In fact, I can add unlimited points

“I heard from Kiriyama that since the second year when he was integrated, Nagumo-senpai has accumulated at least fifty million personal points.”

"But last month you helped Long Yuanxiang pay 5 million in compensation, and you also sent 10 million to the first-year B class in a transaction. In addition, there's the 15 million you lost to me. After deducting some miscellaneous expenses, you should still have 20 million personal points left, right?"

Incidentally, Nangumo probably made quite a few promises to win over Class B and Class C of the third grade.

However, under pressure from Aragaki Shun, the two classes were forced to stand each other up, thus the deal naturally fell through.

However, even if Nagumo's own savings are less than 20 million, it doesn't matter. The other students in Class 2A must also have a lot of savings, and if they pool their money together, they can definitely make up for the shortfall.

"Based on this calculation, even now, the senior still has the ability to help a student from a lower-ranked class transfer to Class A. If the transfer voucher is used for installment payments, doubling the number is barely feasible."

"Then why don't you just take action and invite one person from each of the second-year C and D classes to join Class A?"

"I believe this is something that everyone in the second year would like to see. Please give it a good consideration, Senior Nagumo."

Class A was able to increase its combat strength, and there were people in Class C and Class D who were promoted. Nan Yunya also proved her sincerity and rebuilt her credibility.

This proposal cannot be described as a win-win situation; it is clearly a win-win-win, a quadruple win, or even a quintuple win!

That's right, Class B in the second year can also be a winner. As long as Nagumo invests his personal points into transferring classes, once the zero-point strategy is fully unleashed, it will definitely give him a big surprise!

Of course, having once suppressed the entire grade and become the vice president of the student council, the blond-haired senior wasn't a complete fool, and naturally wouldn't listen to the enemy's advice.

Although he couldn't figure out what trap Aragaki Shun had set for him, that didn't stop Nagumo Masa from decisively refusing.

"Aragaki, stop trying to mislead us. We second-year students have our own plans, and we don't need your opinions, you first-year junior!"

After glancing briefly at Class C and Class D, Nan Yun knew that these people probably really hoped that he would follow Aragaki Shun's advice.

If they go along with their wishes, the two classes that have only just begun to have second thoughts might be able to continue to be led by him and controlled by him in the open.

However, if they choose to refuse, the disunity and discord among the lower-level classes will likely worsen further.

But no matter what, advancing in the direction indicated by the enemy is absolutely the stupidest choice.

Whether from a rational or emotional perspective, given his pride, it was simply impossible for him to accept this!

"I promised that as long as you follow my orders, I will reform the school's rules and regulations after I take office as student council president, so as to achieve true meritocracy."

"My promise remains unchanged. Those who follow me will naturally reap the rewards before graduation. The student council election is coming soon. If you think that a sports festival can defeat me, then go ahead and try, but you will have to bear the consequences."

Naturally, Nan Yunya didn't take the second-year C and D classes seriously at all. At least the second-year B class had Kiryuin Fuuka and Kiriyama Ikuhachi. What could those two useless classes, whose bones had already been broken, possibly have left?

Therefore, he had no intention of spending his remaining savings to appease them.

This was not only because he didn't want to comply with his competitors' wishes, but more importantly, he had to keep at least 20 million personal points as a safety net in case of a dropout crisis.

Now that he is being suppressed by both first-year student Shun Aragaki and third-year student Manabu Horikita, even someone as proud as him cannot be sure that he will never make a careless mistake.

If, like this sports festival, he is targeted by the two of them again in the next special exam, then the remaining 20 million will be his ultimate trump card to ensure that he is not killed in one blow.

On the other hand, if he discovers a golden opportunity to defeat Horikita Manabu or Aragaki Shun, then these accumulated personal points will become an important bargaining chip in his plans.

No matter how you look at it, the remaining 20 million must be kept and not invested in the meaningless C and D classes.

As for how those two classes feel... who cares about these good-for-nothings!

As long as Class B is suppressed again, these opportunists who bully the weak and fear the strong will naturally return to their rightful places.

"Aragaki, have you seen the show yet? Here's 1500 million yen, you can keep it for now. One day, I'll get it back from you with interest!"

Because of the defeat at the sports festival, Nagumo Masako knew that she had lost a lot of prestige. If she continued to confront this group of people in public, she would only have her already dwindling face trampled on again and again.

To avoid letting his anger cloud his judgment and lead him astray, the blond-haired senior quickly completed the transfer on his phone and turned to leave the embarrassing arena with Class 2A.

Shun Aragaki was somewhat disappointed, but not by much, as he had expected it.

If he could take advantage of the situation to persuade Nan Yunya to spend the remaining 20 million, that would be ideal. After losing this get-out-of-jail-free card, someone would be on the countdown to dropping out of school.

But it doesn't matter if it doesn't succeed. Just take this opportunity to sow discord between him and the three lower-ranked classes, further dividing and disintegrating the already divided second grade.

Compared to the grade representative who unifies the second year, the leader of a mere second-year Class A is much easier to deal with.

However, it's better to kick someone when they're down than to press your advantage after a victory. Seeing that Nanono Masako was about to flee, Aragaki Shun decided that he had to take this opportunity to add fuel to the fire of the second-year students' struggle.

So he took out his phone and showed the email containing the transfer of 15 million personal points, praising Class 2B without reservation:

"You did a great job, completing the task I assigned efficiently. I must reward you properly!"

265. You do the first day of the month, I'll do the fifteenth; the senior from the Ghost Dragon Academy wants to repeat a year.

"You did a great job, completing the task I assigned efficiently. I must reward you properly!"

"Class B of the second year will compete with Class A of the second year next, but they are at an overwhelming disadvantage in terms of individual points, and the threat of expulsion from Vice President Nagumo is also something that cannot be ignored."

"Therefore, I have decided to invest the 15 million yen I received from Senior Nagumo into Class 2-B. You can use it to exempt students from expulsion or to recruit talent from other classes."

Compared to Class A of Grade 2, Class B of Grade 2, which has already fallen once, is at a disadvantage in terms of morale, finances, and overall strength.

Even after the zero-point tactic is banned, the two classes will still have to have a real battle.

In order to prevent Kiriyama Ikuha and the others from collapsing at the first touch with Nagumo Masatoshi, Aragaki Shun didn't mind adding some chips to Class 2-B in a fair and square manner, since these personal points were originally obtained by Nagumo from all the second-year students.

But while Aragaki Shun spoke lightly, the others present felt as if they had been struck by a thunderbolt.

That's 1500 million—a full 1500 million personal points!

Aside from Horikita Manabu, perhaps only the leaders of Class 3-B could gather enough members to form a cohesive unit.

The funds for the second year were all concentrated on Nagumo Masaru, while the first year was led by Aragaki Shun, with Kanzaki Ryuji managing the class funds for Class A... Apart from these five, no other student in the entire Advanced Education program could easily come up with such a large amount of personal points.

After all, not to mention that the channel of trading personal points with cash has been banned, even if it hadn't been banned, after Sakayanagi Arisu's class transfer, the upperclassmen no longer had any extra points to trade.

The moment that number exploded in the air, the entire playground seemed to be vacuumed. Not only the students in Class B of Grade 2, but also those in Classes C and D were extremely excited, their heartbeats rising and falling uncontrollably.

"Aragaki Gakuen... no! President Aragaki, are you serious? You really going to give this 1500 million yen to our class?"

Kiriyama Ikuba was the first to react. This representative of Class 2-B subconsciously picked at his ear, and after confirming that he hadn't misheard, his attitude immediately became respectful, his gaze burning like a husky seeing a bone.

“My reputation is far more important than a mere 1500 million personal points. Do you really think I would deceive you in front of everyone?”

With a smirk, Aragaki Shun said with feigned arrogance, "I have always been fair in my rewards and punishments. Since you are working for me, there is no reason for you to take advantage of me for nothing."

"Later, we can sign a contract under the notarization of the school. Whenever you are competing in your classes, you can come to me and take away this 1500 million yuan as long as you have a suitable reason."

After a brief pause, perhaps feeling the atmosphere still wasn't heated enough, the boy continued with a declaration that added fuel to the fire:

"Of course, I also know that the financial situation of Class 2B is not good, and you may find it difficult to make the most of this 15 million."

"So if needed, I can also open up loan channels to you and help you make up the funds to 20 million when necessary."

Why 20 million?

This amount is required to cancel expulsion penalties and to help someone permanently transfer to another class.

Aragaki Shun's meaning was clear: he wanted everyone in Class 2-B to abandon all restraints and go all out to tear apart Nanono Aya.

With a guaranteed minimum of 20 million, they don't need to worry about the other party's threat of dropping out. They can vent their grievances and seek revenge. In the competition within the class, it's okay if they go a little crazy.

Thinking of this, Kiriyama Ikuyo's breathing became increasingly rapid.

Their class has decided to implement a zero-score strategy, at which time the evaluation scores of both Class A and Class B in the second grade will be reset, and everyone will start over.

Now, with the support of Shun Aragaki's 20 million, Class B will be on the same starting line as Masashi Nagumo in terms of individual points.

Hope! Boundless hope!

At that moment, he truly saw the hope of leading his class to regain its A-class status!

"Without further ado, from today onwards, Class 2-B will obey President Aragaki's orders without question."

Kiriyama Ikuha looked serious, exchanged a glance with the others in the class, and stepped forward to make a declaration of "loyalty".

We absolutely have to hold onto this strong leg!

Since there's no conflict of interest between different grades, as long as we can reclaim our spot in Class A, what's wrong with pledging allegiance to the younger students?

Classes like Class C and Class D in the second year want to curry favor with President Aragaki, but they haven't had the chance yet!

Can't you see the look of envy and jealousy on their faces?

Right in the eye of the storm, Nan Yunya, who had been about to leave, paused, a smile playing on her lips that was hard to decipher.

"Oh?"

He uttered a single syllable lightly, but his narrow eyes were as cold as ice, his gaze sweeping over the crowd and precisely locking onto Aragaki Shun's face.

"Taking my money to support my rivals?"

"Aragaki, have you made up your mind to get deeply involved in the competition among the second-year students?"

The sound wasn't loud, but it silenced everyone instantly.

The students in all four second-grade classes shrank back. Those familiar with Nan Yun could sense the barely suppressed emotions beneath his calm exterior.

In the past, whenever this happened, someone would inevitably pay the price of dropping out of school.

But Shun Aragaki simply smiled and replied dismissively:

"Wasn't this war started by Senior Nagumo himself? I just made it burn a little brighter."

"Since the senior has already reached out to the first grade, if I don't return the favor, wouldn't I become a laughing stock in front of outsiders?"

This refers to Class B of Grade 1 and Long Yuanxiang.

If you do the first thing, don't blame me for doing the fifteenth.

"Good! Excellent!" Nami clapped her hands twice, laughing instead of getting angry, and accepted Aragaki Shun's statement as a matter of course. "That's how it should be! It should have been like this a long time ago!"

In the past, he used to manipulate the second and third year students by smashing their personal points, but he never expected that today the boomerang would be shot back at him.

What's even more frustrating is that after all the ups and downs, he only has 20 million left in his hands. If it really comes down to a point reserve, he really can't compete with his junior, Shun Aragaki.

This indescribable sense of frustration was truly a first for him.

It feels quite strange.

"Since it is a school that claims to be based on merit, there can only be one person who can truly stand at the pinnacle of advanced training."

"The other classes in the second year are all too useless, and Horikita-senpai has always been unwilling to accept my challenge. I never expected that a junior like you, Aragaki, would appear in the first year. I am really happy."

After speaking, Nan Yunya glanced at the many students in Class B of the second year and couldn't help but let out a cold snort.

"Hmph! Let me see just how many surprises these good-for-nothings can bring me with your help!"

After uttering such harsh words, the blond-haired senior turned and left, never stopping for any other commotion.

After his figure disappeared, Shun Aragaki stretched, and seeing the expectant look on Ikuha Kiriyama's face, he casually gave a command:

"Next year, Class A, Class C, and Class D will be having a celebration together. You can also bring your seniors from Class B to attend. We can then discuss in detail the in-depth cooperation between the classes."

“I understand,” Kiriyama nodded seriously. “We’ll head over there as soon as everyone has finished cleaning up the things on the playground.”

The other students in Class 2-B naturally had no objections, except for Kiryuin Kaede, who had been watching the commotion from the sidelines— Suddenly, she spoke up.

"I didn't expect that you, junior, would actually enjoy participating in this kind of game, and that you've been playing it with such relish."

Aragaki Shun raised an eyebrow and immediately understood what the senior wearing the headband meant.

Generally speaking, for these privileged or wealthy scions, advanced education, no matter how interesting, is just a rather special playground.

Ultimately, they don't need the employment and further education benefits promised by the school. They just need to ensure they are not expelled, raise the funds to transfer to Class A before graduation, and not embarrass their family and friends.

Therefore, people like Koenji, Kiryuin, and Sakayanagi Arisu don't care which class they are assigned to, and they don't care much about the so-called class competition.

In this way, it is actually the leaders like Shun Aragaki, who are dedicated and willing to take on the expectations of their classmates and lead them into the future, who seem to be the odd ones out among them.

Faced with his senior's curious gaze, the boy, being a cheater, naturally wouldn't say anything about it being for the sake of source power. He simply shrugged indifferently and gestured to Ryuji Kanzaki beside him.

"Not everyone is as self-centered as you and Koenji. I get along very well with my classmates. Look at Kanzaki, he's also fully committed to class activities, isn't he?"

“That’s right!” The salaryman in Class A who handles most of the miscellaneous tasks, and also the young master of Kanzaki Heavy Industries, truly agreed with Aragaki Shun’s statement.

"I am very happy to have spent these three years with everyone in the class. Youth is short, and since we have met such precious companions, we should not leave any regrets for the beautiful memories to come."

Seeing this, Kiryuin Fuka poked her chin with her index finger and nodded in surprise.

"I see. So you've all found the fun you were looking for at this school?"

“You should ask Koenji Rokusuke or Sakayanagi Arisu about that,” Aragaki Shun replied calmly. “Compared to Kanzaki and me, their initial style of doing things was probably more like yours.”

As for now, Sakayanagi Arisu seems to be developing a romantic mindset and is no longer paying much attention to class competition.

Koenji Rokusuke, on the other hand, went from being alone to becoming the leader of Class 1-B, and began to single-mindedly prepare to challenge Aragaki Shun.

"That's a real shame. I wish I could have entered the school a year later and joined you all. I feel that the competition among you first-year students is much more interesting than that among the second and third-year students."
