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

"Well... now that you mention it, it is indeed good news."

Hayasaka wasn't interested in who was left in the Vision Hut, but she also sensed the tense atmosphere and knew that Nanase didn't care whether the information was valuable or not; she was trying to avoid conflict among the first-year students by changing the subject.

Therefore, Hayasaka readily admitted that this information had some value. In this way, although Masahiko lost four special points for failing the challenge, from another perspective, he only needed four special points to know that a super general of the opponent could not appear on the front line. No matter how you look at it, it should be a gain. Even Baoquan could not take this opportunity to attack Masahiko.

"That's true, but... it seems that the people in the class... as you all know, they don't care about strategy or tactics, so it's a bit difficult to appease them."

There were no idiots among us. If some people didn't realize it at first, they all could see later that Hayasaka and Nanase were putting on a show. Since someone was willing to cooperate, no one else wanted to be the idiot who couldn't read the room.

However, some people are willing to turn a blind eye, while others are not.

"Utsunomiya-kun, do you really enjoy being annoying? Can't you just shut up a bit?"

Faced with Utsunomiya's challenge, Amasawa, who had been focused on fixing his manicure, suddenly interrupted.

"Tianze, are you planning to cover this up...?"

"If I remember correctly, only seven people from your first-year Class C passed this special exam, right?"

Amaze's sarcastic question made Tsubaki Sakura raise an eyebrow and reach out to tug at Utsunomiya beside her.

But the latter was clearly unwilling to be overwhelmed by Tianze's imposing manner.

"So what if it is? With me, Chun, and Sangyuan, the three of us are enough. The three of us here are just like the entire Class C is here."

Surprisingly, no one refuted Utsunomiya's seemingly arrogant words, because he was telling the truth. With stats on paper comparable to Yagami and even an overall score only lower than Masahiko's, Utsunomiya was qualified to say such things. Tsubaki Sakura's overall abilities perfectly matched the level expected of a Class C student.

However, anyone familiar with Class C knows that Tsubaki Sakura is the strategist of Class C. Even Utsunomiya is willing to follow Tsubaki Sakura's orders on important matters, which means she is obviously hiding her strength. According to Hayasaka's assessment, her true strength is probably the strongest among the first-year students in terms of intelligence, because she only took two days to get Utsunomiya, a strong, smart but impulsive guy, to integrate the entire first-year Class C.

No matter how you look at it, it's probably all thanks to Tsubaki Sakurako.

As for Mai Kuwazono, needless to say, although she herself suffers from asthma, which prevents her from engaging in strenuous exercise and training, making her physically weak and inferior to that of an ordinary student, coupled with her mediocre academic performance, her overall ability is even ranked at the bottom of the entire grade.

However, Sangyuan's gun skills were incredibly fierce. Even Albert, a second-year student, was almost defeated by Sangyuan. In their private sparring sessions, Sangyuan could even suppress Hayasaka, a professional guard, for several minutes in a short period of time.

This shows how fierce his marksmanship is. Unfortunately, the school does not have any clubs related to marksmanship, which has kept Sangyuan's reputation unknown. If it weren't for being brought out as a hidden trump card at the forest school, even Sangyuan's own classmates would not know that the usually gentle and weak Sangyuan actually has an incredibly strong side.

In melee combat, especially with long weapons, Sangyuan is definitely the strongest among the first and second-year students.

The three of them together perfectly complemented each other's weaknesses, which explains why Utsunomiya had such confidence.

but…….

"Hmph, who asked you that? I meant that according to the regulations, if the construction of the granary cannot be completed today, you cannot buy bento boxes and ingredients, which means you will go hungry."

Tianze let out a disdainful snort from his nose, and then casually opened his mouth, striking straight at the heart of Class C in the first year.

Both Utsunomiya and Tsubaki Sakurako's expressions changed drastically in an instant.

Since there are four mountains near base A, it means that each class has to guard one mountain. Class C, the first-year class with the fewest members, is the class with the greatest defensive pressure because there is a small hut at the foot of the mountain, and they have to send someone to guard it.

This means that only six people remain on the mountain for defense, half of whom are girls, so the defensive pressure is self-evident.

Furthermore, with only six workers remaining and two currently in a meeting, it is absolutely impossible for Class C of Grade 1 to complete the construction of the granary.

According to the rules, classes that fail to complete the construction of the granary on the first day will be permanently disqualified from purchasing food and lunchboxes.

This also means that if they don't try to steal it, they can only wait for help from other classes, especially if they offend Class A, which has the most members...

Utsunomiya sat back down in his seat without saying a word, his face ashen.

Utsunomiya can still distinguish between verbal sparring and the practicalities of making a living.

Seeing that Utsunomiya had finally given in, Amasawa was too lazy to pursue the matter any further. Instead, he continued to fix his manicure, returning to his previous state of complete indifference to his surroundings.

After Hayasaka saw that no one wanted to speak or say anything, she directly announced the disbandment.

If the initial battle goes poorly, then the only option is to reinforce the area under your responsibility and prepare for a long-term battle.

No one objected to Hayasaka's arrangement, so as soon as Hayasaka announced the dismissal, everyone tacitly and quickly left Class A's defense point and returned to their respective class's assigned area.

It is worth mentioning that Hayasaka, as the main commander, was assigned a defensive area of ​​just a small hill because Class B had the third fewest students. Hayasaka even needed to use Class A's territory to find a suitable meeting place if he wanted to hold a meeting or make a notification.

After everyone had left, Tianze planned to go back and take a nap. He was very annoyed that he had to sit down and listen to those guys bickering after climbing the mountain for half the morning.

"The annoying guys are all gone, so I'm going to rest too. Meetings are exhausting."

Tianze stretched lazily and walked towards his single tent, but before he had taken two steps, he heard Jiang Yan's voice behind him.

"Thanks……"

Jiang Yan's sudden expression of gratitude made Tianze pause in his steps.

"Forget about thanking me. Besides wanting to uphold the dignity of Class A, the other reason I spoke up for you is—you're her younger brother, hehe~"

Tianze smiled mischievously and continued walking towards his tent.

“...Sister Tianyin”.

……

8 PM.

The night sky was shrouded in dark clouds, blocking out the moonlight. The world below the clouds was pitch black. Although it wasn't pitch black, it was still difficult to see clearly from several meters away.

The base of Class B was brightly lit, with several large bonfires illuminating the camp of dozens of people as if it were daytime. Students from different classes sat around the bonfires in small circles.

Some students were chatting, some were playing cards together, and others were playing social games or performing talents.

Longyuan walked alone in the shadows near the campfire.

Seeing the C-class students laughing uproariously at the joke, Ryuen's icy expression softened slightly.

Even though the people present were not from the same class and did not know each other, it was a minor matter. Some people who had a strained relationship due to past competition were now sitting together.

For a moment, I felt a sense of unreality amidst the laughter and joy of Dragon Garden.

This is something he can't do no matter how hard he tries.

But those people were just chatting and playing games together; Long Yuanxiang could do something like that too.

But…….

Why don't the students in Class C show him that relaxed and carefree smile?

What exactly is the problem?

Long Yuan felt inexplicably irritable, but couldn't find the source of this irritation, which undoubtedly made him feel even worse.

However, the restlessness in his heart did not stop Long Yuan's steps. Long Yuan soon stopped in front of a small tent and then reached out and shook the small bell hanging outside the tent.

The person inside the tent gasped in surprise upon noticing the arrival of outsiders.

After a while, Tianyin finally emerged from the tent, looking somewhat disheveled.

Seeing Tianyin covered in sweat, Longyuan decided not to ask her what she had just done inside.

"Did you need something from me?"

"Time is up."

Long Yuan showed Tian Yin the time displayed on the bracelet.

The time for the operation that Tianyin and he had agreed upon had arrived.

"Sigh, I should have arranged to meet later. Fanbo was almost there..."

"what?"

"It's none of your business. Go on, it's none of your concern after this. I'll show those first-graders what I'm capable of."

Long Yuan nodded upon hearing this.

He still believed in Tianyin's strength.

Just as the two were talking, Ichinose quietly peeked her little head out of the tent.

"Tianyin, are you going to..."

"Get your matter resolved quickly, don't waste time."

When Ryuen saw that Ichinose had something to say to Amane, he told Amane not to waste time and then turned and left.

Only Ichinose and Amane remained at the scene.

"I'll be right back."

"Tianyin...be careful, I'm waiting for you..."

As Ichinose spoke, her face turned red, and her voice grew softer and softer. Amane had to get very close to Ichinose's lips to barely hear what she was saying.

Ichinose looked at Amane, who was so close to him, and after glancing around to make sure no one was watching, he quickly kissed Amane on the cheek.

"Fanbo, you ambushed me! I'll get my revenge!"

Before Amane could even hug Ichinose and tease her properly, Ichinose, as if he already knew what Amane was going to do, ran back to his tent after kissing her.

"If you want to get 'revenge', then hurry up and go. After you return victorious, you can take your revenge on me however you want."

After giving Amane a shy smile, Ichinose quickly retreated back into the tent.

Tianyin was left alone outside the tent, taking deep breaths.

"Calm down, calm down, you must calm down!!"

Tianyin kept telling herself, as if trying to hypnotize herself, fearing that once the flame of desire in her heart was ignited, it would never be able to be extinguished.

In the instant her emotions calmed down, Tianyin's eyes no longer held any lingering affection.

She was determined to carry out this plan seriously; Tianyin intended to give the first-graders a little shock.

Outpost A, Class C of Grade 1 defends the hill.

Because Class C's defenses were too weak, Jiang Yan specially sent Amamiya, the third-ranked fighter in the class after Tian Ze, to assist Class C in their defense. Based on Jiang Yan's understanding of Tian Yin, he was convinced that Tian Yin would never sit idly by while the morale of the first-year students was damaged. The most likely scenario was that they would launch an attack on a class at night.

After analyzing the number of students, defensive strength, and geographical location of each class, Jiang Yan concluded that Class C was the most likely class to be attacked by Tianyin. Even if the defensive strength of those six people were to come together, it would probably not be enough for Tianyin to warm up.

To reinforce the defenses of Class C, Jiang Yan originally planned to personally oversee the class. With him there, along with the members of Class A and Class C, the top combat force would consist of at least three people: Jiang Yan, Utsunomiya, and Kuwazono. Whether they could defeat Amane was still unknown, but restraining Amane would definitely not be a problem. Then, the others could swarm in and attack with paintballs. Even if there were some casualties, as long as Amane could be kept here, it would be a huge gain.

But before giving the order, Yan was reminded by a casual remark from Tianze.

"Class C? Why is Tianyin attacking Class C?"

"Of course, it's because Class C's defense is weak..."

"But even you, Jiang Yan, knew to send more people to protect the weakest class, C. How could Tian Yin not have thought of that? If, and I mean if, she anticipated that you would be lying in ambush in class C tonight, which class would Tian Yin attack?"

Tianze's words immediately jolted Jiang Yan awake. He had almost forgotten that Tianyin's strength was above his own, which meant that Tianyin might have already seen everything he had calculated.

If Amane guessed that Jiang Yan would set a trap in Class C of the first year, waiting for her to walk into it, where would Amane choose to attack?

After thinking it over, Jiang Yan finally set his sights on Class B of the first year.

A total of 59 first-year students passed the special training and final assessment.

Class A of Grade 1 has 19 students.

Class B of Grade 1 has 12 students.

There are 7 students in Class C of Grade 1.

Class D of Grade 1 has 21 students.

In terms of numbers, Class C of the first year is undoubtedly the weakest class. However, the people who remain in this class are not easy to deal with. In addition, Jiang Yan is likely to send people to assist in the defense and ambush. Jiang Yan judged that if he were Tianyin, the combat target would definitely be Class B of the first year and Class A of the first year.

Let's start with Class A of the first year. The reason why Jiang Yan thought that Tian Yin might attack Class A was because, as the class leader of Class A, Jiang Yan lost a match on the first day of the special exam. For the other classes in the second year, this was actually insignificant.

This was particularly demoralizing for Class A of the first year. The thought that even the strongest student in their class was no match for the second-year students made them wonder how ordinary students like them could possibly deal with them.

Therefore, when faced with a sudden attack, there is a possibility of a stampede. Once the situation gets out of control, there is a high possibility of trampling, making it impossible to organize an effective defense. In addition, since Yan is going to take people to Class C of the first year to supplement the defense personnel, the number of people left behind will naturally not be too many, which reduces the difficulty of the attack.

However, Jiang Yan trusted Tian Ze completely. As long as Tian Ze could make good use of the terrain where Class A was located, Tian Yin would never be able to break through the camp by himself. At worst, everyone could retreat to the granary and rely on a dozen people to defend each other. Tian Yin would definitely not be able to take over the relatively strong granary in a short period of time.

Of course, it would be even better if they could find Tianyin's whereabouts in advance. For this reason, Jiang Yan specially left the few careful people to Tianze to prevent the situation of being caught off guard and having their home raided. He himself went to Class B of the first year alone to keep watch, and let Amamiya take the five martial arts students from Class A of the first year to Class C of the first year.

Although this might seem to lead to a further dispersion of the already insufficient manpower, Jiang Yan considered it to be an absolutely perfect arrangement.

The reason he went to Class B was naturally because Class B had the second fewest students, and Hayasaka, the main general of the main camp, was still there. If Amane were to attack, the probability of launching a decapitation strike might even be greater than the probability of attacking Class C.

And don't be fooled by the fact that he came here alone. The fighting strength of Class 1-B is much fiercer than that of other classes. Yagami and Hayasaka are both top-notch talents skilled in combat. In addition, all the members of Class 2-B except Hayasaka are male. Furthermore, it would be more than enough for Masahiko to defend against Amane.

On Class C's side, Amamiya led five people to join forces with Utsunomiya and the others. After the reunion, there would be a total of more than ten people. He didn't expect them to defeat Amane, as long as they could hold Amane back, he could immediately gather all the nearby first-year students to rush to their aid.

With this, the defensive measures at the three potential attack points of Tianyin were all completed, and he could begin to close in once Tianyin launched its attack.

The thought of potentially facing Tianyin tonight made Jiang Yan feel a surge of excitement.

As for why Masahiko didn't consider the possibility of Class D being attacked throughout the entire operation? With Hosen and Nanase in command, plus over twenty defenders, the probability of Koyama Amane launching an attack was simply too low.
