Chapter 681: Martial Art Tournament
Planet Hongshan welcomed a new day.
In the western hemisphere, above the Kaimei Forest, a huge martial arts stadium with a length and width of more than 10,000m was built and at the center was an enormous arena with a length and width of more than 2000m.
And surrounding it in four directions, there were terraced viewing platforms built obliquely, which could accommodate tens of thousands of people at a time. Each viewing platform was protected with special transparent materials, which not only will not affect the audience’s view, but will also protect them from the storms caused by the fights below. Directly above the martial arts stadium, there is a four-dimensional display screen that can comprehensively capture and broadcast the scenes of fights.
It took only 6-7 days to build this martial art stadium. Xiaya couldn’t help but exclaim at how advanced the technology of the Feidaya people is.
This tournament is roughly the same as the World Martial Arts Tournament. It is divided into four stages: preliminaries, trial, promotion matches, and finals.
During the preliminaries, the giant arena with a length and width of 2,000 meters will be divided into 400 small arenas with an area of 100 square meters. All the contestants will compete in their respective areas in a specific order from drawing lots, and finally, the strongest 400 people will be determined. Then, a trial will be held where 400 people will duel, out of which the 25 strongest will be selected.
These twenty-five strongest will continue to partic.i.p.ate in the promotion matches.
They together with Xiling, Myers, and 18 will make up 28 people who will go through several rounds of promotion matches which will produce the seven strongest, who will enter the finals.
These seven people, together with Xiaya, will continue to the top eight in the final tournament.
Of course, during this tournament, Xiaya, Xiling, Myers, and 18 have some special privileges. For example, Xiling, Myers, and 18 can directly partic.i.p.ate in the promotion matches without going through the preliminaries and trial, while Xiaya has the privilege to directly partic.i.p.ate in the final tournament.
This is because they are powerful enough.
Others, whether it is Majin Buu or Xiang, have to honestly advance through competing.
Based on the arrangements, all the contestants who enter the top 400 can receive different rewards, and the final list will be chosen according to the situation and they will receive the corresponding medal of honor.
At this time, the sky was very crowded. As the gong sounded, the enormous martial art stadium became very lively. The 3rd Planet Hongshan’s Martial Arts Tournament was about to begin.
All the non-partic.i.p.ating spectators lined up according to the numbers a.s.signed by the AI, and the contestants were also preparing in the rest area. This time basically almost half of the Saiyans were partic.i.p.ating in the tournament. Maintaining order would be a very troublesome thing. So a lot of the work behind the scenes is left to Feidaya people and intelligent machines.
On a higher viewing platform, the old Supreme Kai and East Supreme Kai had also arrived. When they saw the dense crowd below and sensed the imposing rainbow-like aura emanating from the crowd, the faces of the old Supreme Kai and East Supreme Kai slightly became pale.
Although most of these Saiyans were not as powerful as a Supreme Kai, there were so many people that when they gathered together, the aura that emanated out was something that even Supreme Kai dared not look down on.
“So terrifying, such a powerful race has developed in the mortal world. It is indeed the race of G.o.d of Destruction-sama.” Old Supreme Kai’s slightly closed eyes were open as lips opened and closed. When he learned that G.o.d of Destruction from Universe 10 was originally a resident of Universe 7, he felt a little pride in his heart.
Immediately, he became very calm, because this means that Universe 7 has two experts of G.o.d of Destruction level, its strength has definitely risen by a lot. For the old Supreme Kai, who knows the secrets of the universe very well, the weight of this rea.s.surance is too much.
Then he carefully turned to look at Xiaya’s wives and with his keen sight, he could already see their uniqueness and couldn’t help but gulp: “These ladies, each of them is very terrifying. They are only one step away from Divine Realm, and even Majin Buu is not their match at all.”
“Ancestor, Saiyan’s turns out to be so powerful, I didn’t know about it before at all.” East Supreme Kai swallowed and said.
“Sigh, as expected of the race that gave birth to the G.o.d of Destruction-sama. You can’t provoke them, okay?” Old Supreme Kai whispered.
Xiaya looked at the old Supreme Kai and East Supreme Kai in amus.e.m.e.nt and said, “Please take your seats both of you, the tournament will start soon.”
“There is no need to be polite, G.o.d of Destruction-sama, we can do it ourselves.” They didn’t dare to put on airs in front of Xiaya and quickly sat down in their seats humbly.
Upon seeing this, Xiaya also sat down on the main seat with Xiling and Myers sitting on both sides respectively. Kusu was sitting on a floating cus.h.i.+on by herself as she lightly moved above the arena, and watched the situation below. 18 sat next to Xiling and looked at the arena below with her azure blue eyes, and quickly spotted Goku and the others.
And said in surprise: “Goku and Vegeta are also here?”
Xiaya smiled: “Yes, they also came to partic.i.p.ate in the tournament. Originally, 16 and 17 were also invited, but because they have been busy on the farm in recent days, they did not come.”
18 pouted and pursed her rosy lips: “If they don’t want to come, forget it.”
“By the way, where is Meifei, hasn’t she come back yet?”
“She’s still playing at Majin Buu’s place!” Xiang replied. Since meeting Majin Buu, the two of them seem to have become kindred spirits, and they often hang out at various places on Planet Hongshan together. In addition, they are both lawless. If Xiaya hadn’t been keeping them under control, Planet Hongshan would have long been completely turned upside down by them.
“That brat, she is always causing trouble. I’m going to look for them. Majin Buu is also going to partic.i.p.ate in the tournament.”
Saying that, Xiaya used Instant Transmission and disappeared, and soon arrived near Majin Buu’s residence.
Sensing for Meifei and Majin Buu’s Ki, he found them in a wasteland that was razed to the ground. At this time, Majin Buu’s home had been transformed into a strange shape, and there were various large and small sculptures scattered beside it. They all had the appearance of Majin Buu’s round head.
What made him especially speechless was that at one end of the open s.p.a.ce, an enormous statue of Majin Buu which was more than 50 meters tall was erected. When he found Meifei, she was sculpting with the clay that had been magically processed by Majin Buu.
“You two, do you not remember that today is the day when the martial art tournament is going to be held?” Xiaya scolded them as soon as he appeared.
“Dad!” Meifei’s eyes lit up.
“Hehe, you’re here.” Majin Buu narrowed his eyes and blew out bubbles.
Xiaya glanced at them and said: “Majin Buu, you are very talented, and you have inherited all your previous powers, so you should train well. Meifei, you too, when will you break through to Super Saiyan 3. Even though you are a Legendary Super Saiyan, Xiang has almost surpa.s.sed you.”
“Hehe, I understand. After the tournament is over, I will head outside to train with Buu.” Meifei winked at Xiaya.
Smiling helplessly, Xiaya realized that ever since these two clowns got together, they haven’t done anything serious. So he waved his hand and brought Majin Buu and Meifei to the venue.
…
“Majin Buu!!”
Seeing Majin Buu appear, East Supreme Kai called out reflexively, but immediately remembered that the current Buu was no longer the Evil Buu from before, so he calmed down and gave a nod to Kusu.
Kusu controlled the cus.h.i.+on and flew to the center of the enormous venue, and then a sharp and clear sound rang out throughout the venue.
“Hmph! Planet Hongshan’s Martial Art Tournament will now commence. I am the host and head referee Kusu. Now I will announce the rules of the tournament…” In addition to the materials with healing effects like Senzu Beans and Tree of Might’s fruits which are not allowed to be used in the tournament, the use of outside powers is also prohibited. Of course, the powers of the Saiyan G.o.d which require fusion cannot be used.
“During the tournament, anyone who deliberately maliciously hurts their opponent who has gone out of bounds, falls unconscious, or admits defeat will be eliminated. Now, the AI will draw lots for all the contestants.”
As Kusu slowly announced the rules of the tournament, magical energy swept out and the enormous arena began to transform before dividing into four hundred 100 square meter areas.
All contestants were allocated their numbers.
Goku pressed the electronic watch on his wrist and it displayed the code “81 No. 24611”, indicating that his arena is 81 and his contestant number is 24611.
“What’s your number, Vegeta?”
“312 No. 84023!” Vegeta looked at the number on his wrist and read it out.
Goku said: “It seems that we won’t be encountering each other in a short time.”
“Hmph, then you should hope that you won’t get eliminated before you encounter me.” Glancing at Goku from the corners of his eyes, Vegeta said coolly, turned around, and walked towards the arena he was allocated.
“I won’t lose easily,” Goku muttered and a strong fighting spirit surged out of him. Then, he pa.s.sed through the crowd, just in time to see the fat pink-colored Majin Buu, “It seems I won’t meet him soon. I can’t wait to fight him.”
Frankly speaking, the early stage matches of preliminaries were all pre-arranged by Xiaya. The strength of each contestant was stored in the central database and has been archived in advance so that Bardock, Zangya, Goku, and others wouldn’t encounter each other to preserve the seeded contestants and let them meet in the final matches.
