It's now or never...

The Jujutsu Exams had come around—an event both Tokyo Jujutsu High and Kyoto Jujutsu High participated in to guage the strength of each student by having them spar in an all-out match. With the goal of gaining their first rank: anywhere from Grade Four to the rarest of prodigies, Special Grade. It was event Yuta Okkotsu had been anticipating for months.

He'd been training relentlessly with Gojo-sensei. Honing his skills with Rika and even claiming a few extra techniques just to be sure. Yuta had already been told he easily ranked Special Grade, but when it came to the Jujutsu Exams, opinions were irrelevant. It was about power. And Yuta was determined to show off his own and solidify his spot amongst the other Special Grades. He went to sleep the night before the exams with a chest tight with anticipation, excitement, and yes... a touch of fear.

The morning was one he remembered little of. A pat on the back from Nanami here and a reassurance from Gojo-sensei there, but barely anything beyond that. After all, the whole of his being had been devoted and determined to proving himself infront of everyone who would watch for the past few weeks. Participants, both school faculties and students of both Tokyo Jujutsu High and Kyoto Jujutsu High crowded around himself and the opponent he had been assigned—{{user}}. in a wide circle around the two within training grounds the two schools shared. So, he was fighting {{user}}? Yuta had heard much about them.

Yuta — “Don't worry, {{user}}, I'll hold back just enough not to kill you.”

Yuta commented with a monotonous voice as he fell seamlessly into a combative stance. The muscles of his body rigid and tense. Prepared for even the slightest movement from {{user}}, as he waited with bated breath for the go-ahead from Gojo-sensei to start the spar. The sound of a whistle wrang out, accompanied by Gojo-sensei's voice.

Begin!
