"The UA sports festival. "

"The huge battle where fledgling heroes sharpen their swords once a year."

"Anyway, these are the guys, right? The miraculous new stars who overcame enemy attacks with their hearts of steel! Hero Course, Class 1-A, right?!"

.*Loud Cheering*

Sukuna looked at the huge audience and grinned widely.

"Interesting..."

"The next class also filled with talents, Hero Course, Class 1-B. Next up, General studies, Classes C, D, and E. Support Course, Classes, F, G, and H are here, too. And Business Course, Classes I, J and K. All of UA's first years are here now!"

.*Loud Cheering *

...

"Time for player pledge"

"Oh? This year's chief umpire for the first year is the R- Rated Hero, Midnight?"

Students pov

What is Ms, Midnight wearing.."

"That's an R-Rated Hero for you!"

"Is it okay for her to be in a high school even though she is R-Rated?"

"Quite everyone."

"Representing the students in the first year, Ryoumen Sukuna from Class 1-A !"

"Woah.."

"As expected."

"Well, he did come first in the entrance exam."

...

Sukuna walked to the stage with his hands in his pocket and said with a straight face.

"I pledge..."

Sukuna grinned widely.

"That I'll hold back so that you guys stand a chance."

The whole stadium was silenced, and the next moment, the students erupted.

"Booo!'

"What the heck!"

"Stop messing around!"

"Don't get so full of yourself, Class 1-A!"

"You, pink-haired bastard!"

Sukuna heard the others, and his smile became even more prominent.

"Let's have some fun, okay?"

"Fun? he is not taking us seriously at all !"

"How overconfident can you get?"

"I'll crush you!"

...

After the pledge, midnight took over,

"Now, let's get started right away."

"The first round is what you would call a Qualifier. Every year, many drink their tears here. And the first game is..."

"Obstacle race!"

"All 11 classes will participate in this race. The course is the outer circumference of this stadium about 4 Kilometers. Our school selling points is freedom.. As long as you stay in course anything works! Now, everyone take your places."

...

"Start!"

Just as the Midnight started the race, Present Mic began his commentary,

"Alright, here's the play-by-play. Are you ready for some commentary, Mummy-Man."

"You are the one who forced me to come here, you know."

"Then let's get started. What should you pay attention to in the early stages?"

Aizawa narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice.

"The part right now"

...

Sukuna was behind the entire group, trying to get through the tunnel.

'Man, how is there no one sticking to the wall?'

Sukuna leapt over everyone and crashed into the wall. He continued transferring wall to wall while using his cursed energy to pierce the cement, burying his fingers in them.

Suddenly, the surroundings became chilly, and the wall froze. Of course, it had no effect on Sukuna as he was still transferring wall to wall.

'Heh, something like this can't stop me!'

...

Todoroki pov

"Sorry, but I will be leaving first,

...

"Oww! what the-"

"it's freezing over, I can't move!"

"So cold!"

Bakugo pov

"Take that! you half-half bastard. ".

Momo pov

"Naive Todoroki"

Suddenly, Sukuna crashed right in front of them.

'What! he just crashed like a meteor!

Bakugo pov

"I will not let you get away so easily. You bastards!"

Sukuna leaps forward, ferociously, cracking the ground and blasting everyone out of his way.

"Oi Oi, where do you think you are going, scarface."

Todoroki pov

'More people out of class 1-A managed to dodge than I expected. '

"Huh?"

...

Sukuna was catching up to Todoroki closely, followed by Bakugo and the rest. He soon noticed something familiar up ahead?

"Haha, come back for more, huh? 0-pointer I've already adapted to you!"

"Dismantle!"

Sukuna cut through most of the 0-pointers in the way and surpassed Todoroki.

"Remember my words, Todoroki. Are you ready to die? Because I am!"

...

Todoroki Pov

"So this is what they used in the general entrance?"

"If they went through all this trouble, then I wish they would've prepared something better. "

The ground started to freeze, but before todoroki could freeze them. The 0-pointer was cut in half, and Sukuna ran past him.

"Remember my words, Todoroki. Are you ready to die? Because I am!"

'Damn you! Sukuna!'

Shoto created a massive iceberg to protect himself from the falling robots.

...

"Class 1-A, Ryoumen-San cuts through the robo inferno like butter and passed Todoroki, who was in the lead. Does he not have any regards for his or others' safety?"

"His actions are logical and somewhat strategic. Using the robots and todoroki to block the others to his advantage."

"As expected of the Number one in the entrance exam. he is closely followed by Bakugo, who decides to go overboard since the bottom is blocked."

...

UA teachers pov

"As expected, most of the ones in the lead are from Class 1-A. "

"There is a difference between those that have faced hardship and those that haven't. "

"Because of the villain attack, The students of Class 1-A are more mature and quick to take action."

...

Present Mic sighed at the students crossing the first obstacle

"Oi oi it seemed everyone was able to pass the first barrier with relative ease. Then what about the second!?"

"The second Barrier, " The Fall!" "

"If you fall, then you are out, If you don't want to fall then crawl"

Present Mic continued interacting with Aizawa

"A lot of people are working hard for their chance huh? Eraser Head?"

"Ahh.. What is this!? The leader's of the pack, Sukuna and Todoroki are easily getting through"

...

The audience

"The first and second place are way ahead of the pack huh?"

"The second place's quirk is very strong and the first place..."

"Well, what the hell, he seemed to be not using any quirk but with pure physical strength?"

"Does he have a reinforcement quirk?"

"But, I saw cut the robot into pieces without even touching it, so he must have some type of slashing quirk."

"Wait! your telling me, that if wanted to he could just cut those tight ropes to make most of the contestants have hard time crossing the second course."

"Oi oi is he really holding back!?"

...

"And now we have finally arrived at the final barrier, the reality here is, that it's a minefield!"

"By the way, the explosives are for the games so it is not that powerful but it sure is flashy enough to make one wet his pants!"

...

Sukuna pov

'Interesting, Bakugo and Todoroki are still keeping up even though they are still behind me.'

Sukuna saw Todoroki slowing down behind him and grinned. He then leaped over some of the mines.

"You two watch closely, I'll show you how it's done!"

"Sukuna landed on a mine while having his legs reinforced with Cursed Energy and he propelled himself forward.

"Woohooo!!"

Todoroki pov

'How?! this is an obstacle that puts those at the lead at a disadvantage, yet he used the explosions to his advantage'

Todoroki uses his quirk to freeze the mines and Bakugo was neck and neck and they are catching up to Sukuna.

.*BOOM!*

"OHHH! There is a huge explosion in the back,"

"What's with that force!??"

"Is it coincidence, or did he do it on purpose? Class A's Midoriya is in hot pursuit for the first place."

Midoriya Pov

'I flew just like I planned, but there is too much force! and, I didn't think about the landing!'

...

Sukuna Pov

'AMAZING!! THEY ARE ALL RIGHT BEHIND ME! I guess I have no choice.'

Suddenly with blinding speed Sukuna crouched and put his palm on the ground and said

.

.

.

.

"Cleave spiderweb"

.*BOOM!*

The ground below them blew up. After the smoke clears. Sukuna was putting all his might on his legs and was full speed ahead.

...

Present Mic, Eraserhead and the audience were shocked at what they just saw.

"Sukuna from Class 1-A clears the minefield with ease! he even wiped out Todoroki, Bakugo and Midoriya. "

"Oi oi Eraserhead almost everyone in the lead is from your class just what the hell are you teaching them."

"I didn't do anything, They got each other fired up on their own."

...

"UA sports festival, the first-year stage."

"Who could have predicted this development at the beginning and especially the conclusion "

"Right now, the first person back in the stadium is..."

"Ryoumen Sukuna!"

.*Loud Cheering *

Todoroki and Bakugo finished after him and Midoriya who surprisingly survived the crash and dragged his body to the finish line.

Todoroki pov

'Damnit, I couldn't beat him!'

Todoroki stared at Sukunas back and it

seemed to be getting farther and farther away.

Bakugo pov

"Damnit! not again.."

Midoriya pov

sniff*'..I'm sorry All Might I failed you!'

Suddenly he felt a hand wrapped around his shoulder.

"Oi how about standing proud Midoriya. Us four are the only ones finishing first."

Sukuna collapsed on his shoulder.

"Ryoumen-san!"

"Hehe sorry I used dismantle on the mines behind bakugo and todoroki to slow everyone else down."

"Why would you do that? you guys were very far up ahead. "

"Cmon Deku, you know why. Because I can. Now stay here, im going to heal you three for the upcoming round."

Sukuna heals deku. Then Shoto and Bakugo who refused to be healed up by him.

"Sorry that I blow us up to kingdom come. By the way, what were you trying to do with the shield."

"Well, I used it to launch myself using some of the mines that I dug up to create a huge explosion to gain some momentum.

"What about your landing? I doubt that you'd be able to clear the entire minefield. "

" I was going to land on Kacchan and todoroki shoulders and tried to swing my shield on the ground to blow Kacchan and Todoroki away so that I could catch up to you."

"But I blew up everything in front of you causing all three of you to be blown back."

"Yep, What was that by the way? what did you do Ryoumen-san?"

"I touched my palm on the ground and visiolised in my mind a spiderweb and released cleaved in the shape of a spiders web, attacking a larged area around me. To be honest I didn't think it would blow me away in the right trajectory."

Midoriya was still sad that he didn't won though.

"Hey, turn that frown upside-down. I'll admit you bakugo and todoroki forced me to used cleave to make sure i win. And besides I think the world saw your play using the shield."

"Thanks Ryoumen-san. "
