Real teaching, but diary flow

"Alright, alright, that's enough." Waving his freed hand, Asakusa Tetsu said in a shooing manner, "The exam results have been announced, and now it's time to enjoy a cruise vacation. Everyone has worked hard for several days on the deserted island, so it's time to rest."

"If you have any questions and want to review the situation, you can have a brief discussion with the students in Class B and Class C. There's no need to hide these things."

"Let's just enjoy the show. It'll be boring if we take Long Yuan's jokes seriously." He shrugged and turned to look at Long Yuan. "How about we talk privately?"

With just a few simple words, Asakusa Tetsu quickly concluded that Hiyori's actions were a joke. Regardless of whether others had doubts or not, since he said so, they had to take it as a joke.

This 'authoritarianism' was established based on the results of an exam.

As to whether it was a joke or not, Hiyori knew, and Asakusa Tetsu himself knew too.

"Oh, oh, oh, time to rest!"

"Yes, yes, yes, Asakusa-kun, you've worked hard too!"

See you tomorrow!

After a moment of stunned silence, the students nodded repeatedly and left the deck.

They can still understand who is speaking and what their words mean.

Especially considering that Ichinose Honami was still holding him, for Class 1-A, the interpretation of 'goodwill' clearly has a sufficiently reasonable place.

They are even the most tolerant group of dictatorship.

So, in no time, the students in the class dispersed.

Asakusa Tetsu and three others were left in one corner of the deck, while some from the other three classes, who had overheard snippets of conversation, were hiding on the other side, hoping to witness a good show.

The exam results had just been announced not long ago, but suddenly it seemed that no one on the spacious deck cared about the astonishing outcome.

—Except for Ryu Yuanxiang.

"Wow, such impeccable control, huh?" Raising an eyebrow, Ryuen Sho intended to put his arm around Asakusa Toru's shoulder again, but glancing at Ichinose Honami who was still clinging to him, he turned around and leaned his back against the railing.

"Everyone says that Class A has a harmonious and democratic atmosphere, but now it seems that it is actually more dictatorial than me."

He grinned.

"If you're going to talk about this, then get lost. If you're going to talk about something else, I'll listen to you for a bit." Asakusa Toru said this without any politeness.

Whether it was due to masochistic tendencies or not, seeing his reaction, Long Yuanxiang shuddered and exclaimed, "Hoo hoo hoo hoo, of course, of course, I'm here to talk about the 'special exam'!"

Long Yuanxiang clapped his hands repeatedly, giving a loud round of applause.

“One thousand one hundred and four, anyone can tell how terrifying that number is.” His smile was bright: “You know, for the school, a ‘major violation’ only results in a deduction of one hundred class points.”

"The school really has some guts."

After a slight pause, Long Yuanxiang changed the subject and posed a question.

"Asakusa, guess... is the school trying to shut you up, or are they planning to create a supreme 'public enemy' for the first-year students?" He added with a smile, "Oh right, maybe the school just wants to maintain the fairness of the rules, because you guys can actually get that many points, so the school really gave them to you."

"Hmm, that's not entirely wrong."

Hearing Ryuen Sho's mocking tone, which sounded vaguely familiar for some reason, Asakusa Toru frowned and immediately launched into another remark:

"If you repeat your father's words again, I'll whip you into a spinning top with a copper-tipped leather belt."

Long Yuanxiang: "?"

After a moment of blank expression, Long Yuanxiang finally understood the meaning behind those words.

So he stopped pretending and blurted out, "Fuck you, that's how I talk, who the hell is copying your tone!"

"Stop spouting nonsense, did you even understand what I meant?" After cursing, Long Yuanxiang's smile vanished, replaced by a slightly serious expression: "If you drive me away, I'll really go and team up with that short dwarf and those idiots to kill you!"

Longyuan just mentioned three possibilities for why the school was so decisive in giving such a high number of points, as mentioned in his conspiracy theory.

In reality, both the hush money theory and the fairness theory of maintaining the rules are just pretexts to highlight the most correct possibility, not his true intention.

What he really wanted to say was that, despite the school's good intentions, they just wanted to make you the enemy of the entire grade.

I saw through this, and instead of secretly forming cliques with the other two classes, I approached you first and pointed out the problem.

This is clearly a sign of sincerity.

If you keep playing like this, don't blame me for actually going and ganging up on you with those guys.

Even if you, Asakusa Toru, are strong enough, you might not be able to withstand the firepower of three squads.

However, to be honest, if possible, Long Yuanxiang really wouldn't want things to develop to that point.

There are many reasons, such as resisting cooperation with Sakayanagi Arisu, disliking the idiots in Class D, and feeling that even if the three classes were combined, they might not be able to achieve a result greater than three as a whole.

But if I had to give a reason, there might only be one fundamental one.

He felt he could win.

Ryuen Sho believes that Asakusa Tetsu will win in the end.

That's the kind of feeling he gave to Long Yuanxiang.

As for the claim that Class A, with nearly two thousand class points, will be the richest group of dog owners from now on, and that they would be the most suitable candidates to take some personal points, etc.

These are all secondary reasons.

"That sounds exciting." Asakusa Tetsu nodded in deep agreement: "Will they come to beat me up with the little princess and her silly little sister?"

A god of war in civil war, and a silly younger sister.

If a real fight breaks out, it's likely that everyone will use their unique abilities to fight.

"However, I accept your filial piety." Before Ryuen Sho could leave, Asakusa Tetsu changed the subject and said with a smile, "You truly are my good son."

"Immediately reward you with 20 million personal points, which can be used to transfer Hiyori over."

...Hiyori.

That's a really affectionate way of addressing someone.

A glint of light flashed in Long Yuanxiang's eyes.

Shiina Hiyori: "Huh?"

Hiyori, who had been keeping quiet, was suddenly mentioned, which surprised her.

Me? Transfer there? Transfer to Class A? Be in the same class as Asakusa-kun?

...I think I'm a little tempted.

If we get closer to each other and end up in the same class, it will be easy to do things together, right?

Hiyori Shiina's heart skipped a beat; she was quite tempted by the proposal.

But Long Yuanxiang immediately realized the problem.

It's not a question of whether Shiina Hiyori should transfer to Class A, nor is it a question of how serious Asakusa Tetsu was about what he said.

Instead...

"You fucking have twenty million right now and you're giving out rewards here?"

Ryuen Sho laughed.

Chapter 240 If we were to consider the school as a hypothetical enemy

So far, the highly developed first grade has spent a total of four months.

Only considering the gains and losses of Class A, the first month's figure was 100,000, the second month's was 89,000, and the third and fourth months' were 90,200. At the beginning of August, the figures remained unchanged.

The total is 459,600.

There are forty students in the class. Even if all the points are collected and not a single point is spent, there will only be 18,384,000 individual points.

We're still a little short of 20 million...

No, you can't just use "a little" to refer to it; that's 1,616,000.

Even a fraction of that is an unimaginable number for the vast majority of students.

Only through such careful calculation could Long Yuanxiang truly understand why he had that attitude when the class teacher mentioned the "right to transfer classes in exchange for 20 million points" after the April exams.

For a normal student, this is simply an impossible number.

Among previous students, the highest individual record was only tens of millions of points obtained through fraud, far less than twenty million.

It's easy to imagine how unattainable his dream of 800 million points was.

Not to mention the living expenses of classmates, especially the expenses between exams, and the various places where points may be used, the total amount is beyond imagination.

But it's not entirely without a chance.

They might not be able to raise 800 million, but 300 or 400 million is still possible.

The prerequisite is—to find a way to empty this guy's wallet.

"So I don't have 20 million after all." As if just reminded by Ryuen, Asakusa Tetsu suddenly realized, "Then there seems to be no way to deal with it."

"Well, I actually think this is a really good idea."

With a sigh, Asakusa Tetsu raised his hand and began to calculate for Ryuen.

"Think about it, your Class C has lost 100 points, which is only a little over 600 class points, right? The difference between you and our Class A is 1,300 points, which is 130,000 points per month. If we calculate based on the next two years and 30 months, the sooner we get people over here, the more we can earn from this price difference, and the lower the cost of transferring classes will be. We can save at least 3.9 million."

"So why don't you try your best to scrape together the money and send Hiyori over?" he said.

It was quite reasonable and well-founded, but the tone sounded like Asakusa Tetsu's usual joking style.

But instead of cursing again, Long Yuanxiang fell into deep thought.

It seems, perhaps, probably... makes a lot of sense?

For a simple arithmetic problem, ignoring other possible scenarios, this is indeed the most straightforward numerical difference.

Even considering potential future changes, switching to a higher-level class with established advantages in advance is undoubtedly the right move.

Even though only two special exams have been conducted so far, four months of testing have given Long Yuanxiang a certain understanding of the Advanced Education School.

The base score for the first exam is one thousand, but this does not mean that the score will fluctuate by one thousand or more in every exam.

The highest possible reward for the second exam is also one thousand, but this is clearly a variable introduced to compensate for the difference in the behavior code exam.

A 'major violation' will result in a deduction of one hundred class points—this is the normal score change.

In addition, there are deductions for basic daily behavior. Although no detailed rules have been published, you can get a rough estimate by collecting a few data points on the control variables of your class.

In essence, the school is conservative in its distribution of class points.

In other words, Class A's position is unlikely to be shaken any further, especially with Asakusa Tetsu in the picture. Ryuen Sho can't think of any way the lower-ranked classes could reverse the situation.

What did he rely on? His third-rate tricks? Sakayanagi Arisu's extraordinary wisdom? Hirata Yosuke's childish games?

Admit it, a difference of a thousand points is fatal.

Of course, this is just an instinctive intuition telling Long Yuanxiang that this is the answer; whether it is actually true remains to be verified.

But the conclusion will not change.

He must carefully consider whether he should really do it.

What are the benefits? It's about being bound together, not just a simple matchmaking in words. Ultimately, it's hard to say whether Shiina can beat Ryuen when facing a formidable rival like Ichinose Honami, but becoming classmates would obviously bring them closer.

Besides the bundling, there's also the benefit Asakusa Tetsu mentioned: sending it over in advance is equivalent to getting a discounted transfer right, with a discount of about 20%, and there might even be more room for discounts. In short, transfer early to enjoy the benefits, and transfer late to ensure stability.

What are the downsides? The downsides are obvious. The initial investment is huge. Twenty million is not a number that just anyone can come up with. Even a single class could not possibly raise that amount.

Furthermore, after Shiina Hiyori transfers to another class and their status changes, will she still cherish the friendship she shared with her classmates in Class C? Will she still be considered 'one of us'? Betrayal... Although this word might not be appropriate, to put it extremely dramatically, what should he do if she betrays him?

These issues are complex. If Long Yuanxiang doesn't have 20 million, then all of this is nonsense and shouldn't be considered or even thought about.

But damn it, Long Yuanxiang just happens to have 20 million in his hands!

Holy crap, the twenty million I just swindled from the chairman has already been targeted by that guy Asakusa Tetsu. If he hadn't kept quiet about it, Ryuen Sho would have seriously suspected that this guy deliberately made this suggestion at this time.

tangled.

Tangled!

"...Isn't it unnecessary to make a decision now?" As if reminding her, Hiyori Shiina, the person being discussed, suddenly said, "If it's to save points, you can just decide before the end of the month."

More than the cost-effectiveness, she was a little bothered that these two guys discussed her class transfer without ever asking for her opinion.

Of course, it's just a minor concern; if I could transfer to another class...

She probably still won't switch.
