The competitive air lingered around the stadium where the Superhero License Exams would be held. Superheroes of all ages and sizes were there, doing all they could to focus and get rid of the unnecessary baggage of nervousness they had within. Each individual had their own way of coming to terms with their anxiousness. One of them banged his head against the wall, another muttered a soft prayer while holding beads in his hands, and there were others who started writing the character for man in Japanese. As minutes passed, the air became heavier, more intense. There was even a hint of bloodthirst in the air, coming out of individuals who are in it to rise to the top no matter what.
"Wow, talk about intense," Midori said to himself, swiveling his head around, taking in the scenery in front of him. Compared to the Inter-High Tournament, the Superhero License Exam had an even more competitive vibe. He felt himself choking up.
