In fact, I can add unlimited points

When you weigh these options, whether it's better to gamble on becoming a middle manager at a prestigious company in the future, or to take 20 million in cash now and go home to live a good life... depends on your personal choices.

But no matter what, as long as the money is in hand, they'll be willing to do anything, even if it's just to get what they want.

Having understood this, many in the Kiriyama class felt a sense of unease towards the situation.

Among this group, apart from Kiryuin Kaede, the rest of them came from ordinary families. Even the relatively wealthy ones couldn't easily ignore such a large sum of money.

It's worth noting that Katsuragi Kohei, who was also assigned to the original Class A from the beginning, was so poor that he lost both his parents and lived with his younger sister, relying on relatives for help to barely make ends meet.

As the school's undisputed archangel, the seemingly lovable Ichinose Honami once committed theft because her family couldn't afford a hair clip.

It can be said that many of the students, even leaders, who are highly educated upon entering university do not come from wealthy or privileged backgrounds. If possible, they would most likely be willing to voluntarily drop out of school in exchange for 20 million yuan in cash to improve their family's financial situation.

Even Kiriyama Ikuha hesitated for a moment, but his family was relatively wealthy and he had lived a carefree life since childhood, so in the end he chose the opportunity to graduate from Class A, which seemed to be more beneficial to his future.

"And if you, my friend, ever become a big shot after graduating from university, remember to give me a hand, you classmate who turned back halfway through."

The students in the Kiriyama class were initially puzzled, but quickly realized what they meant and said they would remember and stay in touch after graduation.

According to the rules of the mixed training camp, in this special exam, each student who drops out will only have 100 class evaluation points deducted, while canceling the dropout penalty requires sacrificing 400 class evaluation points and 20 million personal points.

More importantly, in this exam, although individual points and class evaluation scores will not fall below 0, the portion that is not deducted will still be retained in the form of accumulated deficit, which will be offset when rewards are obtained through future exams or other means.

In other words, even if their class evaluation score drops to 0, the portion that cannot be deducted will still accumulate, forming a negative score to some extent.

However, the loss of 300 class evaluation scores is a significant factor.

In this way, everyone left in the Kiriyama class who remained in the advanced training program did indeed owe her a favor.

While whether or not such a favor is acknowledged is entirely a matter of personal opinion, since the whole class owes it to each other and it involves the heir of the Aragaki family, it's not right to simply pretend that it doesn't exist.

Unless you cut off all contact with your classmates after graduating from high school, reputation and credibility are still quite important.

Thinking about this, some of the classmates who were on good terms with the girl couldn't help but twitch their lips slightly, feeling that their friend really hadn't suffered any loss at all.

Even Kiryuin Kaede subconsciously looked over, scrutinizing the other person from head to toe with great interest before leaving with her usual smile.

In any case, with 20 million in cash as a safety net, she's already made a profit by dropping out of school this time; it's just a matter of whether she wins a small, medium, or big win.

The rest is just a matter of shooting three times, whether there are any surprises or not, to see if any unexpected gains can be planned.

Success would be great, but failure wouldn't matter either; it's just a matter of wasting a few words.

.........

While Kiriyama's class was arguing with Kijima's, and the original D class was becoming increasingly chaotic due to students dropping out, the first-year students surrounding Aragaki Shun were in a state of jubilation.

Following this mixed-school exam, the evaluation scores for the four first-grade classes have changed considerably:

—【First, regarding the boys' school building, under the multiplication mechanism, the ordinary students in the first group can obtain 13 class evaluation points, while the person in charge of Class A will gain 26 points per person;

The regular students in the second group will all receive 4 class evaluation points, while each student in Class A, where the person in charge is located, will receive an additional 8 points.

—【Then, in the girls' school building, under the multiplication mechanism, the ordinary students in the first group can get 14 class evaluation points, while the person in charge of Class A will get 28 points per person;

The regular students in the second group will all receive 5 class evaluation points, while each student in Class A, where the person in charge is located, will receive an additional 10 points.

— [Regardless of gender, the scores of Groups 3 and 4 will not affect the class evaluation score.]

— [Regardless of gender, and without any doubling mechanism, each student in the fifth group will have 3 points deducted from their class evaluation score;]

Each student in Group 6 will have 5 points deducted from their class evaluation score.

The final tally shows the changes in evaluation scores for the four first-grade classes—

A班（新垣班）2822分→3418（11x26+6x8-3-5+12x14+11x10-3-5=596）

B班（葛城班）1708分→1646（13+4-6x3-6x5+14+5-5x3-7x5=-62）

C班（伊吹班）1340分→1368（13+4x4-3x3-5+14+2x5-2x3-5=28）

D班（轻井泽班）667分→692（13+3x4-3-5+14+5-2x3-5=25）

"This is incredible! In all my years working at Advanced Education, this is the first time I've ever seen a class achieve a score of over 3000 points!"

After announcing the results of this special exam, Hoshinomiya Chie couldn't help but exclaim:

"It should be said that since the establishment of the Advanced Training Center, no class has ever been able to reach this level. Without a doubt, we have all created an unprecedented miracle together!"

3418 PM?

Upon hearing this staggering number, time seemed to be paused.

Not only the students in Class A, but also the students from the other three classes who came over to watch couldn't help but swallow hard, their faces full of astonishment.

Soon, the students in Class A, who had come to their senses, erupted in chaos.

"That's fantastic! Doesn't that mean we'll be able to get over 34 personal points every month from now on?"

"Oh, my dad's monthly income doesn't even reach that level!"

"I can't spend it all! I simply can't spend it all! To get so much money at school feels like a dream!"

Led by Shibata Hayate, many boys couldn't help but jump up and cheer, while girls like Ichinose Honami and Kohashi Yume held hands and formed a circle, chattering about how to use so many personal points in the future.

Shun Aragaki crossed his arms and was very satisfied with the result of the exam; at least his simple life this week had not been in vain.

"After graduation, who knows, we might become witnesses to this legend."

In the area designated for Class C of Grade 1, Jin Tianwu couldn't help but sigh.

However, even though Class A ate meat, he still got a sip of soup—

Looking only at the class evaluation score, Class C only gained 28 points, but as a member of the first group, he also received a considerable amount of personal points, so overall the gains were not bad.

"34 personal points per person per month, the people in Class A are really lucky. Boss Aragaki is awesome!"

Ishizaki Daichi's fingers trembled, and the terminal almost fell to the ground. "Why wasn't I lucky enough to be assigned to the same class as Aragaki Boss in the first place?"

"It's alright, our class evaluation score didn't decrease, it's good that it can still increase!"

Manabe Shiho, standing next to him, had her eyes shining and her face full of pride. "Look at those unlucky guys in Class B. They still dare to go against Aragaki-kun. In a special exam or two, they might be overtaken by us."

Kaneda Satoru, Ishizaki Daichi, and the others were taken aback. Only after being reminded did they realize that the difference in evaluation scores between Class B and Class C had narrowed to within 300 points.

Could it be that after the next special exam, they will have a chance to advance further?

To trample the former Class A, which was once considered the strongest by the school... that would be so cool!

On the other hand, the atmosphere in Class D was similar to that in Class C. As a gathering place for flawed products, this group of people did not have high requirements—as long as the class evaluation score did not continue to drop, it would be considered a success.

With the 25 points of class evaluation score I gained, plus the 20,000 personal points that Aragaki Shun bestowed on each student when the mixed training camp was first started and the groups were divided... In short, long live President Aragaki!

However, people's joys and sorrows are hard to share. While the cheers of Class A rose and fell like waves of a tsunami, and Classes C and D were filled with pride and satisfaction, Class B in the corner remained completely silent.

Of the four first-grade classes, they were the only ones who failed in this special exam and had to bear all the losses.

"...Only 62 class evaluation points were lost, so it's not too bad."

Katsuragi Kohei sighed, forcing a somewhat bitter smile onto his face.

"But the difference in evaluation scores between us and Class A is already close to two thousand..."

A boy from Class B frowned, a deep gloom hidden in his eyes.

That's a precipitous gap of nearly two thousand. Even if Class A remains stagnant in all future special exams, it will still be just as unattainable.

Despair seeped into their collars like a snowstorm, chilling them to the bone.

Perhaps, they really didn't need to face an enemy they couldn't possibly defeat.

Rather than hoping for a chance to turn things around in the remaining two years, it seems more realistic to place our hopes on Koenji Rokusuke's promise.

Seeing his students' morale so low, Class B's homeroom teacher, Tomoya Mashima, opened his mouth to speak, but didn't know what to say.

In this situation, it seems pointless to say anything.

The reality is that Class B of Grade 1 has indeed been sliding into the abyss step by step under the suppression of the other three classes.

"How lucky you are, Star Palace."

Next to Majima Tomoya, Class C's homeroom teacher, Sakagami Kazuma, glanced at Hoshinomiya Chie in front of him, then looked at the expressionless Chabashira Sae on the other side, letting out a strange chuckle.

"Since the establishment of the Advanced Education School, there should be no teacher who has encountered such a luxurious Joker card as her, right?"

The fact that the class evaluation score exceeded 3000 was unprecedented and may never be repeated. Kazuma Sakagami could only attribute it to the unpredictable fate.

Otherwise, it would be quite absurd that Aragaki Shun wasn't originally in Class A... Although I always feel that if that freak had actually been in Class A from the beginning, his efficiency in integrating the first-year students might have been even slower than it is now.

Regardless of the hidden story, at the level of the homeroom teacher, Hoshinomiya Chie is undoubtedly the biggest beneficiary right now, while Majima Tomoya is undoubtedly the one who suffers the most.

"Perhaps it won't be long before our rankings are swapped."

With a sly smile on his face, Kazuma Sakagami nudged Tomoya Mashima on the shoulder, his smug grin making the latter cringe.

But one has to admit that this bastard's claim is actually very likely to become a reality.

If nothing unexpected happens, I, the former homeroom teacher of Class A, will soon be relegated to Class C along with my classmates.

It's important to know that a class advisor's salary, benefits, and power are completely tied to the ranking of the classes under their command. Since he fell to Class B, his treatment has been cut in half. If he continues to fall to Class C, then his experience and hard work over the past few years will be completely meaningless.

Of course, that's not the scariest part!

He's worried that his class will fall to the bottom under Aragaki Shun's targeting and eventually graduate from Class D... If that happens, putting aside his salary, the key issue is that if he wants to teach the next class, he'll have to replace Chabashira Sae as the homeroom teacher of Class D and climb the ranks.

I absolutely do not want those nightmares!!!

321. A restless Valentine's Day; Ichinose is staying tonight.

The mixed-study camp exam has successfully concluded.

The first-year students, who returned to the Advanced Education Center by bus, only rested for two days under the school's arrangement before quickly throwing themselves back into their peaceful study life.

After all, the primary responsibility of high school students is to study. Each special exam lasts from one or two days to seven or eight days, and is mainly a means to check the students' progress at a certain stage. It is a means, not an end, and we must not put the cart before the horse.

And so, a month passed in the blink of an eye, and the peaceful days were disrupted once again on February 14th—

As soon as he stepped off the elevator in the dormitory and into the spacious first floor, Aragaki Shun was overwhelmed by a group of girls showering him with chocolates.

Good morning, Aragaki-kun.

"Okay, good morning."

The leader of Class A responded somewhat helplessly to the greetings from first-year students and upperclasswomen.

Sometimes being too popular can be a source of distress.

"This is for you...a Valentine's Day present!"

After that, led by a senior student, seven or eight girls handed over various types of chocolates at the same time.

Aragaki Shun's lips twitched at the sight. Even with his good health, he didn't have to worry about getting sick from eating so many gifts. Receiving so many gifts from girls at once was still quite frustrating.

That's right, today is Valentine's Day, and boys and girls from all three grades are unusually restless during this time.

On his way to the classroom, Aragaki Shun was constantly approached by familiar girls from other classes, ordinary classmates with whom he had only a casual relationship, and even unfamiliar upperclassmen who came to give him gifts. He couldn't put them down all the way and had to make several trips back and forth to his dormitory.

Having finally arrived at the classroom of Class 1-A, the boy discovered that an unusual atmosphere permeated the room—

Many girls in the class gathered near his seat, watching their class monitor with sparkling eyes as he walked into the classroom.

Soon, when Aragaki Shun returned to his seat, the desk in front of him was piled high with Valentine's Day gifts, with various exquisite gift boxes stacked together like a small mountain.

"...This is a headache. If we keep piling them up, there won't be any room left."

Seeing that girls from other first-grade classes kept coming over to give him chocolates, Shun Aragaki finally couldn't hold back anymore.

He slapped his forehead with his right hand, his expression one of utter helplessness.

"It's just an ordinary holiday used by businesses for marketing, so why are so many people interested in this kind of gimmick?"

To be honest, the one-way gift-giving pattern from girls to boys on Valentine's Day, February 14th, is not a custom that existed from the beginning of this holiday.

Rather, it's a "localization" habit formed by Sakurajima businesses after decades of vigorous marketing efforts, with the sole purpose of stimulating chocolate sales.

To optimize marketing effectiveness, chocolates given by girls to boys are even specifically divided into "love chocolates" and "obligation chocolates".

As the name suggests, the former is used to give to someone you truly admire, and is mostly handmade or from high-priced brands; while the latter can be given to colleagues, superiors, and ordinary friends to express "gratitude and maintain relationships," and is mostly mass-produced goods.

However, under normal circumstances, unless a boyfriend and girlfriend have already established a relationship or are determined to confess their feelings on Valentine's Day, girls will disguise the gift as "obligation chocolate" even if it is given to someone they like.

In recent years, "friendship chocolates" have emerged as a gift that girls exchange with each other.

Even more outrageous is that, for lonely people who don't have a single friend, the merchants have thoughtfully launched a "Chocolate for Yourself" series, which can be bought to reward yourself... It can only be said that these people have really maxed out their marketing skills in order to make money.

"I think what you said makes people feel like they don't know how lucky they are."
