At this moment, the Saiyans of Universe 6 couldn't hide the shock and disbelief on their faces.
Within Universe 6, their strength was undoubtedly among the very best. With a base power level in the millions, they were capable of sweeping across vast portions of their entire universe.
This overwhelming strength was the key to Planet Sadala's ability to maintain peace throughout their universe.
But no matter how powerful they were, there was no way they could reach this level.
What truly stunned them, however, was the transformation Goten had just displayed.
This was a completely unfamiliar domain to them. They had absolutely no idea that Saiyans could transform into a state where their hair turned golden.
"Amazing! What is that?! How did his hair turn gold?!" Kefla's eyes sparkled as she stared fixedly at Goten, utterly captivated.
Beside her, Kale and Cabba were no better off. Their faces were equally filled with shock.
But of course, the tournament wouldn't stop just because of their astonishment.
The matches continued.
In the first round, Goten quickly claimed victory.
The explosive potential of the young Saiyan surged forth, and he even managed to reach Super Saiyan Second Grade.
However, due to suddenly unlocking the second-grade Super Saiyan transformation at such a young age, Goten's body couldn't handle the strain, and he quickly lost consciousness, collapsing on the stage.
The second round saw Trunks step forward. Compared to Goten, Trunks was slightly weaker. His overconfidence cost him dearly, and he was swiftly defeated by Frost.
Then it was Raditz's turn. Unlike Trunks, Raditz's approach was far more straightforward. With one explosive burst of power, Frost was utterly crushed.
By this point in the ten-match tournament, Universe 6 had already lost three fighters.
God of Destruction Champa's expression instantly turned dark and sour, while over on the Universe 7 side, Beerus's face was lit up with a smug grin.
When Beerus saw Champa's scowl, his grin only widened further.
"You bastards!" Champa roared furiously. "If you lose this, I'll destroy every single one of you!"
The anger in his voice sent chills through the Universe 6 team and no one dared to step forward for a moment.
"I'll go!" Finally, Cabba gritted his teeth and stepped onto the stage.
On the other side, Raditz tilted his head curiously at the slim figure standing before him.
"A scrawny Saiyan like you… This is a first. Hey, kid. What's your name?" Raditz crossed his arms and a look of disdain appeared on his face as he spoke.
"C-Cabba," The young Saiyan stammered nervously.
"Cabba, huh? I'll give you a chance. If you can beat me with me only using one hand, I'll count it as your win." Raditz's tone dripped with arrogance as he spoke and he placed one arm behind his back, extending only one hand to face his opponent.
"Really?" Cabba's eyes lit up, and in that instant, confidence surged through him.
"Hmph! Of course it's real! Come then, let me see the strength of a Saiyan from the Sixth Universe!" Raditz spoke with arrogance, his figure shifting into a combat stance.
On the other side, Cabba mirrored him, ready to fight.
Bang!
In the next moment, Cabba moved. His body shot forward like a meteor, charging straight at Raditz.
Cabba's base power level had already surpassed fifty million, and when unleashed, his strength was truly formidable.
In an instant, the two figures clashed in mid-air, streaking like shooting stars as their blows collided again and again.
"Pathetic."
"Hmph!"
Vegeta glanced at the match and let out a cold snort. Standing beside him, Jiang Chen wore a strange expression.
He first looked at Vegeta, then at the arena below.
If his memory was correct, this was supposed to be Vegeta's fight… yet now Raditz was the one in the ring.
Jiang Chen's gaze shifted back to Cabba, deep in thought.
Would this change the course of events?
In the original story, during the Tournament of Destroyers, Vegeta had taught Cabba how to transform into a Super Saiyan. But now, with Vegeta not involved, that moment might never happen.
Would Raditz be the one to teach Cabba the transformation?
Vegeta and Raditz couldn't be more different in personality. Whether Raditz would bother to guide him or not, Jiang Chen couldn't say with absolute certainty.
Of course, nobody else knew what was going through his mind. The audience simply watched the battle with faint smiles, unconcerned.
After all, Raditz's strength was far beyond that of an average Super Saiyan 2. His Super Saiyan 2 form's multiplier was close to 200 times, and his mastery of it was already nearing the level Vegeta had achieved at the start of the GT timeline.
Such power easily placed him among the top-tier fighters of Universe 7.
And during the earlier rounds, they'd already seen Universe 6's "elite" warriors.
Honestly, they weren't as strong as they'd expected.
Meanwhile, the fight in the arena was heating up rapidly.
Bang!
With a single kick, Raditz sent Cabba flying across the stage.
"What's wrong? Aren't you going to transform into a Super Saiyan? Your base strength is impressive, but with just that, you'll never defeat me!"
Raditz frowned as he watched Cabba struggle to his feet, his tone cold and sharp.
To him, Cabba's refusal, or inability, to transform was downright insulting. It annoyed him.
"Su–Super Saiyan? What's that?" Cabba blinked in confusion, instinctively looking up at Raditz.
"You don't know about Super Saiyans?" Raditz froze for a moment, and genuine doubt began to flicker in his expression.
"You really don't know?"
"Senior… is a Super Saiyan that has golden-haired form from before?" Cabba gathered his courage and asked nervously.
"You're telling me… you truly don't know?" Raditz was stunned.
Cabba's words, his demeanor, and his reactions all made it clear, he genuinely had no idea what a Super Saiyan was.
But how could that be possible?
Even back in Planet Vegeta's era, Saiyans knew of the legend of the Super Saiyan, even if none had ever achieved it.
Now, in this age, it was practically standard knowledge among their kind.
"Raditz, the Saiyans of the Sixth Universe are different from us. They don't have the legend of the Super Saiyan, so naturally, none of them have ever achieved the transformation."
Watching the scene in the arena, Jiang Chen smiled and explained.
"So that's how it is. How strange… Your battle power has clearly surpassed the threshold for a Super Saiyan, yet you still can't transform?" Raditz nodded, though a trace of surprise flashed across his face.
After all, Cabba's strength had clearly exceeded the three-million base battle power benchmark for Super Saiyan transformation, yet he was unable to transform. No matter how he looked at it, something felt off.
