In fact, I can add unlimited points

Seeing Hashimoto's increasingly desperate face, Aragaki Shun pondered for a moment and offered him a second option. "If you don't dare to offend Sakayanagi, then use your expulsion to kidnap Katsuragi. After all, according to this school's rules, if a student is expelled for violating school rules and regulations, their class will also be deducted 300 evaluation points."

"If you can persuade Katsuragi to give me 400 evaluation points per month, I can issue a letter of apology and give up pursuing your responsibility in this incident."

Even Kamuro Masumi was stunned when these words came out. "Our Class B only has 850 points. We were supposed to give you 200 points before, and now we're giving you 400 points. Doesn't that mean that from now on, each of us will only have 25,000 points per month?"

"Class B doesn't have to agree to this," said Aragaki Shun, who didn't care. "Just let Hashimoto be expelled, and then the class evaluation score will drop to 550 points. That way, each of you will still have 35,000 points left every month."

Is it to guarantee 300 class evaluation scores, or to guarantee 40 individual points per month?

In fact, no matter which one you choose to protect, Class B is basically half-wasted.

"By the way, remember to tell everyone in Class B that all this is the result of Sakayanagi Arisu's own cleverness!"

135. Ibuki Mio's Defeat; The Future of Class C is in Your Hands

Dealing with the issue of Hashimoto Masayoshi will force Class B to make a dilemma between a bad future and a worse one.

Then Aragaki Shun was pulled to the commercial street by Ibuki, and the girl skillfully opened a training room suitable for fighting.

"You know you can't beat me, but you still can't wait to get a beating. Ibuki, your hobby is really hard to praise."

The fight ended quickly. Ibuki Mio only gave a tentative kick, but was easily knocked to the ground by Aragaki Shun with his strength and speed advantage.

For a young man whose attributes have now reached the human limit, he does not need any skills and can defeat most fighters in the world with just basic qualities.

And the Ibuki Mio in front of him obviously hasn't stepped into that very small category.

Seeing that the blue-haired girl still looked unwilling to admit defeat and wanted to continue struggling after falling to the ground, he simply sat on Ibuki's lower back and yawned out of boredom.

"Stop making trouble!"

"If you want to challenge me, Ibuki, at least go through all the highly developed fighting clubs. Otherwise, you're just wasting my time."

"you......"

A look of humiliation appeared on Ibuki Mio's face, but her struggling stopped.

She lay on the ground with her hands folded in a dejected manner, resting her chin on her hands. She cursed in a dull voice, "God is truly unfair. There's such a huge gap between people. No matter how hard I try, I can't compare to you gifted people."

If Aragaki Shun had defeated her instantly with his fighting skills, Ibuki Mio would not have been so unwilling.

But the problem is that the opponent clearly didn't use any skills, and simply subdued her with faster speed and stronger strength. Faced with this kind of quality crushing that there was no way to solve, what could she do?

There is a physical gap between boys and girls, which is a fact that cannot be ignored.

But in the past she always believed that as long as she spent more energy on martial arts, there was no need to care about such insignificant things.

Thanks to long-term training, most boys in Class C are not as good as her in fighting. This reality is enough to prove that there is nothing wrong with her idea.

As a result, a monster among her peers, Shun Aragaki, appeared. His exaggerated physical fitness was a mockery of her ideas.

At least she racked her brains but couldn't figure out how she should train in the future to defeat this guy with martial arts.

"Don't be so depressed," Aragaki Shun wasn't good at comforting people, so he simply pointed out a fact without any modesty, "In this school, this country, and even the entire world, there are few people who can match my physical fitness."

"Even if you're belligerent, you should challenge the weaker ones gradually, working your way up to the stronger ones. Why would you set your sights on a world-class boss from the start?"

Ibuki Mio thought about it and felt that what Aragaki Shun said made some sense. A hopeful look appeared on her face. "You mean, as long as I keep working hard, I still have a chance to grow as strong as you?"

"...Maybe." Aragaki Shun didn't want to lie, so he could only give an ambiguous response, "This kind of thing should be decided by you yourself. How can an outsider like me interfere?"

"That's right," the blue-haired girl obviously believed him and regained her fighting spirit. "I must work harder. Only then can I not lose to anyone!"

Just then, Masumi Kamuro walked in from outside the training room with a few bottles of drinks in her hands. When she walked in front of the two of them, she looked at Aragaki Shun, who was sitting on Ibuki Mio's lower back, with a somewhat strange look.

The newly appointed Sakayanagi faction leader of Class B muttered a few words silently, but said nothing else. He simply handed over the drink in his hand.

"Thank you so much! You actually took the initiative to prepare these things. Kamuro, you're quite considerate, aren't you?"

Taking the drink with one hand, Aragaki Shun patted Ibuki's butt with his other hand, indicating that the competition was over and she should stop touching him. Then the boy released his restraint on the girl, stood up and started to drink water in big gulps.

I have to admit that Kamuro is quite considerate as a tool. No wonder Arisu Sakayanagi specifically captured her to be his crutch.

I just have a question - is this guy a bit of a masochist?

After all, didn’t Kamuro say that he stopped looking for excitement after he was caught stealing?

Then what was the reason that Arisu Sakayanagi used to capture her and use her as a tool?

The purple-haired girl suddenly felt a chill, but after looking around, she only saw Ibuki Mio crawling up from the ground, and there was nothing else suspicious around.

"Maybe it's an illusion..."

Thinking of this, Kamuro let go of the strange feeling in her heart as if her personality was being slandered, and instead looked at Ibuki Mio with an inexplicable gaze as he took a bottle of drink from her hand naturally.

By the way, you just had Shun Aragaki sit on your lower back and he patted your buttocks, so why didn’t you react at all?

"Why are you looking at me so strangely?" Feeling Kamuro Masumi's strange gaze, Ibuki Mio frowned at first, then as if remembering something, she quickly added, "Don't worry, I'll return the money for the drink. Although our Class C doesn't have many points, we won't take advantage of you."

"No~ Never mind, let's just leave it at that."

I didn't expect Ibuki to be so perverse. Kamuro instinctively wanted to explain, but gave up before the words came to his lips.

No matter how you look at it, she doesn't have the personality of a normal girl. What if she doesn't care about this at all?

Her talking too much here seems to have no other meaning except making the originally harmonious atmosphere awkward.

Without caring about Masumi Kamuro's inner thoughts, Ibuki Mio finished a bottle of drink and went to the sandbag in the corner of the training room. She circled around it and performed various punching and kicking moves, as if she wanted to vent all the resentment of being defeated by Shun Aragaki in one move.

Aragaki Shun looked at the time and found that there was nothing to do for the time being, so he leisurely walked to another sandbag and tried a few punches on it from light to heavy.

Then he discovered that the quality of the sandbag seemed to be a little too average. He hadn't even used one-third of his strength, but the thing was about to break.

Ibuki Mio, who had walked over at some point, twitched her lips slightly. She walked forward and touched the broken prop with her own hands, and her face gradually became very distorted.

"Are you a professional boxer who came here from somewhere?"

"Normally speaking, most professional boxers wouldn't be able to beat me if we just talk about strength."

Aragaki Shun smiled. His statement was not conceited at all, but rather a bit too humble.

"It looks like this training room doesn't have the right equipment for me to warm up. I'll be leaving now. Ibuki, remember to come to the student union on time from now on."

"and many more!"

Ibuki Mio hurriedly called out to Shun Aragaki, who was about to leave. Under the boy's puzzled gaze, the girl frowned and thought for a while before asking, "I know you're stronger than Ryuuen, Aragaki. Now every first-year class has your influence. It's basically impossible for us, Class C, to get promoted to Class A. So, can you tell me what the future holds for Class C?"

A smile flashed in Aragaki Shun's eyes. "I didn't expect that you, Ibuki, have such a strong sense of collective honor. You don't have a good relationship with most people in the class, yet you still ask me this question."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Ibuki Mio's face flushed instantly, like a delicate flower enveloped in flames. She bit her lower lip slightly, with a hint of shame and anger in her eyes. "I just don't want those people in the class to rot completely."

"I originally thought that Ryuen had a chance to lead us forward, but who could have imagined that a freak like you would appear among the first graders."

Having said that, Ibuki Mio's mood inevitably became depressed.

She hated failure, and as long as she could see a glimmer of hope, she would never bow to the biggest enemy of Class C.

But is there really hope?

Ibuki Mio knows that she is not very smart, so even though she dislikes Ryuen Sho's violent rule, she will still obediently follow the instructions of the class leader unless she can come up with a better solution.

But no matter how clumsy she was, the situation in the first grade had developed to this point. She was not blind, so how could she not see that the probability of Class C, led by Ryuen Sho, defeating Class A was extremely small.

In this situation, with no hope in sight, what's the point for everyone in the class to continue enduring Ryuen's violent rule?

The blue-haired girl was lost, so instinctively, she began to seek guidance from those who she considered stronger and wiser.

"If I were to give you some advice, instead of thinking about getting promoted to Class A, the students in Class C should spend more energy correcting their shortcomings and then strengthening their foundation in all aspects."

"To put it bluntly, given the quality of your class C, even if you were lucky enough to be promoted to class A one day, what would happen?"

"The school can kick you out immediately by simply arranging a special exam to improve your grades!"

In response to Ibuki Mio's question, Aragaki Shun was not polite at all and simply pointed out the biggest problems of the two lower-ranked classes, Class C and Class D.

"Future Class A graduates will undoubtedly be recruited into prestigious universities and companies, attracting significant attention from all walks of life."

"Under these circumstances, do you think the delinquents in Class C can handle this level of expectations?"

Ibuki Mio's pupils shrank. Even though what Aragaki Shun said was unpleasant, she couldn't refute his argument.

No one knew better than her how bad the overall atmosphere in Class C was.

It was really just a gang of bad guys and hot girls.

If this group of hooligans were recommended by the school and became the talent exported by High School of Development... that scene would be too beautiful to even imagine.

"Does that mean Class C has no hope from the beginning?"

"That's not the case!" Aragaki Shun rejected Ibuki Mio's statement. "No matter how special High School is, it's still a school. Its main job is to teach and educate. If Class C and Class D can become better than Class A, the school will definitely be happy to fulfill all its promises."

It's a simple logic. If Class A leads from the beginning to the end, it only means that the other three classes have not grown at all, which will make people question the educational strength of Koukou Yucheng High School.

And if Class D, which was originally the worst, could rise to the top step by step in three years of competition and finally firmly secure its position as Class A, with no other faults to be found, the school could also boast to the outside world about its ability to turn stubborn stones into precious stones.

"But the premise is that the lower-ranked classes must truly rely on their own strength to advance, rather than relying solely on luck or unorthodox methods."

"In other words, you must first become a highly-cultivated and recognized talent before you are eligible to pursue Class A. It doesn't mean that once you are promoted to Class A, the school will recognize you."

"...Is this kind of thing really possible?"

Ibuki Mio was a little dumbfounded.

Most of the delinquents in Class C are aware of their own abilities, so they pin everything on Ryuuen, hoping that he can be brought to Class A by the boss.

But now you tell me that I still have to rely on myself.

If they really had that ability, why would they be assigned to Class C?

“There’s still a chance…”

Aragaki Shun thought about it for a moment. If he had been assigned to Class D at the beginning, he would probably have chosen a different strategy.

That is, on the one hand, they try every means to introduce outstanding talents from other classes, and on the other hand, they use the last-in-first-out system to expel those hopeless guys in their own class... This continues for three years, and the students who can still stay are definitely talents that meet the school's expectations.

"Is there really a chance?"

"Yes! But you definitely can't do it!"

Ibuki Mio: “…”

Then why are you telling me this?

"Of course, I want you to go back and guide the students in Class C onto the right path."

Aragaki Shun said as a matter of course, "This school offers free tuition, living expenses, top-notch educational resources, and even provides every student with a private dormitory. In that case, does graduating from Class A really matter?"

"Even if you can't graduate from Class A, you can still go on to higher education and find employment like ordinary high school students in the outside world. Compared to the cost of three years of hard study in the outside world, spending three years in Advanced Training is still a huge profit, even if you don't get a recommendation."

"Ah~" Ibuki Mio had never thought of considering it from this perspective, but after thinking about it carefully, there was indeed nothing wrong with it. "So, the most important thing for everyone in Class C to do now is actually to study and exercise normally?"

"if not?"

Aragaki Shun sneered and asked, "Or do you think that following Ryuen's instructions and harassing students from other classes every day, preventing the entire first grade from growing normally, will be beneficial to your Class C?"

——Since I don’t want to make progress, then I’ll pull my opponent down and let’s compete to see who’s worse.

If you only care about the ranking in class competition, then there is nothing wrong with this approach.

But the same thing goes, as long as Class C does not make up for its shortcomings, it will not be able to develop highly skilled talents for export.

"Come on, Ibuki. The future of Class C doesn't lie with Ryuuen, but in your hands."

136. The Chairman's Arrangement; Arisu Sakayanagi Suspended from School

In the evening, just after finishing dinner and coming out of the cafeteria, Aragaki Shun received a call from Director Kanda.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries on the phone, the boy bluntly asked his doubts:

"...So the council has already decided how to handle this incident? Isn't that a bit too efficient?"

"Hahaha~ That's a little different from what Shun-kun suspected. The reason it was so quick this time was actually because Sakayanagi took the initiative to propose a solution. Our board of directors discussed it and agreed that it was feasible, so we passed it."

"Oh~" Aragaki Shun paused in his slow pace, his thoughts turning as he immediately understood, "The chairman had already anticipated the consequences of this rumor-mongering incident and was even prepared to clean up the mess for Sakayanagi?"

"That sounds a bit far-fetched. So, it was the chairman who revealed my information on his own initiative, and he deliberately led Sakayanagi Arisu to provoke me?"

"That's not the case!" Director Kanda denied Aragaki Shun's speculation. "That Sakayanagi probably just gave her precious daughter some basic information about you. After realizing she had a crush on you, he simply let her go without stopping her."

“Nothing is stopping…”

Aragaki Shun's tone was a little subtle. "With the chairman's experience, it's impossible that he doesn't know how much of an impact this will have on him, right?"

"If he can't stop this, then what exactly is he planning?"
