In fact, I can add unlimited points

They not only have to ensure the favored individuals are correct, but they also have to investigate faster than others so that they can monopolize 50 personal points and incidentally help the class plunder 50 evaluation points.

The exam lasted for three days, which was enough time for most groups to have participants, potentially shifting the outcome towards the latter two groups.

“Besides, Aragaki, your goal isn’t to kindly ensure that everyone in the grade benefits equally, is it?” Kanzaki, who had been assisting the leader of Class A for a semester, quickly concluded, “So after completing Result One, you’ll still have to get the others to hand over most of their personal points.”

“Then we have no choice but to sign contracts with everyone in the entire grade before the first preferential treatment recipient is identified,” Shiina Hiyori thought along with, the girl’s delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly.

"Class A, C, and D should be fine, but it's a bit hard to say about Koenji from Class B. He doesn't seem to care much about the class evaluation scores."

“It’s okay, he doesn’t care, but the others in Class B will,” Aragaki Shun said nonchalantly. “If they can’t achieve result one, I’ll have Class B deduct 600 points and cripple them.”

"Anyway, we are definitely the winners, it's just a matter of how much we win."

Needless to say, since Koenji was in Class D before, he could indeed disregard his class evaluation score.

But now that he's transferred to Class B, he may not be able to maintain his former detachment.

"We can leave Class B until last; let's deal with the issues of Class C and Class D first."

Shun Aragaki looked at Mio Ibuki and Megumi Karuizawa and said, “Tell your classmates that I will make all the group exams lead to result 1. As long as they are willing to cooperate with me, after the exams are over, Class A will give each of them 50,000 personal points and each privileged student 1 million points.”

"In return, all the rewards issued in this preferential treatment exam will belong to Class A."

Without his level of influence, the biggest gain for the privileged in this test would be nothing more than 50 to hide their identities.

He is now willing to give the other party the entire 100 million from outcome one, which means that these people have made a profit no matter what.

Ordinary students don't need to do anything; they just need to post their answers within the specified time to get 5 personal points. How can you say they're stingy?

Surely they're not thinking of finding out their preferential treatment status on their own and pocketing the 50 yuan all to themselves?

"If anyone is dissatisfied, just tell them directly. If they are unwilling to cooperate, Class A doesn't mind taking the 600th class evaluation score directly."

Calmly observing Karuizawa and Ibuki, the leader of Class A spoke indifferently, "Don't tell me you can't even handle something this small."

If he's really that useless, then he'll have to be replaced.

201. I've been a member of Class A for a long time; I'm living in the sewers in place of Class D.

Without a doubt, Class C and Class D were easily dealt with.

Ibuki Mio and Karuizawa Megumi may not be very strong, but we should also look at who is standing behind them.

Needless to say, D class was fine, but Long Yuan from C class was still lying in a hospital bed, and the others who participated in the exam didn't have the courage to cause him any trouble.

More importantly, Shun Aragaki is genuinely willing to help them make money!

Regular students can earn 5 personal points simply by writing a name within the specified time.

If you are lucky enough to become a privileged student and then tell Class A your identity as soon as possible, you can immediately receive 100 million personal points after the exam.

They didn't need to think about anything; they could just lie down and be carried by the big shots. They were experiencing what the students in Class A had been feeling since entering the school.

So, quite easily, Ibuki Mio and Karuizawa Megumi both managed to persuade their classmates.

"If I could be selected as a privileged individual, that would be worth 100 million personal points."

In Class C, Shiho Manabe, with her short brown hair and brown eyes, makes a prayer gesture.

Not just her, but everyone in the conference room, including Ibuki Mio and Kaneda Satoru, thought the same way.

You can get 100 million personal points without doing anything. Even if you use that money to transfer classes, you'll have enough for one-twentieth of that amount.

There are nine semesters in three years of high school. If you can get 1 million points from special exams every semester, and save some money from living expenses and club rewards, you can accumulate 10 million personal points over three years.

According to the information from Shun Aragaki, having so many savings is enough to prove their strength. They can apply to Class A for investment and borrow money to make up for the transfer fees.

If you don't want to spend the money on changing classes, you can exchange the 1000 million yuan for cash after graduation and take it with you. That would be equivalent to three years' total income for an average wage earner.

In short, as long as you can get your hands on these 100 million personal points, you can reap huge benefits, whether you look at it in the long run or just consider campus life.

The only worrying thing is that it seems that only 3 people in each class can get this opportunity.

It's safe to say that it's time to test your luck.

"Ishizaki and Yamada," seeing the students' minds wandering, Ibuki Mio didn't disturb them. She turned her gaze to Ryuen Sho's two most loyal followers, "You two aren't planning on causing trouble, are you?"

Under the watchful eyes of the rest of Class C, Ishizaki Daichi felt a chill run down his spine, realizing that if he said anything about causing trouble, he would immediately be beaten up by this group.

Of course, he never intended to cause trouble.

"I've been a member of Class A for a long time! Loyalty!"

Sorry, boss of Longyuan.

It's not that I want to betray you, it's that you're completely useless!

Ishizaki Daichi silently complained to himself, but felt no guilt whatsoever.

Although these delinquent youths value loyalty, he had followed Longyuan for so long and gained nothing but a few beatings.

Under these circumstances, Ishizaki felt he had already done his former boss a great favor by being willing to help blockade Aragaki Shun on the deserted island.

In any case, since the eldest brother is incompetent, he shouldn't be blamed for having to fend for himself.

Based on similar considerations, although Albert Yamada was not as eager to get closer to Ibuki as Ishizaki, he calmly expressed his willingness to obey the will of the class as a whole.

From then on, Long Yuanxiang's last influence in Class C completely dissipated.

.........

"One million! One million! I must be chosen as the recipient of preferential treatment! I must be chosen!"

"Me, me, me—it should be me! As long as I get 100 million personal points, I'm sure I'll be able to get a girlfriend. Then, hehehehe..."

"Chi, stop dreaming. When it comes to luck, no one in Class D can compare to me."

"If I can get 100 million, I can live a carefree life for the next three years. I've had my eye on several sets of cosmetics for a long time, but I haven't had the chance to buy them yet..."

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka remained expressionless as he watched his classmates fantasize about the wonderful future they would have after being chosen as privileged individuals.

Clearly, this situation was beyond his control.

Even Horikita Suzune and Yukimura Teruhiko, who were initially most interested in advancing to Class A, have long since given up on class competition and are now focusing on raising 20 million yen to go solo.

With no one in the class willing to work hard, even if he, a marginalized individual who always hung out with the three idiots, was highly capable, he couldn't secretly guide the class's direction.

To consider Shun Aragaki as an opponent, the difference in their strength is simply too great.

Both special exams ended as soon as they started, leaving no chance for me to intervene.

Unfortunately, Chabashira Saeko wouldn't understand his predicament. This crazy homeroom teacher would only threaten him with expulsion and scold him for his incompetence.

Recalling the experience of being ridiculed and mocked again a few days ago because of the situation during the exam on the deserted island, Ayanokouji had a premonition that she would encounter something similar again in the future.

Of course, Chabashira Sae is not important; apart from hysteria and impotent rage, this old woman obsessed with the past can do nothing.

The key point is that being this powerless once or twice is a rather rare experience for the White House's greatest masterpiece.

It seems I need to leave Class D as soon as possible and choose a more suitable base.

Otherwise, with the entire classroom surrounded by the opponent's tools, he wouldn't be able to see where he could exert his strength.

However, ever since the last exam ended and Long Yuanxiang was sent to the infirmary, Class C has fallen into even more chaos than Class D.

As for Class A, they definitely can't go.

So, is Class B the only option left...?

.........

While everyone in the first grade was preoccupied with their own thoughts, time quickly passed to eight o'clock the next morning.

According to the school's examination rules, the school will send an email to all students at this time, informing them whether they have been selected as preferential students.

Shun Aragaki sent everyone in Class A back to their dormitories, but he himself gathered Ichinose, Kanzaki, and Shiina at a coffee shop.

Without saying a word, everyone's phones rang precisely at eight o'clock, without even a second's error.

Shun Aragaki immediately confirmed the email he received.

After careful consideration, you were not selected as a recipient of preferential treatment. Please act as a responsible member of the group and take on the challenge of the test.

The exam will begin at 1 PM today and will last for three days. Students in the Rabbit Group, please assemble in the Rabbit Room on the second floor.

“I’m not a privileged individual,” Shun Aragaki calmly asked, opening his phone directly. “What about you?”

Me too.

"No, not either."

"I was the luckiest; I was actually chosen."

Upon hearing this, Shun Aragaki, Ichinose, and Kanzaki all turned their attention to the literary girl.

The girl smiled faintly and showed everyone the screen of her phone.

The email messages above are largely the same, except that "not selected as a recipient" has been changed to "selected as a recipient".

"Congratulations, Hiyori."

Honami Ichinose clapped her hands, her face beaming with genuine joy. "Remember to invite everyone in the class to celebrate later!"

Hiyori Shiina was somewhat amused and exasperated. Weren't all the facilities on the cruise ship free? What kind of guest was this?

Of course, the literary girl also knew that Ichinose just wanted her to get closer to her classmates and had simply made up an excuse to go out, so she didn't refuse.

Less than two minutes later, Shun Aragaki received two more emails from his classmates, as well as three more emails from Class C and Class D.

In this way, a total of nine students from three classes were easily identified within two minutes of the school sending out the email.

Oh wait, it's actually 10 preferential treatment recipients. He didn't expect to receive an email from Class B.

The letter was written by Miki Yamamura, who was surprisingly chosen even though she was relatively unknown.

The ten names were told to everyone present, and they worked together to find the selection pattern of the preferential treatment recipients by comparing them with the lists of each group.

Then--

"Why is it the Japanese syllabary (hiragana and katakana)? Is the school being so lazy?"

Because it was so simple, after marking the 10 names in each group, the group quickly discovered the pattern and successfully deduced the privileged student in Class B.

Upon seeing the final answer, Ryuji Kanzaki couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.

He felt that the school administration had become incredibly lazy.

Before the pattern was discovered, who could have imagined that by arranging the names of the group members according to the Japanese syllabary and then finding the corresponding person based on the zodiac ranking, the preferential treatment recipient of that group could be determined?

For example, the Rabbit ranks fourth in the Chinese zodiac. The fourth name in the Rabbit group after arranging the fifty sounds is the one that is chosen for preferential treatment.

“Actually, it’s not that simple,” Aragaki Shun shook his head. “Normally, at least two classes would have to work together to get six names of the privileged students in order to figure out this pattern.”

“We found it easy because we got 10 names right from the start.”

There might be some uncertainty about deriving 6 from 6, but what difficulty is there in deriving 2 from 10?

Or to put it another way, Shun Aragaki's approach is from difficult to easy. He has already integrated more than three-quarters of the power of the first-year students, so wouldn't the ordinary exams be a piece of cake?

Shun clapped his hands and gestured for Ryuji Kanzaki to follow.

"Now that we know who the preferential treatment recipients are, let's go to Class B together, since they're the only ones who haven't signed the contract yet."

Perhaps it's a case of not giving up until you see the coffin; even though they knew there was no chance of winning, the group in Class B stubbornly refused to admit defeat last night.

After all, the candidates for preferential treatment haven't been announced yet, have they?

If the school makes a sudden blunder and actually gives most of the preferential treatment to them, then Class B might still have a chance to turn the tide.

No need for too many; just give them all seven preferential treatment recipients, and even if the remaining three classes unite, they won't be able to find a pattern...

Well, all I can say is that it's good to daydream sometimes. Even though it doesn't serve any other purpose, isn't it nice that such fantasies can make you feel happier?

.........

"Nakajima Riko and Fukuyama Shisho, there are three privileged individuals in Class B. One of them is one of my people, so the remaining two must be these two, right?"

After summoning everyone from Class B to the spacious conference room, Shun Aragaki looked at Kohei Katsuragi and Rokusuke Koenji with a half-smile.

"I've gathered all the privileged students from Class B. I wonder how your progress is going?"

Given Miki Yamamura's meager presence, if the girl were to hide herself, it would be questionable whether anyone would even remember her, let alone discover her status as a privileged individual.

Indeed, when they heard Aragaki Shun say his name, the two privileged students in Class B panicked for a moment and could only turn their gaze to Koenji.

Upon witnessing this scene, the rest of Class B naturally understood everything. Their wishful thinking, which had been building since yesterday, was completely shattered, and they could only helplessly accept the reality of another crushing defeat.
