochimaru has generously sponsored some new types of puppets. Defeating these new puppets will earn you a large amount of hidden points. But be careful not to overextend yourself, as these new puppets are not something one or two genin can handle."

"What?!"

"A new type of puppet?"

"This isn't an exam, it's a battle royale!"

The candidates below the stage were in an uproar.

Faced with these outrageously complex rules and perilous environment, even the most arrogant genin couldn't help but gasp in shock.

At Nishikawa Tetsu's repeated prompting, Minato sighed inwardly and continued:

"Now, please look at the identification wristbands in your hands."

Minato pointed to the black metal wristbands that the staff below were distributing, a hint of helplessness flashing in his azure eyes, but he still maintained his composure.

"As mentioned earlier, the first rule is that each candidate will be randomly given an identification bracelet with one of the three attributes of heaven, earth, or man before entering the forest."

"However, besides serving as a pass for customs clearance, this bracelet itself is also a showcase of the latest civilian technological achievements of our Konoha Science Research Institute."

Minato raised his wrist, on which he was also wearing a demonstration bracelet.

He tapped the dial lightly, and the large screen displayed his dial's display, showing several sets of fluctuating data.

As he demonstrated, he mentally complained: "That money-grubbing guy Che even squeezed in a commercial segment from the Chunin Exams rules reading!"

Nishikawa Tetsu chuckled to himself, using the image of Saitama to defeat GG. He couldn't even imagine how well the sales would be after the official release.

Despite his frustration, Minato still displayed exceptional professionalism, reciting his prepared lines:

"As you all see, this Konoha Guardian series smart bracelet is not only stylish, lightweight and waterproof, but its built-in micro-sensor chip can monitor the wearer's heart rate, blood pressure, chakra reserves and fatigue index in real time."

"During the exam, if your vital signs drop to a dangerous threshold, the wristband will automatically send a red alert to the command center, and the medical team will immediately monitor your condition."

The tense expressions of the genin below the stage were slightly taken aback. Many of them curiously fiddled with the small black circle in their hands, and some even began to compare the data on the screen with each other.

"Not only that."

Minato took a deep breath and continued reciting the GG words that Nishikawa Tetsu had prepared:

"To ensure the absolute safety of all test takers, this wristband is equipped with a state-of-the-art high-precision positioning system. No matter where you are in the Death Forest, or even buried underground, as long as the wristband stays with you, the command center can accurately pinpoint your coordinates."

"Of course, this isn't just for exams. In the future civilian version, this bracelet will shed its exam attributes related to heaven, earth, and humanity, becoming an essential safety device for protecting the elderly, preventing children from getting lost, and for wilderness explorers! After this exam, pre-orders will open simultaneously at major electronics stores in Konoha. If you're interested, you can go and experience it."

Minato finished delivering this blatant advertisement in one breath, feeling like his face was about to freeze from smiling.

The village leaders and teachers in the audience looked at each other, and many of them twitched at the corners of their eyes.

Have the Leaf Village gone mad? In such a serious setting as the Chunin Exams, with tens of thousands of eyes watching, even the Daimyo is observing, and you're openly promoting your product?!

However, it cannot be denied that many people's eyes lit up with excitement upon hearing that it could monitor vital signs and pinpoint locations in real time.

If this thing is really as amazing as they say, then it's definitely a good thing!

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic."

Minato quickly wiped the salesman's smile off his face, his expression turning extremely serious, and steered the conversation back to the harsh exam rules.

"Besides monitoring and location tracking, this special exam-specific wristband has another crucial function—emergency call for help."

He pointed to a small red button on the side of the bracelet, his tone becoming low and dangerous.

"In the Forest of Death, if you encounter an insurmountable danger to your life, or decide to give up the exam, please press and hold this red button for three seconds."

"A special space-time magic formula is engraved inside the bracelet; once activated..."

Minato's figure blurred for a moment, and then a golden flash exploded at the edge of the podium.

"Whoosh!"

He appeared in mid-air a dozen meters away like a ghost, and then returned to his original position in the blink of an eye.

"I, Minato Namikaze, will use the Flying Thunder God Technique to instantly teleport to your side and take you out of the examination hall."

"But please remember!"

Minato's gaze swept across the entire area like a blade, and the aura of the yellow flash was released without any concealment, causing many genin to hold their breath instantly.

"Once you press this button, it means you have voluntarily forfeited this exam and admitted your failure. You will be immediately deemed unqualified and will lose your eligibility to be promoted to Chunin!"

"This is not only a distress signal, but also a declaration of withdrawal from the exam."

"During these five days, no one will interfere with your life or death except by pressing the button. Whether it's retrieving the bracelet or facing the beasts and traps in the forest, you can only rely on yourselves!"

"This is the real forest of death you are about to face."

"One last thing."

Minato raised his head and pointed to the huge transparent dome above him.

"Your every move in the forest will be broadcast live for the next five days."

"Although we don't have drones, we have excellent reconnaissance ninjas."

Minato smiled and pointed to the ninja hawks and various flying summons hovering above the arena, their claws strapped with miniature cameras.

"They will transmit your battle footage in real time to the three giant screens of this Konoha Dome."

"In other words..."

Minato's smile vanished, and he stared intently at all the examinees.

"Your courage, cowardice, wisdom, and folly will all be exposed before the eyes of the entire ninja world."

"This is the stage that Konoha has prepared for you."

"Now, all candidates, please proceed to the entrance and prepare to enter the examination room."

"Good luck to you all."
