No Interest in Class Competition, the Declaration to Transfer Classes for 20 Million

Upon hearing Dokuho Kouya's words, the students in the class fell into deep thought.

They had learned about the school's hidden rules on the second day of school, specifically regarding the quality assessments.

As long as they managed themselves strictly from here on out and avoided tardiness, leaving early, or slacking off during class, they wouldn't have too many points deducted by the school for performance issues.

Just as Dokuho Kouya had said, now that they knew this, it was impossible for them to be left behind by a 200-point gap like the second-year students in other grades.

Beyond that, there was even more exciting news.

That was the fact that they had the opportunity to overtake the class rankings in the very first month, promoting from Class B to Class A.

Such a prospect undoubtedly brought a great deal of motivation to everyone in the class and helped boost their confidence.

Dokuho Kouya's actions had indeed brought far too many benefits to the class.

Even if he were to do nothing from this point forward, he would still remain one of the people who had contributed the most to the class over the next three years.

"Kouya, I know you've contributed a lot to the class, but I'm still a bit confused."

Ryuji Kanzaki narrowed his eyes slightly. "According to what you said, we will be participating in many special exams over the next three years. Even if we rise to Class A at the very beginning, it's possible to drop back to Class B or even lower classes midway through."

"If you are willing to contribute your strength to the collective, the possibility of the class remaining in Class A by graduation would undoubtedly be much higher, which should be beneficial for you as well."

People willing to enter this school, aside from valuing the benefit of three years of free tuition, also did so because they could choose their preferred universities and jobs upon graduation.

But to obtain the opportunity to choose one's career, one had to graduate as a student of Class A.

In Ryuji Kanzaki's view, in order to enjoy the school's benefits, Dokuho Kouya shouldn't be slacking off so early; he should be advancing and retreating with the class, helping them reach Class A in the end.

"But that would be far too simple."

Dokuho Kouya smiled slightly, busy crafting his persona. "It is precisely because I understand the rules of this school that I feel leading the class to become Class A is a very simple matter."

"Even classmate Kanzaki feels that our class has the potential to become Class A in the first month; my own thoughts are no less ambitious, perhaps even more optimistic than yours."

Dokuho Kouya held up a finger. "If I were to lead the class, it would be easy to take everyone to Class A, but that would be too boring."

Bluffing, right?

Who doesn't know how to do that?

Since arriving at Advanced Nurturing, regardless of whether he actually does anything, he should just start by talking big.

As long as he doesn't end up leading the class in the end, there's no risk of being slapped in the face.

Creating an atmosphere of "he is very strong" in front of the audience is what matters most.

Upon hearing this, Ryuji Kanzaki frowned. "If you feel that leading the class to Class A is boring, then why stay?"

In this school, there is no point if you don't graduate from Class A.

Since you have no intention of rising to Class A, wouldn't it be better to just leave the school?

It couldn't be that you're just greedy for that three years of tuition, could it?

Hearing the question, Dokuho Kouya's eyes brightened slightly.

Good question.

It was perfect for shaping his persona.

"Classmate Kanzaki, I believe I mentioned earlier that it is also possible to enter Class A by paying 20 million points, right?" Dokuho Kouya asked.

"You don't mean..." The purple-haired boy's eyes widened slightly, his originally cold and serious face turning to one of shock.

"That's right, I intend to collect 20 million personal points and rely on my own strength to transfer into Class A." Dokuho Kouya said with a confident smile. "That would be at least a little bit challenging."

As soon as these words were spoken, the students in the class became tense, and even their breathing slowed down.

"Is this really possible?" Sweat appeared on Ryuji Kanzaki's forehead, and he looked somewhat incredulous.

Even for a working adult with a steady job, it would likely take several years to save up 20 million.

And that was without even considering the costs of food, clothing, housing, and transportation.

If daily expenses were factored in, even an adult with a stable job would need a dozen years or more to scrape together 20 million.

Not to mention that Dokuho Kouya was just a student, who might not even be able to obtain 100,000 points per month.

Although the school would hold special exams in the future, wanting to get 20 million within three years was simply a fantasy.

"It's possible."

The victory declaration of the Class B lone wolf!

Dokuho Kouya felt as if he had inadvertently reached some kind of classic scene.

If the audience were watching, they might feel a sense of familiarity and go crazy with the memes.

Hiss... as the saying goes, even bad publicity is publicity; perhaps even if he crashes and burns later, he might be able to gain even higher popularity points.

"I understand what you mean, but I still want to say a few more words."

Ryuji Kanzaki still hadn't given up.

He clearly recognized that Dokuho Kouya possessed great strength and would play a crucial role in the upcoming class competition.

If he were to just let him go without contributing to the class, then the class would be missing a valuable combat force.

"Dokuho, although you know a great deal, you haven't personally experienced a special exam. It might seem simple to you right now, but implementing it could prove unexpectedly troublesome."

Kanzaki said in a low voice, "Even though I just said that knowing the exam rules gives us a chance to reach Class A in the first month, that was just something said in the heat of the moment. Now that I've calmed down, I still can't guarantee that the class can ascend to Class A so smoothly."

The implication of his words was that class competition is quite difficult and not as easy as you think; it would be better to give up on collecting 20 million points and just advance alongside the class.

"If that were truly the case, I would be even less inclined to offer my strength to the class," Dokuho Kouya shook his head. "If we can't reach Class A even after receiving such hints, it would only prove that this class is hopelessly incompetent."

"In that case, why should I lead such a class to Class A?"

His words were harsh, but they were the truth.

Class B was effectively taking an open-book exam at this point.

If they couldn't even outperform Class A with this level of advantage, then there was truly no need to waste any more effort on this class.

"However, rest assured, I will still participate in the special exams as an ordinary member of Class B."

"But as for things like class decision-making, I won't be participating."

The strategies adopted by Class B in the original work were basically the worst possible choices.

Dokuho Kouya wanted to distance himself from these matters as early as possible, so as not to be affected by the poor performance of Class B.

After speaking, Dokuho Kouya walked down from the podium and returned to his seat under the gazes of everyone.

Even after he sat down, the gazes of the others did not drift away.

Especially the girl sitting next to him, who kept blinking as she looked over.

"Sayo, class is about to start, you know."

Dokuho Kouya reminded her.

"Oh..."

Sayo Ando nodded slightly, but her brown eyes still glanced over from time to time.

"If you slack off during class again, class points will be deducted."

"If you want to look, then look after class."

Dokuho Kouya said with a light chuckle.

"No, I won't look anymore!"

Sayo Ando's face flushed slightly, and she hurriedly turned her head away.
