The academy was also buzzing with news of an upcoming assessment a simulation exercise in a dimensional gate that would test each student's combat and survival skills.
Dabi was thrilled. This was an opportunity not only to showcase his progress but also to test his limits in a real-world scenario.
Rina and Taro shared his excitement, and they decided to team up for the simulation.
On the day of the assessment, the students gathered at the academy's central plaza, where a massive portal shimmered in the air, casting an otherworldly glow across the area.
Each team was instructed to enter the gate and complete various objectives, which included eliminating monsters, rescuing imaginary hostages, and retrieving specific artifacts.
As they stepped through the portal, Dabi felt the familiar rush of dimensional energy surrounding him.
