[MHCISQD] Chapter 179: Unexpected Result but Understandable

Soon after, many examinees also rushed here to provide support, and as the number of people increased, the stress on the hero side gradually decreased.

At the same time, with a gust of wind blowing by, Gang Orca finally broke free from Renault's ultimate move control.

Or rather, the duration of the move had ended.

His whole body was so dry that it was unbearable, and even a part of his skin was slightly burned. It's important to note that his Quirk is Orcinus, which made him no different from a killer whale, and yet the moisture on his skin was evaporated, causing him to suffer from burns.

"I've withstood this move. So, what else do you have?" Gang Orca was now truly angry.

However, before he could take the next step, a broadcast sounded in the exam field.

*BEEP~~~*

"As of now, all standby HUCs have been rescued from the danger zone. Although this is our unilateral decision, the provisional hero license exam is now over. After calculating the scores, the results of the exam will be announced on-site. Those who are injured, please go to the medical room, and others, please change clothes and wait patiently for the results."

"It's over." Looking over at Gang Orca, Renault waved to him and then walked toward the open safe passage to change clothes.

At this time, Gang Orca's sidekicks also walked over, apologizing, "Sorry, Boss, we didn't complete the mission well."

"It's just that wearing restraint equipment is inconvenient for movement."

Listening to his sidekicks' comments, Gang Orca shook his head and said, "No, even without this equipment, it wouldn't have been that easy."

Recalling Renault, who showed no obvious signs of fatigue from beginning to end, Gang Orca said with a slightly serious tone, "Even if time dragged on, it's hard to say what the results would have been. This year's U.A. is really amazing. I finally understand why All Might is so at ease. Each and every one of them has unlimited potential for the future."

Not only Renault, but also Todoroki and Yoarashi from Shiketsu, who briefly fought, have shown that they have much greater strength than their peers, and becoming a Pro Hero is only a matter of time.

"But, to get the provisional hero license this time, it may take a little more time for those two kids," Gang Orca looked at the group of examinees walking towards the safe passage and lowered his voice.

After changing into their school uniforms, Renault walked out of the changing room and ran into Todoroki, who was in the other changing room. Renault waved to him, and the two of them walked together toward the direction of the exam room.

As they walked, Renault said, "Todoroki, prepare yourself mentally."

"You mean..." Todoroki didn't need him to elaborate, as he knew exactly what he was referring to. "It was a big mistake, and it's definitely not something that should have happened. I know that I'm not qualified."

"Are you feeling regretful?"

"I'm just human, so of course I am," Todoroki shook his head. "But it's my own fault, and I should bear the consequences. I won't complain too much. I failed this time, but I will succeed next time."

"That's a good attitude," Renault patted his shoulder. "But don't be too pessimistic. Maybe in the eyes of the examiners, it's not as serious as you think?"

Although he said that, both of them knew that this exam was very important to Todoroki, and it was very uncertain what the result would be for him.

Half an hour later, all one hundred exam participants had gathered in the exam room, where a podium and a large screen had been set up. The examiner, who still looked like he hadn't slept, addressed the students, "You've all worked hard through this long exam. Now, before we announce the results, I want to explain the grading method. Your scores will be determined through a double deduction by the Hero Public Safety Commission and HUC. This means that we assess how well you handled crisis situations and took the correct actions. In any case, the names of the qualified candidates will be listed in alphabetical order on the large screen."

Then, a list of names appeared on the screen, with the names of each qualified candidate shown in alphabetical order. Renault quickly found his name, which was as he had expected.

However, after looking through the list, he didn't see Todoroki's name.

He glanced at Todoroki, who shook his head calmly. He seemed to have already prepared himself mentally.

At this moment, some of the Class A students exclaimed, "Huh? Both Todoroki and Bakugo didn't pass?"

It turned out that not only Todoroki but Bakugo as well.

From the way Bakugo looked like he wanted to eat someone, Renault could tell that he wasn't happy. But that was expected of him. Although he was strong, his weaknesses were also quite obvious. Asking him to save someone calmly was unlikely, and just on that point alone, his score would have been below the passing line.

"Todoroki!"

The voice of Yoarashi sounded and Todoroki turned to see him approaching with a serious expression.

It's worth mentioning that Yoarashi's name wasn't on the big screen, so it seems that their previous mistake caused both of them to lose points.

Yoarashi stood in front of Todoroki and suddenly bowed, hitting his head directly on the ground. "I'm sorry! You didn't pass because of my mistake! It's because of my narrow-mindedness, I'm sorry!"

Todoroki was taken aback but quickly responded, "It's not necessary to say that, this is also my fault."

While their situation was put aside, the examiner continued speaking after a pause. Everyone's scores were also distributed, detailing each person's shortcomings and deductions.

"Of course, for those who didn't pass, don't give up, you still have a chance."

This sentence immediately caught the attention of those who didn't pass.

"Don't be discouraged by your score. Later on, you will have the opportunity to participate in a special three-month training course. During this course, you can showcase your achievements in the individual exam, and upon success, you will be granted a provisional hero license. As you may know, the first round of the exam is known as the elimination exam. We are committed to nurturing the one hundred candidates who pass this round. That's why we encourage everyone to stay until the end. Based on the results, all of you have shown great potential, surpassing even the qualified candidates. Please keep in mind that the special training course and your studies will run together, which may be tiring. So, please give it your best effort."

After Renault finished listening to this long speech, he looked at Todoroki and said, "Let's do our best."

"Yeah, we will catch up with you soon."

At this point, the provisional hero license exam ended successfully.

After leaving the stadium, it was time for everyone to return to school.

Seeing Aizawa talking to Joke from Ketsubutsu High, Renault thought for a moment and decided to go over. The exam was over, so it was time to bring up that matter.
