Back in the classroom, Izuku Midoriya and Tenya Iida stood on the podium.

"So, next, we'll elect the other class representatives, but before that, I have something to say," Izuku Midoriya said nervously.

Tenya Iida stood beside Izuku Midoriya, looking at him with some confusion. Although the classmates might not be very familiar with each other yet, there was no need to be so nervous.

Everyone was looking at Izuku Midoriya at this moment, wondering what he wanted to say.

Finally, Izuku Midoriya made up his mind and looked at everyone, saying, "I think it would be better for Tenya Iida to be the class representative."

Tenya Iida was stunned and looked at Izuku Midoriya in surprise. He hadn't expected Izuku to say such a thing. He was fine being the vice class representative; there was no need to be the class representative.

"He can bring everyone together so coolly. I think it's most fitting for Iida to take on this role," Izuku Midoriya said, no longer nervous by the end.

"I think that's a pretty good idea. As Midoriya said, Iida's performance in the cafeteria was indeed outstanding," Eijiro Kirishima fully agreed with Izuku Midoriya, having witnessed it himself. "Besides, it felt like he merged with the emergency exit sign."

"This is a waste of time. Let's just get it over with," Shota Aizawa, still wrapped in his yellow sleeping bag, said, propping himself up to look at Izuku Midoriya.

Tenya Iida took a breath and looked at everyone, saying, "Since it's a class representative nomination, there's no other way. I, Tenya Iida, promise to wholeheartedly fulfill the duties of a class representative."

"Then it's all yours, Emergency Exit!" Eijiro Kirishima laughed.

"Emergency Exit Iida, do your best."

"Also, let's have Yaoyorozu Momo be the vice class representative," Izuku Midoriya added at the end.

"Huh? Why am I the vice class representative?" Yaoyorozu Momo looked at Izuku Midoriya in confusion.

"Since I'm not the class representative, the vice class representative naturally falls to you. After all, you're next after Iida," Izuku Midoriya said with a smile before walking off the stage. Yaoyorozu Momo had no choice but to go on stage and stand with Tenya Iida.

This was actually what she had in mind, but it was a bit of a regret not to be class representative. However, no matter how you looked at it, Tenya Iida was the best choice for class representative.

After school, Yang Xiao went to the Problem Solver as usual. Speaking of which, it was a fulfilling day. He woke up in the morning, went for a run, then went to school, and after school, he had to work at the Problem Solver without any rest.

However, school was a form of rest for Yang Xiao. It was relatively easy for now, although a few classmates were always watching him.

"Little Yang, the Problem Solver has run into some trouble recently, so I have to discuss it with you in advance."

As soon as Yang Xiao entered the Problem Solver, Wu Shiyin walked over, his expression somewhat solemn.

"What trouble?" Yang Xiao found that the Problem Solver had been dealing with a lot of things lately, with trouble popping up frequently.

"Lower the rolling shutter and come in," Wu Shiyin turned and walked into the inner room. After Yang Xiao lowered the rolling shutter, he also entered the inner room.

Upon reaching the core area, Toga Himiko was at her seat looking at documents. Her daily routine was longer than Yang Xiao's, so her work experience had caught up. Compared to her previous mistakes, she was much better now.

"Toga, pause for a moment. I have something to tell you both," Wu Shiyin clapped his hands and looked at the two.

"You guys talk first. I have a few things to handle and I'll be over in a few minutes," Toga Himiko said to Wu Shiyin.

"Alright, let's go in and talk, Little Yang." Wu Shiyin led the way into a small room. There were only four chairs in this room, which seemed to be a dedicated place for discussions.

"Sit down," Wu Shiyin gestured for Yang Xiao to sit. After Yang Xiao sat down, he looked at him and said, "Recently, an assassin organization has been targeting our Problem Solver, but they don't know our exact location. So, we have to strike first before they find us."

"What the heck, we're dealing with an assassin organization again?" Yang Xiao said speechlessly. "What can I help with? It's nothing more than real-time reporting."

"No, from now on, you will need to undergo training at the Problem Solver. Otherwise, when a crisis arises, you and Toga will be fodder for death. I don't want such a thing to happen to you."

Wu Shiyin's words made Yang Xiao freeze. He had expected the Problem Solver to train them, but he hadn't expected it to be so soon.

"You mean I'll have to participate in missions too?" Yang Xiao asked with a frown.

Wu Shiyin saw Yang Xiao's frown and said patiently, "I know what you're thinking. After all, you're a student and don't want to be involved in this kind of thing. I can understand that, but if you want to survive in this society, you can't do it without some skills."

"I accept. When will it start?" Since Wu Shiyin had already said so, Yang Xiao naturally agreed. One of the reasons he came to the core area of the Problem Solver was to train himself and become stronger.

However, Yang Xiao couldn't appear too eager, as if he desperately wanted the Problem Solver to train him. If he did, Wu Shiyin would definitely be suspicious of him.

Wu Shiyin didn't expect Yang Xiao to agree so quickly. Normally, students wouldn't have such courage, but Wu Shiyin thought about it and felt relieved. Once someone joined the core of the Problem Solver, it was almost impossible to leave unscathed.

Therefore, the only way was to improve their own strength. This was unavoidable.

At this moment, Toga Himiko also came in. Wu Shiyin repeated what he had just told Yang Xiao, and Toga Himiko also agreed.

Since Yang Xiao had agreed, she had no reason to disagree, because she knew she would only be stronger than Yang Xiao, not weaker.

"In that case, let's go to the training grounds. Don't underestimate the power of the Problem Solver," Wu Shiyin chuckled, then got up and let Yang Xiao and Toga follow.

The three of them left the Problem Solver and walked for a while in an alley. After passing a gutter, Wu Shiyin arrived in front of a house that was only ten square meters, very ordinary and dilapidated.

"Gin-san, why are you bringing us here?" Toga Himiko couldn't figure out why Wu Shiyin wanted to bring them here. This was clearly not a place for training.

"You'll know in a moment," Wu Shiyin smiled, took out a set of keys from his pocket, and opened the iron gate in front of them. After the three of them entered, they found another iron gate on the ground.

Yang Xiao immediately understood. The structure here was the same as the Problem Solver's. The secret places were all underground.

Once they understood this, both Toga Himiko and Yang Xiao felt that the Problem Solver was quite capable. At least being able to conceal these places in the real world was already very impressive.
