On the Eve of the Martial Arts Tournament!
In the courtyard of Mount Paozu, life is peaceful and serene.
Ever since the Grand Priest announced the "Centennial Martial Arts Tournament" to the entire universe, the entire Twelve Universes and even the Sacred World of the Kais have been in an uproar.
In the past, World Martial Arts Tournament were a life-or-death game played by the Grand Zeno for amusement, with him even threatening to "erase the universe" at the drop of a hat.
But now, this "All-Universe Martial Arts Tournament" not only poses no danger to life, but the ultimate reward is actually—to go to Earth in the Universe 7 and receive guidance from that person!
In the minds of all the powerful beings and gods in the universe, the name "Qin Feng" has long surpassed that of the Grand Zeno, becoming the ultimate symbol of supreme martial arts.
To receive even a single word of guidance from Lord Qin Feng, or even just to be glanced at by him, would be an unparalleled honor that would bring glory to one's ancestors and benefit one for a lifetime!
In an instant, the powerful beings from all universes went mad.
Universe 1, Universe 2, Universe 6... all the God of Destruction and Supreme Kai personally took to the field, launching a massive open audition in their respective universes in an attempt to select the most outstanding genius warriors.
Universe 7, the World of the God of Destruction.
Beerus paced back and forth in the Whis's Temple, scratching his head and looking anxious.
"Damn it! Goku and Vegeta are still in seclusion in the Time-Space Training Room of the Zeno's Palace! If they mess up in the preliminary rounds of our Universe 7, where will I put my face?!"
Whis sat to the side, smiling as he sipped his black tea, and joked:
"Lord Beerus, please rest assured. Goku and Vegeta have received personal guidance from the Grand Priest at the Whis's Temple, and their strength is now vastly different from what it used to be. Besides, our Universe 7 also has Son Gohan, Piccolo, and the others; securing a spot in the tournament will be no problem at all."
Beerus glared at Whis and said through gritted teeth:
"What do you know! This World Martial Arts Tournament was approved by Lord Qin Feng! What if the warriors we selected perform terribly and offend Lord Qin Feng's eyes? What if he blames us? I must personally supervise the battle!"
With that, Beerus flashed and, pulling Whis along, traversed the void, landing on Earth.
At this moment, on Earth, at Mount Paozu.
Compared to the frenzied atmosphere outside, the courtyard on Mount Paozu still maintains its unique tranquility and comfort.
Qin Feng was lying on a bamboo chair under the pavilion, gently waving a palm-leaf fan in one hand and resting the other hand on the stone table.
Android 18 changed into a light pink fitted long dress and sat next to him, elegantly cutting chilled watermelon and feeding the sweetest part of the watermelon to Qin Feng.
"Honey, I heard that the World Martial Arts Tournament outside has caused a huge uproar," Android 18 said with a smile, a hint of curiosity in her beautiful eyes.
Qin Feng swallowed the cool, refreshing watermelon, hummed, and lazily waved his hand.
"Just a bunch of energetic brats. If it weren't for the Grand Priest coming to me with the Divine Essence, I wouldn't have bothered agreeing to this nonsense. I'll just give them a couple of pointers and send them on their way."
Android 18 chuckled softly, reached out to straighten Qin Feng's collar, and said gently:
"That's true, but everyone's here for you. If Goku and Vegeta win, you can't be too discouraging to their confidence."
Qin Feng took the opportunity to hold Android 18's soft little hand, gently kneaded it in his palm, and grinned:
"Don't worry, honey. For your sake, I'll go easy on them and leave them with their underwear."
As they were talking and laughing, a streak of purple light suddenly flashed across the space outside the courtyard.
Beerus and Whis landed in a flurry outside the courtyard gate.
Seeing Qin Feng and Android 18 being intimate in the pavilion, Beerus quickly composed himself, crouched low, and tiptoed forward, bowing respectfully.
"Lord Qin... Lord Qin Feng! Greetings to your wife!"
Qin Feng didn't even bother to lift his eyelids, and asked while fanning himself with a palm leaf fan:
"Beerus, why aren't you preparing for the auditions in your Universe 7? What are you doing here?"
Beerus chuckled awkwardly, quickly wiping the cold sweat from his brow, and said ingratiatingly:
"Reporting to Lord Qin Feng! This humble one has come precisely regarding the preliminary selection! This humble one would like to inquire about the rules and venue of the Qin Feng... Do you have any particular preferences? This humble one will certainly comply!"
Qin Feng yawned and waved his hand:
"Just stick to the old rules, no need for anything fancy. The venue is the Void Martial Arena outside the Zeno's Palace, it's big enough, saves us the hassle."
"Yes, yes, yes! I've got it!" Beerus nodded repeatedly, as if he had been granted a pardon.
Whis stepped forward with a smile and added:
"Lord Qin Feng, the Grand Priest just sent a message: the twelve strongest warriors selected from the twelve universes across the entire universe will gather at the Zeno's Palace in three days for the final battle. At that time... the Grand Zeno and the Grand Priest will await Lord Qin Feng and his wife to witness the battle."
Qin Feng held Android 18's hand, turned his head to look at his beautiful wife, and asked with a smile:
"Honey, how about we go join the fun in three days? Just to get some fresh air."
Android 18 leaned gently on Qin Feng's shoulder, her beautiful eyes sparkling, and she smiled sweetly.
"I'm fine with going anywhere as long as my husband is with me."
Qin Feng ruffled her blonde hair, then turned and waved to Beerus and Whis:
"Alright, I got it. I'll be bringing my wife over in three days. You guys get lost and don't bother my wife and me while we're sunbathing."
"Yes! This humble god takes his leave!"
Beerus breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed Whis, and instantly transformed into a streak of purple light, soaring into the sky, afraid that lingering even a second longer would displease this god of death.
The courtyard has regained its warmth and tranquility.
Sunlight streamed through the wooden lattice of the pavilion, falling on Qin Feng and Android 18.
Qin Feng held his wife tightly in his arms, inhaling the fragrance of her hair, a faint smile playing on his lips.
The All-Universe Martial Arts Tournament three days from now will be a supreme holy war that determines the fate of all the strong in the universe; but for Qin Feng, it will be nothing more than a wonderful circus to watch with his wife.
Absolute invincibility is achieved with such nonchalance...
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
In the void outside the Zeno's Palace, a vast training ground built from the Supreme Divine Stone floats amidst the boundless sea of stars.
Around the training ground, sacred light soared into the sky, and starlight that blotted out the sun transformed into a circular grandstand. God of Destruction, Supreme Kai, and Angel from all twelve universes were present, and the air was filled with a tense yet frenzied atmosphere.
At the highest point of the stands, two thrones draped with the highest divine brocade stood tall. The Grand Zeno and the Grand Priest were already waiting there, their attitudes extremely respectful.
Buzz--!
The space above the training ground suddenly rippled like water, and a silvery-white light slowly spread out.
The thousands of gods and top experts in the audience fell silent instantly, even holding their breath unconsciously, and all eyes turned to that beam of light.
As the light faded, Qin Feng, dressed in a neat black casual outfit, walked out unhurriedly, holding Android 18's little hand.
Today, Android 18 wore an exquisite light-colored long dress, her arm linked with Qin Feng's, and she appeared even more gentle and charming under the supreme divine light.
"Lord Qin Feng has arrived!!"
Beerus was the first to stand up abruptly, almost running to bow in greeting. Seeing this, the eleven God of Destruction and dozens of Supreme Kai behind him dared not remain seated any longer, and all stood up in unison, bowing respectfully in return.
"Greetings, Lord Qin Feng! Greetings, Your Majesty!"
The sound shook the void and resounded throughout the universe!
The Grand Zeno quickly slid down from the platform, a fawning smile on his face, and called out in his childish voice:
"Qin Feng, you're here!"
Qin Feng pulled Android 18 to the highest seat, sat down calmly, casually picked up the Supreme Divine Fruit beside him, peeled it, and put it into Android 18's mouth. Only then did he glance at the Grand Priest standing to the side and speak indifferently:
"Alright, enough with the formalities, let's get started."
The Grand Priest, feeling as if granted a pardon, quickly and respectfully replied:
"We humbly obey Lord Qin Feng's supreme decree!"
The Grand Priest turned around and gently tapped his Divine Authority Scepter in the void.
Buzz!
A burst of light erupted in the center of the training ground, and twelve powerful figures radiating astonishing battle aura instantly appeared out of thin air!
These twelve individuals are the strongest combatants selected from twelve universes after going through layers of brutal elimination!
A collective gasp, barely suppressed, erupted from the stands:
"Look! That's Jiren from Universe 11!"
"And Hit from Universe 6!"
"Son Goku and Vegeta from Universe 7 have also advanced!"
Jiren crossed his arms, his body surging with dark red, violent battle aura like a volcano, but when he looked up at Qin Feng on the high platform, a deep, undisguised awe flashed in the depths of his eyes.
After undergoing special training at the Zeno's Palace, his strength had already surpassed his previous limits. Yet, even so, facing that seemingly ordinary man on the high platform, he couldn't even muster the slightest thought of challenging him!
As for Son Goku and Vegeta, their eyes burned with intense passion.
Unable to contain his excitement, Son Goku waved and shouted loudly towards the platform:
"Mr. Qin Feng! Vegeta and I have made it to the finals! You'd better keep an eye on us!"
Vegeta snorted coldly, crossed his arms, and a proud smile curved his lips. Although he didn't speak, the desire in his eyes was undisguised.
Qin Feng leaned back in his chair, his arm around Android 18's shoulder, and waved to Son Goku and Vegeta with a smile:
"Come on, guys. Anyone who plays too badly gets a beating when we get back."
"Hehe! Don't worry!" Son Goku grinned wildly, and his body instantly exploded with violent golden light!
The Grand Priest's voice echoed throughout the training ground:
"The All-Universe Martial Arts Tournament, the Ultimate Melee, officially begins!"
Boom!
The moment the words fell, twelve incredibly powerful energy storms exploded across the training ground!
Jiren, Hit, Son Goku, Vegeta, and other top fighters turned into afterimages as they clashed in the center of the massive arena, unleashing a brutal melee that swept across the entire starry sky!
A violent shockwave and blinding light from the special attack filled the entire void, and the God of Destruction in the stands watched with wide eyes, marveling repeatedly.
Qin Feng leisurely held Android 18's soft little hand, quietly exchanging information about the battle on the field with his wife, while enjoying this rare grand and lively occasion.
Watching Son Goku and Vegeta fight fiercely on the field, Qin Feng had a calm smile on his lips.
At this absolutely invincible pinnacle, with a beautiful wife by your side, relatives and friends by your side, and occasionally watching a grand battle of the highest caliber in the entire universe, this leisurely and carefree daily life is the most pleasant and supreme enjoyment.
