Self-Introduction

Class 1-D

Why? Why was I placed in Class D! With the knowledge I retained from my first year of college in my past life, I'd basically mastered high school material—my academic evaluation should be at least an A!

Could it be because I spent my middle school days getting into fights with delinquents? That was for martial arts practice! I've already shown my physical ability is top-notch too! That should be a plus, right?

Right, among the talents I drew was [Martial Arts Talent] Qiuyue Qi, who learned martial arts from movies, systematically studied Jeet Kune Do, and self-taught judo.

But what Qiuyue Qi didn't know was the real reason he got placed in Class D...

In elementary school, he thought kids were too childish to bother playing with. In middle school, he learned about the Advanced Nurturing High School and regularly sought out delinquents to practice his martial arts talent, beating them senseless until everyone avoided him like the plague. As a result, his evaluation was marked with the flaws of violent tendencies and social isolation, and he was dumped into Class D.

Ah, forget it. Take things as they come. No matter what, first earn 20 million points.

Qiuyue Qi thought to himself.

He then found his seat and sat down, one spot ahead of Yamauchi.

In his seat, Qiuyue Qi furiously analyzed the plan he'd made earlier. At the very start, in a certain sense, it was the easiest time to earn points.

While Qiuyue Qi was still analyzing, a woman in a suit walked in.

It was clear she was very young, probably no older than 30.

She had her hair tied in a high ponytail, neat and sharp, and she was undeniably beautiful.

"First, let me introduce myself. Chabashira Sae. I usually teach Japanese history, and I'm the homeroom teacher for Class 1-D.

This school doesn't change classrooms for three years, so there's no need for class reassignments. You'll be classmates for three years, and I'll be your homeroom teacher for three years. Nice to meet you all."

"Also, the entrance ceremony will be held in the gymnasium tomorrow at 10 a.m.

Pass these forward. This is a document on the school's special rules. It should have been given to you during the earlier orientation.

In case some of you didn't read it, I'm handing it out again and explaining it once more.

This school has a special rule. First, it's a boarding system. All students attending this school must live in the on-campus dormitories. Additionally, during the three years of enrollment, all contact with the outside world and leaving the school grounds are prohibited.

But don't worry. The school has various facilities set up on campus.

All daily necessities are available, and of course, there are entertainment options. If you can think of it, the school has it."

"For shopping, the school should have given you a phone. Use the points on the student terminal app—there's a private account on there.

You can buy items at the supermarket and various other places, but it will consume your account points. So be sure to keep an eye on your private account balance.

Also, remember this: as long as you're on school grounds, there's nothing you can't buy with points.

In other words, anything available within the school premises can be purchased.

It's not much different from a regular phone. I shouldn't need to teach you how to use it—you're all high school students. If anyone doesn't know how, you can come to the office after class.

Finally, the school uses points. Points are like yen—one point equals one yen. Got it?

As for points, they're automatically deposited on the first of every month. Your private accounts should already have this month's 100,000 points deposited. Check the info on your phones. Anything else to say?"

Qiuyue: (...Saying all that in one breath, Teacher Chabashira, aren't your throat dry?)

The classroom instantly became noisy.

"100,000!?"

"No way?! 100,000! Every month! We're rich, we're rich, hahaha!"

Qiuyue, sitting in front, clearly heard Yamauchi's voice and sighed inwardly. If he didn't know the plot, maybe he'd be acting the same way.

In the Class D classroom, the students were still immersed in the temptation of the massive points. Teacher Chabashira's gaze gradually turned disappointed.

"If no one has any questions, have a pleasant school life."

Teacher Chabashira dropped that line and left.

Ah... According to the plot, Hirata should be stepping up next to suggest everyone introduce themselves. Why hasn't he stood up yet?

"Everyone, can I have a moment?"

All eyes turned to the student raising his hand. He exuded a sunny, cheerful aura, and with his handsome face, most of the students already felt positively toward him.

Finally here. Been waiting a while. I'll do a self-introduction that doesn't draw attention, blend in like everyone else, and get through this part of the plot.

"As the teacher just said, we'll be classmates for the next three years. So, how about we all introduce ourselves? That way, we can get to know each other quickly."

"I agree."

One person took the lead and said so. Qiuyue glanced sideways—yeah, it was some extra whose name he couldn't remember.

"That sounds good."

"Yeah, we don't even know what to call each other yet."

After the first agreement, others chimed in one after another.

"Thanks. Then I'll start.

I'm Hirata Yosuke. Feel free to call me Yosuke. I like all sports and plan to join the school's soccer club. Everyone, nice to meet you."

Following Hirata, a girl immediately stepped up to introduce herself.

"Then I guess I'm next."

"I'm Kushida Kikyo. My goal is to be friends with everyone here. I want to create all kinds of memories with all of you, so please don't hold back—feel free to invite me anytime."

The girl's self-introduction won the favor of most of the boys in the class.

One by one, the introductions continued, until finally it was Qiuyue's turn.

"My name is Qiuyue Qi. I have a wide range of interests. If I had to narrow it down, I'd say reading novels, watching anime, and listening to music. As for what I'm good at, it's probably studying."

Mm, that's fine, shouldn't be a problem. Besides, with the intensity of high school in the Zhonghua Family from his past life, how could he not be good at studying?

Bang—

"What kind of self-introduction is that? You think we're little kids? Just let whoever wants to talk talk."
