Chapter 286 286: Special Exam
"Everyone, please train with me."
The students of Class A, led by Arisu, were systematically conducting physical training.
Arisu stood tall and focused. After receiving the gift of Soul Apportion, she had recovered from her congenital disease. Now, she could energetically participate in strenuous exercise, exuding confidence and vitality in every gesture.
"Everyone, let's do our best, come on."
Ichinose of B Class, her face beaming with a brilliant smile, was as vibrant as ever. She encouraged her classmates loudly while performing the exercises, her smile like the warm sun of spring, warm and infectious, motivating the students around her with high spirits.
"Hey! Is that all you've got? Train until you drop!"
Ryuen of Class C was still the same, his face full of impatience, forcing his classmates to undergo high-intensity training. He stood with his arms crossed, his eyes revealing an extreme desire for victory, as if he was about to rush forward and use violence to preach at any moment.
"There's not much time left until the next exam. If you don't want to be expelled, then try your best."
Although the students of D Class were relatively weaker in physical ability and strength, under Suzune's supervision, they were all working hard to improve themselves. Suzune stood upright, her eyes sharp, carefully observing the movements of each student, and if she found anyone slacking off, she would reprimand them without mercy.
Tenya stood on the edge of the sports field, quietly watching all of this. His gaze moved through the crowd, searching for familiar figures. Soon, his attention focused on the beautiful girls of D Class.
"Tenya-kun, why are you here?"
Kushida, this social butterfly, was the first to run over like a lively fawn. She wore a tight-fitting tracksuit that perfectly outlined her voluptuous figure, exuding youthful vitality that made people unable to help but take a few more glances.
"Of course, I came to see you, Kikyo-chan." Tenya's lips curled into a charming smile, and he spoke without hesitation.
"Hmph. Just here to see Kushida?" Kei happened to run past, her high ponytail swaying, a playful smile on her face.
"On the surface, I came to see Kikyo, but in reality, I came to see Kei." Tenya shifted his target.
"I see, it seems Airi and I came at the wrong time." Haruka and Airi walked together. Haruka crossed her arms over her chest, raising an eyebrow slightly as she spoke.
"No, you're just in time. We are all good friends who know each other well." Tenya opened his arms, showing a broad mind.
"Your shamelessness knows no bounds." Suzune walked over solemnly, her cold eyes carrying a hint of sharpness.
"Suzune, how have you been feeling lately?" Tenya asked with concern, a gentle smile on his face.
"You, what do you mean by that?"
Suzune instantly recalled that night's passionate exchange, and a blush immediately appeared on her normally cold face, her eyes became evasive, and she unconsciously lowered her head, her toes gently scuffing the ground.
"Suspicious..."
The other girls looked suspiciously at Suzune, then refocused their gaze on Tenya.
"Tenya, don't you dare forget what you promised me that night."
Suzune ignored the strange looks from others, staring at Tenya with a serious expression, her eyes full of determination.
"Don't worry, Suzune, I will keep my promise. However, you need to be prepared. What you need to do is not easy to accomplish." Tenya spoke vaguely.
"Eh?"
"Tenya-kun and Horikita, what kind of riddle are you two speaking?" Kushida leaned in.
"Nothing, just about the class battle." Tenya dismissed it casually, a faint smile still on his face.
Just then, the school's broadcast suddenly sounded.
"Attention, students, a special mock exam will be held today. Please proceed to the designated classrooms to take the exam. The results of this exam will have a significant impact on the class battle, so please take it seriously."
Upon hearing the broadcast, the students stopped their training and walked towards the designated classrooms. However, none of this concerned Tenya. He looked at their departing backs, deep in thought.
...
In the spacious, bright, yet inexplicably oppressive special exam venue at Advanced Nurturing High School, everything in the classroom was shrouded in an invisible tension.
The surrounding walls were dazzlingly white, and the overhead lights shone down unreservedly, making the entire space appear particularly empty. At this moment, on the large electronic screen at the front of the classroom, the rules of this mock exam were displayed in prominent fonts and scrolling text.
[This exam is a cross-grade comprehensive ability assessment, covering academic knowledge, physical fitness tests, psychological strategy, and teamwork.]
[The exam results will directly affect each class's points. The lowest-ranked class will have 200 class points deducted and one student will be forcibly expelled.]
"Expelled?!"
D Class erupted in an uproar, Kei's face turned pale, Haruka clenched her fists, Kushida's eyes flickered, and even the usually calm Suzune frowned deeply. She subconsciously picked up her phone to check someone's message.
Tenya's familiar and somewhat teasing words appeared on the screen.
[You're looking for me again, are you missing me that much?]
"...."
When Suzune saw this sentence, the corner of her lips twitched unconsciously, but her originally tense nerves relaxed slightly in that instant, and the anxiety in her heart seemed to be blown away by a gentle breeze.
Her gaze shifted to Class A's classroom. The layout here was particularly exquisite, filled with an elegant atmosphere.
Arisu was sitting in her seat, her long, pale fingers gently manipulating the chess pieces on the chessboard in front of her. The pieces were neatly arranged, each one seemingly telling of its owner's wisdom and strategy.
"This exam is essentially a resource struggle." Arisu's voice was soft and melodious.
As she spoke, she gently stroked the chessboard, her slender fingertip finally lightly tapping the Queen piece.
"Each class initially has 100 resource points. More resources are acquired through answering questions, physical competitions, and psychological strategy rounds. The final total resources determine the ranking."
"But the problem is…"
Masumi folded her arms across her chest, a mocking sneer on her face. "Those idiots in D Class probably can't even understand the rules, right?"
"Kamuro-san, don't underestimate them."
Arisu narrowed her eyes slightly, a sharp glint flashing in her long, narrow gaze. "After all, they have that foreign aid."
As if to confirm her words, the back door of the A Class classroom was suddenly pushed open forcefully, emitting a harsh creaking sound.
"Good afternoon, beauties of A Class." Tenya strode into the classroom openly, his steps light and slightly arrogant.
"???"
The boys of A Class were speechless at this scene, their faces showing dissatisfaction.
Are we male students non-existent?
As soon as Tenya entered, he casually picked up the red tea by Arisu's hand, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one gulp, then wiped his mouth and said indifferently, "I've seen the exam rules, they're quite boring."
"Oh my. How does Tenya-kun plan to play?"
Arisu rested her chin on her hand, a charming faint smile on her face, her small leg wrapped in white silk gently brushed against his knee under the table, her eyes full of ambiguity and anticipation.
"I hope D Class wins this exam." Tenya said calmly, as if the final answer had already been revealed.
"Interesting. Can I take that as a challenge from Tenya-kun to me?" Arisu smiled.
"Think whatever you want." Tenya just smiled and didn't explain further.
Then he changed the subject, leaned his face close to Arisu's ear, and whispered, "Arisu's white silk today is especially smooth and slippery."
Masumi couldn't help but roll her eyes at this scene, and said impatiently, "Hey! Can you two flirt at an appropriate time and place?"
