“Hey! Lin Chen! The other side is trying to test your strength!” Beerus looked towards Lin Chen, reminding him.
He could guess Belmod’s intentions even with his eyes closed.
So Beerus really hoped Lin Chen would refuse and save the match for the official competition later.
After all, Lin Chen was the trump card of their Universe 7.
However, Lin Chen just smiled and said, “Of course, I accept the challenge!”
“Ah…” Beerus sighed, cursing these Saiyans for being brainless fools in his heart.
But Beerus didn’t know that Lin Chen was thinking about how his research on Super Saiyan 5 had hit a bottleneck, and now it was just the right time to use Toppo as a living experiment.
Hearing Lin Chen’s immediate acceptance, Beerus could only reluctantly accept it.
After all, he couldn’t sway Lin Chen at the moment.
“Now that Mr. Lin Chen has agreed to the challenge from Universe 11’s Toppo, please take the stage!” Grand Priest said with a pleasant smile, his hands moving simultaneously.
A force was applied to the arena.
In the next moment, the arena, which had been destroyed, was now as good as new, and it had been specially reinforced by Grand Priest.
“Universe 11’s Toppo! Please give me your guidance” Toppo bowed.
Lin Chen smiled, looked at Toppo, and said directly, “Mr. Toppo, I heard you are a God of Destruction candidate? Then please use the power of God of Destruction directly.”
“Hmm?” Toppo frowned and said, “Whether to use it or not, I will decide based on the situation.”
“Is that so? We will be performing for Zeno. If you were to be instantly defeated, Zeno wouldn’t be pleased.”
“Instantly defeated?” Toppo’s beard trembled, and he said sharply, “Mr. Lin Chen, Toppo has been respectful to you, so I ask you to respect Toppo as well.”
“Don’t believe me? Then let me show you.”
After Lin Chen finished speaking, he clenched his fists, and directly transformed into Super Saiyan 4.
Although Lin Chen didn’t really think much of Toppo, it must be said that he has some strength, especially under the same normal state, this guy’s power was terrifying!
Basically, Universe 11 had no race which could transform; their normal state was their final form, and they usually had tens of billions of power level in their normal state.
Toppo was the strongest under Jiren in Universe 11, and his normal state power was already over 20 billion. Without transforming, he was really not easy to deal with.
“Hmm? Another different transformation? But it’s so strong!”
Seeing Lin Chen’s transformation, Toppo also turned serious, considering whether he should transform. Because it seemed like his opponent’s strength was far above his.
Meanwhile, on the spectator stands, Beerus and the others looked puzzled.
“Huh? What form is that? Hey, Goku! How come we haven’t seen this transformation of Lin Chen before?”
“Beerus-sama, that’s the Super Saiyan 4 form! It’s the next stage after Super Saiyan 3,” Goku explained.
“That’s strange. Why would His Majesty use Super Saiyan 4 instead of Super Saiyan God?” Vegeta couldn’t understand.
In the past, except for dealing with Android 21 and Zamasu, when for various reasons he couldn’t transform into Super Saiyan God, Lin Chen had always used the Black God and Silver-Grey form to confront powerful enemies. How come he suddenly started with Super Saiyan 4 this time?
“Wow! Lin Chen looks so fierce!”
“Another new transformation! It was definitely the right decision to let Lin Chen fight!”
The two Zenos laughed joyfully.
Amid their laughter, Toppo began his attack.
Although Lin Chen asked him to use the power of God of Destruction, Toppo still intended to test his opponent’s strength first.
As the powerful fist came straight towards Lin Chen, he shook his head and reached out his hand, waving his fist towards Toppo.
“Get down!”
Boom!
A blast wave rushed directly towards Toppo.
Although he couldn’t see it, Toppo still felt the pressure of the incoming fist and immediately changed his stance to block.
However, immediately after, with a deafening roar, Toppo’s body was sent flying backward.
With just one punch, Lin Chen determined the outcome against Toppo.
During this period of training, Lin Chen had been immersed in the Great Ape form. Although he hadn’t successfully mastered the realm above Super Saiyan 4, it had significantly improved his strength.
So under this punch, Toppo didn’t even have time to react before his body flew off the arena and landed on the ground.
Although he didn’t suffer much damage, according to the rules, Toppo had already lost the match.
As Toppo got up from the ground, he was completely bewildered.
Universe 11’s God of Destruction Belmod also wore a look of dissatisfaction.
“That fool! I told him to test out his strength! How can he not withstand a single punch?”
“Belmod-sama, it’s not that Toppo isn’t capable, it’s just that this person’s power increased significantly in that split second just now, catching Toppo off guard,” revealed Universe 11’s Angel Marcarita.
Indeed, just as they started, Lin Chen had used Super Kaio-ken, instantly doubling his Power Level.
Toppo made a miscalculation and fell for it.
Even so, the outcome of the match was already out.
Grand Priest announced loudly, “The match is over, Universe 7’s Lin Chen wins!”
However, this result immediately sparked discontent.
“Huh? It’s over so soon?”
“It just started!”
“This guy called Toppo fights so poorly!”
“So poorly! Erase him!”
“Yes! Erase him!”
Upon hearing the words of the two Zenos, Toppo’s face instantly turned pale, and he knelt on the ground, saying, “Zeno-sama! I was careless just now! Please give me another chance, Zeno-sama! This time, I will definitely use all my strength!”
Belmod also quickly added, “Zeno-sama, indeed, it was Toppo’s momentary carelessness. He can perform better.”
The two Zenos frowned upon hearing this, their small hands scratching their heads as they said, “Give him another chance?”
“Give him one? It wasn’t satisfying enough just now.”
“Not satisfying enough.”
“Since both Zeno-sama say so, then let’s give him another chance, shall we?” Grand Priest also spoke up for Toppo.
“Mr. Lin Chen, what do you think?”
“No! Don’t agree!” Beerus shouted from the side.
Grand Priest glared at him, and Beerus immediately shrank back, only able to pray in his heart.
Unfortunately, Lin Chen waved his hand and said, “Sure.”
“What an idiot!” Beerus immediately looked speechless.
But Goku and the others understood Lin Chen’s choice very well. After all, if it were them, they would also be willing to fight a little longer and see the strength of the other universes’ fighters.
“In that case, Toppo is allowed to return to the arena and continue the match,” Grand Priest announced.
“Thank you, Zeno-sama! Thank you, Grand Priest! Thank you… Mr. Lin Chen!” Toppo deeply bowed to everyone, then, with a flushed face, he reluctantly returned to the arena.
“Mr. Lin Chen, thank you for just now. I was indeed careless, but this time, I will use all my strength!”
