Tournament of Power! Begin!
"It's too late to withdraw now," he said with a forced smile, turning to look at Beerus. "Lord Beerus, I told you we should have told them sooner."
"Enough talk, you'd better start fighting!" Beerus snorted. "You'd better fight properly!"
"This is really a headache!" GT Son Goku shook his head. "But there's no other way now."
"That's right!" Beerus sneered. "I believe in you. With so many strong players like you, it would be really unacceptable if you couldn't even achieve final victory."
"Understood." GT Son Goku nodded solemnly.
"Tch!" GT Vegeta was still annoyed.
Despite their dissatisfaction, the competition had to continue.
Beerus, Shin, the Grand Supreme Kai, the Old Kai, and Whis took to the air, left the ring, and sat in the stands.
"Beerus, you bastard! You've brought people from another timeline again!" Champa snorted from the stands and grinned. "If you didn't bring people from other universes, you wouldn't even be able to gather 10 people, would you?"
"How dare you say that! Aren't all those contestants from our original Universe 7?" Beerus shouted angrily.
"Kale and Caulifla, and Hit, no," Champa replied.
"The remaining seven are all from our universe!" Beerus roared.
"Hehehe!" Champa made a face at Beerus.
Beerus was seething with hatred, clenching his fists tightly, wishing he could rush forward and give Champa a good beating.
"Who can you blame for this? You gave up on Luo Tian back then because you thought he was nothing." Champa chuckled. "So, did you have eyes just for peeing?"
Beerus: "..."
Beerus was so angry that the veins on his forehead bulged and his body trembled violently.
If it weren't for the presence of the Lord Zeno, Beerus would have beaten Champa so badly he couldn't take care of himself.
"Master, look at that universe over there. That universe only has 8 contestants." Xin pointed to the contestants in one of the universes.
"That seems to be the Universe 4," the Grand Supreme Kai mused.
"It seems that it's not an easy task for other universes to gather 10 contestants," Old Kai nodded.
Bardock briefly explained a few words to the contestants from Universe 9, and finally focused his attention on Calorie.
"Don't look at me like that, I will live and die with the Universe 9!" Calorie smiled smugly.
Bardock nodded solemnly, stepped forward and patted Calorie's head, then left the ring with the Supreme Kai and the angel Mojito and appeared in the stands.
Xiao Ai had already transformed into a female robot and gave a brief final explanation to the contestants from the Universe 3.
Then, Xiao Ai flew up to the stands with the Supreme Kai and the angels.
Broly looked toward Xiao Ai with a serious expression, his eyes becoming increasingly complicated.
"Luo Tian... Xiao Ai..." Broly lowered his voice, unsure of what to say.
"Don't worry, even if the Universe 3 disappears, I will find a way to protect your Xiao Ai." Luo Tian smiled and gave Broly a reassuring look.
Broly was immediately overjoyed and let out a long sigh of relief.
At this moment, only the contestants remained on the arena; all other unrelated people and gods had left.
On this side of Universe 6.
"Uncle Piccolo, it seems there are only 8 people in that universe," Gohan asked Piccolo beside him.
"Yes." Piccolo nodded.
"Only eight people were found?" Caulifla was slightly taken aback.
"No... I can sense the auras of the other two people." Kale shook her head and stated her opinion.
"That's true," Caulifla replied. "Could it be something like an invisible man?"
"Are there really such players?" Gohan taken aback. "We need to be careful, lest someone suddenly pushes us off the cliff."
"Yes." Piccolo nodded.
"Now, let me explain the rules of the competition again." Luo Tian hovered in the center of the arena, looking down at the many contestants, and announced loudly, "The competition time is 100 taks! The pillar in the center of the arena will sink down over time. When the pillar is level with the ground, the competition will end! The way to win is to knock your opponent off the arena. Fallen contestants will be automatically transferred to the stands, so please don't worry."
At this point, Luo Tian paused for a moment and glanced around at the many contestants present.
Most of the contestants present couldn't help but swallow hard, feeling a little nervous.
This is a competition that concerns the fate of the universe.
"So, everyone, are you all ready?" Luo Tian asked with a smile.
The 80 contestants on site immediately rubbed their hands together, ready for battle.
"The Tournament of Power begins!" Luo Tian announced.
As soon as Luo Tian finished speaking, Android 17 from Universe 6 was the first to rush out.
Besides Android 17, Goku, Vegeta, Hit, Caulifla, Goten, and Trunks also rushed in all directions.
Only Piccolo, Gohan, and Kale remained in the same spot.
"What happened to teamwork...?" Gohan was speechless.
"Brother Gohan, the three of us, including Uncle Piccolo, are a team, right?" Kale said.
Gohan: "..."
Piccolo: "..."
The two fell silent for a moment.
However, a team of three is not a bad option.
Android 17 charged toward the contestants from a nearby universe.
The contestants from that universe were slightly taken aback when they saw Android 17 charging towards them, but they immediately assumed a fighting stance.
The leader threw a punch at Android 17.
Android 17 dodged the opponent's attack by bending over and then slapped the opponent away with a palm strike.
Immediately afterwards, Android 17 kicked him again, sending him flying off the stage.
"Whoosh!"
After falling off the ring, the contestant vanished from the spot in a flash.
"Mizer!" a teammate exclaimed.
"Whoosh!"
The next moment, Mizer appeared in the stands of Universe 10 in a flash.
"Mizer!" Rumsshi's eyes widened, and he shook his elephant trunk, looking utterly astonished.
Mizer: "..."
Mizer was still in a daze.
Who am I? Where am I?
I think I was kicked off!
"Would someone who fell out of the arena end up here?" Rumsshi paused, then looked at Mizer and asked in a deep voice.
Immediately, Rumsshi flew into a rage, wishing he could slap the wrestler to death. "You idiot! You're the first wrestler to fall off the ring, aren't you? The match has only just begun, and you're down in less than three seconds!"
"I finally got first place..." Mizer was in tears.
Rumsshi: "..."
