Morishita Ai Pouts / An Underclassman's Invitation

"You're so generous, senior."

With a similarly confident expression, Amasawa Ichika eagerly pulled Aoyama along and started walking again.

Chapter 335 Flat-Mouthed Morishita Ran

It was late at night.

"Uninhabited Island Exam, Shiki, who do you plan to team up with?"

Wearing only a single layer of clothing, Sakura sat on the edge of the bed, took the water glass that Sakura handed Aoyama, and took a sip.

She definitely needs to replenish her fluids after strenuous exercise.

"It's not confirmed yet; it depends on Morishita's arrangements."

Going behind Sakura, Aoyama hugged her from behind and rested his head on her shoulder.

"Even if we're not in the same group, we can still take the exam together. Airi, if you want, you can meet me when the exam starts."

"Gaga must be on your team now. Who are you planning to team up with for the third spot in your group?"

Having more people is an advantage; this is something Mashima explicitly stated.

If a team of three can be formed, then naturally a team of three should be formed.

"It's not decided yet. Gaga originally wanted to invite Kushida, but Kushida has already been invited."

"Oh, who was so quick?"

"It's Inokashira, who sits in front of her, and the other group member is Wang Meiyu."

Inokashira Kokoro and Wang Meiyu two people: one is bad at both studying and physical abilities, while the other is good only at studying.

What they have in common is that they both have gentle personalities; they're the type who would agree with anything Kushida says.

"Airi, I want it again."

After chatting and cuddling for a while, Aoyama gently stroked Sakura's warm cheek.

After finishing his crazy fun with Amasawa Ichika at the Keyaki Mall, he immediately went to Sakura's room and played with Sakura's twin tails for a long time.

"Um."

Sakura spoke softly, turning her head as she felt the pressure on her face.

Throughout the night, the glass placed on the bedside table was filled with water and then emptied several times.

"Our class doesn't have a single one of the three special cards. This must be Aoyama Shiki's fault."

In the classroom of Class 2-A before class in the morning, Morishita went to complain to Aoyama.

The exam on the Uninhabited Island involved a set of prop cards, which every student received this morning.

There are a total of eight types of item cards: five basic cards in multiples, and three special cards that are only available in one copy each. Following the principle that rarity increases value, the three special cards are much more powerful than the basic cards.

Obtaining special cards is entirely based on luck, and there's even a chance that you'll end up with cards from the same class.

Lead Card: At the start of the exam, the number of points available becomes 1.5 times.

Additional Card: The holder's personal points rewards are doubled.

Halving Card: Reduces the personal points paid out when a penalty is imposed by half.

Rideshare Card: Receive an additional half of the individual points awarded to the designated group at the start of the exam.

Insurance card: If a candidate is disqualified due to illness during an exam, the holder will receive a one-day recovery period.

"How can you blame me? Even the richest family is short of food." Aoyama slapped away Morishita's outstretched, delicate hand. "I only suggest you buy some invalid cards just in case."

Recruitment: Students with this card can exist as the seventh student in the group, taking effect after the exam begins, and are not affected by the male-female ratio.

Invalid: The personal points paid during the penalty will become zero, and will only be reflected on the cardholder student.

Trial: Gain the right to have the points reward for Special Exam Class Points multiplied by 1.5.

Students who have invalid cards can drop their group to the bottom five and take the place of another student in the bottom five simply by wasting points on purchasing supplies.

If students from all three grades agree that one student from each grade should slack off, there will be two spots left for expulsion.

If there are no reward Class Points, and the points are deducted from the grades of the bottom three classes, it wouldn't be difficult to do this.

"The Trial Card is with Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, the invalidation card is with Yamada Albert, and the Reinforcement Card was initially with Wang Meiyu, but has now been transferred to Hirata Yosuke."

"Judging from the situation, I estimate we won't be able to buy even one," Morishita calmly stated the information he knew.

On OAA, you can see what cards all students hold, but transactions are only allowed within the same grade. It's impossible for a class to buy three Trial Cards, sweep the top three spots, and instantly gain 900 Class Points.

Aoyama was speechless. "Then why are you holding out your hand? I thought you were going to ask to borrow money again."

"Because it's fun."

He raised his hand and made a peace sign next to the purple eyes, Morishita face showing only a barely perceptible smile.

In the year or so they spent together, Aoyama never saw Morishita's expression change much; when he successfully tricked someone, he would only give a faint smile.

"Hashimoto Masayoshi reported that the leaders of the other three classes left the coffee shop together last night, chatting and laughing. It seems the three classes are planning to cooperate this time."

After calmly acting cute, Morishita next to him against the wall, tilted her head back, and continued talking.

It's like doing something shady.

Turning to the side, Aoyama looked Morishita.

"It's not an estimate, it's a certainty."

"As far as I know, Kikyo has already found students to team up with, namely Wang Meiyu and Inokashira Kokoro."

To win first place in the group, it is essential to form an elite six-person team, and more than half of the team members must be girls, meaning at least four girls.

Among the girls in Second-Year Class D, Kushida ranked second in overall strength, but Horikita did not keep her in the group of six.

"That's terrible! Class 1-A and Class B are mixed up, and third-year Classes BCD are forming an elite team too."

"A top-three finish is probably out of the question, unless..."

A group of six elites assembled from just one class can hardly compare to the best of the best selected from several other classes.

At this point, only a superhero capable of doing the work of several superheroes can step in and save Class 2-A.

"There's no unless. They just borrowed millions of personal points from me yesterday, and today they're thinking of having it all."

"Looks like I've spoiled you too much."

Aoyama raised his arm, intending to lightly tap Morishita's head and warn her not to be too greedy.

"I was prepared to watch you disarm me with your bare hands!"

Plans in place!

Lowering his voice and letting out a soft shout, Morishita suddenly raised his hands and slapped them above his head.

Before she even uttered those words, she had already anticipated that Aoyama would make a move; everything was part of her plan.

The next second, she was none other than the incredibly fierce General Morishita, who single-handedly took on the Student Council President's blade.

"It worked??"

Feeling that his hands hadn't touched anything, but without any pain in his head, Morishita opened his closed eyes and looked up.

What came into view was a forearm Aoyama that her hand was barely visible.

"I regret to inform you that the result was a failure." Having abruptly broken free from the small hand grasp and then abruptly stopped, Aoyama delivered a blow to Morishita, whose eyes were now open and filled with suspicion.

With his fine purple hair pressed down, his hand remained quietly resting beneath his clasped hands.

"Got you!" After slowly moving his tightly clasped hands downwards, Morishita suddenly accelerated and pressed down.

She refused to believe that her quick and slow blade strike would fail.

Uh, it seems we really failed.

Morishita slapped his head hard and pouted.

Chapter 336 Junior's Invitation

We need help from our seniors.

In late June, after the Student Council finished their work and disbanded, Aoyama was called to a private room in a coffee shop by Tsubaki Sakurako and Nanase Tsubasa, who claimed they needed help.

With Utsunomiya Riku waiting there beforehand, the four of them sat facing each other at a four-person table.

"We'd like to hear advice from our seniors."

With her hands on her knees and sitting upright, Nanase looked up at Aoyama directly opposite her.

Just now, she explained why she wanted to find Aoyama, hoping to get a solution from Aoyama.

Class 1-A and Class 1-B got mixed up shortly after the start of the semester, seemingly determined to join forces to completely crush the lower-ranked Classes Class C and Class D before engaging in one-on-one battles.

They were already outmatched in strength, and to make matters worse, Hosen Kazuomi, the leaders of Class 1-D, went crazy and insisted on obtaining the invalid card from Class C agreeing to form an alliance with them.

But Class C is an alliance, not a submission, so why would they give up their precious invalid cards?

If failing the Special Exam only resulted in a loss of Class Points, Tsubaki Sakurako and Utomiya would have Hosen long ago. But this time, the bottom five in the Special Exam would be expelled.

Compared to the older students who have experienced survival on Uninhabited Island and are also older and have higher overall strength, the first-year students are already at a disadvantage.

Although the school will make some adjustments to compensate for the disadvantages of first grade, it is unlikely to be significant.

It's not surprising that a group from a lower-ranked class, which was competing alone, ended up in the bottom five.

"What advice is there to give? It seems Hosen is just bluffing," Aoyama said confidently. "He messed up this Special Exam, causing many to drop out. His position as class leader is completely ruined."

At the age of sixteen, he had been a delinquent leader in junior high school for a long time, and even frequently went to other schools to fight for Hosen. He had an extremely strong sense of self-esteem.

That day, he slapped Hosen's face so hard it was swollen. Hosen hadn't even retaliated yet, so how could he possibly mess things up and lose his position as class leader?

Furthermore, according to the information obtained by Kushida, Hosen once confronted Ryuen in front of the teaching building. Judging from their conversation, the two knew each other well and wanted to prove who was stronger.

"However, it's also possible that Class A and Class B have secretly recruited Hosen, but they're just keeping it from Nanase."

"Maybe once we get our hands on the invalid cards from Tsubaki Sakurako's class, Hosen will stop pretending."

Something unusual must be going on. Considering Hosen's lawless personality, Aoyama couldn't be 100% sure.

"In short, you absolutely cannot give out the expulsion penalty invalidation card to Tsubaki Sakurako Sakura's class." As Utomiya's face darkened, Aoyama continued, "To be on the safe side, you should prepare at least two expulsion groups."

"A group of one person holding an invalid card, and a group of three students, each holding two million."

"Of course, each student holding Halving Card only needs one million."

When Class 1-C was betrayed and isolated by Class D, preserving the students in the class was the first priority; the top three were out of the question.

"My intention is absolutely to cooperate with you, Tsubaki Sakurako," Nanase said firmly. "I'll go and confirm what you mentioned right now."

She acted swiftly and decisively; the moment she finished speaking, she stood up before the three men from Aoyama's eyes and disappeared from the private room in no time.

"If your guess is true, could you lend our class one million?" After thinking for a moment, Tsubaki Sakurako looked at Aoyama with her expressionless face.

The living expenses distributed by the school in July were all misappropriated. If another million were added, Class C could form three groups of students who would drop out.

Even if targeted by three classes together, Class C will have enough resources to prevent any students from dropping out.

"Sure, and you can also talk to Arisu about cooperation." Thinking it might be convenient, Aoyama also wanted to get some help for his class. "She's the commander of the springs Uninhabited Island Exam; sharing intelligence will benefit both classes."

With more than two weeks until the exam, Morishita Uninhabited Island, even though he wasn't particularly interested.

Sakayanagi, who had the lowest physical abilities in her grade, was naturally chosen as a member of the dropout group and took on the role of the spring commander.

Class A, with 43 members, will be divided into more than ten groups. Each group will be equipped with a walkie-talkie to transmit any information they encounter to Sakayanagi remains at the spring.

Sakayanagi will give instructions to the students in the class based on the information he has.

With an additional Class 1-C, Sakayanagi's decisions will be more accurate.

"It seems that Sakayanagi- senpai is also one of the dropouts." Upon logging into the OAA software, Tsubaki Sakurako discovered that the item card Sakayanagi Arisu was Halving Card that exempted her from half of the expulsion penalty fine.

"After all, our class is being besieged by three other classes, so we can't afford not to prepare for the worst," Aoyama replied with a smile.

Think of defeat before you think of victory.

This is Morishita's way of thinking. In this Class 2-A's Uninhabited Island Exam, not only were two dropouts prepared, but two physically weak students were also assigned to Aoyama.

However, in order to compete for the top three, Class 2-A still prepared an elite group.
