After the short rest, Minato leapt down and walked to the battle arena before them. The older blonde was already standing in the arena waiting for him.
"Glad you could finally make it. Must be nice having the Hokage's sister as your Jonin teacher." she said in a snarky tone.
"It has its perks." Minato said coyly. The instructor announced the match and the pair took their stances. As soon as the signal to begin was given Minato launched forward the same way he did with Chozen. His reasoning was to reveal as little of what he had learned to anyone else saving it for his fight with Kagasei. The blonde was ready though and leapt back deflecting his sword with a kunai and seemingly sending it flying into the ground. Minato leapt back grinning as he began weaving hand seals together. 
"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" he shouted inhaling deep and breathing a jet of flame from his mouth toward his enemy who dodged easily and began to get cocky.
"You really think those old tricks can stop me?" she said watching as Minato disappeared and six of him appeared around her all kicking and punching her throwing her up into the air before Minato leapt up from the crowd and spiraled through the air around her kicking her in the stomach.
"Lion Barrage!" he shouted as she plummeted to the ground just outside the arena. 
"Ring out battle ended!" the exam proctor said after Minato landed retrieving his sword. He walked over to where the young woman was laying a little dazed but still okay.
"Congrats you won and get to fight your teammate." she said as he reached his hand out to help her up. 
"Nothing personal. I'm Minato by the way. Never caught your name." he said in reply. The blonde laughed and tucked her hair behind her ear with a grin.
"Hikari you can call me Hikari." she said smiling before leaping up to her team. Minato did the same looking to Kagasei briefly before looking to Himawari who was gushing and asking a million questions.
"Why didn't you retrieve your sword after she knocked it away? How did she even do that you had such immense control last fight?." Minato raised his hand calmly to address the fact that she had been rambling.
"I let her knock it aside when I realized I made a mistake and underestimated her." he said plainly as he turned to await everything that would follow before his fight with Kagasei.
