Lilia's group entered the door to take the first test to see if they can qualify for the tournament.

Upon entering, they see a young man wearing green robes.

Upon seeing them, he greeted them.

"You're here to take the test?"

Lilia stepped forward.

"Yes, we are."

"Oh that's fine. I'll explain the rules then."

He led them to a field where there were stone slabs over.

"These are ironstone slabs. You merely need to crush them with a punch. There's two tries each. It's fairly easy and because of that, it doesn't take long to get it done."

He explained the rules.

"Oh. No wonder the others are crowded while this place isn't."

Luisa remarked.

The young man smiled.

"Yes. That's why this is a simple and easy job for me."

He laughed a bit.

"So, there's no order in who goes first so long as everyone passes. Which of you ladies would like to try first?"

"Since anyone can go first, I'll go!"

Aies recommended herself.

She stood before a stone slab and rushed at it with her small palm in the air.

"Hiya!"

Upon coming in to contact with her palm, the stone slab was smashed.

"Oh. Pass."

The young man remarked.

"Yay! I did it!"

Aies laughed and smiled smugly.

"Hm... Wow... Small yet powerful."

The young man remarked further.

"Oi, who are you calling small!?"

Aies retorted.

"Enough of that. My turn."

Seileen stepped forward and stopped Aies from making take longer than it should.

Aies pouted but returned obediently.

Seileen was a graceful lady.

She stood before one of the stone slabs and made her move.

She crushed the stone with ease.

However, fragments didn't scatter as messily as it did for Aies.

"Pass."

The young examiner spoke.

"Me next."

Luisa strode forward.

She walked to a stone slab and swung her hand downward.

The stone slab was sliced in two with that chop.

"Splendid. Pass."

The examiner called out.

"Well then... Since my sisters made their show, time to make my move."

Lilia called out proudly.

She took her step with grace and swung her arm with force.

"Wow!"

The young man called out.

The stone slab was turned to dust.

"Ooh... That's Bis Sis Lilia for you!"

Aies called out.

"Well them... I guess I'll go next."

Serra took his step and striked.

"Oh. Pass."

The stone slab wasn't destroyed but it was cracked which was passable.

"Well done. You've passed the trial of strenght."
