Fairy Tail: You can become stronger by spending money.

In the following period of time, Cheng Feng devoted himself to the expedition commissions, and even took on a solo commission to defeat bandits.

It was also through repeated commissions that Cheng Feng gradually became familiar with the card Escanor, and also got used to receiving three cards at the same time.

However, at noon, Cheng Feng's combat state could only last for three seconds.

And this is the case when only one card from Escanor is received. If three are received, the magic reserve will be drained in an instant.

But even though it was only three seconds, Cheng Feng also said that he was incredibly strong at that time!

In addition, there is another not-so-good thing, that is, Cheng Feng in this mode has too much destructive power.

For example, when it comes to defeating monsters, three seconds is too short a time limit, so Cheng Feng swung his hand knife and shaved the nearby hill into a flat head.

For this reason, unless time is particularly tight, Cheng Feng temporarily seals the Escanor card.

Even so, if Cheng Feng had not mastered alchemy and could repair it, the complaints and various letters of report would probably have filled up the Magic Council.

Well, Yajima has worked very hard. If we can avoid bothering him, we should do so. We should not worry too much about his life in his old age.

In addition, there are more orders for Magic Potion No. 2, with the first batch of pre-orders having one thousand bottles.

Well, a small goal was achieved very easily.

The only pity is that Cheng Feng is busy with preparations, so the order has to be put on hold temporarily.

However, sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. Now that his magic power has doubled, he can devote himself to making medicine all day. If he uses up all his magic power, he can get 60 bottles of potion. A thousand bottles can be finished in days, which is not a big problem.

The most important thing now is the S-level assessment!

……

As winter approaches, the temperature this year has dropped particularly quickly. Last night, the first snow of the year fell early, and the entire Magnolia was covered with a thick layer of snow.

On this day, the Fairy Tail Guild was particularly lively.

Makarov also changed out of his previous clown-like clothes and put on the Holy Cross cloak, which represented his identity.

"Cough cough."

Makarov coughed twice, looked at the guild members gathered together, and said: "According to the ancient tradition of Fairy Tail, today is the day to announce the list of S-class wizards' upgrade assessment."

"Oh!!!"

The guild members shouted collectively, and everyone was filled with excitement.

Looking at the excited crowd, Makarov curled his lips and said helplessly: "Why are you so excited? I haven't seen you so excited in previous years. You are all just cramming at the last minute."

"Haha, that's different."

"Yeah, who doesn't want to climb up?!"

"I wish there was me! I wish there was me!"

"There should be Cheng Feng this year, right?"

"Oh my god, I just remembered, indeed, if Cheng Feng is here, the difficulty will be increased this year!"

Makarov waited until the noise from below died down before he spoke: "This year's exam venue is in the deserted land."

"hiss……"

Everyone gasped. In the Desolate Land, in the Fairy Tail world, there was a place with extremely weak magic power. However, due to geothermal reasons, it attracted many fire monsters to settle here.

There are many monsters here, and the magic power is thin, so naturally no one goes there, which leads to a large number of monsters multiplying in the wasteland. Basically every once in a while, a lot of commissions to clear out monsters in the wasteland are issued.

"I have seen the strength, heart, and soul of every person throughout this year, so this time, there are two participants in total!"

Makarov looked towards the crowd: "Cheng Feng! Laxus!"

As the list was announced, everyone sighed. While they felt sorry for not being selected, they were also convinced by the list.

Needless to say, Cheng Feng is a mission maniac and his own strength is constantly improving. Not to mention his peers, even the S-class wizards of ordinary guilds may not be Cheng Feng's opponent.

Laxus's strength is obvious to all. Originally, the number of commissions he completed was not high, but after being stimulated by Cheng Feng, he began to accept a large number of commissions and hone himself, so it is normal for him to get the qualification.

"Of course, just like in the past, only one person can pass this assessment! The content of the assessment will be revealed when we reach the Desolate Land. Cheng Feng, Laxus, do you understand?"

"Understood, Grandpa President."

"I know, Grandpa."

Cheng Feng and Laxus looked at each other and nodded in response.

"Meet at the Desolate Land in a week. During this week, you will choose a partner to take the test with you."

Makarov looked at the two of them and held up two fingers. "First, you must choose members of the Fairy Tail Guild. Second, you are not allowed to choose S-class wizards as your partners. If you don't choose a partner within a week, then you will automatically give up your qualification for the assessment."

As soon as Makarov finished speaking, Cheng Feng's expression remained calm, while Laxus was completely frozen.

Cheng Feng was not worried. After all, whether it was Erza, Mirajane, Gray, or Natsu, they all had a good relationship with him. Moreover, since it was an S-level assessment, they probably all hoped that Cheng Feng could guide them so that they could feel the assessment atmosphere in advance and prepare for their future upgrade to S-level.

As for Laxus, although he has changed a little at this stage, he has not yet established a good relationship with the members of the guild. As for the future Thunder Gods, they have not yet joined the guild, so Laxus is in trouble.

Laxus glanced at Cheng Feng, who spread his hands and said, "I'm also a test taker, so I can't help you."

Laxus looked gloomy for a moment and looked at the others.

When the guild members saw this scene, they all laughed, but they didn’t mean to laugh at Laxus. Instead, they remembered Laxus’ dark history.

Seeing that he was a little embarrassed, some people took the initiative to find Laxus and recommend themselves.

After all, even if it’s not you who takes the S-level assessment, being able to help others and gain some experience yourself is also a very good thing.

Laxus also got rid of the embarrassment and finally formed a team with Marcus, a wizard who used sand magic.

As for Cheng Feng...

"Cheng Feng, choose me. The geothermal heat over there is strong. I have ice attribute, which can restrain those fire monsters."

"I want to go too. I use Fire Dragon Slayer Magic, and flames have no effect on me!"

"like!"

"Don't interrupt, Harpy. Cheng Feng, I'll go with you. We both receive magic, so we're a perfect match!"

"Do you need help? My armor has pretty good defensive capabilities."

"..."

Looking at the noisy people surrounding him, there is no doubt that Cheng Feng is very popular in the guild.

After thinking carefully for a moment, Cheng Feng looked at Mirajane, who had been restrained recently but still wore hot clothes and hot pants with a ponytail, and said, "Mira, please go with me."

"Yeah! I knew you would choose me!"

Mirajane jumped up, rushed over, hooked her arm around Cheng Feng's neck and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely make you an S-class wizard!"
