Shuchiin Classic Literature Club—There were no club activities today, and the reason they gathered together was to celebrate, celebrating the end of everyone's exams! Celebrating that everyone's grades were still among the top.
However, today's Classic Literature Club welcomed many guests...
"First, let us congratulate Tsurumi Rumi, who skipped grades from elementary school and transferred to the first year of the middle school division, for successfully taking the throne of first place in the grade!"
Rumi nodded to everyone, and then Uchiha Ryo was seen clapping and saying.
"Say a few words, Rumi. What are your thoughts on getting first place in the grade right after coming to Shuchiin?"
"Ryo-nii... this isn't an award acceptance speech..."
However, Tsurumi Rumi still stood up, thought for a moment, and continued.
"I really like the general environment of Shuchiin, but I can also feel the difference between the purebloods and the mixed-bloods. So I will continue to work hard to maintain first place. As for the future... I actually want to become the Student Council President!"
Shirogane Miyuki was taken aback for a moment, and then also revealed a smile.
"Is that so? My position is not that easy to sit in. There will be a lot of troublesome things."
Fujiwara Chika blinked, "But she is first place in the grade, and you are only second."
Shirogane Miyuki fell into silence. "..."
It hurts! It hurts too much! Why is it that despite working so hard, I still can't compare to Uchiha Ryo... Just how does his brain work?
Uchiha Ryo smiled. "Next, congratulations to Shirogane Kei of the second year of the middle school division for also taking first place in her grade!"
Shirogane Kei, sitting beside Rumi, stood up somewhat shyly. She suddenly felt that she was actually not even as mature as Rumi...
"Thank you everyone. After all, Ryo-nii occasionally comes over to tutor me, and my old brother can also help me answer questions if I have any. So taking first place is a matter of course!"
"As for the future, if Rumi is going to be the Student Council President, then I want to take over Kaguya-senpai's job and become the Vice President to assist Rumi."
Shinomiya Kaguya also smiled and nodded. "Kei is very talented. I think she will definitely be competent for my position."
Fujiwara Chika chuckled. "Kei can definitely do it too! After all, she is also first place in the grade!"
Shinomiya Kaguya, who was third in the grade, fell into silence. "....."
Worthy of being the cancer of the Earth, easily saying what others don't want to mention. The current President and Vice President expressed: Fujiwara-san, if you know how to talk, then talk more.
"Well, after that! It's the person we should celebrate the most. If Rumi and Kei maintained their positions through hard work, then next is the one with the biggest improvement among us. Ishigami Yu!"
Grade rank 103—Grade rank 46! In one month's time, Ishigami Yu's grades were forcefully pulled up by more than fifty places. Going from a transparent person in the middle tier to an honor student! This relied on more than just perseverance! (There's also the hypnotic assisted learning of the Sharingan)
Ishigami Yu felt a bit awkward being looked at by everyone.
"Everyone is either first in the grade, or top five or six. There's no need to celebrate me, a forty-sixth place..."
Although he said this, Ishigami Yu was still very happy inside. The originally gloomy boy instantly turned into an aloof honor student who usually didn't show off.
Even when playing games, he became confident! Even the homeroom teacher said to the other students, "If you can improve this much by playing games every day, then play as much as you want!"
But why does the current Ishigami Yu still have a gloomy expression? Because his game console was confiscated again.
On the second day after the grades came out, Ishigami Yu had his game console confiscated by his classmate, the Disciplinary Committee member, Iino Miko. Her reason was: you clearly can do well on exams, why do you still play games and waste your talent!
Ishigami Yu was also silenced...
When my grades were poor, you said: It's games that ruined this child! You can't play anymore, confiscating the game console. If your grades were average, I wouldn't bother to manage you.
When my grades were average, you said: Playing games saps the will! Slacking off does you no good, confiscating the game console. If your grades were good, I wouldn't bother to manage you.
When my grades are excellent, you say: You can clearly do well if you just try hard! Why are you still playing games, confiscating the game console so you can go study!
Iino Miko... are you a Disciplinary Committee member or my, Ishigami Yu's, mother? Didn't I just take out my game console at school! It's not like I took out... This is definitely targeting me!
"Next is our year. I won't say much, everyone knows their own rankings." Uchiha Ryo, who still maintained first place, looked at everyone. After all, the rankings of the top six hadn't changed at all.
"So congratulations to President Amakusa of the second year of the High School division for achieving ninth place in the grade."
Amakusa Shino coughed lightly. "It's enough to celebrate those who got first place and those who improved the most. Compared to last time, I dropped five places, barely keeping my spot in the top ten..."
Barely keeping the top ten... Suddenly, Fujiwara Chika's expression stiffened. It seemed she had finally realized something.
"Wait a minute!! You guys are all in the top ten, top six, or even first in the grade. The worst is still in the top fifty. Why is someone like me, who ranked 104th, here!!"
Fujiwara Chika finally felt the world targeting her. Then now... doesn't this mean I am the poor student now?
Fortunately, Hayasaka-san is still with me Fujiwara Chika suddenly threw herself onto Hayasaka Ai. "Wuu wuu wuu, look at this group of people, it's like they're ostracizing me"
Being hugged by Fujiwara Chika, Hayasaka Ai struggled to poke her head out from the murder scene.
"Sorry, Chika-san, I seem to have improved a bit in this exam... my rank is in the eighties."
"Eh—"
If that's the case... if that's the case...
Shuchiin has relatively few students in each grade, but it's stable at around two hundred people. Generally speaking, as long as one gets into the top hundred, they can be considered an honor student. After all, they have eliminated half of the people.
Fujiwara Chika discovered in horror that in this joint group of the Student Council and the Classic Literature Club, she was the only one who wasn't an honor student!!
"Hayasaka-san, wuu wuu, why did you betray me!"
Hayasaka Ai comforted Fujiwara Chika, who was still clinging to her... After all, her usual ranking basically stayed around 110.
Not entering the ranks of honor students, nor being specially focused on due to poor grades.
But in this exam, Hayasaka Ai obviously underestimated the difficulty of the exam and overestimated the other candidates.
If looking only at the score, Hayasaka Ai was about the same as before, but she couldn't help that everyone else's scores had dropped... so she surged to the eighties.
Fujiwara Chika stood up, "I'm sorry to everyone, I'm sorry to Kaguya-san who helped me with tutoring, I want to go home and die for a bit..."
Ishigami Yu couldn't hold back a laugh. "Please don't actually die~"
The one with the worst grades used to be Ishigami Yu, and Fujiwara Chika always used him as an example. Now he had finally turned things around!
Uchiha Ryo glanced at Fujiwara Chika, who had her head down and was about to walk out the door, and continued.
"To celebrate, we plan to form a group and go to the countryside to play for two days and two nights this Friday. You all have time, right? The Student Council side can also take the opportunity to discuss the upcoming Hoshin Festival."
Fujiwara Chika quickly ran back, "Me! I want to go! I want to go!"
Ishigami Yu muttered softly. "Useless at everything else, but first place in eating, drinking, and playing..."
"What's wrong with eating, drinking, and playing? I want to!" Fujiwara Chika glared at a certain someone! Then she gave a light snort.
Uchiha Ryo stroked his chin. "Don't say that either. When it comes to eating, Fujiwara-san can't compare to our Hana. When it comes to drinking, she can't outdrink Hiratsuka-sensei. When it comes to playing games, she can't beat Ishigami..."
"As for having fun—"
Fujiwara Chika turned and bolted out the door— "Uwaaah! You're all targeting me."
Uchiha Ryo shouted from behind. "Don't forget to pack your things, we're leaving that afternoon."
