Selari Admits Defeat, Top 4 Advancement Tournament List is Out! "How could this be?!"
The enormous difference in strength made Selari's heart clench.
She couldn't even touch her opponent, so how could she possibly defeat him?
Just as Selari was shocked, Raditz raised his hand and released a Ki Blast Cannon, ruthlessly blasting Selari back.
A deafening *'BOOM~!!!!'*
Engulfed by the powerful aura, Selari retreated rapidly, barely stopping at the edge of the arena.
"That was close!" Selari gasped, marveling repeatedly.
The look in her eyes as she looked at Raditz became very complicated. The difference in strength was obvious. Both were in the Super Saiyan First Stage state, but Raditz's strength was clearly far greater than her own.
In this situation, she could only transform into Super Saiyan Second Grade, otherwise she wouldn't even have the qualifications to fight.
Crackling~!!!!
Around Selari's body, streaks of blue-white lightning crackled.
Her golden, angry hair transformed into golden, upright spikes, her aura soared, and her Battle Power underwent a qualitative change.
Super Saiyan Second Grade Peak!
At this moment, Selari's battle power had soared to a terrifying level, reaching a full 18 billion, even stronger than Raditz by a bit! "Transformed into Super Saiyan Second Grade, huh? Now this is what I call a fight!" After seeing Selari show her true skills, Raditz lowered his hands, his aura surged, and his Super Saiyan Full Power state was unleashed.
Using Super One to fight Super Saiyan 2!
The powerful aura impacted all directions, and the immense pressure poured down on Selari.
Faced with Raditz's aura, Selari showed no weakness, erupting with all her power to resist.
This time, Selari had the upper hand in the aura clash.
"It's not like before now, be careful, Raditz!!" With a shout, Selari took the initiative to attack.
Her figure flickered, she rushed out rapidly, and her right fist, carrying the force of ten thousand jun, slammed out powerfully.
Seeing this, Raditz raised his arms to block.
A loud *'BANG!!!'*
Selari's unreserved punch knocked Raditz back in one breath.
Compared to her previous attacks that couldn't hit Raditz, the destructive power of this attack was greatly improved.
With one successful strike, Selari launched a continuous barrage of attacks, the crushing and overwhelming fist and foot offensives pouring down on Raditz like a storm.
Faced with Selari's continuous full-force attacks, Raditz focused his mind and defended with all his attention.
In just a few seconds, the two had exchanged dozens or hundreds of moves, and Raditz had completely adapted to Selari's attack patterns.
"Now!" Seizing the opportunity, Raditz unleashed a full-force blow straight at Selari's face.
At this moment, time seemed to stand still, but the corners of Selari's mouth curled up, revealing a triumphant smile.
"You fell for it, Raditz." As soon as she finished speaking, Selari turned into an afterimage and disappeared from the spot.
Raditz's fist missed, and Selari appeared silently behind Raditz in that instant.
[Not good!] Sensing the chill coming from behind, Raditz's expression changed, followed by an irresistible force sweeping through his body, overturning him and sending him into the sky.
Pressing the attack, Selari gathered power in her hands, wanting to take this opportunity to defeat Raditz in one fell swoop.
"Super Purple Light Cannon!" Selari shouted, and the super special move burst out from her palms, carrying the ultimate destructive power to annihilate everything, and blasted towards Raditz.
Soaring into the sky, Raditz felt the sense of crisis behind him. After regaining control of his body, he quickly turned around and crossed his arms to form a defense.
*'Rumble~~!!'* The energy exploded, and scorching flames covered the sky.
Thick smoke filled the area, and Raditz was swallowed by the explosion, his condition unknown.
But in the next second, at the center of the explosion, an unparalleled aura storm expanded, dissipating all the flames and smoke.
Raditz's figure was once again reflected in everyone's eyes.
Having witnessed this scene with her own eyes, Selari's pupils shrank violently.
"What?!" Selari was astonished. Raditz had taken her full-power Super Purple Light Cannon head-on and emerged unscathed?!
In mid-air.
"That was close! Good thing I managed to activate the Super Saiyan Second Grade Energy Pool in time, or that blast would have taken a layer of skin off me," Raditz exclaimed, relieved, wiping the sweat from his brow.
Then, he seemed to make up his mind.
Since Selari had already used the Super Saiyan Second Grade transformation, he might as well use an even higher-level transformation.
Defeating her with a transformation of equal level would show her the respect she deserved!
"Then, I'll fight you using Super Saiyan Second Grade as well!" Raditz narrowed his eyes slightly. The golden aura around his body pulsed, and the dense golden flames expanded continuously, impacting the surroundings like a storm.
His long, golden, skyward-pointing hair stood even more erect due to the rapid flow of golden energy.
Blue-white arcs of electricity crackled around him, enveloping his entire body, incredibly dazzling and eye-catching.
A powerful aura of pressure erupted continuously.
Vast and boundless power expanded rapidly, washing over the entire world.
Super Saiyan Second Grade Peak!
With a two-hundred-fold increase in Battle Power from his Base Form, Raditz's Battle Power had now ballooned to 44 billion!
The Battle Power exceeding 40 billion points coursed through Raditz's entire body.
The feeling of this power filling him made Raditz feel incredibly happy, a sensation beyond words.
It had been a long time since he had felt like this.
At this moment, he was like an insurmountable mountain in front of Selari.
His formidable Battle Power left Selari far, far behind.
Golden light filled the area, and everyone's gaze was deeply drawn to Raditz's invincible form.
On the arena, Selari gazed at Raditz in the sky, her expression changing constantly, before a wry smile appeared on her face.
At this moment, she completely understood the difference in strength between herself and Raditz.
Both in Super Saiyan Second Grade, Raditz was more than twice as strong as her! She still had the Super Kaio-ken technique she hadn't used, but Selari knew very well that in this situation, the Super Kaio-ken would be meaningless.
Even if the Super Kaio-ken could increase her Battle Power by more than two times, so what?
Raditz could also use that technique!
Moreover, no one could guarantee that Super Saiyan Second Grade was Raditz's limit.
She had a feeling that Raditz's strength was definitely more than what they were seeing.
Perhaps... he had already surpassed Super Saiyan Second Grade, they just didn't know it.
"Referee... I forfeit," Selari sighed, then canceled her Super Saiyan Second Grade Peak transformation, the fighting spirit in her eyes completely dissipating.
Continuing to fight would be meaningless.
Rather than humiliating herself, it was better to admit defeat proactively.
At this time, the Blonde Referee outside the arena was visibly stunned. He had thought the fierce battle would continue and had prepared to be blasted to death by the aftershocks, but Selari had directly forfeited.
"She's giving up already?" Raditz said, slightly surprised.
He had thought that Selari would fight him to the end even if it meant giving her all. He had even prepared himself to fight recklessly, at worst getting beaten up by Talot, but he didn't expect Selari to concede so cleanly.
Since Selari had proactively forfeited, he naturally canceled his transformation and descended from the sky.
"Since one side has forfeited, then the winner of the last Top 8 Advancement Tournament match is Raditz!" the Blonde Referee, having recovered, shouted loudly, announcing the result of the match.
On the arena, Raditz and Selari faced each other again, smiles on their faces.
"Proactively forfeiting... that really was unexpected," Raditz said.
"Even so, don't get too cocky, Raditz. Just enjoy the feeling of victory," Selari said with a proud look, then walked towards the backstage rest area.
Stopping at the Top 8 wasn't anything to be ashamed of. After all, they all knew each other, and there would be plenty of opportunities to spar.
"Come and fight me again after you catch up," Raditz smiled and followed Selari's steps.
With the end of that match,
the list of the Top 8 was finalized.
The tournament was temporarily paused, entering the halftime break.
The allocation of members for the upcoming Top 8 to Top 4 matches would be determined.
Considering the current condition of the contestants, the Top 8 to Top 4 matches would begin in half an hour.
...
In the audience stands,
"I didn't expect the final outcome to end in such a way, and Raditz's burst of power... is much stronger than he was back then," the East Supreme Kai remarked.
"Indeed, the progress of both of them is not to be underestimated. I can sense that there is still enormous potential within their bodies. If it can be developed through special means, their strength might be far greater than it is now, especially that Raditz..." Old Kai said with a solemn expression.
As a King Kai from before the Fifteenth Generation, he was an old monster who had lived for countless years, and his insight was undoubtedly top-notch.
He saw the shadow of Talot from back then in the current Raditz.
Perhaps before long, they would witness the birth of another Super Saiyan Fourth Grade.
Kibito, who was beside him, had long faded into obscurity.
...
In the audience stands opposite the King Kai,
"The match is over, and the Top 4 Advancement Tournament won't start for another half hour. Lord Champa, would you like to take a walk and exercise during this time?" Vados asked on a whim.
Just then, Champa had finished his snacks. Half an hour was neither too long nor too short, and he could replenish his snacks.
"Then let's go," Champa said, getting up and stretching.
Looking at the boy and girl beside him, Champa suddenly became interested and said, "Do you two want to come with this god?"
The siblings hesitated for a moment, and finally, after seeing their mother shake her head, they declined Champa's invitation.
They would never know what a great opportunity they had rejected.
...
Inside the VIP viewing room,
everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they saw Selari voluntarily give up.
They didn't expect that the competitive and ambitious woman from back then would give up so freely.
Of course, for them, this was undoubtedly the best outcome.
...
In the backstage waiting area,
as Raditz and Selari returned, everyone gathered around.
Listening to the praises of the crowd, Raditz and Selari didn't feel much, and only Talot's words would be taken seriously by Raditz and Selari.
After responding with a few words, the scene quieted down again.
In the upcoming Top 8 to Top 4 matches, internal battles were inevitable.
They just didn't know who would face whom in the end.
But no matter what the match-up was, everyone would take it seriously.
In a corner that no one noticed,
Vegeta and Lagar locked eyes, both top experts eager to fight.
They eagerly hoped that the upcoming matches would put them in the same group.
...
In the blink of an eye, half an hour quietly passed.
Everyone who had left the audience stands returned to their seats.
Accompanied by the Blonde Referee's impassioned commentary, the World Martial Arts Tournament's Top 4 Advancement Tournament officially kicked off! The battle roster for the Top 4 Advancement Tournament was also announced.
The first match: Talot VS Tien Shinhan! The second match: Son Goku VS Martial Artist Zaki.
The third match: Lagar VS Vegeta.
The fourth match: Raditz VS Krillin.
With the announcement of the match list, some were happy, and some were worried.
Backstage in the waiting area.
Talot and Tien Shinhan's eyes met.
Talot's face was filled with a faint smile.
"Please enlighten me in the upcoming match. I will fight you to the last moment without holding back, even if I still lose in the end, I will still go without hesitation!" Tien Shinhan was already prepared.
Even if he was eliminated from the competition, it didn't matter. Such an opportunity to fight Talot was rare and hard to come by. Tien Shinhan knew this was his chance to take it a step further.
He would definitely have many insights from the match with Talot, which would be of great help to his future cultivation and progress.
"Alright, I'm looking forward to your all-out battle. Feel free to come at me when the match starts, and I'm also very curious, you, as a member of the Three-Eyed People, your true power should have been successfully unlocked, right?" Talot smiled, and with one sentence, he exposed Tien Shinhan.
These words made Tien Shinhan feel extremely surprised. His last resort was actually seen through by Talot at a glance.
"As expected, nothing can be hidden from your eyes." Tien Shinhan frankly admitted.
At the same time, he admired Talot's strength even more, and was even more looking forward to the upcoming fight.
During the exchange between Talot and Tien Shinhan.
The most excited were Vegeta and Lagar, their expectations had come true.
Although it was the third match, it was good to watch the battle between Talot and Tien Shinhan before that.
The two had long been looking forward to Talot's strength, and also hoped that Tien Shinhan could force Talot to take it seriously.
As for Son Goku and Martial Artist Zaki, no one cared.
Raditz and Krillin...
Raditz didn't feel any pressure, but instead found it very interesting that his opponent was Krillin.
Krillin was under great pressure. Although his strength had improved a lot, how could he fight Raditz?
In the end, it was Raditz who said that he would not transform into a Super Saiyan, which made Krillin feel a lot more balanced.
