"This is going to be a piece of cake"
Midoriya smiled, standing with his team ready.

"Begin!!"
Midnight cheered.

All teams went charging straight for Midoriya but before anyone could reach they all suddenly began tripping and falling.
Everyone fell off their stand and hit the ground, no one was lucky enough to stay in their formation. It was like a domino effect, everyone was on the ground minus Midoriya's team.
Silence sounded in the air, no one knew what to do or say.
The only team that remained standing was Midoriya's. Everyone else was on the ground...

"...Midoriya's team is the only one that remains standing..."
Present Mic said as the fallen teams got up and stared mortified. They looked around, waiting for what their fate would be.

"Midoriya.
Did you make all of the teams fall on purpose or was it the passive form?"
Aizawa asked. His voice echoed through the stadium, the silence of the crowd allowed for it.

"I only set the condition that no one would be able to steal my band. How it happened wasn't up to me."
Midoriya replied.

Aizawa sighed, "We cannot have only 4 people pass onto the next round."

"what do we do?"
Midnight asked.

"Midoriya's team passes onto the next round by default.
The rest of the teams may compete against eachother. "
Aizawa said, though his voice a bit reluctant. It was the first time ever that the Calvary battle has had 2 rounds rather than 1. It was also the first time someone had managed to win in less than a minute.
The crowd ooooed in amazement before erupting into cheers and claps.
Midoriya shut off the active portion of his quirk and stepped off the arena with his teammates, who were still in shock as to how that had just happened.

"He won the round in a literal instant..."

"I know that he said he was going to win but... This is insane"

"His quirk is just being lucky...? How?"

"He broke two UA records in a single festival alone..."

"Its the first time that the Calvary battle has had a second round"

"He made everyone disqualify... They're lucky a second round is being hosted"

"Did he say he just set a condition and his quirk made it happen in whatever way it did... That's insanely powerful."

"That explains how he was able to control the robot"

"Absolutely insane"

Comments around the crowd spread around like wild fire, they were all astonished at his quirk's abilities. So far through the 2 events in the festival, Midoriya had yet to even break a sweat while everyone else was fighting for their lives.

Midoriya stood off to the side as he watched the rest of the class teams battle for the top three spots. After 6 minutes were up, the passing teams were announced.

"Going into the next and final round!

These are the final qualifiers for the final round!!

You will all face off on a 1 on 1 battle! Whoever wins each round moves up the chart until everyone has been fought.
We start off with 16 total fighters, then whoever wins that goes up so 8, then whoever wins that 4, then that 2. Whoever wins the final battle wins the gold medal!
And to settle who's in third, a side battle between the two qualifiers for third will take place.
I hope you're all ready!!!"
Present Mic explained.
