"You dare!"

Upon hearing Asahi's words, Tei was utterly furious at this moment.

He had initially thought that Asahi and his group had come to kill him for money or some sense of justice. However, he never expected that Asahi would use him as a sparring partner for his disciples.

Who was Tei? He was a genius from the Iwagakure village!

Even among the Explosion unit's Jonin in Iwagakure, he was one of the best.

Since his promotion to Jonin, nobody dared to underestimate him.

Now, he found himself reduced to being a whetstone for Asahi's disciples, and he couldn't stand it!

Asahi impatiently glanced at him. "Are you going to choose or not? If you don't, I'll let them all attack at once!"

"Fine, fine, fine!"

Tei snorted with frustration. "You're so arrogant. Today, I'll show you what it feels like to be defeated."

Yes, Tei knew he couldn't beat Asahi. But he held no regard for a mere kid.

"I choose this little girl."

Tei grinned maliciously at Konan. "Kid, don't blame me when you're dead. If you do, blame your teacher!"

Indeed, Tei was infuriated, but he chose the softest-looking one among Asahi's disciples - Konan.

But was Konan really as soft as she seemed?

"You despicable scoundrel! You don't even know who will win yet!"

Konan retorted, refusing to tolerate Tei's bad attitude.

Seeing that Tei had made his choice, Asahi told Konan to perform well and stepped back with Yahiko and Nagato, creating some space for the two.

Yahiko was still shouting at Tei, asking him why he didn't choose him, as if he was scared!

But Tei, already an experienced trickster, blatantly ignored him, leaving Yahiko frustrated, feeling like he had punched into cotton.

On the battlefield, Asahi and Yahiko, along with Nagato, had already withdrawn, leaving only Konan and Tei, the rogue ninja from Iwagakure, to face each other.

The two locked eyes, their auras rising steadily.

However, neither of them made a move. In a high-level duel, it's all about finding the opponent's weakness and delivering a deadly strike.

For Tei, a seasoned veteran of the battlefield, and Konan, who had experienced rigorous training, maintaining their composure and searching for openings was second nature.

They continued to lock eyes coldly, but as the saying goes, old habits die hard.

Konan's youthful vigor couldn't completely suppress the wily Tei's presence.

Sweat dripped from their foreheads, causing Yahiko and Nagato to nervously wipe their brows.

"We can't wait any longer. If we keep waiting, Konan's momentum will completely decline," Konan thought to herself.

Regrettably, Konan's fierce gaze couldn't overpower Tei's composure.

Seeing this, Konan knew she couldn't afford to wait any longer. She quickly formed hand seals.

"Shikigami no Mai: Paper Shuriken!"

In an instant, a paper sheet transformed into a shuriken and flew toward Tei.

Tei chuckled lightly, thinking, "Youngsters will always be impulsive; they can't control their emotions."

However, Tei's actions were far from slow. With a slight sidestep, he easily evaded Konan's technique.

Konan knew that a single paper shuriken wouldn't harm Tei. So, immediately after the attack, she swiftly formed hand seals again.

As expected, in the next second, Tei suddenly appeared beside Konan.

"Explosive Release: Earthquake Fist!"

Tei's iron fist instantly struck Konan's abdomen.

Boom!

An explosion resounded, and Konan, who had been struck by Tei, seemingly exploded.

However, Tei's expression remained stern. Instead of delight, he was closely observing his surroundings.

As it turned out, the Konan that had exploded instantly transformed into scattered paper sheets.

"A paper clone? Interesting. Did you use this jutsu when I sidestepped earlier?"

Tei mumbled, significantly increasing his respect for Konan.

Not for anything else, but because of Konan's combat awareness.

Suddenly, Tei raised his head abruptly, only to find Konan hovering in the air.

A pair of enormous wings made of paper flapped behind her.

"Shikigami no Mai: Flying Technique"

At this moment, Tei was taken aback. In the ninja world, a ninja with the ability to fly was almost invincible.

Furthermore, he could be considered severely lacking in aerial combat capabilities.

What terrible luck! He had initially thought he'd encountered an easy target, but it turned out to be his natural predator.

Tei now only hoped that Konan didn't possess too much offensive power, or else he would have to fight for his life.

At this moment, Konan, too, was soaked in sweat for no apparent reason.

Her master had already briefed her on Tei's information, but she had never imagined that Tei's Explosive Release would be so potent.

If she hadn't been cautious, just a slight graze from his attack would have either killed her or left her gravely injured.

She realized that she must avoid close-quarters combat with him at all costs. That thought echoed silently in her mind.

"Hey, youngster, are you that timid? If you have the guts, come down and face me!"

Tei taunted Konan from the ground, hoping to anger her and make her relinquish her aerial advantage.

However, Konan remained unfazed by Tei's words. Hovering in the air, her hands quickly formed seals.

"Shikigami no Mai: Paper Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

In an instant, countless shurikens flew toward Tei on the ground.

This jutsu, a transformation of the Third Hokage's shuriken shadow clone technique, overwhelmed Tei on the ground. He had no escape.

Upon witnessing Konan's formidable jutsu, Tei didn't dare to underestimate it. His hands swiftly formed seals.

"Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"

As Tei pressed his hands onto the ground, a massive wall of earth surged up, shielding his entire body.

The paper shurikens flying through the air all landed on the earth wall, dealing no harm to Tei.

Konan, however, remained composed. Her hands continued to form seals.

"Dance of Paper Forms: Paper Spear."

In an instant, a paper spear shot forth.

Meanwhile, Tei, who was hiding beneath the earth wall, had no visibility of the incoming paper spear.

Due to Tei's misjudgment, this high-powered jutsu, which Konan hadn't yet mastered, failed to hit its target directly, all thanks to Tei's incorrect choice of defense.

The immensely penetrating spear almost pierced through the earth wall in an instant.

Its colossal power remained undiminished, but fortunately, Tei had some awareness due to the earth wall obstructing the attack.

He dodged with all his might, narrowly evading a fatal strike.

However, even so, the paper spear left a long gash on his arm, with blood continuously trickling down.

Tei endured the intense pain, gritting his teeth as he gazed at Konan in the sky.

At this moment, he truly felt exceptionally frustrated. The majority of his abilities were centered around the Explosive Release. 

In his everyday encounters, a single punch from him would make his opponents explode instantly, eliminating the need for him to learn other ninjutsu.

But now, his Explosive Release posed no threat whatsoever to Konan in the sky. This directly reduced his effectiveness from a solid ten to a mere four.

He could only rely on his relatively less proficient Earth Release and Lightning Release to attack Konan, and even then, the limitations had significantly increased.

Of course, this was a common issue for most kekkei genkai users. While their powerful bloodline abilities allowed them to dominate, once countered by an opponent, their own threat level diminished greatly.
