In practice, I originally just wanted to be a slacker.

How could Baoquan, who looks so bad, have a B+ in academic ability?

You really can't judge a book by its cover.

"Junior, you've been standing here staring at me for more than three seconds. Can I assume you're here to see me?"

"Yeah, I'm here to see what makes Kamio-senpai, the only student in the whole school whose overall ability is rated as Grade 1, so amazing."

Baoquan immediately admitted his purpose, and then let out a sneer.

"The result doesn't seem to be a big deal."

You arrogant fool, no wonder you're in Class D.

"Really? I'm quite interested in junior Baoquan. He's already dominated Class D in just one week since the start of the semester. He's got some skills."

Faced with his junior's provocation, Kamio Tatsuya was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and praised Hosen.

However, after hearing Tatsuya Kamio's praise, both Hosen and Nanase's expressions changed.

The unification of Class D is actually something that happened today; it was a decision made by Baoquan on short notice after the results of the behavioral and moral exam were announced.

Even first graders don't know much about this.

However, Tatsuya Kamio in front of him saw through it at a glance. Hosen didn't remember any students from other grades appearing in the first-year area.

"Kamio-senpai, how did you find out about this?"

The question wasn't asked by Baoquan, who looked unwell, but by Nanase, who was traveling with him.

"Isn't that simple?" Tatsuya Kamio smiled knowingly. "Because there are only the two of you students in Class 1-D in this gymnasium."

Besides, I know better than you do what kind of people the students in Class D are.”

Kamio Tatsu did not explain the reasons, but he had already pointed out the general direction.

Normally, if a great person like Ichinose is willing to share information for free, those idiots in Class D would definitely flock to him.

But now only Baoquan and Nanase have arrived, which can only mean that someone is stopping them.

Moreover, the person who can stop those idiots in Class D is obviously no ordinary person; they must be a formidable character.

Given last year's situation, if even a popular figure like Hirata couldn't accomplish something, who else could?

That's right, like Longyuan, guys who use violence as a weapon.

Of the two who came, Takarazumi clearly fits this characteristic, and Nanase is obviously centered around Takarazumi, so it goes without saying who rules Class D.

Having his identity revealed so suddenly, Hosen Kazutomi stared at Kamio Tatsuya with a fierce look.

"As expected of the only guy in the whole school with a comprehensive ability level, Kamio-senpai is really amazing."

I get annoyed just thinking about Kamio Tatsu; that bastard Nagumo!

"So, junior, do you have any advice for me? As a senior who has worked hard here for an extra year, I don't mind giving you some pointers."

Tatsuya Kamio looked at Hosen Kazutomi and spoke calmly, then tugged at Kamuro with one hand, signaling her to step back.

Since Nagumo took over, he has repeatedly emphasized ignoring small-scale brawls.

Despite not being afraid of this obviously delinquent, Kamio Tatsuya had to prevent Kamuro from being implicated.

"Then I really want to ask you for some pointers. Was that protest letter posted on the school forum written by you?"

“Yes,” Tatsuya Kamio said casually. “I did this so that the younger students could also feel the warmth of this school. There’s no need to thank me; I was just doing what a senior should do.”

Who asked you to help us experience the enthusiasm of this school!

This is the thought in the minds of a large portion of first-year students; they really don't want the punishment to turn into expulsion.

Seeing that Hosen's anger was clearly rising, Kamio Tatsuya stood casually, but was always on guard against Hosen suddenly attacking him.

If the other party dares to make a move, Tatsuya Kamio will teach him a lesson today.

To Tatsuya Kamio's surprise, Hosen did not attack recklessly as expected. Instead, he gave Nanase a wink.

"Kamio-senpai, could you please withdraw that letter of protest?"

"I reject."

Tatsuya Kamio refused without even thinking about it.

"Aren't you going to listen to our terms?"

"Heh, the conditions I want are already written in the protest letter. I don't need you to come up with any additional conditions." Kamio Tatsuya remained unmoved.

At the same time, he lowered his head and gave Nanase Tsubasa a meaningful look.

This guy is deliberately trying to provoke the first-years, but it's okay, neither Kamio Tatsuya nor Ryuen intend to get along with the first-years.

So let these first-year students do whatever they want.

"Alright, Nanase, your method won't work. You'll have to watch my method."

Baoquan stood in front of Kamio Tatsuya again, less than a meter apart, and both were within each other's attack range.

"Hehe, is junior Baoquan planning to beat me up?"

Seeing Baoquan's expression, Kamio Tatsuya deliberately provoked him.

To be honest, if it were before, Kamio Tatsuya would never have gotten so close to Hosen.

Although he reacted quickly enough to dodge the opponent's attacks, he didn't think he could beat Baoquan.

Just by looking at their physique, you can tell that the opponent must have a very high strength attribute and be very resistant to blows.

But things are different now.

Kamio Tatsuya still clearly remembers the excruciating pain he felt three days ago.

In March, Tatsuya Kamio's cumulative number of system attempts reached three, and in April, due to the end of the school year, the system's reward was upgraded to another level.

Adding to the rewards he had accumulated, Tatsuya Kamio pulled out something really powerful.

Its name is the force of balance.

After use, it can make up for Tatsuya Kamio's weaknesses. Depending on the choice, it can make two of the three attributes—strength, agility, and stamina—equal to the other.

Currently, Tatsuya Kamio has 4 points in Strength, 7 points in Agility, and 4 points in Stamina.

When he drew this item, he was wondering if he should wait a little longer, in case the item next month was even stronger.

Until he heard something from Ayanokouji.

Last week, Ayanokouji and Tsukishiro had a skirmish, but in reality, it was just Ayanokouji taking the beating.

Tsukishiro skillfully blocked the camera's view and unilaterally assaulted Ayanokouji.

This served as a wake-up call for Tatsuya Kamio.

So, Tatsuya Kamio directly obtained the item and consumed it without hesitation.

With a strength and stamina of up to three points, Tatsuya Kamio's body underwent an unprecedented transformation, to the point that even he himself was unaware of just how strong he had become.

The only downside is that this thing doesn't actually increase intelligence, which is a big disappointment!

After his promotion, Tatsuya Kamio really wanted to try his luck with Ayanokouji, but he never had the chance.

Well, Hosen-kun offered himself up, and Kamio Tatsuya naturally wanted to give it a try.

"You two should get along well, fighting is not allowed."

Just as the atmosphere on the scene was tense, Ichinose's gentle voice rang out from the side. Not only that, she also forcefully inserted herself between Kamio Tatsuya and Hosen.

Very well, they can't fight anymore.

"Don't worry, Ichinose. I am the student council president, how could I do something like beating up a junior?"

Kamio Tatsuya made his stance clear first, while Hosen remained silent.

"Hmph, Nanase, let's go."

After watching Baoquan leave, Ichinose breathed a sigh of relief, but a worried expression appeared on his face.

"Kamio-kun, are you alright?"

Before Kamio Tatsuya could speak, she looked at Kamuro.

"Kamuro-kun, why didn't you stop Kamio-kun? What if they started fighting?"

Kamuro never expected that he would be caught in the crossfire here.

However, Ichinose clearly cared about Tatsuya Kamio, so she had no choice but to listen to Ichinose's lecture.

Chapter 299 Dragon Garden, Say Something!

After obediently accepting Ichinose's lecture, Kamio Tatsuya and Kamuro made an excuse to slip away.

The first-year students who had witnessed Ichinose's slightly stricter side changed their opinion of her a little, feeling that this upperclassman wasn't quite what she seemed.

After all, in their eyes, Kamio Tatsuya was a tough guy who dared to go against the school rules, but even someone like you would run away in the face of Ichinose's lecture.

Bravo!

The changes on the boys' side weren't obvious yet, but the first-year girls' eyes were sparkling as they looked at Ichinose.

Oh no, there's an enemy!

A thought suddenly popped into Chihiro Shiraha's mind, and her expression immediately became wary.

The exchange meeting between first-year and second-year students was still proceeding smoothly. Ichinose's performance had just made her very popular among the first-year students.

Furthermore, the students in Class B are quite capable, so Ichinose's class shouldn't have to worry about this exam.

The post that Tatsuya Kamio made on the forum continues to gain traction, with students adding fuel to the fire with various exaggerated comments, seemingly enjoying the spectacle.

Some people even anonymously encouraged Tatsuya Kamio, the poster, to go directly to the student council or the principal's office to protest.

However, Tatsuya Kamio never replied to the post. After posting, he disappeared without a trace, leaving the post to spread unchecked.

Surprisingly, even though the matter has become widely known, the school has still not responded.

He neither agreed to Tatsuya Kamio's request nor denied it, and he didn't even delete the post.

Normally, this matter has been brewing for a whole day, and the school should have already given a result, whether it's being dealt with or not.

However, the situation remains incredibly complex and unpredictable.

So it wasn't just the second-year students who felt something was off; even the first-year students started to get nervous.

What will happen if this development turns out to be?

"Good morning, Kamio. Your post hasn't been deleted yet! What's the school thinking? Are they really going to accept your protest?"

The next morning, when Tatsuya Kamio went to school, he encountered Hashimoto from Class C.

Upon meeting, Hashimoto jokingly brought up the post.

"Who knows?" Tatsuya Kamio chuckled. "You're really late today. Don't you need to go to the school to gather information?"

"Right now, everyone's attention is on your post. Nobody wants to make any rash moves before things become clear."

Hashimoto made a bear-like gesture with his hands outstretched, his expression full of helplessness.

Are you all not planning to make any rash moves?

Unfortunately, this time the time isn't on the second-year students' side. If Tsukishiro really keeps playing dead, Kamio Tatsuya can't possibly make all the students in the grade miss the exam.

Therefore, the closer the exams get, the more passive the second-year students become.

To outsiders, that's probably how it seems.

However, Tatsuya Kamio never intended to use this protest to force Tsukishiro to submit.

Unrealistic.

But don't forget, Tatsuya Kamio isn't the only one in the class with the ability and prestige to plan for the exam.

Kamio Tatsuya's side was only public; he openly and legitimately voiced his protest, attracting the attention of most of the first and second-year students.

Then Longyuan secretly carried out his plan.

So even if Tsukishiro fakes his death until the very end, Kamio Tatsuya doesn't care, since Ban will definitely have found a sufficient number of highly qualified people by then.

Having fought his way up to this point, how could Tatsuya Kamio possibly put all his eggs in one basket?

It's good that you're holding back. If you hold back, we'll take advantage of the chaos to fish in troubled waters!

"Kamio, do you think the school will approve your protest?"
