I Can Become Stronger Just By Teaching

"Might Gai, you can only stop here this time," Hyūga Kento said with a stoic look.

Although he, Might Gai, is the second strongest Taijutsu master in his grade that he acknowledges, it is his destiny to lose here,

"Um, who are you?" Might Gai scratched his head and tried to remember the opponent in front of him but found that he couldn't remember it.

"Are you the Hyūga Kin?" Finally, Might Gai vaguely remembered what the invigilator had just said.

Hyūga Kento felt that Might Gai was humiliating himself. His fists clinched hard.

"I am Hyūga Kento, who defeated you in the last exam," Kento stated coldly. "Prepare yourself."

"I understand," Might Gai formed the Seal of Opposition and nodded.

"The exam begins!"

As soon as the invigilator finished speaking, Hyūga Kento opened his eyes, and the veins around his eyes burst out, making Hyūga Kento's face look a little ferocious.

With the blessing of Byakugan, everything about Might Gai was seen through by Hyūga Kento. He could easily see Might Gai's Chakra points and his flowing chakra.

But wait. There is more! He can also see an Aco-

Without hesitation, Hyūga Kento stopped his lips from twitching and chose to concentrate chakra in his palm and took the initiative.

With two powerful melee weapons, the gentle fist and the Byakugan, Hyūga Kento didn't think anyone in the ninja school could be stronger than him in close combat.

The Byakugan allows him to see through the enemy's movements, and the very Gentle Fist combined with the Byakugan can directly drive chakra into the Chakra points of the enemy's body to block the flow of chakra.

But to his surprise, something unexpected happened. The punch he aimed at Might Gai was quickly intercepted by Gai's swift counter.

Hyūga Kento's other hand continued to attack Might Gai's chakra points but was also caught.

Hyūga Kento swiftly transitioned to using his legs for offense, but the kicking skills were Gai's specialty. Gai swiftly released a powerful tornado kick, sending Hyuga Kento reeling back by three feet.

"How is it possible? I had seen through his movements, but my body..." Hyūga Kento's hands trembled as he looked at Might Gai in disbelief.

This marked the first instance where he had encountered such a situation.

"*Gasp* Hyūga Kento is falling behind in Taijutsu!" The students who were watching were taken aback.

Since Kakashi's graduation, their grade had essentially been under the rule of the one and only 'Hyūga Kin', and anyone who dared to challenge him in Taijutsu usually learned a painful lesson.

"Is Might Gai truly this formidable? Last time, he secured second place in the grade. This time, he's poised to take the top spot," Might Gai's impressive performance left many astonished.

Might Gai's ferocious performance immediately surprised many people.

"Come on, Might Gai!" Isamu saw that Might Gai actually suppressed Hyūga Kento, who ranked first in the grade in the last exam and couldn't help but cheer for Might Gai.

He seemed to see a generous bonus waving to him.

"Ahem, Teacher Isamu, you are the invigilator this time, pay attention." The invigilator next to him couldn't help but remind him in a low voice when he saw Isamu excitedly shouting

"Uhm..."

Only then did Ikari Isamu react and quickly closed his mouth, but he couldn't stop the smile on his face.

"Although Might Gai has the upper hand, the final result is hard to say. As long as he is hit by the gentle fist once, the offensive rhythm will be gone," a teacher commented.

Some teachers nodded.

If Hyuga Kento makes a mistake, it will only hurt for a while, but if Might Gai is hit by the gentle fist, things will be very serious. Chakra being injected into the body is no joke.

In simple terms, Hyuga Kento can have a few oopsies and still be fine, while Mighty Gai will lose if he has a brain fart during the battle.

Ikeya Isamu took a look and found that the person speaking was Hyūga Kento's homeroom teacher.

He did not refute. After all, Hyūga Kento had won the first place so many times, and Isamu was not very confident.

What happened next was beyond many people's expectations.

Hyuga Kento worked very hard to launch several attacks on Might Gai but failed to hit Might Gai once. Instead, as soon as Hyuga Kento took the opportunity to kick Might Gai again, he got countered.

"Good guy, those who don't know might think that Might Gai is the one with the Byakugan," the students marveled at Might Gai.

In the past, Hyūga Kento could effortlessly predict his opponents' moves and dodge them, but this time, the roles were completely flipped.

"You've only seen Gai's current self, but you don't know the torturous journey he's been on," Obito overheard the students' discussion next to him and couldn't help but reminisce about his own tragic experience with Mighty Gai.

It's through this kind of terrifying training that Mighty Gai honed his body and skills to their current form.

"Darn it, what's going on?" Hyūga Kento, who had always been on the back foot, started to get a little jittery.

He couldn't fathom why things had taken such a turn. Mighty Gai wasn't this formidable the last time they sparred, so what could explain his extraordinary progress in just two months?

With his anxiety showing, Hyūga Kento's weaknesses became more apparent.

Might Gai channeled chakra into his legs and rocketed forward, seizing an opening to launch his signature, lightning-fast kick.

"Leaf Hurricane!"

Boom!

Might Gai's chakra-enhanced spinning kick hit Hyūga Kento hard, sending him crashing to the ground and effectively defeating him.

"Candidate No. 4, Mighty Gai, is the victor!" the invigilator declared, awarding Mighty Gai a perfect ten for his physical prowess.

Hyūga Kento's taijutsu score landed at 9.9, but most of the instructors knew that the actual gap between the two contenders was more than just 0.1 points.

"It was a close call for Mighty Gai. Thankfully, he managed to avoid the gentle fist's touch; otherwise, it would have been a real doozy," Ikeya Isamu said with a grin, sensing the bonus coming closer.

Hyūga Kento's homeroom teacher wanted to say something but ultimately remained silent.

"It looks like the number one spot this time belongs to Mighty Gai. He even took down Hyūga Kento," onlookers speculated that the top spot in the grade exams had been claimed ahead of schedule.

"Not so fast. Uchiha Obito's fire-release ninjutsu is top-notch. No matter how powerful Mighty Gai's physical skills are, can he withstand the fire-release ninjutsu at this stage?" Uchiha Ikunori couldn't help but counter.

Given his earlier loss to Obito in their class skirmish, he was hopeful for Obito to take the lead.

Soon enough, Obito proved with his skills that Uchiha Ikunori's words weren't mere boasts.

Obito effortlessly defeated the number one contender, Shiranui Genma, in Class 6.

If it weren't for the invigilation and grading, Ikari Isamu would already be planning a celebratory visit to an izakaya with Makoto.

With these two exceptional students in tow, who cared about bonuses? He were more worried about how to handle the overflowing bonuses!
