As time ticked by, the battle between the two grew fiercer and fiercer. Above the endless void of the World of Void, a series of earth-shaking booms and dazzling flashes suddenly erupted.

The intense explosions were like brilliant fireworks, instantly lighting up the entire dark space, leaving everyone dazzled and entranced.

And now, even the once incomparably sturdy arena could no longer withstand such terrifying impact. It kept cracking apart, with shattered stones flying everywhere.

Seeing this, Son Goku and the others could only hurriedly search for relatively safer corners to stand in for the moment, lest they get swept into the storm.

Suddenly, there came a thunderous boom.

Bang!!!!!

It turned out the two had clashed fists with all their strength. In that instant, wild winds howled up, forming a powerful cyclone.

The two were each forced back by the other's power, staggering dozens of steps backward before they managed to steady themselves.

"Haha! This is amazing!"

Luo Chuan threw back his head and laughed, excitement and frenzy flashing in his eyes. Before his words had even faded, his figure rapidly closed in on Jiren.

Facing the aggressive opponent coming right at him, Jiren's reaction was not slow in the slightest. He clenched his left fist and thrust it forward, the motion smooth and seamless. The punch was so fast it nearly reached Luo Chuan's chest in the blink of an eye.

However, Luo Chuan did not choose to dodge. Instead, he took this astonishingly powerful strike head-on. In that split second, another dull impact rang out—Bang! Jiren's fist smashed hard into Luo Chuan's arm.

In an instant, Luo Chuan felt surging power sweep over him like a wave. He involuntarily flew backward, his body carving a long straight line through the air and stirring up a sharp rush of wind.

Jiren raised his hand and fired energy blasts in rapid succession. These energy blasts exploded on contact.

A chain of explosions rang out through the air.

When the light and smoke from the explosions dispersed, Luo Chuan was not inside them.

Suddenly, Jiren turned and kicked backward. Luo Chuan's fist collided with the sole of his foot, unleashing an extremely powerful tremor. The rippling waves spread rapidly at a visible speed, and even the spectator stands began to shake.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

One white and one red stream of light constantly shuttled through the World of Void. Each collision erupted with a sound like the roar of an ancient beast, stirring the chaotic qi of the World of Void into utter fury.

Rumble!!!

With a tremendous boom, the two streams of light in the void crashed like two stars colliding, and a crushing shock wave spread outward in ring after ring.

The two landed on the arena, and the entire stage sank by several degrees.

Jiren let out a light breath, raising his energy as a red glow rose over his body. He brought out Full Power Mode.

"Holy crap! That's seriously insane. His combat power has reached 60 million rang."

In his eyes, the other party's combat power was still soaring. It did not stop until the value reached 86.4 million rang.

It was already close to the 11th Dimension.

Luo Chuan had to admit that the other party's strength was powerful. For some reason, he started getting excited.

"So this is why Saiyans love fighting, and why they're called a warrior race!"

Luo Chuan understood in his heart. He no longer had any unnecessary thoughts and raised his own energy as well, increasing his power to Limit Break. That was right, it was this form—and he had achieved it through training.

His strength instantly balanced out with Jiren's.

Jiren narrowed his eyes slightly. He truly had not expected the other party to catch up to him immediately. This might be the most troublesome opponent he had ever encountered, and also the strongest.

"Ha!"

Luo Chuan charged in again, instantly appearing behind Jiren. His right fist, wrapped in bright white aura, smashed toward Jiren's back like lightning.

Jiren had sensed it long ago and turned slightly to the side, avoiding most of the power behind the punch. However, Luo Chuan's fist wind still grazed his shoulder, bringing up a spray of blood.

Jiren frowned, turned, and delivered a side kick. The force carried by his leg cut toward Luo Chuan like a sharp blade.

Luo Chuan crossed his arms to defend, but he was still kicked back again and again, his whole body scraping a long trail across the ground.

After Luo Chuan steadied himself, he clenched both fists and rapidly threw a flurry of punches at Jiren. Fist shadows swept toward Jiren like a storm. Jiren refused to be outdone and also swung his fists to block. Every time he blocked Luo Chuan's fists, it was like a heavy hammer striking a great bell, producing dull yet resounding booms.

Their figures kept flashing and shifting amid the interweaving fist shadows and light, moving so quickly that the eye could barely keep up.

The two fought until heaven and earth seemed to darken within the void. The space of the World of Void began to twist, and as time passed, both of them showed injuries to varying degrees.

"Hey! Jiren, if we keep fighting like this, we'll only be wasting time, so it's about time we decide the winner, isn't it?"

Luo Chuan's ringing voice sounded out.

Jiren glanced at the stone pillar used for timing. There truly was not much time left.

"Fine!"

Jiren agreed. He also wanted to see just how strong this person could be, and whether he could surpass him.

Luo Chuan used Godly Power. Particulate matter suddenly appeared within his white aura; this was proof that he had used Godly Power. At the same time, his combat power entered the 11th Dimension.

Jiren's clothes directly burst apart, and he brought out Ultra Limit Form. His strength likewise entered the 11th Dimension.

Whoosh! Swish!

They charged at each other at the same time. Immediately afterward, the sound of limbs colliding rang out.

Luo Chuan and Jiren's punches and kicks were extremely sharp. The two had only one belief in their hearts: to crush the other. So every single move they made was utterly merciless.

"Super Kamehameha!"

"Super Crimson Wave!"

The bright white energy wave collided with the flame-red energy wave, instantly triggering an explosion that could have destroyed a universe outright. The light it produced illuminated the entire World of Void.

Under the impact of that tremendous energy, cracks began to appear in the surrounding space. Black spatial fissures split open like hideous wounds, swallowing all matter and energy around them.

Neither Luo Chuan nor Jiren showed the slightest intention of backing down. They kept pouring energy into their own waves, each trying to overwhelm the other, and both their bodies trembled faintly under the immense pressure.

As more and more energy poured in, the two beams swelled rapidly, and the shockwaves from their collision grew stronger and stronger. The arena had already been completely destroyed, reduced to chunks of rubble drifting through the void. As for Son Goku and the others, with nowhere left to stand, they had returned to the spectator stands.

More and more spatial fissures opened around them, and the entire World of Void seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

The Grand Minister glanced at the void and snapped his fingers, repairing the cracks. He had not expected the power unleashed by these two to be enough to tear open fissures in the World of Void. That was somewhat beyond his expectations.

In this fierce clash of energy, both of their injuries grew even worse.

A trickle of blood spilled from the corner of Luo Chuan's mouth, and his bright white aura dimmed somewhat. Jiren's condition was no better; his deep crimson energy had also begun to ripple unstably.

But neither of them intended to stop attacking. They both knew that the battle had reached its critical moment—whoever backed down first would be the one to face defeat.

"Dragon Fist!"

Luo Chuan suddenly shouted, and his aura surged in an instant before gathering entirely around his right fist. The muscles of his right arm bulged high, as though containing endless power, and a massive golden dragon flickered in and out of sight around his arm, letting out rolling roars.

Jiren sensed that powerful force, and a grave look flashed through his eyes. But he did not retreat. Instead, he focused even more intensely, preparing to meet Luo Chuan's strike.

Luo Chuan traced an arc through the air, then dove down toward Jiren. His right fist, carrying the phantom of the giant dragon, blasted viciously toward him.

Jiren unleashed all his strength. Deep crimson energy gathered completely over both his hands, and then he struck out.

Boom!

Another deafening explosion rang out as Luo Chuan's Dragon Fist collided with Jiren's fists. This clash produced energy fluctuations more powerful than any before it.

The entire World of Void shook under the force. The space that had originally been repaired cracked again like a mirror, and at that moment, the fissures spread wildly.

Under the impact of that immense power, Jiren's body began to move slowly backward, but he still stubbornly resisted Luo Chuan's attack.

Seeing this, Luo Chuan let out a furious roar and increased his power once more. The giant dragon around his right arm appeared even more clearly, releasing a roar that shook heaven and earth, then suddenly surged forward, breaking through Jiren's fists and slamming directly into his chest.

Jiren's body flew backward like a kite with its string cut.

Blood sprayed from his mouth, and his eyes went wide. He simply could not believe that he had lost to Universe 7 a second time. Luo Chuan, too, had spent a huge amount of stamina on that blow. His body swayed several times in the air before slowly landing on the ground.

As Jiren's body flew out of the arena, he reached out, trying to grab the edge, but his fingers only brushed past one corner of it. In the end, he still fell into the endless abyss.

"All fighters from Universe 11 have been eliminated. Score: 4.2. Eligible for revival."

After the Grand Minister finished announcing it, Grand Zeno 2 clenched his little hand one last time, and the universe disappeared.

Luo Chuan exhaled and did not feel very happy. On the contrary, he felt that he was still not strong enough, because in the final dozens of seconds of their clash, he had used a trace of Ultra Instinct's power. Only then had he defeated Jiren.

"Very well, winner of the great tournament, please state your wish."

The Grand Minister came to Luo Chuan's side, waved his hand, and seven planet-sized Dragon Balls hovered in the void.

The Grand Minister summoned Super Shenron in the language of the gods, and Luo Chuan was deeply shocked when he saw Super Shenron for the first time.

Without even thinking, Luo Chuan said directly that he wished for the universes whose scores had met the standard to be revived.

Because he had counted them. There were ten universes in total that had met the standard, which meant that from now on, there would no longer be any such thing as the 12 universes.

The Grand Minister relayed Luo Chuan's wish. Super Shenron's eyes glowed red, and after only a few seconds, he let out a roar.

His unimaginably enormous body turned into light and vanished, and the seven Dragon Balls also scattered separately into two universes.

After the wish was made, the second Tournament of Power came to an end.
