3rd Person POV
"And that's the gist of it," said Chabashira sensei, finishing her explanation.
The students of Class C were in a daze, processing what they just heard.
Hirata Yousuke raised his hand.
"Yes?"
"So what you are saying sensei...is that all of us will rate each other without any definite categories?" asked Hirata, incredulously. The class had the same thought.
"You are right. You could rate the other person out of 10 based on their first impressions, looks, abilites, or anything that comes to mind. It's completely up to you."
It was almost the end of their first year. Next week is the event selection exam. So the students were mentally preparing themselves for it. It was already a tense enough situation, when suddenly, an absurd task is given upon them. To rate the students among themselves based on anything.
"This game will be conducted in all three years and there won't be penalties as well."
Some students heaved a sigh of relief when she said that.
"However, the students with the highest average rating will be given private points as a reward."
There were murmurs inside the classroom.
"So...what is the amount?" Ike hesitantly asked.
Chabashira paused a bit before replying.
"One million points."
"WHAT?!"
It wasn't Ike who screamed, but his soon to be unfortunate friend, Yamauchi Haruki.
"Is something wrong?" Chabashira glared at him.
"U-uh no...I mean...isn't it kinda unfair?"
Everybody knew what he meant. Because every class had at least one popular person, it was easily predictable who would get the highest rating.
"It is, but think about it this way."
Everyone paid attention to her next words.
"You can make sure to get enough votes for your class from the whole school. If the number of students who passes the threshold is more than once in a single class, what do you think would happen?"
"....we would get more private points?" Kushida asked.
"Exactly. So this game is basically about which class secures the most amount of private points while rating each other."
There was now a wave of excitement among the students.
"Heck yeah, this will be fun!" Sudou exclaimed.
"I know right?"
"Those one million points are coming to me!"
"Yeah right. Have you seen your face?"
The increasing noise gradually died down when Chabashira signalled to stop.
"Now, I'll be explaining the rating system."

After class, everyone got ready to head to their clubs or hangouts.
Kiyotaka was packing up his stuff when the Ayanokoji group approached him.
"This exam is pretty interesting, right?" Haruka posed the question.
