Hearing such a cruel result, Wang Shen was dumbfounded, unable to believe it.

He immediately asked:

"How could this be! Did something go wrong during the ritual?"

Could it be because the rules of the two universes are different?

That shouldn't be.

Universe 7 and Universe 6 are twin universes; the rules should be similar.

King Sadala slowly shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"I don't know. I followed the instructions from the ruins exactly."

"The only difference is that since that day, I have never exited the Super Saiyan God form; I have maintained it until now, constantly upholding this immense power."

"What!?"

Hearing this, Wang Shen suddenly looked up at King Sadala's crimson eyes, his face full of surprise and shock.

There was even a hint of jealousy mixed in.

He had assumed that King Sadala must have undergone the same arduous and long-term training as he had.

Only by relying on his own talent could he have maintained Super Saiyan God as his base state.

He never expected that he was cheating again!

Damn it, if you keep playing like this, I'm really going to report you!

Whether still immersed in sorrow or simply accustomed to it, King Sadala did not notice Wang Shen's indignant emotions.

He just nodded calmly.

This further irritated Wang Shen's fragile, unbalanced heart.

Wang Shen gritted his teeth, but looking at the head-bowed, sorrowful King Sadala, he suddenly remembered the five Saiyans who had turned into withered husks.

That was a sign of the complete loss of life energy.

Thinking of this, Wang Shen suddenly understood the reason for it all.

He looked at the sorrowful King Sadala, pursed his lips, and finally decided to tell him.

"I think what happened later might be because, under the immense pressure of the monster invasion, they all chose to pass their entire life energy to you so that you would have enough power to destroy all the monsters."

"That is why this pure, massive life energy is what supported you in firmly establishing yourself in the realm of Super Saiyan God."

After listening, King Sadala suddenly realized the truth, his majestic and stern face instantly stiffening.

Shock, horror, and deep regret appeared simultaneously in his trembling crimson eyes.

"Was that the reason?"

"Bakbu, Herla, Ashita, Sifuda, Bote."

King Sadala slowly spat out the names of these five people one by one, his heavy voice carrying a distinct tremor.

"You truly sacrificed yourselves for Planet Sadala."

After a long while, King Sadala slowly exhaled a breath of gloom, opened his eyes, and said solemnly:

"I originally thought that transforming into a Super Saiyan God required the lives of five righteous and kind-hearted Saiyans as the price, which is why I didn't dare to make it public."

"But now, I have decided to popularize the method of transforming into a Super Saiyan God throughout Planet Sadala."

"I will make Planet Sadala stronger and stronger to honor the spirits of Bakbu and the others!"

King Sadala's expression was resolute, and a raging fire seemed to be rekindled in his trembling pupils.

A single spark can start a prairie fire.

When that time comes, the prestige of Planet Sadala will surely spread throughout the entire universe!

Seeing King Sadala looking as if he had reached an epiphany and was suddenly filled with grand ambitions, Wang Shen was stunned at first, then, as if thinking of something, he hurriedly tried to dissuade him.

"Wait a moment, King Sadala, I don't think this matter needs to be so rushed."

"Hmm?"

King Sadala was puzzled.

Wang Shen paused, organized his thoughts, and explained:

"King Sadala, you and I both know how powerful the strength of a Super Saiyan God is; calling it world-destroying is the simplest way to describe it."

"If ordinary Saiyans, whose power is still weak and whose martial arts philosophy is not yet mature, were to suddenly master such immense power, I fear it would not be a good thing."

"You also know that Super Saiyan God is not the end for a Saiyan; there is still a very long road ahead."

"If those Saiyans lose themselves because of temporary power, stop striving for progress, and subsequently become arrogant and twisted, playing with the lives of the weak and innocent, then how would they be any different from the monsters?"

Hearing Karotis's analysis, King Sadala pulled himself back from his impulsive state.

He realized the gravity of these potential consequences.

Although not every Saiyan would act this way.

He knew for certain that a significant number of Saiyans would end up in the situations Karotis described.

Seeing that King Sadala had taken his advice to heart, Wang Shen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It was fortunate that King Sadala was an enlightened ruler who listened to counsel.

Otherwise, by obstructing his grand ambition of hegemony, he would surely have incurred his resentment.

The reason Wang Shen stopped King Sadala from popularizing the Super Saiyan God transformation was twofold.

The arguments he used to persuade King Sadala were one aspect.

But his primary concern was provoking Champa, the God of Destruction of Universe 6.

Among the Saiyans, there was no shortage of righteous yet ambitious individuals.

As a former Saiyan from Planet Vegeta, Wang Shen knew clearly that Saiyans who suddenly gained immense power were highly likely to use that strength to invade and destroy other planets.

Then, they would style themselves as the kings of the universe.

Stealing the God of Destruction's job would disrupt the balance of the universe.

While an increase in the overall strength of Universe 6 was a good thing, the God of Destruction was temperamental and unpredictable.

Who knew if he would feel offended by this and take action against Planet Sadala?

Then, he would discover the involvement of an outsider like himself.

Would there be any good outcome for him then?

Better to seek no merit than to invite disaster.

Wang Shen smiled and said:

"Therefore, power gained through one's own cultivation is the most appropriate; that is true strength."

Glancing at King Sadala, Wang Shen added with a chuckle:

"Look, the Super Saiyan God you obtained through a ritual isn't as strong as the Super Saiyan 3 I achieved step by step through my own training, is it?"

Watching Karotis's smug expression, the corners of King Sadala's mouth twitched violently.

The goodwill he had just felt toward him vanished completely.

If he weren't unable to beat him and afraid of losing face in front of the other Saiyans, he would have dragged Karotis into another three hundred rounds of combat without hesitation.

However...

"Hmm, what you say also makes sense."

As a king, he still maintained a facade of being reasonable.

"Then we shall wait a while and strengthen their base combat power."

"After that, I will personally select a group of mature and kind-hearted Saiyans to teach them the method for the Super Saiyan God transformation."

"As expected of King Sadala, your consideration for matters is truly thorough."

Wang Shen nodded, deeply agreeing.

Not bad.

Once I leave Universe 6, you can do whatever you want.

King Sadala grumbled inwardly.

Now he's 'King Sadala' again.

But he had finally seen Karotis for who he was.

Serious on the surface, but secretly mischievous and brazen at heart.

"Karotis, there is one more thing..."

Afterward, King Sadala kept Wang Shen talking for a long time before finally letting him leave.

There was no helping it; he had been lonely at this level of power for too long.

Having finally encountered a powerhouse of his own caliber, it was only because King Sadala was understanding and polite that they hadn't talked through the entire night.

Aha!

Wang Shen walked quickly out of the Royal Palace, looked at the setting sun, stretched his arms wide, and let out a yawn.

"Finally out! King Sadala is just too talkative!"

"It's almost nightfall, and King Sadala didn't even offer me a grand, sumptuous dinner. He's not very sensible, is he!"

Just as Wang Shen was about to take flight.

A cry of surprise suddenly came from not far away.

"Karotis!"

A young girl wearing a pink tube top, exposing a large expanse of skin, came running over in a hurry.

"You're finally out! I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Eh, Caulifla, what are you waiting for me for?"

"Karotis, I want to be your apprentice!"
