"Heh heh."
Seeing the gazes of the Advanced Nurturing High School crowd, Tenya naturally understood what they were thinking.
A honey trap, huh.
Come quickly. The more, the merrier.
"That guy…"
"He wants to take the opportunity to flirt with more girls again." Yuki squinted, as if she saw through everything.
Having personally visited Advanced Nurturing High School, she knew how fierce the class battles were there. Some time ago, in order to get information from Tenya, each class had sent beautiful girls to have a multi-person date with him.
"Блин." (Damn it.)
"He went to Advanced Nurturing High School to discuss the event, but how did he end up talking to so many girls?" Alisa puffed out her cheeks in anger.
"That's just Tenya-kun's personality." Maria sighed helplessly.
"Class competition? It feels like Advanced Nurturing High School's classes are very volatile." Yui, who was good at reading the atmosphere, vaguely noticed some clues.
"Really?! It looks very interesting." Yumiko looked very excited.
"Bringing in outside help? If the Service Club is invited, we will also participate in the action." Yukino showed a hint of interest.
"This game setting, it actually doesn't have magic." Rikka looked a little disappointed.
"It's because it is mainly based on physical actions, human technology is truly marvelous." Rukia was very interested. After all, such fun things couldn't be seen in Soul Society.
"I heard that points can be exchanged for yen?" Saki developed a strong interest.
"There are no strange existences. This world is too clean." Miko rubbed her eyes, a brilliant smile blooming on her face.
In reality, one or two strange monsters would occasionally pop out, which was an eyesore.
"Compared to this, shouldn't we try to experience the food in the game?" Hana's eyes lit up, this was an inspiration belonging to a foodie.
"Um…"
"Did you guys notice? It seems like many girls from Advanced Nurturing High School are staring at Tenya-kun."
Megumi spoke calmly, instantly causing many girls from Sobu High School to explode.
"What?!"
"Where?"
Eriri instantly became shocked.
"What do you mean 'where'? Isn't it everywhere? Seriously, are all of Advanced Nurturing High School a bunch of burglars? To covet outsiders like this." Utaha used her sharp tongue.
"Tsk. What does that have to do with me? Saika, you'd look so cute in a Christmas outfit." Hachiman didn't pay attention to the activity at all, his gaze was entirely on the angel beside him.
"Mmm. If Hachiman says so, I'll be shy too. But the Christmas outfit prop seems to be a prize from a certain arena." Saika did not refuse his suggestion.
"What arena? I will immediately win it for you." Hachiman gained fierce fighting spirit for once.
...
Arena No. 1: Off-road racing.
Advanced Nurturing High School's A, B, C, and D Classes competed on the same stage. Sobu High School sent a few people to act as external aid.
'Unable to accelerate, this should be the game's parameter setting for each character.' Ayanokōji came from the White Room and had undergone extremely rigorous physical training.
If he were to go all out, no one would be able to outrun him. However, such a physical advantage could not be utilized in the game.
"Interesting. Although I can't show off my overwhelming speed, the experience of manipulating a gamified body is quite an interesting way to play." Koenji combed his hair and looked in the mirror as usual.
"Kei, you don't look nervous at all, are you that confident?" Maya of the gyaru group was very curious about this.
"I just happen to be good at games." Kei gave an awkward smile, but her face held a hint of guilt.
In order to experience the game's gameplay in advance, she had paid with her precious first experience. However, it wasn't a loss either.
"Kushida too, she looks very skilled." Satsuki was also very curious.
"No, I just happen to know how to play." Kushida smiled happily, but in her heart, she couldn't help but recall the scene that day when Tenya held her bud. She had also paid a price.
"Airi, are you okay?"
"Um... I feel great, it's exceptionally easy to run."
Haruka and Airi both had F-class bazookas, which caused great wind resistance when running. However, in the game's 3D model, there were no wind resistance parameters set.
"Oh no! Why do I feel like I'm not running fast at all? This damn game!" Ken was a typical brawn-over-brains type, who originally wanted to perform well in sports competitions.
But if all the character parameters in the game were the same, how could he outrun others?
"Ryuen, what should we do? Our sports faction can't show their strength."
Most of Class C were students good at sports, and they were severely restricted.
"Tsk!"
"If everyone's character parameters are the same, then go interfere with other people's races. In short, we must drag everyone else down at all costs." Ryuen said coldly.
"I'll go keep an eye on Horikita of D Class." Mio was still resentful about her confrontation with Suzune.
"I have a feeling this arena isn't just about running. Everyone needs to be careful." Hiyori realized the problem.
Class B had the most united and friendly atmosphere.
"Everyone work hard together, just do your best."
Ichinose's call was met with a resounding response.
A Class was ready for battle.
"Sakayanagi, you're participating too?" Masumi was very surprised.
"Why can't I participate? In the game, my character parameters are consistent with yours."
Arisu didn't need to use a cane, and her movements were no different from a normal healthy person.
"Sakayanagi, you've had multiple contacts with Yoshida. Have you managed to extract any useful information?" Kōhei asked.
"How rude, Katsuragi-san. Tenya-kun and I are in love, so why would we talk about such boring information?" Arisu dropped a bombshell as soon as she spoke.
"Eh?!"
"Sakayanagi-san, are you dating Yoshida-san?"
Everyone in A Class was shocked. In their eyes, Arisu was a highly intelligent woman who excelled at manipulating others. Love-struck girlish behavior shouldn't appear on her.
"But, I heard he's very close with Ichinose of B Class."
"What? I saw him with Shiina of Class C."
"I saw him too. He was with Karuizawa, Horikita, Kushida, Sakura, Hasebe of D Class."
The more everyone spoke, the more outrageous it became, each staring at the other with wide eyes.
"It's fine. It's normal for an excellent man to have a few maids around him."
"I just need to firmly secure my position as the main wife."
Arisu believed she had already made it to base, having extreme confidence in herself.
"Sakayanagi, sometimes, I really don't know where your mysterious confidence comes from." Masumi retorted.
"Kamuro-san, don't worry, you will be a dowry, riding alongside me." Arisu said with a smile.
"Hey!"
"Dowry… What do you mean by that?" Masumi's eyes widened.
"Oh my. Does Kamuro-san not want to?" Arisu retorted.
"Who would want that?!"
Masumi stubbornly retorted, then quickly changed the subject, saying, "The game is about to start, let's not talk about these pointless things."
"Both sides prepare, begin!"
Tenya and Yuki, acting as joint administrators, stood on a high platform, issuing commands.
The participating players below rushed out in a swarm. However, due to their unfamiliarity with the game characters' movements, many people stumbled after only a few steps, looking very disheveled.
"Yuki, make it harder for them." Tenya watched the show leisurely.
"Your methods of playing pranks are quite something." Yuki said this, but her face was full of smiles.
With her mischievous personality, she loved playing pranks. Through administrator privileges, Yuki set up rolling logs and falling rocks on both sides of the track.
