The Wager: Twenty Million
It is worth noting that the student with the highest score across all competitions will receive a separate reward of 100,000 Private Points.
That's right, it's all, meaning the scope of comparison will be expanded to the entire grade.
In addition, all competitions will be included, but the scope has been expanded to include the top three students in each grade, who will receive a reward of 10,000 Private Points.
To put it bluntly, nobody's short of 10,000 points.
But the school simply used it as a reward.
They've already issued an invitation to visit, but aren't they even planning to go all out?
In total, the net output of this Sports Festival is '152,000 Private Points '. The 10,000 points for second and third year students cannot be included in the calculation.
'Class Points: -100 points'. Luckily, we brought Class D back to zero beforehand, otherwise we would have lost over 300 Class Points this time.
We're losing 400,000 every month. Seriously, brother, can we not take this exam?
However, despite his dislike, Asakusa Toru still had to carefully and diligently plan his exam schedule.
The reason is simple: in addition to what was mentioned above, there is also a 'punishment'.
"Teacher, what kind of punishment is this for the last ten students?"
Someone raised their hand and asked Hoshinomiya Chie about the details of the punishment.
Details of the punishment vary by grade level, so you should check with your homeroom teacher.
"For first graders... Teacher, I remember, it's a deduction of points, right?" Hoshinomiya Chie thought for a moment and gave the answer, "The bottom ten students will have ten points deducted from their written test scores in the next exam. The specific list and the method of deduction will be announced at that time."
"The teacher won't tell you now!"
She straightened her back and accentuated the curves of her chest.
As soon as he finished speaking, a chorus of sighs erupted from the class.
Three points may not seem like much, but it starts to become quite a lot when you get to the ten-point range.
It could easily drag a small number of students who barely pass into the abyss of failing and dropping out of school.
Therefore, if you want to pass through safely...
They need to prepare for the Sports Festival next month and the midterm exams even further in the future, right on the first day of school.
Chapter 264 The Bet: Twenty Million
Once the Sports Festival's entry forms are accepted, the deadline cannot be changed.
Similarly, if a team event is missing members, it will be considered impossible to participate in the competition, and the rules will be canceled.
However, you can spend '100,000 Private Points' to select a substitute to play.
Another project that devours points.
The moment he saw this rule, Asakusa Toru made up his mind.
He remembered the rule, and the rule appeared as promised.
But he didn't calculate it carefully when he first found out; now that he's calculated it...
Ah, the Sports Festival.
That being said, you should still participate.
Because there was a class meeting to be held in the gymnasium later, although Asakusa Toru really wanted to finalize the list of participants quickly and efficiently, he still had to move to the gymnasium with everyone.
This is a meeting of the entire grade.
More than 400 teachers and students will gather in the gymnasium, and the students from the twelve classes of grades one through three will be divided into red and white groups.
"I'm Fujimaki from Class 3-A, and I'm in charge of the Red Team's overall command this time."
Although it brought together teachers and students from three grades, the teachers' presence was mainly to maintain order. Most of the discussions, whether about tactics or getting to know each other across grades, were conducted by the students themselves.
Not far away, the third-year students of Class 3-A, belonging to the Red Team, raised their hands to call the first-year Red Team students to join them. Judging from the voices, their commander-in-chief was not Horikita Manabu.
This will likely surprise many people.
The Red and White Battle covers the entire grade, including second-year students.
However, their movements seemed somewhat restrained.
They give off a rather unique vibe—they want to put in the effort and work hard, but they don't dare to be too obviously arrogant.
Asakusa Toru knew the reason.
The Advanced Nurturing second-year students have already been taken over.
The one who completely rules them is Miyabi Nagumo from Class 2-A.
The blond-haired man raised his hand in front of him at that moment.
His dyed golden hair, his face which wasn't conventionally handsome but could still be categorized as so, his somewhat nauseating aura, and his classic arrogance.
It has the feel of a smooth and successful life where you've won everything without any obstacles.
In fact, this was the first time that Asakusa Toru had met Miyabi Nagumo directly.
"Yo, Honami, I'm Miyabi Nagumo, the commander-in-chief of the White Team this time." With her hand raised, Miyabi Nagumo walked straight towards Asakusa Toru Ichinose Honami.
The goal is quite clear.
"Nagumo- senpai, we're not close enough to call each other by our first names yet. Please call me Ichinose, thank you."
But this sharpness was decisively broken by Ichinose Honami in the next instant.
Yes, they weren't familiar with each other at all.
Ichinose Honami never went for Student Council interview, nor did she join any other clubs.
She was content in her own little space, her own little world, with Asakusa Toru by her side.
Naturally, there was no opportunity to contact Miyabi Nagumo.
However, unlike others, as a renowned Archangel in the first year, Ichinose Honami's fame easily spread among the first-year students through the club and reached Miyabi Nagumo's eyes.
He was naturally intrigued after just one glance.
"Where did this blond thug come from?" However, this tentative exchange, which was made with interest, was not only rejected by Ichinose Honami herself, but even the man next to her sneered and said something that seemed quite contemptuous.
As Asakusa Toru's words were like a signal to start a group, Ryuen Kakeru followed suit without hesitation.
"Anyway, it's not mine," he said.
"... You guys..." Miyabi Nagumo's expression changed instantly. "Don't you know how to show some respect to your seniors?"
Originally, he should have been able to handle his first-year junior, who was a 'lower', with ease.
But to my surprise, I was attacked after just saying hello.
"I'm truly sorry, but if you're just someone who only intends to intimidate others with your seniority, then I really have nothing to say." Asakusa Toru shrugged, not even glancing at him directly.
He was thinking about other things.
That's right, it's grouping.
If things proceed as normal...
The red team will win, and the white team will lose.
After several twists and turns, Class D was able to achieve a high score. Coupled with the inherent qualities of Class A in the Class 3-A, it is not surprising that they achieved a superior score.
But the difference is actually not that big.
At least in Asakusa Toru's memory, the score difference at the end of the first game was very small.
Therefore, as long as you add yourself as a variable, the balance of victory or defeat will tip instantly.
Not to mention that the situation has changed now, and they could easily arrange for Class D to throw the match.
Keep in mind that they're living off their own meager welfare allowance of 21,000 yuan; if they were to try and steal the outcome of this match...
Oh.
Then let's give them a few more pointers.
"Very good, very good, very good." Asakusa Toru's attitude immediately ignited Miyabi Nagumo's anger.
He wasn't unfamiliar with people who challenged him, but they always showed some respect. This guy, on the other hand, came in with such an arrogant attitude.
First grader, you're doing great.
"State your name, you're a first-year student." Miyabi Nagumo revealed a sharp look. "I originally wanted to have a head-on confrontation with Horikita-senpai during this Sports Festival, and the open day would also allow outsiders to see my strength."
"But now it seems I might have to take care of you, this troublemaker, during this Sports Festival."
When Asakusa Toru spoke, no one else in Class 1-A dared to interrupt, and when Ryuen Kakeru spoke, no one in First-Year Class C spoke either.
What they were all waiting to observe was the attitude of these two people.
Without a doubt, the two of them are the ones in charge of these two first-grade classes.
And... it seems like they've already partnered up.
I had heard some time ago that Class A of the first year amassed over a thousand Class Points during the Uninhabited Island Exam, setting a historic record.
He seems to be a guy who's become arrogant and conceited because of his brief success.
"Oh, really?" Asakusa Toru snapped out of his daze, but still didn't look directly at Miyabi Nagumo. Instead, he turned to Ichinose Honami: "Anyway, Honami, please submit all the applications I can."
He said something that left everyone in the room somewhat stunned.
Even in Advanced Nurturing, Miyabi Nagumo isn't considered a major enemy; at most, she's just an elite monster.
A prodigy with a smooth life, an outstanding student among ordinary people.
This is Miyabi Nagumo.
He seized the advantage of arriving first and dominated the second year, which was arguably his only strength.
They held a whole year's worth of resources in their hands.
But apart from that, there's nothing else he can say.
In a limbo, neither here nor there.
It's normal that Asakusa Toru didn't bother with him.
As for reciting all the projects on the spot, it wasn't to show off in other people's eyes.
It's simply because there's no need to hide it; such things will get out sooner or later.
Because it was an open day, Asakusa Toru shouldn't have been so flamboyant.
When faced with other outsiders who might infiltrate the group, he should play the game behind the scenes, just like when school started.
However, he ultimately chose not to conceal his already revealed physical abilities, and instead opted to unleash them at full power.
The reason is simple.
Asakusa Toru felt that this might be an opportunity.
Yes, that's right.
In this seemingly unchanging Advanced Nurturing, the arrival of an outsider will become an opportunity for him to change himself.
Find your most original, primal self, and rediscover your own unique beginning.
Let's resolve this big problem that's been weighing on our hearts.
So, go all out, sweat it out, and become the most dazzling and radiant presence.
Sweep through this Sports Festival.
"... Hey, are you serious?" Hearing Asakusa Toru's words, a second-year student finally couldn't help but interrupt.
"Report all items or something..."
Miyabi Nagumo should have reprimanded him for his rudeness, for interrupting without her permission, which was extremely disrespectful.
But this time he chose to tolerate it.
Because he shared the same idea.
"If it's just for the sake of putting on this line, then I admit, you win." Miyabi Nagumo's expression was a little unpleasant. "But you'd better not back out at the last minute when you submit your application and become that clown."
