With the third term approaching, Ayanokouji and his classmates, having moved up from Class D to Class C, are heading out for a school camping trip. There, they face a special exam known as the "mixed training camp" in which all class years participate. As the name suggests, groups of men and women are created from students from all classes, and the individual groups are scored. The students all tremble as they're forced to work with students who were previously enemies to achieve high scores, facing the threat that any group that doesn't achieve a certain benchmark will be expelled! The tumultuous third term is about to begin!
