Fairy Tail: You said you were just acting, are you serious

Chapter 118 is fine, because you're very weak~

Upon hearing Ron's question, Azuma paused for a moment, then frowned.

"What are you talking about? I didn't let go of her just now because I was afraid she would feign surrender. I was just in case. I didn't expect the referee wouldn't hear me admit defeat."

Ron chuckled, then retorted without holding back.

"Is it possible that the referee couldn't hear her surrender because you were choking her?"

I think you're clearly using the competition as a pretext to maliciously injure someone.

Azuma's brow furrowed even more, and she clenched her fists.

"you.....!"

"Stop arguing."

He was about to retort angrily when he heard footsteps behind him, interrupting what he was about to say.

Just then, several judges rushed over from the audience.

The head of the councilors, Yajima, looked at the two men with a grim expression and reassured them, "Let's deal with the immediate issue first."

He then patted Ron on the shoulder and nodded with satisfaction.

Ron, seeing that Ajma had said so, fell silent.

"Um, could you put me down now?"

Then Ultear raised her head and asked Ron, who was still holding her tightly, with a helpless look.

"Oh, I forgot, sorry."

Ron then came to his senses and gently put her down.

Urudia quickly stood up, frowning slightly as she glanced at Ron speechlessly.

Ron turned his head, looking puzzled, after sensing the gaze.

Why are you angry?

"I didn't."

Ron nodded calmly and turned back to face him. "That's true. I haven't done anything to wrong you."

Hearing Ron's words, Ultear was even more speechless. She then turned her face away, her cheeks flushing slightly.

She realized that after being rescued by Ron, she felt a strange emotion she had never experienced before, which made her show a complex expression.

Subsequently, Speaker Crawford and Toki Underba also arrived in the ring.

With the intervention of Judges Yajima and Tochi, the chaos in the ring was temporarily suppressed, and the match was temporarily suspended.

The council first removed the judge who had committed serious dereliction of duty, preventing him from presiding over subsequent judgments.

To prevent any further mishaps during the assessment, Toki Anderba personally announced in the ring that he would be the referee for the upcoming sparring matches.

The speaker and other councilors also agreed to put Toki Anderba in charge, and everyone unanimously passed the decision.

Then, Toki Andba walked toward Urutia to make a final confirmation.

"Tia, did you clearly express your willingness to concede defeat just now?"

Urutia took a deep breath and nodded slightly.

"Yes, I just admitted defeat."

Then Toki Anderba walked up to Ron, who looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Ron, regarding what you just said about malicious injury, in the end we still believe Azuma's judgment was correct, so he..."

They've advanced to the finals.

"Oh, is that what it is?"

Ron then adjusted his sunglasses, indicating that he didn't mind.

"You don't need to tell me specifically. This result is the same to me. It doesn't matter."

Afterwards, seeing that Ron had no objection to the result, Toki Anderba picked up the magical megaphone and officially announced the result of the contest.

"Azuma won the second knockout match of the third round!"

This concludes the third round of practical assessments!

After the announcement, the judges and the unsuccessful candidates applauded in agreement.

Upon hearing this definitive answer, Azuma gave a cold laugh.

"Did you see that?"

My judgment was correct; showing no mercy is my way of showing respect to the strong!

Azuma looked at Ron and began to try to save face.

To everyone's surprise, Ron burst out laughing and started to complain after hearing Azuma's words.

"What respect from a strong person? Don't be ridiculous. Didn't you rise through the ranks by beating up girls?"

Azuma was stunned for a moment, then angrily retorted, "What do you mean? I advanced by fighting my way up in a fair and square way!"

Ron, with one hand in his pocket and slightly bent over, stared directly at Azuma.

"You were randomly matched with girls in the first two games, so I won't go into details."

Take this third round for example. As the first place winner, you had the option to choose from three people. Even though there were two other people present, including me and Mark Beth, you deliberately avoided us and chose to fight the only girl. Why?

"Isn't it because you're afraid you can't beat us and won't make it to the finals that you're deliberately picking on the weak?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I...!"

Azuma instinctively wanted to retort, but the words got stuck in her throat halfway through.

Then he suddenly realized that, on the surface, he had indeed randomly chosen girls from beginning to end, and in the end, he even chose Ultear, which was indeed true.

He widened his eyes, realizing that if he continued talking like this, he would be making excuses.

Seeing Azuma's frustrated expression, the previously quiet losers were instantly awakened by Ron's words and began to whisper...

They began to whisper among themselves.

"Yeah, isn't that bullying the weak and fearing the strong?"

"Yeah, they deliberately pick on weaker girls to beat up, and even when the girls admit defeat, they still try to kill them. It's really perverted..."

'

Upon hearing Ron's words, the way the council members looked at Azuma instantly changed, and they all unconsciously revealed obvious disgust.

Speaker Crawford, standing to the side, was sweating profusely and deeply shocked.

What's going on? Something's suddenly wrong!

With just a few words, Ron turned Azuma into the enemy of the entire crowd.

Azuma glared at Ron, knowing that anything he said now would be taken as sophistry, so he could only prove himself through actions.

Azuma turned to Tochi Andba and asked loudly, "Councilor Tochi, since there's only one match left, let's begin immediately."

I want to defeat him personally on the field and prove myself with my strength.

Toki Anderba paused for a moment, then looked around the ring, now a mess from the explosion.

"Even so, according to the assessment process, I'll still rearrange the arena, and..."

"No need for that trouble."

Azuma shook his head, then said to Councilor Tochi, "This minor damage won't affect the competition, let's begin."

Faced with Azuma's impatience, Toki Andba sighed helplessly, then turned to look at Ron.

"If the competition is to proceed ahead of schedule, both competitors need to agree, Ron, you..."

Ron smiled and nodded, indicating that there was no problem.

Azuma looked at him, then said sarcastically, "Don't you need to take some time to recover your magic? Otherwise, if you lose later, you'll say I won unfairly."

Ron maintained his confident smile and adjusted his magic mirror.

"No problem."

He then waved his hand and raised his voice.

"Because you're weak~"
