After casually checking the data of a few students, Tianyin realized that she hadn't checked her own data yet, so she clicked on it.

2-A Miyako Tenon.

First Grade Results:

Academic ability S (100)

Physical ability S (100)

Mechanical thinking ability A+ (97)

Social contribution C+ (50)

Overall ability: A (92)

Doesn't something look a little off?

Why is her social contribution so low?! Tianyin goes on a shopping spree every month, and if we're talking about social contribution, her tax payments should undoubtedly be the highest in the entire school!

Tianyin possesses considerable confidence in strange places.

"Tianyin's data... So you're no longer human, are you?"

"Is Miyako-san's data really correct? It's a bit too exaggerated."

"Tianyin, you're amazing... There really is someone who can get a perfect score of 100!"

……

As everyone gradually checked the data, a chorus of shocked voices rang out in the class. In fact, the students had been living with Tianyin for a year, so they should have been used to such data.

But when everyone actually saw Tianyin's data processing capabilities, they were all dumbfounded. They simply didn't know what words could describe Tianyin's terrifyingly powerful data.

Especially Yukimura, after seeing his own data, he thought that the highest academic rating in the second year of Class A was probably his A, and at most Amane might be A+. But to his surprise, there was even an S rating, which was beyond his expectations.

In fact, as early as the second semester of the first year, Tianyin was promoted to S-level evaluation early on due to her various outrageous performances. However, at that time, her personal file was not allowed to be freely accessed by students other than the president and vice president of the student council.

Therefore, everyone only had a vague concept of their own abilities, and no one expected that Tianyin's strength would be so extraordinary.

This left everyone dumbfounded after seeing Tianyin's exaggerated numbers.

"As you can see, Miyako's stats can only be described as monstrous. She was also the first to break the school's rules by establishing an exclusive S-rank rating on top of the A+ rating."

"Exclusive? What do you mean by that, Mr. Chabashira?"

"It seems you don't know yet, but Miyako got full marks on all her first-year exams, including the entrance exam, which is why she received an S-rank academic rating. As for her physical abilities, I don't need to say more, right? During the last physical exam, the school discovered that Amane's physical data actually broke the records of some top world-class athletes. For a high school student, this is really unbelievable. However, since such a monster has really appeared, the school has no choice but to set up an S-rank physical ability rating for her separately."

At this point, Mr. Chabashira seemed to have thought of something important and added.

"Even if others try their best, if they make even the slightest mistake, their data will only be A+ (99). So it's not an exaggeration to say that Miyako's evaluation is an exclusive evaluation."

As soon as Teacher Chaba finished speaking, there was a chorus of "Wow, that's amazing!" from the audience.

"S-rank physical abilities... does that mean you're just pretending to be a lazy bum all the time, Tianyin?"

Horikita recalled that every time she fought Amane, Amane would become like a salted fish after only a few rounds, refusing to continue fighting no matter what.

Horikita initially thought that Amane's fighting ability was a bit weak, so he would occasionally cook her a big meal to replenish her strength, and usually he would restrain his desires and stop when he was at a disadvantage.

But who knew this salted fish had a trick up its sleeve?

If it weren't for the fact that Amane's physical abilities were exposed on OAA, Horikita would have really thought that Amane would switch to being a lazy bum all the time. Thinking about it that way, it makes a lot of sense that Amane deliberately conserves her strength every time.

Could it be that he's planning to secretly satisfy other girls behind her back?

At present, this is the only reason that can be explained, since Horikita is completely at the mercy of Amane when she is in a high mood.

If Tianyin is in a bad mood, she will often pretend to be a lazy bum to get away with it.

"In that case, I'll have to check your homework carefully every night from now on, Tianyin."

Chapter Four: Sell Me

At this moment, Tianyin had no idea what kind of nightmare life she would face in the future; her attention was entirely focused on checking her classmates' data.

It must be said that the decision to abandon the five idiots in the first year, which was controversial at the time, now seems to be an absolutely wise one. Although it was also related to their failing grades, their departure did effectively promote the students' enthusiasm for self-study.

The student with the lowest academic ability in Class 2A is a boy named Minami, but even he has a D- rating. Several other boys, including Okiya, have similar ratings. It's fortunate that no one has received an E rating.

In addition, Tianyin is also searching for the name of another person.

2-A Sakura Airi

Academic ability B- (61)

Physical ability C- (44)

Mechanical thinking ability D+ (40)

Social contribution C+ (59)

Overall ability: C (49)

When Amane saw the data, she checked the name on it several times. After confirming it repeatedly, she was certain that it was Sakura Airi's data, and a relieved smile appeared on Amane's face.

It seems that Airi is also working hard in places she doesn't notice. Although Airi's data looks rather ordinary, even her highest academic ability seems to only barely reach the edge of a B-level evaluation, and there's nothing to brag about.

However, this is indeed an improvement compared to Sakura's evaluation a year ago. Unbeknownst to many, Sakura has become an indispensable member of the class through her own abilities.

Amane clicked on the overall ranking on OAA and found that Sakura was ranked 27th, which was considered a median in her class. This result meant that she had completely escaped the possibility of being expelled due to her grades.

This is definitely something to celebrate for Sakura.

Amane quietly turned her head to look in Sakura's direction, where Sakura, sitting in another corner, was secretly wiping away tears from the corners of her eyes.

Perhaps it was because he finally saw proof that his efforts had not been in vain?

Well done, Aeri!

Just as Tenon was about to continue looking at other people's data, the teacher Chabashira on the podium, seeing that everyone was basically familiar with the operation of OAA, began to tell everyone the most important thing about this class meeting.

"I see that everyone is already quite familiar with each other, so I can confidently tell you about this month's arrangements."

So, is 'that' really coming?

If you've lived in this school for a whole year and still don't understand what a sudden change in the tone of Chabashira-sensei's voice means, then you're really failing.

"Huh? I knew the school wouldn't just sit idly by at the start of the semester. What kind of special exam is this? A special exam at the beginning of the semester shouldn't be too difficult, right?"

Sato frankly expressed his dissatisfaction.

Lately, the school's special exams have become more and more like a battle of gods. Sato has hardly had a chance to perform in the recent special exams, at most serving as cannon fodder, while the top students' performances are even more exaggerated and incomprehensible.

For example, during the Command Tower event, there was that girl from Class D named Ninomiya, whom Sato had absolutely no recollection of, who actually managed to beat Kiyotaka in rock-paper-scissors and even managed to turn the tables. If that girl was just lucky, that would be one thing, but she was also able to perform at the same level as Koenji in the previous academic competitions when the Command Tower intervened.

Everyone knows that Koenji is an oddball, but as his classmate, everyone has to admit that Koenji is also a monster in terms of strength. Koenji, who can almost always get a perfect score, will also struggle in the Command Tower competition, which is beyond Sato's comprehension.

Especially in the last match, the checkers match between Himeno and Amane, Sato knew nothing about checkers, but that didn't prevent her from understanding the game; it was simply about finding a way to capture the opponent's pieces.

When she saw that Tianyin had been reduced to only one piece, she thought Tianyin was doomed to lose. But who would have thought that Tianyin would turn the tables and win with a single move?

The content of the competition might still be considered ordinary, but the difficulty level has increased several levels. Now, the school's special exams are no longer something that ordinary people like them can interfere with.

Sato felt a sense of loss, like an outsider, which made her somewhat unwilling, but given her strength, she had no other choice but to be used or discarded as a pawn.

"You can rest assured about that, Sato-kun. This special exam is not too difficult."

With Chashu-sensei's words, many people breathed a sigh of relief. Many hadn't recovered from the holiday yet, and if the intensity of the special exams was too high, there might be unnecessary sacrifices.

"This special exam is called the 'Inter-Level Joint Exam,' but it's really just a cooperative exam with a different partner, so don't put too much pressure on yourselves."

The partner has changed, and it's called a cross-grade joint exam, could it be...?

Tianyin immediately guessed what kind of exam content would make people's stomachs hurt next.

"The special exam is quite simple. You will be paired with a first-year student to take the exam. The scope of this exam is all based on the first-year students' learning content. The difficulty is not high. There are five subjects in total, and each subject is worth 100 points. The maximum score is 500 points. As long as the combined score of the two of you exceeds 500 points, you will pass."

Teacher Chabashira's explanation left many students still looking completely bewildered.

It's not that I have any problem with the rule, but I'm confused about why I have to take the exam with first graders.

Anyone with a little thought knows that if you want to become partners when you're not familiar with each other, you'll inevitably need some normal social activities. Although everyone now has the most basic social skills, it's limited to people in the class who are relatively familiar with each other and can communicate without barriers. Apart from students like Kushida, Ichinose, Hirata, and Amane who are popular in other classes, the other students have almost no friendships with students from other classes in the same grade.

Even classmates are like this, let alone engaging in social activities with younger students or even trying to build a good relationship with them.

This is a terrifying thing for students with social anxiety, and it makes them even more afraid to get good grades.

"With first-year students? Why would you do that? Can't you choose partners from among classmates or... from among students in the same grade? Partnering with students a year younger than us just feels..."

Sato's predicament was almost written all over his face, and after Sato spoke first, many others chimed in to echo his sentiments.

"That's what I'm saying, Mr. Chabashira. It feels a little embarrassing to be paired with first-year students who are even younger than us."

"We can overcome the embarrassment, but the key issue is that we know absolutely nothing about first graders. Even if they are willing to cooperate with us, they will most likely be the top students, right? Who would want to cooperate with the poor students?"

……

The once peaceful classroom became noisy. The expression on Chabashira's face did not change much from beginning to end. Rather than being calm, it was more like Chabashira had expected that there would be various complaints in the class.

Actually, it would have been quite simple for Teacher Chabashira to stop these complaints. All he had to do was say, "This is the school's arrangement. Complaining won't change anything." That would have easily shut everyone up.

But Ms. Chabashira didn't do that; she seemed to be waiting for something.

Amane turned to look at Horikita, who was calculating something in her notebook. She seemed to be trying to confirm the score range for each evaluation on the OAA.

Completely unaware of Chabashira-sensei's unusual behavior.

Since Horikita hasn't made any move, it's up to her to speak.

"Anyone who thinks they don't want to face opponents of different ages is undoubtedly a fool."

Before Tianyin even spoke, the entire classroom was as noisy as a market, filled with complaints and grumbling.

But as soon as Tianyin opened her mouth to speak, all the sounds stopped abruptly, as if a mute button had been pressed.

This is a rule that Class A has had since it was Class B: everyone must stop talking before Tianyin speaks.

Tenon glanced around and, seeing that everyone's attention had been drawn to her except for Koenji, then began to explain.

"The idea of ​​skipping a grade might make you feel like 'this is too much trouble, dealing with freshmen,' but in reality, this kind of thing happens all the time, doesn't it? When you go to a bubble tea shop or coffee shop, the server might be a student working part-time who is younger than you. And after entering the workforce, you will inevitably encounter dealing with or competing with seniors who have ten or twenty years of work experience. So there is absolutely no need to complain when you encounter this kind of thing. What we need to do is listen to the rules and then come up with a solution. It's that simple."

After Amane finished speaking, she looked at Chabashira-sensei.

Teacher Chabashira smiled with satisfaction.

The entire class needs a leader, especially now that they are in Class A. This means that all other classes will become their enemies. In addition to facing various special exams, they also need to compete with students in the same grade or even first grade. Under such pressure, if no one stands up to stabilize morale, the enormous pressure will easily crush these students who have not even reached the average level of Class A.

Tianyin's words brought the class back to silence. Although some students were still dissatisfied, everyone knew that Tianyin was telling the truth. Since the special exam was something they couldn't avoid, all they could do was listen carefully to the rules and accept the arrangements made by the top students in the class.

"There's nothing particularly noteworthy about the rules. It's just like the partner exam: if one of you fails, both of you will be expelled. If violence or coercion is used, you'll also be expelled. Besides that, first-year students have special privileges. Even if they face expulsion, they can escape it by not receiving points for three months instead. So the main pressure is on us second-year students."

Teacher Chazhu glanced around the class and saw that everyone was listening attentively, and some were even taking notes on the important information in Teacher Chazhu's words. Only when he saw this did Teacher Chazhu truly feel relieved.

"I don't believe you'll be motivated by punishment alone. There are two reward models for this special exam. One is to rank students by their average score in the same grade, and they will receive 50, 30, 10, and 0 class points respectively. The other is to rank students by their total score. The top five will receive 100,000 personal points, and the top 30% of students will receive 10,000 personal points."

The reward wasn't particularly attractive, but this exam was a special academic exam, which was very advantageous for Class B, where Sakayanagi was. Class B might even get fifty class points, which would significantly narrow the already small gap between the two classes.

Therefore, Class A must achieve at least the second-highest average score in this special exam. Although this is somewhat difficult, it shouldn't be too much of a problem if they work hard. They can't just stand by and watch the points of both classes be reduced.

As for personal points, while 100,000 personal points are very tempting, anyone who isn't acting impulsively will understand that this reward isn't for ordinary people. Most people will probably only get 10,000 personal points.

Now, Tianyin and her friends earn over 100,000 points a month, so they don't even care about a mere 10,000 points.

In summary, the goal for Class A in this special exam is to raise the class average score as much as possible while ensuring that no one is expelled.

"Tea Pillar Teacher, if the only punishment for first graders is not receiving points, what if a first grader deliberately gets a zero and we get expelled?"

Okiya, who had a poor performance, came up with a rather terrifying idea.

"The school has also noticed this problem. If a student's test score is significantly different from their usual score, or if they deliberately make mistakes or get a zero, even if the other student is a freshman, they will be expelled. In addition, don't worry about not being familiar with freshmen. Your OAA can access the information of all students in the school, which means you can use the OAA to find the person you want to partner with."

"Once you've decided to team up, you can submit your application through OAA. Remember that each person can only submit one application per day, and you can only check the other person's status as a partner at 8:00 AM the next day. Don't use the OAA application if the other person hasn't confirmed that they want to accept."

The school seems to have put a lot of effort into promoting digital education. In addition to turning textbooks into e-books on tablets, even the special exams unique to Kaohsiung University have started using the OAA system.

It seems likely that most exams will be related to this system in the future.

"Please ask any other questions as soon as possible."

Teacher Chazhu urged those who had questions to ask them quickly. The schedule for this special exam was both generous and stressful. Although there was nearly half a month to prepare, the problem was that it was very difficult to build trust with a first-year student who knew nothing about the subject. You know, some people may not even exchange a single word with their classmates for three years, let alone seek cooperation with a student younger than themselves.

"Tea Pillar Teacher, um, I'd like to ask, what if there are students who don't have a partner on the day of the exam, or if there are extra students, for example, there are definitely more than ten fewer second-year students than first-year students? What should the first-year students do then?"

As a former class leader, Ichinose had a more comprehensive view of the issue than others, and she quickly discovered the loophole that Chabashira-sensei had not mentioned.

"That's a good question. If you don't have a partner on the day of the exam, the school will randomly assign you one. You should understand what this random pairing means, and you'll also have 5% of your total score deducted as a penalty. As for the first-year students who are absent, their scores will be doubled, but they won't receive any reward in this case, and they'll also have 5% of their total score deducted."

In other words, those who were vacant in the first year have essentially been removed from the ranking rewards. Without the reward of personal points, their only goal is to avoid not receiving points for three months. However, those who are left over by the second year are probably not very good at academics.
