After all, I've watched a lot of anime, so by comparing myself to others, I can know my approximate level.
According to the algorithm in the One Piece world, he should be at the level of a Marine Admiral or one of the Four Emperors.
According to the Fairy Tail world's algorithm, he should at least be one of the Ten Wizard Saints.
This level of skill would make him a strong character in any anime.
All of this is thanks to his extraordinary comprehension and the two golden fingers of the chat group.
It seems like I can explore other worlds more often in the future; who knows, I might discover something unexpected.
Early the next morning, Lu Li went to the Fairy Tail guild.
He's been busy cultivating lately and hasn't been to the guild for almost a week. It's time for him to do some quests and earn some living expenses.
When Lu Li arrived at the guild, he saw that there were many people gathered there, including some faces that he rarely saw on ordinary days.
Although there were many people, the guild was much quieter than usual.
"Lu Li! Over here! Over here!"
Natsu saw Lu Li and immediately beckoned him over.
Lu Li walked over and sat down: "There are so many people in the guild! Is something the matter?"
"This is a very important matter..."
Natsu hadn't finished speaking.
The door on the second floor of the guild was opened.
Makarov and Kirdas came out of the room, and Makarov jumped onto the second-floor railing.
"President!!!"
"I've been waiting for you for so long~~~!"
"Announce it quickly!"
"Who is it this year?"...
The once quiet guild suddenly became noisy, with everyone extremely excited.
"Ahem! In accordance with Fairy Tail's long-standing tradition, the list of participants for the S-Class Mage Upgrade Test will be announced soon!"
"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!!"
The guild members all shouted excitedly.
Upon hearing this, Lu Li remembered that Fairy Tail holds S-class mage assessments at the end of the year, and it seemed that Fairy Tail hadn't produced a new S-class mage for quite some time.
In the anime, the S-class mages of Fairy Tail are all rising stars of Fairy Tail. Currently, the only S-class mage in Fairy Tail is Uncle Gildarts.
"S-class wizard?"
He wants it too!
Chapter 47 Qualifications
Every guild mage aspires to become an S-rank mage; it is the goal that every guild mage strives for.
The same applies to Lu Li; being an S-class mage is not only an honor and a status, but also a symbol of strength.
Furthermore, becoming an S-rank mage allows you to accept missions of S-rank or higher.
The rewards for these missions are very generous. Even a random S-rank mission will reward you with at least 800 million J, which is equivalent to about 50 RMB.
A single opening can feed you for a whole year.
Makarov: "I have carefully observed your individual strengths, minds, and souls over the past year. There are two participants this time."
"Two?!"
"Why are there so few participants this time?"
"In the past, there were at least three participants, but none of them succeeded in becoming S-class mages."
"I wonder who will be selected?"
……
When the guild members heard Makarov say that there were only two participants, they couldn't help but discuss among themselves. They had thought that since the guild had more and stronger mages this year, there would be more spots available, but unexpectedly, the number had decreased.
Makarov quickly announced the name of the first participant: "Laxus Dole!"
"It's Laxus!"
"There's definitely a Laxus!"
"Laxus is so strong, it's only natural that he's here too."
……
Like other worlds, in the world of Fairy Tail, bloodlines are extremely important in the magical realm.
The more powerful a person's magic, the more outstanding their offspring's magical talent will be.
There's an old Chinese saying: "Like begets like." This is exactly what it means to be born knowing how to burrow.
Laxus inherited powerful magic from Makarov right after he was born.
However, for children, the stronger the magic, the greater the burden on their bodies, because their organs are not yet mature and cannot withstand the powerful magic, which is why many of them die young.
However, as long as he can get through that stage, his powerful magic will become his greatest asset.
Laxus is now demonstrating his overwhelming magical advantage. At such a young age, his magical power is already very strong, and coupled with his powerful lightning magic, Laxus has already become quite famous at a young age.
But the fame he gained through hard work on missions was easily surpassed by Lu Li, who defeated a few small fry and saved an idol. Can you imagine how angry or jealous he must be?
Laxus's lips curled up slightly when he heard Makarov call his name.
Congratulations, Laxus!
Philiard's tone was subtly agitated.
Pixroth: "Great, Laxus!"
Abba Grin: "Laxus, you've been promoted to S-Class Mage!"
As long as Laxus advances to S-class mage, the Thunder God Squad will naturally rise in rank as well.
"Of course! If the old man hadn't insisted on saying some nonsense earlier, I could have become an S-class mage long ago."
Laxus was born with incredibly powerful magic. The mages of Fairy Tail have trained hard for so long, yet they are still not as powerful as they were at birth.
He had asked to become an S-class mage several times before, but Makarov refused each time on the grounds that he was not mentally mature enough and was underage.
He could only watch helplessly as those less capable than him participated in the S-class mage assessment, wasting such a precious opportunity.
Because of this, he looked down on the adult mages in the guild even more.
None of them have improved in strength, they've only gotten older.
He's just a piece of trash, yet he doesn't even work hard every day.
This time he finally had the chance to escape being on the same level as these guys, and he wanted to make them understand that he was different from them.
Once he becomes an S-class mage and is qualified to inherit the Fairy Tail guild, he will kick all these useless people out of Fairy Tail.
At this point, Makarov began reading out the name of the second participant.
"Land from!"
"Land from?"
"Lu Li also qualified for the competition?"
"Of course, you don't even know how freakish Lu Li is. He's even learned the president's magic and Gildarts' magic."
……
Lu Li was slightly taken aback when he heard this. Although he was looking forward to having his name on the list, it felt like waiting to win an award.
But he had only been with Fairy Tail for half a year.
It's like this: you've only been with the company for six months, and then the company wants to promote senior managers. Those who have worked diligently for more than ten years are not nominated, but you are. That's how it feels.
Congratulations, Lu Li!
Erza smiled and congratulated Lu Li.
Over the past six months, Erza and Lu Li have spent a lot of time together, practicing swordsmanship and playing together. Under Lu Li's initiative, Erza has developed a strong liking for him.
"Thank you!" Lu Li was also very happy, and a smile appeared on his face.
Natsu said excitedly, "Lu Li, you're amazing! You actually qualified for the S-rank exam so quickly."
"Love~!"
Happy was also very happy. Natsu and Happy often went to Lu Li's place to play, and at the same time, they often challenged Lu Li. They were defeated many times, but they never stopped trying.
"Hmph! It's just a spot, not becoming an S-class mage. What's there to be happy about? Every year, people from the guild participate in the promotion exam, and right now, Gildarts is still the only S-class mage in the guild."
Mira said with a smug look on her face; she was just a little unconvinced.
Laxus is one thing, but he's already 17, almost 18, four years older than me, and already an adult.
Lu Li was the same age as her, but she didn't get a spot while Lu Li did.
Lu Li smiled when he heard Mira's words, not caring at all.
Over the past six months, he and Mira have become quite familiar with each other. Lisanna often plays with Natsu, and Natsu often comes to see Lu Li. Mira also occasionally hangs out with Lisanna. Over time, they naturally became acquainted.
At that moment, Lu Li felt a gaze. Looking in the direction of the gaze, he saw Laxus staring at him with an unfriendly look.
Chapter 48 Provocation from Laxus
Laxus was furious. He had grown up in Fairy Tail and, after becoming a Fairy Tail mage, he worked hard to complete various difficult tasks in order to gain recognition from others.
Even so, he only got his first chance to participate in the S-class mage promotion exam when he was about to turn 18.
And what about Lu Li? He had only joined the guild for half a year and was still a kid under fourteen years old, yet he still got the same opportunity as him to participate in the S-class mage promotion exam.
He just wanted to ask, why?
It's one thing for others to treat me unfairly, but to have my own grandfather treat me the same way is unacceptable.
Lu Li noticed Laxus's gaze and frowned slightly. It was one thing for Laxus to cause trouble for him before, but the two of them hadn't really run into each other since.
What happened this time?
Is it because he is a rival of an S-class mage?
However, Lu Li didn't mind, as he was still thinking about Laxus's Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic.
"The test will take place in a week. You two should get ready."
"Since this is your first time participating, let me explain the rules first."
"The two selected individuals have one week to choose a partner."
"There are two rules for partners. First, the partner must be a member of Fairy Tail. Second, S-class mages are not allowed to be chosen as partners."
"The specific test details will be announced upon arrival at the guild on the day of the test. Over!!"
After Makarov finished speaking, the guild returned to its usual state, and many people were discussing whether Lu Li or Laxus would become the new S-class mage.
Some guessed it was Laxus, while others thought it was Lu Li.
Some people were so upset because they weren't selected that they turned to alcohol to drown their sorrows.
Lu Li and his friends sat at a table, eating and chatting.
"Lu Li, Lu Li, you'll definitely choose me as your partner, right!"
Natsu fawned over Lu Li, but it was normal that he didn't get a spot, since he was still too young. Lu Li was already the youngest contestant in Fairy Tail's history to participate in the S-rank promotion test.
Even if Natsu can't become an S-class mage, he still has to take the exam, which will give him more experience during future exams.
Gray said, "Why choose you? It's more suitable to choose me. My overall magical abilities are stronger, and I can handle all kinds of situations. I will definitely help you become an S-class mage."
Gray had the same idea as Natsu. This was an S-class promotion exam, and who wouldn't want to participate? He didn't want to see Natsu come back arrogant.
Natsu grabbed Gray by the collar: "What did you say? Do you want a beating?"
