After informing the students about the rit Evaluation, Chabashira Sae picked up a piece of chalk and wrote down the scores of each class on the blackboard.
Class A: 940
Class B: 980
Class C: 490
Class D: 0
"In the first month, every class fairly received 1,000 Class Points. Look at the other classes, and then look at yourselves."
Chabashira Sae leaned her hands on the desk, a cold smile radiating from her face. "Wasting all your Class Points down to zero in the first month of school, you are the most 'excellent' class since the school's founding."
Hearing her emphasize the word "excellent," the Class D students lowered their heads, afraid to speak up.
Under normal circumstances, if they were compared to other classes, so students would surely feel indignant.
But seeing that the worst of the other classes had 490 points, and two classes even exceeded 900 points, they didn't dare to refute her.
Yet, even in this situation, so people in the class were whispering.
"Horikita, did you notice?"
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka saw the points corresponding to each class on the blackboard and took the initiative to speak to the girl sitting next to him.
"Class A and Class B are far too outstanding compared to the other classes." Horikita Suzune also noticed the unusual scores.
If the students of the four classes were randomly assigned, there naturally wouldn't be such a large disparity in Class Points. However, after one month of the rit Evaluation, Class A and Class B maintained high Class Points, Class C had nearly 500 points, and then there was Class D with 0 points.
Does this an the school assigns classes based on student ability, with outstanding students in Class A and Class B, average students in Class C, and the worst students in Class D?
Horikita Suzune furrowed her brows and clenched her fists tightly, her knuckles turning white from the force.
Whether it was her entrance exam scores or her performance during the interview, she should have proven herself to be outstanding.
Since coming to this school, she had studied diligently every day, never been late or left early, and her scores on small tests should rank among the best in the grade.
Why was she, who excelled in academics and sports and strictly adhered to the School Rules, assigned to the worst Class D?
Horikita Suzune desperately wanted to question the school administration, but since the teacher was currently explaining the school's hidden rules, she could only suppress her doubts and dissatisfaction for now, planning to ask the teacher after the explanation was over.
Under Chabashira Sae's explanation, the truths previously hidden by the school were revealed one by one.
Only Class A could enjoy the school's benefits.
Class assignnts were not random but were based on student ability.
Students assigned to Class D were the worst students—defective products.
Those who failed the Midterm Exams would be imdiately expelled.
"On a side note, when your Class Points surpass those of a higher-ranked class, your class ranking will swap."
Chabashira Sae pointed to Class A and Class B on the blackboard. "Since Class B currently has higher Class Points than Class A, starting today, Class B will beco Class A, and the original Class A will beco Class B."
"Speaking of which, this year's original Class A wasn't bad. The Class Points remaining after the rit Evaluation are the highest among all previous Class A groups."
"However, the original Class B was even stronger, becoming the first class since the school's founding to complete a reversal in the very first month."
"This year has seen the strongest Class A and the even stronger Class B. For you, the worst Class D in history, this could be considered a disaster."
Chabashira Sae put the chalk down on the podium, preparing to leave the classroom.
Just then, Horikita Suzune raised her hand high. "Chabashira-sensei, may I ask a question?"
Chabashira narrowed her eyes, crossed her arms, and looked with interest at the girl sitting in the back row of the classroom. "Horikita, if you have a question, ask it quickly."
Horikita Suzune's eyes sharpened. "According to what you just said, the students of the original Class B should have been inferior to those of the original Class A."
"But the original Class B's Class Points are higher. Doesn't this suggest that the school's judgnt of student abilities is inaccurate?"
If that were the case, it would an that her assignnt to Class D was not her fault, but the school's mistake.
"Exactly!"
Hearing Horikita Suzune's words, Yamauchi Haruki loudly shouted while pumping his fist, "Soone as excellent as couldn't possibly be assigned to the worst class! The school must have made a mistake!"
Damn it, what does that have to do with you?
Horikita Suzune glared at Yamauchi in dissatisfaction.
If she didn't possess good self-control, she would genuinely want to punch his mouth shut.
Chabashira Sae crossed her arms. "Horikita, it's normal for you to have this doubt. To be honest, I'm surprised too. But this school has a long history, and the rit Evaluation has existed for many years. After the first month, the average remaining Class Points for previous Class A groups were typically 800 to 900 points, while Class B had 600 to 700 points remaining. Class C and Class D, naturally, had even fewer."
"As I just said, the original Class B is the first class since the school's founding to complete a reversal in the first month. Perhaps, regarding the evaluation of Class B, the school did indeed make a mistake."
"However..."
Chabashira Sae changed her tone. "What does that have to do with you, who is currently in Class D? Even if the school genuinely misjudged your ability, the administration cannot transfer you from Class D to Class A right now."
"Horikita, do you have any other questions?"
"No."
Horikita Suzune lowered her arm, her expression still cold, but her eyes beca much more resolute than before.
"Since the school administration admits the possibility of misjudging ability, that ans the problem isn't with . That's enough."
Horikita Suzune's words seed to represent the inner thoughts of the other students in the class.
That's right, maybe the school misjudged their abilities. The Class Points dropping to zero might not be my fault, but caused by others.
Realizing that they might not be the so-called defective products, many people in the class subtly sighed in relief.
Especially high-achieving students like Yukimura Teruhiko and Wang iyu, who blad their assignnt to Class D on the school's lack of foresight.
"Horikita, is that truly what you think?"
Seeing that she had no further questions, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, sitting beside her, spoke up.
Horikita Suzune's tone was extrely firm. "It is a fact. Chabashira-sensei just admitted that the school misjudged the abilities of the original Class B students, didn't she?"
'But that doesn't an they misjudged your ability.' Hearing her words, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka really wanted to retort.
But he had a premonition that if he actually said that, he would definitely be hit. Therefore, he decided to phrase it differently.
"But Chabashira-sensei also said that even if the school misjudged abilities, it doesn't change the fact that you are currently a Class D student."
"If you want to enjoy the benefits promised by the school, you still have to work hard to get promoted to Class A, right?"
Horikita Suzune nodded slightly. "Of course, I have considered that issue. But the fact that the original Class B managed to complete a reversal in the first month shows that class competition isn't as difficult as imagined. If we continue, we definitely have a chance to rise to Class A."
"You are truly optimistic."
Ayanokoji chose to shut his mouth, temporarily deciding not to communicate further with the overly confident girl beside him.
His thoughts were entirely focused on the original Class B completing their reversal. If he rembered correctly, that guy was a Class B student.
He recalled Takada Hikaru, whom he t on the first day of school. When they ran into each other at the convenience store, the latter already possessed 1.6 million points and had stated that he knew the school's hidden rules.
In other words, was it precisely because Takada Hikaru figured out the hidden rules ahead of ti that the original Class B was able to achieve a reversal in the first month?
What a terrifying guy.
