NOVEL WEB Cultivator
When the students return to the academy the next day, they expected another grueling trial or at least something on the same level, but to their disappointment, it went on just like any other class. English, math, cooking, and many other basic lessons. It was boring to say the least.
Though that all changed when the afternoon portion arrive.
"I came! Through the door like a normal person!" The students were both thrilled and shocked, they found it unbelievable that the number 1 Pro Hero known throughout the world was going to be teaching them. After all, it's the hero that they could only observe from afar but could never get close, perhaps something like a worldwide celebrity, or somewhere around that level of influence.
So, when they realized someone like that is going to be their teacher for the rest of the semester, they couldn't help but feel a bit proud about it.
"Now, all of you may already know about me, I am sure of it! But the real MVP isn't me!"
"Huh?"
"Hahaha! I can tell at one glance that all of you were confused by just looking at the dumbfounded expression on your face. Admittedly, this is something that even the academy didn't anticipate, but it is what it is," he nodded as if he understood their plight, "but no worries, there's a first to everything! Well then, let me introduce you to someone that will also guide you all alongside me, come on in."
They didn't know what to expect, but when they saw a long white-haired man with a calm demeanor slowly walk into the class, they immediately realized he wasn't just a normal guy. First of all, he's just as tall as Allmight, but his build is on the slim side. Plus, there's something about him that makes them feel nervous. When his gazes fall onto them, they feel buck naked as if he had seen everything there is.
They all have one thought in mind, 'who is this?' Although Midoriya was just as surprised as them, he didn't have the same thought as he pondered why his teacher was here. Unlike Allmight, he isn't a Pro Hero but his strength is undoubtedly strong. That was why it's reasonable that the students were confused by his appearance, they had never seen him on TV before.
"His name is Zhang Yu, from now on, he will be guiding you all alongside me."
Even more surprising, Allmight seems to know him. The students couldn't help but wonder what kind of person he is. The girls on the other hand couldn't look away from him the moment their eyes land on him. After all, he's attractive. His calm demeanor makes them feel strangely secure as, even if a meteor might crash into the Academy at this very moment, they would still be left unscathed.
"I'm a humble cultivator, please to meet you all," he ends his introduction with a charming smile. But a few seconds later, they tilted their head in confusion as they wonder what he meant by 'cultivator.' Some of them feel like they have heard of it from somewhere before but can't quite recall when was it, and what it means. Seeing that it was an opportunity to showcase his knowledge, Midoriya coughed up as to attract their attention to him before he started explaining what cultivator really means.
Long story short, he's a martial artist who cultivates 'Qi', it was an energy that has been around in the air since forever, which strengthens his body to the utmost limit. He then proudly claims that with a single punch, Zhang Yu could easily obliterate a building in one go. Although his claim was nothing but the truth, his classmates feel like he exaggerated it a tad too much, especially when he told them that he was also quirkless.
They find it hard to believe that in a world of quirks, a quirkless could also do just as much damage as people blessed with quirk. After all, they have never heard of such a thing before. They also didn't know that Allmight, the number 1 Pro Hero they all admire was also once quirkless.
"Stop lying, Deku! There's no way a quirkless like you could get this far without cheating! I swear I will expose your trick one day!" Bakugou still remembers the embarrassment he felt yesterday. He stubbornly believes someone who should've been his stepping stone must have cheated somehow, otherwise, it is just impossible for him to get here as quirkless.
He's also very adamant about Midoriya being quirkless, he simply can't accept someone who he used to look down upon was able to trick him this long. Midoriya was supposed to be the least amazing person in the group! Bakugou thought he should be the only kid from his school to attend such a prestigious academy, then one day, he will topple the number 1 Pro Hero and becomes the most amazing person in the world! That's how it should have been!
But for some inexplicable reason, Midoriya didn't just get accepted alongside him, he also excelled in yesterday's trials and steal the number 1 spot. 'Then there's me, I got the fourth place! Fourth! This is the first time in my life I had been this embarrassed!' So he thought while glaring at the unblemished green-haired boy. He had one goal, and that is to figure out how Midoriya cheat.
"Your name is Katsuki Bakugou, right?"
"Huh? Yeah, what about it?"
In response to his rude behavior, Zhang Yu calmly smiles. There wasn't anything else for him to say since the boy will soon learn his place and come to regret his action. He didn't even need to make his move, a small talk with Midoriya boy later will be more than enough. While the students were perplexed by his action just like the irritated spiky hair boy, the person himself didn't mind the awkwardness in the air as he urge Allmight to speak up with his hand.
"Alright, that's enough introduction! Hahaha, well then, let's get right into it. For this class, we will be building up your hero foundation through various trials! And of course, it is none other than the Trial of Battle!"
