Ten Wizard Saints

The Ten Wizard Saints (聖十 大魔導Seiten Daimadou) are the ten most powerful and skilled mages in the world. A Mage is granted this title by the Chairman of the Magic Council. They are first mentioned by Gray Fullbuster. It must be inferred that strength is not the only qualification for this title, due to the existence of several incredibly powerful mages who are not themselves Wizard Saints.

Strength
The strengths of the Ten Wizard Saints are well-renowned throughout the continent. They are exceptionally strong, able to take on scores of average mages with ease and defeat more powerful mages with little effort. For instance, Jose was able to fend off and overwhelm a number of the Fairy Tail members with his Shades and defeat Erza Scarlet, an S-Class mage, fairly quickly(although she was wounded and tired). Another example is Ur, who imprisioned and slayed Deliora, a demon who was said to be "immortal" and extremely powerful: despite this act, Ur was not even recognized as being on the level of a Wizard Saint, even though her potential to become one was clear. Furthermore, their strength is so great that if two members fought each other, it could cause a "cataclysm". However, this does not mean all the members are on the same level of power. Makarov, the Guild Master of Fairy Tail, quickly defeated Jose, the guild master of Fairy Tail's rival, Phantom Lord, when the two fought each other.

Jura has stated that he is the weakest of the Ten Wizard Saints, and furthermore suggested that the power gap between himself and Makarov is enormous. Even if Jura is the weakest Wizard Saint (this has yet to be proven), Jura's power was able to defeat one of the most powerful Dark Guild Masters, Brain, of Oración Seis. It is implied that Wizard Saints are more powerful than Guild Masters who are not, as many of the Guild Masters who are not Wizard Saints respect Makarov.
