Fairy Tail: I'm invincible when I receive anime characters!

However, after thinking about it carefully, I held back. After all, receiving such a commotion would definitely attract the attention of others. I'll try it properly when no one is around.

At this moment, even the system was speechless. Could this kid really be having an affair with Lady Luck?

Otherwise, with a mere one in ten draws, how come this kid always manages to draw such powerful characters so easily? Not only does he draw them, but they're also incredibly strong characters among the gold-tier character cards. This is just too illogical.

Magic Council ERA

"Nonsense! This is utter nonsense!!"

Og slammed the newspaper on the table, furious at the prospect of a showdown between Fairy Tail and Phantom Lord.

Zikrein laughed and said, "What's so ridiculous about this? I think this method is excellent. Resolving disputes through competition avoids casualties and solves the problem. There seems to be no better way."

Ogg said, "Isn't this just a way of exploiting the loopholes in the power struggles between guilds?!"

Zeklay spread his hands: "Then what do you suggest? This incident was caused by the Phantom Lord destroying Fairy Tail Guild first. If Fairy Tail isn't given a satisfactory explanation, it could lead to even more serious problems later on."

Ogre slammed his fist on the table in anger: "An explanation? What explanation? Fairy Tail has caused us so much trouble, and I haven't made them give us an explanation yet."

Mikaello agreed, "That's right! If you ask me, guilds like Fairy Tail should be forcibly disbanded!"

"Well... although Fairy Tail has caused a lot of trouble, they have also made many contributions. They are already victims themselves. If they are forcibly disbanded, it might cause even bigger problems." Seeing how radical Og and Michael were, Makarov's friend had to say some good words for his friend.

"Which would you choose: a Fairy Tail with its constraints or a Fairy Tail with no inhibitions?"

"Fairy Tail is not just an ordinary guild."

Suddenly, everyone remembered that Fairy Tail indeed had many talented people, and if not handled properly, it could indeed cause considerable harm.

Especially Qi Yan, others may not know who he is, but the council does.

If these talents were to defect to the Dark Guilds, the threat they posed might be even greater than that of the Balam Alliance, the largest Dark Guild organization on the continent of Ishgar.

At this moment, Council Chairman Crawford said, "Sparring with each other is one of the ways for mages to improve their strength. Fairy Tail had a motive for revenge this time, but it was all within the rules. As for Phantom Lord, we will discuss the punishment of Phantom Lord after this duel is over."

Hearing this, Yakima breathed a slight sigh of relief. Fairy Tail was too troublesome. Apart from the chairman, more than half of the other nine council members were very dissatisfied with Fairy Tail, which made him somewhat worried about his old friend.

Three days flew by.

Chapter 98 Beat him to death!

Onibas Stadium.

At this moment, the Onibas Arena was bustling with activity. Over the past three days, countless spectators from all over Fiore had come to witness this exciting duel.

"Wow! It's Fairy Tail!!"

"Fairy Tail is here!!"

Makarov led the Fairy Tail crew to the outside of the arena.

"That woman with the long white hair is Miss Mirajane! She's even more beautiful in person than in her photos!!"

"Is that the Fairy Queen Erza in armor?! She's so beautiful and cool!"

"What about the 'Fire Dragon'? Who is the famous Fire Dragon?"

"Whoa! It's Loki!!"

Many girls cheered when they saw Loki. Compared to mages like Erza and Natsu who rarely appeared on screen, Loki, who often played the male lead in various movies, was much more popular.

As for Qi Yan, he made a great name for himself, but nobody knew him, and even those who knew he was from Fairy Tail knew very little about him.

At this moment, the crowd stirred again.

"Yes! Phantom Lord! The Phantom Lord has arrived!!"

Someone in the crowd shouted.

"Ghost..."

The Fairy Tail members all turned pale upon hearing the word "Phantom."

A short while later, Joseph Pora, the guild master of the Ghost Dominator guild, arrived with his guild members.

The two sides were immediately on the verge of war upon meeting. The two guilds were already at odds, and this time Fairy Tail's guild building was destroyed by the other side. This despicable act of stealing their base made the members of Fairy Tail wish they could wipe out the other side right now.

“Joseph…”

Makarov narrowed his eyes slightly. If we're talking about feelings for the guild, Makarov undoubtedly has the deepest. That guild sheltered the children in the guild as they grew up, but now it's been ruined by the other party. He wished he could beat the other party up.

"Oh my... it's been so long, Brother Makarov. The last time we met was at a regular meeting six years ago. Ah, I drank a bit too much back then..."

"Enough with the nonsense, Joseph. What do you mean this time?"

Joseph feigned ignorance, saying, "What do you mean? Oh! Brother Makarov, you mean about the guild? Sorry, sorry! It's a member of my guild. In order to catch a criminal, who would have thought that the criminal would escape to the Fairy Tail guild, and then accidentally..."

"Gajeel! Come here and apologize!"

The crowd in the Iron Forest dispersed, and Gajeel, dressed in black with long black hair, walked over, feigning innocence, and said, "I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! It was all my fault. I didn't expect that such a dilapidated house would be Fairy Tail's guild. If I had known, I should have destroyed it even more thoroughly, hehe!"

"You bastard—!!!"

The Fairy Tail members were instantly enraged and all wanted to rush over and kill Gajeel.

Erza and Qi Yan quickly stopped the rest of the guild.

Erza shouted, "Don't let him provoke us! When we get to the arena, we'll teach him a lesson and show him what happens when he messes with Fairy Tail!"

"What happens if you mess with Fairy Tail? I'm so scared!!!"

"Hahahahaha!!"...

The Phantom Lords all burst into unrestrained laughter, while the Fairy Tail members all wore incredibly gloomy and ugly expressions.

Joseph covered his mouth and chuckled: "Hehe, sorry! Brother Makarov, the guild kids aren't very good-tempered. I'll teach them a lesson when I get back. See you on the field then."

After Joseph finished speaking, he led the Phantom Lords toward the arena. As the members of the Phantom Lords passed in front of the Fairy Tail members, they made faces one after another to provoke them, which greatly angered the Fairy Tail members.

"Damn it! I'm going to kill those bastards!!"

Natsu yelled and was about to attack, but Elfman and Gray quickly held him back. They couldn't let those guys provoke them now; if they fought, it would be considered a fight between guilds.

Makarov said with a grim expression, "Give those Ghost bastards a good beating later, make them regret ever being born!"

This was the first time the Fairy Tail members had ever seen the old man say something like that; it seemed he was truly enraged by Phantom Lord.

The Fairy Tail members also entered the arena.

“There are so many people!”

Lucy was surprised to see the audience seats were full; it was the first time she had ever seen so many people gathered together.

No one expected that Qi Yan's suggestion would attract such a large crowd, probably numbering at least 100,000.

"Hey, look over there, what's that?!"

Everyone looked ahead and saw that many people in the opposite stands were waving the banner of the Phantom Lord guild.

Lucy asked doubtfully, "Are those people the cheerleaders for the Phantom Lords guild?"

Mira shook her head and said, "No, those are all members of the Phantom Lords Guild."

"What?!!"

"Members?! That's over a thousand people, right? The Phantom Lord guild has that many members?!"

Lucy was startled when she heard this. Was there too many people on the other side? Fairy Tail was a relatively large mage guild, but it only had a little over 100 members.

Erza explained, "The Phantom Lords guild is a very aggressive guild. Normally, there is only one mage guild in a town, but the Phantom Lords opens branches in other guild towns and uses malicious competition and other means to destroy another guild and then monopolize the resources of the entire city. Six years ago, they even wanted to open a branch in Magnolia Town. It was the guild master who reprimanded them at the regular meeting, which thwarted their expansion plan in Magnolia. It was from that time that the two guilds began to become enemies."

Lucy's eyes widened: "What?! That's too much!!"

"That's just how Phantoms operate, which is why we hate them."

Makarov scoffed, "Hmph! They just love to pull these kinds of dirty tricks."

To be honest, he also felt a little regretful. He should have arranged for some people to be cheerleaders.

Welcome to the Onibas Arena! I'm your commentator: Jabadi!

[The epic battle between Fairy Tail and Phantom Lord is about to begin!]

These two guilds are evenly matched, both led by one of the Ten Wizard Saints of Ishgard, and each boasting numerous S-rank mages! People often debate which guild is the strongest mage in Fiore, and today that opportunity has finally arrived!

Today's duel will determine which guild is the strongest in Fiore!!

"Oooooooooooooooo!!!"

Chapter 99 Grit Your Teeth

The audience cheered excitedly.

The Fairy Tail members all looked at Qi Yan.

Qi Yan spread his hands: "This isn't what I said, he added all of this himself."

The rules of the competition are as follows: each side will send out one player for a one-on-one battle, for a total of six-on-six round-robin matches. The side that runs out of six players first will be the loser.

[The winner will not only become Fiore's strongest mage guild, but will also take home half of the tournament tickets, 2000 million J!!]

"2000 million J?!"

Makarov's eyes lit up; this money was almost enough for him to rebuild a guild.

"You brats! Give them a good beating! We must get that 2000 million J!"

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!!"

[The first match is about to begin. Please welcome both players to the stage!]

“I’ll do it!!”

Almost as soon as he finished explaining, Natsu rushed out.

"Natsu!!"

"That idiot! He's still so impulsive! He should at least consider who his opponent is before he tries to restrain himself!"

Gray simply couldn't stand Natsu's impulsive personality; he never followed any plan.

Natsu, however, could no longer contain himself. He had wanted to fight back when provoked by the Phantom Lord, and now that he could, he was naturally the first to rush out.

"You bastard Phantom Lord! Get out here!!"

Natsu roared angrily, flames erupting from his head.

Fairy Tail has sent Natsu! I wonder how Phantom Lord will handle this?

"Since you're a fire mage, then I'll make my appearance!"

Joseph sat in his chair, a slight smirk playing on his lips, and said coldly, "Give them a good beating. Even killing them is fine. We need to make all the uninformed viewers understand just how vast the difference is between Fairy Tail and us, the Phantom Lords."

[Oh my god!! The Phantom Lord has sent out one of the four elements, the Fire Rabbit, Totoro!!]

A man dressed like a samurai, with a katana at his waist, and black and white hair tied high at the back of his head, walked into the arena from the side of the Phantom Lords.

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!!"

Compared to Natsu, whose title wasn't mentioned in the commentary, the four Phantom Elements are more famous among the citizens.

"They've actually sent out a fire mage! Looks like we've got this game in the bag!"

When the Fairy Tail members heard that the opponent had sent a fire mage, they all got excited, since Natsu was the Fire Dragon Slayer Mage and the nemesis of all fire mages.

It seems both sides are ready!

Fairy Tail vs. Phantom Lord, Match 1!

【start----!!】

Clang!

With the sound of a gong, the competition officially began.

"Oh my god!!"

As soon as the gong finished ringing, Natsu, his fist wreathed in flames, charged towards Usagi-maru.

Before Natsu could even reach Usagi, his fist slammed into his own face.

"Wow wow wow wow wow?!"

Natsu rolled sideways on the ground several times before stopping.
