68 The first year final pt1

Three weeks later Sabaku and Mina where leaving the exam hall for the theory part of the year in the numerous normal subjects. It was honestly child's play with the only difficulty being history as Sabaku wasn't very informed of the history of this world. Two hundred and fifty years since the quirk age started so he had a lot to cram but with his intelligence it was easy. Mina however just didn't like history.

Tomorrow was the day of the practical exam for the hero course except this year 1-C is also participating as the majority wish to be heroes as well. The exam changes every year based on the students so there was no way to glean the info and the midterms had them fighting pros so some people dreaded the finals of the year.

The couple weren't worried about it though as they had trained to their peak of their age group. They can only develop new abilities and wait till their bodies mature a little more to improve more. Others in their year don't have that problem as they only began training a few months before joining UA so they have to train harder to match them. As much as some people are determined to do that, time simply isn't on their side.

The couple went home and had a large dinner before cuddling together and watching a movie. Then they slept together with no sex for the night as they didn't want to have sore hips and back pains the next day. To make things fair for everyone the costumes were not allowed except for essentials like aoyama'S belt and the like.

The test set of warning bells in Sabaku's ears as he heard the explanation from nezu. The USJ had been rebuilt from the ground up and transformed into the damned trick tower from hxh. Every student is to enter alone and go through the paths they want. They either have to solve problems, run an obstacle course or fight other students. The grades are the ones who claws the fastest.

With a heavy heart and anime flashbacks Sabaku entered the dome and followed down the corridors changing his direction every so often so as to make his path more irregular. He didn't use observation haki as he wanted it to be at least a challenge.

The first obstacle for him was just that, an obstacle in the form of a reinforced door that the person had to get through. If not they either retreat and take a different route which would waste time. Sabaku places his hand on the door and found that it was somehow damp meaning he couldn't drain all the moisture as it had an infinite amount.

So he pulled back his fist and used ryou armament making his fist and forearm black. With one swing the door was torn apart and blasted down the corridor towards the next obstacle. With ryou Sabaku doesn't even need to make contact to do damage so he inspected his hand to make sure it wasn't damaged or anything. Can never be to careful.

Five minutes later he arrived on an obstacle course were high powered balls were fired at the student so as to knock them down below. A quick glance showed that failing meant being swept away to a different area. Sabaku looked to his right and found a piece of the wall torn off and then looked to the exit finding the door.

He remembered deku doing the same for the mines during the sports festival so this must be him. He casually walked and allowed the balls to pass through his body harmlessly. In the control room nezu was munching on nuts angrily as he watched sabaku. He knows his weakness of a wet substance so that's why he changed the ammo for the balls just for him..... but they aren't hitting!! He thought angrily as he munched faster.

Sabaku was using his future vision of 3 seconds to predict the balls trajectory and simply open up his body like katakuri did. He reached the next obstacle with ease about fourth seconds later.

He walked into a room with the door closing behind him while 9 others opened at different points in the room allowing nine other students to enter. A buzzer sounded and said "defeat your opponent to go further". Sabaku looked at the others and spotted shinso among them. Most of the people were 1-C with one person being the welding kid from 1-B. He looked towards shinso and said "hey" shinso was shaken so he hastily responded back "hhhhey?" "Sup" shinso was confused! Why isn't his quirk working on him.

Sabaku just read the look on his face "the answer to your question is willpower, most chumps might be able to wiggle a finger or move slightly. Maybe even shakily reply! But I'm built different. Let me show you" he said while shinso was frightened at the consequences he was implying. People could be immune or resist the quirk.

Sabaku then flared slightly releasing a wave of pressure which made the nine other students pass out instantly. Shinso lasted a micro second longer than the others but he was the closest. The examiners watched wide eyed as Sabaku beat nine people with a glare. From the screen they couldn't see or feel the wave of Haoshoku so they assumed it was a quirk. But how can sand knock people out with a glare! To outrageous!

Sabaku shrugged as he went towards the centre of the room which began to rise as a spiral staircase signifying his victory. He walked up and found himself behind a glass screen similar to one a prisoner would speak to someone through so he turned to sand and ended up on the other side.

Kinda confused about what that task was meant to accomplish not noticing the text appearing on the glass presenting a moral dilemma he was meant to respond to so the glass would raise. Sabaku didn't know how other students were meant to pass through the glass, maybe they were meant to break it somehow?

Anyway he kept walking down corridors taking turns every often before he ended up falling down a hole. He stopped his fall with a quick and quiet geppo step. He looked around finding a small cage ring along with noticing the screams of another person coming from a different hole.

With a squeak and a thump monoma neito of 1-B landed on his face. Sabaku being the nice guy walked towards him and offered a hand up. Monoma looked up and sneered was he grasped Sabaku's hand copying his quirk. "Well well well, if it isn't someone from the magnanimous 1-A to what do I owe the pleasure your highness" he asked mockingly as Sabaku walked back slightly and looked at the speaker which then announced for them to fight.

Monoma then tried to punch Sabaku only for it to pass right through him. He then laughed "so we can't hit each other huh? Guess your quirks only good for defence" he said before playing with his fingers as they turned to sand. Sabaku then casually lifted his fist up and coating it in a basic layer of armament that is transparent.

He then jabbed monoma on the nose making him squeal again. "Hhhow! How can you hurt me!!!!" "It's my quirk idiot, of course I know how to beat it with my bare hands". Monoma then raised his hands defensively but Sabaku rammed his left fist into his gut making him wheeze like a squeaky toy as his eyes rolled back and he was blasted away bouncing off the cage.

Funny enough he turned to sand and went through it landing into the wall. Sabaku then did the same and walked through the now opened door towards his next challenge. As he entered he smirked as he saw deku walking through with his hero complex radiating off him. He looked to be mildly injured based on the light bruises on his face and arm.

"Sabaku-san!!!! I will defeat you just like uraraka san!! And become the best hero!!!" He said with passion as he....clenched...his...fist...

Did he just say he beat up the marshmallow girl that had a crush on him. I'm pretty sure he just "smashed" any chances he had with getting with uraraka. Wonder if I should stew the pot with her so she drops her fixation on the broccoli. Mina will know what to do, she likes screwing with school couples a lot. Reminds me of middle school abit actually, anyway he thought as he cracked his knuckles. "This is gonna be fun"
