The mages were looking towards the exit for their teammates. They knew Chen Fan's power better than the ignorant masses, because whether it was Chen Fan destroying Phantom Lord with a single kick, crushing Nirvana, or destroying the Magic Council, it was all justified. Chen Fan's strength was not unfounded. Although he had disappeared for seven years, no one dared to say that they could surpass Chen Fan's achievements.
When Chen Fan and his team came out...
Natsu and Gray stared wide-eyed. Chen Fan led the way, followed by Gildarts, Mystogan, Erza Knightwalker, and the black cat Lili.
"Gildarts...!!!"
"Mystogan...!!"
"Erza...!"
"Lili!"
"This guy's definitely not just here to mess around! He's aiming for first place!" Natsu and Gray shouted in unison, their eyes practically bulging out. "By the way, why Mystogan and Erza here too?!"
"Ah, there's another Erza...! Hello, beautiful lady, I'm Hibiki from Blue Pegasus!"
"I am Lotus!"
"I am Ivan...!"
"I am One Night...!" The four members of the Blue Pegasus group rushed in front of Erza Knightwalker, vying to introduce themselves;
"Ah..." Erza glared, but the Azeroth's Erza wasn't as good-tempered as the Erza in this book; one glare and all three of them ran away.
Erza arrived in front of Azeroth's Erza, smiling, and said, "Now we can continue our battle that we hadn't finished."
"Bang! I think so too!" Erza Knightwalker said with a smile, pointing her gun at the ground.
"Lili...! Why..." Gajeel looked at Lili with teary eyes and began to speak;
"It's His Highness the Prince's request, and I can't disobey it. However, Gajeel, the battle where you wanted me to become your partner wasn't completed. I was forced into becoming your partner by Chen Fan. If you want me to be truly convinced, then show me your true strength and make me your partner!!" Lili said, looking at Gajeel.
Gajeel smiled upon hearing this and said, "I knew something was off. This time, I'll make you willingly become my cat!"
"Gildarts ...! You...you weren't on a trip?" Natsu asked, his voice trembling slightly as he looked at Gildarts.
Gildarts gave a wry smile and said, "I was originally going on a trip, but I was accidentally caught by Chen Fan on the way. He threatened me with all sorts of things to Kana if I didn't come back, so I had no choice but to return!"
After saying that, his eyes turned serious as he looked at Natsu and said, "Natsu! I went easy on you during the S-Class Exam. I heard you've trained hard for three months this time, so let me see your results and progress! This time, I won't let you pass so easily!"
Natsu paused for a moment, then clenched his fist excitedly and shouted, "Whoa... Just you wait and see, Gildarts! I'm on fire...!!!"
"Mystogan ...! You..." Gray said, looking at Mystogan.
"Chen Fan summoned us here, saying he wanted us to attend the grand gathering of mages. I couldn't refuse his request!" Mystogan said.
"Seriously...! That bastard! He's really not happy with being second!" Gray scratched his head and said with a wry smile;
"Lord Chen Fan! As agreed seven years ago, I challenge you!" Jura said as she approached Chen Fan.
Chen Fan grinned mischievously and said, "The consequences could be dire..."
Jura trembled at Chen Fan's wicked grin. Chen Fan was unpredictable; would he really embarrass him? She quietly leaned close to Chen Fan's ear, covering her mouth with her hand, and whispered, "We need to fight for at least three hundred rounds! I'm the Fifth Seat of the Ten Great Wizard Saints; I need to save face!"
Looking at Chen Fan, Gildarts, Mystogan, and Erza, he said, "This tastes absolutely awful..."
"Uh-huh..."
