Spoilers for Boruto: Naruto Next Generations episode 223

From Boruto: Naruto Next Generations Episode 222, Boruto was surprised to learn that the final round would be a series of one-on-one battles. After asking a few questions, he and the other students learn that only the winner of that battle would become a Chunin.

Having no clue who they'd be facing, the students do not feel comfortable with this examination method.

In this new episode, Sai announces the final round of the Chunin Exam. This final round would have the students fight each other with only half of them progressing ahead, becoming Chunin.

Shikamaru reveals that the students will be judged based on their abilities. Furthermore, Boruto and the other students will not know who their opponent is until the beginning of the match.
