"Roar..." After the previous showdown between beauties, another beauty contest was about to begin, and the men in the audience roared once again...
Chapter Twenty-Three: Another Challenge!
"Who do you think will win?" Frosch, the Koneko of Sabertooth Rogue, asked Sting's Koneko Lector.
"It's obviously Yukino! Why can't Frosch even understand something like this?!" Lector shouted at Frosch in frustration;
"Frosch thinks so too."
"We're in a pretty bad situation now. Rufus was instantly killed, Sting forfeited. If we don't win this match, our situation is dire!" Orga said to the others. Sabertooth currently has 11 points. One point came from Rufus being hit a few more times by Gildarts, which put him in 8th place. The other 10 points came from Orga taking down the guy with the Four Beasts yesterday. Their current ranking is very precarious.
Rufus and Sting's expressions changed, but there was nothing they could do. It would be strange if they didn't get killed when they encountered Gildarts. Sting, because he was Dragon Slayer Mage and not used to transportation, also forfeited and received zero points.
"No, Lord Sting was just unlucky. Gildarts from Fairy Tail also got a zero, didn't he? If he had known it was on the transportation..." Yukino said.
"That kind of thing is irrelevant. You understand your significance to this team, right?" Sting interrupted Yukino and said to her.
"We fight to uphold the name of the Sabertooth, and we must win!" Yukino said, gazing ahead.
Mermaid Heel, "Go for it, Kagura!"
"Keep cheering me on too...!"
"But that opponent is Sabertooth...!"
"Kagura's even stronger...!" Kagura's four teammates exclaimed.
"Don't worry...! She's no match for me...!" With that, Earth Flow.
"So, there won't be any more cover girl battles...!" Azuma, the old man, said in a serious tone. Makarov's childhood friend, was certainly no saint either.
"Oh dear...! Although... personally, I also prefer that kind..."
"It's not appropriate to make that kind of request for two such cool people to sit together!" Jayson said.
"Kagura's strength is as we know it. She is the strongest mage at Mermaid Heel and is currently the top-ranked female mage in the Mage Weekly. Although she was made to cry by some unscrupulous person yesterday, it does not diminish our recognition of her strength."
Kagura blushed when she heard the final introduction, but gradually calmed down;
The Fairy Tail members turned their attention to Chen Fan, Chen Fan grinned fiercely and said, "I didn't make her cry at all! I didn't even move a muscle from beginning to end!"
"Maybe it's because you didn't move that she cried. You could have just moved a little! Why did you have to stand there pretending to be a top expert? She used all her strength from beginning to end and didn't let you move an inch. Nobody could withstand that!"
"That's right, that's right...!"
"I think Chen Fan is just showing off...!"
"He loves using this trick to pick up girls...!"
"I've always used it before..."
"I also saw him peeping at women bathing in the public bathhouse."...
Chen Fan felt a chill run down his spine. These bastards seemed determined to expose all his past secrets...! And why were they spreading rumors? The First Generation was right here! Chen Fan turned around and saw Mavis looking unhappy, so he quickly went to comfort her.
"Kagura's opponent this time, Yukino, is participating for the first time, but Hikaru belongs to the strongest guild..."
"Shh... shh..."
