7 ZAP!

After Midnight announced the start of the first game, the students began walking, jogging, and then running in order to reach the gateway.

Getting a place at the front was important, but the large number of students was a real problem, as students jostled and there was severe crowding at the entrance and the gateway.

The students of Class 1-A were also inside that chaos, crowding and pushing, trying to reach the race track, but it was almost impossible to reach the end of this corridor.

The long corridor had more than 100 students in it, all of them just wanting to get to the race track, but this simple goal was difficult to achieve in that crowd, especially for the people in the middle or back of the crowd.

As for the people in front, they were entering the sandy track and running, happy because they took advantage of the opportunity and took the lead.

In the midst of that crowding, Fulan said in a calm tone:

"So, this can already be considered one of the obstacles. The race has already begun. Whoever can fly or is in the front can enter the race track, but for us, we will be very late. What a cunning start."

Fulan was not the only person who came to this conclusion, rather, a large number of students were able to understand the hidden truth behind this crowding in the corridor.

At that moment, Todoroki moved his right foot slightly above the ground, saying;

"Since the race has already started, then excuse me..."

*Freeze!!!*

Todoroki unleashed an ice attack that caused a large number of students to freeze their feet, as blue-white air came out from the gate. This air was extremely cold and was caused by the sudden spread of ice flakes.

Immediately after this, Todroki ran out of the corridor, thinking that he would be far ahead of the rest of the students.

But the students of Class 1-A knew that Todoroki would do something like this, so most of them avoided waiting for that ice by using their abilities.

Other students from other classes were also able to free themselves from the ice and exit the corridor. But a large group of students were stuck in that ice;

"Damn! I can't move my legs!"

"Huh?! This is not fair!"

"Am I going to lose before the race even starts?"

Fulan was able to hear all these phrases, because he was stuck in the ice as well.

He was able to move all the parts of his body, except for his feet, which were touched by the ice. But unlike the rest of the students, he was not nervous, but rather smiling, as he said while looking at his feet covered in ice:

"This is impressive, this is what it means to be a student at UA. Such ability is impossible to see in my old academy. This makes me... Want to compete too!"

*Zap!!*

A few small purple sparks of electricity passed around Fulan's face and body, and his purple hair moved slightly as if it was being caressed by the wind.

Immediately after this, Fulan bowed down and placed his palm on the icy ground, saying;

[ Electro Wave! ]

*Zap!!*

*Crash!!*

Purple sparks of electricity quickly spread across the ice floor, causing all the ice flakes to break and melt.

"Huh? What just happened?"

"The ice flakes were broken and some of them were melted!"

"Was it because of the purple sparks of electricity? That's great!"

"I can finally finish the race!"

Fulan not only freed himself, but also all the students who were stuck in the ice.

Immediately after the ice surrounding his feet broke, Fulan started running, trying to catch up with the students ahead of him. Behind him, there was a crowd of students who were also running, but they were thankful for him.

When he finally arrived at the sandy track, the commentator Yamada said;

"What is this?! A large number of students entering the race track at the same time?! How were they able to extract themselves from the ice at the same time?!"

A large number of students who had exited the corridor earlier looked back while they were running, feeling curious about what had happened. And when Todoroki, who was at the front, heard these words, he did not look back like the rest of the students, because in front of him there was a huge robot the size of a three-storey house. Then he said in a calm tone after moving his right hand in the air towards that robot;

"Is it just a coincidence? Or did an idiot melt all my ice?"

*Freeze!!!*

The ice quickly spread over the surface of the ground and reached the huge robot that was trying to crush Todoroki, and in less than three seconds, the huge metal robot turned into a huge ice statue.

The right cheek of Todoroki's face was covered with a light crust of ice, as he sighed and very cold white air came out of his mouth, and his hair was shaking left and right.

All the students behind him were surprised, including Kirishima, who was very close to the robot that had frozen, as he said while he was surprised;

"With one attack? You must be kidding."

Next to Kirishima was a student from Class 1-B, TetsuTetsu, who said while looking at the robot that had turned into an ice statue;

"Wait... isn't this robot kind of falling over?"

At that same moment, Todoroki, who passed between the feet of the giant robot, said;

"Since I froze it while it was moving, then it will fall immediately..."

Todoroki escaped before the huge robot begins to collapse, but he left a real obstacle for both Kirishima and TetsuTetsu who were trying to catch up with him.

At the same time, at the back of the race, Fulan looked at the giant robots, and said while he was running;

"Isn't the size of those robots a little exaggerated?"
