Without Alona, ​​I can only use the airdrop system.

The teacher and the three members of the Ninja Technique Research Department rode at breakneck speed and finally arrived at the intersection of the second level.

There are still quite a few onlookers, but the number of participants is much smaller compared to the first checkpoint.

"Ugh!!! I...we surrender!!!"

At the checkpoint, several students who had formed a team to take on the challenge chose to give up.

"Next! Any more challengers?!" The petite girl leading the group, with her large chest, was full of arrogance.

“Zzzzzz”.

To the left of the petite girl, a short-haired girl holding a shield is standing and taking a break.

"It seems that the three of us together in this level has greatly increased the difficulty. Even if we lower the requirements for them, not many people can pass." Behind the petite girl to her right was a pink-haired, blue-eyed girl, gentle and graceful like a Yamato Nadeshiko: "I don't know why the head of the Onmyo Club suddenly changed the level settings."

"It doesn't matter!" the petite girl exclaimed excitedly. "It's a celebration anyway, let's just have fun!"

The teacher was speechless upon seeing this scene.

Why are all the people from the Cultivation Department here?

In the original story, the second level was guarded by only Tsubaki.

Then, Sansen and Xiaofeng guarded the third and fourth levels respectively.

When it came to their turn, the three of them ran to the second level together.

It's hard to imagine how much more difficult the third and fourth levels will become.

"I never expected it to be the legendary Training Department!!" Man felt immense pressure upon seeing it.

"I've heard that the three members of the Training Club are all incredibly powerful oddballs!" Tsukuyo began her narration. "A girl full of justice who wants to be a graceful lady, a Yamato Nadeshiko who can read other people's minds, and a strange club president who can perform normal activities and even fight in his sleep!"

"I never thought Izuna would be facing them again!" Izuna's eyes lit up. "However, the Izuna of today is not the Izuna of yesterday! My strength is now nine or even ten times greater than before!!"

"Teacher, can we defeat them?" Man asked with some worry.

After all, Man believed that his group's strength was only mediocre, and even with the teacher's help, they would probably have a hard time winning against the training club with real skills.

"Don't worry, those three aren't difficult to deal with." The teacher smiled at the three of them and encouraged them, "Listen to my instructions, and I will find the right opportunity to use the power of adults to help you."

Despite saying that, the teacher didn't underestimate the three students from the training department; instead, her mind raced as she considered countermeasures:

To deal with the three members of the Training Department, we definitely can't use Suzuran's Foxfire Ephemeral as we did with the Festival Operations Department.

In other words, following the previous plan of using Foxfire to hold off Tsubaki while Izuna flanked Kaede and Mimori is not very realistic.

Leaving aside Tsubaki's defensive capabilities, Mimori and Kaede are also quite skilled in combat. If Izuna tries to launch a surprise attack alone, it will inevitably attract the support of the other two. In that case, Izuna will have a hard time dealing with two opponents at once.

And then there's Tsubaki. Although she carries a rather large shield, she's quite fast, and she can definitely provide cover for Mimori and Kaede.

Overall, the Training Club's strength is at least in the upper-middle range in the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons; underestimating them will only lead to losses.

Fortunately, the teacher has come up with a more feasible method.

"Ah, it's the teacher!!"

Mimori from the training club noticed the arrival of their teacher and the others and smiled. Kaede was even more excited and quickly waved to the teacher.

Even Tsubaki, who had been sleeping, opened her eyes after hearing the teacher's voice.

The teacher and the three members of the Ninjutsu Club arrived in front of the Training Club.

After exchanging pleasantries, the two sides got down to business.

"Are you here to challenge us too?" Mimori concluded after observing.

"Of course," the teacher nodded.

"Although it's temporary, I never thought I'd be on the opposite side of the teacher one day." Mimori smiled helplessly, then her expression turned serious. "But even if it's the teacher, we won't go easy on you~."

"Teachers, you'd better be careful." Tsubaki's words were still as slow and leisurely as ever. "My defenses won't be so easily breached~."

"Hehe, let me see the strength of everyone in the Ninjutsu Research Club!" Feng said with an eager expression.

"Yes, just do your best." The teacher nodded with a smile. "We won't go easy on you."

Then, both sides retreated and took their positions.

The training club's formation was as the teacher had predicted: Tsubaki was at the front, Mimori was on one side, and Kaede was hiding behind Tsubaki. Because of her small size, Kaede was completely invisible from behind Tsubaki and could not be hit at all.

On the ninja club side, as arranged by the teacher, the tallest member, Tsukuyo, led the charge, with Mitsuru and Izuna positioned on either side of her.

Once everything was ready, the two sides began exchanging fire.

"Everyone, unleash your strongest attacks and focus fire on the Camellia first!!"

The teacher's words left both of them dumbfounded.

Ignoring the doubts of others, the teacher equipped himself with Terran weapons.

"Rhodes Island Operator First Snow, Natural Awe, Armament Completed."

Suddenly, the teacher's eyes shone with a deep blue light, and behind him seemed to be a giant beast breathing cold air, roaring and emitting a faint blue light.

The moment the blue light radiated onto the three members of the training department, they felt their bodies suddenly turn cold.

Meanwhile, after a brief moment of confusion, the three members of the ninja club did not question their teacher's arrangements and launched an all-out attack!

"Secret Technique! Exploding Shuriken!"

"Full-Flow Ninja Art - Blazing Fire Shuriken!!"

"Concentrate...concentrate...!"

A barrage of ninja tools and bullets rained down, all aimed at Tsubaki!

The teacher's aggressive tactics caught the three members of the training department off guard.

They thought the teacher's goal was to have Tsukuyomi and Mitsuru attract Tsubaki's attention, and then Izuna would sneak up behind them to ambush Mimori and Kaede in the back row.

As a result, the teacher directly ordered the three members of the ninja club to focus their attacks on Tsubaki, who was the most resilient.

But it did have an effect, and it greatly exceeded their expectations.

The weakening ability the teacher used on them was terrifying; Tsubaki, who could originally hold out for a long time, started to give out after a short while.

"Waaaaah, it's so cold and it hurts so much!! Why do these bullets suddenly hurt so much!!!"

After being weakened by her teacher, Tsubaki was subjected to several concentrated attacks from the Ninja Research Department and was quickly defeated.

The students watching stared in disbelief, their eyes wide, and began to discuss.

"No...no way?!"

"Are they facing the same challenge as us?"

"Who would have thought that our Sleeping Beauty, whose skin is practically impervious to damage, would actually..."

"Is this the power of the teacher? Perhaps he helped and assisted the student to achieve that effect?"

"That's impossible. The teacher was just giving on-site instructions. This must be the ninjas' hidden true strength!"

......

Those who were just watching the show knew best how difficult it was to defeat Sleeping Beauty Chun. Many of the participating students had almost run out of ammunition but still couldn't budge Chun an inch!

This was under the premise of letting them win; otherwise, these students would have been defeated by Mimori and Kaede, who were under cover.

As a result, the ninja team led by the teacher actually gave Tsubaki a good beating!

Mimori and Kaede, seeing that Tsubaki couldn't withstand it, braved the strange cold and the firepower of the ninja research department to come out and provide support.

But even Chun could hardly withstand it, let alone them?

In the end, the three members of the training department were severely suppressed and defeated.

After the battle ended, the teacher withdrew the Terra weapons.

The students watching were all speechless, finding it hard to believe that the training department had suffered such a crushing defeat.

"Ju... how could he win so easily?"

"The strength of ninjas is terrifying!"

"As expected of ninjas from the Hyakki Yagyō Academy, they're incredibly strong!"

"Go for it, ninjas! We believe you can rescue the princess!!!"

.......

Michiru and Tsukuyo from the Ninja Research and Development Department couldn't believe that their teacher could provide such great assistance, actually defeating the Training Department.

Only Izuna, who had been instructed by the teacher before, happily rushed to the teacher to claim credit, and was then patted on the head by the teacher.

Only she knew that, in addition to their own strength, their success was entirely due to their teacher's command and assistance.

Chun has fallen asleep and seems to be recovering.

It seems the attack just now really hurt her badly.

"Ugh... I lost." Feng was unwilling, but had to accept reality.

"Congratulations, teacher, and everyone in the Ninja Development Club." Seeing that Tsubaki was temporarily asleep, Mimori announced the results to the teacher and the others, "You've passed the second stage. Please continue!"

"Yes, thank you, Mimori, but before that, let me help you recover."

After the teacher finished speaking, he treated the three people in the cultivation department.

"So warm..." Chun woke up while being treated by her teacher. Her face was rosy, and she pressed her face close to the teacher's green-glowing hand, looking very comfortable. "The adult's... it feels so good~."

"Um, Tsubaki, please don't say things that could be misunderstood..."

After Chun was cured, the teacher treated Sansen and Feng separately.

"Thank you, teacher." Mimori smiled at the teacher. "You are such a considerate person."

"Thank you for the treatment, teacher!" Feng was overjoyed. "Feng, you're back to life!"

After treating the three members of the training club, the teacher bid farewell to the three members of the ninjutsu research club and then headed to the next checkpoint.

Meanwhile, in an office of the Yin-Yang Department.

"As expected of the teacher, he was able to lead the three members of the Ninjutsu Research and Development Department to defeat the Festival Operations Department and the Training Department in a short period of time. His strength is truly terrifying."

"Is this all the people in your Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons) guild are capable of?" Makoto's tone was full of sarcasm. "So utterly pathetic."

"Well, after all, the strongest characters in the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons) won't participate in this event, so there's nothing we can do about it~." Nia chuckled nonchalantly, "Then the next two challenges will be the strong opponents that Speaker Makoto invited~."

“Hehehehe…” Makoto’s smile was full of confidence. “Minister Nia, let me show you the capabilities of our Gehenna Club.”

Makoto believed that the people she had hired this time, who had come at a great cost, were all people who could give even the strongest Hina a headache!

"I'm looking forward to it."

Nia rested her chin on her closed folding fan, then looked at the live video recording in front of her with Makoto.

"Teacher, please don't let me down~."
