The silver-haired beauty narrowed her eyes, as if about to say something terrifying. Ebert was momentarily stunned by the girl’s imposing aura.
However, after a brief pause, he forced himself to calm down, coughed twice, and then asked, “So… what are your conditions? Hmph… If it’s money you want, just say it, but don’t make the amount too outrageous…”
“Don’t worry, I’m not short on money—someone takes care of me. But, Ebert, since you were the one who suggested a bet that could destroy my career, you shouldn’t expect my terms to be anything but outrageous!”
“Actually, it’s simple: if you lose, I want Class 25 and Class 3 to exchange all their teaching resources!”
“Ex… Exchange resources?!”
Ebert blinked in confusion, clearly not comprehending what Keti meant at first. The silver-haired beauty sighed helplessly, not expecting that she’d have to explain even this. Seriously, can’t he figure it out?
Wasn’t this guy just going on about how elite classes deserve the best resources?
Hah, Keti knew all too well—those top student classes, even just their classrooms are so much better equipped than the regular classes, not to mention the exclusive, high-end cafeteria, and all the dining, entertainment, and study facilities they enjoy. Studying in that environment is practically a luxury.
What’s more, the teachers for the elite classes get extra teaching points—much more, in fact!
Just these advantages alone, especially the last one about teaching points, were enough for Keti to make up her mind to take this bet.
Anyway… her goal was already to win the championship. Since she was determined to succeed and never lose, this bet was just another goal to complete along the way.
As long as she trained her students well in this greenhouse fortress, she would definitely succeed!
Believing firmly in this, Keti showed a confident smile, narrowed her eyes, and said, “You still don’t get it? To put it simply, it’s an exchange of treatment, an exchange of privileges…”
“If you lose, then Class 25 becomes the new elite class and enjoys all the benefits that come with it, like the daily teaching points for assistant teachers and student privileges!”
“All the resources will go to us! And as for the regular class status that used to belong to Class 25, from now on, it’ll be taken by your Class 3. Am I clear enough?”
“Uh… this… this…”
After hearing the girl’s rather provocative and excessive demand, Ebert nervously swallowed.
This… how could he possibly agree to such a thing—just giving up all the perks of the elite class for nothing? That was too much…
“That’s impossible! Even if I agreed, the school would never approve such an outrageous result. No one’s ever made such a request before—exchanging privileges has no precedent!”
“Hmph, if there’s no precedent, how can you be so sure the school will oppose it? As long as you’re willing to cooperate, I think the school will allow such a small bet for those who agree to accept the outcome.”
“Besides, it’s just swapping the class benefits—at worst, you’ll just get a new classroom. I’m not interested in the title of Class 3 anyway, so you can just take the class plaque with you~”
The silver-haired beauty tilted her head again. Come on, this is her biggest chance to rack up daily teaching points!
Keti, who had just thought of this idea, was worried that this guy would back out, so she immediately used a bit of provocation:
“Hmph… What’s the matter, Uncle Ebert? With that constipated look on your face, don’t tell me… you’re scared? Didn’t you just say this was a victory delivered right to your door? What, you don’t even dare to face a rookie assistant teacher like me?!”
“You… what nonsense! Why would I be afraid of you?!”
Just as expected, with a single sentence, Ebert instantly lost his composure and flew into a rage, breathing heavily, and then agreed on the spot!
“Fine… Then it’s a deal! Heh… On second thought, there’s nothing to worry about—there’s no way you could ever beat me. So even if you asked me for the moon, it wouldn’t matter! Keti, right? Just wait until after the Freshman Competition, pack up and get lost!”
“Hmph, then the bet is set… Enough, since that’s settled, don’t try to mess things up anymore. No matter what you say, this C Training Zone is already reserved by me, so please leave now!”
Keti put on a nonchalant expression, unconcerned by his taunts—or perhaps it was just self-consolation on his part?
But then, Ebert’s next words suddenly threw Keti off balance.
“Huff… Hmph, you almost tricked me there! Let me leave? Sorry, the bet is one thing, but the venue is another. Miss Keti, you keep talking about ‘reserving’—you submitted that so-called reservation request to Director Richard, right?”
Ebert suddenly let out a cold laugh. That confident look on his face made Keti sense that something was off, and her heart instantly filled with unease.
Still, outwardly, the silver-haired beauty had to keep calm. She frowned and continued, “That’s right, that’s why I said I’ve already reserved it. Is there a problem?”
“Hmph, of course there’s a problem! It’s simple—you only submitted the request, but where’s the approval?”
“Did you think that handing in the form meant the reservation was guaranteed? Seems… you didn’t know, huh? And you didn’t even show the approval letter. Sorry, but that’s not enough…”
“Eh? There’s… there’s also an approval letter?!”
Keti stared blankly, blinking. “When I went to Director Richard, he… he… he didn’t say anything. He just took my application and let me leave!”
“Pfft… Probably, the wise Director Richard couldn’t be bothered to explain it to you. Unfortunately, for this Freshman Competition, the school has already made arrangements.”
“Only elite class students can use the greenhouse fortress’s training grounds, and Class 3 is assigned to the C Training Zone, so… the ones who should leave are you! If you don’t believe me, you can check again with Director Richard…”
Ugh.
Director Richard! That damned Director!!!
Keti bit her lip in anger on the spot. After a moment, she took a deep breath, turned to Layla, Ximon and the others, and called out, “Let’s go. Hah, it’s just a change of location, that’s all.”
“Too bad, all the other training zones are already reserved, Miss Keti. Still want to go through with the bet?”
“Tch, do you think I’d give up just because of a training venue?”
Keti narrowed her eyes and shot him a glare. This guy is really underestimating her!
