The guilds participate in a battle royal within the city for the games' final event. While the other teams eliminate Quatro Puppy's team and endanger Fairy Tail's lead, Fairy Tail's team remains motionless, to their guild's confusion. Mavis Vermillion reveals she is telepathically relaying a battle strategy to them, which she has formulated based on their opponents' behavior throughout the tournament, allowing her to predict their moves. After Fairy Tail eliminates Blue Pegasus under Mavis's direction, Gray Fullbuster faces Saber Tooth's Rufus Lore. Meanwhile, Natsu's team infiltrates the palace and rescues the celestial wizards, but Hisui E. Fiore, the kingdom's princess, drops the wizards down into the palace dungeon, the Palace of Hades.
