Fairy Tail: You call this Celestial Magic?!

Chapter 175 Natsu, Something's Wrong! (Please Subscribe!)
After getting ashore, Gray saw Moon. He looked around curiously and then fell into a state of ecstasy.

"Hahaha! I win! I win!"

Gray raised his hands, clenched his fists and cheered, like an MVP result scene, no one knew what was going on with him.

"Snapped!"

"Asshole! What did you win?!"

Moon went over and slapped him on the head, which made the boy return to normal. It turned out that the big dick was really effective.

"Brother Moen! I'm the second one to arrive, right?! Natsu and the others haven't arrived yet, and even Erza and Mirajane haven't arrived yet?"

Gray asked, and the slap did not stop him from continuing to look excited.

"."

Moon was speechless for a while. Wow, no wonder this kid was so excited. It turned out that he thought he was the second one to arrive.

"Erza and Mirajane already went to the next level. You're the fourth one."

Moon spoke, shattering Gray's fantasy very decisively.

"what?"

Gray was completely stunned, his face was full of disbelief and his mouth was wide open.

"They both left, so why are you still here, Brother Moen?!"

Gray asked in shock.

The reason why he thought he was the second one to arrive was because he saw Moon not moving here and there was no one else around.

According to common sense, Moon must be the first to arrive, and since he is still here, there must be no one ahead of him, so there is nothing wrong with Gray thinking this way.

Moon explained that he had other tasks to do. Gray was completely depressed after hearing that. He was so happy for nothing. He thought he had surpassed Mirajane and Erza, but it turned out that he was overthinking it.

Gray composed himself and prepared to continue his journey. This result did not disappoint him much. After all, he did not think that he could surpass Erza and Mirajane at the beginning. It could only be said that although it was a false alarm, it was not too big a blow.

However, before Gray could leave, someone else came over. He couldn't help but stop and look at them curiously.

Joey and Elfman climbed up the shore, both wet. Joey was a muscular man, and he mainly swam by brute force. He was quite good at swimming, and this was also one of his daily exercise methods.

Although Elfman dressed politely every day, he was actually very strong. After using the receiving magic, he possessed the physical strength and power of a wild beast. He swam over quickly and was the sixth to reach the destination. This must have surprised many people.

"Not bad, Elfman."

Moon patted Elfman's shoulder with a satisfied expression. This child did not disappoint his teaching. Elfman is now much more mature than before. His magical talent has gradually been discovered and he has become quite capable in combat.

However, although Elfman has a large amount of magic power and a strong body, his talent for receiving magic is indeed only average, not as normal as his sister Mirajane, but in terms of receiving and controlling, he is a little worse than his sister Lisanna.

As for Lisanna, her talent for receiving magic is indeed good. She can receive various animals smoothly, and it can even be said that it is very easy, but her own magic power is a little weak.

Elfman and Lisanna are like Mirajane's talents taken apart. The combined talents of the two are probably only slightly worse than the complete Mirajane.

"Hey, I've been training according to Brother Moen's instructions."

After receiving Moon's praise, Elfman laughed happily.

As he grew older and his body slowly grew, Elfman felt that he had indeed become a lot stronger.

Although not as talented as Sister Mira and the others, he is still talented compared to ordinary magicians, but not to the level of a demon.

But this level is enough to satisfy Elfman. He can't protect Sister Mira, but he can still protect Lisanna.

"Have Erza, Mirajane, and the others left yet?"

Joey greeted Moen and then asked curiously.

His words made Gray, who was watching curiously from the side, blush. Oh my god, was he the only one who had that misunderstanding?
Embarrassed, Gray covered his face and ran into the dense forest without waiting for Elfman and Joey, which made the two of them look at each other in bewilderment, wondering what had suddenly happened to Gray.

Moon smiled and shook his head. He felt that Gray's way of thinking was a little infected by Natsu, but at least this kid was more normal than Natsu, except that he would suddenly take off his clothes.

Well, Gray, with this problem, isn't exactly more normal than Natsu. After Gray left, Moen continued to wait for the others. Including him, there were now six groups, with three advancement spots remaining. There weren't many spots left for everyone.

Joey and Elfman were not in a hurry to leave, because they were not a single team and had teammates.

Therefore, in fact, Joey and Elfman have not yet secured their spots in the next round.

For a duo competition, the score of both players is not counted as the result of one of them, but the average score of both players. This is why Joey and Elfman did not arrive with their teammates. They must have tried their best to grab a ranking first.

Joey and Kana are in a group. This team was formed based on Moon's recommendation because he knew that Joey was very strong and would have some advantages in many possible events. As a pure physical fighting school, he could at least maintain a lower limit.

Kana is known for her versatility. Her cards can achieve many effects and can be used in various situations. Therefore, Joey is not at a disadvantage in this combination. On the contrary, he can get help in some aspects that he finds difficult.

Joey is one year younger than Laxus and is 17 years old this year. Laxus passed the S-level assessment at the age of 17 last year, which is already the youngest record. Joey doesn’t think he can break it, but at least he can try. He is still quite confident in himself.

Moon's evaluation of this is "muscle training in the brain". The gap between Joey and Laxus is probably as big as the "Power of Nine Dragons".

The three of them were chatting here, and their companions behind them began to arrive one after another.

The seventh and eighth place groups are both veteran groups, and all the members are present, so there is naturally no need to average them.

After determining the ranking, they continued to move on to the next level. The ninth place was also a veteran, but his companions were still behind, so he could only wait anxiously.

For a duo, the ninth place is a very embarrassing position.

If they want to advance, they can only hope that their partners in other pairs groups perform worse, and they even have to be careful of the single groups behind them. After the scores are averaged, they may be directly promoted.

Soon, the tenth and eleventh place came over, one with cherry pink hair and the other with black hair. They were Natsu and Gajeel. The two were chasing each other. Natsu was slightly behind, and a harpy with exhausted magic power was lying on his head.

"Ahhhh!!!"

Seeing the finish line from afar, the two of them roared together. Natsu was slightly behind, but he was trying his best to catch up. He had to be careful of the listless Happy, otherwise he would have surpassed Gajeel long ago.

"Come on, Natsu!"

Elfman shouted from the shore, he and Natsu were obviously more familiar with each other.

However, Elfman's encouragement backfired, and Natsu, who was sprinting hard at the end, accidentally threw Happy away.

"Happy!"

This sudden situation directly determined the final outcome. Natsu had to stop to save the Happy. Although the Happy, with its magic power exhausted, would not drown, it would definitely be very difficult for it to swim back by itself. Of course, Natsu would not leave the Happy alone.

There was no other way, so Natsu decisively turned around and went back to rescue the harpy floating on the sea.

Just as Moon had expected at the beginning, the "double combination" of Happy and Natsu actually had the effect of 1+1<2.

The main reason was that he didn't use his brain. Seeing that others were flying, Natsu also let Happy take him flying, and he also laughed at Gajeel who was swimming. As a result, Happy was exhausted and crashed halfway. He could only lie on Natsu's head for the second half of the journey. If the man and the cat had one swimming and the other flying, they might have reached the finish line together.

"I won! I won! I'm fifth!"

Gajeel came ashore, looking like a replica of Gray. He shouted excitedly, and when he saw that there were only four people on the shore, including Moon, he thought he was the fifth.

"Wrong, it's number ten."

Moon said, and this made Gajeel freeze in his tracks.

"how come?!"

Gajeel's eyes widened. Tenth place?! Doesn't that mean he's eliminated?!
"It's okay, being tenth doesn't mean you have no chance."

Moon continued to explain, and then he saw the ninth place person getting excited, because his companions had caught up, and as long as they surpassed Naz, they would be able to advance safely!
"Natsu! Swim faster! Swim faster!"

Gajeel, upon learning this, immediately turned around to cheer Natsu on.

Natsu, who had just pulled Happy out of the sea, was completely stunned. Gajeel actually cheered him on?!

It's a scam!
