The Venue is Underway

Yang Xiao saw Izuku Midoriya not far ahead. He had no intention of going over to greet him and kept walking on his own.

"Move aside..."

As Yang Xiao was observing U.A. High School, a slightly hoarse voice came from behind him. He turned his head to see someone with khaki-colored hair, fluffy and spiky. It could only be Katsuki Bakugo.

Does this guy treat all strangers like this?

Yang Xiao thought to himself, but he still moved aside. There was no need to clash with Katsuki Bakugo; they would be classmates in the future.

Seeing that Yang Xiao had wisely moved out of the way, Katsuki Bakugo's eyes showed a hint of relief, and also a hint of confusion. However, he quickly put these aside and shouted at Izuku Midoriya ahead, "Get out of the way, you damn nerd!"

"Kacchan?" Izuku Midoriya recognized the voice. He turned around and saw Katsuki Bakugo walking towards him.

"Don't block my path, or I'll kill you!" Katsuki Bakugo said with a frown, his tone very aggressive.

However, this scene felt familiar to Yang Xiao. It was a very familiar opening, basically identical to what he had seen before.

"G-Good morning, let's do our best, we both..." Izuku Midoriya was flustered by Katsuki Bakugo as always. However, Katsuki Bakugo didn't even look at Izuku Midoriya and walked past him.

Clearly, some people around recognized Katsuki Bakugo as the protagonist of the Sludge Incident and looked at him with surprise.

But Katsuki Bakugo paid no attention to their gazes and continued walking forward on his own.

Yang Xiao didn't continue to pay attention to the two of them and walked forward.

The Hero Course at U.A. High School is a training school for those who wish to obtain the qualifications required to become a Pro Hero. It is the most popular in the country but also the most difficult.

Its competition rate exceeds 300 every year. The number one hero, All Might, who was nominated for the National Honor Award but firmly refused it.

The hero Endeavor, with the most case-solving records in history.

Crust, who has won Best Jeanist for eight consecutive years.

To become a great hero, graduating from U.A. is a prerequisite, which is why so many people flock here, even if it means fighting tooth and nail to get into this high school.

Yang Xiao walked into the venue with the crowd. The location of the venue was open to those who came for the assessment. Yang Xiao knew that Present Mic would conduct the pre-assessment mobilization.

Present Mic is an English teacher at U.A. High School, also known as the "Voice Hero." He was a classmate of Shota Aizawa during their student days.

He served as the live commentator during the entrance exam and the Sports Festival. He likes to call students "listeners" and has a fatal weakness: he is particularly afraid of insects.

After finding a random seat, Yang Xiao leaned back lazily and waited for Present Mic. The people around him were all strangers, mostly background characters. Yang Xiao had no intention of interacting with them...

Wait...

Yang Xiao hadn't seen clearly who was beside him earlier. Now, as this person turned his head, Yang Xiao immediately recognized him. No, he not only recognized him but was also very familiar with him.

It's Tenya Iida!

His personality is extremely serious. During the entrance exam practical, he strongly disapproved of and reprimanded Izuku Midoriya for speaking softly. In class, he also strongly disapproved of Katsuki Bakugo resting his feet on the desk and intervened. He immediately recognized his own mistakes and apologized. His excessive seriousness even made his walking posture strange.

In short, Tenya Iida is a very serious person, sometimes rigid, or stubborn.

Tenya Iida glanced at Yang Xiao and then didn't pay any more attention. Yang Xiao also had no intention of greeting Tenya Iida. Everything would happen naturally; there was no need to get overly excited upon their first meeting.

"To all the aspiring listeners, welcome to my live broadcast today."

Once everyone was in the venue, Present Mic walked out. The first words he spoke made it seem as if the venue was his stage, and all eyes were focused on him.

Before this, Yang Xiao had observed the people around him, scanning almost everyone. He hadn't found any other transmigrators among them, meaning he might be the only one entering U.A. High School.

The other three transmigrators might be abroad, in another faction, or perhaps they entered U.A. High School through a recommendation?

Yang Xiao didn't care about these for now. As long as other transmigrators entered U.A. High School, it meant they were on the same side, so there was no need to worry.

If no other transmigrators entered U.A. High School, it would also be fine. Yang Xiao could develop slowly and, at the same time, inquire about the whereabouts of the other three. However, Yang Xiao knew that it would be much easier for the other three transmigrators to find his whereabouts.

"Everybody. Say. Hey."

Present Mic picked up the microphone and said this phrase in English to everyone, expecting a response. To his surprise, no one replied.

"So boring..." Present Mic shrugged and continued, "Now, my aspiring listeners, I will briefly explain the practical test outline."

In essence, all applicants will participate in a 10-minute [Battle Center simulation]. They can bring any items they wish, and everyone will be sent to their designated simulation venue.

The simulation venue will be equipped with three types of numerous [Villains]. Corresponding points will be assigned based on their respective [difficulty levels].

The goal is to defeat the [Villains] using one's own [Quirk] and earn points.

Attacking other examinees, an act contrary to the spirit of heroism, is strictly prohibited.

As Present Mic was explaining this, Tenya Iida, sitting next to Yang Xiao, suddenly spoke loudly, "I have a question, may I ask it?"

Even though Yang Xiao knew Tenya Iida would say something like this, he was still startled. How could this guy's voice be so loud? His ears were suffering sitting next to him.

"OK!" Present Mic agreed to Tenya Iida's request. A spotlight instantly shone on Tenya Iida, and everyone turned to look at him.

Yang Xiao shifted his butt slightly to the side, moving further away from Tenya Iida. At this moment, Tenya Iida held up a pamphlet and said, "There are four types of villains listed on the pamphlet. If there is an error in the record, it would be a great disgrace to U.A., the number one school in the Island Nation. We examinees are here to seek guidance from model heroes."

Tenya Iida suddenly changed his tone, turned around, and pointed at Izuku Midoriya, saying loudly, "By the way, you, curly-haired classmate!"

"Huh?" Izuku Midoriya pointed at himself awkwardly, as if asking, "Are you talking about me?"

Tenya Iida was clearly referring to Izuku Midoriya. "You've been mumbling since just now. You're too unfocused. If you're here to sightsee, then please leave immediately."

Izuku Midoriya immediately covered his mouth. He hadn't expected to make a fool of himself on his first day at U.A. High School. It was so embarrassing.

Although Yang Xiao was well aware of Tenya Iida's personality, he was still moved by his serious attitude. This guy was truly a die-hard stubborn person, rigid yet cute, a cute boy in his seriousness.
