i dont think thats necessarily ture, krbadass...the idea of losing your first match in the finals but becoming a chuunin while the winner of the tournament could potentially stay genin level has been stated as possible by the hokage, the exam is to see which genin have the qualities that would make a genin able to take the responsibility for leading a team, being liable for the team&#39;s survival and the completion of a mission, none of wich particularly rely on pure ninja ability, but rather leadership. so, i think it is possible for a chuunin weak enough to be deafeated by most genins but smart/leading/responsible enough to lead a team and make sure the mission is completed without casulties.
