Classroom of the Elite: I Can Gain Points Without Limit

The school has now arranged a special exam involving all three grades. On this stage, even if the other side doesn't want to put in any effort, they have no choice.

That's fantastic!

"On the other hand," Vice President Nagumo turned his gaze to Aragaki Shun, "Ever since that simple match last semester, I've been thinking about having another match with you, junior. What do you think?"

In Miyabi Nagumo's view, Aragaki Shun is undoubtedly a very combative type, otherwise he wouldn't have swept through all the competitive clubs on campus right after the start of the semester.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with that; the strong should humiliate the weak and dominate everything.

"Oh~ Senior Nagumo is planning to put up another 3 million to have a match with me?"

Aragaki Shun asked with a half-smile, "Then I'd be more than happy to accept that."

Not long after enrolling, he gave him 3 million Private Points under the guise of a competition. This Yellow-haired Senior is such a sucker... What a kind person!

"Hehe~" With a slightly displeased chuckle, Miyabi Nagumo's gaze pierced through like a sharp blade, "Aragaki -junior is as confident as ever."

"In a simple track and field competition, I'm no match for my junior, but such comparisons limited to a single area are ultimately trivial. As the leader of Class A for two consecutive years, don't you think the upcoming Sports Festival is the perfect stage?"

Clearly, compared to his obsession with Manabu Horikita, Nagumo is even less willing to accept losing to a junior.

Therefore, ever since that competition at the beginning of the semester, he has been thinking about getting his revenge.

I originally thought I would have to wait until I became the Student Council President before I could change the school rules to allow for interaction between different grades.

It's truly delightful that the school has actually taken the initiative to make the changes he wanted.

"Don't worry, Senior Nagumo, I will take every exam seriously."

Aragaki Shun laughed nonchalantly, "If you want to take this opportunity to challenge me, then bring it on!"

"A challenge? Hmph~" The displeasure on his face deepened, Nagumo tapped the table with his finger. "Aragaki -kun really dares to say that!"

According to this second-year leader who advocates "true merit above all else," only when the weak face the strong can it be called a challenge.

As a senior, one should naturally be the one to calmly face challenges from subordinates.

"Fine! Arguing is pointless; in the end, facts will speak for themselves!"

Looking at the smiling but silent Aragaki Shun, Nagumo felt as if he had punched cotton, and he didn't see what he wanted to see at all.

Besides, he did lose once, so no matter what he says now, he'll just be seen as stubborn as a mule.

After calming herself down a bit, Miyabi Nagumo decided that she would take advantage of this Sports Festival to defeat both the president and Aragaki Shun, thus proving that she was the strongest among all the students at Advanced Nurturing.

Just you wait and see!

"Is your argument over?"

Having watched the tension between the two Vice President build up until the meeting room quieted down, Manabu Horikita finally spoke, his face expressionless:

"If it's over, then carefully read the documents on your desk. The Student Council must submit the relevant suggestions within three days."

"Three days? Isn't that plenty of time?"

Aragaki Shun shrugged, picked up the desktop files with a nonchalant air, and gently turned the pages one by one.

Naturally, the rules for the next semester's Sports Festival were not listed above. It's unclear whether this is because the school hasn't finalized them yet, or simply for the sake of fairness.

However, the concept behind this competition is clearly stated in the document: it is a competition between the three grades.

In addition, there will be rankings for each class within the grade. Depending on the results of the grade-wide competition and the rankings within the grade, different classes will be rewarded or punished accordingly.

These general principles were important, but they were all things the Student Council had no right to change, Aragaki Shun quickly skipped over them and flipped to the parts that required the Student Council's involvement.

First, let's look at the activities for this Sports Festival, which are divided into events for all participants and events for recommended participants.

The former is a competition that all students must participate in to Advanced Nurturing; the school has already planned it out.

The latter is an optional item; participation will still earn points, but the school does not require it, and this item needs to be suggested by the Student Council.

However, due to time constraints, the school's options were mostly running-related, including distance running, obstacle courses, hurdles, Three-legged races.

Overall, it's quite boring; picking just two or three items wouldn't make much difference.

Skipping over it lightly, Aragaki Shun flipped to the last page of the document. The moment he saw the contents, he knew the important part was coming.

"I see," Aragaki Shun said, feigning realization. "This time, does the school want us to determine the reward and punishment points for the Sports Festival ourselves?"

In short, the school has already determined the reward and punishment methods for this Sports Festival.

That is, ranking is based on grade level, with the three grades ranked according to their total scores.

Finally, based on the exam results, the grade with the highest total score is able to steal Class Evaluation Points from the other two grades.

After the looting is complete, the four classes within the grade will then distribute the points gained or lost based on their respective scores.

This simple and direct reward and punishment system is easy for anyone to understand. The key question now is: how many Class Evaluation Points can the top-ranked grade take away from the other two grades?

In this regard, the school provided several options in its document.

The first item is that the first-ranked grade directly takes 500 points from the third-ranked class. The second-ranked class does not lose any points, but within the grade, all four classes need to contribute 500 points for redistribution.

The document didn't specify the exact allocation method, but Aragaki Shun had a feeling it would be a trap.

However, as long as you become the ultimate winner, you probably won't need to worry about this issue.

Therefore, he quickly put down the document and looked directly at the other two people in the conference room.

"So, which reward/punishment score do you prefer?"

"Of course, we should max out the reward and punishment points!" Before Manabu Horikita could speak, Miyabi Nagumo immediately stated her position.

"I heard that Aragaki, in the two Special Exam this summer, powerfully unified the entire first-year class, achieving a total of 1730 Class Evaluation Points and 85 million Private Points."

"To receive so many awards in just two weeks is an unprecedented achievement since the Advanced Nurturing School. I'm incredibly envious!"

Faced with Miyabi Nagumo's somewhat strange smile, Aragaki Shun simply rolled his eyes. "Envious, huh? But even if you max out the scores, the top-ranked grade would still be 1730 points short of what they could achieve in the Sports Festival."

Among the many options provided by the school, the one that would allow the winner to reap the greatest rewards and the loser to suffer the most is that the student ranked first in the grade can steal 500 points from the second-place student and 1000 points from the third-place student.

Even if you max out the score, it's only 1500.

The key issue is that the school didn't contribute a single penny; it siphoned all the money from the other two grades.

"Indeed," Miyabi Nagumo nodded, looking quite dissatisfied, "The school was too stingy with the money spent on this Sports Festival."

The third-place class had 1000 points deducted, which seems like a lot, but the average deduction across the four classes in the grade means that each class only lost 250 points.

"Why don't we suggest to the school that they keep raising the score, at least to 2000 points in the final score?"

The main point is that it cannot be lower than the record set by Aragaki Shun in the Uninhabited Island Exam.

As the first student to complete grade-level integration since the Advanced Nurturing School, Aragaki Shun broke the record previously held by Nagumo.

"Nagumo, don't cause trouble!"

With a slight headache, Manabu Horikita turned his gaze to another Vice President, "What's your opinion, Aragaki?"

"Since Senior Nagumo wants to maximize his score, I'm naturally happy to oblige."

Without the slightest hesitation, and even considering adding fuel to the fire, Aragaki Shun asked, "Also, I wonder if you'd like to add some extra prizes to this competition?"

"What an arrogant junior!" Miyabi Nagumo's eyes narrowed slightly, but she quickly revealed a confident demeanor.

"Alright, let's get back the 3 million Private Points we gave to our junior back then, with interest, at the Sports Festival!"

After thinking for a moment, the Yellow-haired Senior looked at Manabu Horikita and extended a very enthusiastic invitation:

"Would the president like to join our game?"

"If you're willing to join, then we'll agree on a reward and punishment system: the final winner will take 5 million Private Points from the second-place winner and 10 million from the third-place winner. What do you think of that?"

"Nagumo and Aragaki," Manabu Horikita tapped the table, sounding somewhat displeased, "Don't treat the competition between students like a game."

Naturally, the Student Council President declined the so-called invitation to play the game.

However, he did not object to the two's idea of maximizing the reward and punishment points.

Regardless, as the school's undisputed strongest Student Council President in history, Manabu Horikita has full confidence in himself and his class and is not afraid of this kind of normal competition.

"Alright then, this prize will be paid by me and Aragaki -kun."

It's a bit of a shame, but having experienced this kind of thing many times, Nagumo isn't surprised.

"Including the president's share, whoever ranks higher between me and my junior will have the loser pay the winner 15 million, how about that?"

Despite Nagumo's provocative gaze, Aragaki Shun wasn't angry at all. After all, there were few such generous money-giving children in the entire Kodo Ikusei Senior High School.

"Since you want to give me money again, senior, of course I can't refuse."

"Hehe~ I hope my junior can still retain this confidence after the Sports Festival."

Both men considered victory a sure thing, and Manabu Horikita, seeing this, merely sighed and refrained from further concern.

After determining the reward and punishment points, the conscientious Student Council President turned back to the page on the Sports Festival activities and decided that each of the three students would choose a project to recommend for participation.

He chose the [All-Grade Mixed 1200m Relay], while Miyabi Nagumo chose the [Four-Way Tug-of-War], and Aragaki Shun took a final look and simply voted for the [Discus Throw].

The meeting thus came to an end.

210. Tachibana Akane- senpai's Troubles: Becoming a Fortune Telling Tool

"Isn't that Tachibana Akane- senpai? Why is she standing here all alone, feeling sorry for herself?"

As Aragaki Shun left the Student Council, he was considering where to go next when he suddenly noticed a petite figure leaning against the wall, seemingly muttering something to himself, with a look of utter frustration on his face.

That's Tachibana Akane, a senior from Class A of the Third Year, and also the secretary of the Student Council.

It wasn't surprising that she was here, but this was the first time Aragaki Shun had seen the girl looking so downcast.

"Did something upset you? Want to tell me so I can laugh at you?"

Startled by Aragaki Shun's voice, and further annoyed by his teasing words, the Bun-haired Senior raised her notebook and waved it around defiantly a couple of times. "You have no respect for your seniors at all. Come here and let me hit you a couple of times."

Tilting his head slightly, Aragaki Shun, then extended his left hand and showed it to the secretary.

"Here you go~"

"Uh~" Upon seeing this, Tachibana Akane was stunned, and asked in a daze, "What, what does this mean?"

"You wanted to pat me a couple of times, only with your left hand? I can grant your wish."

"But after you're done, please tell me what important things happened between the upperclassmen and the Student Council during this time."

Upon hearing this, the petite secretary was speechless.

She dejectedly put her notebook away and rolled her eyes at Aragaki Shun.

"You, you're quite good-looking yourself, so why do you always like to tease people?"

After muttering to herself for a moment, Tachibana Akane suddenly looked Aragaki Shun up and down several times, as if she had discovered something extraordinary.

"That's strange. Didn't you first-year students take a cruise to Uninhabited Island for survival?"

"After going through this, a normal person should be tanned and look weathered, right? Why do you look even better?"

During her time in the Student Council, Tachibana Akane was forced to lose a significant portion of her work related to the Student Council President because Manabu Horikita needed to educate his younger sister.

So, in her spare time, she was often assigned to mentor the new first-year Student Council members.

During this process, the girl had quite a bit of interaction with Aragaki Shun, and she felt that she knew the Vice President quite well.

Although the other person's good looks were already widely known in Advanced Nurturing before summer vacation, Tachibana Akane, who often worked with him, was certain that Aragaki Shun back then was definitely not as good-looking as he is now.

Or to put it more fantastically, the boy standing before her now possessed an inexplicable allure, drawing her gaze inexplicably.

Just like the sun standing in the sky, it naturally occupies the center of the world, surrounded by planets.

"These past two weeks, instead of going to exams, you've been going out of school for beauty treatments?"

Unable to resist voiced her guess, Tachibana Akane looked somewhat envious. "Could you recommend this beauty salon to me? I definitely want to try it out after I graduate."

"Unfortunately, this is just normal growth and development," Aragaki Shun replied calmly.

"I'm only a freshman in high school now. At this age, I'm in a period of rapid growth, so it's normal for things to change every two weeks."

Of course, he couldn't say that he was no longer human.

Faced with the curious gaze of the Bun-haired Senior, the boy could only try to bluff his way out of it.

"Besides, Tachibana Akane- senpai is already very cute, she shouldn't need to put so much effort into beauty."

"Cute?"

Under the earnest gaze of her junior, Senior Ju fidgeted with a strand of hair by her ear, her eyes darting around, avoiding eye contact.

"You frivolous junior, how dare you joke about your seniors like that!"
