Being with the rest of the class, Galadriel looked at the many screens that allowed them to visualize the future confrontation between the two teams.

" Bakugo...and Midoriya! This might be worth seeing. "

"I have a feeling this is going to be fun to watch, Gali. " Ashido affirmed, who was standing next to her.

"Fun isn't the right word." Galadriel retorted. "In truth, each of us should take advantage of the time, before the start of the match, to guess who will be the winner ! You, what is your opinion on the result of the match? "

"My opinion? Hmmm! I would say that Bakugo and Ida will be the winners! In the tests, they performed better than Ochako and Midoriya."

"It's true! But these tests were individual tests! Today's exercise is very different since it will force them to work as a team! And for this kind of exercise, I don't think that there is no worse partner than Bakugo."

"Maybe, but even if he was on his own, don't you think he'll be able to beat Midoriya and Ochako?"

"Ochako...that's for sure! Midoriya?"

Remaining silent for a few seconds, she finally declares.

"It will all depend on his willingness to show Bakugo that he is no longer the child he always knew."

" Huh ? "

Looking at one of the screens to see Midoriya and Ochako, walking cautiously, while the boy glanced around.

"Looks like he's scared." Ashido remarked.

"No! He just knows how Bakugo is going to attack him."

"Attack him?"

Suddenly, appearing in front of the duo, Bakugo rushed at Midoriya, to hit him with an explosive fist. Seeming to anticipate his attack, his target jumped aside, taking Ochako with him. Brushing only his mask, Bakugo growled as he punched a wall.

"An ambush?" Mineta wondered.

"BOOH ! Bakugo, stop acting like a coward." Kirishima shouted.

" Midoriya dodged very well. " Ashido remarked. " Gali, you guessed he was anticipating Bakugo's moves? "

"Midoriya...he analyzed All Might's every move, and knows his way of fighting perfectly! But he didn't just do that with him! He did the same with Bakugo."

Smiling, seeing Bakugo fighting Midoriya, she declared.

"Midoriya may have lost many battles but... he may be able to win the war."

Thus, she saw Midoriya hold Deku, so as to allow Ochako to go to where Ida and the bomb were. Then, engaging in a fight with Bakugo, Midoriya managed to dodge his attacks and overpower him. Quickly losing his temper, Bakugo let his anger control his actions, allowing Deku to better predict his movements.

"DEKU!" Bakugo roared, punching again into the void.

"Kacchan...I can predict your every attack." Midoriya assured, with a determined look. "I am no longer the whiny boy who followed you! Now I am able to fight you and I will defeat you."

Watching the fight without saying anything, Galadriel then glanced at another screen to see Ida, mopping the floor in the room where he was. Chuckling at first, at how ridiculous the thing was, Galadriel eventually realized how Ida was as good a strategist as Deku. Coming face to face with the motorized boy, Uraraka found herself unable to attack him, due to not having any objects to control with her Quirk.

"Ida...he figured out that Midoriya and Bakugo were going to fight! As a result, he just focused on Ochako's power and figured out how to neutralize it."

Suddenly new explosions captured her energy, while Bakugo completely destroyed the area where he was fighting with Deku.

"Damn it! Stop looking down on me and use your Quirk." The boy ordered, as Midoriya finally fled.

Seeing him pinned against a wall, Bakugo approached him, roaring.

"Are you trying to look down on me? Am I not strong enough for you to use your Quirk to defeat me?"

"Isn't that it?" Deku retorted, getting into a fighting stance. "I'm just waiting for the right time to use it."

"Right time? Are you kidding me?"

Running towards Deku, he roared.

"If you want to survive this battle, use the full power of your Quirk."

Then, aiming his arm at Deku, he created a long-range explosion in order to defeat him.

" It's finish. "

However, running towards him, Deku ended up clenching his fist, and let lines of light cover his arm.

"URARAKA! Get ready."

" Huh ? "

" DETROIT SMASH !"

Seeing Midoriya rush towards the explosion, Bakugo was then surprised to see his opponent aiming his fist at the ceiling, while letting the explosion hit him. The shock wave caused by Midoriya's punch managed to pulverize the ceiling as well as the floor of the floor above.

Enjoying seeing Bakugo's surprised face, Galadriel then saw Deku's attack destroying part of the floor, where Uraraka and Ida were. Taking advantage of the many debris that now covered the ground, Ochako levitated them, before throwing them towards Ida.

Attempting to destroy them, so as not to be hit, Ida ends up stopping, feeling Ochako pass him, before touching the bomb he was protecting.

"I have it." Uraraka rejoiced.

Meanwhile, staring at Midoriya, Bakugo had seen him position his second arm, in front of his face, to protect him. So even though the skin on his arm was charred, Deku was still standing.

"Kacchan...I won."

And, indeed, All Might's voice echoed throughout the building.

"Winner...Team A!"

Immediately, Bakugo fell to his knees.

" I lost ? "

Seeing this, Galadriel couldn't help but smirk.

" Bakugo...don't confuse 'being strong' with 'being invincible'. "

"WOW! Gali, you're really impressive." Ashido asserted. "You guessed what was going to happen."

"It was just a fluke." Galadriel said simply. "Also, if Deku had ultimately decided to flee, instead of fighting Bakugo, my assumption would have been wrong."

Eventually, after Team A and D returned, the students heard All Might's criticism, despite the fact that it was Momo who gave a perfect critique of Ida, who was judged as the best-acting person.

Looking at the four people, Galadriel had also made an analysis.

" In terms of physical strength, Bakugo is by far the most powerful! However, despite his intelligence, he let his arrogance take over and this made him underestimate the opponent! He is exactly like when Shalltear is angry ! Ida and Deku showed amazing strategy! If they were stronger, they could look like Demiurge! Nevertheless, Deku seems to have a lot of trouble controlling his Quirk, which makes him vulnerable during a fight! Ida said it before, without any debris around her, Ochaku's power is completely useless ."

Arms crossed, she thought.

" In the end, having only one power can be quite crippling! If a person had two, they would easily have the advantage. "

"Gali, the next match is starting." Ashido announced, looking at the screens.

Indeed, looking up, Galadriel saw Team B (Todoroki and Shoji) and Team I (Ojiro and Hagakure), entering the building. Nevertheless, this "fight" was very short. Using his spy abilities, Shoji had quickly figured out his opponents' strategy. And, taking advantage of this advantage, Todoroki then attacked them, freezing the feet of his opponents.

Unable to perform any ranged attacks, Ojiro and Hagakure could only watch Todoroki lay his hand on the bomb, signaling his team's victory.

"Team B, winner."

Then, seeing his two opponents struggling in vain to free themselves, Todoroki put his hand on the ground and managed to generate heat to melt the ice.

"Heat?" Ojiro wondered.

"Sorry, but the gap between us is just too big." Todoroki said, then leaving the room.

Being sure that she had seen flames appear in his hand, Galadriel placed her hand on her chin before thinking.

"Finally, this boy can be interesting."

Then the test continued with Sato and Koda, against Yaoyorozu and Mineta. But, from the start of the match, having felt a small hand touch her buttocks, Momo had grabbed hold of Mineta's head before slamming it against the ground, knocking him out. Then, being responsible for protecting the bomb, the young girl had to chain various strategies to thwart the assaults of the two boys, who wanted to take advantage of this advantage. Eventually, while she had managed to tie up Koda, Momo had ended up leaving an opening in her defense, which allowed Sato to rush towards the bomb and touch it, giving her team the victory. Then falling to the ground, the boy seemed to be tired, while his powerful muscles had disappeared.

" One more second, and she was the winner. "

Finally, came the fight between Kirishima and Sero, against Kaminari and Shiro. Being the villains, both Kirishima and Sero had decided to wait for their opponents to arrive. Then, when Kaminari attacked, Kirishima used his defensive power to resist his attacks, until Kaminari exceeded the limit of his Quirk and fried his brain.

Because of this, and not being able to touch the bomb due to the many tapes Sero had stuck all over the bomb, Shiro finally forfeited.

"GREAT!" Kirishima shouted, slapping Sero's hand. "A perfect win, man."

" One is too strong. "

Seeing them coming back to them, Ashido affirmed.

"They are all motivated! I can't wait for my turn."

Grinning mockingly, Galadirel let her elbow rest on her shoulder as she asked.

"Are you sure, Pinky? Just a question...which teams haven't taken part in the test yet?"

"Huh? It's simple...there's my team and..."

Suddenly freezing, she stared at Galadriel, who lengthened her smile.

"I can't wait to fight you, Pinky."

"Next game." All Might announced. "Team E vs. Team H."

"Kero! It's our turn."

"Are you ready, partner?" Tokoyami asked.

"It's whenever you want." Dark Shadow assured.

"Let's make this match fun." Galadriel finished.

In front of them, Ashido and Aoyama looked at each other, not confident about a potential victory. Still, clenching her fists, Ashido asserted.

"We... We can win! Even against a hundred opponents, victory is still possible."

"Yes! My Quirk will lead us to victory." Aoyama assured, making various gestures with his arm.

" This guy...I think he would get along well with Pandora's Actor. " Galadriel thought.

"Are you sure of your choice?" All Might asked. "If you want, I can designate another student to become your teammate, so that it is more equitable."

Immediately, the duo's pride vanished as they pleaded.

"We want a third teammate, please."

Sighing, All Might picked up an urn before grabbing a ball with a number on it.

"Number 8! Kirishima-kun...do you want to become their teammate?"

Despite his recent match, the boy bumped his fists, before securing.

"No worries! My manhood will win us."

Nevertheless, he felt cold sweats as several people stared at him behind his back, wanting to kill. It was then that he remembered that a few people wanted to fight Galadriel.

" I feel like I'm going to have to behave quietly after this fight. "

Watching the boy join his new team, Galadriel observed the trio that was going to fight them.

" Ashido is nimble and her Quirk allows her to create acid! She's perfect for countering people who want to melee her and fend them off! Aoyama may be stupid, but his Quirk has a lot of offensive power and gives him an advantage in ranged combat! And as far as Kirishima is concerned, he can easily act as the shield of the team and protect! In truth, these three, if they decide to cooperate, could form a team perfect. "

Playing the role of hero, Galadriel entered the building, accompanied by Asui and Tokoyami.

"Kero! What's our strategy?"

"There are three of them." Tokoyami remarked. "First of all, we must act discreetly to find out if they have decided to separate or stay near the bomb! If they have decided to send two people to fight us and leave only one of them them to watch the bomb, we can try to get around the attackers and be three to hit the bomb."

Suddenly, the boy looked uneasy, seeing Galadriel continue to stare at him.

"Why are you still staring at me? It's quite embarrassing."

" Sorry but ... "

Not even having time to finish her sentence, Galadriel heard the boy growl.

"Yes, that's my real face! Do you have a problem with that?"

Feeling a hint of anger in his voice, Galadriel looked at him in surprise. Then, finally, she remembers how people could be cruel to people who were different. In an elementary school, having a bird's head must have been enough to be rejected or called a monster.

Approaching Tokoyami, Galadriel suddenly began to pat his head, while affirming.

"Me, I like your face! You look super cool."

"Huh?" the boy wondered, seeing her then go forward.

Tilting her head from side to side to crack the muscles in her neck, Galadriel flashed a confident smile, before affirming.

"We are going to win this game."

"Are you sure of your strategy, Kirishima?" Ashido asked.

"We should have let someone watch the bomb." Aoyama asserted.

"Bad idea." The boy retorted, as the trio stood in the middle of the stairs, leading to the room where the bomb was. "Asui can project her long tongue for several meters! And Tokoyami can do the same with his shadow! If we decide to stay in front of the bomb, they can quickly find an opening to touch the bomb."

Looking at the staircase they were on, Kirishima smiled as Ashido covered the steps with acid. Being in front of the girl, Kirihima had already hardened his skin, while Aoyama had pointed his belt down the stairs. No matter the strategy of their opponents, they were ready to fight.

However, they were surprised, seeing Dark Shadow appear, down the stairs. Fixing it, the trio looked at him for a few seconds. Then, finally, Aoyama created a laser. Blinded by its light, Dark Shadow backed away before fleeing.

"Damn it!" Kirishima roared, seeing no one near the shadow. "Tokoyami can use it to spy on us?"

"The others will know we're here." Ashido understood. "We have to go back close to the bomb."

However, as soon as the trio turned around they saw their opponents appear in front of them.

" WHAT ? "

Having used a teleportation spell, Galadriel had simply waited for Tokoyami to tell her the position of their opponents, to teleport them up one floor and find themselves behind their enemies.

"Can she teleport?"

"Arcanum of teleportation." She announced.

Then, pretending to be tired, she dropped to one knee.

"Guys...it's up to you."

Immediately, Asui rushed to the bomb room.

"Kero! I'll take care of it."

"No way." Kirishima and Ashido retorted, running after her.

Nevertheless, striking the boy, Dark Shadow forced him back. Letting his shadow grow, Tokoyami decided to stop anyone from catching up with Asui. However, as he was about to block Ashido, a new ray of light hit Dark Shadow. Seeming to scream in agony, the shadow shrunk in size, allowing Ashido to double-cross Tokoyami. Then, immediately, she created several droplets of acid, which she threw at Asui.

As she threw her tongue at the bomb, the frog-girl was forced to jump to the side to avoid being hit by the acid droplets.

"Kero!" she said, seeing Ashido running towards the bomb, before getting into a defensive position. " Lack. "

Finding that he couldn't face Aoyama, Tokoyama rushed to Ashido and decided to use Dark Shadow, who was immune to his acid. Unfortunately, appearing behind him, Kirishima belted Tokoyami, before tackling him to the ground, like a rugby player.

"You will not pass."

Then, Aoyama created another ray of light to knock Asui back.

"Perfect! We can always push them back." He assured, running to join Ashido near the bomb.

For her part, seeing the situation turn against them, Galadriel wanted to sigh.

" Guys...I pretty much gave you the win. "

Nevertheless, she had to admit that the Ashido team had reacted faster than she would have thought. And since each of them seemed to know each other's strengths, their teamwork was good.

" I think I'm going to have to step in more than expected. "

Still pinning Tokoyami to the ground, Kirishima was forced to withstand the violent assaults of Dark Shadow, who hit his back without restraint. Gritting his teeth, he declared.

"I won't let go! I won't let go."

Nonetheless, a kick from Tokoyami to his midsection gave enough pressure to knock him to the side. Rolling on the ground, Tokoyami then stood up, before staring at Kirishima. Standing up too, the boy smiled, before banging his fists.

"Yeah! That's a manly fight."

However, he suddenly felt a hand touch his back. Turning, he saw Galadriel behind him.

" Que ... ? "

That was all he could say, before suddenly disappearing from view.

"What...?" Ashido and Aoyama wondered.

"I teleported him downstairs." Galadriel affirmed, turning to them. "Now it's 3 on 2 again."

For answer, Aoyama created another ray of light. Seeing the attack, Galadriel seemed to be thoughtful, wondering what technique she could use to stop it. Finally, she created a magic shield, powerful enough to stop level 4 magic spells. Hitting the surface of the shield, Aoyama's attack did no damage to it.

"What?" the blonde wondered.

"Tokoyami! Asui! Get ready." Galdriel ordered, taking a step forward.

Seeing her manage to advance towards him, while scattering his attack to the side, Aoyama continued to attack her. However, quickly, noises were heard at the level of his stomach. Then, showing a grimace of pain, he finally stopped, before putting his hands on his stomach.

"My... My stomach."

"NOW!" Galadriel shouted, as her curls disappeared and she dropped to the ground.

Immediately, Asui's tongue wrapped around Aoyama's body and she threw him behind her, only to run towards the bomb. Finding herself alone, Ashido had no other choice but to create a rain of acid which she threw towards Asui.

" DARK SHADOW ! "

Positioned itself in front of Asui to protect her, the shadow let the attack hit it, without taking any damage. Then, it rushed towards Ashido, before trying to crush her. Screaming in fear, Ashido jumped back to avoid it. Nevertheless, this gesture allowed Asui to jump towards the bomb and, before Ashido could stop her, she threw her tongue forward.

At that moment, after running at full speed, Kirishima came back into the room, but no sooner did he appear than he saw the tip of Asui's tongue hit the bomb.

"Winner...Team H."
