One week before the end of term test, Rikidou talks to Kouji about the end of term test, saying that it will be more difficult than the mid term tests. On the day of the exercise test, Mr. Principal reveals that Class 1-A will be fighting Yuuei's teachers in their exercise test.[4]

Rikidou is paired with Eijirou and they must face Cementoss in their test exercise. Rikidou, Eijirou and Cementoss arrive in an uninhabited city where their test exercise will take place. Cementoss explains the 30-minute test; Rikidou and Eijirou must either handcuff him or one of them must escape the battlefield within 30 minutes in order to win and pass the test. The test begins.[5]

Eijirou and Rikidou keep smashing their way through Cementoss' cement walls, but the more walls they destroy, the more walls Cementoss creates to keep them at bay. Cementoss tells Eijirou and Rikidou that their weakness is drawn out battles and advises the duo to push their strength to the limit. Eijirou and Rikidou are unable to get past Cementoss' walls by the time the End of Term Test finishes, and as a result, they fail.[6]
