As Ki Sense enveloped the entire Null Realm.
Under Talot’s Divine Sense, he had already touched the barrier of the Null Realm.
It was indeed far more solid than he had imagined.
[Looks like this Tournament of Power is even more interesting than I thought. Not only the strength of the Null Realm, but also the participants…] Talot’s gaze swept around once more as he began judging the strength of the contestants from the other universes.
Talot’s actions naturally drew the attention of the contestants from the other universes very quickly, but they did not care much about it.
How could one tell the difference in strength with a single glance?
Only through a real battle could one know who was stronger and who was weaker.
Of course, for an existence at Talot’s level, he could see through their limits at a glance.
At this moment, the others from Universe 7 were still in shock.
Using such an independent miniature world that existed within chaos as the stage for their battle was far beyond their imagination.
Especially the spiral-shaped floating arena beneath their feet.
“Bottomless darkness… If you fall down there, you’ll definitely die, right?” Krillin stood at the edge of the arena and looked down below, immediately feeling his scalp go numb with fear.
“It really is unbelievable…” Tien Shinhan was also shaken by the bottomless darkness, speaking with a horrified expression.
Hearing their conversation, the silent Whis explained to everyone, “Since the tournament has not started yet, I’ll first explain the rules of the Tournament of Power to everyone… As long as you fall out of the arena, you will lose your qualification to compete. Likewise, killing an opponent will result in the same. In addition, there is a special force on the arena that will recreate the gravity of the planet each of you originally came from. And for the sake of fairness and impartiality, all contestants have been deprived of flight-type techniques, so please make sure to obey the rules…”
“Our ability to fly has been taken away? Doesn’t that mean Sky Hovering Art can’t be used?!” Goku said in surprise.
He instinctively tried to use Sky Hovering Art to fly, but no matter how he exerted himself, he could not use Sky Hovering Art at all. He remained rooted to the spot, unable to even float, let alone fly.
This situation left everyone extremely astonished, and they all tried it one after another.
Such a rule was simply inconceivable, sealing away abilities.
And if that was really the case, then wouldn’t it mean that once they were knocked off, there would be no way to come back?
“Wait! Since the tournament deprives us of our ability to fly, then what’s going on with those guys in the sky?” Vegeta asked in a deep voice.
Everyone followed Vegeta’s words and looked around. At this moment, above the arena in the Null Realm, quite a few contestants with wings were soaring through the chaos.
“As I just said, only the contestants’ flight techniques have been deprived! The wings on their backs are part of their bodies and are also innate abilities, just like walking on the ground… So they are not included among flight abilities acquired through training,” Whis explained.
“In other words, those guys have a huge advantage. Relying on their wings, they can avoid most battles and might even be able to remain until the very end,” Son Gohan remarked.
“No! You’re wrong about that, Gohan.” Piccolo suddenly spoke, then continued explaining, “In my opinion, having wings isn’t necessarily a good thing. Even though they can fly, everyone here is an expert. None of them will fall into a disadvantage just because of such a minor ability. On the contrary, because those people have wings and can fly, they’ll become the first group of contestants to be eliminated.”
One could only say that Piccolo was indeed Piccolo. His insight was as sharp as ever.
His analysis was perfectly logical.
In front of an absolute powerhouse, even being able to fly was useless. A single energy wave could lock onto you and blast you down.
“Piccolo is right. Everyone, what happens next will depend on your performance. Lord Beerus and I will head to the spectator area first.” After Whis finished speaking, he glanced at Talot, then slowly floated into the air and flew toward the spectator area.
“Perform well. Don’t disappoint me.” Beerus gave Goku and Vegeta a stern warning, then gave Talot a meaningful glance before setting off and following closely behind Whis.
Just after Whis and Beerus left, a shout came from not far away.
“Master!! Master Vegeta!!” The shout immediately drew everyone’s attention.
Looking over, they saw Cabba, the Saiyan from Universe 6, running toward Vegeta excitedly.
“Don’t shout things like that so casually. I’ve never acknowledged having a disciple like you.” Although Vegeta had never verbally acknowledged Cabba as his disciple, deep down he had already accepted it.
Those words left the approaching Cabba at a loss, and he could only scratch his head awkwardly.
It had to be said that this kid Cabba really was quite similar to Trunks.
Immediately afterward, two female Saiyans also walked over, drawing the attention of Vegeta and Goku.
With their eyesight, they could tell that these two female Saiyans had extremely powerful strength hidden within them.
“So they’re the ones who told you about the Super Saiyan transformation, Cabba?” Caulifla, who stood at the front, asked with a tsundere expression.
Behind Caulifla, the socially anxious Kale looked so unnatural, not saying a single word.
Goku and Vegeta also directly ignored Kale, but little did they know that this easily overlooked girl was an existence that appeared among the Saiyans only once every thousand years.
[The power of the Legendary Super Saiyan… Just how far can Kale of this timeline unleash that power?] Talot’s gaze fell upon Kale.
On a whim, he mobilized a small amount of his Great Ape • Legendary Super Saiyan power to test whether there would be any resonance.
The moment his Great Ape • Legendary Super Saiyan power emerged, Kale suddenly froze in place. Immediately afterward, she abruptly turned her head and looked at Talot.
Her heartbeat began to accelerate, and the Saiyan blood within her body resonated to a certain degree because of the Great Ape • Legendary Super Saiyan power emanating from Talot.
It seemed… as though she was about to lose control and erupt!
Seeing that Kale was already showing signs of erupting, Talot immediately stopped his little experiment and withdrew the Great Ape • Legendary Super Saiyan power back into his body.
As he withdrew his power, Kale returned to normal, but she still remembered the sensation from just now. She gave Talot a meaningful look, yet did not dare to speak.
Immediately afterward, Cabba began introducing Vegeta and Goku to Caulifla.
Hearing Cabba affectionately call him “Master” again and again made Vegeta’s eyelids twitch wildly. Although he maintained a stern expression, he was actually extremely happy side.
…
“Grand Priest, the contestants from Universe 11 have all arrived.”
At that moment, in an unnoticed corner of the arena, spatial ripples appeared.
The God of Destruction and Angel from Universe 11, along with the members of the Pride Troopers representing Universe 11 in battle, arrived at this moment.
The instant they arrived, an invisible yet powerful aura enveloped the area.
As a top-tier powerhouse, Talot immediately sensed the impact of this power and looked toward its source.
Goku belatedly sensed something as well. His gaze swept around before finally spotting the key figures.
“It’s them! Everyone, I’m going over to say hello first!” The moment Goku saw his old acquaintance Toppo, he immediately sprinted toward Universe 11’s area.
Vegeta also shifted his gaze at this moment, drawn toward the warriors of Universe 11.
Especially… one guy who looked absurdly muscular just from his physique alone!
“That guy… what a powerful aura…” Vegeta’s expression grew grave as he couldn’t help muttering under his breath.
“Tch~! The Saiyans of Universe 7 don’t seem all that impressive either. That aura is nothing special.” Caulifla teased.
She was clearly a newborn calf unafraid of a tiger, completely unaware of just how pitifully weak she herself was.
Because of her teasing, Vegeta was visibly irritated.
But since the tournament had not started yet, he had no way to teach her a lesson.
Watching Caulifla take Kale back toward their universe’s side, Vegeta’s expression shifted unpredictably.
Cabba, looking utterly embarrassed, apologized before leaving with them.
