Chaos in Classroom of the Elite: Class 1-C

At the prestigious Advanced Nurturing High School, a promise lingers in the air: every graduate is guaranteed to achieve their career or higher education aspirations. Each student receives a monthly allowance of 100,000 points, a seemingly generous treatment fostering a sense of freedom and luxury. Surprisingly, the school's governance is anything but strict. Students are allowed to coast through classes with little regard for attendance or engagement, painting an image of an academic paradise. But beneath this veneer of laxity lies a stark reality—this institution is a battleground of meritocracy, where only the truly excellent receive preferential treatment. Into this highly competitive world steps Yukio Yoritaka, an unexpected entrant in the notorious first-year Class C, a group riddled with delinquents and underachievers. His arrival signals the beginning of an unprecedented upheaval, challenging the very foundations of this elite educational environment. Will Yukio thrive or crumble under the school's hidden pressures, where every student is in a relentless pursuit of excellence? ***This is a translation, I'm not the author*** original: https://b.faloo . com/1164138.html Patreon.com/METARLN

Chapter 54 – I’m talking about one million per month

There'll be a bonus chapter later

***

When Ishizaki returned with the contract as requested by Yukio, and after confirming that there were no hidden clauses, the entire A class, represented by Katsuragi, signed the confidentiality agreement with C class, allowing the discussion to continue.

"Alright, now we can talk in detail about your battle plan, right?" Katsuragi hoped to conclude the discussion quickly. By now, classes B and D had already entered the jungle, and A class could not afford to fall too far behind.

"No problem," Yukio readily threw out C class's zero-point strategy. "As Mashima-sensei mentioned earlier, special exam points are only used for this particular exam, which means even if we use them all, it won't result in negative points, nor will it deduct from our class points."

"Therefore, our class C has decided to enjoy our summer vacation and not play along with the school's game. We plan to exchange for various recreational items, but it would be a waste to leave these resources here in the end."

"If class A is interested in these resources, we can sell them to you at a reasonable price."

Katsuragi's eyes lit up at this! Clever play by class C! This zero-point strategy clearly meant withdrawing from the competition, effectively eliminating one of the toughest competitors, especially C class. This was great news for Katsuragi.

Moreover, C class was willing to sell their resources! This meant that A class didn't have to waste time deciding what to exchange. They could use 370 special exam points to last until C class withdrew, and then continue using the resources.

This would save a substantial amount of special exam points, which could be added to the class points, presenting a significant benefit! With such a profit, they could increase the gap with the lower-ranked classes and significantly boost the monthly private points for each class member!

Such an achievement would solidify Katsuragi's position in the class, making him unthreatened by Sakayanagi.

Thinking this through, Katsuragi's eyes shone brighter, and he immediately agreed to buy: "Good! Name your price."

Yukio casually mentioned his expected price: "One million private points... per month."

When Yukio mentioned one million private points, Katsuragi wasn't concerned, as it seemed like a huge sum but was easily achievable by just ten students from A class each month. However, hearing "every month" changed everything.

Katsuragi was startled: "What?! That's unacceptable! That's equivalent to every person in our class A transferring 25,000 private points to you every month to reach one million!"

"Calculating it, it means we have to ensure that in this special exam, our class A needs to increase by at least 250 class points to profit!"

"Yukio, don't forget, because of Sakayanagi's absence, we start with 270 special exam points, and your resources won't be immediately available!"

"That means, for the first few days, we at least need to spend a small amount of points to maintain our livelihood. I cannot agree to such a deal!" 

"Here are two options for you: first, our class A can make a one-time payment of five million private points for the materials; second, reduce the monthly payment to six hundred thousand points. Only then can we talk about cooperation!"

Yukio watched Katsuragi calmly, expecting him to counteroffer his high demand. However, Yukio held an ace that Katsuragi couldn't refuse: "This price is our bottom line."

"One million private points per month, not a point less."

"Then please leave." Katsuragi stood firm, unable to compromise in front of his entire class, especially without seeing any benefits in doing so.

"Hold on, Katsuragi." Yukio slowly raised his hand, gesturing for Katsuragi not to leave in a hurry: "I didn't say the one million private points per month is for second-hand goods we've used."

"We're all classmates; it's just a batch of second-hand goods. We can't possibly sell them to you at such a high price."

The expressions on Katsuragi and the other A class members' faces weren't too pleasant, somewhat deterred by Yukio's constant reference to the goods as second-hand.

"Our high price has its reasons," Yukio finally revealed another card: "Besides the second-hand goods, we can also provide the identity of the leaders from classes B and D."

"!" Katsuragi's eyes widened, unable to contain his excitement. The additional leader mechanism in this deserted island special exam was a significant turnaround opportunity for any class!

With a correct guess adding fifty points and a wrong one deducting fifty, the potential rewards and risks were enormous and impossible to ignore! If class C could indeed provide this information...

Katsuragi couldn't help but be tempted and started calculating. They could gain a hundred class points! Coupled with the resources provided by class C and maximizing the retention of special exam points, class A could increase their class points by at least three hundred, if not more!

Translated into private points, the average income per student could increase by more than thirty thousand per month!

At this moment, Katsuragi understood why Yukio dared to ask for such a high monthly price. It was banking on this!

If they correctly guess the leaders of the other two classes after the special exam, even after paying class C one million monthly, class A would still profit significantly!

Even after deducting the twenty-five thousand needed to pay class C monthly, spread across each student in class A, they would still net an additional fifty private points.

"The most important thing is, if we indeed manage to add three hundred class points, it will further widen the gap with the other classes! To a large extent, the other three classes will not be able to catch up and fill this enormous gap."

Katsuragi, breathing heavily with excitement, wasn't the only one; the students of class A were equally thrilled, almost pushing Katsuragi aside to agree on his behalf!

Still, as the leader of the class, he wouldn't easily get carried away. Even with the huge benefits right before his eyes, he needed to ensure his class could reap the rewards.

Katsuragi quickly regained his composure, not letting his rationale be overwhelmed by the prospect of enormous gains: "It seems your class C isn't entirely going for a zero-point strategy, huh."

"If special exam points won't become negative, then you can guess the leaders of the other two classes at the last moment, thereby earning a minimum of a hundred points."

"I have a question. If I can get a satisfactory answer, then I can agree to this deal."

"Go ahead, Katsuragi," Yukio confidently responded, anticipating Katsuragi's question. 

Katsuragi, impressed, thought to himself how formidable an opponent Yukio was, glad that he wasn't taking this special exam seriously. But none of this showed on his face: "My question is simple."

"How can we be sure that you can actually provide the leaders of the other two classes?"

"Or, how can we trust that the leaders you provide are genuine? Not a deliberate deception, leading us to guess wrong and be penalized a hundred points by the school?"

"Simple." As Yukio had expected, Katsuragi indeed asked this: "We can sign a second contract, putting everything in writing."

"We can add a clause to the contract: if the leaders provided by our class C turn out to be incorrect, you don't need to pay us one million per month. Instead, we will pay your class A one million points monthly."

Seeing Yukio's confidence, Katsuragi completely let down his guard. Although he didn't understand how class C would figure out the leaders of the other classes, as long as his class A didn't lose out, it was fine.

Thinking this, Katsuragi finally extended his hand: "Then, let's have a pleasant cooperation."
