The third chapter is here, I'll remind you that I'm not good at English, so I use Google Translate, so some words and phrases may seem strange.
"TIME IS OVER!"
Izuku fell to his knees, in shock, he had failed, he wouldn't be able to enter U.A, while he was thinking about this, the other participants were commenting on him and his punch.
"what was that?"
"he sent that "villain" flying with one punch"
"he probably has a strength quirk, I never thought I would see someone so strong without even being on the hero course"
"but how could a guy with a quirk as powerful as that be so nervous all this time? It doesn't make sense"
"maybe it was an act to fool us"
"I don't understand how it would benefit him but... well it doesn't matter, this kid is incredible"
The boy with glasses heard everyone talking while watching Izuku still kneeling on the ground.
'Are you all blind? This is not everything! That boy... he acted to save that girl, you didn't have time, and you were out of the danger zone, your chances were running out and yet... he went head first without hesitation, if it hadn't been in the middle of a big exam, of course I would have done the same! But wait maybe that was part of the test!' thought the boy with glasses.
"I... I failed..." Izuku thought.
"I see, if the test was done this way... so he..." the boy with glasses thought as he stared at Izuku.

Chapter 3: the first day
A week had passed since the entrance exam, Izuku continued training and still wondered if he had managed to pass, while having dinner with his mother.
"Izuku..."
"Izuku?"
"Izuku!? Are you okay? What are you doing smiling at the fish!?" asked Izuku's mother, Inko Midoriya, worried for her son.
"ah, sorry, I'm fine" Izuku said as he went back to eating.
Afterwards, the two finished eating, Inko was washing the dishes and Izuku was on the couch thinking about the entrance exam.
"Doing the math, I think I barely passed the written test, but I don't think that matters, because I didn't get any points in the practical test" Izuku thought worriedly.
"Ah yes, the results are due today or tomorrow, right?" Inko asked.
"that's right" replied Izuku despondently.
"you know honey, even if you can't, I still think what you did was amazing" Inko said smiling.
"yes..." Izuku said without paying much attention.
Inko left the room and Izuku was left thinking.
"I didn't even tell my mother about my current strength, or about the fact that I had already faced some villains during my training, she would never understand" Izuku thought.
Suddenly the door opened and Izuku saw his desperate mother on the floor holding a letter.
"Izuku! Izuku! It's here! The letter from UA has arrived!" Inko exclaimed as she handed the letter to Izuku, Izuku took the letter and was surprised.
After that, Izuku went into his room to read the letter, he tore the envelope, but what fell out was not a letter, it was a small device that generated a hologram, and in that hologram appeared...
"ALL MIGHT!?" Izuku exclaimed seeing All Might in the projection, he was in his muscular form and wearing a yellow suit.
"1, 2, 3... am I showing?" said All Might very close to the camera that was recording him, before walking away "young man, I'm sorry for not believing in you, but you really surprised me, I think we'll be seeing a lot more of each other, it seems like it's been decided that I'll work at U.A. "
"Will All Might be at U.A?" Izuku shook his head in surprise.
All Might spoke a little with someone who was recording, and then spoke to Izuku again.
"young Midoriya, you passed the written test, but in practice you had 0 points, obviously you failed" said All Might.
"..." Izuku lowered his head, he knew, he could have moved faster to destroy the robots, but he was so nervous that he couldn't think straight about what to do.
"that, if the proofs were everything!" All Might said, catching Izuku's attention "I'm a great presenter, watch this video!" All Might used a controller and pressed a button, showing a video on the screen behind him.
Izuku saw that kind girl from before.
"huh... excuse me, hi" said the girl a little nervously.
"that girl?" Izuku thought confused.
"as soon as the exam was over that girl asked us directly, what did she ask for, you ask? Find out now!" said All Might pointing to the screen.
"uhh sorry to bother you, but... you know the messy green boy, he had freckles, he had a plain look... do you know who I'm talking about?" she asked.
"it's me..." Izuku thought without understanding.
"Would it be possible for me to share some points with him!?" the girl asked.
"what?" Izuku was surprised.
"I heard him say he didn't have any points..." she said feeling guilty "please, at least the points he could have gotten if he hadn't saved me!"
"why... why is she doing this?" Izuku wondered.
"that boy saved my life!" the girl screamed.
Izuku began to cry emotionally.
"and the judges were looking for a lot more than just crushing robots for points!" said All Might
"I'm sorry miss, but you can't share points, but I don't think you would need to do that anyway" said Present Mic placing his hand on the girl's head.
"Do you think a heroism department would reject a candidate who does the right thing? Think again! Do you think it's cliche? That's fine with me! It's in the job description, risking your life to do cliche things! So you got redemption points, all the judges agreed! They saw another heroic ability in you!"
Izuku Midoriya: 60 points
Ochako Uraraka: 45 points
"Izuku Midoriya, UA is now your hero academy!" exclaimed All Might.
Izuku opens the door to his room and looks at his mother with a smile.
"I did it..." Izuku said smiling.
After a lot of effort, and constantly pushing my limits, my life has changed and will continue to change, and this is how my dream academic life will begin.
A few days passed, and Izuku's first day of school arrived, he was in front of the door, packing his things, about to leave.
"Izuku, did you pack your clothes?"
"Yes mom"
"and your scarf? You can't go out without your scarf, darling!"
"I got him! Ugh, look at the time, I have to hurry..." Izuku said, grabbing his backpack and getting up to leave.
"Izuku!" Inko exclaimed.
Izuku who had already opened the door looked at his mother.
"what?" Izuku asked.
"...you look really cool now" said Inko smiling.
"..." Izuku smiled "I'm coming, bye mom!" said Izuku before running off towards U.A.
It didn't take long to arrive at U.A, Izuku was surprised by how big the academy was, thinking that he would probably end up getting lost there.
"1-A... where is room 1-A?... it's very easy to get lost here this place is huge..." Izuku thought as he walked through the halls 'in every year, less than 1 in 300 applicants manage to pass, only 36 candidates passed, so two classes are made with 18 students"
After a few minutes of searching Izuku finally managed to find room 1-A.
"Wow, this door is huge, I think it's one size fits all... I'll be with the only ones who passed that exam, if only those two are in 1-B, I'll be eternally grateful" thought Izuku, remembering Bakugou and the boy from glasses.
Izuku then opened the door.
"don't put your legs on the desk! Don't you think it's disrespectful to your classmates!?" said the boy with glasses.
"no I really don't think so, anyway which school did you come from secondary character!?" asked Bakugou with his legs on the table.
"of course they would be here" Izuku thought.
"I studied at Soumei private school, my name is Tenya Iida" said Iida
"Soumei...!? You're an elite, it looks like I got a reason to finish you off after all!" Bakugou said, smiling arrogantly.
"finish me!? How daring, do you really want to become a hero!?" said Iida in surprise.
Bakugou and Iida notice Izuku watching at the door.
"it's you..." said Iida, recognizing Izuku.
At that moment everyone in the room looked at Izuku, and Iida starts walking towards him.
"hello, I'm Tenya Iida from Soumei High School" Iida introduced himself as he approached in a strange way.
"Ah, I heard, I'm Izuku Midoriya, nice to meet you Iida" said Izuku.
"Midoriya, you realized the real objective of the practical exam, didn't you? I was blind to it, I judged you completely wrong, I hate to admit it but you were the best of all!" Iida admitted in frustration that he hadn't noticed sooner and had misjudged Izuku.
'I didn't notice' Izuku thought.
'Deku...' Bakugou thought irritably.
"ah! It's you! The boy with broccoli hair" said Uraraka behind Izuku.
'broccoli hair?' Izuku thought before turning around.
"I'm glad I found you!" said Uraraka smiling.
'she's the kind girl! She looks beautiful in her school uniform' Izuku thought blushing.
"you did it, like Present Mic said! By the way, you were incredible when you punched that robot!" said Uraraka excitedly while imitating Izuku's punch.
"ah, but it was thanks to you who spoke to him directly that I had helped..." Izuku explained hiding his red face.
Bakugou stared at Izuku remembering what happened a while ago.
Flashback...
"this means that two students from our high school got into UA, two! And Midoriya's admission was a miracle among miracles" said Izuku and Bakugou's old teacher upon receiving the news.
"did you need to talk like that?" Izuku wondered.
Later outside the school, Bakugou grabbed Izuku by the collar of his uniform and slammed him against the wall.
"What kind of cheat did you use to pass the exam, you bastard!? I was supposed to be the first one from here to get into UA, just me! You tore up my glorious future and pissed on it! I said go somewhere else, idiot!" shouted Bakugou angrily
Izuku grabbed Bakugou's wrist and applied force, making Bakugou let go.
"Kacchan... I didn't need anyone to believe in me, I trained a lot, I surpassed my limits several times, no matter how difficult it got, if I was accepted, I achieved it through my effort, no matter what you say! I'll go to UA!" Izuku exclaimed seriously as he increased his grip.
End of flashback...
'How does he have the courage to challenge me? He must have some scheme' Bakugou thought as he watched Izuku interact with Uraraka and Iida.
"Is today the day of the ceremony or the counselor's guidance? Oh and the teachers, what will they be like? I'm really excited" said Uraraka excitedly
"too close..." Izuku thought with a red face.
"go somewhere else if you want to make friends" said a tired and serious voice.
Everyone was confused, wondering who said that, until they realized that behind Uraraka there was what looked like a caterpillar with a human face, but it was a man in a sleeping bag.
"this is the department..." the man takes out a box of juice from inside the sleeping bag "heroes" said the man drinking the juice.
'...what the hell is this?' thought Izuku, Uraraka and Iida as they watched the man.
The man got out of the sleeping bag.
"hmm it took 8 seconds to calm down, you all lack common sense" said the man.
Everyone stared at the man in confusion.
'Is this the teacher? He should be a pro hero too, right? But I've never heard of him... he looks like he hasn't showered in 5 years' Izuku thought.
"I'm the teacher of this class, Aizawa Shota, nice to meet you" Aizawa introduced himself
Everyone was surprised to discover that this man would be their teacher.
Aizawa takes clothes out of the sleeping bag "put these on immediately and go to the physical education camp"
Meanwhile elsewhere, All Might in his thin form was looking at the list of teachers.
"the U.A system is scary, depending on the class teacher, even today they can..." All Might thought as he looked at the list.
The students went down to the physical education field, wearing the clothes that Aizawa handed out, and there they were told what they were going to do.
"a quirk assessment test!?" the students asked each other in surprise.
"What about the ceremony? What about the counselor's guidance?" asked Uraraka confused.
"if you want to be heroes we don't have time for silly niceties" Aizawa said to the students' misfortune "you all know the school's reputation for freedom on campus, well that freedom also applies to us teachers"
"huh?" the students were confused.
Aizawa took out his cell phone and showed the students a list of activities.
"softball pitching, long jumping, 50 meter dash, marathon running, strength testing, upper body exercises, toe touching, these are all activities that you know from your previous schools, naturally, physical tests where you were prevented from using your quirks, the country continues to not standardize these records, in order to maintain average levels of performance, well that is negligence on the part of the government" Aizawa then looked at Bakugou "Bakugou, tell me, do you It came first, didn't it?"
Bakugou confused agreed.
"What was your softball pitching record at your regular school?" Aizawa asked.
"67 meters" Bakugou replied.
"now try using your quirk this time" Aizawa said.
Bakugou caught the ball, and stood in the middle of a circle.
"don't leave the circle, don't hold back" Aizawa said.
Bakugou prepared to throw the ball.
"alright, I'll add an explosion to the throw..." Bakugou threw the ball while using an explosion "DIE!" Bakugou shouted.
"die?" Izuku thought as he listened to Bakugou.
"before anything, you need to know what you are capable of doing, this is a rational method that will form the basis of your "heroic foundation" " Aizawa showed the result.
Katsuki Bakugou: 705.2 meters.
"705 meters? Unbelievable!" said a blonde boy with a black stripe.
"that was amazing! It looks really fun" said a girl with pink skin and hair.
"can we really use our quirks now? That's the hero department!" exclaimed an excited boy with black hair.
"you said it looks fun?" Aizawa sighs angrily "is this why they want to stay here for 3 years? Always staying calm and peaceful? What happened to the new heroes? Okay then, in this case, new rule: the student who scores the lowest number of points will be judged as "no hope" and you will be expelled" said Aizawa smiling.
The students were surprised.
Meanwhile All Might found Aizawa on the teachers' list.
"oh no, it's Aizawa, I hope they stay" All Might thought worriedly.
Back to the students, they were surprised by Aizawa's words.
'will the last place be expelled?' Izuku thought in surprise.
"our freedom means expelling any student we want, welcome to the hero department" said Aizawa.
"but it's our first day here! And even if it wasn't it would be fair!" said Uraraka indignantly.
"Natural disasters, mass accidents, evil villains, all kinds of calamities can happen when we least expect it, Japan is awash in "injustice", your job as heroes is to reverse all of this and restore reason, if you were expecting a friendly conversation in a restaurant after school you are very mistaken, now and for the next 3 years, all you can expect from UA is difficulty after another, that is "Plus Ultra", go with everything you have" Aizawa said .
All the students were surprised, most were worried.
Iida grabbed a bottle of water and drank some "it was too serious to be a joke, but I'm among the best, I have no choice" Iida thought determinedly.
"I still have more to show" Bakugou thought confidently.
Uraraka was filled with determination.
Izuku clenched his fist 'I'll pass'
"very well, the demonstration is over, now it's for real" said Aizawa.
Bakugou stood there staring at the ground as he thought
'until now... you were just another stone in my path'
11 years ago...
Izuku and Bakugou were 4 years old when they were walking through a forest, with Bakugou walking in front.
"you are very lucky Kacchan, your quirk is really cool! I hope mine appears soon" Izuku said excitedly.
"I already told you Deku, no matter your quirk, it will never be like mine" said Bakugou.
End of Flashback.
'you shouldn't be more than a stumbling block'
And so the tests continued.
2 test: grip strength test
While two students watched another student surprised by having a 540 kg grip, Izuku ended up exceeding that by a lot.
Izuku Midoriya: 25,768 kg
"unbelievable..." Uraraka said observing the result.
"I think few professional heroes with strength quirks could achieve a result like that..." said Iida in surprise.
"and I didn't even use full strength..." thought Izuku
Bakugou watched that more frustrated.
3rd test: long jump.
Izuku made a jump that cracked the ground and sent him flying off the U.A. grounds.
"he's using a hack!" thought a small student with purple balls on his head, increasingly frightened by Izuku's achievements.
4th test: lateral jumps.
Izuku jumped from one side to the other, with such speed that it seemed like he was creating afterimages, and caused an earthquake, surprising everyone and frustrating Bakugou even more.
5th test: softball pitch.
Uraraka used her quirk to send the ball flying into space.
"infinite" said Aizawa showing the result.
Everyone was surprised, Uraraka had sent the ball into space.
'alright, I'm doing fine, let's go' Izuku as he entered the circle with the softball.
Izuku took a deep breath, positioned himself, and threw the ball causing a strong wind that almost sent the students flying and raised a cloud of dust.
"what was this!?"
"This guy's strength has no end!?"
"he's a monster!"
"Can Iida see anything?" asked Uraraka.
"yes... dust" Iida replied, his glasses were covered in dust and he couldn't see anything beyond that.
After a while the dust settled.
"How was I?" Izuku asked
Aizawa observed the distance on his cell phone, and showed it to his students.
Izuku Midoriya: 9,460.7 meters.
"IT'S MORE THAN 9000!" She shouted the student with purple balls on his head.
Everyone was surprised by Izuku's strength, they never thought that anyone in the room would be at that level, and besides them, All Might in his muscular form was watching everything, also surprised.
"I came because I was worried, but this boy... he is extremely strong, I wonder how he could have changed so much in one year... he could end up becoming much stronger than me in my prime" thought All Might.
"I knew it would be something incredible, but I didn't imagine it would be at this level!" said Uraraka excited and surprised.
"so much power for a student... he is already way ahead of all of us" said Iida observing.
The tests continued, with Izuku always standing out much more than the others, breaking U.A's records, and now Aizawa was about to reveal the results.
Everyone looked at the results on the hologram and Izuku smiled.
1st Izuku Midoriya
"in fact, that thing about the expulsion was a lie" warned Aizawa.
...
...
...
"what?" Izuku asked without understanding.
"it was a logic trick for you to do your best" Aizawa explained.
"a logic trick?" Izuku thought in disbelief.
"of course it was a lie, he couldn't expel someone on the first day" said a girl with black hair and a ponytail.
"well that's all, your curriculum sheets are back in the classroom, so don't forget to look at them later" Aizawa said before leaving.
When Aizawa walked away, All Might appeared to confront him, Aizawa was not one to hesitate when expelling a student he thought was "hopeless" last year Aizawa had expelled an entire class, All Might asked why Aizawa had changed his mind , and Aizawa responded.
"After seeing how everyone acted, I realized that none of them can be considered hopeless" Aizawa replied before leaving.
After a while, the first day of school had finally ended, Izuku was returning home thinking about everything that had happened.
"I didn't think my first day at U.A would be like this" Izuku said out loud before he felt a hand on his shoulder.
"how are you?"
Izuku turned around and noticed Iida "oh hi Iida, I'm fine, I was just thinking about today's class"
"I have to admit, Aizawa-sensei really surprised me, I thought "so this is how the biggest academy works" now I understand how a teacher can encourage through lies" said Iida reflecting.
'before I thought Lida was scary, but he's just an honest and hardworking guy' Izuku thought smiling
"hey guys!"
Izuku and Iida turned back and realized it was Uraraka, coming towards him.
"are you going to the station? Wait for me!" said Uraraka running.
"you are the infinite girl" said Iida remembering Uraraka
'infinity girl?' Izuku thought.
"I'm Ochako Uraraka, and you're um... Tenya Iida and you're... Midoriya... Deku!" said Uraraka pointing at Izuku.
"Deku?" Izuku said confused.
"eh? But isn't that what that kid Bakugou calls you?" asked Uraraka confused, remembering Bakugou calling Izuku Deku.
"my name is Izuku, Deku is just a nickname that Kacchan uses to insult me" Izuku explained.
"Ah so it's an insult" Iida understood.
"Ah! Really? I'm sorry, but you know, I like the nickname Deku on you, it gives me the feeling of "never giving up" you know?" Uraraka said apologetically
...
...
...
"then you can call me Deku" said Izuku, smiling with a flushed face
'the strongest SIMP!?' Iida thought
And that's how my first day of school ended.
