In fact, I can add unlimited points

This has nothing to do with a difference in ability; it's mainly a matter of stance between the class elders and the outsiders.

Koenji Rokusuke ultimately suppressed the objections and refused the deal, which certainly strengthened the binding force of the contract, but could not prevent the impact of Kanzaki's actions on the morale of Class B.

The impact is hard to predict, but I believe that if there are suitable opportunities to transfer classes in the future, there will be many more people like Ryoko Nishikawa and Asuka Shiraishi among them.

To put it bluntly, unlike Koenji Rokusuke, who is a future sugar daddy, Ryuen Sho and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka are just tools that Class B poached from lower-ranked classes to increase the class's competitiveness!

They saved every penny each month to buy transfer tickets, which allowed the two of them to stay in Class B without being sent back. But now the class is facing a dropout crisis, and they have to choose between the veteran members and the outsiders... Rationally, it is right to let Totsuka Yahiko be sacrificed, but most people are not rational enough in their daily lives.

All they do is complain about why Longyuan, an outsider who hasn't made any contributions, can't be used as a shield.

Without a doubt, among the remaining veteran members of Class B, there must be a large group of people with similar status and abilities to Totsuka, secretly whispering about this matter—they paid such a high price, only to end up buying two ancestors who need to be worshipped. Isn't this completely turning against the Heavenly Gang?

"What do you think, Katsuragi?"

Ignoring Ryuen Sho's unpleasant expression, Aragaki Shun turned his gaze more towards Katsuragi Kohei. "Totsuka is your best friend at this school, right? You could have saved him by sacrificing either Ryuen or Ayanokoji, but you just gave up like that?"

"Then there will inevitably be a series of special exams in the next two years. Will the members who drop out be selected from the veterans of Class B? Hehe~ If that's the case, I'm really looking forward to the day when Class B will only have Koenji, Ayanokouji and Ryuen left."

Upon hearing the scene described by the leader of Class A, Katsuragi and the B-class elders surrounding him couldn't hold back any longer—could this guy really be thinking of kicking out all the original members of Class B from Advanced Training?

"Aragaki, your provocation is way too obvious. Do you think we're all idiots?!"

The bald man frowned, his tone filled with dissatisfaction. "Yahiko's expulsion is something no one in the class wanted to happen. If we really have to find a culprit, it should be you, the mastermind behind it!"

“I don’t deny that,” the student council president said casually, “but Class A and Class B are enemies. Since you’re unwilling to surrender, you should have been prepared from the start. You know I would never hold back.”

"You've already lost three members in the class vote, and there's another special exam the day after tomorrow. How many more students in Class B can be sacrificed now?"

After saying this, Shun Aragaki stretched and, without waiting for any objections from the members of Class B, waved and left the bulletin board area. "Let's wait and see!"

Watching the figure disappear in silence, Katsuragi's lips trembled several times before he finally couldn't help but ask Ayanokouji Kiyotaka beside him:

"Aragaki is the student council president. Was what he just said simply to scare us, or did he already know the content of the next special exam? Could there be another expulsion penalty in the assessment the day after tomorrow?"

The White House, a masterpiece, adopts a thoughtful and contemplative posture, yet its heart is exceptionally clear—

If the special exam was handled by someone arranged by that man, then the strangest thing is that there is no option for expulsion in the exam's rewards and punishments.

As someone associated with the White Room, Tsukishiro Tsuneo is definitely not someone to be trifled with; the other party will surely tamper with the rules of the next special exam.

If Class B cannot win, it would be normal for more students to drop out.

"Don't worry, no matter what the special test is about, as long as we can win, that's all that matters."

Even if we can't win, we still have Masayoshi Hashimoto, right?

This guy, who was already destined for last place in the class vote, has luckily survived, so he can be put to good use in other exams.

.........

Four o'clock in the afternoon.

Organized by a group of girls including Honami Ichinose, Asako Amakura, and Yume Kohashi, Class A booked an entire floor of a famous restaurant. Everyone joyfully celebrated that not only did no one drop out of school during this special exam, but they also welcomed four new friends.

"Why is Ibuki-chan hiding in this corner all by herself? You're one of the main characters of this welcome party!"

Holding two cups of milk tea bought from the shopping street, Chihiro Shiraha handed one of them to Mio Ibuki and pretended to pull her toward the center of the stage.

"No! Ichinose and the others are too enthusiastic, I really can't get used to it."

The blue-clad girl's expression changed drastically, and she quickly broke free from Chihiro Shiraha's grasp.

To be honest, Ibuki didn't dislike the friendly atmosphere of Class A, but the girl was used to being alone. Surrounded by a dense crowd, it would be better to send her back to Class C and have a fight with those delinquent boys and girls.

"Just like Himeno and Horikita, if you have the chance, you can chat with them more. Maybe you can become good friends."

Seeing the two sisters who were competing in bed seemingly whispering to each other, Wang Meiyu came over with some desserts and offered a suggestion that sounded quite feasible.

"Himeno is alright, but are you sure that letting Ibuki and Horikita become friends won't lead to them actually fighting?"

Chihiro Shiraha sipped her milk tea, imagining what it would be like for two prickly girls to get together and have a conversation... It would definitely turn into a clash of titans, with them not liking each other at all!

"Isn't this good too?" Shiina Hiyori, who was also not used to overly noisy scenes, simply came here to seek peace and quiet. "There's a saying that you can't be friends without fighting. They are both strong-willed, so they do have the potential to become unconventional friends."

Ibuki Mio: "......"

Faced with the comments from several acquaintances, the blue-haired girl was truly speechless.

Although she prefers to act alone, she has been forced to be honest with many women because of a certain man, including the three seemingly gentle and quiet women in front of her who are actually quite obsessed with her.

Having had so many absurd experiences, does she really need to make friends?

It feels like even that scumbag's ever-growing number of lovers is becoming too many to recognize.

"Speaking of which, where is Aragaki? As the backbone of Class A, can he be absent from an occasion like this?"

"That's not how it is. When the class holds parties or games, it's usually Kofun who takes full charge. Aragaki-kun will at most say a few words at the beginning, and then everyone is free to do their own thing."

Chihiro Shiraha looked around and wasn't surprised to find no trace of the couple in the lobby. "Kansaki-san doesn't seem to be here either. They must have gone into the next private room to discuss serious matters."

"The main problem is that Aragaki-kun's presence is too strong. If he's around, most people in the class will be distracted."

Wang Meiyu added, "Nishikawa and Shiraishi are new to Class A, so they might be a little reserved. Aragaki probably didn't want them to be nervous, so he entrusted the entire welcome party to Ichinose."

As for why we don't mention Ibuki Mio and Karuizawa Megumi?

These two, as representatives of Class A who were supported by the lower-ranked classes, were actually quite familiar to most people in the class.

Therefore, the main goal of this welcome party was to let Ryoko Nishikawa and Asuka Shiraishi get to know each other in the class.

“I see,” Ibuki Mio nodded in understanding. “That guy is indeed quite eye-catching at this school.”

Or perhaps "attracting bees and butterflies" would be a more appropriate description?

Anyway, if that person stays in the hall, he will definitely steal the show and draw everyone's attention to himself.

Muttering a few complaints to herself, Ibuki Mio didn't bother to find out what the two Class A executives were discussing.

The girl knew she wasn't particularly clever, so all she needed to do was wait for Aragaki Shun's orders and follow them.

.........

Meanwhile, the student council president, who was the subject of much discussion among the girls, was in a private room processing student council documents while cursing a certain acting chairman.

"That guy Yuecheng has given me so much work right after taking office. He better pray I don't find an opportunity, or I'll definitely teach him a lesson!"

As the saying goes, "One word from above, and those below run themselves ragged."

On a whim, Yuecheng Changcheng added a class vote, and after everything was over, there was only a day and a half left before the next special exam.

The final work for today has just been completed when the new special examination rules for first graders were sent over. Students are required to finalize the relevant details by 9:00 AM tomorrow and then send them to the school for review. The rules will be officially announced the day after tomorrow.

"With such a tight schedule, has the acting chairman lost his mind?"

Kanzaki, who had been conscripted by Aragaki Shun, first made a couple of sarcastic remarks, then frowned as he looked at the rules for the upcoming special exam.

"Is the school going to reduce the class evaluation scores for first graders?"

"That's normal. The total scores of all four classes combined have already exceeded the limit."

341. Shifting costs, winner-takes-all; luck is also unbeatable.

"Is the school going to reduce the class evaluation scores for first graders?"

Kanzaki raised this question because the document clearly stated at the end that the next special exam would be a battle between two classes, with each class stealing the other's evaluation points, and the losing class would have 100 class evaluation points deducted.

Therefore, once the new special exam is completed, the school will not only no longer need to invest in class evaluation scores, but will also be able to directly recover 100 points from each of the two failed first-grade classes.

"That's normal. The total scores of all four classes combined have already exceeded the limit."

Since the end of the mixed training camp, Class A alone has achieved an evaluation score of 3418, while the next three classes scored 1646, 1368, and 692 respectively.

With only four classes, the total score for the first graders exceeded 7000.

The key point is that these class evaluation scores are equivalent to real money at the school. Every month, the school distributes individual points corresponding to the evaluation scores to students in each class at a ratio of 1:100.

Without a doubt, the total score for first graders is simply too high!

Since the uninhabited island exam, the school has consciously tried to reduce the score for these points, but for various reasons, they have not been able to do so completely.

Of course, it can't be said to be a complete failure or to have no effect at all—

The first grade wasn't affected, but the other two grades were cut several times.

Especially in the second grade, due to the zero-score strategy, for a period of time, the evaluation scores of all four classes were forced to drop below 100, which was practically like amputating from the eyebrows down.

On the other hand, about a quarter of the evaluation scores for first-year students are actually stolen from upperclassmen during the sports festival.

If we consider all three grades as a whole, the difference in the school's monthly expenditure compared to the past is not actually that significant.

The only problem is that nearly half of the personal points that should have been given to second and third graders were taken by first graders.

Therefore, the school decided to intervene and reduce the total score for the first year, and transfer those points back to the second year... Otherwise, with a total score of 7000 for the first year, the four classes in the second year would not even have 1500 points combined. If people knew this, they would think that the older students were raised by stepmothers.

"The school's considerations are perfectly reasonable, and they won't affect our Class A at all."

The overall interests of the first grade cannot be equated with the interests of Class A in the first grade.

Even if the school were to reduce the score in a general way, Shun Aragaki was confident that he could shift that loss onto the rival class, namely Class B.

"So we're going to face off against Class B again this time?"

“Of course,” the student council president nodded. “By taking over Class B’s evaluation score and making them suffer the punishment of the losers, our class’s score can increase even further.”

For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away.

This is the Matthew effect: the strong get stronger, and the winner takes all.

For Class A, which has the upper hand, as long as the school doesn't unreasonably target them at the rule level, they can continue to grow by absorbing the strengths of rival classes, no matter what form of competition they face.

More importantly, with Shun Aragaki, Arisu Sakayanagi, and Ryuji Kanzaki around, no matter how crazy High Education goes, they can't just stop acting and openly come out to personally target them.

"The student council has limited room for modification in this special exam, so I'll just apply for more rewards for the winners."

After reviewing the rules for the upcoming special exam and confirming that there were no unreasonable clauses, Shun Aragaki did not hesitate and chose to act decisively. He did not intend to change the overall framework of the exam, but simply added a reward for personal points to the exam results.

"Um... are you sure this proposal will be accepted?" Ryuji Kanzaki asked, somewhat puzzled. "The school's goal is to recover class evaluation scores in the special exams to reduce expenses, right... but by doing this, won't the reduced individual points just come back?"

"Is there a problem?" Shun Aragaki said matter-of-factly, "The two classes steal points from each other, and the losing side will have its evaluation points deducted. There is no personal points involved. I'm just helping the school fill this gap."

"Yes, that's what student council work is all about. I'm just doing my job normally."

Needless to say, this does not affect the school's plan to reduce the total score for first-year students. At most, 100 points will be taken from the 200 points that are reduced and converted into individual points as a reward for the winners of the special exam.

Wouldn't this also increase the participants' enthusiasm? It's a win-win situation!

"I also think it's fine, but will the school really agree?"

Ryuji Kanzaki looked somewhat troubled. "Highly advanced breeding programs are indeed very generous, but sometimes they can be ruthless when it comes to ripping people off."

"It's alright. We'll submit the student council's proposal on time tomorrow. The school needs to complete all the preparations before classes start the day after tomorrow. As long as the proposal isn't too outrageous, Chairman Yuecheng will definitely approve it."

Due to the tight schedule, Shun Aragaki had very little room to modify the rules of the upcoming special exam. However, he was not the only student council president in the same situation. The four homeroom teachers of the first year, the staff who arranged the special exam, and even Tsukishiro Tsunemoto himself all had to work overtime to prepare everything.

The reason things have developed to this point is ultimately due to the acting chairman's sudden idea to add a class vote, which disrupted the school's original arrangements.

Therefore, if Yuecheng doesn't want to be held accountable by the council, he needs to improve his work efficiency and thoroughly improve the shelved special examination rules before March 8th.

Therefore, the other party does not have the time to pass the buck back and forth with the student council.

As long as the rules added by Shun Aragaki are not too excessive, the acting chairman will most likely just glance at them and then decisively approve them.

"That's fine. We'll send it to him when the deadline comes tomorrow."

After explaining things to Kanzaki, the student council president stretched and closed the computer screen, clearly not intending to continue worrying about it.

Recalling his previous encounter with Ge Cheng, Long Yuan, and a few others at the bulletin board, he turned to the class fund administrator of Class A and asked:

"In the afternoon, I remember you said that you wanted every student in the class to transfer 30 personal points to the class account."

"This money should have been used to redeem Shiraishi and Nishikawa, right? How much is left?"

Since Rokusuke Koenji rejected the peaceful termination deal, Class A must compensate the two transfer students from Class B for breaking the contract, which means paying a total of 40 million personal points to offset the expulsion penalty.

However, Class A's class funds are currently insufficient, so Kanzaki suggested that the shortfall be shared among all the students in the class so that everyone could contribute together.

Shun Aragaki thought about it for a while, and after asking for everyone's opinion in the class group, he finally agreed... Although he himself didn't mind paying for it himself, since no one in Class A had as much money as him, since everyone wanted to do their part and contribute to the class, there was no need to deliberately dampen the students' enthusiasm.

So, with 30 points each for the 52 people, a total of 1560 million points were quickly transferred to the class account.

Kanzaki also used this money to gather the original class funds and terminate the contracts of Nishikawa Ryoko and Shiraishi Asuka, after which the two had no further connection with their original class.

"1560 million, plus the original 2870 million, minus 4000 million, leaves only 430 million personal points in the class account..."

Taking out his phone and opening the class fund interface, Ryuji Kanzaki glanced at the somewhat meager-looking numbers and couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly.

Apart from the first two months of the semester, when has Class A's savings ever been so pitiful?
