Chapter 339
Arcadios, dressed in knight's armor, respectfully handed a roster in his hand to an old man in front of him.
This old man was the King of this Kingdom of Fiore.
After the old King took the roster, he scanned it.
At this moment, the cheers coming from the Grand Magic Games arena resounded throughout the entire capital.
"They are all powerful Mages, pumpkin!"
Arcadios naturally knew that the old King was the pumpkin host on the arena floor.
So when the old King said the suffix "pumpkin," he did not have any change in expression.
However, the old King himself coughed awkwardly, then asked again: "This Wendi, it seems she hasn't participated in a single match yet, right?"
"It seems that is the case, Your Majesty!"
After receiving confirmation from Arcadios, the old King said: "Then for the next match, let Wendi take the stage!"
"Ai Ai Lu Sha, Wendi, versus Kagura and Millianna of Mermaid Heel!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will go handle it right away!"
After Arcadios bowed respectfully, he retreated.
And the old King also put on that pumpkin headgear: "This year's Grand Magic Games are truly interesting, pumpkin!"
After the pumpkin man walked to the arena, the live commentator at the commentary desk had already received notice from the organizers.
"Alright, sorry to keep everyone waiting!"
"Due to Raven Tail being disqualified, the remaining teams could not be matched normally, so the organizers have decided to merge the two teams of Fairy Tail into one!"
As soon as the live commentator said this, the audience began to discuss it.
"Eh? They actually merged into one? Wouldn't that be unfair to Fairy Tail?"
"There is no other way; after all, if they don't merge, the following matches cannot proceed normally!"
While the audience felt a pity for the merger of the two Fairy Tail teams, Jenny from Blue Pegasus clenched her fists with joy: "Luck, this way the chances of Fairy Tail winning the championship are much lower, and the probability of our guild winning the championship has increased a lot~!"
"Now is not the time to be happy, right? Even if the two Fairy Tail teams merge, Fairy Tail's current ranking is still far ahead, right?"
As soon as Ren's voice fell, a virtual screen showing the point rankings of the 7 teams appeared in the sky above the arena.
They saw the virtual screen displaying:
1. Fairy Tail, 70 points
2. Sabertooth, 30 points
3. Mermaid Heel, 26 points
4. Lamia Scale, 26 points
5. Blue Pegasus, 18 points
6. Quatro Cerberus, 10 points
Jenny looked at Fairy Tail's points, then looked at her own guild's points; the joy on her face instantly vanished, replaced by a blow.
"How can there be such a big difference?"
Jenny asked with a bitter smile.
Hearing Jenny's question, Hibiki, who was fiddling with a virtual keyboard, said regarding the data on the screen: "This is the score after the merger; Fairy Tail A before the merger had 68 points, almost full marks!"
Uh—
Hearing Hibiki's words, Jenny was...
"You all shouldn't be discouraged; it's only a 42-point difference, we still have a chance!"
Ichiya struck an exaggerated pose and said to Jenny and the others.
Only a 42-point difference.
"Ichiya-san, you really are optimistic!"
Just as Jenny was complaining in her heart, Hibiki, Eve, and Ren all struck a pose along with Ichiya.
"As expected of Ichiya-senpai!"
"With Ichiya-sensei here, our Blue Pegasus cannot possibly lose!"
While the Blue Pegasus members were talking, the audience in the surrounding stands, after seeing the point ranking on the virtual screen, were all exclaiming in surprise.
"So amazing, Fairy Tail, they already have 60 points? That's 30 points more than the strongest Sabertooth; this is too strong!"
"I just hope that after Fairy Tail reorganizes, it won't have any impact on the competition!"
"Fairy Tail, go for it!"
Amidst the cheers of the audience, the point ranking on the virtual screen quickly turned into a match table.
Fairy Tail vs Mermaid Heel
Sabertooth vs Lamia Scale
Blue Pegasus vs Quatro Cerberus
"The following battle matches are different from the previous three days!"
"The battle matches of the first three days were all one-on-one, while today's battle matches are two-on-two!"
"The competition rules have not changed: the winning side gets 10 points, a draw gives both sides five points, and the loser gets no points!"
"The teams for the three matches have already been announced in advance!"
While the live commentator was speaking, Ye Yu, Kagura, Jenny, Sherria, and all the participating Mages locked their gazes on the match table on the virtual screen.
"Ho, the opponent is Mermaid Heel?"
Ye Yu looked at the match table, his gaze falling on Kagura, Millianna, and the others over there.
"It's actually Mermaid Heel; I hope we don't encounter Kagura and the others. After all, we have a relatively good relationship with Kagura and them, and we even did missions together before!"
Wendi clenched her fists tightly, saying as if in prayer.
"I actually hope to encounter Kagura!"
Ai Ai Lu Sha looked at Kagura and said with an expectant expression.
"Eh? Why?"
Hearing these words from Ai Ai Lu Sha, Wendi was very surprised.
"Friendship is friendship, and the competition is the competition; this does not affect anything!"
Ai Ai Lu Sha looked at Ye Yu and Wendi and said with a smile.
While Ye Yu and Ai Ai Lu Sha were looking at Kagura and Millianna.
Kagura, Millianna, and the other members of Mermaid Heel were also looking at Ye Yu and Ai Ai Lu Sha's group.
"Eh?! We have to fight Ai-chan and the others? I really don't hope for such a thing to happen!"
Millianna's thoughts were consistent with Wendi's.
However, Kagura's thoughts were surprisingly consistent with Ai Ai Lu Sha's.
"Fairy Queen!"
Kagura looked at Ai Ai Lu Sha, the hand gripping the Grudge Blade tightened, and her face was filled with fighting spirit.
"Kagura, you hope to fight Ai Ai Lu Sha and them? What if the opponent you encounter is Ye Yu?"
Seeing the fighting spirit on Kagura's face, Millianna asked.
Perhaps Millianna was just asking casually.
But when Kagura heard Ye Yu mentioned in Millianna's mouth, Kagura was suddenly flustered.
"Ye... Ye Yu, right, there is also a possibility of encountering Ye Yu; if I encounter Ye Yu..."
Kagura looked at Ye Yu beside Ai Ai Lu Sha, her beautiful face slightly flushed, her expression flustered.
"Alright, let's begin today's first battle match!"
"The two sides of the match are: Fairy Tail's Ai Ai Lu Sha and Wendi versus Mermaid Heel's Kagura and Millianna!"
The originally flustered Kagura, upon hearing these words from the live commentator, suddenly calmed down.
"Luckily it's not Ye Yu!"
Kagura thought to herself, then her gaze fell on Ai Ai Lu Sha.
And Ai Ai Lu Sha was also looking at Kagura.
At this moment, the air between Kagura and Ai Ai Lu Sha became scorching hot.
"What to do, we really encountered Ai-chan (Kagura) and them!"
While Kagura and Ai Ai Lu Sha showed fighting spirit, Wendi and Millianna said with worried expressions. ===== CHAPTER 341 =====
