In fact, I can add unlimited points

In this way, he controlled both Kiriyama Class and Asahina Class in his second year. The combined strength of these two superior classes far surpassed that of the original Class C and Class D in the second year.

After the results of the mixed-gender dormitory exam are released, and one student from each of the boys' and girls' dormitories is chosen as a scapegoat, the two previously inferior classes should now know their true capabilities.

"Hehe~ That's great, let's all look forward to the final exam tomorrow!"

After patting Asahina Nagisa on the shoulder, Aragaki Shun noticed that it was getting late and that his senior didn't seem to have anything else to say, so he decided to leave and return to his dormitory.

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to pull his right hand back, the girl wearing a sunflower hair clip grabbed it.

With a hint of confusion, Shun looked down and met Asahina Nagisa's gaze. He inexplicably saw a stubbornness in her star-studded purple eyes, as if she had made up her mind about something.

What's going on here?

“You wicked junior,” the senior who tripped on the spot took a deep breath, smiled and gestured to the amulet in her hand, “Do you believe in fate? Do you believe that people are attracted to each other?”

"..."

Upon hearing this somewhat perplexing question, Shun Aragaki paused for a moment, actually putting his mind to work for a few seconds.

But feeling the softness of the girl's small hands, and gazing at the delicate face under the expectant gaze of his senior, the man's thoughts suddenly drifted off to who-knows-where—

What fate or attraction? Isn't it just a simple love of beauty, lust at first sight, or to put it more nicely, love at first sight and being unable to forget it?

Shun Aragaki is quite confident in his looks and charm.

If it were someone else, like Haruki Yamauchi or Kanji Ike, and those weirdos found Asahina Nazuna's amulet, he guarantees their first reaction wouldn't be to think about fate, but rather to simply deny that the amulet belonged to them.

In more serious cases, the girl may even develop psychological trauma as a result, and never dare to try similar games again.

But to say that there is no such thing as fate in the world... Shun Aragaki doesn't believe it either.

After all, the source power he possesses is, to some extent, the crystallization of luck and global attention.

So, after careful consideration, the boy's answer to the expectant girl was:

"Fate itself has countless possibilities, and destiny should be the moment when you are willing to accept it and your heart is moved by it."

If I like the development, then it's fate; if it's annoying, then it's nothing.

"I see... "

Whether satisfied or dissatisfied, Shun Aragaki only saw his senior in front of him first appear thoughtful, then suddenly break into a radiant smile.

"It seems I have truly met my soulmate."

"You mischievous junior, I've given you the whole class now, so don't you dare scare me like that again."

318. The mixed-group training exam has ended; both groups failed.

On the last day of the mixed-gender training camp, a total of 36 groups, including both boys and girls, will face their final assessment.

After breakfast, under the arrangement of the faculty and staff, Shun Aragaki led his group members to the designated classroom.

At this moment, the senior students in the same group had already arrived. The leader of Class A glanced calmly at the second-year students who were in an excited state, seemingly fantasizing about their wonderful future.

Perhaps in their eyes, being able to form a large group with Class 1A and Class 3A means they have a sure win in this special exam; they can't possibly lose if they're on the receiving end of a fierce attack.

And that is indeed the case!

The large group that Shun Aragaki and Manabu Horikita belong to is bound to be the top team in the mixed training camp. As a supporting member, the original Class C of the second year can also take advantage of this to gain a lot of class evaluation points and personal points.

So, what will be the price to pay for gaining so many benefits for no reason?

I was secretly looking forward to seeing how these second-year delinquents would react after the exam results came out.

Shun Aragaki smiled and calmly led the first-year students to find their places in the classroom.

After that, accompanied by the ringing of the bell, the teacher in charge of this group's assessment entered the classroom and began explaining the exam content—

Although the group exams are a mix of students from the entire academic year, they are still conducted according to the academic year. The group exams only affect the overall ranking.

As expected, the exam consisted of four parts: Zen, speech, relay, and written test. There were no other unexpected requirements.

Because there are more than 400 highly trained students, if everyone takes the same assessment, the entire forest school will become extremely crowded. Therefore, the school decided to have each grade take turns using different examination venues, thus separating the four parts.

For example, the assessment for first graders starts with meditation, followed by a written test in the next classroom, then a relay race, and finally a speech.

On the other hand, the second-year students' first event was a relay race, which was very difficult right from the start, while the third-year students seemed to start with speeches.

After explaining these basic rules, the teachers began to lead each grade to different exam locations. For example, all the first-grade boys gathered in the meditation area.

"Now, the meditation exam will begin. The scoring criteria have two parts: the manners and movements when entering the temple and whether there are any disorderly moments during meditation. After the meditation, everyone should wait in the classroom for instructions on the next exam."

"Next, students whose names are called, please line up in order to take the exam. Let's begin: Class A, Ryuji Kanzaki; Class B, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji..."

As the words fell, the proctor began calling out everyone's names, but the order in which they were called seemed rather strange, making it impossible to discern any pattern.

"Unlike regular group sessions, will attendance be randomly called during the exam?"

Among the crowd waiting for the exam, some students with average mental fortitude instinctively held their breath.

Over the past week, although everyone has repeatedly reinforced their meditation practice, it has all been done in small groups, and they have been sitting with people they know well while meditating.

However, this time the school deliberately shuffled the order and forcibly assigned a group of unfamiliar students together, which to some extent could be considered as putting psychological pressure on the candidates in order to increase the difficulty of the exam.

This small detail shows how seriously the school took the exam.

However, the leader of Class A was not worried about his group's performance. After all, the people in his group were either elites from Class A or core members of the top-ranked teams from the other three classes, so they would not be affected by such petty tricks.

Soon, Aragaki Shun was also called into the meditation room by the teacher, where he completed his assessment task with a standard posture.

After some time, the meditation session for all the first-grade students was successfully completed.

Everyone left the examination room in an orderly manner. During this time, there would be a period of rest for everyone. Those who were strict with themselves could also prepare for the next written exam.

With only 10 minutes of free time, last-minute cramming is unlikely to be very effective.

Fortunately, the written test questions were basically based on what we had learned during this mixed training camp. As long as we were diligent and grasped the key points, it would be easy to get at least 90 points, if not a perfect score.

Unless you're the kind of mediocre person who's particularly bad at thinking and doesn't pay any attention in class, it's quite difficult to get a low score on a test of average difficulty.

In Aragaki Shun's group, there was naturally no such fool. The only variable was Koenji Rokusuke. Even if he was willing to abandon his unique aesthetics and deliberately hand in a blank paper and get a zero, his score alone could not possibly drag down the average score of the entire group of more than forty people.

Therefore, the second part of the exam was also completed smoothly.

After leaving the examination room, the group members gathered together for a brief score estimation.

Although estimating the score wouldn't change the outcome, and might only change the mood, everyone present concluded that the written exam was relatively easy overall.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the members of Shun Aragaki's group in the first group should all achieve near-perfect scores, and the scores of the other groups should not be too bad either.

Moreover, judging from the appearance of the other students in the meditation room, just like in a written exam, the scores among the students in meditation are probably not significantly different.

In this way, as long as you can make full use of the knowledge you have learned this week, you can get high scores in the three subjects of meditation, written test and speech by grasping the key points.

Therefore, the most crucial factor affecting exam results is the relay race that follows.

In this kind of competition that is mainly based on physical fitness, you either succeed or you fail, and there won't be any dramatic changes just because of a few days of training.

.........

After the break, everyone followed the teacher to the next examination room.

Upon exiting, I saw several large vans parked outside, apparently intended to transport each student to their designated baton-receiving position.

After everyone was on the truck, the faculty member in the passenger seat began explaining the rules of the relay race:

—The total distance of the relay race is 18 kilometers.

— Each student must run at least 1.2 kilometers.

—The interval between baton relay positions must be a multiple of 1.2 kilometers;

—[If an unforeseen accident prevents the completion of the entire course or the achievement of the shortest distance, the participant will be disqualified.]

The distance of the relay race is 18 kilometers. Because the rules require each person to run at least 1.2 kilometers, in a group of 15 people, everyone is required to run 1.2 kilometers.

In reality, apart from the first-year girls' group, none of the other groups could reach the full capacity of 15 people.

After all, a large number of students dropped out in the second and third years, and four boys in the first year were also expelled for taking photos without permission.

Therefore, in these groups, there will be situations where there are not enough people, and some students need to run two or even more people's portions.

However, this might not be bad news. If the vacated spots are allocated to physically fit students, allowing them to run longer distances, their final results might be significantly higher than if everyone ran a fixed 1.2 kilometers when the venue was full.

For example, if the overpowered leader of Class A is in a 9-person group, then even if the other 8 people only run the basic section, Aragaki Shun can still take on the remaining 7 people's share and still win the relay race. It would be even easier than if 15 people ran together.

“There are 14 people in our group, so I will run the last leg and cover the 2.4-kilometer distance for two people.”

Instead of discussing it, he gave instructions directly. After seeing that no one else had any objections, Aragaki Shun turned his gaze to Koenji Rokusuke.

"Also, you'll be the first runner, Koenji. Don't deliberately slack off or fall too far behind."

Faced with the ambiguous hint from the leader of Class A, Meili blew on her blonde hair and casually made an OK sign.

He certainly understood the profound thoughts behind Aragaki Shun's meaningful arrangement.

Ultimately, in relay races, even with the best efforts of all teammates, victory is not guaranteed. Conversely, if any participant decides to cause trouble, the entire team is doomed to lose.

In this way, it would be exceptionally easy for Rokusuke Koenji to disrupt Shun Aragaki's plan—he only needed to take a leisurely stroll after receiving the baton or simply stop and spin around in place, and no matter how hard the rest of the group tried, they would not be able to win first place.

That's why Shun Aragaki wanted to be the last runner in order to secure a good result in the group stage of the relay race.

If the leader of Class A discovers that someone ahead of him is deliberately dragging things out, making it impossible for him to win when he takes over, then he will keep dragging it out, bringing the entire group to last place.

When the time comes, as the group leader, he will definitely designate Koenji Rokusuke as someone to be buried alive with.

Meili was fully aware of this threat, so when the relay race officially started, as the first runner, he still tried to run at a suitable speed.

With the help of the rest of the group, Shun Aragaki easily and quickly reached the finish line in first place.

At this stage of the exam, only the content related to "speech" remains.

For most first-graders, nothing is worse than having to give a speech after a strenuous run.

I wonder if the school's arrangement was influenced by a twisted sense of humor.

But in any case, once this final part is completed, this week-long mixed-gender dormitory exam will truly come to an end.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

.........

At 5 p.m., the special exam came to an end.

Just like on the first day, all the boys were asked by the teachers to gather in the gymnasium.

Before long, the girls from the neighboring school building also began to appear here.

Shun Aragaki spotted Honami Ichinose, Hiyori Shiina, and Miki Yamamura in the crowd, noticing the weariness on the girls' faces.

Fortunately, everyone took good care of themselves, and no one was injured while running on the mountain track during the exam.

After all the students in the school had gathered, several groups who felt they hadn't performed well began to hold their breath—

Next, they should be announcing the results of the special exams for boys and girls, right?

"Thank you for your hard work during these eight days at the forest school. Overall, this year's results are better than last year, and I believe that everyone's teamwork is one of the important reasons for this."

Under the watchful eyes of more than 400 students, a stranger who looked to be in his fifties walked onto the podium and gave a report to everyone while maintaining a smile.

It seems he is the one who specifically runs this forest school; at least Shun Aragaki has never seen such a staff member at Advanced Nurturing School.

"Hehe~ I won't waste any more words. Next, I will announce the top scorer in the boys' dormitory area. I will only mention the name of the third-year student leader in this group. All students in this group will receive reward points in the future."

After this explanation, the faculty member slowly read out the names:

"The group led by Horikita Manabu from Class 3-A came in first place."

As expected, with Shun Aragaki specifically managing the scores of all six groups in the first grade, and with the cooperation of Manabu Horikita in the third grade A class, their group ultimately became the undisputed number one.

Instantly, a considerable number of students from all three grades erupted in cheers, with Class 3A of the third grade being the most excited.

"Great, Horikita, now we've pulled ahead of Class B in no time, and we don't have to worry about being overtaken in the last semester anymore."

After that, the group rankings from second to last were also announced, which was consistent with Shun Aragaki's initial plan. As the saying goes, the outcome was decided before the competition even started.

"Is this the strength of Class A?" Yukimura Teruhiko couldn't help but exclaim. "They won so easily, there was no suspense at all."

"Yes, even though the first academic year isn't over yet, it feels like the landscape for the next two years or so will be hard to change."

Kaneda Satoru pushed up his glasses and made up his mind to cling tightly to Aragaki Shun's coattails from that moment on.

Class A has the largest number of students and the highest quality. Its leader is the student council president, the strongest person in the whole school. He really can't see any hope of other classes making a comeback.
