The Exam Organizer Is Chosen / Sakayanagi's Asking for Trouble

"Are you satisfied, Sakayanagi Arisu?"

"Well, although there are still a few minor flaws, I think it's acceptable for it to this extent."

Having also identified the flaw in Morishita's words, Sakayanagi nodded in agreement.

Chapter 294 Selection of Examination Supervisors

"Please, Xiao Fanbo."

Not much slower than Class A, Class B quickly confirmed that Ichinose would be in charge of the exam.

The existence of Twenty Million Personal Points relief funds gives Class B considerable leeway in selecting a leader.

In comparison, Class C and Class D each have their own difficulties, especially Class D.

"I disagree with this. Maezono has sworn she didn't do it."

Once again, in Class D classroom, Hirata, filled with resentment at his own powerlessness, stood up after his transformation and interrupted the class meeting.

After the forest exam, Class D's Class Points only dropped to twelve points because the boys' group failed, even though the girls' group did well.

Because the risks and rewards were clearly disproportionate, Horikita Suzune decided to give up on this Special Exam and push Maezono into the scapegoat position.

According to the information provided by Karuizawa, Maezono made the move to drag Kushida out of school with her, and the attack on the forest school by wild boars was not accidental.

He listened to students from other classes and framed his classmate.

In the Maezono, there was already a way to meet one's death.

"I swear I'm Maezono, not a girl, so does that mean she's not a girl either?" Karuizawa wasn't intimidated by Hirata's dark expression.

She had long disliked Maezono because of their past disagreements, and because Maezo dared to help Ayanokoji deal with Aoyama.

"But you have no evidence to prove that Maezono did those things."

Hirata was somewhat suspicious that this was Karuizawa retaliating against Maezono, and he didn't think that Kushida's one-sided account was enough to convict Maezono.

"Why do we need to prove it? Do you think Shiki and Kushida would lie?"

"Besides, nobody here will listen to you."

As he stood up for Horikita, Karuizawa's gaze swept over some of the boys in his class.

After her gaze swept over the group, many boys voiced their support, choosing Maezono as the person in charge of the exam.

With Class D's Class Points now at zero, the only person in the class who has money to lend them some relief is Aoyama, who is associated with the Karuizawa Aoyama clan.

If the boys are like this, one can only imagine how the members of her clique are.

Class C.

Two different opinions emerged during the class meeting: one put Ryuen in charge, and the other put Ayanokoji in charge.

"It would be really bad if Ayanokoji got Protection Points." Fearing that Ryuen might suddenly rise up and regain power in Class C, Manabe would rather kick Ryuen out of the class than Ayanokoji.

For the time being, she couldn't see any danger in Ayanokoji; at least compared to Ryuen, he wouldn't lay a hand on anyone.

"The person in charge of this Special Exam can only be Ayanokoji."

"As long as Ayanokoji is still in our class, Class A will keep targeting us."

"Winning is good for the class, but losing means we can kick him out of the class sooner rather than later. That's the best option for the class."

Without abusing her power, Shiina simply explained the pros and cons, guiding the students to vote for Ayanokoji.

After the bell rang to signal the end of the first class, the exam coordinators for each class were elected.

Class 1-A: Sakayanagi Arisu

Class 1-B: Ichinose Honami

Class 1-C: Ayanokoji Kiyotaka

Class 1-D: Maezono An

"I don't need to tell you which class to choose as the opponent, do I?" Aoyama calmly looked at the excited Sakayanagi.

After the phones were returned to the students after class, they retrieved their own phones and quickly learned who was in charge of the exams for the other classes.

Shiina's Class C and Karuizawa's Class D are still the easy targets, just like during the final exams.

However, the question of which easy target to choose doesn't exist for Class A.

"Of course." Sakayanagi's smile was undisguised. "Although it was an exam where the abilities were not evenly matched, there was nothing that could be done about it."

She was incredibly excited for her class to face off against Class C and have a showdown with Ayanokoji.

Unfortunately, Ayanokoji will definitely not choose Class A as his opponent.

The short break between classes passed quickly, and when the bell rang for the second period, Mashima walked into the classroom again.

"[Selection Exam] This is Special Exam that will be held in two weeks. Just like the final exam, each class will choose its own opponents. If there is a conflict, a draw will be held."

"First, you need to select ten items."

While explaining the rules, Mashima drew ten circles on the whiteboard with a red pen.

"The projects should be popular, not too niche. For example, written tests, shogi (Japanese chess), and running are popular projects. After selection, we need to think about them and formulate rules that the school deems reasonable."

"One week from now, the ten items you submitted will be officially communicated to the opposing team."

"Then, on the day of the exam a week later, the person in charge of the exam had to delete five of the items and report them to the school."

After drawing ten more circles with a black pen, Mashima crossed out five of the black circles and five of the red circles.

Then he drew a large circle, enclosing the five red and five black circles.

"After the formal exam begins, the school will randomly select seven items from the ten items provided by each class as the exam items."

I don't think I need to go into the definition of victory or defeat.

There are seven events, meaning the class that gets four wins first will be the winner.

"The person in charge of the exam, in this Special Exam, is also called the Commander."

"The command center's responsibility is to coordinate the selection of students participating in the project and to provide some assistance to students taking the exams."

Without anyone interrupting, Mashima quickly finished explaining the important rules of the Special Exam, giving the students a general understanding.

As with other exams, the rules for this Special Exam are explained in the accompanying documentation.

"Each item adds or subtracts thirty points, so seven items would amount to 210. Add to that the 100 points awarded by the school to the winner, and the highest possible prize is 310."

Totsuka immediately flipped to the rewards section and began to have wonderful fantasies.

If they can face Class C or Class D, given their strength, it wouldn't be unreasonable for them to get five or six wins.

[Each student can only participate in one project. A student can only participate a second time if all students have already participated in the exam project.]

As expected, you cannot participate repeatedly.

Unlike Totsuka's focus, Aoyama immediately identified the restrictions on participants.

Without this restriction, he could have easily dominated the game.

[A class can register for a maximum of two projects with more than ten people each.]

In that case, Ayanokoji will likely participate in two competitions.

As Aoyama continued reviewing the rules, he considered the strategies Ayanokoji might employ.

With only thirty-one people left in Class C, they can bring back their strongest players more quickly; having fewer people also has its advantages.

If Ayanokoji hadn't faced him, Ayanokoji could have secured two victories for his class.

Therefore, to compete against Ayanokoji, you must be among the top students in your class for the first two exams; otherwise, you'll be in trouble if someone steals your pass.

But the most important thing first and foremost is that Class A has to face off against Class C.

Chapter 295: Itchy Sakayanagi Arisu

"Cheating, blatant cheating."

"That bastard Tsukishiro, I'll make him pay one day."

The boys' dormitory at night.

Using the excuse of discussing the Special Exam in two weeks, Sakayanagi, who came to the Aoyama dormitory, remembered the lottery and gritted his teeth in hatred again.

To fight the strong over the weak is naturally not in line with Ayanokoji's basic principles.

He naturally ignored Sakayanagi's provocations and chose the weakest Class D, as his opponent.

The draw resulted in Ayanokoji's victory, though it wasn't a very honorable one.

"What, you're not convinced?" Looking at Sakayanagi's angry little face, Aoyama smiled teasingly.

Fortune's wheel keeps turning.

Sakayanagi, who had always been the one using his privileges, now found it all too funny that someone else was using them.

Sakayanagi slammed her cane on the floor in anger before sitting down on the cushion. "How could I possibly accept that? It was clearly cheating, and the way they cheated was so blatantly bad."

"They completely ignored me when I applied for a visa review."

The probability of drawing first or last is the same, so at Ayanokoji's insistence, Ichinose and Maezono both drew lots first, and neither of them was selected.

When it was her turn, there were two slips of paper left in the bamboo tube, with a one-in-half chance of drawing one.

When her expectations were dashed, Ayanokouji didn't even draw the last Ayanokoji, and the teacher announced that Class C had the right to choose first.

Clearly, the last one was also a bad result.

Aoyama scoffed, "Well, that's just how dark the adult world is."

It was obvious that Tsukishiro was taking sides, but he had already prepared himself for this, which was why he wasn't enthusiastic about taking on the role of exam coordinator.

No matter which class he plays against, he doesn't think he'll lose.

"We can't keep going on like this. Father probably won't be back anytime soon."

Faced with Tsukishiro's bullying of the weak, Sakayanagi couldn't think of any way to deal with it.

"It's not like we can't come back, it's just a matter of time. No rush." Aoyama held out his hand to Sakayanagi. "You brought everything I asked you to bring, right? Let me see what's going on."

After hearing that Sakayanagi was coming that evening, he asked Sakayanagi to bring him his recent medical records and physical examination data.

Medicine and pharmacology are inseparable. After acquiring Shiho Miyano's pharmacological knowledge, he was also able to determine whether Sakayanagi's physical condition was suitable for using the heart disease medication he had drawn.

Anyway, if I get one of the finished products, I can use it and then make some more based on Shiho Miyano's knowledge.

Since he had done Sakayanagi a favor by healing him, Sakayanagi Narimori would owe him a huge debt of gratitude.

"Why do you need these?" Sakayanagi took out the documents from his small bag and stared at Aoyama with a questioning look in his eyes.

"It's hard to say for sure in a short time, and it's not certain whether it will be useful."

After receiving Sakayanagi's medical records and physical examination data, Aoyama, finding the explanation troublesome, simply started reading without further explanation.

Is my heart's pumping function weaker than average? I also have some problems with my peripheral arteries.

He's still a teenager, but he has health problems that are usually associated with the elderly.

According to the information, he can take the heart medication Sakayanagi, but the extent to which it will improve his condition cannot be guaranteed.

"This is a highly effective medicine for treating heart disease; I estimate it will be beneficial for you." Out of Sakayanagi's sight, Aoyama 'pulled out' a capsule and handed it over.

As a special drug derived from the research process of APTX4869, this little thing truly deserves the purple reward.

Sakayanagi frowned slightly. "When did Shiki become a doctor? Besides, I know my own condition; I can only receive conservative treatment."

Her family is wealthy and powerful, and she has seen many top doctors since she was a child, but none of them could do anything about her health; they could only give her medication to control her condition and prevent it from worsening.

Her first thought was that she didn't want to take medicine with unclear efficacy or origin.

"Don't worry, it won't kill you."

"I have no intention of poisoning Chairman Sakayanagi's only daughter, and I don't want to sink into Tokyo Bay."

Aoyama didn't see anything wrong with Sakayanagi's resistance, nor did he feel angry that "I have good intentions, yet you hesitate."

After all, he could guess that Sakayanagi must have seen countless famous doctors by now, and his mindset had changed from anticipation to calm.

"If anything goes wrong, Shiki will have to take responsibility for me."

Seeing that Aoyama had no intention of taking it back, Sakayanagi thought for a moment, then took the pill from Aoyama's palm and playfully tickled it with his finger.

She believed that Aoyama was an Akito, and based on Aoyama past behavior, she believed that Aoyama would not harm her.
