Practical teaching: Starting from the soul traveling through Dragon Garden

Chapter 32 Ibuki Got Beaten Again
"Katsuragi, how long are you going to do nothing?"

Hashimoto reprimanded Katsuragi who had been sitting in the tent without taking any action. Although Hashimoto belonged to the Sakayanagi faction, he also cared about the interests of the class. Since the people of the Katsuragi faction did not dare to question Katsuragi, he would be the bad guy.

The other members of the Katsuragi faction were inevitably shaken. Five days had passed, and apart from arranging daily patrols and caring about everyone's food and daily life, Katsuragi had not adopted any strategies or actions. It was as if he really treated this exam as a camping game.

"We have gained enough benefits in this game. All you need to do is behave yourself." Facing Hashimoto's questioning, Katsuragi remained calm, but the other students were not aware of the deal between Katsuragi and Ryuen, and had not seen anything about the huge benefits that Katsuragi mentioned.

Therefore, the atmosphere in the class was very tense, and the people from the Sakayanagi faction could not pose any real threat to Katsuragi because of the absence of Sakayanagi Arisu.

"Are you really qualified to be our leader? Why don't you step down and let Sakayanagi Arisu take power?" Hashimoto was still attacking Katsuragi.

This statement angered the Katsuragi faction, and many students were ready to make a move, but Katsuragi stopped them with his hand: "Arisu Sakayanagi cannot take part in the uninhabited island exam. She should have told you before the exam that everything in the exam must be under my command. Are you going to disobey Sakayanagi?"

"Bah, turtle!" Hashimoto was very angry, but had nothing to say. Sakayanagi Arisu did say that he would obey Katsuragi's orders during the exam.

"Katsuragi, what are the huge benefits you are talking about?" Katsuragi's younger brother Yahiko Totsuka couldn't help but ask.

"I'll tell you after the exam. It's still confidential now." Katsuragi didn't want to say more. The fewer people who knew about his deal with Ryuuen, the better.

At this time, the students in Class C were already living a self-disciplined life on the ship, and except for Manabe, the other students were quite satisfied with the exam.

That night, Manabe walked into Ryuen's bedroom with a nervous mood. Ryuen didn't ask anything and didn't use violence. He just asked Manabe to kneel in front of him and read a book. After two hours, Manabe's legs were numb and his knees were red, but he didn't concentrate on reading the book at all.

Then Ryuen let her go back, but her legs were too numb, so Ryuen called Moroto Rika and Yamashita Saki to carry her back.

Ichinose from Class B decided to continue with the exam under the guidance of Hoshinomiya. She and Shiranami abandoned all the food and water in the camp and started a new life.

These days are Bai Bo’s happiest time.

Although life was difficult for both of them, the time they spent together looking for wild fruits, eating together, sleeping together, and staying together all day was like heaven to Shiranami. There was only Shiranami in Ichinose's eyes, and they ran the broken class like a couple.

“How can I guess the leaders of other classes?” Ichinose was troubled.

"It doesn't matter if you can't guess it." Shiraha washed a purple wild fruit, wiped it, took a bite himself to make sure it was not poisonous, and then stuffed it into Ichinose's mouth.

These days, everything Ichinose eats and drinks has to pass through Shiranami's mouth first: "Don't be so careful. I ate this fruit yesterday. It's not poisonous."

Ichinose said this while chewing the sour and sweet wild fruit.

"That won't work. This fruit doesn't grow on the same tree as yesterday's. What if this one is poisonous? It's better to be cautious."

Shiranami said this and Ichinose could only accept it. In fact, Ichinose was not that resistant to the saliva of girls. After all, Ichinose's family was not well-off before, and it was common for him to eat an apple with his sister.

Time passed quietly, and when it came to the last night, it was still a moonlit night with sparse stars.

It's time to set a trap for Ibuki.

Ayanokouji deliberately revealed a flaw to let Ibuki realize that he came to see Horikita secretly.

"What's the matter?" Horikita didn't know why Ayanokouji came to see her at this time, but she didn't dare to take it lightly. Ayanokouji's strength that he deliberately exposed before made Horikita very concerned about him.

Seeing Horikita's attitude, Ayanokouji was very satisfied: "I'll return the magnetic card to you."

"Why are you returning it to me at this time?" Horikita took the magnetic card from Ayanokouji.

"During this period, Ibuki has searched the girls' side, and now she should search the boys' side. It's not safe to leave the magnetic card with me. It's safer to put it in your hands now. After all, the most dangerous place is the safest." Ayanokouji explained patiently. "Indeed." Horikita spoke a little weakly.

"Are you still not well?"

A tone of concern that didn't seem like concern came out of Ayanokouji's mouth.

"I felt much better after taking the medicine the day before yesterday, but I felt even more dizzy after taking a few more yesterday."

Of course she would faint, because Ayanokouji added a few more herbs to the medicine to ensure that Horikita would faint on the last day.

However, unlike the original work, Ayanokouji did not tell Horikita his strategy, which means that Horikita did not know that the leader of the class would be changed in the end.

The reason why she didn't tell Horikita was simply because Ayanokouji was wary of her. She was too close to Ryuuen and would be easily exposed.

Ayanokouji thought that Ryuen paid so much attention to him because he was very close to Horikita. If, as the rumors said, Ryuen liked Horikita, then boys who were close to Horikita would naturally attract Ryuen's attention. Ayanokouji knew this common sense.

Although she couldn't hear the conversation between Ayanokouji and Horikita from a distance, she could clearly see the magnetic card in Horikita's hand under the moonlight!

The magnetic card was in Horikita's hand. Ibuki's excited heart and trembling hands finally found it. For the sake of this magnetic card, Ibuki had not slept well since she came to the island.

At midnight, once again, Ibuki stole Horikita's magnetic card and fled to the woods again, but this time she took her own schoolbag with her, and this time she would not come back.

Horikita noticed Ibuki's movements, but her body felt heavy and her eyelids were difficult to open. Finally, Horikita had to bite her lip to wake herself up, put on a coat, and went after Ibuki.

This time Horikita did not hide herself, and Ibuki also noticed someone behind her.

Sneak attack!

Ibuki hid behind a tree, and when Horikita came close, he kicked her, but Horikita caught her kick with both hands.

"Give me back the magnetic card." Horikita's voice was a little hoarse.

"Impossible!" Ibuki did a spinning kick while supporting himself on one foot.

Horikita's combat power is higher than Ibuki's, but Horikita has a debuff from Ayanokouji, and it is difficult for her to withstand Ibuki's random punches for a while.

After throwing punches more than ten times, Horikita still revealed a flaw. Ibuki kicked Horikita on the head. Although Horikita used his hands to relieve the force, he still fainted on the ground.

Just when Ibuki got rid of the frustration of the past few days and was in a good mood and ready to leave, Ayanokouji appeared in front of Ibuki.

"I advise you to get out of the way! Otherwise, you will lie on the ground like Horikita!" Ibuki was quite confident at this time, and completely looked down on Ayanokouji who seemed to have no fighting power.

But the next second after she finished speaking, her head hit the ground, and Ayanokouji stepped on Ibuki's back: "Don't move, the next kick will cripple you."

With her spine pressed down, Ibuki broke out in cold sweats. The oppressive feeling of facing death made her dare not breathe. Only after she watched Ayanokouji take the magnetic card from her hand and leave with Horikita on his back did Ibuki dare to sit up from the ground.

There was a small cut on his neck by a branch on the ground. Ibuki reached out to wipe it, and the light red blood dried up on his hand in an instant. Ibuki cried, but he didn't feel sad at all, just tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.

“I don’t think I’m that strong.”

Wiping the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, Ibuki spent the cold night under a tree holding his schoolbag.
