The next moment, Juvia's figure gradually appeared in front of Lucy.
"Miss Lucy, for Team B's victory, you should go out!" Juvia stared at Lucy and said slowly.
Looking at Juvia who was full of magic power in front of her.
Even the keys were taken away, and Lucy, who was completely unable to use magic, spread her hands helplessly.
"I don't seem to have the strength to resist."
"Of course!" Juvia responded.
With a wave of his arm, he sent Lucy out.
He also murmured: "This is a promise to Lord Xingchen, I must win the first place!"
"It's the same even if you are a partner, let alone a rival in love?"
—————
"competition is over!"
"Lucy from Fairy Tail Team A fell out of the field, and the final winner is Juvia from Fairy Tail Team B!"
Jabadi announced the result immediately after Lucy fell out of the field.
In the venue, the underwater arena completely disappeared.
Juvia had also landed in the venue, after handing over the key she just snatched back from Minerva to Lucy.
The two left the place together.
He didn't even look at Mineba embedded in the wall not far away.
That dismissive attitude was like a sharp sword piercing directly into Minerba's heart.
Forcefully pulled himself out of the wall.
Minerva fell to the ground.
Covering his still aching chest with one hand, his face gradually became grim.
"Fairy Tail..." she muttered softly.
His eyes full of resentment cast aside the backs of Lucy and Juvia in front of him.
Minerva took a step forward and walked towards her guild.
"Wait, then…"
The deep tone came out slowly, but no one cared.
After all... no one would pay attention to the barking of a defeated dog.
—————
The first competition is over.
The magic crystal screen also shows the rankings of each guild so far.
1. Fairy Tail B: 55P
2. Fairy Tail A: 47P
3. The tiger that bites the sword: 36P
3. Mermaid's heel: 36P
4. Four-headed hound: 26P
5. The Scale of the Snake Princess: 23P
6. Cyan Pegasus: 22P
After passing the competitive events, the score of the sword-biting tiger also caught up to the third place.
Of course, today's game is not over yet, and the rankings will definitely change afterwards.
However, there is no doubt that the two teams of Fairy Tail are still like two mountains.
Standing in front of everyone, it is insurmountable.
Unlike before, after the competition ended, the second matchup immediately began.
Today's duel event was delayed by about an hour.
It seemed that it was because Crow's Tail was disqualified from the competition yesterday.
As a result, today's part of the battle cannot be arranged smoothly.
The organizers are urgently discussing the reasons for the countermeasures.
And within an hour of this halfway break.
Fairy Tail Team A and Team B gathered in a lounge.
It makes the lounge that is not too big look very crowded.
"Lucy, is she alright?" Erza asked Poliuska with her gaze.
In response to Erza's question, Polisika shook her head.
Leaving aside Lucy who had just been bandaged by herself, Poliusika said:
"Don't worry, it's just some skin trauma, just bandage it and it will be fine."
Indeed, in the previous battle.
Lucy still suffered several attacks from Minerva.
However, fortunately, the initial force was not strong, so no serious injuries were caused.
And the most important thing is that after that, Juvia completely integrated into the underwater arena.
Using magic to block the worst attack for Lucy.
Because of this, Lucy only suffered some skin trauma, and just as Poliusika said, just bandage it and it will be fine.
Lucy also understood that it was because of Juvia that she was able to stand here intact today.
So, a very serious thank you.
"The main reason is that that guy is too much, so don't pay too much attention to Miss Lucy, and we are still rivals in love!" Juvia didn't care about that kind of thing either.
He waved his hand, and even pursed his lips when talking about the latter.
Lucy was speechless for a while.
"However, the intentions of the group of guys who bit the tiger... really disgusting."
Miraj clasped his hands together, his tone a little harsh.
"Hmph! It's best not to let me meet their people, or they will definitely look good!" Natsu also clenched his fists.
The tone is indignant.
"Indeed, if there is no Juvia today, maybe Lucy..." Gray looked at Lucy and sighed softly.
Even Luo Xingchen narrowed his eyes slightly at this moment.
Obviously, he was very displeased with this sword-biting tiger.
"Don't worry too much about those guys, just call them back when you meet them later," Laxus said.
squeak…
While everyone was talking, the door of the lounge was slowly pushed open.
"Are you all here?" Makarov came in from the door and said.
Looking around, I found that all the candidates for Team A and Team B had arrived.
So she nodded lightly: "Just right, I have something to announce."
Seeing everyone's eyes looked over.
Makarov lowered his head slightly, and said, "I don't know whether it's good or bad..."
"Just received a request from the organizer, let us integrate Team A and Team B into one team."
As soon as the voice fell, everyone at the scene said anxiously:
"What?!"
"The person who integrated the two teams of AB?"
"What's going on?"
"That's right, why do you want to integrate people from the two teams?"
"What are those guys from the organizer thinking?"
The bustling voices resounded continuously in the lounge.
"Everyone be quiet." Luo Xingchen frowned slightly, interrupting everyone's conversation.
Then he looked at Makarov and asked, "Is it because of the crow's tail?"
Seeing this, Makarov nodded slightly.
"That's right, because Crow's Tail has been disqualified from the competition, the organizers can't arrange duels normally, so the participating teams need to be reduced to six."
"Then how should the points be calculated?" Xia Lulu asked.
"The side with the fewest inheritance points is Team A's 47P." Makarov responded.
"Isn't this too messy?" Hubby said.
"If you do this, maybe there are considerations from the organizer." Erza also spoke.
Milaj on the side stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and said:
"However, this time we can also take advantage of the trend to form a stronger team, can't we?"
"Also, even with the lowest score of 190, we still have a full 47P, which is still a lot ahead of the audience." Wendy said while holding Xia Lulu.
Even Natsu couldn't help but nodded.
"That's right, even if it's the low-scoring pair, we still lead the field!"
"Moreover, we can form a more powerful guild. No matter how you look at it, it will be profitable for us."
————
"Then now, let me announce the list of participants." Makarov's words changed everyone's thoughts.
"First, Natsu Dragneel!" He called out Natsu's name.
"Okay!" Natsu clapped his fists together and responded loudly.
"Gajeel Lightfox!"
"Hey, I think they have been displeased for a long time!" Gajiru showed a characteristic grin,
"Eluza Sukaletto!"
Erza nodded solemnly.
"Then, Laxus!"
The thunder and lightning flickered instantly, and Laxus' face gradually became much more ferocious.
"Finally..." Makarov looked at Luo Xingchen.
"Xingchen, I leave it to you! You will play as their captain."
Luo Xingchen also nodded lightly: "Don't worry."
"And Mila." Makarov looked at Milaj again.
"Originally, I wanted you to participate, but considering that the only time Natsu and Gajeel played, neither of them enjoyed the fun of competition, so I chose them first."
"You will play as a rotation player, and then you will see the sports schedule."
"It's okay, I've already enjoyed the fun of competition, let them play, after all, these two seem to have been holding back for a long time."
Milaj looked at Gajeel and Natsu, and laughed teasingly.
