Can Soma really cut it in a place that prides itself on a 10 percent graduation rate? And can he convince the beautiful, domineering heiress of the school that he belongs there at all?! In stage three of the advancement exams, Soma must beat the new Council of Ten's ninth seat--and it's Akira Hayama?!
