These words were like a spark falling directly into a barrel filled with explosives, and the atmosphere in the hall instantly exploded!
Everyone was immediately itchy. No one doesn't like to be in the limelight. If so, it's just that he can't be in the limelight.
For Fairy Tail people who are usually very expressive, the attraction of "showing off all over the town" far exceeds money to some extent!
Macao, who was originally carefree, raised his head and looked at the silver-rimmed ring [16] above his head. His waist straightened unconsciously, and his whole body became stiff.
Next to him, Wakaba stared at the silver rim above Macao's head, his eyes red with jealousy, and the pipe in his mouth made a crunching sound, almost scrapping it on the spot.
Happy looked at the supreme frame on Lucy's head with special effects that could blind people's eyes with salivation:
"We also want that sparkling frame! Lucy, how about you secretly lose to us later and let us experience it too."
"Don't even think about it!" Lucy covered his head as if to protect himself.
On the stage, Evergreen unfolded Folding Fan with a swish sound, half covering his face.
However, her eyes were fixed on the bright frame with the fairy logo above Lucy's head, and an uncontrollable whisper came from behind the fan:
"Participating in the parade with such a ranking frame... Humph, that gorgeous frame like a fairy, looking at the entire guild, only I am worthy of it...!"
"And then... the last reward."
Blanc's voice slowed down, and his originally frivolous smile faded slightly.
His eyes slowly passed over the noisy crowd, and finally fell directly on the stage, the burly figure that exuded a terrifying low pressure from beginning to end:
"The next Guild Master's inheritance right!"
The lively atmosphere in the hall suddenly felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured on it.
Laxus's pupils suddenly shrank, and a burst of lightning suddenly erupted from his body, causing a circle of scorch marks on the stage boards around him.
"Even if Guild Master doesn't agree when the time comes, it doesn't matter if we don't let the first place become the fourth generation."
Blanc rested his hands on the railing with his hands free, leaning slightly, with an undisguised tone of bewitchment in his voice,
"Because, when I become the fourth generation, I will directly let the first place become the fifth generation."
"How about it, Laxus? This is not only a competition for the strongest Fairy Tail, but also a competition for the position of the next Guild Master. Do you want to participate?"
Laxus stared hard at the smiling face on the second floor. The guild was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
There was silence for a while.
Laxus's shoulders trembled lowly, the corners of his mouth gradually curved into a ferocious arc, and he let out a low sneer.
"Huh..."
"Interesting! Okay! Just follow your rules."
He raised his hand and pointed his fingertips directly at the first square on the light screen that was facing the starlight. "I will trample all of you trash under my feet - and then I will take over this guild myself!"
Lucy shrank his neck.
'Then, um... how about forgetting it? Let's just find a way to make money later...'
"You brat--!!! What the hell are you talking about on your own terms?!"
Until then, Makarov Guild Master in the audience finally recovered from the series of shocks. His whole face instantly turned the color of pig liver, and the veins on his forehead were beating like drums, and he yelled at Blanc on the second floor.
Everyone in the hall nodded in unison.
Guild Master It's time to teach this lawless boy a lesson!
The activity is good, but the position of Guild Master is so important, how can it be treated as a competition reward in such a childish manner.
However, immediately after, Makarov Guild Master's next sentence made everyone break:
"Although the position of Guild Master is not important, it is not something you brats can just use as bets, you bastards!!"
'It turns out that Guild Master's position is not important...' Everyone staggered in shock, and the corners of their mouths twitched.
Makarov rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush to the second floor angrily. However, a big hand suddenly pressed his shoulder.
"Don't be so impatient, Guild Master."
Gildarts came over at some point. The cold look on his face had long since faded, replaced by a look of interest:
"Times have changed. Young people have young people's ideas and solutions. We can just watch quietly for now."
Now that it was confirmed that his baby daughter Cana was safe and sound, the uncle instantly entered pure melon-eating mode.
Gildarts touched his chin, his eyes turned back and forth between the smiling face beside the railing on the second floor and the ferocious face on the stage, and then glanced at the one above him [6], narrowed his eyes slightly, and laughed meaningfully.
This game seems to be very interesting.
Upstairs, Blanc looked away with a slight guilt, ignoring Guild Master who was arguing with Gildarts below.
"The above are all the rules for this Ranking Battle. For the rest, please explore on your own!"
He stood up straight, opened his arms suddenly, and a clear voice spread throughout the hall:
"Then--Fairy Tail·Ranking Battle, let's officially begin!"
As the words fell, the air in the entire guild hall seemed to be ignited in an instant!
"Oh oh oh oh--!!"
Elfman clenched his fists and shouted to the sky, "Three hours! I will knock down all the guys in front! This is what a man is!!"
Natsu raised his head and spit out a mouthful of blazing flames. "I'm completely on fire!"
With a stabbing sound, Gray pulled with one hand and threw his shirt away smoothly. "Fourth place can't satisfy me! My goal is the top!"
Juvia blushed. "Gray Master, clothes..."
Mira held his face with a smile and sighed, "Oh, everyone is really full of energy~"
The hall was agitated for a while, and everyone was excited and gearing up.
However, immediately afterwards, the eyes of more than a hundred Wizard were uniformly focused in the same direction - Lucy.
To be precise, she was looking at the gorgeous long frame above her head that represented the apex of the guild and was crazily streaming with bright starlight.
"Lucy--!! Come to a duel! Give me the first place--!!"
"Natsu, get out of the way, Lucy is my prey!"
"Lucy! Let's have a showdown between men!"
"Wow! Don't come over here!!"
The overwhelming invitations to fight scared Lucy out of his wits. At the critical moment, Lucy caught sight of Erza, who was meditating next to him.
As if she saw a life-saving straw, she rushed over and hugged Erza's arm beside her, crying for help:
"Erza! Help! Everyone is trying to eat me!"
However, Erza, who usually protects his companions the most, slowly turned his head after listening and stared at her seriously:
"Lucy, let's show off!"
