Over the course of the week, the eight contestants in the assessment raced against time to strengthen themselves.

At the same time, they also found their own partners.

Natsu's choice of partner is Harpy, which is no surprise at all. Of course, if the assessment is a race, it is estimated that it will be very advantageous.

Gray's chosen partner is the star spirit of Leo – Loki. This guy ran out on his own, and temporarily broke off the contract with Lucy, relying on his magic to open a door through it.

However, he showed up to help Gray to fulfill the promise he had made to Gray a year ago, and although he was a star spirit, he still carried the symbol of Fairy Tail, so no one would say anything.

Wendy's partner is a feather coat...... That's right, it's the feather coat.

When they heard the news, Elusa, Jubia, and Lucy, who had seen Susanoo, were silent. Lin Yu's eyelids also jumped.

Jubia's partner is Lisanna, because Lisanna enthusiastically recommended herself, Jubia was embarrassed to refuse.

Kana's partner would be Lucy. On the snowy night after the announcement of the candidates, Lucy took Kana, who had fallen drunk and collapsed in the alley, and was about to freeze to death, back to her residence, listened to Kana's distress, and made up her mind to help her.

Philid's partner is Pyguslo, who is also a member of the Thor.

Elfman's partner is the only woman in Thor, Ayba Grin.

Lebby's partner is Guggill.

Except for Wendy, the other seven people chose the same partners as in the original book.

In the original book, Wendy was not chosen, and the eighth candidate was actually an undercover agent sent into Fairy Tail by the Freshman Senate - Mester.

is different from the original book, Wendy has joined Fairy Tail since seven years ago, and she has long been recognized by everyone, and her efforts to be selected have been seen by everyone and silently voted for her.

And even though it was the Freshman Council, they also received a warning from the Fiori Kingdom that they were not allowed to target the fairy tail without authorization. Although the new legislator was very unconvinced, he was forced by the pressure of the government but did not dare to act on his own.

So, Mester was not sent out either.

------

A week is fleeting.

Eight candidates and their partners met at the port of Harugion.

Sitting on a large boat painted with a fairy tail logo, a group of 15 people and three cats embarked on a trip to Sirius Island.

------

The sea as far as the eye can see, and the sun hangs high in the sky.

A huge ship sails on the calm sea.

"It's so hot!"

Lucy was wearing a swimsuit, lying on the chaise longue with a big thorn, there was no beauty at all, and she was sweating profusely, "It's winter, why is it so hot!" ”

"It is said that convection makes the weather here look like this all year round."

Kana sat next to her, her head hanging listlessly on the table, and said quietly.

"Sister Yuyi, aren't you hot?"

Wendy looked at Feather Coat still wearing a white robe, looking at the book demurely, and couldn't help but ask.

"The change in the weather doesn't affect me much."

Haji smiled and shook his head.

"Huh?"

Wendy nodded as if she didn't understand, and then smiled: "But Sister Yu Yi can also heal the magic of balance, I thought that without Brother Lin Yu this time, after getting on the boat, I am afraid that I will be dizzy all the way!" Thank you so much, Sister Yuroi. ”

Feather smiled and didn't say anything more, continuing to read the book.

"Xia Lulu, I didn't expect you to come with me."

Wendy turned her head to look at Xia Lulu, who was sitting on the table and looking at Xia Lulu who was distracted in the distance, and said helplessly: "The president only said that let the contestants who participated in the assessment and their partners go to Sirius Island, you and Li Li will violate the rules if you follow them like this, right?" ”

"Don't worry, I will only watch this assessment from the sidelines, and I will not interfere in your affairs, which is not a violation of the rules."

Xia Lulu replied, looking into the distance, "What are those pictures ...... No, I'm not reassured, but if something happens, what can I do? It seems that I can only ask for feather clothing. There's that kind of magic like a god! I'm sure no one can hurt Wendy in her hands! ”

"That's?"

At this moment, Lisanna, who was standing in front of the deck railing, suddenly stared intently at the sea in the distance, where a shadow loomed.

"It should be an island."

Everyone followed her gaze, and their faces showed nervousness and excitement.

"That's Sirius Island!"

"It's here!"

"The shape?"

When the ship got closer, everyone could finally get a glimpse of the island.

They looked in amazement at the huge island in front of them, and in the middle of that island, there was a huge tree, which shocked them, because at the top of this tree, there was an island not much smaller than the island below, an amazing island within an island.

"Is that the holy land of our Fairy Tail!"

A look of amazement and yearning appeared on everyone's faces.

"Legendary...... That island was once inhabited by goblins. ”

"President!"

Everyone turned to look up, and looked in amazement at Makarov, who had appeared on the mast at some point.

Dressed in a fancy shirt and sweating profusely, Makarov said, "And, the first president of Fairy Tail, Mebis Viviamiglio, sleeps here." ”

"It's hot!"

Makarov took out a fan and slapped it twice before continuing: "I will now announce the details of the first round of trials. ”

"First round?"

"How many phases do you want to do this?"

Everyone looked serious.

Makarov suddenly pointed in the direction of the island and said, "You see the smoking beach over there, you have to get there first." ”

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and at a glance they saw a few wolf smoke rising into the sky on the beach of the island.

"You can only get one group per road."

Makarov continued: "Let me show you the distribution of the roads. ”

As he spoke, Makarov waved his fan to the side of the empty man, and a magical light and shadow map appeared out of thin air.

This is a thumbnail of a section of the island, on which eight roads extend upwards from the entrance, and in the center of four of them, the heads of four S-class mages are drawn, and below the avatars, the word 'Vicious War' is written.

The other four roads intersect in the middle, where the word 'fight' is written.

At the end of the eight roads, the words 'Pass the First Pass' are written, and at the top of the road, the words "Pass the First Pass".

"You each enter a passage, and the team that can pass here is considered to have passed the first level."

Pointing to the road map, Makarov said: "In the course of the battle, two teams will meet, and only the victorious side will be able to move on. Vicious warfare is a very difficult route, and you will have to defeat the S-class mage before you can pass there. ”
