Four years. No outside contact. One campus that feels like a city-and a system that rewards the brilliant and discards the weak. When a 14-year-old boy is accepted into the prestigious and mysterious Prestige Horizon Academy, he's filled with excitement. But that excitement quickly fades when he learns the truth: students are locked within the school for four years, cut off completely from the outside world. Their entire lives-money, privileges, and survival-depend on performance-based systems, hidden rules, and secret evaluations. Every student receives either a white or black phone, but no one explains the meaning. A payment app called POY determines their monthly allowance based on class performance, and failure in even a single test can lead to immediate expulsion. Some students seem to know more than others. Some appear too calm. And beneath the surface of luxurious classrooms, digital rulebooks, and perfect smiles... a deeper, more sinister design is at play. Inspired by Classroom of the Elite, Prestige Horizon explores themes of competition, control, psychological pressure, and social hierarchy in a closed, elite academic society where freedom is traded for status-and the cost of failure is absolute.

Author's Note: The story takes place at ANHS and if you ever wondered about the direction of this or whether you should treat this as the alternative to the canon Light Novel then no doubt about it, I didn't know either. However, the clear thing here is the story will follow en route of both Light Novel and Anime, with a bit of twist by adding the better elements which may vary depending on the way its narrative goes.
