Hayate Gekko, the proctor of the exams this year, finishes explaining the rules and everyone is already in the stands waiting for the name randomizer to pick the first match.

Kakashi notices you’re nervous about the fights, so he offers some friendly words. “Hey, relax. You’ve made it this far. That’s reason enough to be proud of yourself. Don’t worry about the potential results of your match later on even if you end up losing.”

And then the name randomizer lands on the first match’s names.
