(This may sound a bit tough, but I'm trying to push your character to his limit...where I can see his true colors.)
Hyoko's spear end slammed against the ground, his mouth line turning into a smile at the remark. He decided to say nothing, his eyes narrowing as he eyed Sano's ninjutsu. Shadow clones weren't hard to deal with, especially when rushed at him blindly in various directions. With a circular slash of his spear most of the clones were sent catapulting away, save a few lingering clones. With a swift jab to the stomach, and a grapple of another, leaving only one that didn't dissappear.
"70% of a fight is Atemi, or strikes and blows, which you Hyugas seem to use an ehanced version of...but you self proclaimed Taijutsu masters have left one vital part gone." Hyoko let out, quickly dashing to Sano's side. Grappling and throwing, a technique favored by thousands of Martial arts styles could prevent Atemi all together, rendering ehanced fists useless...and even their movement. Using his spear for leverage, the boy flew an arm at Sano's shoulder, his other one directed towards his other. The end of his spear was placed behind the boy to prevent him from backing out of the techniqe, and it could be easily flailed upward incase he jumped. With a twist, his leg was potioned to his left side preventing a complete imobile range, the blunt of his spear ready to strike the boys solar plexus incase he tried to use the famed Hyuga's defense...
Not only did Hyoko attempt to grapple his shoulder, but he tried to swerv his arms inward through the armpit...locking him in a almost wrestling style meneuver that prevented complete arm movement from striking him. The left foot was locked behind the boys right, preventing it from moving backward...while the point of the spear was still behind the boy, the blunt facing his stomach. It disengaged the Hyuga's style completly, a prevention from movement...a weak point in their style.
Kaji's clone looked on, somewhat impressed that Hyoko was able to analyze such a key weakness. For without being able to strike, let alone make the correct form for the Kaiten. For even a Hyuga's dodging capabilities were impossible, now that Hyoko had used his spear in conjunction with the attack...and even using his legs to prevent Sano's legs movements. Hyuga's were indeed powerful, but they only accepted a small amount of Taijutsu as a whole, and although that amount was extremly deadly...in the eyes of a grappler...it was easily preventable.

Sano looked on as his clones were destroyed in an instant, watching as the attacker attempted to grapple him. Sano had choices, he couldn't move to the side and backwards would be a complicated move. The only way was up, Sano rushed at Hyoko at threw his metal platted left arm at him. He lifted his left leg and with the use of chakra tried to stick it to Hyoko's body, he lifted his other leg and did an uppercut with his foot directed at Hyoko's chin.
(Since you'll most likely block or dodge) Once the attacks from both side were done Sano made some distance between the two of them, and he made two shadow clones. The tree Sanos each threw ten shuriken/kunai at Hyoko, each doing a Wind Release: Drilling Air Bullet and finally combining there strength to do a Win Release: Great Breakthrough.

Hyoko grimmaced, the metal plating of Sano's arm connecting with the side of his jaw. Immediatley a rush of blood streamed from the Boy's lip, as he shook of the pain. However, upon seeing the boys leg lift, the blunt of his spear was driven into the Hyuga's solar plexus...most likely knocking him back, and taking the breath out of him.
He ungrappled the boy, flying back as distance was created between them...seing Sano's Ninjutsu unfold. This was where Hyoko was at a disadvantage, and he held up his spear in advance. With a rush, the wind hurltled past him...Hyoko's arm's moving speedily as the spear spun in front of him, his foot anchored behind him to prevent the blast from hitting him. Although the futile attempt to block the wind displaced it's momentoum...and prevented it's full force, it was still enough to knock the student off his feet...Hyoko landing hard on his rear.
The deciple's head shook, quickly skyrocketing upward into another stance...nodding at Sano. For he truley didn't want to kill this boy, and he was a worthey opponent, however it was his duty. The nod was to congratulate him from knocking him off his feet, a gesture of politeness in most martial arts fights. He knew that that technique required a fairly large amount of chakra...it being a C-rank Jutsu, mutiplied by his shadow clones.
With a whip, the blood was gone from his chin...likely a bruise would appear from the connection with Sano's plate. And with a dash, and abnormal speed for a non-shinobi...the boy rocketed forth He spear out in front for defense. Hyoko instantly swerved as he tried to wrap around a grab to Sano's leg, attempting to bring it up to a hoist, that would render Sano to be flipped over entirely.

After Sano was struck in the side and did his combo with his clones, he started thinking of a strategy. Sano carefully thought over his plans, he needed a way to get in close for an attack. A way to distract him with something else so he could use his Eight Trigram, but what? Then it hit him, he used a sumoning scroll and summoned up a boiling hot pot with exploding tags all around it. He jumped up on his clones shoulders and jumped into the air, using chakra he clung to the wall for a second and threw the pot across the room. It banged against the wall and Sano soon jumped over there himself, the walls in the room were filled with weapons so when this went off it would send them racing around the room while he hid behind a Kaiten. He jumped on this wall and leaped across the room aiming for Hyoko, as he did he spun around creating a Kaiten for an attack instead of a defence.

(I'm getting bored, I'm just going to end this test so we can get things moving.)
Hyoko's eyes widened, his spear outstreched as he lept to the side...avoiding the spinning Kaiten. However, the dodge was a misfortune, at best. The leap had anchored him directly near the near exploding pot. With a loud curse, the explosion sent the boy flying...hitting the wall hard underneath a small memorial shrine. His arms were blackened, and clothes torn...charred marks remaining all over his body. It was truley the case, that Chakra did come in handy in a fight...and he was at a disadvantage the entire fight. A pair of wobbly legs helped him up, disappointment marking his face as he nodded in conset at the Hyuga. If it were a normal fight, Taijutsu versus Taijutsu...the outcome may have differed, but Sano's ninjutsu prevailed in this case.
Boredom marked Kaji's face as the girl didn't seem to reply, and he sensed that the battle ended. "I guess I'll have to speak with you later, I suggest you leave for now...unless you make up for your lack of respect." The harsh remark shot out of Kaji's lips like verbal fire, and the Jounin quickly turned around...leaving the girl and her wolf to ponder their actions.
Upon returning to the fight, he nodded at the outcome, truley seeing Sano's worth as the clone's visualizatoin combined with his own. He clapped slightly, helping Hyoko up in the process. "Both of you did well, Hyoko...I'm proud of you aswell." He dismissed the student, nodding at him in content. "And you Sano, You'll make a fine student...and you dealt with a deathly situation perfectly. You remained on the defensive for the most part, and I could tell you didn't want to hurt Hyoko...and for that, your a welcome addition to team Kaji." He paused, looking at the damage that the explosion caused.
"But don't think your getting out of cleaning my Dojo!"

Sano was surprised that his trap was sprung before he even used it, he was planning to wait for Hyoko to grapple again and use a replacement jutsu to swap with the post. The blast would have finished Hyoko and Sano would have been at safe distance from the explosion. Sano was always a bit of a strategist after all, thats how he beat his opponent in the academy. A smile crossed his face as he heard of his well put effort, he bowed to his opponent before he left and went right back to looking at his new sensei. The next words out of his mouth were like kidney failure, as Sano grapped a broom and started to sweep up chunks of wood from the dojo.

Hao was leaned against a wall of the of the room as he watched the fight. How do ninjas find beating the crap out of each other fun?, Hao thought to himself as he watched the battle. He never could understood why anyone loved being a shinobi so much. It just didn't make any sense to him.
As he watched the fight part of it reminded him of his fight with Kazuma. Hyoko was using nothing but taijutsu in the battle just as he did, and Sano was using both taijutsu and ninjutsu just as Kazuma. Odd, but then didn't really matter it was just something he noticed.
Once the battle was over he did nothing. His face was emotionless. His mind thinking of other things as he waited for Kaji to start teaching him.

The young demon grew a little bored. He went there to learn, but then all these people began showing up. And there wasn't really much else to do. With a small yawn he looked toward his sensei. "Hey Ramen-sensei I'm leaving alright," he yelled out to him a bit of a tired look in his eyes.
With that he left the room going out to the back of the Dojo grabbing both his kodachi, and the duel kodachi his sensei gave him. he smiled at the duel kodachi happy that he was in trusted with him. These blades were made from the Sojiro clan yet Kaji was giving them to him. To feel such trust from someone felt nice. It was a rare thing from him so far only few people have actually shown him such trust. Espeshaly after seeing him lose control of his body to Ryuho.
Once he got all three blades he exited the Dojo giving out yet another yawn. He felt relaxed until he heard his voice again.
"You better keep your guard up boy"
"Huh?" Kazuma said confused stopping in his trcks. "What are you talking about why the hell should I I'm tried let me rest!" he yelled out loud with really noticing. The people in front of the dojo just giving the young demon an odd look, "Umm... uhh" he studdered as the people looked at him then just went back to their own bussness. "You really need to stop talking to me in public its getting really annoying talking to you"
"Not my fault you keep talking out loud even though I can hear your thoughts"
"Damn bastard!"

Kaji turned to Kazuma, somewhat disappointed that they didn't have more time on single training. He didn't expect such an influx of new students...and quite frankly, he had his hands full at the moment. However, he nodded towards his student...cracking his left knuckles. "Watch your back around here...recently Konoha's walls have been prone to break." For the Sojiro said the statement with a smirk on his face, knowing that it would force Kazuma to be on his guard.
For recently Konoha had it's share of breachings, as if the guard itself had been asleep the entire time. No matter, Kaji himself had been watching his own back recently...after hearing reports of the Kaguya.
With a flick of his wrist the Jounin tossed Hao a bokken, keeping an eye on Sano cleaning the Dojo. "Oi, you better clean those racks good!" He yelled out, smiling at the site of the scrambling Hyuga. With his full attention back to Hao, he nodded pulling out his own Bokuto. "Are you ready?"
(short, crappy, and to the point...Not in the mood for an over 5 minute post.)

Hao said nothing. His eyes looking bored. He mind was a bit spaced out as he watched Sano clean, his right side facing Kaji so he was unable to see him. When Kaji tossed him him the bokken Hao didn't notice due to his blindness and the wooden blade fell to the floor. The young shinobi's attention going to the ground noticing the bokken.
The young ninja then picked it up looking up at Kaji nodding his head, Yeah and sorry for not catching this thing I didn't notice it, Hao said to him trying to be more respectful as Kaji told him he should be. So... what first?

Kaji smiled, shaking his head slightly at the site. "I guess I forgot about your seeing condition...sorry." He let out, waving his bokken slightly as he looked down at the boy. The Dojo was busy today, but he tried to keep his attention on Hao for the moment, the rest of the other students would have to wait. The Tatami mats gave off a straw-like odor, from the humid air that surrounded the walls. It was the product of so many people working hard, the humid air coming off their pores.
"Your lack of sight will aid you in your swordsmanship, believe it or not. For it will allow you to focus on your other senses...which is extremley important." He paused, placing the tip of the Wooden sword against the ground. "We'll start with the mental aspect of the sword. For a blade in this Dojo's pupose isn't meant to bring death, more to protect. The Katana will merely guide your natural instincts to help others, and it will shape you into a warrior that in turn, well not only allow you to help individuals...but Konoha itself."
He starred rather seriously at the boy, eyes fixaded upon his...while an odd breeze passed through. "A sword's intent is based entirely on the wielder, and the choices you make with it...are some of the most important you will ever make..."

Hao said nothing as Kaji apologized forgetting his site condition. He was never given pity for it before an he didn't want it now. The young shinobi then listened to the swordsman's words. Taking them in a bit by bit disappointed for this style was one that was opposed to killing.
He wanted to learn in hopes of being able to kill his grandfather by getting stronger with the sword. However weather or not Kaji would approve of his actions were the problem. Then again what he didn't wouldn't hurt him. Hao nodded as the Sojiro finished speaking, I understand I'll do my best to make the right choices, Hao said to him a bit lying for he true he was going to use it for protecting the village and such for he was a shinobi. Despite the fact that he had no interest in being one. But he did plan on assassinating his grandfather there was no doubt in that.

(Sorry If I'm lazy, but I'm taking some lines about stances and what not from my previous posts with Kazuma...)
An arm was raised, Kaji's left hand automatically rubbing the back of his neck. For his face remained somewhat amused, mental annoyance creeping in. Among his first days back in Konoha, and he was stuck training brats all day. For he would much rather be flirting with Konoha's ladies, especially one that he had his eye on.
Nevertheless, he reamined captive in the Dojo...and his attention shackled to the devotion of training youth. His mouth opened, syllables creeping out in a threatening...yet joking manner. "Yeah you better..." The Jounin let out, his crimson eyes staring at the half blind Genin. For the Oak Bokken rested against the Sojiro's shoulder, and Kaji was prepared to begin the long winded teachings that lay bestowed in these arts.
"For we begin, with the most basic...the stance. A warrior is easily overcome, if not witholding a strong stance." He felt like he was repeating himself, after teaching the same thing to Kazuma not long ago. " A fluid yet firmly rooted stance will allow maximum movement, along with an anchored position. This will maximize both offensive and defensive capabilities, and with that comes speed." This is completly balanced; speed, offense, and defense should work flawlessly together...almost in a rhythmic and automatic manner. The stance was basic of course, but it was how stances were interchangable to adapt to situations, that was where their true abilities shined out. They complemented each other, hand and hand. For together, the shifted evenly...keeping the opponent in a constant, worried state. For an unexpected attack is usually a sucessful one, and shifted stances are what lead to this.
For the Jounin let the words sink in, planning to move on to the outside training grounds before long.

Hao narrowed his eyes at Kaji's statement. Damn bastard. He took a deep breath to calm himself no need getting pissed off at his so called sword teacher. The half blind shinobi listened to the swordsman's explanation about having a strong stance. Both his hand grabbing the grip of the wooden blade. His hands together which he didn't know was the wrong way to hold a sword, but this was his first time weilding one so him getting something wrong wasn't surprising.
He held the sword in front of him the tip of the blade leveled to where his chin was both his feet apart. Hows this stance? Hao asked him wanting to see if it was a good stance or not. Still holding on to the blade wrong.

(ok since Kaji's not going to be here I shall be leaving)
As Hao waited for a reply his left eye noticed that it was getting late and that he had to get home soon for he had no excuse to use to hide the fact he was here. Sorry I got to go, he said as he walked out the room placing his bokken at the wall next to the door. Without saying another word they young boy left the Dojo's doors his eyes filled with annoyance. He didn't get to learn a thing while he wasted his time there. Oh well nothing he could really do to change it.
