Real teaching, but diary flow

Page 237

"Classmates... summer vacation is over." With an extremely sorrowful voice, she stated a painful fact that everyone knew: "Classes have to continue starting today. Oh, teacher, I really want summer vacation to continue."

"However, the summer vacation is over now, so everyone should be fully prepared for the upcoming classes and exams!"

"Especially our new students, you must pay more attention to your studies!"

Hoshinomiya Chie's gaze instantly locked onto Ibuki Mio.

"..."

Ibuki Mio remained silent.

Hoshinomiya Chie paused only briefly before continuing.

"Oh, everyone, there's something special. During the month from September to early October of the second semester, we'll have extra physical education classes to prepare for the Sports Festival." She raised her right index finger and circled it as she spoke. "The teacher will be handing out the new timetable and materials related to the Sports Festival later, so please keep them safe!"

The moment the words "sports festival" were mentioned, the students in the class clearly had their own reactions.

A clear dividing line was formed between students who were good at sports and those who were not, and there was a clear difference in attitude between students who disliked physical education class and those who liked it.

"Oh, and also, the school's homepage has published the activity details like information panels. Everyone can take out their devices... oh wait, this is a class meeting, and taking out devices will result in points being deducted, so please check the school's website after class to find out more!"

Stacks of class schedules and materials were distributed in order, and as everyone looked down at their materials, Hoshinomiya Chie said again:

"Finally, before explaining the rules of the sports festival, I have some good news to announce!"

“As you all probably know, our Advanced Education Program is a ‘completely closed’ school. For the first three years after enrollment, there is basically no opportunity to communicate or contact the outside world.” Hoshinomiya Chie paused. “Of course, the one on the cruise ship is different.”

The topic of conversation arose out of nowhere, and... it was completely unexpected by Asakusa Tetsu.

Just hearing Hoshinomiya Chie mention the 'complete closure' gave Asakusa Tetsu a vague sense of unease.

His premonition was quickly confirmed by Hoshinomiya Chie's next words.

"It's always been like this, but times have changed little by little lately. Things like the internet have become incredibly developed. You know, a long time ago, you couldn't even access the internet on campus."

Due to various reasons such as technology, environment, policy, and the ideas of the higher authorities, highly educated institutions obviously will not allow students to access the internet before information filtering is implemented.

Of course, things are different now. Now students can freely go online and send messages, and inappropriate information that might reveal school secrets will be selectively blocked from being sent.

That's pretty impressive.

"Many people in the country have always wanted to know about the situation within Advanced Training, and this demand is growing louder and louder." Hoshinomiya Chie's words gradually built up the narrative, leading to a result that everyone seemed to have already guessed:

"In order to respond to this expectation, and also to explore the path that advanced development should take in the future."

"The school has decided to invite some people from outside the school to participate in this year's sports festival! To showcase the talent of our students on the green field to the outside world and to the community!"

With an impassioned tone, as if she were reciting a slogan in front of a camera, Hoshinomiya Chie loudly proclaimed, her voice completely out of character with a tone so different from her past self.

...Or rather, she might just be facing the camera.

She wasn't looking at the students at all; she was looking at the security cameras.

Toru Asakusa: "......"

Can a camera at this angle really produce any decent promotional videos?

Toru Asakusa had doubts about this.

But let's put the promotional video aside for now and get back to the news itself.

...This might be getting bad.

Highly cultivated areas are safe environments.

The reason it is safe is because it is 'completely closed'; the school has a government background, making it difficult for ordinary people to interfere or influence it.

Therefore, as long as you stay in the advanced breeding environment, you don't need to worry about external factors.

One of the greatest masterpieces also went to advanced training for this reason... well, at least that's the reason on the surface.

Of course, this completely closed nature will end during the school festival, and the school will open up to invite people from outside the school for the same reason.

This was exactly what Asakusa Toru had anticipated.

What he didn't expect was that this open invitation would arrive at the sports festival ahead of schedule.

...Not brother, what's so interesting about the sports festival?

A group of students are competing in a sport. If it were other schools, wouldn't they just wander around and slack off if they weren't participating?

How many people would actually sit in the stands and watch a game all day?

Wouldn't it be better to wait a little longer until the school festival?

Students can experience various programs and projects prepared by themselves, and get a feel for what it will be like to have high-quality cattle and horses serving them. They can also see these cattle and horses fantasizing about their future youth.

What, it's about letting the outside world know more about the school!

Ultimately, it's impossible for ordinary people to be invited into a school.

Even the news of the open day is not publicly announced; the invitation is only circulated within the school's network of connections.

What Asakusa Tetsu cared about was not being noticed; being in the spotlight didn't put much psychological pressure on him.

What he cares about is that the school is no longer completely closed.

This is very important.

Because before the special exam on the deserted island, it was clear from the changes in the messages received and the recipients that the scope of this diary was not limited to the Advanced Nurturing School.

He still remembered very clearly the long list of unreleased storylines that had appeared when the page was refreshed.

The existence of the band of geniuses and the genius painter of geniuses has also been proven.

He always knew that his diary had a much larger audience.

He hadn't truly forgotten about it these past few days; he had simply chosen to selectively ignore it.

why?

Because things on campus weren't completely settled, he couldn't spare much energy to deal with things off campus.

No, that's just an excuse.

The real reason...

He seems to be experiencing some psychological issues.

Asakusa Tetsu himself was also aware of how different he was from his original self to his current self.

This cannot be explained by the idea that one quickly falls into depravity after gaining power.

Therefore, it's not the diary's fault.

Could it be the fault of the six beautiful girls surrounding him?

Of course not, how could they be wrong?

But there must be a reason why things turned out this way.

It's not about finding out whose fault it is, it's just that Asakusa Tetsu sometimes thinks about it.

why?

...For no reason.

The avoidance of certain things has reached a point where it's almost over. The first semester is ending, and normal student life is about to fade away.

Let's see how many 'guests bring their diaries' will attend this sports festival.

Having calmed down a bit, Asakusa Toru turned his attention back to Hoshinomiya Chie and the class schedule and sports festival introduction that were handed to him.

This sports festival adopted a competition format that divided all grades into two groups.

Class A and Class C formed the White Group, and Class B and Class D formed the Red Group.

Although the letters ABCD seem to differ somewhat from the planned performance, this is simply because they have been promoted to Class A.

The actual grouping did not deviate from the original plan.

Well, even if he were grouped with Class D, it wouldn't really have a big impact on his plans.

It's simply thanks to the 100 class points from Class C.

Because the two classes that lose in the red and white team competition will have 100 class points deducted from their scores.

The winner receives no reward.

A typical rule added to control class points.

Aside from the class grouping, the rest are the usual 'individual competitions' and 'team competitions' that a sports festival would have.

The rules for changes in scores and class points are as follows.

The scores for each event are the Sports Festival scores, and only the ranking is calculated.

The only thing that truly affects the outcome and the class's score is the final ranking.

First place gets 50 extra, second place remains unchanged, third place loses 50, and fourth place loses 100.

...As expected, it's still the same rule of purely deducting points.

It's not even a zero-sum game. Even if you precisely control Class D, who scored zero, until the end, it's just a matter of adding or subtracting nothing.

Considering the 100 points for the red and white groups, the net loss is still 100.

To be honest, I'm a little reluctant to participate in this stupid competition.

Fortunately, apart from the changes in class points, this sports festival also affects individual points.

Individual points and scores increase or decrease.

The target group is likely students with athletic talent but academic disadvantages.

That being said, two or three points is really too stingy.

Shouldn't you get at least five points for special skills?

The top three in a single project have a combined total of 9,000 personal points, while the last place loses 1,000 points, resulting in a net income of 8,000 personal points.

There are a total of thirteen competitive events in the entire sports festival, which are divided into those that are mandatory for all participants and those that require registration.
