Ten days later, in anticipation, the Fairy Tail S-class magician promotion exam officially kicked off.

And this assessment method also caused an uproar among the nine candidates who participated in the competition.

"Magic Baking Battle? What kind of assessment is this, whether to select S-class magicians or chefs. Natsu looked at the exam requirements in his hand with extreme dissatisfaction, and his mouth spewed flames.

"Shut up, since it was arranged by the president and Mr. Ajma, there must be a reason for them." Gray said with a frown on the side.

According to the rules, the contestants were divided into three groups, namely Group A of Elsa, Natsu and Gray, Group B of Mirajane, Elufman and Doranbart, and Group C of the "Thor".

They will act as a squad throughout the assessment process, each team has 12 points, and when they complete the task, they will get the corresponding points, and the team that fails the task will deduct a part accordingly, and the task points between each team will be divided equally among each member.

However, in the course of the competition, there is a setting called "Assault", when a contestant meets certain conditions and can attack a specific player, then the attacked player will be deducted a certain amount of personal points. Therefore, in the process of the competition, it is necessary not only to consider teamwork, but also to guard against enemy attacks at all times, and to look for opportunities to focus on attacking threatening opponents.

And don't forget, there are also attacks from the "mystery people" during the assessment, and Kildas are not polite, and they will try to stop the team from completing the mission at any time and in any way possible without violating the rules. They can't attack the contestants directly, but they can take the initiative to withstand the contestants' attacks in some cases, because according to the rules, attacking the "mystery person" will be deducted a certain amount of personal points.

In short, while the rules may seem like flying chess, if they are strictly followed, they are much more difficult than regular magic tests.

Moreover, although the team is separated, in the final analysis, this is still an individual battle, so while guarding against the opponent's attack, you also have to watch out for your teammates, and the guy who can come up with this kind of rule must have a pervert living in his heart.

The venue was set up in a martial arts arena near the guild, and President Makarov took the entire venue and spent three full days renovating it, turning it into a huge magic kitchen, with a lot of familiar but strange magic crystals on the cooking table, making it look even more attractive than an amusement park.

At the suggestion of Renault, who has a keen sense of business, a week ago, news about the Fairy Tail Demon was promoted to the streets, and on the day of the examination, Makarov set up a stall in front of the venue to sell tickets to watch the game. As the first wizard guild of the Fiore Kingdom, the people's enthusiasm for this event was even higher than expected, hundreds of tickets were swept away, and finally the old man had to print a batch of tickets, selling two-thirds of the positions that originally belonged to the insiders, and the result was that Fairy Tail himself was miserable and crowded in a small corner, looking at the interested audience around him.

The venue is very lively, and the sound of cheering for the players can be heard at any time:

"Elsa-chan, come on."

"Lord Field, you must succeed."

"Abba Greene, Abba Greene, Abba Greene!"

"Mira-chan ~ Although you rejected me, I still love you~"

Shouts like this come and go.

"What the hell are they doing, old man!" Mira stood at the starting point with a black line, "It's like an entertainment show." ”

"That's not bad, right?" Doran Barth, who is also one of the seeded players and is good at teleportation magic and memory magic, said with a smile.

"It feels like we're clowns." Mira said she was very unhappy.

"Then come on and let everyone see your best side."

Boom!

Hearing the sound of gongs and drums, a square pillar slowly rose in the center of the venue, and on the top of the column stood Mr. Yajima, dressed as a chef, who cleared his throat and used his magic to cover the entire venue.

"S-level Demon Jin Exam, officially starts, the first item, the recipe battle!"

Another gong sounded, and this time without the slightest hesitation, the nine figures turned into black lines and rushed towards the cooking table in front of them.

There were three cookbooks on the cooking table, but the difficulty was high and low, and the scores obviously represented were also different, and none of the nine people had any intention of giving in, and they all walked towards the cooking table with a huge A word written on it in the middle.

After only two steps, they came to the first level, the butter track.

As the name suggests, this is a road covered with butter, for the production of this level, Renault deliberately ran all over the city's restaurants, bought all their expired butter, sticky and slippery grease spread on the road, making this flat track extremely dangerous, Renault went out of his way to try it himself, even with his balance ability, he had to be careful on this road, not to mention the nine competitors who sprinted with all their might.

"Whoa!"

Unsurprisingly, Natsu was the first to suffer.

As a genuine dragon slayer wizard who gets motion sickness on any means of transportation, Natsu's balance is incomprehensibly poor, and the track is hell for him, and he can get on the ground in under three steps in any position. He's been fluttering there for a long time, and he hasn't run five meters yet, but this track is a full hundred meters.

The Butter Track is not only dangerous, the 100-meter track is less than four meters wide, which means that it cannot accommodate all of them together, while the sides of the track are unobstructed and suspended in the air, and below is a set flour pool, once you fall into the flour pool, you will directly deduct 10 points for your team.

Yes, negative points are allowed in this game, so fouls will not be eliminated, but it is a shame.

Aside from Natsu, the other magicians can be said to have their own abilities.

Elsa changed into a pair of slender armor and planned to glide through the butter track like a ski. Mira, on the other hand, shook her body and turned into a swan, wanting to fly straight over. Elufman gave a run-up, then lay on his stomach on the track, ready to use inertia to rush straight over. The three people of the "Thor" are much more elegant, one of them stepped on a small puppet that looked like a totem, floating at a low altitude on the upper part of the track, although the speed was not very fast but a steady batch.

The most calm in the audience are Gray and Doran Bart, Gray, as a styling wizard, it is not an exaggeration to say that he has 10,000 ways to pass this level perfectly. And Doran Bart, this guy can teleport, okay.

All the runners are on the track, and they see that the first level is about to pass, but this is a level carefully designed by Renault, can it be that simple?

Burst!

Without warning, several holes opened in the track, one of which was right in front of Elufman, who was rushing forward, and the man, who had no means of changing direction, rushed straight out of the hole perfectly, and fell into the flour pool below, where he was already covered in a layer of butter, and then plunged into the flour pile, and when he appeared, he looked like unoiled balls.

"Group A, -10 points!"

And the upper part of the track is woven a dense power grid, no need to ask it must be Lagers's hand, the sudden current made the three people who planned to fly over Mira and Thor suffer enough, even if it is for his own people, Lagersas does not have the slightest intention of sparing, from this point of view, he is a dutiful horse as a staff member.

Three of the four were blown up by electricity, and only Pyguthro was fine because he didn't have that much hair.

Then they all fell back onto the track and fell solidly on their backs.

Only Elsa was far ahead on the field, and I saw the fairy queen driving her "oil board" on the track, dodging one strange trap roadblock after another, and her gorgeous posture immediately aroused the enthusiasm of the audience, and the applause came one after another.

"Looks like I'm going to have to go, too." Gray nodded at Doran Balt beside him, his left fist slammed into his right palm, and the icy magic overflowed from his body.

"ICE MAKE!"

Two long chains shot out from his palms, snapping directly onto the ground at the end of the track, and an ice-made skateboard appeared under his feet, shrinking the chains and carrying him swiftly towards the finish line. Halfway through, he also picked up the fluttering Natsu by the way.

Gray ...... Vehicle...... Vomit! ”

Probably except for Harpy, Natsu reacts to any object or creature that can move quickly, and the moment he is caught by Gray, the Flame Slayer enters a state of weakness......

In the blink of an eye, Group B was far ahead, and a visual victory was in sight.

"Alas, I can't be blamed for this, the rules are like this, and I won't compete fairly with you." Doranbart shook his head slightly, and the next moment, he appeared directly next to the cooking table, next to the recipe of A and so on.

"I'm sorry, but we won." His hand reached for the cookbook.
