"I didn't expect to encounter a Ten Wizard Saints as an opponent on the very first day!"
Mavis looked at Jura below, and a surge of unprecedented worry welled up in her heart.
One must know that those who could earn the title of "Ten Wizard Saints" were all top-tier powerhouses standing at the peak of this continent.
Facing such an opponent, it was inevitable to worry about Laxus.
"Don't worry, First Master!"
Zorn, who was beside her, seemed to notice Mavis's unease, and a confident smile appeared on his face: "If Laxus wanted to become a Ten Wizard Saints, with his strength, he would already be among the Ten Wizard Saints!!"
Hearing Zorn's words, Mavis's mood calmed down a bit.
Mavis nodded, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes.
Gajeel, however, was very puzzled by everyone's solemn expressions.
He scratched his head and asked curiously, "I say! Is that bald guy really strong? Why are you all so nervous?"
"Very strong!" Mirajane and Erza exchanged glances and answered in unison.
Their tone was full of recognition for Jura's strength.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the arena was extremely tense.
Jura's hands were crossed inside his sleeves, a confident smile on his face, but his eyes revealed a resolute determination.
He said softly, "I'm very sorry, but for our Guild, and to prevent our grandma from constantly nagging, even Fairy Tail cannot stop us!!!"
"Hmph~ My pleasure!!!"
Meanwhile, Laxus displayed a high fighting spirit.
He tightly clenched his fists, and powerful magical fluctuations emanated from his entire body, as if declaring his determination and strength to Jura.
The entire scene was on the verge of exploding, and an intense battle was about to erupt…
Both sides' clothes fluttered in the wind.
Bang~ Laxus suddenly took a step forward, and the ground instantly shattered, accompanied by the continuous crackling of golden lightning in the arena.
His figure had already teleported behind Jura, and as he raised his leg, countless bolts of lightning gathered like a tide. His eyes narrowed, and his leg, imbued with infinite power, heavily struck downwards.
"Hmph~ Not bad!"
Jura did not panic at the sight. He held two fingers together and gently raised his hand, causing the earth to tremble violently. A massive rock-iron pillar suddenly burst out from the ground below, meeting Laxus's fierce kick with lightning speed.
A deafening roar, a thunderous boom, and smoke filled the surroundings.
While the audience was anxiously wondering what was happening inside.
Countless even larger rock-iron pillars then continuously surged out from the ground within the smoke, striking towards Laxus like a dense rain of arrows.
Laxus, however, moved agilely, like a phantom, freely weaving through the gaps in the rock-earth pillars' attacks.
He leaped directly above Jura, his eyes filled with excitement.
As he raised his hand, a violent lightning explosion shot out from it like a cannonball.
Jura below had an equally solemn gaze. He clapped his hands forcefully and shouted, "Multiple—Rock-Iron Wall!"
As his voice fell, his magic power surged wildly.
The ground trembled violently again, and several incredibly hard rock-iron walls rose from the ground, tightly encircling Jura.
Boom! Another deafening explosion sounded, and the strong hurricane caused by the explosion swept through like a storm, directly lifting the rubble on the ground and smashing it like meteors against the light screen of the audience stands, but they were all firmly blocked.
However, the fierce wind made everyone grip the railings tightly to prevent themselves from being blown away.
"Hahaha, as expected of Laxus!!" Natsu was ecstatic when he saw this. With such magic, the opponent would surely surrender.
Laxus is an S-class Magician in the Fairy Tail Guild! His strength is very powerful!
"Mr. Jura?" Sherria of Lamia Scale on the other side spoke out with worry when she saw this scene.
"There's no need to worry about Mr. Jura. The opponent is just an S-class Magician from Fairy Tail. In my heart, Mr. Jura is the strongest Magician in the Fiore Kingdom!" Lyon crossed his arms, his eyes filled with confidence in Jura.
"Rock-Iron Fist!" As Jura's roar sounded, a cloud of smoke spread out.
From the smoke, a massive iron fist suddenly shot out.
Laxus, seeing this, grinned widely, looking very happy.
This match was truly exhilarating; there was no need to hold back at all. Once he dealt with this uncle, he definitely had to have a good match with Zorn.
Laxus took a deep breath, his chest swelled, and golden lightning flickered at his mouth.
"Lightning Dragon's Roar~" Laxus let out a furious roar, and a beam of lightning blasted towards the rock-iron fist.
With a thunderous boom, the rock-iron fist shattered, and the Lightning Dragon's Roar continued to rush towards Jura.
The lightning beam carried violent lightning sparks, and wherever it passed, the air was ionized, emitting crackling sounds.
Jura dared not be careless in the slightest. He clapped his hands and quickly cast magic, a rock-iron wall, attempting to block Laxus's attack.
However.
Laxus's Lightning Dragon's Roar was like a ferocious giant beast, easily tearing through Jura's sturdy defense with overwhelming force.
Jura, seeing this, was surprised. He quickly raised a finger, his eyes focused, and his gaze fixed upwards. A massive rock pillar instantly rose beneath his feet, lifting him rapidly into the air, successfully avoiding the fatal blow.
"So strong, but this is just the beginning!" Jura's lips curled into a sly smile, and he brought his hands together like a sword, fiercely swinging them towards Laxus.
He truly lives up to being Master Makarov's descendant; youth is indeed wonderful!
In an instant, countless sharp rock-iron spikes, like dense arrows, shot out overwhelmingly towards Laxus.
"Damn it, long-range attacks are too troublesome!"
Laxus's eyes narrowed. His body suddenly burst forth with countless dazzling lightning glows. Then, he stepped into the void, his figure like lightning, rapidly weaving through the gaps of the rock-iron spikes, rushing towards Jura.
"If that's the case, then let's have a close-quarters fight!" Laxus roared. The surging lightning around him gradually condensed, directly enveloping his body in an indestructible protective armor.
He clenched his fist, and deep, dark Armament Haki quickly covered the lightning like ink.
In the blink of an eye, a Thunder Dragon Halberd, shimmering with black and gold light, gradually formed in his hand.
As Laxus swung his arm, the black and gold lightning, like a winding, coiling dragon, smashed fiercely towards Jura with unparalleled might.
"Oh! That power!!!"
Jura's eyes were fixed intently forward, as if trying to see through that layer to the deep-seated mystery hidden within.
He witnessed firsthand how the originally wild and rampant lightning, after being draped in that dark and mysterious substance, gradually converged, becoming calm and restrained, but at the same time, an extremely dangerous aura quietly permeated the air.
This aura was like a slumbering giant beast, quiet for now, but capable of erupting with earth-shattering power at any moment.
Facing such immense power, Jura not only showed no fear but was instead stirred by his inner fighting spirit.
He violently shook his hands, and his muscles instantly tensed. Layers of hard rock, like steel, covered the surface of his body, forming an indestructible shield.
His lower body was as stable as a mountain, rooted in the earth, and an endless stream of magic power surged out from within him, gathering in his hands.
As Jura moved, a dark rock-iron staff slowly took shape. This rock-iron staff was no ordinary weapon; it was forged by Jura from the hardest rock-iron he had ever condensed.
These rock-iron were like a small mountain forcibly compressed together, their hardness simply unimaginable.
Learning on the fly, that's not bad!
At this moment, Jura was ready. He intended to use this rock-iron staff to personally experience that mysterious and powerful force. He believed that only through actual combat could he truly understand the essence and characteristics of this power.
So, without hesitation, he took a step forward, the rock-iron staff in his hand shimmering with a dark luster, carrying unparalleled might, and smashed fiercely towards that mysterious power…
