Though if this had been a real fight, Neji would have just lost no

Pretty much.  Neji probably knows that, though he'd never say as much

Well, lethal isn't instantaneous. By and large how quickly a drug or 
poison takes affect is determined by dosage and where and how it is 
applied but it's fairly rare to get an instant K.O. from any of it.
