The human cable car

"Class monitor, aren't we being a bit too conspicuous?" Yaoyorozu said helplessly to Jilan, listening to the whistling wind beside him.

"You arrived a bit late; you didn't see a single girl from the Support Course. That's what you call ostentatious," Jilan Jiyu retorted. Looking at the approaching stone pillar, he narrowed his eyes slightly and whispered, "Yaoyorozu!"

A palm-sized iron plate instantly appeared in Yaoyorozu's hand. Although it wasn't a shoddy construction project, the hastily made stone pillars were not sturdy.

Yaoyorozu held a simple catapult in his hand. After aiming, he easily shot the iron plate into the stone wall. Jilan Jiyu kicked the iron plate hard and used the momentum to jump onto the stone pillar.

Looking at the finish line not far ahead, Jilan Jiyu put down the Yaoyorozu, turned to her and said, "We're not far from the finish line, let's go."

"Wait, let me catch my breath." Yaoyorozu waved his hand, put his hands on his hips, lowered his head and laughed, "Class monitor, you really know how to play, you even came up with this method."

Jilan Jiyu looked at the mountaineering manuscript in their hands and the roller skates tied together, shrugged and smiled, "Maybe it's just that I prefer playing games."

"Wow, listeners, did you see that? With Jilan and Yaoyorozu's perfect teamwork, they successfully reached the penultimate foothold, just one step away from the exit! Let's take another look at their amazing performance!"

Hearing the cheers from the crowd, Mic pressed the replay button, and the scene of Jilan and Yaoyorozu at the Qidian line reappeared on the big screen.

The drone zoomed in on their overhead view, revealing colorful mosaics on the chest of the Yaoyorozu, which, a few seconds later, revealed its true form: a mountaineering pick and a pulley system loaded with gears.

Jilan took the two items, put them together, squatted down and gestured to Yaoyorozu. Then, Yaoyorozu awkwardly climbed onto Jilan's back and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Amidst the gasps of the audience, Jilan Jiyu leaped into the air, their hands gripping both ends of the climbing mantle and precisely wedging themselves onto the steel wire!

Next, the pulley system started running automatically, like a cable car carrying the two of them towards the stone pillar. When they got close to the stone pillar, the pulley system slowed down. Yaoyorozu took the opportunity to conjure something in his palm that was big enough for Jilan to step on and pierced the rock wall. Jilan instantly stepped on it and leaped up to the top of the stone pillar.

"I think you're all a bit confused, right? Well then, we'll start by talking about their Quirk!" Mic knew that anyone who was interested could find out about their Quirk, so he might as well just say it outright.

"Yaoyorozu's Quirk is Creation. He can create anything he can understand. It's an all-powerful Quirk. No wonder he's one of the recommended students, just like Todoroki!"

"Jilan was the top scorer in our Hero Course entrance exam. His Quirk is Hamon, a very versatile Quirk, and his strength goes without saying!"

"When these two exceptionally talented students came together, they sparked a burst of creative thinking. Using a mountaineering pick to hold the steel wire in place, and with Jilan's Quirk making the gears move, plus the pulley system to change the direction of the force, they successfully overcame this challenge. Let's cheer for their creativity!"

Watching their actions, Shota Aizawa muttered to himself, "This must be Lara's ability from the Tomb Raider series... Who among them actually likes playing this game from half a century ago?" The answer was obvious; Aizawa had already guessed it.

Having successfully landed on solid ground, Jilan Jiyu put down the Yaoyorozu on her back. Although her chest was pressed against his back, he didn't feel much because her arms were wrapped around his neck, making it a little difficult for him to breathe.

Furthermore, Jilan had expended so much energy trying to keep her eyes glued to Yaoyorozu's hands that she felt nothing but tiredness.

But...

"Yaoyorozu? You're surprisingly heavy!"

Yaoyorozu has a well-proportioned figure that is pleasing to the eye, but according to Jilan Jiyu's physical examination, her weight should be around 65kg, which is similar to the weight of an adult male.

When Jilan Jiyu said that, Yaoyorozu's face instantly turned red. "That's because of my Quirk that I store fat!"

"Yes, yes..." Jilan Jiyu Yu replied perfunctorily, looking towards the cliff area. When she and Yaoyorozu finished, the person who started ahead of her had only climbed halfway up, and she could vaguely see a pink ball wriggling on the wire.

Momo Yaoyorozu was initially indignant because Jilan talked about her weight, glanced at the people behind her and couldn't help but sigh, "If I hadn't been working with you, I'd probably be among those people right now..."

Jilan Jiyu started running. "If we don't run now while we have the chance, when will we ever get another chance?"

Jilan Jiyu ran for a while and were puzzled when they saw that Yaoyorozu hadn't caught up. They turned their heads at a corner but still couldn't see her.

With Shoto Todoroki, Katsuki Bakugo, Tenya Iida, Mei Hatsume, Asui, and others standing in front of him, if these results were used, he should be around tenth place.

Based on the events of previous Sports Festival, the number of people advancing from the first round should be between 40 and 50, so I'm pretty sure I'll advance to the second round. With that in mind, Jilan Jiyu slowed down and started running at a steady pace, maintaining their breathing.

Since the time interval between the first and second levels is unknown, it is necessary to conserve as much stamina as possible.

Suddenly, Jilan felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned his head in slight surprise and found that Yaoyorozu was smiling with his hands behind his back and his feet on roller skates, following behind him at a leisurely pace, without any intention of speeding up.

"... Why didn't you use this sooner if you were able to make it?" Jilan Jiyu rolled her eyes as she continued running.

"Although I let Uraraka and the others use it before, I didn't think of it at first..." Yaoyorozu said frankly without any embarrassment, "I should thank you, because you've helped me understand some things."

"What have you figured out? Is it the reason you weigh more than me?"

Yaoyorozu knew that with her current ranking, advancing would be effortless, so she relaxed. Remembering what Nakiri had told her before, she slid down to be level with Jilan and gestured between Jilan's head and her own body.

"What do you want to do?" Although he didn't understand the meaning behind her actions, it made Jilan feel uncomfortable, and he asked with dissatisfaction.

Yaoyorozu suddenly had the urge to tease Jilan, and she said with a smile, "Class president, no, Jilan, so you're not even as tall as me after all."

"Ugh." Jilan suddenly felt as if a knife had been plunged into her heart.

All Might had previously mentioned that he wasn't tall enough, but in Jilan's mind, All Might was an exception. He was currently 172cm tall, which was neither tall nor short in his class, but he was still a few centimeters shorter than Yaoyorozu, the tallest girl in the class.

As everyone knows, there are two taboos that cannot be mentioned: a girl's weight and a boy's height. Obviously, after Jilan Jiyu violated the first taboo, Yaoyorozu maliciously brought up the second taboo, and the problem is that Jilan Jiyu has no way to refute it.

"I'm sorry, please forgive me..."

He apologized very readily.
