In this crossover anime, I fight against the supernatural in my everyday world.

.......

After entering the private Shuchiin Academy, the demeanor of the Sobu High School teachers and students was noticeably different from when they were standing at the main gate.

Although still amazed by the university's various facilities, the initial surprise and shock, like a country bumpkin visiting the Grand View Garden, has transformed into the strutting confidence of a superior inspecting the lower levels.

Noticing this, Kaguya Shinomiya remained outwardly calm, but inwardly she had a new assessment of Yohoshi.

"They are skilled at using words to move people and change the atmosphere in the room."

As the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya Foundation, Kaguya Shinomiya received professional training from a young age on how to guide others' thoughts through words and expressions.

Those who can control people's hearts and the direction of public opinion are those who wield truly powerful forces.

Having grown up in the environment of the Shinomiya Foundation, Kaguya Shinomiya always harbors an unconscious contempt for people she meets for the first time, and in her heart, she calculates the other person's value to her.

But this time, it's different.

Kaguya Shinomiya couldn't bring herself to feel contempt for the person of the same age beside her.

Because of what Ye Xing had just said, she had subconsciously put herself in the position of the challenger.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the teaching building where the examination was to be held, everyone could see that the first-year students of Shuchiin Academy had been waiting there for quite some time.

The eyes of hundreds of students opposite them were all focused on Yosei, who was standing next to Kaguya Shinomiya.

"That's... a genius from Soubu High School?"

"He is very handsome, but unfortunately, his good looks don't add any points."

"What kind of geniuses can emerge from a mere General Martial Arts Academy?"

"Even if he was originally a genius, he chose such a path of self-degradation and ultimately became a mediocre person."

"Does he really think he can beat Kaguya-sama in the joint exam?"

"They're really overestimating themselves."

........

Most of the students at the private Shuchiin Academy were confident and didn't take any of the students from Soubu High School, including Yoruhoshi, seriously.

First place in the provincial joint entrance exam for cherry blossoms?

He is indeed a true genius.

Even a genius cannot bridge the gap in teaching staff and educational level between Shuchiin and Sobu High School.

"Welcome, everyone."

A middle-aged woman dressed in a suit and wearing gold-rimmed glasses stood in front of the group from Zongwu High School.

With an undisguised arrogance between her brows, she slowly began to speak.

"Welcome to Shuchiin Academy, the best private high school in Sakura Prefecture."

"Next..."

Before the middle-aged woman could finish speaking, Yoruichi, who was standing at the very front with Kaguya Shinomiya, chuckled and shook her head, interrupting her.

"Wait a moment."

"how?"

Ye Xing stared directly into the middle-aged woman's eyes, making no attempt to hide his contempt.

"Is Shuchiin University the best high school in the cherry blossom prefecture?"

The middle-aged woman frowned slightly and snorted coldly.

"If it's not our Shuchiin Academy, could it be your Soubu High School?"

Ye Xing maintained her friendly smile, but uttered a highly aggressive statement.

"Old Deng, I think you're going through menopause, you're a bit out of it."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the venue.

Old Deng?

The students of Shuchiin were filled with righteous indignation.

Isn't this guy a bit too arrogant?

Ye Xing didn't give the middle-aged woman a chance to speak and continued talking on his own.

"I'm the top-ranked student in this year's class..."

Immediately afterwards, Yoruhoshi pulled Hiratsuka Shizuka, who was standing behind him, aside and said with a smile.

"And the person next to me is the best teacher in Sakura Province."

"You're number one in both aspects. Our Zongwu High School isn't the best high school. Could it be your Xiuzhi Academy?"

"Why should I? Is it because you occupy a large area, or because your name is long?"

Upon hearing these words, the most surprised people in the room were not the teachers and students of Shuchiin Academy.

Instead, it was Hiratsuka Shizuka who was pulled to Yohoshi's side.

Although in private, the other party had told her that he thought she was the best teacher.

But Hiratsuka Shizuka never expected this.

Yoshiki actually repeated what he had jokingly said in private in front of so many people from Shuchiin and Soubu High School.

While Hiratsuka Shizuka was at a loss, she also felt a strange flutter in her heart.

Looking at Ye Xing standing beside her, completely unrestrained and arrogantly defiant towards all the teachers and students of Xiuzhiyuan Academy, she realized for the first time...

This kid is actually kind of handsome.

"Hmph, pointless verbal sparring."

Hearing the middle-aged woman's words, Ye Xing smiled and replied.

"Yes, you know yourself that Shuchiin University can hardly be considered the best university now, otherwise, why would you emphasize it in particular?"

"Older sister, you seem a little uneasy."

The middle-aged woman's face twitched twice, and she clenched her teeth, feeling her blood pressure rise.

"In short, the rules for this exam are very simple."

The middle-aged woman pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses, a hint of smugness in her eyes, and slowly spoke, reciting a set of astonishing rules that made Hiratsuka Shizuka's expression change drastically.

"Arts, Science, and English are all on one exam paper, with the order of the questions completely shuffled."

"The exam lasts a total of three hours, with no breaks in between."

"The examination rooms are divided into individual rooms, and all candidates answer the questions individually. The cameras monitor the entire process without any blind spots."

"Do you have any other questions?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka and Kirisu Mafuyu exchanged a glance, both with somber expressions.

What kind of exam is this?

Not only were all three subjects on one exam paper, but the order of the questions was also scrambled.

That is to say.

The answer you're giving right now might still be a multiple-choice question from the humanities.

The next question turned into a science problem.

Even if you look at the location of the corresponding questions for the three subjects before answering, it is still difficult to achieve the same smooth answering state as in a normal exam.

not to mention...

Three hours?

On average, that means you have to finish answering all the questions for one subject within an hour.

Hiratsuka Shizuka and Kirisu Mafuyu didn't know the difficulty of the exam papers set by Shuchiin this time, but it was foreseeable that they would definitely not be easier than the exam papers set by Soubu High School, and might even be much more difficult.

For the average student, completing the answers within an hour is already a difficult task, let alone checking them a second time.

不 ...

Maintaining full concentration for three hours is already an extremely severe test.

Hiratsuka Shizuka and Kirisu Mafuyu couldn't believe that the regular exams at the private Shuchiin Academy were governed by such torturous rules.

This was clearly prepared specifically for this joint examination.

"That's absolutely not..."

Just as Hiratsuka Shizuka was halfway through her sentence, Yohoshi disagreed.

"Then let's get started as soon as possible."

Seeing that Yoru had agreed, Hiratsuka Shizuka couldn't say anything more and could only nod helplessly.

"Ok."

.......

Before entering the examination room, Kaguya Shinomiya deliberately walked up to Yosei and spoke softly.

"I know that the exam rules this time are more favorable to me because I'm playing on home turf, so..."

"It does not matter."

Just as Kaguya Shinomiya was somewhat surprised, thinking that Yosei was being magnanimous, she heard the other party add a sentence with a smile, which reignited her competitive spirit.

"On the contrary, I hope that there are as many conditions as possible that are unfavorable to me but favorable to you."

"Otherwise, how can Shuchiin clearly see the difference between you and me?"

Kaguya Shinomiya's eyes flickered as she spoke softly.

"I only hope that your abilities match your words."

After saying that, she entered the examination room.

Although Hiratsuka Shizuka didn't have to take the exam, she was extremely nervous at the moment.

She walked over to Ye Xing's side, her face full of worry.
