Classroom of the Elite: I Can Add Points Without Limit
However, every loss has its gain; with girlfriends vying for his attention, the one who ultimately benefits is naturally the one with the cheat code—
Because he alone could not match Aragaki Shun, with the encouragement of a certain malicious person, lovers often formed groups, seemingly reluctant but actually eager, to launch a multi-on-one challenge against him.
In a short period of time, the Leader of Class A, who was almost completely obsessed with good looks, had already enjoyed several unique nights.
Groups like the "heart-wrenching group" of Ichinose Honami and Hasebe Haruka; the "soft girl group" of Shiranami Chihiro, Wang Meiyu, and Yamamura Miki; the "Literary Girl group" of Wang Meiyu and Shiina Hiyori; and the Student Council underhanded tactics group" of Ichinose Honami, Ibuki Mio, and Tachibana Akane...
In short, he had a wonderful time these past few days, completely forgetting about Ayase.
It wasn't until February 25th, when Hoshinomiya teacher distributed test papers in the classroom, announcing that the entire first grade would be taking their End-of-Year Exam that day, that Aragaki Shun finally pulled his attention away from his overly enjoyable nightlife and turned his focus back to the class competition.
Of course, it was just a regular Written Exam, which was no challenge for Class A, whose average score was over 85. Even the other three classes in the first year did not have any students who were expelled for failing the exam.
However, during the first-year End-of-Year Exam, the upper grades were also undergoing Special Exam involving withdrawal and Class Evaluation Points, and the only student to withdraw came from the original Class C in the second year.
"You get what you ask for, "Aragaki Shun said, adding that his threats were never just empty words.
Since the original Class C in the second year are now sitting in the positions of Class A, still harboring some unrealistic expectations, he doesn't mind shattering all their fantasies.
As for the original Class D of the second year, they were spared by Aragaki Shun because they knelt down quickly enough.
In this way, three second-grade classes were completely under his control.
After the unfortunate student finished his withdrawal procedures, the Leader of Class A, along with representatives from the three second-year classes, invited the core management of the former Class C in the second year to a coffee shop, where he immediately greeted them with a scathing remark:
"Do you want to continue? You have a Special Exam scheduled for your third semester of second year. If you want to continue, I suggest you select the dropouts to be sacrificed in advance."
"..."
Under the watchful eyes of Aragaki Shun and the other three classes, the administrators of the original Class C in the second year, led by Nanpi, fell silent, their faces unusually grim.
Should we persevere, stubbornly resist Aragaki-kaicho's suppression, and wait for a turning point?
But can we really keep going...?
Recalling the hardships and pressures of those days, the three people from Nanpi were filled with despair.
Needless to say, their persistence seems to have completely lost its meaning.
After the Mixed Training Camp in January and the Special Exam in February, the evaluation scores of the four second-grade classes have undergone almost dramatic changes.
Now, they've even lost the Class A spot they worked so hard to get.
Second grade, original Class C, score 499 → 441
Second-year original Class D: 372 points → 456
Second Grade, Kiriyama Class: 200 points → 135
Second-year Asahina Class: 156 points → 382
That's right, reality is just that absurd. The position of Class A in the second year went through Kiriyama's class at the beginning, then Asahina Class, and then the original Class C, and finally it fell to the original Class D.
The Matoba of four classes taking turns reaching the top was astonishing to anyone familiar with the rules of Advanced Nurturing.
But this fantastical thing really did happen—
During the Mixed Training Camp, one student from each of the original second-year Class C and Class D was expelled. However, the loss in Class Evaluation Points was only 100 points. Considering that the two classes achieved first and second place in the overall group, their Class Evaluation Points actually increased rather than decreased last month.
Therefore, even after the Special Exam in February, one student from the original Class C in the second year was expelled. The evaluation scores of both classes still exceeded 400. Among them, the original Class D had no expulsions because they failed quickly, and even surpassed the former to take the position of Class A.
As for the Kiriyama and Asahina Class, they had a lot of Class Evaluation Points deducted after the Mixed Training Camp. The former even had to spend 400 points at once to avoid expulsion, resulting in a deficit in their Class Evaluation Points. So even though they won big in the Special Exam in February, the evaluation scores of the two classes were still not high.
Of course, neither Aragaki Shun nor the rest of the Kiriyama team cared much about it.
After all, the second-year students will be studying in Advanced Nurturing for more than a year, so the current ranking is meaningless. Therefore, let the original Class D occupy the Class A position for a few more days and enjoy it.
What's more important now is the attitude of the original Class C; they're the only ones in the entire second year who haven't completely given in.
The three from Nanpi: "..."
Silence, and more silence.
They finally made it to Class A, and they've only recently escaped Miyabi Nagumo's control, so why are they so quick to bow down to another powerful figure?
In that case, wouldn't Nagumo have been expelled for nothing?
But reality is cruel. Seeing that Aragaki Shun's patience was about to run out, the three of Nanpi dared not hesitate any longer—if they continued to remain silent, perhaps one of them would be the next second-year student to be expelled?
Thinking about this inevitable future, the three could only grimace as they represented the original Class C of the second year, along with Aragaki Shun and three other classes, to discuss and sign the final contract that would determine the fate of the second year:
--[First: Aragaki Shun fully supported the second-year Kiriyama class in their eventual graduation from Class A;]
--[Article 2: The entire second-year class will jointly create a grade-level account, which will be managed by Kiriyama Ikuto and jointly supervised by the class leaders Asahina Nazuna, Nanpi, and Momiyama;]
--[Article 3: All students in the four second-grade classes, after receiving a monthly living allowance of 20,000 yuan, must deposit any excess Private Points corresponding to their Class Evaluation Points into the grade-level account;]
--[Article 4: All members of Class 2- Kiriyama will have their Private Points earned during the Special Exam period automatically credited to the grade-level account. Members of the other three classes may voluntarily decide whether to have their Private Points earned during the Special Exam period credited to the grade-level account; if so, their contribution will be recorded.]
--[Article 5: Whenever Private Points in their grade account reach 20 million, the Student Council President Aragaki Shun, will preside over the selection process to transfer one student from the next lower-ranked class to Class A. The selection method will prioritize contribution; if contributions are equal, a vote will be held; if votes are tied, a lottery will be held.]
--[Article 6: Students who are granted a transfer opportunity, but whose personal contribution is not equivalent to 20 million, must repay the remaining Private Points invested in the grade's account by the students who did not graduate from Class A, in cash at a rate of 1.2 times the amount invested.]
This is an agreement between second-year students. Simply put, the Kiriyama class will take the Class A spot, and then the entire grade will raise funds to allow as many students from the lower-ranked classes as possible to transfer into the Class A.
After finalizing these six main clauses, Aragaki Shun and the heads of the four classes filled in dozens of detailed supplementary rules, such as how contributions were tallied and whether the grade-level account could be used in the event of a student dropping out.
After everyone reluctantly reached a consensus, the final issue was about Aragaki Shun's role and rights in the second year:
--[Article 7: Provided that no relevant personnel are expelled, all second-year students shall unconditionally obey all instructions from Aragaki Shun regarding class competition. If any second-year class wishes to change its class representative, it must be done through a class-wide vote in the presence of Aragaki Shun.]
--[Article 8: After Aragaki Shun makes a decision, if any second-year student deliberately disobeys during an exam, undermines the grade's strategy, and seriously damages the grade's interests, Aragaki Shun has the right to order representatives from each second-year class to further investigate and hold the relevant personnel accountable, and even apply to the school for expulsion arbitration;]
--[Article 9: Second-year students are required to transfer 2 million Private Points to Aragaki Shun's personal account each month as an investment return to guide the overall strategy of the second year; the above.]
With these nine articles signed by everyone, the entire second year fell into his hands.
If we also consider the overall trend in first grade, then the three grades together control two-thirds of the market.
In the future, if there are Special Exam that require all students in the school to take together, Aragaki Shun can certainly say:
The responsibility for Class 12, Grade 3 of Advanced Nurturing rests on my shoulders!
The form change of 323. lv.7; now he lacks nothing.
Advanced Nurturing Class 12 of Grade 3, the weightlifting record of Aragaki Shun has finally reached an unprecedented height for the school.
Led by representatives from the four second-year classes— Asahina Nazuna, Kiriyama Ikuto, Nanpi, and Momiyama —the group carefully reviewed all the detailed terms of the contract several times before finally signing their names with mixed feelings.
"From now on, we'll be partners working together under Aragaki-kaicho for the entire second year, united in purpose."
After the contract was signed, Kiriyama Ikuto couldn't hide the smile on her face, nor did she want to pretend to.
The man rubbed his palms together, constantly looking for ways to demonstrate his loyalty to Aragaki Shun, displaying the demeanor of a sycophant who would obey any command.
It's settled! It's settled! From this moment on, the final winning class for second grade has been completely decided!
No matter what happens in the future, as long as this contract is not voided, everyone in their class will be able to graduate from Class A and receive the conditions promised by the school. How could they not be overjoyed?
In return, the conditions they need to pay are simply to keep a maximum of 20,000 yen in living expenses each month, and then follow all of Aragaki Shun's instructions regarding the Special Exam for the next year or so of campus life... Compared to the gains, these conditions are practically negligible, since they still have to submit to Miyabi Nagumo before Aragaki Shun makes his move, right?
From the initial joy and pride of being assigned to the original Class A, to the anger and resentment of being overtaken by the Asahina Class, to the fear and despair of being expelled by Nagumo and one class leader after another, and finally being supported by Aragaki Shun to defeat the Asahina Class and see hope again... After experiencing so many twists and turns, the Class A position was finally regained, which makes people want to cry.
I'm so heartbroken! I can never repay Aragaki-kaicho's kindness!
Seeing the obsequious attitude of Kiriyama and the others from the original Class A, Nanpi and Momiyama were speechless, but they couldn't say much. They could only mutter to themselves why they weren't the first to curry favor with Kiriyama's group, and now they could only watch as Kiriyama's group gloated in front of them.
Fortunately, they weren't completely deprived of their chance to graduate from Class A.
According to the agreement signed by all second-year students, whenever the number of Private Points accumulated in the grade's account reaches 20 million, Aragaki Shun will immediately preside over a transfer meeting to select a suitable student from the three lower-ranked classes to transfer to Class A.
When this clause was finalized, representatives from the other three second-grade classes could all breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, they had taken too many empty promises from Miyabi Nagumo before, so it was inevitable that they would have some doubts about this agreement where the entire grade would save money together to get into an A-level class.
Now, Aragaki Shun has offered to help someone transfer classes as soon as they accumulate 20 million yen... This is far more sincere than Miyabi Nagumo treating their second-year students' funds as her own and squandering them at will.
"I thought you went to great lengths to unify the second-year students in order to squeeze more and more Private Points out of us," Asahina Nazuna said, her gaze towards Aragaki Shun subtly shifting. "But it turns out your appetite is much smaller than I imagined."
According to the last clause of the agreement, the second-year students are required to transfer 2 million Private Points to Aragaki Shun's private account every month as an investment return to guide the overall strategy of the second-year students.
That seems like a significant number.
However, the number of students in Asahina Class Takahashi is still 33; after removing Miyabi Nagumo, Class 4 still has 33 students; and the former Class C and Class D, which had students drop out during the Mixed Training Camp and the Special Exam in February, now have 33 students... In total, there are still 133 students in the second year.
Two million Private Points per month, when divided among all second-year students, averages out to only 15,000 Private Points per person per month. Compared to Aragaki Shun's power and status over the entire second-year class, this is nothing at all.
To put it simply, there are only 14 months left until graduation in the second year. Even if you receive 2 million per month, the total would only be 28 million.
During the Mixed Training Camp Exam, in order to help Kiriyama Ikuha cancel his expulsion from the original second-year Class C and Class D, Aragaki Shun first used 20 million Private Points to help Kiriyama Ikuto cancel his expulsion penalty, and then gave the same value in cash to Takahashi voluntarily withdrew from school.
If we disregard the exchange rate between cash and Private Points, the cost of this operation alone is approximately 40 million, far exceeding 28 million... In other words, purely from an economic perspective, our simultaneous leadership of the Student Council President of both first- and second-year students is absolutely a losing proposition.
Is it that the sons of the powerful and wealthy don't care about money, or is he genuinely a helpful and kind boss?
After being reminded by Asahina Nazuna, Kiriyama Ikuto, Nanpi, and Momiyama also realized this, and their eyes flashed with inexplicable thoughts.
"President, how about you increase the compensation a little? For example, how about changing it from 2 million to 3 million per month?"
"At 3 million per month, that's only 42 million Private Points over 14 months. Compared to your total investment, that's just enough to break even."
Kiriyama Ikuto was the first to pledge his loyalty.
Since everyone in their class is already confirmed to graduate from Class A, instead of giving up the extra Private Points in their grade account to members of the other three classes as transfer fees, they should use them to solidify their class's position in Aragaki Shun's heart.
Nanpi, Momiyama, and others. "..."
To be fair, they certainly didn't agree with Kiriyama Ikuto's suggestion. After all, if that bastard succeeded in using their connections to curry favor, neither the tangible benefits nor the superiors' goodwill would come their way.
The problem is, if they speak out against it at this time, will they incur the wrath of the Student Council President?
Before the group could figure it out, Aragaki Shun simply waved his hand.
"The contract has been successfully concluded, so there's no need to do anything further. Just follow the terms and conditions!"
Ultimately, compared to a mere ten or twenty million Private Points, what's more important to Aragaki Shun is the power to rule over the entire second-year class.
And because of the Takahashi young trees, the search for the pasture, the paper harvest, the strategy, the tragic girl, the strategy, the industry, the guide, the forced play, the retreat, the house, the old, the dispersal, all the mother, the choice, the love, the dazzling, the meal, the old, the mountain, the snatching, the apricot, the yo.
Most importantly, it's crucial to preserve as much of the second-year funds as possible so that more students from lower-ranked classes can graduate from Class A... This will help Aragaki Shun acquire Source Power through Advanced Nurturing, the value of which far exceeds worldly money.
Of course, Kiriyama Ikuto, Nanpi, and Momiyama were unaware of this, so everyone just felt that this Student Council President from an extraordinary family was indeed magnanimous, and having such a superior was definitely a great thing for all of them, the second-year students.
After all, this way, the grade's account can accumulate to 20 million much faster, and then one student can be immediately selected from the lower-ranked classes to transfer to Class A, which has the highest evaluation score.
As the number of students in Class A increases, the speed at which the grade's account accumulates 20 million will also increase. In addition, considering that the Special Exam have become a process of exploiting the second-year students, they may actually be able to accumulate several or even a dozen Permanent Transfer Quota in the remaining 14 months.
At least, everyone present should be qualified.
That kind of future would be the best!
[Automatic Source Power Acquisition in February: 8 items due to prolonged impact]
[Achievement Completed: Community of Destiny (Ichinose Honami), your connection to this world has increased, Source Power +4.]
[Achievement Completed: Victory Upon Victory, securing a victory in the Mixed Training Camp Exam, Source Power +3.]
[Achievement Completed: Loser Expelled - A total of 4 second-year students dropped out in the two Special Exam. Source Power +9.]
[Completed Achievement: Weightlifting Champion, Completed Integration of Two Grades, Became the Uncrowned King of Advanced Nurturing, Source Power +16.]
[Source Power: 10 → 50 (Current efficiency: 8 items per month)]
After signing the relevant supplementary contracts with all the second-year students, Aragaki Shun happily took the elevator to the deserted rooftop of the teaching building.
From the beginning of January during the winter break to the end of February, the Source Power on my Personal Panel has increased by another 40.
However, for someone who has already entered the Transcendent Realm, this amount of resources is not only a drop in the ocean, but if all of it is invested in strengthening, it is indeed difficult to achieve a complete transformation.
This is the helplessness of living in an impoverished world.
Fortunately, factors like lifespan are no longer pressing for him now. Even if his monthly gains are limited, as long as he continues to grow stronger, he will eventually reach the end of his life.
Therefore, we absolutely cannot stop.
[Sun Kin - Star Power lv.6 (0/20) → Sun Kin - Star Power lv.7 (0/40)]
[Sin of Gluttony lv.6 (0/20) → Sin of Gluttony lv.7 (0/40)]
[Source Power: 50 → 10 (Current efficiency: 8 items per month)]
The moment the numbers on the panel started flashing, Aragaki Shun felt as if an invisible hand was clenching and releasing his heart.
With just one level increase in each of his two talents, the Source Power he had accumulated and could freely use during this period was easily depleted.
The young man sighed softly, his fingertips trembling slightly. "Earning money is like pulling silk from a cocoon, but spending it is like a dam bursting..."
