I'm in a real religion, why are all the people who confess to me girls?

In doing so, Baoquan's actions, which were originally intended to escalate the situation, have now inadvertently provided the other party with the most fatal evidence.

"Not everything can be solved with fists in this place. I'm here to teach you a lesson today."

Long Yuan sneered as he brushed the dust off his clothes.

"I miscalculated. I never imagined that Long Yuanxiang, once revered by all, would have fallen to this state. You've become a clown who only knows how to scheme and plot. You no longer deserve to be my 'enemy.'"

Baoquan readily admitted his defeat, but he did not believe that it was due to Longyuan's strength. Longyuan was seen as someone who only knew how to use petty tricks. Even if he defeated such a person, Baoquan would not feel any sense of accomplishment. For a time, Baoquan felt that the school had become somewhat boring because he had lost his goal.

"Hey, as long as we win, the process doesn't matter, right?"

"That's true, but I hope you can win in the end. I heard you even submitted a blank paper. I hope your little tricks will work on the school. Hmph, Nanase, let's go."

Baoquan snorted coldly and then gave an order to Nanase beside him.

Nanase bowed helplessly to Ryuen and Shiina before quickly following Baoquan. Although Nanase looked down on Baoquan, it was undeniable that Baoquan represented Class 1-D at this moment. Even if this punch gave Ryuen a handle to use against him, if the other students in the class knew, they would definitely say that Baoquan did a good job. They had been harassed by Ryuen for days and were on the verge of a mental breakdown. Baoquan had stood up for everyone in the class at this time, and even if it caused trouble, they probably wouldn't care too much. For the sake of the class's interests, Nanase could only acquiesce to the fact that Baoquan had punched him from the perspective of Class 1-D.

Once the two figures had disappeared from sight, Ryuen turned to Shiina and asked her a question.

Who do you think is more threatening?

"Does Ryuen-kun suspect that Nanase-san has a problem?"

When Shiina heard Ryuen ask that question, she immediately realized what Ryuen wanted to say, so she took the initiative to bring up the topic.

"Hmm, I don't know how to put it, but for a fleeting moment just now, the way she looked at Baoquan was a little different. It reminded me a bit of that guy, Miyako..."

"whee."

Shiina couldn't help but laugh when he heard Ryuen compare Nanase to Amane.

Long Yuan paused for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Ah, that guy couldn't possibly be like Miyako, but she must be hiding something. It's a pity that even the smartest person would have a hard time getting things done with someone as impulsive as Takarazumi. Let's go in too, or we'll leave a bad impression on those 'big shots' if we're late."

As Long Yuan spoke, he began to walk towards the teaching building where the student council was located.

"Ryuen, are you sure you're okay going like this?"

Shiina glanced at Ryuen, whose nose was still bleeding, and spoke up with a strange expression.

"It's okay, let's just treat it as a surprise for everyone."

Since Ryuen had said so, Shiina naturally had nothing to say. Shiina nodded and followed Ryuen into the teaching building.

The student council's meeting room was on the second floor. As soon as they entered the meeting room, everyone's eyes immediately turned to Longyuan.

"Longyuan, what's going on?"

Sitting in the head seat was Asahina Nagisa.

Since both the student council president, Sakayanagi Arisu, and the student council secretary, Matsushita Chiaki, are members of the classes involved in this meeting, the meeting was chaired by Asahina Nagisa, the vice president, to avoid any appearance of impropriety.

When she saw Long Yuan's face covered in blood, she immediately stood up, intending to find something to stop the bleeding.

"It's nothing. I just ran into Baoquan downstairs. I greeted him, and he probably got a bad mood and punched me. These younger guys these days have such bad tempers."

As Long Yuan spoke, he glanced at Bao Quan.

"Baoquan, do you have any explanation for this?"

Normally, Asahina Nazuna appears soft and gentle, lacking the authority of a vice president, but at this moment, she unexpectedly displays the demeanor expected of a third-year vice president.

When questioned in public, Baoquan could no longer hide and had to admit that he had punched Longyuan.

However, Baoquan emphasized that it was precisely because Longyuan repeatedly provoked Class D of the first year that he couldn't help but resort to violence against Longyuan, and also subtly criticized the student council's inaction.

"If the student council could handle this kind of thing in a timely manner, I wouldn't want to get my hands dirty."

Baoquan's arrogant attitude immediately aroused the disgust of the first and second graders.

As the representative of Class C in the first year, Riku Utsunomiya even exchanged a glance with Takuya Yagami, the representative of Class B in the first year, hoping that someone would stand up and teach Hosen a lesson.

Admittedly, everyone knows how perfunctory and biased the student council was in dealing with Longyuan's provocative behavior.

However, the student council of Gaoyu is essentially the will of the school. If you can overthrow the student council in one fell swoop, then you can say whatever you want. But if you can't solve the problem with the student council, why do you still provoke them with reckless words?

Sakayanagi Arisu can serve as student council president for at least another year, isn't that just making things difficult for herself and the first-year students?

So when the first-year class leaders heard Baoquan speak like that, they all frowned. Nanase, who was sitting next to Baoquan, simply lowered her head and pretended not to hear anything.

Upon hearing this, Asahina's face darkened. It was the first time she had encountered such a reckless person, and she didn't know how to deal with it for a moment.

Right there, there was a knock on the conference room door, and Amane and Karuizawa entered.

As for why it wasn't Ichinose or Horikita...

It was because a small problem occurred in the class, namely, Ayanokouji publicly announced his breakup with Sato, and then Sato went berserk. Horikita pushed Amane to solve the problem. Amane had no idea how to deal with the breakup, but when the time came, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and step in.

So Amane knocked Ayanokouji and Sato unconscious with a karate chop. Although Amane felt that Ayanokouji was faking it, the situation was under control after both of them were knocked out. Horikita and Hirata were responsible for taking the two to the infirmary to find Hoshinomiya-sensei for help.

Ichinose stayed behind to explain to Chabashira-sensei the reason for Sato's outburst.

Unable to gather two people, Amane had no choice but to drag Karuizawa, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, to the meeting.

When Karuizawa realized he was there for another meeting, his face fell.

Because in all the school meetings she attended, there were reports of students dropping out.

This made Karuizawa resistant to the student council meetings and she refused to come with Amane no matter what.

Having no other choice, Amane spent some time 'appeasing' Karuizawa before he reluctantly agreed to attend the meeting with her.

As soon as I entered, I encountered... well, a very indescribable scene.

A group of people sat there staring at each other, while Long Yuan was still bleeding from his nose.

The scene left Tianyin completely stunned.

"What...what are you doing?"

Tianyin tentatively asked.

Upon seeing that it was Tianyin, everyone present immediately turned their heads in different directions with varying expressions, except for Jiang Yan, who waved happily to Tianyin.

What's the situation?

"Longyuan, you've been a bit short of temper lately."

Tianyin patted Longyuan on the shoulder and winked at him mischievously.

"I think you should take care of yourself first. You've been quite popular lately, with rumors about you and the first-year students everywhere. If you don't keep your temper in check, you might just suddenly die in some girl's dorm room one day."

Upon hearing Long Yuan's words, many people smiled knowingly.

"You don't need to worry about your older sister's affairs."

"Big sister? Are you still a baby who hasn't been weaned?"

When Ryuen heard that Shohiko actually addressed Tenon as "Big Sister," he immediately retorted. But the next second, with a whoosh, something grazed Ryuen's cheek.

There was a loud 'bang'.

A lead bullet dented the blackboard in the conference room behind Longyuan.

The entire conference room fell into a deathly silence once again.

Even Bao Quan, who had been incredibly arrogant just moments before, was so shocked by this scene that his pupils instinctively contracted.

He didn't even see when Jiang Yan made his move.

If an ordinary person were hit by one of these lead bullets, their nose would probably be broken.

"I take back what I just said. As expected of Miyako's brother, he's a troublesome monster just like your sister."

"Hey!! Don't generalize your brother's behavior to your sister! How could a gentle girl like me be a monster?!"

Upon hearing Tianyin's shameless remark, Tianze couldn't help but click his tongue.

Because the meeting room was still very quiet, Tianyin heard the click of her tongue clearly.

When Tianze saw that he was undermining her, Tianyin put her hands in her pockets.

"Whoa!!"

Tianze suddenly let out a scream, which drew an unfriendly look from Jiang Yan beside her.

"what are you doing?"

"I...I...I suddenly have a stomachache..."

"...Resolve this quickly, don't embarrass me in this kind of meeting."

After Jiang Yan gave the order, he closed his eyes.

Tenze gave Asahina an apologetic look before quickly leaving the conference room.

After Tianze's little incident, the tense atmosphere in the meeting room eased considerably.

After Amane lent Ryuen tissues to stop his bleeding, and Asahina announced that she would hold Hosen accountable, Ryuen and Shiina sat down.

Amane swaggered over and led the blushing Karuizawa to their seats.

Upon seeing that Tianyin and Tianze were seated next to each other, Jiang Yan immediately switched seats with Tianze and insisted on sitting next to Tianyin, no matter how Tianyin tried to shoo him away.

Left with no other choice, Tianyin had to give up the opportunity to have an in-depth conversation with Tianze during the meeting and let Jiang Yan, the conspicuous one, sit next to her.

The meeting officially began only after Tianze returned.

After confirming that all class representatives from the first and second grades had gathered, Asahina announced the start of the meeting.

"First of all, thank you all for attending this meeting. I, Asahina Nazuna from Class C of the third year, will be chairing this meeting. The main topic of discussion is the issue of some second-year students submitting blank papers in protest against the unfairness of the special examination rules. There are three main points of discussion..."

1. Are the rules for this special exam acceptable to all classes? Is there any real unfairness involved?

2. What should be done about students who submit blank papers, and whether their partners, first-year students, should be subject to joint punishment?

3. If there is any unfairness, how would you like it to be handled? Would you be willing to accept a re-examination?

"Let's start by discussing the first question, which is also the most important issue of this meeting: whether everyone can accept the rules of this special exam, and whether there are any unfair aspects. Students who want to answer can raise their hands to speak. In order not to waste everyone's precious time, I hope everyone will speak up. I will record the relevant speeches here."

Longyuan was the first to raise its hand.

“I think the rules for this special exam are completely unreasonable. I am particularly dissatisfied with the punishment of expulsion for failing the exam. There is nothing wrong with the punishment itself, after all, we experienced it in our first year. But... why are the first-year students exempt? One side has no concern about failure at all, which is inherently unfair.”

Longyuan's answer resonated with many people.

Even the first-year students, though somewhat reluctant to admit it, could not deny that Ryuen was right. If it weren't for Amane and Sakayanagi organizing the auction to gather and distribute all the resources for this special exam...

In the end, the first-year students will reap the benefits, while the second-year students will be completely put on the defensive.

This clearly demonstrates that the rules are biased, but Baoquan does not think so.

“I disagree with Longyuan’s statement. First-year students are not very familiar with the exam content. Everyone’s academic level is determined based on the entrance exam results. The exam content was all from junior high school textbooks, but now the exam content is from senior high school textbooks. We don’t even know how many junior high school students can perform at the OAA academic level, and yet they want all those who fail to be expelled? What kind of school makes sense like this? Why don’t the second-year students say they know the exam content better than us?”

Baoquan's words were immediately echoed by Utsunomiya.

Despite his intense loathing for Baoquan, this was a battle between the first and second year students, and both sides had to unite...

Utsunomiya couldn't help but twitch her lips as she watched Masahiko peel an orange for Amane.

That guy who meticulously peeled off all the white stuff from the orange really is Miyako Masahiko, the first-year student known as the 'Tyrant'?

If even the most capable people in their grade have already been turned, will they really be able to gain anything from this meeting?

“I agree with Baoquan’s statement. Although we have some advantages in terms of the outcome, we can’t really demonstrate our abilities according to the OAA’s academic level in terms of the exam content. As a result, almost everyone with an academic level below B is hovering around the passing mark. If we can’t pass the test on something we’ve learned, we can only blame ourselves for not working hard enough. But half of them have not learned the material. If we expel all the people who fail, at least one-fifth of the first-year students will be expelled, right?”

It's simply unrealistic to expel one-fifth of the students at once, but the test results for the first-year students were not nearly as bad as Baoquan and Utsunomiya had described. In fact, no first-year students failed the test.

However, the test paper did contain content that they hadn't yet learned, which did indeed affect their grades. Using this as an excuse at this point was somewhat appropriate.

Asahina was also feeling a bit of a headache. Both sides were making valid points, which made Asahina unsure of what to do. In fact, she felt that the problem lay with the school, because the original special exam was not like this at all. It was because a certain board member insisted on cultivating the ability of "cooperation and communication" in the first and second years, which forced students who couldn't swim to design this cross-grade joint exam.

As a result, the students were forced to submit blank papers in protest.

If they knew it would cause problems, why did they do it in the first place? In the end, the student council had to clean up the mess left by the board members, which was really troublesome.

"Does the second-year students have anything to say?"

Asahina turned her gaze to the other second-year students.

Kanzaki had no intention of speaking at all. This time, their results were on par with Class B, also known as Sakayanagi Class. They had almost secured first or second place. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, they were basically guaranteed to get dozens of class points and many people's 10,000 individual points. After their own interests were satisfied, Class D of the second year had no objection to fairness or unfairness. On the contrary, they felt that Ryuen was making a mountain out of a molehill.

Meanwhile, Class B representatives Masayoshi Hashimoto and Shinobu Fukuyama basically shared Kanzaki's thoughts: they had already won the first-place prize, yet they complained that the rules were unfair.

Even if the rules are fair, you still can't get first place, right?

Therefore, Class B had no intention of paying any attention to Longyuan.
