章 29: Chapter 29. Entrance Exam.
"So unfair..."
Midoriya Izuku, with a bitter face, found out about the change in the U.A. High School entrance exam allowing equipment and tools a week ago online. But since it wasn't a big change, it didn't attract much attention, and Izuku was too busy preparing for the exam to keep up with the news.
But now, it's too late to go back home to get equipment. Midoriya had prepared for this exam!
Present Mic announced the exam rules: eliminate the robots acting as enemies, using a point system. After knowing the exam project, Shinso Hitoshi also looked very upset.
Robots as enemies were useless against his "Brainwashing" Quirk. Even though he recently trained at the Bajiquan Dojo, Shinso's actual combat ability was still very limited, which was a pity...
Compared to Midoriya and Shinso, Ojiro Mashirao was much more confident... After all, he had been learning martial arts from his father for many years, and with his physical Quirk, he was good at hand-to-hand combat.
There were several exam venues, and U.A. randomly assigned students to different venues. This time, Midoriya, Shinso, and Ojiro were unlucky and were assigned to different venues.
Riding the bus within U.A. High School, Midoriya Izuku arrived at his exam venue.
"So big..."
Midoriya's mouth twisted a bit. Although he had read a lot of news about U.A. High School online, seeing it in person made him realize how wealthy the best hero school in Japan was!
The so-called "simulated street" was a large area enclosed by high walls, with streets inside that looked just like those in a city. It was almost as big as the entire campus of the middle school Izuku used to attend.
And hearing what "Voice Hero" Present Mic said, there were several such large exam venues. At this moment, Midoriya understood just how impressive the best hero school in Japan was.
After the candidates got off the bus, some were as shocked by U.A.'s wealth as Izuku, some were nervous about the upcoming exam, and others were full of confidence...
"What are you daydreaming about? The test has no countdown, run! Run!!"
When Present Mic suddenly shouted this through the broadcast, all the candidates were stunned... then they all rushed towards the exam venue!
"You can't play with people like this!!"
Leading the charge was Midoriya Izuku. His long-term training had made his physical abilities far exceed those of ordinary people. There was also another boy with glasses sprinting ahead, even faster than Midoriya. His Quirk seemed to be engine propulsion.
After entering the venue, the simulated streets were filled with various types of robots. Midoriya estimated... he could do it!
Most of the robot enemies were 2-3 meters tall, designed with tracks or multiple legs for stability, and used cameras to lock onto people.
Without hesitation, Midoriya Izuku charged straight at a robot enemy.
"Increase speed to boost impact..."
He silently recited the trick taught by Master Ojiro, a move that allowed Midoriya's middle school physique to exert maximum power.
"Aim for the enemy's weak spot..."
As he sprinted at high speed, Midoriya targeted the spot where the robot enemy was most likely to fall!
"Attack with full force!"
With a fierce collision, Midoriya Izuku used the "Iron Mountain Lean" he had trained for ten months, crashing into the robot enemy. The robot's armor caved in, and it fell to the ground with parts flying everywhere.
"Yes!"
Happy that he successfully defeated the enemy, Midoriya clutched his right arm in pain. After all, it was a collision between flesh and steel, and there was no way to avoid the reaction force.
"Next one..."
No time to waste, Midoriya Izuku immediately looked for the next robot enemy target. This was an all-out exam.
Ten minutes wasn't long. Midoriya used all his strength and barely managed to defeat a few enemies. At this moment, Todoroki suddenly caused a commotion that shook the entire simulated street.
"What's going on!?"
With a look of horror, Midoriya saw a giant robot enemy, tens of meters tall, suddenly appear. The buildings on the street were pushed aside like blocks.
"Is this the zero-point enemy that the 'Voice Hero' mentioned..."
Seeing the giant enemy that toppled buildings like blocks, Midoriya recalled that Present Mic had mentioned four types of enemies. This giant robot was clearly the zero-point enemy that hadn't appeared before...
He turned around and ran!
Fight this monster? No way!!
Midoriya Izuku was so scared that cold sweat broke out. Even with gloves, he was no match for this giant enemy...
"Ouch..."
Hearing a girl's voice behind him, Midoriya looked back and saw the girl with tea-colored hair he had met at the U.A. gate.
It seemed that the giant robot had collapsed a building, and she was trapped under a pile of rubble, with the giant enemy approaching.
Without hesitation, and without even thinking, Midoriya Izuku turned and sprinted towards her with all his might.
He recalled what Master Ojiro had told him: the Iron Mountain Lean could be used to deliver the strongest impact with the whole body or a concentrated attack with the elbow.
When the giant mock enemy was about to step on the brown-haired girl, Midoriya got there first and used his "Iron Mountain Lean: Elbow Strike"!
The biggest piece of rubble on the girl was knocked away, and Midoriya grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the rubble.
Before the girl could react, Midoriya put her on his back and sprinted away just as the giant mock enemy was about to step on them!
He ran far away in one go, and the ten-minute exam time ended. The giant mock enemy also stopped its rampage.
"What is U.A. High School doing!? This is too dangerous!!"
Panting heavily, Midoriya was rarely this angry. Even though this was the school he wanted to get into, having such a dangerous exam was really inappropriate.
"Um... can you put me down?"
The brown-haired girl on Midoriya's back blushed. Although she was saved by Midoriya, she felt a bit embarrassed being carried.
"Oh! Sorry!!"
Realizing he still had someone on his back, Midoriya carefully placed the girl on the damaged mock enemy armor, which was smooth enough to sit on.
Since the girl was trapped under the rubble earlier, Midoriya didn't know if her foot was injured.
"Thank you!"
"It's nothing, didn't you help me at the school gate~."
Even though Midoriya said this, the girl found it hard to speak, and the atmosphere became a bit awkward...
"Um, my name is Uraraka Ochako. Can you tell me your name?"
"Yes, my name is Midoriya Izuku."
After exchanging names, a U.A. High School teacher, the professional hero "Recovery Girl," arrived. Despite her hero name, she was actually an elderly lady.
After the exam, "Recovery Girl" treated the injured students in the mock street one by one. Her Quirk was a type of accelerated healing.
After Uraraka Ochako's injured leg was healed, Midoriya Izuku left. He still didn't know how Shinso and Ojiro did in the exam.
