Ke Bing reached out a hand, tucked the stray hairs behind her ear, wiped the sweat from her brow, and continued to work on the hole below while bending over.
She and Luo Xiaoli didn't dig a very big pit, but they did work on making it deep enough to sink one foot in.
To be honest, these three women still have a conscience; they aren't the kind of people who are so evil as to be utterly despicable.
Ke Bing deliberately lay down on the ground and shoveled the bottom of the pit flat. If they had intended to hurt Adela, they probably would have made the bottom cone-shaped, so that anyone who stepped in would suffer ankle injuries, which could even affect their subsequent lessons.
They just wanted to teach Adela a lesson so she wouldn't bully her classmates anymore.
More accurately, they were simply fighting back.
After finishing, Luo Xiaoli stood up and brushed the dirt off her body.
"Wait a minute, I'll get some fallen leaves to cover the hole."
"Then I'll go and dump the soil."
Ke Bing just went to the riverbank and picked a leaf the size of her cheek, then poured all the fresh soil on it.
The three worked together, and the plan progressed very quickly. While they were busy, the clever Zhao Xuerou had already finished weaving the vines and hid them behind the tree.
Here's a brief snapshot.
Woman A will become bait, going to find Adela. Once found, she will provoke her in various ways to enrage her.
Then A will sprint at top speed, running as fast as he can to the finish line. At this time, B Ke Bing, the only heavyweight among the three (she is not fat, compared to the other two), will hide near the trap and wait for the right moment to strike.
The other C is holding a vine in his hand.
Enraged and losing her temper, Adela rushed towards the trap, tripped, and yelled, "Ah! I've fallen for it!" before falling to the ground.
Upon receiving the signal, Ke Bing sprinted out at top speed, plopped down on the other person, and grabbed their hands, locking them firmly in place.
C emerged from behind the tree like a nimble rabbit, a wicked smile on his face, and tied the knot of the vine around Adela's foot, tightening it!
Ke Bing stood up, and at that moment Adela was freed from her restraints. She regained her senses from the shock of the fall, and her anger intensified. She struggled to her feet and charged at the nearest person like a mad dog.
However, she would find herself pulled back in mid-air, falling to the ground in a daze, watching as the three women made all sorts of humiliating faces at her, then walked away disdainfully, their backs gleaming with the glory of victors.
As the sun rises, around ten o'clock, the hazy yet warm sunlight adds to their spirits.
The students, arriving at the finish line one after another, saw Adela trapped like a caged animal and exclaimed, "What three genius women! Going against them will never end well! From now on, the witch trio will be my idols!"
Afterwards, Adela realized her overestimation of her abilities. She ran to Zhao Xuerou crying, hugged her leg, and said pitifully, "Sister Xiaorou, I was wrong. I will never bully you again."
Zhao Xuerou would stand with her hands on her hips and laugh wildly three times, her laughter echoing among the buildings of the Federation, striking fear into the hearts of countless people.
Okay, the second half is all Zhao Xuerou's imagination. She turned to the side, and Ke Bing and Xiao Li, who had just finished their work, looked at her with puzzled expressions as she smiled wickedly, wondering what had gotten into this woman this time.
"So here's the question: who will go and bait us?" Xiao Bing asked.
"I can't, I'm a bit tired, I can't outrun Adela, then the plan will fail."
"I can't do that either. I'm carrying too much of a burden, and I've already lost in terms of speed."
She exchanged a few words with Xiao Li, and then their gazes both fell on Zhao Xuerou.
"Me?? Are you kidding me? I'm an intelligence-based player, not a physical one." She was full of resistance and waved her hands repeatedly.
"The minority obeys the majority. Now you have two votes, so it's decided that you're the one."
"Hey, this isn't fair! I'm protesting!"
Five minutes later, Zhao Xuerou, her face contorted with grief, set off alone to find Adela...
Unexpectedly, many of the students who came to the Federation were athletic athletes. In just forty minutes, someone appeared not far from the finish line. Judging from the figure of that boy, he must be a regular athlete and very familiar with the northern region. He made no obstacles along the way.
Women are slightly less physically strong and faster. Adela is among the top in this category. However, she expended a lot of energy in the complex terrain. Coupled with her strong competitive spirit, she did not slow down along the way, wanting to at least win the title of the best woman.
As she neared the finish line, she was breathing rapidly through both her mouth and nose, her forehead covered in sweat. In the somewhat chilly woods, a thin mist rose above her head, obscuring her vision.
With a little more effort, victory is within reach.
Adèle's narrow eyes sparkled, her long flaxen hair tied up and whipping through the air like a horse's tail.
She walked through the woods, and before her lay a wide, flat road. She didn't know if she would have the strength to sprint the last stretch, but in any case, this would be the easiest part of the journey, just like entering the coniferous forest.
Suddenly, a figure appeared out of the road and blocked her way.
Adela paused, slowed her pace, and looked the other person up and down.
When she saw his face clearly, a hint of surprise arose in her heart.
