The Seven-Person Dropout Group, the Worst Teacher in History

Classroom of the Elite World.

Class D, first year.

The homeroom teacher, Sae Chabashira, posted the grade rankings for every subject on the blackboard, then thoughtfully drew several red lines across them.

"Ike, Sudo, Yamauchi, Hondo, Sato, Shinohara, Inogashira."

"All of you failed at least one subject in the midterm exams and will be expelled from the school."

There were five subjects in this exam.

Failing even a single subject meant expulsion.

"Heh."

The cold beauty, who usually kept a straight face, suddenly laughed.

It would have been better if she hadn't.

At the sight of her smile, the students in the class shivered.

"You bunch of idiots... you really have opened my eyes!"

Sae Chabashira slammed her hand against the desk, her smile becoming somewhat unhinged. "It's only the first midterm exam, and already seven students are facing expulsion."

"You've managed to surpass your predecessors with such ease."

"I don't think I'll ever be able to forget you lot for the rest of my life."

As she spoke, Sae Chabashira laughed in her extreme rage, even starting to clap her hands.

Although her words were mocking, she was genuinely furious inside.

This was absolutely ridiculous.

It was just a midterm exam, yet seven students were already facing expulsion.

She had to remember that when she was a student at Advanced Nurturing, she had also started in Class D, and by the final special exam in her third year, only six students had been expelled in total.

The class she was leading now was something else; not only had they reduced their class points to zero in the first month, but they also had so many people failing the midterms.

You aren't just defective products; you're straight-up trash!

Hearing Sae Chabashira's mockery, the students of Class D below began to stir restlessly.

"I-It's not our fault! The past exam papers were fake!"

Although Muraki Yamauchi stammered as he spoke, he made sure to say it loudly. "If I hadn't wasted so much time memorizing those past papers, there's no way I would have failed the exam!"

"That's right!"

With someone taking the lead, others began to complain as well.

The person who spoke up this time was Kanji Ike. "Didn't they say the midterm questions are the same every year? So why, when it was our turn to take the test, were the questions on the paper completely different from the past papers?"

"Who said that?"

Hearing Kanji Ike's words, Sae Chabashira looked at him with the contempt one might reserve for a clown.

"I don't recall ever telling you that the questions would be the same every year," Sae Chabashira said with a cold sneer. "And even if the students in previous years did get the same questions, that doesn't mean this year would be the same."

"It's just like dealing with a client. Even when facing the same client, you sometimes have to make changes based on shifts in the era and the environment."

"Instead of quibbling over these things, you'd be better off heading back to your dorms to pack your things and prepare to leave the school."

As soon as these words were spoken.

Kanji Ike's spirit suffered a heavy blow, and he collapsed limply into his chair.

"How truly pathetic."

Seeing the defeated expressions of Kanji Ike and Yamauchi Haruki, Horikita Suzune, sitting in the back of the classroom, whispered her thoughts.

"I told them long ago that if they kept going like that, they would regret it sooner or later."

Horikita Suzune said these cold words in a soft voice.

After learning from Dokuho Kouya that there was a way to pass the midterms, her focus had shifted entirely to finding that method.

Once she had obtained the past exam papers from the upperclassmen alongside Ayanokouji, Kushida, and the others, she had stopped tutoring the three idiots of Class D.

If she hadn't known about the existence of the past papers, she might have lowered herself and set aside her pride to teach the three idiots of Class D.

But once she knew those papers existed, Horikita Suzune stopped caring about the three idiots of Class D and left them to fend for themselves.

If you have the answers and still fail, you deserve to be expelled.

It was just unexpected that... the past papers would turn out to be fake.

Or rather, they were just unlucky that the questions happened to be changed for this specific year.

"Teacher, you have some responsibility for this too, since so many people are being expelled!"

Just then, Maya Sato stood up, feeling indignant.

"If you hadn't given us the wrong focus for the exam, how could so many of us have failed the History subject?"

In the original story, Class D only realized the teacher had provided the wrong study guide after being provoked by Class C.

However, due to changes in school regulations, there were now severe penalties for provocative behavior, such as suspension and monetary fines.

Paying points was a minor issue.

But if one were to miss an exam due to suspension, that would lead directly to expulsion.

Even as rampant as Class C was, they were unwilling to stir up conflict with Class D at this time, and therefore, they did not provoke them.

This resulted in the students in the class finding out that the teacher had provided the wrong study guide almost at the very last moment.

For the top students, it made no difference whether the study guide was wrong or not; they could score high regardless.

But for academic underachievers like Maya Sato, it was already a struggle just to finish the study guide, leaving them with no energy to learn anything else.

"Sato, I truly must apologize to everyone regarding this matter."

"Because I forgot."

Sae Chabashira admitted her fault honestly, yet a cold smile remained on her face.

There was no sense of remorse whatsoever.

What a truly malicious teacher.

Sitting in the back row, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka silently complained in his heart.

It was said that the students of Class D were all defective products.

In reality, that was indeed the case; most people either lacked ability or had personality flaws.

However, why did it feel like the teacher had major issues as well?

Judging by the current situation, it seemed as if Teacher Chabashira wished for everyone in Class D to just drop dead.

If not for Chabashira forgetting to mention the change in the exam scope, the entire class likely wouldn't have had so many failing grades.

At most, only the three idiots of Class D would have failed.

"This is just too much!"

"It was clearly the teacher's fault, so why am I the one who has to be expelled!"

A student from Class D had an emotional breakdown.

As problem students, they were used to causing trouble for their teachers, but they had never encountered a situation where a teacher caused trouble for them.

Even Ayanokouji, who had read extensively, was shocked by the existence of Sae Chabashira.

He couldn't believe such an outrageous teacher existed in the world.

Did Advanced Nurturing have a problem with their selection criteria?

Ayanokouji really wanted to figure out the school's selection standards, but he knew now was not the time for such things.

"Horikita, are you going to keep staying silent?" Ayanokouji asked the black-haired girl beside him.

As early as last night, he had discussed a plan with Horikita Suzune, and now he was just waiting for her to execute it.

"I actually wish these people who don't study would leave the school as soon as possible."

Horikita Suzune slowly stood up from her seat, her gaze fixed intently ahead as her crisp, forceful voice echoed throughout the classroom.

"Teacher Chabashira, I would like to use my personal points to purchase grades for the students who failed."

"How many points will it take?"
