#RUFUS FAIRY TAIL SERIES#
Whether it's Sting assuming he can beat Natsu despite seeing his strength and determination first-hand, Orga deciding that the best course of action would be to attack one of the Ten Wizard Saints head-on despite having seen this man hit a target with over twice his own magic power just days prior, or Minerva kidnapping and torturing a mutual friend of her opponents despite knowing (and exploiting) the fact that the series runs on The Power of Friendship, they never seem to learn until they're eventually defeated ( with the exception of Minerva, who just gets worse). Bullying a Dragon: To a ridiculous extent.Fortunately, after losing in the final challenge, they take these losses to heart, and decide to better themselves.

Then, on the third day, though Rufus manages to defeat Eve without issue, Orga gets thoroughly shown up by both Erza and Cana. Though on the first day they proceed to dominate all the events they participate in, on the second day they get no points, with Sting getting stuck on a vehicle-themed challenge, and Yukino being soundly defeated by Kagura.
