"It would've been better if we'd told that guy Zamasu sooner." Rumsshi sighed.
"You can change the landscape, but not human nature," Kusu said.
Rumsshi: "..."
"Whoosh!"
Using a knife-hand to hook Ribrian's body, Zamasu carried her to the edge of the arena and suddenly flung her away.
"Pfft!"
Zamasu's knife-hand sent Ribrian flying.
Ribrian shot straight out of the arena.
"Whoosh!"
The next moment, Ribrian's figure flickered and vanished, reappearing in the stands for Universe 2.
Although Ribrian's body had been pierced, the wound hadn't reached any vital organs.
As a Supreme Kai, it was easy enough for her to do something like that.
Still, Ribrian was in so much pain that her cries were downright haunting.
"Sour, treat her immediately," Heles ordered.
"Of course, Lady Heles." Sour nodded gently. A healing flame shimmered from the Staff in his hand and quickly enveloped Ribrian.
In the blink of an eye, Ribrian's injuries had completely healed.
"Thank you... Thank you..." Ribrian hurriedly expressed her gratitude.
Sour smiled in response and said nothing more.
Then Ribrian looked toward Zamasu on the arena, fear in her eyes.
That fight had left her traumatized.
Looks like my beauty can't solve everything.
That guy must be a eunuch.
There's no way he wouldn't have been swayed by my beauty otherwise.
"Zamasu of Universe 10 is the winner of the fourth match," the Grand Priest announced with a smile. "Please go to Lu Fan and collect a can of Cola."
"Yes!" Zamasu bowed.
"Whoosh!"
Zamasu flew over to Lu Fan.
Lu Fan lifted his little hand, and a can of Cola appeared in it.
He held the Cola out to Zamasu.
"Thank you." Zamasu politely accepted it with both hands.
Zamasu was just about to open it.
"Wait a moment," Lu Fan said.
Zamasu paused.
"I almost forgot to mention... Cola tastes better if you shake it before drinking," Lu Fan said.
"Really? Thank you." Zamasu nodded, then shook the can vigorously.
Champa: "..."
Vados: "..."
The two couldn't help edging away from Zamasu.
Zamasu opened the can.
"Pfft!"
The carbon dioxide burst out, spraying him right in the face.
Caught completely off guard, Zamasu thought he'd been ambushed. Energy flashed rapidly in his hand.
"Crack!"
The Cola in Zamasu's hand was instantly reduced to ash by his flames.
"What a waste!" Beerus bared his teeth, heartbroken.
He'd just destroyed such a delicious can of Cola!
"You... What do you mean by this? Why are you messing with me?" Zamasu quickly recovered and glared coldly at Lu Fan.
"I'm not messing with you. Cola just tastes better this way." Lu Fan smiled lightly.
"Crack!"
Lu Fan conjured another can of Cola.
He shook it vigorously.
"Lord Champa." Lu Fan casually tossed the can to Champa.
Champa was slightly taken aback.
"Have a drink and see for yourself. This guy says I'm messing with him," Lu Fan said.
"Crack!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Champa immediately opened the can.
The next moment, Champa swiftly pressed the can's opening to his mouth.
"Glug, glug, glug..."
Champa swallowed it in one go.
"Wow... That's refreshing." Champa patted his belly and let out a burp of carbon dioxide.
"Get it now? This is how you're supposed to drink it." Lu Fan smiled.
Zamasu: "..."
Zamasu didn't know what to say.
"Zamasu, you need to train your mind. Even if you win this tournament, you're not suited to become a God of Destruction like this." Lu Fan sighed, patting Zamasu on the shoulder. "I know you're a Supreme Kai, and you might even become the next Supreme Kai. But if you keep going with your current mindset, you can forget about ever taking the position."
Zamasu frowned, starting to get angry.
But in the end, he was still wary of Lu Fan's true identity.
This kid was personally chosen by the Grand Priest.
I'd better not provoke him.
Having thought it over, Zamasu nodded slightly.
"I'll remember that. Thank you for the guidance, Mr. Lu Fan." Zamasu bowed.
"Go on, off you go." Lu Fan waved him away.
The Grand Priest once again looked silently at Lu Fan.
Although the kid wasn't very old, his inner discipline was absolutely superior to everyone present...
In fact, his inner discipline surpassed that of several Gods of Destruction.
This was getting more and more interesting.
Zamasu returned to the stands for Universe 10.
Rumsshi said nothing more.
Rumsshi felt that Zamasu was already out of the running.
Even if he won the whole tournament, he probably wouldn't be chosen as a God of Destruction.
A God of Destruction could disregard the lives of others.
But a God of Destruction wouldn't be that cruel.
In the match just now, if you'd kicked that beautiful woman out of the arena, no one would've said a thing.
But torturing her like that was wrong.
"Lord Rumsshi, it seems the contestants from Universe 2 aren't anything special," Zamasu said with a smile.
"Whatever you say," Rumsshi replied coolly.
Zamasu didn't think much of it. His face was full of anticipation.
There are three contestants left. As long as I fight well, I'll definitely beat them.
"That concludes the first round," the Grand Priest announced with a smile as he hovered in the air. "The contestants advancing to the semifinals are Hit from Universe 6, Toppo from Universe 11, Majin Buu from Universe 7, and Zamasu from Universe 10. We'll proceed to the semifinals right away. First up are Hit from Universe 6 and Toppo from Universe 11. Please step forward for your match."
"Hit, be careful. That guy is a candidate for God of Destruction," Champa cautioned him.
"Got it." Hit nodded.
"Toppo, I hear your opponent can control time and stop it briefly. Don't let your guard down!" Belmod cautioned him as well.
"Yes, Lord Belmod," Toppo replied.
The two flew up onto the arena.
"Begin!" the Grand Priest announced.
Hit and Toppo wasted no time exchanging words. They immediately launched into a fierce clash.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Both of them kept raising their energy, unleashing attack after attack against each other.
