Izuku flew past the competition before flying into the open gate of the arena and immediately incapacitating one of the robots with a flaming chop. He could distantly hear the other examinees closing in and decided to cut through an alley and try to look for less congested areas to fight the robots in. As people started to file in Izuku began to indiscriminately exterminate the robots around him. Because he attacked the robots on the edge there were fewer robots to fight, however, there were also fewer examinees to compete against not that they would be having much of a chance now. Izuku was working through robots when he came across an examinee that seemed to be struggling to beat the robots and was surrounded by three of them.
Izuku was going to leave the kid to his own devices, but then he'd be no better than the guys that made fun of him all day. Izuku surged forward and slammed the first two robots into the ground with flaming arms and kicked the third in its weak spot. Izuku gave the kid a once over and to sum up his findings he was disappointed. The kid was scrawny to say the least and he didn't seem to have anything that looked like a muscle on him. He looked a bit rough up too, so Izuku decided to give the kid some advice, so he didn't die.
"Each of the robots have a specific weak spot. If you watch the way they approach, it will become pretty obvious." Izuku took a quick look around before finding an acceptable target. He sliced a nearby stop sign with his flames before holding it out in front of the kid.
The guy looked at it apprehensively before taking it. "The way I cut it should give you some offense and defense to at least get some points. Don't get yourself killed out there." And with that Izuku flew off into the distance to try and secure some more points and get an idea of how others were doing.
The UA staff watch on eagerly as the potential students worked through the entrance exam. There were a few students that had already been disqualified due to unheroic conduct, and a few who didn't seem like they had a chance at UA at all. They looked on as two students clearly stood out. A blonde in arena A that seemed to clearly have some kind of explosive quirk, and a boy with green hair who seemed to have some type of fire quirk.
"Offensively speaking those two seem to be in a class of their own, but there a lot of hopeful candidates who could absolutely make the cut." Said the pro hero Midnight. Some of the other pro heroes nodded in agreement trying to take in as much information as possible from the multiple flashing screens. The principal had a bright grin as a blonde skeleton looked on interestedly. He would later this year be on as the first year's heroics teacher. He would have to manage teaching them and training his successor.
Considering that he could only do hero work for three hours a day these days, he could probably manage that. Principal Nedzu then pulled out button and across every arena emerged a giant robot.
Izuku was loosely focusing on destroying all the robots that came to him, but he kept getting distracted by some of the other competitors biting off more than they could chew. They obviously didn't have quirks that helped with fighting robots. Keeping them from getting hurt wouldn't affect his chances too badly. At worst he wouldn't get the first spot in the exam, but it didn't matter where he placed as long as he made it in.
As he reached the middle area where most of the others were taking the exam, he finally had a chance to take notice of some of the others' quirk. There was a kid with black hair who was literally carving through the robots bare handed. The blue haired kid seemed to have engines on his legs that he was using to propel himself forward and carve through the robots, and gravity girl was letting robots crush each other.
Present Mic called that there was five minutes left and everyone began to pick up their efforts. Robot parts were flying left and right and suddenly there was a deep rumbling. The mother of all robots emerged from deep within the city heading dead for the area all the examinees.
Izuku could see the robot from his vantage point and the path of destruction it left in its wake. Many of the students took off running immediately, abandoning the robots in front of them to attempt to grab more points from areas not affected by the robot. Since it was worth no points, Izuku was about to turn around and gather more points of his own before he heard a cry. Several cries.
An entire group of students had been trapped under rubble.
If you asked Uraraka Ochako how her day was going to go she wouldn't have thought much of it. Of course, she was nervous for the UA entrance exams, but she never thought that she would be in any real danger while she took it. Now her and tons of other students were stuck under rubble as a behemoth hurtled towards them. Nobody was turning around to help them. This was probably it.
All Might was panicking. He could come up with a few minutes to go save the kids in exam site B. No one else seemed to be worried about it at all. The other teachers were watching intently as if they were waiting on something to happen and he couldn't wait anymore. He burst up from his seat only for Principal Nedzu to put a hand on his arm to keep him from moving. Before he could speak Nedzu smiled and gestured to the screen in front of him.
Izuku, encompassed by flames, flew down to help the others. Flaming hands protruded from his body to assist in removing the rubble from the students. He moved the rubble as quickly as he could, but the robot was still barreling towards them. As the robot closed in, Izuku abandoned his efforts to quickly free the students and instead chose to take care of the robot. The zero pointer was massive, but he couldn't risk injuring any possible competitors surrounding.
The robot came flying forward and Izuku steadied his breathing before making an arc with his right arm. The arc resembled a sun over his head, and he focused on the oncoming form of the zero pointer as he crossed his arm behind his head.
"Iai Chop, Form Seven: Sun Wheel"
The zero pointer stopped its movement and suddenly was blown back by the overwhelming flames around him. The flames blew through the zero pointer and melted all its circuitry. In an instant the menacing bot was reduced to nothing but a giant metal statue. Izuku was thoroughly unimpressed, but maybe some of the remaining bots would be more fun.
"And that's time ladies and gentlemen"
An old lady with an oversized syringe in her hair and a cane started coming through towards the downed examinees. Izuku did his best to finish freeing them while she went through and healed them. Once he was sure everyone was free and in good hands, he returned to the locker room to get his things and returned to Asakusa.
