After a long while, the flames in the transparent ripple light curtain slowly returned to nothingness, and the earth inside had been scorched to the earth.

But the wooden shield made of the stake is still intact. When the flames were completely extinguished, the stakes unfurled one by one, sinking into the earth, revealing Marcus who had a breath of air growing from within.

"Just now?"

Elusa and Mirajan all looked at Natsu in surprise.

"That golden electric lightning, it's the thunder of Lagersas, right?"

Gray and Guggier also looked at Natsu in shock.

"Recognize... Throw in the towel. Marcus hurriedly raised his hands, "If you were hit by the one just now, you would definitely die." ”

However, he didn't complain about Natsu, and everyone didn't blame him for being cruel to his companions, because everyone could see that even if Lin Yu didn't block it, that roar wouldn't hit Marcus's body, but would only rush past him.

"Who's next?"

Natsu turned to look at the members who had stayed behind for seven years.

Wolian hurriedly retreated, shaking his head like a rattle.

"It's still a monster!"

"It's too strong!"

Natsu smirked, but fell to the ground.

Lin Yu removed the light curtain, and everyone stepped forward.

"Sure enough, the consumption of mana just now is not trivial!" Elusa said.

"Natsu."

Harpy suggested, "It's better not to use this in real combat." ”

"But Big Brother Marcus is so good."

Wendy looked at Marcus and sighed.

"But if you have this kind of strength, why are you still being bullied like that?"

Xia Lulu said suspiciously.

"Maybe so, right."

Marcus scratched the back of his head, "But after all, there is money involved." ”

"You can't solve everything by force."

Wolian said helplessly.

"Hehe......"

Lucy glanced at Lin Yu and laughed dryly.

On the second day after he returned, Lin Yu took Elusa, Natsu, and Guggier to run to the Ghost of Dusk, and used force to clean up everyone in that guild, and the money owed was also written off because of this, and the fairy tail that had been mortgaged would return to their hands in a few days.

------

"It seems that the problem is even more serious than expected!"

Gray smiled bitterly: "It's okay to be the monsters of Lin Yu, Gildas, and Lagersas, but our strength is a little out of this era." ”

"Indeed."

Lucy nodded, "Even Natsu is in a bitter battle in the face of that Marcus!" ”

"It's ...... to face that big brother Marcus"

Wendy also showed a look of embarrassment.

Marcus on the side silently left two lines of tears in his eyes, "Are you really complimenting me with what you just said?" ”

"Is there a way to increase your magic in one go?"

Harpy said, touching his chin.

Gray, Lucy, Wendy, and Guggill all looked at Mebis and looked at her expectantly.

"Even if you look at me like that......"

Mebis thought for a while, "I don't have a very good way, it's just simple magic power, but the magic power that can be contained in your body has almost reached the limit, that is to say, if you want to continue to improve the magic power, you must expand the container that can hold the magic power, and the expansion of the container will get bigger and bigger as you meditate, but it will take time to accumulate." ”

"Time ......"

Gray and the others looked at each other and said dejectedly: "But Gildas said before leaving, before he came back, he wanted to see Fairy Tail become the first guild of Fiori again, of course, this is also our goal, but if we want to regain the first, the only way to get the champion of the annual Great Demon Martial Arts Conference held by Fiori in recent years, and this year's Great Demon Martial Arts is coming, but at our current level, ......"

"Isn't it hard to give up this year's opportunity?" Gray clenched his fists reluctantly.

"Absolutely not."

Natsu shouted, "Even if that's the case, I will definitely win the championship of the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts!" ”

"Natsu, I don't want to hit you, but this target is a bit big."

Marcus smiled wryly.

"It's not like that, it's a good thing to aim big."

Elusa laughed.

"Seven years ago it was, but now it's different." Wolian shook his head.

"The tiger that bites the sword doesn't need to say much." Arzac said, "Even the strength of Pegasus and Serpent Queen is not what it used to be seven years ago, and now it is a very powerful guild. ”

"And in contrast, although our main members are back." Le Qi shook his head and said, "But your strength is no different from when you went to Sky Wolf Island seven years ago." ”

"The seven-year gap is not so easy to bridge."

Wakaba said solemnly: "Although we have a monster like Lin Yu that is difficult to match no matter what, as well as Ragsas, the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts is not something that can win the championship by relying on just one or two people. ”

"Whether it's the magic of the individual or the overall strength of the guild, if any of these two points are flawed, it is ...... to win the championship" Marcao also shook his head, "So, we don't agree with Fairy Tail participating in this year's Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts." ”

"How is that possible?" Natsu frowned.

"I don't think we're going to lose." Guggier laughed.

"But the seven-year gap in Sirius Island ......," Bethska sighed.

"With your current level, can you defeat the Sword Biting Tiger, who is now ranked in the First Magician Guild of Fiorlie?"

Wo Lian shook his head solemnly and said, "Don't be delusional. ”

"But if you win, you'll get a prize of 30 million J!" Makarov, who appeared at some point, touched his chin and thought, thinking about how to spend 30 million J? Oh roar roar ......

"But...... If you can't get it, what can you do? And it will make the guild's reputation even more intrigued. ”

The members who had been left behind for seven years shook their heads one after another.

"Do you want to have some confidence in the guild you're in?"

Zela couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but say.

"That's right, that's right." Mebis nodded and reconsidered: "I think it's very interesting, the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts sounds like a sacrifice." ”

"The first generation... You guys..."

"Participate."

Makarov suddenly raised his fingers, "Since the first generation said so, let's participate, the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts, and besides, you must win the first place!" ”

"Isn't it imposing, third generation?" Mebis laughed.

"Oh!"

Natsu, Gray, Guggill, and Elusa all raised their hands.

"President ......"

"Impossible, Pegasus and Snake ......"

"And the Sword Biting Tiger!"

"By the way, we've always been last in the last place in the past races."

Makarov didn't care about this, and waved his fist quite imposingly and said: "No matter, no matter, boys, you must defeat all your opponents for me!" ”

"The tiger that bites the sword! I'm burning! ”

Natsu grinned as flames erupted from his fist.

"Isn't there three months left?" Gray smiled: "Three months is enough, let's work hard in these three months!" ”

"The goal is to return to Fiore's No. 1 guild!"

Elusa smiled confidently.

"Have you really decided to go to hell?"

"Since I decided to participate, it won't help to look ahead and backward, the goal is 30 million... Ahem, target, Fiole first! Makarov shouted energetically.

"Oh!!"

"Hey, Lin Yu, can't you open the second magic source for them?" Zela whispered to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu smiled, "Seeing that they are so motivated, how can I interfere with their self-motivation at this time, of course, before the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts begins, I will open the second magic source for them, after all, the champion of the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts this time must be our Fairy Tail!" ”
