At the end of the passage, there is light.

The noon sun beats on the forest path, illuminating the surrounding trees in a very beautiful way. The old trees that have grown for an unknown number of years, blowing in the slightly salty breeze, the branches and leaves sway, the tree shadows sway, and make a rustling sound, revealing

A peaceful and quiet place.

Whoosh…

The soft sound of clothes swaying in the wind was accompanied by the sound of three chaotic footsteps approaching.

"This new outfit is nice!"

Feeling the movement, Marklov, who was sitting upright on the big rock, slowly opened his old but energetic eyes and looked at Kira, who was standing in front of him, blocking the sunlight with his body.

Kira first looked around and saw that several people had gathered here.

Gajeel and Lebby were the first to arrive because they took the "quiet" road. At this moment, the two of them were sitting together, as if they were "flirting", and there was a sour smell;

Natsu and Happy only took a short time to clear the level under Gildarts' severe stress. Now they are feeling a little depressed, while Gildarts and Happy are having a great time;

It took about 15 minutes for me, Lucy, and Cana to play cards, which was relatively fast. Currently, there are only the Felide group, Gray group, Meister group, Elfman and Juvia group.

"Well... there's no need to hold out hope for Juvia's group. They should be taken to the camp by Erza after they are defeated. I just hope that Erza didn't attack them so hard just now; as for Mester and Wendy,

He should still be on the island at this moment."

Judging from Kira's perception of magic, the path chosen by these people is no different from the original work. The only difference is that because of himself and Laxus, Felide's group also passed the first stage of the assessment.

.

"Gildas told me, is your news true, Kira?"

Marklov had a solemn look on his face. Tenrou Island is not only the holy land of Fairy Tail, it is also the place where the tomb of the first president Mavis is located. It is his own territory!

This kind of place is about to be invaded by the dark guild "Devil's Heart", and even the legendary black mage Zeref is likely to be here, which makes Marklov completely unable to calm down.

"It's absolutely true! When has my information ever been wrong?"

Marklov's expression became solemn again: "In that case, I want to suspend the assessment and prepare for the battle!"

Whether it is out of the responsibility of "president", or out of the identity of "parent" or "examiner", this decision is right, but this is not what Kira wants to see!

After all, in that case, this assessment... would be too boring!

"Why? Wouldn't it be enough to include the 'Devil's Heart' in the assessment?"

"Nonsense!" Marklov scolded and said, "This guild has existed for too long! No one knows how deep their background is! Although they are both one of the triangles of the 'Balam Alliance', the 'Devil'

Their hearts are no better than those of the Six Demon Generals, and their strength cannot be easily assessed!"

Kira sat down next to Marklov and said: "Don't worry, President! You should also know that their high-level combat capabilities are almost useless! There are still two of my undercovers there, and the rest are just miscellaneous

Soldier! Isn’t this just the perfect test subject for them?”

But Marklov's attitude is still tough: "That's not okay! As a parent, I can't put my children in danger!"

"How can they grow without going through training?" Kira retorted, "I think this level of danger is just right. It can not only stimulate their potential, but also improve their ability to respond to crises."

"There will be bigger enemies waiting for them in the future... no, they are waiting for us!"

Marklov's heart skipped a beat: "Who else?"

He knew that he would never let anything go without adding anything. If he said this, he must have known something.

"Anyway, it is a more dangerous opponent than the upcoming 'Devil's Heart'!"

Hearing Kira's words, Marklov fell into silence. If that was the case, maybe Kira was right. It would be a better choice to let these young eagles protected by his wings spread their wings in advance.

.

But...do you really want to do this? What if something happens...

Seeing that Marklov's heart seemed to be a little loose, Kira struck while the iron was hot and made a wave of slander: "How about this? Tell them the situation and let them choose for themselves?"

Marklov glanced up at Kira and said, "Do they still need to think about their choice?"

As the saying goes, a child is better than his father. For Fairy Tail, Marklov knew exactly what the characters of these children were and what choices they would make when faced with such a situation.

"hey-hey……"

Kira was not surprised when he saw that Marklov had revealed his trick and just smiled.

While a few people were chatting, three groups, Philid and Bigusro, Gray and Rocky, and Elfman and Elba Green, also arrived one after another.

Laxus did not follow. After finishing the assessment, he returned directly to the camp to prepare for the next battle.

Mira didn't come either. She and Erza were taking care of Juvia and Lisanna at the camp.

"There are quite a few people who have passed..."

Looking around and counting carefully, Marklov was surprised to find that only two groups of people were eliminated in the first stage of the assessment.

On the one hand, he hopes that all the children will pass; on the other hand, he hopes to keep the pass rate down and reduce the number of people who will take the next assessment.

Kira stood beside him and said pointedly: "Are you surprised? These guys have become so strong without you knowing it! So..."

He did not continue speaking, but the implication was self-evident.

"I understand what you mean! I agree, let's do it!" Marklov sighed, "It's just a bit disturbing to the first generation..."

"Wahahahaha!"

Hearing that Markov finally agreed with his opinion, Kira laughed out loud and comforted: "Don't worry, President! Seeing that Fairy Tail is so full of talents, the first generation must be very happy!"

"Is everyone here? Then..."

Marklov clasped his hands behind his back, took two steps forward, and summoned everyone present, "Now we will announce the results of the first stage of this assessment."

"Lebby and Gajeel were lucky enough to pass the 'quiet' path, a breakthrough!"

Lebby was very happy about this, but Gajeel, as her partner, was very dissatisfied: "What does 'good luck' mean?

?”

"Natsu and Happy passed Gildarts' difficulty and broke through!"

Gray was in disbelief: "Are you lying?!"

"Kana and Lucy passed Kira's test, breakthrough!"

At this point, everyone was not surprised: "Ah... no surprise, Kira must have let it slip! Isn't it true that he paid for it?"

Lucy was unconvinced and said: "That's not true! We got by completely relying on our 'strength' and 'luck'!"

"Felide and Bigusro passed Laxus's blockage and broke through!"

"Did they really fight?"

Philide stammered and explained: "It's... it's using magic..."

"Gray and Rocky defeated Meister and Wendy in the 'fight', breakthrough! Finally... Elfman and Elba Green defeated Mira, breakthrough!"

"Nani?! How did you do that?"

Elfman and Elba Green were so bruised that they had to help each other to stand up. They were the most seriously injured here.

"That can't be said!

As a man..."

"Well... I can only say that I caught a slight gap!"

Seeing their faces turn red, Lucy, Happy and Kira suddenly became interested and started eating online.

Gray looked around and asked, "Did Juvia lose the election?"

"If you think about it through elimination, what's left is..."

Erza! The female knight who will never let off steam!

Everyone's expressions instantly fell, and even Marklov was helpless and looked up to the sky in melancholy.

He also knew in his heart that it would be difficult for just two people to defeat the active S-class magicians, so there was actually a hint that they could be a little more cautious and not take it too seriously when it came to fighting, but Erza didn't seem to realize it at all.

"In short, the teams that broke through the first stage are these six groups!"
Chapter completed!
