"Hello, Everyone! Next, let's welcome today's final one-on-one battle!" the Pumpkin Host floated in the sky, raising his hands high, announcing excitedly.
"It's the last one! Pumpkin!" The last sentence was shouted out loud.
His voice was as fiery as a flame, directly igniting the passion of the entire venue.
It was as if this enthusiasm was to be passed on to Everyone.
"Good!"
"Fantastic, let's start quickly~"
As his words fell, the atmosphere in the arena instantly boiled over.
People cheered and jumped, looking forward to this final showdown.
At this moment, the Pumpkin Host shouted again: "Let's welcome Fairy Tail Team B — Wendy!"
Hearing her name called, Wendy stood up resolutely.
Her petite body exuded a tenacious strength that was truly moving.
Wendy took a deep breath, then stepped forward, and said in a clear voice, "I'm ready~"
"No problem, Wendy!"
"Haha, it's up to you~"
Amidst the blessings of her companions, Wendy walked with light steps, a feeling of anticipation in her heart, and jogged towards the center of the arena.
Her face was beaming with confidence and courage, showing that she was ready to face any challenge.
The Pumpkin Host continued to introduce loudly: "Lamia Scale — Sherria"
When the identities of the two contestants were announced, the audience immediately became even more excited.
Looking at the two cute lolis that appeared before them, their eyes glowed with red hearts, and their hearts were filled with anticipation.
Cheers and screams rose and fell, pushing the entire venue to a climax.
"Hahaha, thank you, Everyone, I'll do my best!" Sherria ran out of the aisle cheerfully, offering her brightest smile to the surrounding audience.
Her eyes revealed an innocent joy that made people want to get close to her.
"Um… hello, my name is Wendy, it's nice to be able to compete with you," Wendy greeted Sherria somewhat shyly.
"Hello, hello, my name is Sherria, nice to meet you, please guide me," Sherria replied with a smile.
However, a small incident occurred while they were running and greeting each other.
"Ouch~"
Bang~
The two of them ran and greeted each other, but accidentally tripped over a stone in the arena at the same time, falling directly to the ground.
...
"Daijobu, Wendy~" Carla stood on the stage, looking at Wendy's muddled appearance, and felt a headache.
She shook her head helplessly, wondering when this little scatterbrain would become a bit more clever? However, she still decided to trust Wendy's ability, after all, Wendy had always been a very hardworking child.
"Don't worry, Wendy will definitely be fine!" Happy raised his hands high, saying with certainty.
He was full of confidence in Wendy, feeling that Wendy would definitely achieve good results in this competition.
Although Wendy could sometimes be a bit muddled, her strength should not be underestimated.
Just then, a voice suddenly appeared behind the cats: "It looks like their magic power and spirit are perfectly fine!" Panther Lily frowned, ready to see who had stolen his line.
"Ah~ Who is it!" Happy next to him directly cried out in surprise.
Startled by the sudden voice, he looked around vigilantly.
"Idiot Happy, can't you tell by the voice?! I can tell, isn't it the Fourth Guild Master!" Tami crossed her arms, proudly turning her head and smilingly said to Zorn.
She proudly showed off her hearing, as if it was a very remarkable thing.
"Haha, Zorn, you're back!!" Simi, seeing Zorn, immediately flew up happily and rushed into Zorn's embrace.
She wagged her tail excitedly and rubbed her head against Zorn's chest, indicating welcome.
Zorn gently stroked Simi's head and said with a smile, "Yes, I'm back."
"And you, kid, you haven't learned anything from Laxus except this arrogance! It's not bad, with me and Laxus around, it's okay to be a bit arrogant!"
Zorn directly poked Tami's forehead with a finger, then rubbed her head encouragingly.
"Oh, right, Zorn, tomorrow's final day of the competition… Mmph, mmph~" Simi, in Zorn's arms, lifted her head, just about to say something to Zorn.
Halfway through Simi's sentence, she was suddenly pulled down by Tami, who covered her mouth to prevent her from continuing.
"I said Simi, you can't say this… Didn't we agree to keep it a secret!" Tami whispered something into Simi's ear.
The voice was quite low, but Zorn heard it clearly, and so he smiled bitterly with helplessness.
When he had just returned to the guild, he also felt a strange atmosphere; every member looked at him with ill intentions, and after making eye contact, they would secretly smirk with schadenfreude.
The Third Guild Master even secretly said, "Zorn, I couldn't help you this time either!" and then said nothing more.
When he went to find Laxus, he completely ignored him, not saying a word, being very cold.
He couldn't even get close to Cana, who was strictly controlled by Mirajane and Erza.
Under their surveillance, Cana could only secretly give him an apologetic look.
"What exactly is going on?" Zorn asked in confusion.
Simi struggled free from Tami's hand, panting, and said, "They're going to give you a surprise!"
"Surprise?" Zorn was even more confused.
Simi nodded, saying mysteriously, "Yes, a big, big surprise! But I can't tell you what it is yet."
Zorn shook his head helplessly, smiling in his heart, and accepted the guild's arrangement.
They must have their reasons.
"The match has started!" Zorn reminded.
The cats immediately focused their attention on the arena below.
...
"Hoo~" Wendy closed her eyes and exhaled deeply. She secretly made up her mind: "For today, I've trained well for a while, I must bring out all my strength!"
Thinking of this, she took another deep breath, and the magic power in her body was instantly mobilized.
Air began to circulate around Wendy, and her magic power emitted a pink glow.
Immediately after, Wendy extended her hands and shouted loudly: "Swift wind that gallops in the sky! Power Boost!" As her words fell,
a green light directly enveloped Wendy's body.
Her speed instantly increased to the extreme.
However, this was not enough.
Wendy continued to cast magic, she shouted again: "Power that tears the sky! Arms, thighs, fists! Attack Power Enhance!"
This time, a powerful aura rushed through the entire venue, even making Sherria's clothes flutter.
Her limbs once again glowed blue.
"So strong~ Is this Wendy!" Sherria's eyes became exceptionally bright at this moment, she stared closely at Wendy, feeling the powerful fighting spirit from the other party, her own fighting spirit also surged forth.
