I'm in a real religion, why are all the people who confess to me girls?

Followed by an exclamation from someone unknown.

Everyone saw Tianyin sitting cross-legged on a rock.

The rocks are not very high, only about three or four meters, and are not unclimbable.

But what was surprising was why Tianyin was sitting there alone.

Faced with such a strange scene, someone from Class B quickly woke up Ichinose. When Ichinose ran to Amane without even having time to comb her hair, her steps slowed down.

There were some bloodshot in his eyes, and the sportswear draped over his shoulders had long been wet by the morning dew. With dark circles under his eyes, Tianyin stared at the people in front of him without saying a word.

"Tianyin? Why are you here?"

Ichinose asked cautiously.

Tianyin did not answer, and her eyes shifted from the people in the distance to Ichinose. After being stared at by the gaze that seemed to be able to see through everything, Ichinose felt her scalp tingling... Maybe it was related to the fact that she had not had time to wash her hair in the morning, but Ichinose believed that it was caused by the oppressive feeling emanating from Tianyin.

Seeing that Amane didn't say anything, Ichinose changed his approach.

"Tianyin, do you need something to eat? Are you thirsty? I have some soda left over from yesterday, and it has your favorite orange flavor."

Ichinose smiled gently.

Tianyin moved, first shaking his head.

"It's okay, I don't need anything. I'm just sitting here and won't disturb you. Just do whatever you need to do and just ignore me."

Not only did Amane's words fail to reassure Ichinose, but a feeling of uneasiness spread deep in her heart.

"Please don't hurt my companions, okay?"

"The premise is that they don't attack me first, otherwise, hmph"

Tianyin's sudden cold snort startled Ichinose, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Kanzaki, who was behind Ichinose, couldn't help but stand up when he saw that Ichinose was frightened so easily.

"Hey! Miyako, go back to where you came from. This is our Class B base! Get out of here right now!"

“Kanzaki-san, please don’t be like this. Amane probably has her own ideas…”

"Whatever she thinks is none of our business. She's an eyesore sitting there! And this is our base. How can we let an outsider sit here? Ichinose, I know you have a good relationship with Miyako, but you are also the leader of Class B. You must prioritize."

Kanzaki's harsh words made Ichinose lower his head.

"Keep your head up, there's no need to bow down to this guy"

Tianyin said to Ichinose in dissatisfaction.

"But I do... Sigh, I care about both Amane and Class B, so why can't we discuss things peacefully? Even if something unpleasant happened before, Class B received extremely harsh punishments, and even Shiranami-san... Amane, can't you really just talk to us?"

Ichinose's voice already had a hint of sadness.

But Tianyin remained unmoved.

"Ichinose, you are kind, but your kindness is not suitable for this school that values ​​strength above all else. Pure kindness cannot save anyone."

Amane's words made Ichinose confused. After hesitating for a moment, Ichinose raised his head and looked at Amane.

"So is there any way to stop fighting?"

Ichinose's words made everyone behind her freeze.

Even Tianyin shook his head.

Since you have come to this school, if you don't want to get involved in the fight, you can choose to stay out of it, but wanting to stop the fight is tantamount to a fantasy.

Because fighting is the tone set by this school, take Class A for example, even if the entire class wants to stay out of it, there will always be a steady stream of challengers trying to seize Class A's throne.

Even as a member of Class D, we cannot truly stay away from fighting.

If you can’t beat Class A, can’t you just bully Class D?

Under the pressure of the environment, even if Class D is unable to resist and is at the mercy of others, they will still face struggles in various exams.

Fighting is not something that can be stopped by a class or an individual.

The overall environment of the school means that conflicts are inevitable in all classes.

But... there are ways to reduce conflicts. As long as you are strong enough, you can avoid a lot of trouble.

"Only fear can stop fighting"

As long as everyone is afraid and fearful, conflicts will naturally decrease. For example, Class A led by Nanyun Miyabi has defeated the original Class A to become Class A. Since then, no one in the entire second grade dared to provoke Nanyun's Class A.

According to Guilongyuan, in the final exam that determined their fate, Nanyun Masa used almost brutal means to destroy the confidence of Class B, which also caused fear in other classes one after another.

He suppressed an entire grade with just one person.

Although Tianyin did not discover what made Nanyun so strong, this was indeed a real fact.

This also proves that fear is effective in curbing fighting.

But this is definitely not the answer that Ichinose is looking for.

As expected, Ichinose shook his head.

"That's not the path I should take. I hope we can all walk together in harmony until graduation..."

Ichinose's idea was too naive, so naive that Amane couldn't bear to burst her hopes.

"Be on good terms with her? I'm afraid that's something Class B can't accept. Ichinose, why are you talking so much nonsense with her? Just let her leave Class B."

Kanzaki kept urging Ichinose to drive away Amane.

Ichinose's expression also turned grim.

"I was talking to Ichinose, who gave you permission to butt in?"

Amane's condescending tone made Kanzaki clench his fists.

"You bastard, you're occupying our camp and you still have the nerve to blame me?"

“Occupy? Did I occupy your base? Which rule of the exam says that I can’t stay in another class’s base? So… Kanzaki, if you dare to scream again, believe it or not, I will make you unable to scream for the rest of your life?… Well, I was just kidding, Ichinose, you don’t have to be afraid.”

Tianyin saw Ichinose's face turn pale and quickly explained.

This made Kanzaki, who was a little frightened, feel relieved.

Seeing Tianyin's serious expression just now, Kanzaki almost thought she was going to take action.

Although Tianyin would definitely be punished by the school if he took action.

But he didn't want to be beaten for no reason.

"That's good. I almost thought you were serious just now, Tianyin."

Ichinose patted his chest and his face turned red.

But soon, Ichinose realized a problem.

Tianyin really seemed to have no intention of leaving, and her behavior did not violate any rules, so...she couldn't let Tianyin sit here and act as a surveillance camera all the time, right?

Chapter 246: Class B's Action

Teacher Xingzhimiya arrived at Class B’s camp on time at 8 o’clock to take roll call.

When he saw Amane, he was a little confused as to why Amane was in Class B. However, after he learned about the situation from Ichinose, the smile on Hoshinomiya's face disappeared completely.

There are some things that those of them who have experienced it can see through at a glance, but due to the rules they have no way of telling the students, so they can only use the most tactful way possible to remind Class B.

Xing Zhigong thought about it and then informed everyone in Class B about the burning of Class A’s camp last night and the subsequent punishment of Class A.

Now, the entire Class B except Kanzaki and Shibata was in shock.

Because according to the original plan, Class B treated the imaginary enemy as Class A. After all, although Class A was not very stable internally, its strength was there.

However, this sudden fire actually forced Class A to withdraw from the exam, and as a result, Class B's biggest enemy was easily defeated.

If we also take into account the fact that Class C voluntarily withdrew from the exam, there would only be Class B and Class D left on the entire island still fighting the final battle.

In this way, Tianyin's behavior seems to be explained. After all, the last enemy is only Class B, and Class D probably has no clue, so they use the most primitive surveillance methods to try to find out who is the key card holder and the lurker.

It’s a pity that Class B is not as careless as other classes.

Since there were only two classes left for the final showdown, and Class B had the upper hand, there was naturally no need for them to risk a conflict with Tianyin and have Tianyin notice their flaws.

"Teacher Hoshinomiya, I would like to ask if there was really no other class involved in yesterday's fire?"

While everyone was excitedly discussing Class B's impending final victory, Shibata asked Hoshinomiya a pointed question.

Shibata received news from Horikita yesterday that Class A was about to be attacked, so he came back to instigate Kanzaki to seize Class A's base. In Shibata's opinion, there must be members of Class D among the criminals involved in the arson.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Horikita to know that Class A would be attacked several hours in advance.

But the question is how the school views this incident.

Shibata didn't believe that the school couldn't find any clues.

If the school really wanted to investigate, they would definitely find a way to restore the truth, but the result was that Class A withdrew from the exam.

If the incident was still under investigation, Shibata wouldn't be so nervous. It's normal for Class A to be punished for poor management to warn other classes to pay attention to safety hazards.

But if Class A's withdrawal was a punishment for the fire, then that would be a big problem.

This means that the investigation into the fire in Class A's camp has concluded and the school has not determined that such measures were illegal.

In other words...if the fire in Class A's camp was related to Tianyin, Tianyin could have used the same trick on Class B again.

Anyway, the school’s attitude towards handling this incident is very ambiguous.

Even if Class B was burned to ashes, people would probably blame it on poor management. In that case, Tianyin's arrival might not be a good thing for Class B.

Xing Zhigong hesitated for a moment and then spoke.

"The school has classified this incident as Class A's mismanagement that led to the fire, so we also need to be vigilant about safety hazards. Ichinose, do you understand?"

Hoshinomiya looked at Ichinose meaningfully.

"Don't worry, Mr. Hoshinomiya. I will supervise everyone to use fire safely."

Instead of hearing the answer he wanted, Mr. Hoshinomiya just smiled and rubbed Ichinose's head.

"Then you guys should do your best."

"Well, please rest assured, Mr. Hoshinomiya."

Xing Zhimiya left Class B's camp feeling somewhat lost.

As a teacher, this is all she can do within the rules, and the rest is up to the students to figure out on their own.

After Mr. Hoshinomiya left, Ichinose convened a discussion meeting for Class B.

"Now there are only us and Class D left on the island. What action will Class B take next?"

Ichinose looked towards the people she trusted most in the tent.

"I think it would be better to be conservative. If possible, I would even like to give up occupying the base today to avoid exposing the flaws. The exam will end tomorrow. The points gained from occupying the base today are insignificant to us. The most important thing right now is to protect the people in the class who have special identities."

As soon as Shibata opened his mouth, he was immediately echoed by others.

Because such mature and steady remarks are in line with Class B's traditional conservative strategy. If they intend to adopt a conservative strategy, they can implement it easily.

"Shibata, what nonsense are you talking about? Since there are only two classes left, I think Class B should confront Class D directly. We can even reach a deal through dialogue. Maybe we can win without fighting."

Compared to Shibata's moderate and conservative strategy.

Kanzaki's strategy seems quite radical, but Ichinose is also quite interested in his idea. After all, if there is a way to win without fighting, she won't have to fight Amane anymore, which is also a good thing for Class B.

After all, fighting with Amane was a very torturous thing for Ichinose.

"Kanzaki-san, I would like to know what kind of deal would make Class D willing to let go of their previous hatred, or even achieve what you call "defeating the enemy without fighting". How much benefit can we get after this exam? Rather than spending a huge price in exchange for a superficial victory, I would rather be accused of being a coward, but actually gain substantial benefits for the class."

Shibata's thoughts were exactly what most people in Class B thought.

Assuming that Class B can gain 200 class points in this exam, Kanzaki will give 180 points in exchange for Class D withdrawing from the exam. At this time, it is entirely possible that Class D will agree to such a condition.

Once Class D chose to withdraw from the exam, the victory would undoubtedly belong to Class B. However, as the winner, Class B only received 20 class points. In Shibata's view, such a victory was no different from a failure.

Now Class B is only one step away from the end of the exam. They only need to be a little more conservative to avoid Tianyin's harassment. There is no need to pay such a huge price.

If they gave up most of the benefits they deserved at this time, it would be tantamount to negating the efforts of the previous few days and would become a laughing stock among all the first-year students.

Kanzaki already knew that Shibata would find a way to refute, and he was prepared.

"Shibata, I don't believe you didn't understand what you asked Mr. Hoshinomiya just now. Even things like arson are suppressed by the school, so who knows if that guy outside will do the same to us? We only need to make enough concessions to quell the fight, and we may even make some money. So why can't we choose the simplest and most effective way? If it succeeds, we don't have to stay in the tent all day in fear!"
