Water restriction, Zhupia's signature water magic.
As soon as it hits, the body will float in the water ball, unable to move and gain momentum. Over time, it will suffocate to death.
"Water Stream Cuts Through!"
Seeing the water ball trap George, Zhupia dared not be careless and immediately conjured up a dozen water blades, cutting towards George from all directions.
However, George was not concerned about this.
"Apparate."
The figure flickered, and he directly teleported away from the water ball, appearing behind Zhupia at a distance, evading all the attacks.
"Seven million volts!"
A powerful surge of electricity erupted from George's body, striking Zhupia who had transformed into water.
Waterization can ignore any physical attack, but it cannot be immune to magic attacks.
Additionally, since lightning-based magic naturally counters water-based magic, Zhupia was immediately electrocuted out of her water transformation.
"Water Stream Whip!"
Biting back the physical spasms and shakes caused by the current, Zhupia controlled the water whip to draw it from George, trying to stop George from continuing to release electricity.
However, with a flash of electricity from George's body, he managed to easily sidestep the attack of the water whip with his small cat form and lightning-like speed, arriving in front of her.
"I'm sorry, Zhupia."
The magic wand was pointed at Zhupia's forehead.
"Drop unconscious!"
Zhupia immediately lost consciousness and fell to the ground unconscious.
"Eightth Arena, victor, George!"
Mira Zhen, seeing the match end over there, flew over and loudly announced the results of the competition.
The crowd of Spectators who had been eliminated from Fairy Tail Magic had also begun to discuss.
"Zhupia is an S-class member, yet she was defeated so easily by George. George's strength is truly getting stronger."
Most of the Fairy Tail Magic Users do not know the specific details of the Paradise Tower incident. They still perceive George's strength as it was during his fight against the Ghost.
At that time, George was indeed strong, but not as strong as he is now. He fought an S-class Zhupia effortlessly and confidently, knowing in one glance that he was on a completely different level.
After George released Zhupia from the curse that caused her to fall unconscious, he also began to pay attention to the ongoing matches in other arenas.
Lakasus is indeed strong; he usually ends his fights with a single move. This time, he was facing the Saltsuck from the Rebi team, who was also quite formidable, but still defeated in one move.
Ibaraglin fought Elman, using her petrification eyes, Elman had to close his eyes and fight. Also, Ibaraglin could fly, so in the end, she was petrified and defeated.
Rebi defeated Gajiru, but George could tell that Gajiru was holding back. The reason behind this was intriguing.
The most eye-catching and longest match was between Grey and Bicross. Their powers were evenly matched, and by the end, both were almost simultaneously exhausted from their magic and fell unconscious, resulting in a tie.
However, due to their severe injuries, they could not continue to the next round and both were eliminated.
Therefore, the final round of the tournament had a total of thirteen winners.
George, Lakasus, Eliza, Ibaraglin, Rebi, Frieda, Kana, Macao, Vecia, Bisque, Arzenx and Lucy.
Not bad, Lucy had also successfully advanced to the top thirteen.
In George's opinion, Lucy is still very strong; she just lacks self-confidence.
Without counting the other Star Spirits, just the Aquarius and Leo ones, if placed in other magic guilds, both possess S-class strength.
So in a real fight, Lucy's strength is definitely a contender for the top ten in the guild.
However, today she clearly did not need to show much strength, as her luck was too good. In the fourth round draw, she drew a bye and advanced directly to the top seven without any battle.
"Natsu, that's great, I've made it to the top seven. I can get a bonus of 50,000 gold coins, which will cover my rent next month."
After Lucy's draw was over, she excitedly ran over to tell Natsu, who was sitting on the ground, about her success and how she had advanced to the top seven, securing a bonus of 50,000 gold coins.
Natsu, still in a self-protective mode after his defeat to Eliza in the second round, heard Lucy's words and weakly replied:
"Who asked you to stay in the guild's free dormitory instead of renting an apartment outside."
"I'm more comfortable living alone, it's a bit more freedom."
Seeing Natsu in a bad mood, Lucy comforted him:
"Don't be discouraged. Losing to Eliza is normal; she is Eliza after all."
Parallel to Natsu, Happy pulled out a fish from her little package and ate it while complaining:
"One leg!"
In the fourth round, there were six arenas, and George's opponent this time was a weaker one, Valian Lackow, who was skilled in using telepathy magic. The battle ended with a single strike.
Telepathy magic is similar to mental abilities. It can be used to read minds and communicate in a certain range during combat.
Unfortunately, Valian couldn't read George's mind due to his mental abilities and brain shielding techniques.
George was very interested in telepathy magic, as he thought learning it would enhance his mental abilities and the effect of soul-stripping and memory theft.
After completing the century-long mission, he plans to include this series of magic in his learning plan.
After taking care of his own opponent, George began to watch the other arenas' matches with everyone else.
Before long, the fourth round was over, and the top seven were determined.
They were George, Lakasus, Eliza, Ibaraglin, Frieda, Kana and Lucy.
Lakasus and the Thunder God group are indeed strong. The only exceptions were Bicross and Grey, who fought to a draw and had to retire early, while Ibaraglin and Frieda both advanced, with the battle process being relatively effortless for both.
The fifth round draw began.
Lakasus battled Kana, Eliza faced Ibaraglin, George fought Frieda, and Lucy once again drew a bye.
"I must be under the favor of the goddess of luck today!"
Lucy was overjoyed.
Lakasus vs Kana, Lakasus won.
Eliza vs Ibaraglin, everyone expected a fierce battle, but Eliza had a false eye that could ignore Ibaraglin's petrification eyes. In a few moves, she defeated Ibaraglin, showing her who the true fairy queen was.
The last match, George vs Frieda.
"I know you're strong, but today I must defeat you because only then can Lakasus fulfill his wish to become the guild master."
Fried stood across from George, drawing out his own Western-style magical sword.
"You may not know, although I haven't become an S-class member in the guild, I have defeated many S-class black magic users outside!"
In this round, if he defeats George, then Lakasus will undoubtedly be the champion of the tournament, allowing him to take the position of guild master smoothly.
That new recruit, Lucy, is all luck and nothing to mention. Eliza, although her strength exceeded his expectations and defeated Ibaraglin, is certainly not a match for Lakasus.
It's precisely George, whose strength is too profound to be measured. Whether it's his performance in the information, or the recent mountain-moving and mountain-cutting magic, it all proves that his strength is at least S-class and even one of the stronger S-classes.
A big threat to Lakasus.
