"That's the end of the second round!"

Present Mic yelled as Gohru heard someone falling down the moment the event ended.

"Now, let's take a look at the top 4 teams right away!"

The hologram expands as it shows the leaderboard, which covers all the teams, creating more tension and making it easier for everyone to see.

"In first place, Team Todoroki!"

Glancing over at the main protagonist, he sees Kaminari with his brain fried, Iida with the engines on his legs steaming, Yaoyorozu with a sigh of relief, and Todoroki, who was looking at his left hand.

"Even though we won, it felt like we were skating on thin ice..."

Yaoyorozu said as she crossed her hands under her chest, causing Iida to have a guilty face.

"Sorry, I caused everyone trouble in the end."

"That's not true. In fact, it was your Respiro Burst that helped us get the 10,000,000 points, Iida-san."

"In second place, Team Jin!"

"Keikaku Doori (all according to plan)..."

Denji said while smirking at Bakugo, who was fuming in anger.

"We almost lost, though, and there's something that I have to tell you later in private..."

The Quirk that targeted him while fighting 1-B. That was not from the calvary battlefield at all. Someone targeted him from the stands, from what Mind's Eye analyzed. It's best if Denji knew about it too, just in case.

"And in third place, Team Bakugo!"

"Ahh, we were so close!"

Ashido said it annoyingly, as Sero just shrugged.

"Well, third place isn't that bad. All's well that ends well."

"When did you get so smart?"

Kirishima grinned at the surprising last sentence as he glanced over at the pissed-off Bakugo with a sweat drop.

"... But do you really think that's how he feels, though?"

"Ah, I see what you mean."

"GAAAAAHHHHHH!!!"

Bakugo yells as he slams his fist onto the ground, frustrated that they got 3rd place instead of 1st.

"Lastly, in fourth place, Team Midoriya!"

Midoriya slams onto the ground on his knees as he starts crying, causing the surrounding teammates to just smile at the boy (except for Hatsume, who was tinkering with her "babies").

"These four teams... Will advance... to the FINAL ROUND!"

Looking at the phone, Gohru prays that whoever was calling him wasn't who he was thinking of before looking at the saved contact.

Toga Himiko (3 Missed Calls).

Cursing to the gods, he ignored the call and immediately opened his frequently used Messenger app before hovering over Dabi's contact. Messaging him, he waited for a response.
