Laxus, Gildarts, Erza, Makarov?

Natsu and Gray were both taken aback.

For them, these names have always been a nightmare.

Now, suddenly, they've become obstacles in my path.

The pressure was clearly immense for both of them.

Their gazes fell on Erza simultaneously.

Indeed, it's always better to pick the softest persimmon.

"Hehe, Bai Yu, you don't mind if we make a move," Gildarts said with a smile, raising his wine glass.

"I have grasped the basics of what you taught me. I never imagined that such power existed in this world. If word gets out, it will be an epoch-making discovery."

"It's a pity you didn't even call me 'Father-in-law,' otherwise I would have hit the jackpot."

For Gildarts, being able to spend even a day in the guild has always been a good thing.

After all, feeling the murderous glare from Cana, he had already planned to slip away as soon as possible.

However, to his utter surprise, Bai Yu would later come to him and teach him a special skill.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Gildarts would never have imagined that such a way of using power existed in this world.

After trying it himself repeatedly, Gildarts finally understood why Bai Yu was so powerful.

" Gildarts, let's forget about calling him father-in-law. I'm afraid Cana won't let me get free drinks from her anymore," Bai Yu said helplessly, rubbing the tip of his nose.

"However, I was quite surprised that you were able to control this power; I suppose it's fate."

"Later, who knows, we might be able to let Laxus give it a try."

At this point, Bai Yu looked at Laxus, Thunder God Tribe and had his ears perked up.

"Hmph, these so-called good intentions are nothing but a shameful handout to Lord Laxus. We don't want them." Bickslow snorted coldly, clearly displeased.

In their eyes, Laxus had indeed suffered a crushing defeat at Bai Yu's hands.

However, it's only a matter of time before they get their revenge.

What new power? To Laxus, in their eyes, was nothing but a disgrace.

However, seeing the three of Freed silently nodding in agreement, Laxus almost couldn't resist slapping them.

After witnessing Bai Yu's methods and the changes in Erza and the others firsthand.

Laxus was already completely powerless against the power and methods hidden within Bai Yu.

If we can gain new power.

It can be considered both a disgrace and a handout.

Laxus, therefore, hoped that this so-called humiliation and handout would come even more fiercely.

Seeing Laxus's eyelids twitching, Makarov smiled reassuringly and shook his head.

"Alright, it's getting late. I've already chartered a boat to Tenrou Island. I hope everyone is ready, so let's set off immediately."

"At the same time, as the guild leader, I sincerely hope that everyone participating in the S-Class Mage assessment will pass smoothly."

After saying this, Makarov turned and walked towards the door.

Natsu and Gray rushed out first.

Seeing this, Bai Yu smiled, took a swig of his drink, and said, " Wendy, if you don't have any teammates this time, you can choose me."

Wendy, standing to the side, was taken aback at first, completely not expecting Bai Yu to say such a thing, and quickly shook her head.

"No, Brother Bai Yu Bai Yu, this S-Class Mage assessment is extremely important. I don't want to hold you back."

"I'll just go with Carla, Mest, and me."

"You should stay with Tatsumaki."

Mest?

Bai Yu raised an eyebrow and looked at a new face in the corner of the guild.

If I remember correctly, this guy who claims to be a disciple of Mystogan should be a pawn sent by the Magic Council.

In order to find incriminating evidence against Fairy Tail, he even erased his own memories and eventually infiltrated the guild.

It even rewrote the memories of other people.

However, these methods were all meaningless to Bai Yu, who possessed the system, and were not worth mentioning at all.

"Hmph, Wendy, don't worry about him. I'm not even a guild member yet, and even if I were, I wouldn't be his party partner, otherwise that would be cheating."

Tatsumaki gave a disgruntled, arrogant snort.

However, the way he looked at Wendy was noticeably more agreeable now.

After all, looking at the entire Fairy Tail Guild, only Wendy gives them a sliver of confidence.

Of course, Wendy clearly felt the same way.

At least, after learning that Tatsumaki was not young, and although she was short, she was at least of a certain size.

Wendy was confident that she would grow taller than Tatsumaki someday.

Then their confidence swelled up immediately.

At least with past examples to learn from, there's some safety net.

Therefore, from the moment they met, the two instantly felt a connection.

Perhaps this is what it means to stick together and keep warm.

Looking at the group that had quickly formed a team, Bai Yu helplessly touched the tip of his nose.

"Looks like I'm still destined to be a single dog."

"In that case, I'm enough on my own."

Bai Yu was 100% confident that he could pass the assessment.

In other guilds, knowing that passing the S-Class Mage exam is a given, everyone else would definitely take advantage of the opportunity.

However, Fairy Tail is an exception.

It's safe to say that if someone agrees to team up with Bai Yu, even if they later become S-Class Mage, they will definitely be looked down upon.

No one would do that unless they were a fool.

Seeing this result, Makarov couldn't help but smile. Just as he wanted, this was the Fairy Tail Guild he desired.

As everyone left, a series of urgent phone calls rang within the guild.

However, all of this seemed futile in the face of a guild that had long since been deserted.

Inside the Magic Council, Lahar, his face ashen, gripped the magical phone tightly in his hand. After waiting for three or four minutes, he slammed it down.

"Former councilor of Yajima, is there perhaps no way to contact the Fairy Tail people? This is a major incident. If it's not handled properly, not only the Kingdom of Fiore, but the entire Ishgar Continent could be destroyed."

"We absolutely must contact the Fairy Tail people as soon as possible. What on earth are those guys up to?"

Twenty minutes later, the Magic Council unexpectedly obtained an encrypted letter.

The Magic Council hadn't taken it seriously at first.

Unfortunately, upon closer inspection, they discovered that the name left on it was the same as that of the king of the small country that had been destroyed three days prior, instantly putting them on edge and prompting them to quickly decipher it.

Only after receiving the final decryption results did Lahar realize the seriousness of the matter.
