Fumizuki Academy is not a traditional Japanese Secondary School. This unique institution has introduced a modern, groundbreaking method for sorting its students. Students take a test at the end of their freshmen year, which breaks the student body up. For the lowest of the lowest, the highest scorers are grouped into A class, all the way down to F level.Unfortunately for Akihisa Yoshii, his apparently "powerful" intelligence wasn't quite adequate for such a test, and he's now stuck at the bottom of the F class. Of course, F class has the worst facilities: not just rotting tatami mats and broken chairs, but also out - of-date equipment and worn out furnishings.
His pal Yuuji Sakamoto is in the same class on the other side, and to everyone's shock, the brilliant girl Mizuki Himeji even ended up in the same class on the day of the exam because of an unexpected fever.Unhappy with their perquisites, the F-class rallies behind Yuuji were eager to take on the higher-level classes and use the school's Examinations Summon Combat system to gain their advantages. Participants will summon fantasy characters whose power levels in an all-out battle are equivalent to their student's test scores. Will class F be able to rise to the top, or will they live up to standards of others and fail?
