Settling into your seat between Tetsutetsu and Shishida, you felt the buzz of the stadium's energy envelop you. Tetsutetsu was animatedly rambling about his performance in the previous fight, his excitement infectious as he leaned over to gain your approval. "Did you see my fight against that Rock-Head from 1-A, President? What'd you think? I held my own, right?" he asked, his voice a mix of eagerness and pride.

Before you could respond, Present Mic's voice boomed through the stadium, drowning out the chatter. "[It's the first match of the second round! These two heroes in training have both been frontrunners in the sports festival! It's Midoriya Izuku! Versus Todoroki Shoto!]"

The crowd erupted into cheers, the noise almost deafening as Midoriya stepped into the arena, his determined expression contrasting with the nervous energy radiating from him. The camera focused on him for a moment before shifting to Todoroki, who stood at the opposite end, his usual stoic demeanor in place.

Your eyes flicked to Tetsutetsu, offering him a quick smile. "You were impressive," you said, your voice carrying over the noise. "Strong and determined."

Tetsutetsu beamed at your words, but your focus quickly shifted back to the match. You leaned forward slightly, eyes locked on the two combatants as Present Mic announced the start of the fight. "[But which of these rivals will advance to the next round? Begin!]"

The match started with a bang—literally—as Todoroki unleashed a massive wave of ice. Midoriya countered instantly, shouting, "Smash!" His Delaware Smash, shattering the ice and sending a shockwave through the arena. The crowd gasped at the sheer force of the collision, and you felt the vibrations in your seat.

"Whoa! So cold!"

"Goddam! We get it; you're powerful! Extra, much?"

"Not gonna lie, feels like this wind is gonna freeze my nuts solid!"

Todoroki's expression remained steely as he analyzed Midoriya's tactics. You could see the gears turning in his mind, his eyes reflecting a deep, calculating focus. He's prepared to injure himself to counter me, he thought, narrowing his eyes as he observed Midoriya. Just as I expected.

"[Wow! Midoriya managed to break Todoroki's insane opening move! Talk about a big opening!]" Present Mic's voice boomed over the loudspeakers.

Midoriya's strategy was clear as he focused on his classmate: endure Todoroki's relentless attacks and find an opening. His mind ran miles as he sought a weakness in Todoroki's icy onslaught. I don't know much about Todoroki's fighting style, he mused. His attacks are so fast that it's hard to collect data on him. But I've only got six more chances. Come on, find a weak spot.
