After the first battle of the day between Lucy Heartfilia and Flare Corona finished, the second match is decided to be between Team Blue Pegasus's Ren Akatsuki and Team Mermaid Heel's Arania Web.

Battle
Note: The first part of the battle has not been shown.

After a few minutes of fighting, Ren compliments Arania's skill, noting that she had improved since last year. Arania then asks him if it's alright for a member of Blue Pegasus to attack a woman. In the announcer's booth, Chapati Lola notes that not one of the two sides are yielding and Shitou Yajima states that it's a good match. Jenny Realight then cheers for her guild mate, saying that Sherry Blendy is cheering for him too. Ren is stunned by his guild mate's comment, giving Arania the opening to attack him with her Web Magic.

In the stands, Sherry shouts at Ren, telling him to do his best. Her guild master scolds her for cheering for a rival team but a guild member notes that it's alright since Sherry is already engaged to Ren. Ren shouts at them, telling them that they're not engaged but are merely resigned to being together. He also states that it's irritating since Sherry is always hanging around her. However, he says that he's only at his best when they're together and that he cannot allow himself to look uncool in front of her. Ren then proceeds to attack Arania with Aerial Phose, defeating the Mermaid Heel Mage.

Aftermath
Being the victor of the second match, Ren is awarded 10 points, giving his guild a total of 14 points for the first day while Mermaid Heel is stuck with 3 points. With that, the second match officially ends and the third match between Team Quatro Cerberus's War Cry and Team Sabertooth's Orga Nanagear begins.
