"Director, you..."

"Tianze-kun, I won't waste any more words. You must immediately take your men and get to Gaoyu. An extremely serious student riot has occurred here! Hundreds of people have shamelessly attacked a girl named Miyako. It's heartbreaking. I hope you can quickly bring your men here to control the situation and prevent it from escalating further."

Kinoshita spoke very hurriedly, but the surroundings were quite quiet, clearly putting on a show. Since this was different from the usual situation, Tenze also needed to carefully ponder the meaning behind Kinoshita's words.

Sending someone is definitely necessary, but he must understand the significance of sending him! If he doesn't even understand this, then his going there is tantamount to his career being ruined.

After quickly analyzing Kinoshita's words in his mind, the surname Miyako caught Tianze's attention. At first, he just felt that the surname was somewhat familiar, but when he inadvertently glanced at the memorandum of contact information for officials at all levels on the table, his expression suddenly changed. He hurriedly agreed to Kinoshita's request and rushed to Gao Yu with his men without even bothering to tidy his clothes.

At this moment, Tianyin was like a trapped beast, surrounded by the remaining strong warriors in the middle of the arena, completely losing any room for maneuver.

Chapter 455: Failing to Play Dead

Tianyin felt somewhat helpless looking at the remaining lucky survivors before her.

Thanks to her efforts, all the unqualified minions have been eliminated, but for Tianyin, the situation has become even worse.

The remaining few were all familiar faces to Amane. Both Horikita Manabu and Kiryuin were people who could ensure that she would suffer real damage. Amane couldn't judge whether her attacks would be effective because she had never fought Albert and Ryuen. However, the oppressive feeling brought by Albert alone made Amane wary. Continuing to use guerrilla tactics was no longer feasible. If the opponents adopted a mindless attack strategy of swarming in, Amane would also find it difficult to break through their encirclement.

The only way to significantly reduce the number of opponents is to break through in one fell swoop by Fujiwara-senpai, whom she sees as an opening, as well as the two second-year students, Yagami and Kusanagi.

Although Amane also lacked experience fighting the three of them, if Yagami and Kusanagi were truly strong, their reputation at school wouldn't be based primarily on their looks.

Having made up her mind, Tianyin began to quietly adjust her breathing. She needed an opportunity, an opportunity to break out of the predicament.

Horikita took a slight breath and began to observe Tenon.

To be honest, at this moment, Tenon was full of flaws in his eyes, but the more flaws there were, the less Horikita Manabu dared to be careless, because even an ordinary person would not be in a situation where they were full of flaws, unless the difference in strength was really too great to be reached.

Is it possible for Horikita Manabu to be that much stronger than Amane? Horikita Manabu himself doesn't believe that possibility.

The answer is obvious: she was deliberately creating an opening to lure them into launching the attack first.

Horikita Manabu's expression darkened even more after seeing through Amane's tactics. If Amane was already in a killing frenzy, then they could simply overwhelm him with their numerical and quality advantages. Unless Amane had three heads and six arms to control their actions, it was only a matter of time.

However, judging from Tianyin's performance, although she was indeed blinded by rage, she was still very clear-headed and could still think of using strategy to solve the predicament.

This made Horikita Manabu, who was usually cautious, hesitant to order an attack.

Long Yuan was eager to try, because he was positioned behind Tian Yin. As long as someone attracted Tian Yin's attention first, he could launch a sneak attack with a high success rate. Even Tian Yin shouldn't be able to deal with the two people attacking from the front and back at the same time.

Horikita Manabu had also thought of this method, but he was also concerned about something that made him even more troubled.

That is, if the scale of the attack is not properly controlled, the consequences of Tianyin being injured could be quite serious.

For the first time, Horikita Manabu realized how ridiculous this school, which promoted merit above all else, was.

Why bring in such an overpowered monster? Wouldn't it be better to send someone like this directly to a prestigious girls' school? If it were a girls' school, Tianyin would probably be laughing in her sleep every day. Why let such an overpowered guy compete against them?

Faced with a monster that could kill someone with a single punch, these "weaklings" actually held back for fear of hurting the monster. What kind of bullshit logic is that?

"Strength is paramount? That's not entirely wrong. That guy's soft power alone has left us helpless."

Horikita Manabu muttered to himself, he didn't have a perfect solution. In Horikita Manabu's opinion, either he should capture Amane and then... then none of these people would be able to continue, or they should be beaten down by Amane and then Amane should be able to completely calm down.

Horikita Manabu felt that neither of the proposed solutions was suitable.

Seeing that Horikita Manabu was getting increasingly confused and it was getting dark, Nanonuma, who had been lying on the ground pretending to be dead for a long time, had no choice but to force herself to stand up.

"Nan Yun, you...you're not feeling well right now. You should rest for a bit."

Horikita was somewhat surprised to see that Nangumo Masa was still able to get up, but looking at Nangumo Masa's disheveled appearance, he knew that he probably couldn't even exert 30% of his strength now. Rather than being beaten on the field, it would be better to find a place to hide.

Nangumo naturally realized that Horikita Manabu considered him a useless person, but he had no right to refute it. He did defeat Amane at the beginning, but Amane easily killed him in return, which made all his previous performance look as ridiculous as a child fighting an adult.

To be honest, he didn't want to get up at this awkward time either.

He was not actually unconscious after being knocked down by Tianyin. He originally planned to get up and continue fighting Tianyin, but he quickly thought about and assessed his own strength. Perhaps he could injure Tianyin by adopting a desperate fighting style.

But the most likely outcome is that he will still be beaten up and brutally attacked by Tianyin in public.

The thought of that scene sent chills down Nan Yun's spine. So, Nan Yun decided to play dead. This way, he could avoid losing face in front of outsiders and ensure that he would not be harmed. It was a win-win situation.

However, Nan Yun miscalculated. He lay on the ground for a long time without anyone paying attention to him. Someone even stepped on him while running.

The medical team responsible for the rescue and Hoshinomiya-sensei were also missing. Faced with this unexpected situation, Nagumo was somewhat helpless and could only endure the pain and hope that Horikita-manabu would end the battle quickly. However, things took an unexpected turn. Nearly a hundred people who were fighting individually were all taken down by Amane alone. Keep in mind that there are only 160 people in a grade, which means that if Amane wanted to, she could take down an entire grade...

Can such a person really be considered a "human being"?

Seeing that Horikita Manabu was starting to worry about gains and losses again, Nagumo could no longer bear it and, disregarding his injuries and the strange looks from others, struggled to his feet.

"Senior Horikita, this is not the time to worry about gains and losses. If we can't control that guy, not only will the school lose face, but even we... all the students in the school will be treated as useless even if we graduate from here. So what if we can get into a prestigious university? Can you really stand the strange looks from others?"

Horikita Manabu let out a soft hum through his nose.

He knew that Nan Yun was using reverse psychology, but since he couldn't make up his mind anyway, he might as well listen to Nan Yun's thoughts.

"As the vice president of the student council and the one who devised the 'One-Man Challenge,' I believe you, Nagumo, must have a better plan. Why don't you tell me?"

When Nagumo saw Horikita say that, he couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Anyone with eyes can see that this one-man showdown was a complete failure. Now, Horikita Manabu, the student council president who is going to resign after the sports festival, has just dumped all the responsibility on him with a few words. How is he supposed to face everyone's doubts when he goes on stage?

This time, we've really messed up.

Chapter 456: An Unconventional Genius

Although Nagumo was dissatisfied with Horikita Manabu's attitude, resolving the incident as soon as possible was the most important thing, so Nagumo quickly expressed his thoughts.

"In my opinion, although Miyako's stamina has been somewhat depleted, it doesn't seem to affect her combat ability. I experienced one of her punches, and I suspect she's already suffering from a concussion. If Amane can still unleash such a fierce attack, the girl can probably only withstand one punch. Kiryuin over there might be able to withstand a few punches, but that won't change anything."

Nan Yun's analysis was quite objective. He did not exaggerate Tian Yin's combat ability because she had humiliated him severely. However, even if Nan Yun did not exaggerate Tian Yin's ability, the strength she displayed was enough to amaze people.

"So I think we should find someone who can take a beating, like Albert Yamada from Class C of the first year, and have him attack from the front. Then, the two of us can attack from the left and right to subdue Miyako. Then, we can pin her down with our bodies. This will prevent her from resisting and also prevent her from using her speed advantage. The only way she can break this plan is to knock down the person attacking from the front with one punch. Otherwise, she can't possibly attack three people at the same time..."

"Please wait a moment."

Nagumo's words were interrupted by Fujiwara, who was standing to the side.

Nagumo looked at Fujiwara suspiciously. He didn't think there was anything wrong with his plan. If Fujiwara was still trying to find fault at this time, Nagumo felt that he should lower his opinion of her even further.

"I don't mean anything by it, but is it really okay for us to discuss offensive tactics so openly and honestly?"

As Fujiwara watched Nagumo loudly plotting, he felt a dull ache in his stomach. Wasn't this tantamount to blatantly telling Amane about their plan?

"Don't worry, she's currently focusing on recovering her strength and won't launch an attack first. Besides, this is a well-laid plan. The attackers on the left and right will only join the attack after the person directly engaged in combat has made contact with Miyako. This way, she won't have any other options besides knocking down the person directly attacking her with one punch. Even if she can knock down Yamada-kun with one punch, we have seven people, and we can organize a second and third wave of attacks... As long as one of her attacks is blocked, she will lose."

Nagumo smiled confidently at Amane. After thinking for a moment and finding no problem, Fujiwara stopped talking and switched positions with Albert, letting Albert go to the front to be the main attacker.

Just as everything was ready, Nan Yun suddenly spoke up to remind him.

"Remember, once you grab her, immediately pin her down with your body. Don't attack her in any other way. If you accidentally cause any problems, the consequences could be a little troublesome. Next, I'll count to one. Yamada, you'll launch the attack. In the first round, Yagami will be on the left and Kusanagi on the right. In the second round, Horikita-senpai will be the main attacker, with Ryuen on the left and Fujiwara on the right. Kiryuin, if you see Amane resist, go up and give her a blow. Just be careful with your strength."

Nagumo took over command from Horikita Manabu, who was happy to entrust such a task to Nagumo while preparing to launch an attack.

His intuition told him that defeating Miyako would be far from easy.

"I know, you're being long-winded again. We're not kids anymore, is it really necessary to keep emphasizing this? Speaking of which... everyone has to go up and work, so what are you, Nan Yunya, doing there?"

Kiryuin looked at Nagumo with displeasure.

Nan Yun chuckled and pointed to his face, which was covered in bloodstains.

"Of course I'm watching you guys go, otherwise do you think I could withstand another punch from that guy?"

"tsk"

Seeing Nagumo's miserable state, Kiryuin was speechless.

Seeing that no one objected, Nagumo began the countdown.

"3, 2, 1 — Now!!!"

……

Glug glug.

With a surge of emotion in his throat, Kuninori Miyago let out a satisfied sound.

"Ha, Aya, your tea is still the best. Those young people just don't understand the feelings of us old folks."

Sitting cross-legged on the grass, Kuninori Miyago patted his thighs lightly to prevent them from going numb when he got up, and praised Ryata.

"You flatter me. It's just that I've been by the master's side for a while... Shouldn't we really not worry about the young lady?"

Still somewhat uneasy, Liang Tian asked another question.

Kuninori Miyako simply waved his hand casually.

"Although I am very angry about what those two bastards, Jiang Chen and Ayanokouji, did, it is undeniable that they have developed Tianyin's talent to its fullest extent. Ayanokouji, what do you consider to be a genius?"

Kuninori Miyako's question was somewhat abrupt, but Liang Tian still subconsciously opened his mouth to answer.

"A genius is..."

Liang Tian suddenly stopped midway through his sentence. The question seemed very simple, but upon closer examination, it became clear that it was extremely difficult to give a specific answer as to what exactly a 'genius' is.

Are those who excel in academics geniuses? Or are those with exceptional memories geniuses? There are countless types of geniuses, as numerous as the stars in the sky. Besides those who can be called geniuses in terms of mental abilities, there are also physical geniuses, such as those who are naturally fast runners, natural strongmen, and people with strange and unusual abilities.

So... what is genius? After thinking for a while, Liang Tian finally chose a clever way of putting it.

"Geniuses are probably people like this master and young lady."

Kuninori Miyako shook his head, somewhat amused by the answer.

"I never expected you to be so glib these days, genius... I'm just an ordinary person who climbed to an unparalleled peak through a bit of luck and perseverance. But if you mistakenly think that you're superior to everyone else and a so-called genius, you'll fall very hard. As for Tianyin... although she is a genius, she's a different kind of genius."

"An unconventional...genius?"

"That's right. What makes Amane extraordinary is her terrifying physical abilities, as well as her exceptional learning and adaptability. As for other aspects... in my opinion, Amane's level is only average among those geniuses, even a bit worse than the little girl from the Sakayanagi family. But Amane is the type of person who starts early and works hard. From a young age, she has memorized all the knowledge required for university and even further studies. When compared with her peers, people easily mistake Amane for a genius in learning, but the opposite is true."

"Amane simply uses all the time they spend sleeping and playing to study. If she were to take university-level exams now, no matter how smart Sakayanagi is, she probably wouldn't be able to surpass Amane. But once she goes to university, their levels will start to be on par. In the end, if Amane doesn't continue to study, she will inevitably be surpassed sooner or later. That's only natural."

Chapter 457: Are you still alive?

Kuninori Miyako took a sip of tea with a touch of emotion.

Liang Tian and Hayasaka knelt respectfully to the side, listening attentively to the story of Amane.

Tianyin's affairs have always been a top secret within the family. Even Liang Tian, ​​who has protected Tianyin since childhood, doesn't know what Tianyin does or learns every day.

"However, Tianyin's goal isn't to become a scientist or a teacher. Her current knowledge is already sufficient for her needs. What truly makes Tianyin a peerless genius of her time is her terrifying learning ability. She can constantly imitate and learn everything she sees, whether it's fighting techniques or complex chess strategies, she only needs to learn it once. This means that as Tianyin grows older, she will only become stronger and more terrifying. When there is too much to learn, and the human brain can't handle it, it will choose to delete some things that it considers unimportant."

"Amane also lost everything that belonged to her through constant imitation and learning. Her current way of thinking, behavior, and even her smile are all pieced together from imitations of others. As for the real her... perhaps she no longer exists. This is why I can never forgive those two bastards, Jiang Chen and Ayanokouji!!!"

Kuninori Miyako roared angrily.

The two people beside him immediately lowered their heads respectfully to show that they had not heard anything.

After venting his anger, Kuninobu Miyako's complexion gradually returned to normal.

"Sigh, perhaps this is retribution for the Miyako family. There are gains and losses, but it's just pitiful for Amane… If her experience happened to someone else… even death would have been the best escape. Yet she endured it. When Ayanokoji Atsuomi was experimenting on Amane, he discovered the reason she could perfectly utilize her extraordinary learning ability. After undergoing a professional medical examination, Amane's data reportedly exceeded that of ordinary people by several times. And what's most terrifying is that when Amane encounters fatigue or pain, her body gradually becomes excited, like she's been injected with adrenaline—a kind of overexertion without any side effects."

Kuninori Miyago wanted to say something, but after scratching his beard, he gave up.

Because Tianyin's special ability doesn't seem to be very proper, and it seems to be related to her mother, he had heard Jiang Chen complain about things like Tianyin's mother having too strong desires a long time ago.

However, he could never have imagined at the time that there would actually be people with such a special constitution.

When encountering pain and fatigue, it will cause the body to become excited to the point that it will eventually be unable to feel pain and fatigue. Even negative feelings such as hunger and sadness will disappear. Specifically, even if a bone is broken, Tianyin will not react at all, or even be completely unaware that a certain part of her body has been broken.

After learning about it, Kuninori Miyako doubted more than once whether Amane could still be considered human. To be honest, such a special ability doesn't seem to have much use, although it might become very powerful in some aspects, especially for men.

Compared to those geniuses and prodigies with their super high IQ, photographic memory, and groundbreaking creativity, such genius abilities seem somewhat unbalanced.

It could even be described as a bizarre and incongruous situation; Ayanokouji Atsuomi even ironically gave Amane a name.

That's called abnormal constitution.

It's obvious from the implication that Ayanokoji Atsuomi had no good intentions.

Whether it's his extraordinary learning ability or his somewhat unusual and abnormal physique, calling him a genius on his own is a stretch. He can only be described as someone who surpasses ordinary people, but he is still far from being a genius.

However, if two completely unrelated abilities miraculously appear in one person, such as studying day and night, or feeling tired and the body excitedly eliminating fatigue and pain, Tianyin's emotions will become more excited and her concentration will be more focused, while also eliminating negative emotions and hunger.

As a result, Tianyin was able to study day and night without needing to rest, and even she herself did not feel anything unusual.

The hunger test showed that if Tianyin only drank water, she could even fast for more than 60 days.

Why sixty days? Because Miyako no Masatomi dared not continue testing, fearing that something might happen to Tenne and he would be unable to answer to the old man.

The world record for fasting is forty days. Although Tianyin was given life-sustaining nutrients starting thirty days into the test, these nutrients did not help alleviate the feeling of hunger, but Tianyin did not feel it anyway.

Besides being skin and bones, Tianyin was in very good spirits. She had no problem communicating and thinking. However, she had a blank face, as if she was so hungry and tired that she had blocked out her emotions.

After their research, Ayanokouji and his team concluded that Amane seemed to be able to control her body's switches unconsciously. When faced with danger, she would subconsciously block out any abnormal sensations, while her body would secrete large amounts of adrenaline to stimulate the activation of her body's cells.

This allows Amane to display exaggerated performances in all physical activities, because whether it is tension, anxiety, or even the emotion of 'tiredness', it can trigger Amane's body's switch. This allows Amane to shine in various physical trials with her already excellent physical qualities, which is also the reason why Ayanokoji Atsuomi would rather give up his own son than bet on Amane.
