All I can say is that the world has never been fair. Not only do everyone's family background, race, and country of origin differ, but even metaphysical concepts like luck and source power vary greatly in how they manifest in each person.
The reason why Aragaki Shun came to High School of Development was that he sensed that this place attracted the attention of the entire upper class of Sakurajima, and also gathered special talents with extraordinary luck from all over Sakurajima. At his current age, it was definitely an excellent place to obtain source power.
As expected, after he entered Advanced Development High School and completed his enrollment, a source of power was automatically added to his personal panel.
This means completing a small achievement. If you enroll in other high schools, you will probably not get this benefit.
But since the source power in the highly cultivated state is so abundant, how can he just stop at a taste and waste resources in vain?
He was so active in exploring the school rules in Class B in order to better expand his influence. After all, it is easier to influence the school by controlling a class than by being alone.
The control over Class B is a long-term plan. Now that he has some free time, Aragaki Shun plans to make some achievements in this new map first, so he naturally turns his attention to the many clubs in the school.
He is very familiar with this. No matter whether he is in elementary school or junior high school, as long as he thinks those skills are useful, he doesn't mind signing in and punching in at the corresponding club.
Kanzaki Ryuji and Shibata Sa didn't know what he was thinking, but when they saw that he was determined to do so, they thought that he was planning to explore school information through the club, so they followed him.
"I heard that the clubs at Gaoyu are all very well-rounded, and some even have outstanding members who have achieved excellent results in national high school competitions. Do you really want to challenge those clubs when you first enroll?"
Kanzaki collected some information about school clubs from the school forum and asked Aragaki Shun with some concern.
"Isn't that even better? If the school's clubs are really this good, it proves that the school is still good at cultivating talent. Even if they lose this time, it won't be a bad thing."
Aragaki Shun's goal is to obtain source power, and he doesn't care about winning or losing. It's not like he hasn't lost before when he was a child.
Besides, apart from having reached lv.4 in fighting and writing, which was only one step away from reaching lv.5, which represented the limit of mortal skills, he was confident that he was also among the top professional players. As for the other skills that were not singled out but were collectively classified as [Miscellaneous], he did not think that he was unbeatable.
But even so, with the strength of the four basic attributes, he didn't think he could easily encounter someone who could defeat him in these miscellaneous items among the 480 or so highly bred peers.
Kanzaki Ryuji saw that Aragaki Shun reached the club building without stopping, and it seemed that he really didn't care whether the challenge was successful or not. He could only helplessly pull Shibata Sa to follow him. They decided that if a conflict really happened later, the three of them would advance and retreat together so that they would not suffer any losses.
"You haven't told me what club you're going to challenge now?"
"Since we're challenging a club, we naturally have to challenge competitive clubs where the winner is clearly determined. However, we can postpone those time-consuming events for now. For the rest, we can just challenge wherever we go."
"Huh? Shouldn't it be about challenging yourself in the club activities that you're best at?"
Aragaki smiled without saying anything and strolled leisurely in the corridor of the club building. Within two minutes, he saw a club that interested him.
Table tennis, or table tennis, is more familiar to him.
Since there is such a club, I must join in and have some fun!
He decisively chose to walk into the billiard club's activity room and soon attracted the attention of the members in the room.
"Classmate, is there anything I can help you with? If you want to join a club, please wait until after tomorrow's club briefing." A student from the table tennis club came up and greeted.
"Let's not talk about joining the table tennis club for now. Seniors, can you let me see the strength of everyone in the table tennis club first? Oh, by the way, I'm a freshman who just enrolled. I heard that there are many hidden talents in the various clubs of Gaoyu, but I have my doubts."
"What do you mean, freshman?"
Hearing these unfriendly remarks, the table tennis club members, as seniors, felt offended by their juniors and glared at Aragaki Shun.
"Can't you understand?" Aragaki Shun still had that irritatingly calm demeanor. "Then be frank. I'm here to challenge you!"
Aragaki Shun took out his phone and displayed the 100,000 points he had borrowed from Kanzaki. "The school is really generous. They gave me so many points right after I enrolled. If I fail this competition, these 100,000 points will be my apology to the table tennis club. But if the seniors fail, please give me 100,000 points as well."
"Boy, you're so arrogant! You should know that these 100,000 points are your living expenses for this month. If you lose them all, you'll have to wait until the first of next month to get new points."
Hearing the commotion, other members of the billiards club also rushed over, and the club president gave a somewhat unhappy warning.
"It doesn't matter. See these two friends next to me? If I really lose, I'll borrow some points from them for living expenses. Anyway, the school will give out another 100,000 points next month."
After hearing what Aragaki Shun said, Kanzaki Ryuji and Shibata Sa, who were being watched by all the members of the table tennis club, felt a little embarrassed, but they could only step forward to show their support for him.
"...Very good, let me see what gives you the confidence to be so arrogant!"
After hearing Aragaki Shun say nonchalantly that the school would give out another 100,000 points next month, several members of the table tennis club showed subtle looks.
Having been in this school for a year or two, they naturally knew how the points were distributed every month. Seeing that this freshman was so naive, they subconsciously put aside the little importance they had given him.
As seniors in the second and third grades, they naturally had to teach a lesson to the freshmen who had just enrolled so rudely. Otherwise, if rumors spread that the table tennis club didn't even dare to accept the challenge of the freshmen, how would they recruit new members?
The funds approved by this school for the club are related to the number of members in the club. The previous graduates have just left, and if the club cannot recruit enough new students, the funds for future club activities will be greatly reduced.
"But to prevent you, the freshman, from losing and refusing to pay, I'll call the teacher over and we'll sign a contract with the school as a guarantor, okay?"
"Oh, how's the effect of this contract? I was planning to let the campus forum judge your abilities if the seniors didn't pay me later."
"Don't worry, the contract guaranteed by the school is mandatory. You're probably more worried about how many points you'll have to borrow to get through the month if you lose."
The members of the table tennis club showed contemptuous expressions and quickly called the instructor nearby to sign the mutual competition contract with Aragaki Shun.
Aragaki Shun handed the contract document to Kanzaki and casually walked to the side of the ping-pong table. He looked at the table tennis club members on the other side who were vying to teach him a lesson with interest. "Have you decided? Who of you wants to compete with me?"
Perhaps because the total number of students in the school is less than 500, the number of members required for a highly developed club is surprisingly low. It only needs three members to be established. The table tennis club still has five members after the previous graduates withdrew, which is not a small number.
"Let me do it!"
The table tennis club member who had greeted them at the beginning came out. He picked up the racket and stood opposite Aragaki Shun with a cruel expression of confidence of victory on his face.
He didn't think he would lose at all!
The scope of student selection for Koukou Yucheng High School is from all over Sakurajima. Students who are able to enter this school based on their special talents are definitely the best among their peers in their specialties.
What's more, after a year of training, he could clearly feel the difference between himself and when he first entered school.
How could I lose to a freshman who just enrolled!
"Kid, don't think you can do anything just because you achieved some success in junior high school!"
"Let me feel the cruelty of this world!"
6. Not enough skills? Add more power!
"The victory is decided!"
"What? I actually lost?"
The members of the table tennis club widened their eyes. They had just thought that although the opponent's skills were good, they were still inferior to theirs. So why did they suddenly lose?
"It seems that Senior's strength has reached its limit. Please transfer the 100,000 points to me."
Aragaki Shun happily took out his cell phone and shook it.
"The contract is enforced by the school. I certainly won't default on my obligation, but I want to play it with you again, and the stakes are still 100,000 points!"
The member of the billiard club turned the point over unwillingly, then picked up the racket and signaled to continue.
"Oh, Senior, do you still have a lot of points? Don't use up all the points for eating later."
"Don't worry, I can still get the 200,000 points!"
After all, they are third-year students. Since they realized the nature of school, most students have been forced to learn to accumulate points in daily life.
The school's clubs can not only apply for activity funds from the student union, but also receive rewards from the school after making achievements. Therefore, students in Class A who have special skills like him never lack points for daily consumption.
"Well then," Aragaki Shun stretched his arms and legs, realizing that these seniors seemed to be quite fat, "let's sign the contract again."
Another contract involving 100,000 points was signed under the teacher's witness.
The members of the billiards club exuded an imposing aura, their sharp eyes not missing any changes on the table, and they vowed to take back the points and face they had lost.
It just didn't take long.
Another defeat cast a shadow over the entire table tennis club.
"Impossible! I was almost winning, why did I lose all of a sudden?"
The members of the table tennis club felt puzzled. He had clearly used all his strength and had no intention of taking the opponent lightly. He had always had the upper hand in the early stages, but later on the opponent's attack suddenly became fierce and he was defeated in no time.
"you do this delibrately?"
"Senior, please don't blame me. I just haven't played this for a while, and I need some practice to get back into the swing of things."
Aragaki Shun turned the racket in his hand and shook his neck. He could feel that after two games, his body had quickly adjusted to adapt to table tennis.
He did not deceive his opponent. Although he had not used his full strength, he still reserved some strength and agility. As for table tennis skills, he was not an expert in this area. His strength was indeed not much better than that of the senior student on the opposite side. He was also a little rusty because he had not practiced for a long time.
However, he has a level 4 [Fighting] skill, which includes many self-defense techniques including wrestling, taekwondo, xingyiquan, and weapon fighting. His ability to control his body is far beyond that of ordinary people. Coupled with his physical fitness that is superior to most adult men, it is not difficult for him to get started with a certain sport.
On the other hand, after his mental attribute reaches 9, his calculation and memory abilities are extremely powerful.
Although this part of the attribute cannot be fully converted into learning ability, even if it is only an indirect blessing, it can allow him to easily get started with most skills in the world that can be acquired through hard work and practice.
There is too much knowledge in this world and it is too diverse. He does not have much energy to spend on those skills that are not needed in daily life. But if he just spends two days to memorize the corresponding rules and common sense, and then relies on his physical fitness and fighting skills to apply them to other areas, it will be no problem.
"Matsuhara, step back first!"
Just when the table tennis club member who lost the game was about to say something unwillingly, a serious voice stopped him.
The head of the table tennis club stepped forward and looked at Aragaki Shun with a somewhat shaken expression. "You were observing Matsubara's movements during the match, and then you learned all his skills. That's how you scored that last shot?"
"Not bad, and I also want to thank Senior Songyuan for his guidance."
"What?!!"
The table tennis club member who lost to Aragaki Shun, or as the club leader called him, Matsubara, widened his eyes. Learning during training and competition was normal, but to integrate the results of his year's training so easily, this kind of thing! This kind of thing...
Is this the difference between him and a true genius?
The head of the table tennis club also gave Aragaki Shun a deep look and said in a serious tone, "Would you like to join the table tennis club? I'm in Class A, Grade 3, and I'll be preparing for graduation soon. Then you'll be the new head of the table tennis club."
"Unfortunately, I'm not very interested in table tennis. I just play it occasionally."
Aragaki Shun shook his head, "But Buchou, do you want to play a game? If I lose, I can join in and train for a while."
"Is this the willfulness of a genius?" The head of the table tennis club sighed, but asked the teacher to draft another contract.
Whether it is to win back the face of the table tennis club or to suppress the arrogance of the younger generation and let him know that his favorite table tennis is not that easy, he must go down and play a game with Aragaki Shun.
Unfortunately--
【Name: Aragaki Shun
Strength: 7→8
Constitution: 7→8
Agility: 8→9
Spirit: 9 → 10
技能:格斗lv.4(2/5),写作lv.4(2/5),杂项
天赋:危险预兆lv.5(0/10),百毒不侵lv.5(0/10),百病不生lv.5(0/10)
To be condensed: Enlightenment lv.0 (0/?), Turning Misfortune into Fortune lv.0 (0/?)
Source Power: 14 → 10 (Current efficiency: 3 per month)
The clubs in Highly Cultivated High School are indeed full of hidden talents. If he uses his casual interest to touch the future path they have painstakingly studied, there is still a one or two percent chance that he will be defeated by the explosive force.
Although losing doesn’t matter much, it’s better to try your best to win if you can.
If he had to strengthen his table tennis skills specifically for such a game, Aragaki Shun would definitely not be willing to do so, but when he has enough source power, choosing to strengthen the four basic attributes is, after all, laying the foundation for the future.
If the four attributes did not complement each other, and the gap between the strongest and weakest attributes could not be too large, otherwise it would affect the coordination of the body, Aragaki Shun would have raised the mental attribute to above 10 long ago.
Just like the last time when his physical fitness was only 6, he raised his spirit to 9, which directly caused him to have headaches from time to time. He had to invest another source of power in his physical fitness to completely solve this problem.
Aragaki Shun enjoyed the feeling of his body becoming noticeably stronger. This was the absolute strength he was pursuing!
——As long as the foundation is strong enough, and the shortest board extending from it is enough to crush the longest point of others, then he has no shortcomings!
......
The result is obvious: those who work hard will never be able to beat those who cheat.
Aragaki Shun earned another 100,000 points, bringing the total to 300,000 points, which is almost a month's salary for an ordinary worker in Sakurajima.
These were only two of the players participating in the competition, and there were a total of five members in the billiards club.
If he had chosen to keep a low profile at the beginning, gradually demonstrated slightly higher strength, and constantly given them hope of winning in just one more game, he would definitely have been able to squeeze more money out of these fat sheep.
But forget it. I'm going to live here for three years anyway. We'll see each other every day, so I shouldn't be too extreme.
"Are you sure you don't want to join the billiard club?"
The minister took out his cell phone to transfer money to Aragaki Shun, but compared to the 100,000 points, he seemed more reluctant to let Aragaki Shun go.
"Last year, we participated in the National High School League and only came in third. This year, with you, we might actually win the championship. Then, both the competition prize money and the school's individual point bonuses can be given to you alone."
"Oh, it's normal for the school to give out awards after the club's results are released, but will this award help with class competition?"
"Class points aren't that easy... No, freshman?"
