"In previous Grand Magic Games, it seems that no guild has ever allowed two teams to participate at the same time."
“But there are no restrictions this year,” Makarov said shamelessly.
"So, no matter what, we didn't break the rules, isn't that enough?"
Everyone was speechless.
However, since there are no restrictions in the rules, it cannot be said that doing so is not allowed.
"In that case, why not select more teams to participate?" Marcao chuckled mischievously.
"Wouldn't that increase our chances of winning?"
"Let's forget about it," Wakaba said, pouring cold water on the idea.
"In previous years, our guild always came in last place. Although we have some key members participating this time, it would be too embarrassing if we sent out so many teams and still couldn't get a ranking."
"Hey, hey, hey," Gray said irritably.
"You guys have way too little self-confidence, don't you?"
"Well, there's nothing we can do about it, isn't there?" Lucy sighed.
"After all, trying to make up for a seven-year gap in three months would seem like too much of a stretch to anyone."
(Regarding going to the Azure World, I should definitely go. Actually, I really like that world, but I've only seen the anime, not the manga. I'll catch up on that later!)
Chapter 313 Two Teams (Part 2)
“But we still have Laxus, Erza, and Mira, right? I don’t think seven years is enough time for many people to catch up with those three. Besides, we also have Yukino and our new companion Brandish.” Gray crossed his arms and spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
"Not to mention, Xiao hope is back now. With Li Xiao Xi's strength, let alone the other mages, even Jura from the Serpent Scale would probably be instantly killed if she wanted to fight Xiao hope! Xiao Xi's strength is frighteningly strong now."
“That’s right,” Wendy nodded repeatedly, insisting strongly.
"Lady Nozomi is the strongest, she will never lose to anyone. That Jura is no match for Lady Nozomi," Yukino retorted.
“That’s what I think too,” Lisanna agreed without hesitation.
"Oh, that's what I think too." Mira smiled sweetly.
"No matter what, Li Xiaoxi will not lose."
Only Macao and Wakaba, members who had been in the guild for seven years and had never seen Li Xiaoxi display much power, offered their opinions.
"Naive! So incredibly naive!" Macao shook his head.
"You have no idea. Jura is no longer the last of the Ten Wizard Saints seven years ago."
“Yes,” Wakaba agreed.
"In the past seven years, Jura has become the fifth-ranked of the Ten Wizard Saints, higher than the Guild Master and Nozomi. She's currently sixth; I won't even mention the Guild Master."
"Fifth?" Lucy exclaimed in surprise.
"Does that mean that in this continent, only the top four of the Ten Wizard Saints are stronger than Mr. Jura?"
"The Ten Wizard Saints are ultimately just a title bestowed upon the ten most outstanding mages on the continent by the Council. There are certainly mages who have the strength to become one of the Ten Wizard Saints, but are unable to be selected due to their conduct or other issues," Erza said solemnly.
"However, since he can be ranked fifth among the Ten Saints, it proves that Jura might be even stronger than the Chairman."
However, at this moment, members of the Fairy Council appeared in Fairy Tail. Their appearance in Fairy Tail was nothing serious; they simply raised Li Xiaoxi's ranking among the Ten Wizard Saints to fourth place before hurriedly leaving.
When Li Xiaoxi inquired about the rankings of Jura and the others, she was informed by the council that Jura was now ranked sixth, and the rest of them would move down one place in turn.
This news immediately set the entire Fairy Tail ablaze. Li Xiaoxi had now become the fourth Wizard of Ten, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Fiore Kingdom. This was a significant improvement in quality; after all, the fourth and fifth ranks of the Wizard of Ten were a watershed moment, with the fourth-ranked Wizard capable of instantly defeating all the Wizards of Ten ranked below him.
Everyone fell silent for a moment, and then, a moment later, the entire place erupted in chaos.
Li Xiaoxi is currently ranked fourth, which means that in this Grand Magic Games, Li Xiaoxi alone can make Fairy Tail the number one team, not to mention Yukino, who was praised by Li Xiaoxi, and Brandish μ, who was originally the second shield.
"No matter what kind of opponent they are, if they want to stop us from becoming the number one in the Kingdom of Fiore, then they'll have to witness the power of Fairy Tail."
One sentence ignited the passion in everyone's hearts.
"Alright, there's no point in discussing who's stronger or weaker right now," Li Xiaoxi concluded with a slight smile.
"We'll only know the outcome after the game."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Makarov smiled with relief, but then his smile faded. He spoke in a clear voice.
"As for the second piece of news, it is that Xiaoxi will become the candidate for the president of Fairy Tail. As long as Xiaoxi gains more experience over the years, I plan to hand over the position of president to Xiaoxi so that she can inherit it and become the fifth president of our Fairy Tail."
This caused an uproar throughout the entire guild.
"Congratulations, Li Xiaoxi." Gray patted Li Xiaoxi's shoulder hard.
"You're finally going to become the president."
"Congratulations!"
"congratulations!"
All of her friends gathered around Li Xiaoxi, offering their blessings one by one.
Li Xiaoxi's strength in Fairy Tail is evident to everyone. If Li Xiaoxi doesn't become the president, probably no one else will be suitable.
Looking at her companions surrounding her, Li Xiaoxi suddenly smiled.
Makarov smiled happily as he looked at the crowd offering their blessings to Li Xiaoxi.
"President, have the members for both teams been decided yet?"
“That’s right.” Makarov nodded and began to announce. “Now, let’s first announce the members of Fairy Tail Team A. Team A consists of Natsu Dragneel, Gray Fullbuster, Erza Scarlet, Lucy Heartfilia, Laxus Dreyar, and Gajeel Redfox, making up the six members of Fairy Tail Team A.”
"Squad A?" Laxus, sitting at the bar, narrowed his eyes slightly.
“This time, I’ll be with Stinkfire!” Gajeel said, chewing on a piece of iron.
"Now, let's announce the members of Fairy Tail Team B." Makarov gestured towards Li Xiaoxi's side. "The members of Team B are these six: Li Xiaoxi, Mirajane Strauss, Brandish.μ, Yukino Aguria, Wendy Marbel, and Mystogan."
"These six are the members of 'Fairy Tail Team B'." Makarov looked around at everyone below.
“President, it’s not Mystergang!” Gray raised his question.
"Are you all talking about me?" Gray had barely finished speaking when Mystogan, who looked very similar to Geralt, appeared in the guild hall.
"Mystgang, aren't you with Edolas?"
"Two months ago, Xiaoxi pulled me back to Fairy Tail. After Fairy Tail became like this, in order to make our guild number one again, I trained in Xiaoxi's time barrier!"
The appearance of Mystogan, one of the strongest candidates for Fairy Tail, was orchestrated by Li Xiaoxi. Originally, after learning that Mystogan was the prince of Edolas, Li Xiaoxi felt regretful for not being able to see him one last time, so she went to Edolas to find him. After their conversation, Mystogan, knowing that Fairy Tail was in grave danger, requested to return and help. Li Xiaoxi considered it briefly and agreed, then brought Mystogan back. However, Mystogan's power had been weakened for seven years, so Li Xiaoxi used a time barrier to allow him to train inside until today.
Chapter 314 Goal First
Team B, led by Li Xiaoxi, is a lineup that could dominate the entire Grand Magic Games. Not to mention, Yukino and Brandish μ could make Fairy Tail the number one in the Eastern Continent once again.
With the addition of the members of Fairy Tail Team A, all of Fairy Tail's strongest mages are on the list. With such a lineup, there's no reason why they shouldn't excel in the Grand Magic Games.
The group of friends were also discussing it.
"Although Team A is strong, Team B's strength is just too terrifying!"
"This lineup is probably the strongest in our guild, right?"
"Wendy, what's wrong? You seem unhappy! What's wrong? Don't you want to be on my team?" Li Xiaoxi asked worriedly when she saw that Wendy seemed a little depressed.
"No, I'm very happy to be in the same team as Brother Xiaoxi. But Wendy's strength isn't high, will she fall behind our team?" Wendy hurriedly explained.
"Who said Wendy isn't strong? Wendy, you're incredibly strong now. Besides, you've already learned your Dragon Slayer Secret Technique, so have more confidence in yourself!"
"Since Brother Xiaoxi has said so, Wendy will try her best!" With Li Xiaoxi's comfort, Wendy quickly regained her confidence and happily said to Li Xiaoxi.
"Look at all I've said, it's not as effective as this guy's one sentence!" Xia Lulu said speechlessly, looking at Wendy who was comforted by Li Xiaoxi with just one sentence.
"Xia Lulu!"
"Tomorrow, we'll be heading to the Grand Magic Games venue, so all team members, remember to be prepared today. Target! Thirty million... cough cough cough..." Makarov coughed lightly before finishing his sentence, speaking in a serious tone.
"Target! Fiore, first place!"
Everyone present cheered loudly.
------------
Crocus was the most prosperous city in the Kingdom of Fiore.
Unlike Magnolia, this city is widely known as the City of Flowers.
Because this place is filled with all kinds of beautiful and delicate flowers all year round, it can be said to be a beautiful city famous for its flowers. When people enter the city, the first thing they often see is the profusion of flowers that fill every street and every corner.
On streets surrounded by all kinds of flowers, it is very common to see people coming and going.
Among the crowds mingling with the throngs of people on the streets, some even exude a mysterious aura that is difficult for others to detect.
That's magic.
In this bustling city of flowers, mages are everywhere.
The reason for this grand occasion is that the city of Crocus is the royal capital of the Kingdom of Fiore. It's the location of the royal palace and the residence of the king and his nobles. Naturally, as the center of the Kingdom of Fiore, Crocus has no reason not to be prosperous, and this is partly why it attracts so many mages. Another reason is that the annual Grand Magic Games, which determines the rankings of numerous guilds within the Kingdom of Fiore, are held in this city.
This is the real reason why you can see mages everywhere on the streets.
There is only one day left until the Grand Magic Games officially begin.
Tomorrow will be the official start of the Grand Magic Games.
Therefore, mages from various guilds all over the kingdom began to gather in this city.
This includes Fairy Tail.
"Finally...finally we've arrived..."
Natsu, his face ashen, collapsed in the middle of the street.
There's no other reason than motion sickness.
"Well…"
Gajeel, who was carrying a suitcase, also collapsed, his face just as pale as Natsu's.
Looking at Natsu and Gajeel lying neatly side by side on the street, Lucy was completely baffled.
"Natsu is one thing, but why does even Gajeel get carsick?"
This is also the question on the minds of the others.
Therefore, everyone present focused their attention on Juvia.
As someone who came from the same guild as Gajeel and joined Fairy Tail at the same time, no one present knew Gajeel better than Juvia.
"Zhu...Zhu Bian doesn't know either." Noticing that his companions were all looking at him, Zhu Bian quickly waved his hands and shook his head.
"We've never had this problem before."
"Is that so?" Erza frowned slightly.
"So what exactly happened?"
"For now, I did cast a spell on Natsume and Gajeel to cure their sense of balance," Wendy said weakly.
"However, the duration of magic is also limited, and if it is used continuously, the duration will become shorter and shorter, and there is nothing I can do about it."
"Could this be a common problem among Dragon Slayer Mages?" Gray asked, seemingly out of boredom.
"Aren't those two Dragon Slayer Mages?"
“Speaking of which…” Fried looked at Laxus beside him.
"Doesn't the Laxus get carsick too?"
"Huh?" All of his companions immediately turned their surprised gazes toward Laxus.
“Fried.” Laxus glared at Fried.
"Don't say anything unnecessary."
In other words, Fried's words were superfluous, not false.
"No way?" Gray was surprised himself.
"Is this a common problem among Dragon Slayer Mages?"
