The next day, early morning, Kaida woke up as usual at 4:30. However, he was again in the dilemma of what to do. He even tried to sleep some more, but due to his daily habits, he was unable to. After some thinking, he decided to do the same thing he did on his previous holiday: cleaning and organizing the house.

Due to the house already being relatively clean, this was done within an hour.

**Kaida's POV**

Now that I had already cleaned the house, what should I do? Hmm, now that I have time, I think I should sort out my plans and goals.

First, now that we have already learned all three jutsu, I think we should take the second-semester exam too. Since most of the other students just have to learn this much to pass the exam, I think what we are going to learn in the other two semesters is advanced stuff, so there is no point in wasting time.

Another thing is I should think of finding some ways to earn money since it has been seven months since we enrolled in the academy. We were given around 28,000 RYO, out of which we somehow managed to save 22,000 RYO.

But now that we have decided to go out and enjoy our holiday, it will end in no time, as on the previous holiday our spending reached around 800 RYO.

After that, the most important thing is that I should somehow find a way to learn the Shadow Clone Jutsu. It was one of the most important jutsu in the Naruto series, as it not only helps to create an extra helper during a fight who knows all your jutsu but is also very useful in learning stuff.

This is one of the reasons I am not thinking of mastering those jutsu and reducing their hand signs, as it will be easier when I learn the Shadow Clone Jutsu.

After thinking for some time about immediate issues, he wrote down all of those in the scroll in the language from his previous life so that if somehow anyone wanted to check him, they would not find anything.

After writing, it was already 7:00 AM. He took a bath and got ready for today's outing. After getting ready, he went toward Yomi's house to pick her up.

**Knock knock**

When Yomi heard the knock, she went toward the gate and opened it as she knew the person who would come at this time would be Kaida.

When she saw him, instant happiness could be seen on her face. On the other hand, Kaida was once again mesmerized by her beauty, as she was again looking gorgeous.

As there was no major shift in the plan from the previous outing, they decided to first go to Ichiraku Ramen for breakfast. There, they once again ordered ten bowls. Though expensive, its taste made it worth it.

After eating, they went toward the park and sat in the same spot they sat last time. Then Kaida decided to tell Yomi about the decision he made in the morning.

"Yomi, I think we should take the exam as Kenji-sensei had said that the condition for passing the exam will be learning those three jutsu and we have already done more than enough. What do you think?"

"Well, I don't have any problem, but since you have previously told me that to master a technique we have to work on reducing the hand signs used to do that technique, and it can only be done with practice, so I was thinking we will have to do more practice for that jutsu," Yomi asked.

"And we have to, but the academy doesn't want us to master that jutsu, and we will have enough time to master that jutsu after qualifying for the exam."

"OK, I don't have any problem taking the exam," Yomi said with a smile. The rest of the day went the same as the previous holiday.

At night, they both went back.

The next day, they did a light workout as they had decided to take the exam for the second part of their academy today.

They also decided not to practice the tree climbing exercise today to keep their chakra reserves full. After completing the light exercise, they took a bath and went toward the academy.

But this time, they did not make their way straight toward the training area like always but went towards Kenji.

Seeing them approaching him, Kenji thought that they had finally reached a bottleneck, as there are some things in which you will need help no matter how much of a genius you are. When they stood in front of his desk, Kenji said:

"Welcome both of you. What do you want to ask?"

Kaida and Yomi bowed respectfully, and Kaida said, "We would like to take our second exam, sensei."

Kenji thought he heard them wrong, so he asked again, "Both of you want to take your second exam this early?"

Seeing them nod, Kenji sighed and said, "You guys don't have to hurry in these things. I know I said that the village has high expectations from you guys, but it has just been two weeks since you guys started learning jutsu.

You guys can take your time and learn them perfectly, as Lord Hokage himself will be present there, and if you fail to perform the jutsu, you will be removed from the special class and placed in normal classes."

He thought that due to this, they would hesitate and take their time in practicing the jutsu rather than rushing to take the exam. But the kids still said, "We are confident enough about our practice, sensei, so we would still like to take the exam."

Kenji let out an audible sigh and said, "Well, I tried to warn you guys. I will tell Lord Hokage about this and he will decide the date of the exam. You guys can go to the training area if you want."

"Thank you, sensei," both of them said.

Kenji just nodded and went towards the Hokage's office to inform Hiruzen about this. He went to the receptionist and said, "I have something important to discuss with Lord Hokage."

The receptionist smiled and said, "I will inform Lord Hokage about this. Please wait for some time."

Kenji nodded and went to sit on the sofa present in the corner. After some time, the receptionist informed Kenji that Lord Hokage was calling him.
