As the aura perception enveloped the entire World of Void.
Under Talot's Divine Sense perception, the barrier of this World of Void was already within reach.
It was indeed much more solid than he had imagined.
It seems this Tournament of Power is more interesting than I thought, not only the strength of the World of Void, but also the participants... Talot's gaze swept around, and he began to assess the strength of the other universes' contestants.
Talot's actions naturally quickly attracted the attention of the contestants from other universes, but those people didn't care much about it.
How could the strength of someone be seen at a glance?
Only through real combat could one know who was strong and who was weak.
Of course, for existences like Talot, they could see through the bottom line at a glance.
At this moment, the others in the Seventh Universe were in shock.
Such an independent small world existing in chaos as their battle stage was far beyond their imagination.
Especially the spiral-shaped floating arena under their feet.
"Bottomless darkness... If we fall, we're definitely dead." Krillin stood at the edge of the arena, looking down, and immediately felt his scalp tingle and his heart tremble.
"It's indeed unbelievable..." Tien Shinhan was also shocked by the bottomless darkness, and said with a horrified expression.
Hearing their conversation, the silent Angel Whis explained to everyone: "Before the tournament starts, let me tell you the rules of this Tournament of Power... As long as you fall out of the arena, you will lose your qualification to participate. Similarly, killing your opponent is also the same. In addition, there will be a special force on the arena that will restore the gravity of your original planet. And for fairness and justice, all contestants are deprived of flight skills, so please abide by the rules..."
"Deprived of our ability to fly? Doesn't that mean the Levitation Technique can't be used?!" Son Goku said in surprise.
He subconsciously used the Levitation Technique to try to fly, but no matter how hard he tried, the Levitation Technique could not be used. He could only stay in place, unable to even hover, let alone take off.
This situation surprised everyone, and they all tried it one after another.
This rule was simply incredible, a confinement ability.
And if that was the case, wouldn't it mean that if they were knocked down, they would never be able to return?
"Wait! Since the tournament deprives us of our ability to fly, what about those guys in the sky?" Vegeta asked in a deep voice.
Everyone's eyes followed Vegeta's words and swept around. At this moment, on the arena in the World of Void, there were many contestants with wings soaring in this chaos.
"I just said that what is deprived is the contestants' flight skills! And the wings behind them are part of their bodies, and also a natural ability, like walking on the ground... Therefore, it is not included in the acquired flight ability." Whis explained.
"That means these guys have a huge advantage. Relying on their wings, they can avoid most of the battles, and even stay until the end." Son Gohan sighed.
"No! You're wrong about that, Gohan." Piccolo suddenly spoke, and then explained, "In my opinion, having wings is not a good thing. Although they can fly, everyone here is a master, and they will never be at a disadvantage because of this little ability. On the contrary, because they have wings and can fly, they will be the first batch of contestants to be eliminated."
It could only be said that Piccolo was indeed Piccolo, and his vision was sharp.
His analysis was well-reasoned.
In the face of absolute powerhouses, even if you can fly, it's useless. An energy wave can lock you down.
"Piccolo is right. Everyone, it's up to you to perform next. Beerus and I will take a step ahead to the spectator area." After Whis finished speaking, he glanced at Talot, then slowly floated into the sky and flew towards the spectator area.
"Perform well, don't disappoint me." God of Destruction Beerus instructed Son Goku and Vegeta in a deep voice, and also glanced at Talot meaningfully, then moved and followed closely behind Whis.
No sooner had Angel Whis and God of Destruction Beerus left than a call came from not far away.
"Master!! Master Vegeta!!" A call attracted everyone's attention.
Looking around, the Saiyan Cabba from Universe 6 was running happily towards Vegeta's location.
"Don't shout randomly, I have never admitted to having a disciple like you." Although Vegeta had not verbally admitted to having a disciple like Cabba, he had already defaulted to it in his heart.
These words made Cabba, who had run over, feel at a loss, and he could only scratch his head awkwardly.
It had to be said that Cabba was very similar to Trunks.
Then, two Female Saiyans also walked over, attracting the attention of Vegeta and Son Goku.
With their eyesight, they could see that these two Female Saiyans had extremely powerful power hidden within them.
"Did they tell you about the Super Saiyan transformation? Cabba." Caulifla, the leader, asked with a proud face.
Behind Caulifla, the socially awkward Kale seemed so unnatural, not saying a word.
Son Goku and Vegeta also directly ignored Kale, but they did not know that this little girl who was easily overlooked was one who only appeared once every thousand years among the Saiyans.
"[The Legendary Super Saiyan Power... To what extent can Kale of this parallel world unleash that power?]" Talot's gaze fell upon Kale.
On a whim, he mobilized a bit of Great Ape Legendary Super Saiyan Power to test if there would be any resonance.
As his Great Ape Legendary Super Saiyan Power emerged, Kale suddenly froze in place, then abruptly turned her head to look at Talot.
Her heart rate accelerated, and the Saiyan blood within her resonated to a certain extent due to the Great Ape Legendary Super Saiyan Power emanating from Talot.
It seems... she's about to lose control and erupt! Seeing that Kale was on the verge of exploding, Talot immediately stopped his little experiment and withdrew the Great Ape Legendary Super Saiyan Power back into his body.
As he retracted his power, Kale returned to normal, but she still remembered the feeling from just now. She looked at Talot meaningfully, but didn't dare to speak.
Next, Cabba began introducing Vegeta and Son Goku to Caulifla.
Calling them 'master' so affectionately made Vegeta's eyelids twitch. Although he appeared very serious, he was actually very happy deep down.
...
"Grand Priest, the contestants from the Eleventh Universe have arrived."
Just then, in an inconspicuous corner of the arena, spatial ripples appeared.
The God of Destruction and Angel from the Eleventh Universe, along with the Pride Troopers representing the Eleventh Universe in the Tournament of Power, descended at that moment.
The instant they arrived, an invisible, powerful aura enveloped the space.
As a top-tier powerhouse, Talot was the first to sense the impact of this power, and his gaze turned towards its source.
Son Goku belatedly sensed something, scanned his surroundings, and finally saw the key figures.
"It's them! Everyone, I'm going to say hello!" Upon seeing his old acquaintance Toppo, Son Goku immediately dashed towards the area where the Eleventh Universe was located.
Vegeta also shifted his gaze at this moment, drawn to the warriors from the Eleventh Universe.
Especially... a guy who looked ridiculously strong from his physique alone!
"That guy... such a strong aura..." Vegeta muttered, his heart heavy.
"Tch~! The Saiyans from the Seventh Universe don't seem like much. That aura is just so-so," Caulifla quipped.
Clearly, she was an ignorant and fearless newcomer, unaware that her own strength was pitifully weak.
Her remark clearly irritated Vegeta.
But the Tournament of Power hadn't started yet, so he couldn't teach her a lesson.
Watching Caulifla lead Kale back to their universe's side, Vegeta's expression was uncertain.
Cabba, looking embarrassed, apologized and then left as well.
...
Meanwhile, on Son Goku's side.
He went straight to Toppo.
In his mind, Toppo was the strongest being in the Eleventh Universe, completely ignoring the strongest person Toppo had mentioned during their battle.
Jiren naturally noticed Son Goku's approach, but after only a few brief glances, he had already discerned Son Goku's approximate strength.
Weak, so weak that he couldn't even be bothered to make a move.
Jiren ignored him and then did the same thing as Talot.
He used his vast sensory abilities to envelop the entire World of Void, carefully sensing the aura emanating from everyone.
Through the mutual resonance between strong individuals, Jiren quickly noticed Talot.
Their eyes met at that moment. Talot was scrutinizing Jiren, while Jiren was also sizing him up.
Jiren was somewhat surprised by Talot's existence, not expecting such a being to exist in the Seventh Universe.
Perhaps in this eighty-person free-for-all that concerned the fate of the universes, only that one person was worthy of his serious attention.
Jiren was very confident in his own strength, even arrogant!
In his view, strength was absolute, strength was everything. His power even surpassed the God of Destruction, so who could fight him? "[This Jiren's strength is probably much more formidable than I thought.]" With just a few brief glances, Talot roughly gauged the level of Jiren's power.
Conservatively estimated, Tenth Dimension! In the original story, the reason this guy seemed so strong, even able to compete with Son Goku in Perfect Ultra Instinct, was entirely because his arrogance was shattered, he was forced into a desperate situation, and he recalled his past emotional trauma, thereby breaking his limits and stepping into the Eleventh Dimension.
...
The last row of Universe 11's team.
Angel Marcarita of Universe 11 was scrutinizing Talot.
As an Angel, her eyesight was incredibly sharp. She could tell at a glance that Talot didn't belong to this space-time world, yet he bore the mark of being acknowledged as existing.
Most importantly, this mark was personally placed by her father, the Grand Priest! There's a huge secret hidden on the Seventh Universe's side. Angel Marcarita mused inwardly.
Just then, Son Goku noticed Jiren. This careless guy subconsciously wanted to greet Jiren, but Jiren gave him a rude awakening the moment they met.
In an instant, Jiren teleported behind Son Goku at a speed he couldn't even see.
"Get lost!!!" Jiren muttered in a deep voice.
These words immediately startled Son Goku, breaking him out in a cold sweat.
When did this guy... appear behind me? Son Goku's body trembled, quite shaken by Jiren's intimidation.
Toppo was right before, he really wasn't the strongest in Universe 11.
This bald guy was! Heh heh heh, now you know fear, Son Goku... Toppo sneered inwardly, noticing Son Goku's dispirited appearance.
Ignorance is bliss. Only those who truly understood Jiren knew how terrifying his power was.
At that moment, the last missing part of the Tournament of Power arena was repaired, and the classic scene from the original story unfolded.
Son Goku was toyed with, while Jiren remained completely unfazed.
The tournament was about to officially begin.
Startled, Son Goku returned to the Seventh Universe's camp. Because of this incident, everyone except Talot had a grave expression.
The group gathered to discuss, but no concrete conclusion was reached.
...
Meanwhile.
In the void.
The Grand Priest appeared, first summoning the Zeno from Zeno's Temple, who took their seats on the supreme throne.
Then, after the entire arena quieted down, he began to explain the rules of the tournament.
According to the original storyline, there should have been two Zenos, one of whom was brought over by Son Goku from a destroyed future timeline.
But because of Talot's intervention, the Zeno from the future timeline was not brought over by Son Goku, so there was only one Zeno at this Tournament of Power.
After explaining the rules of the tournament, the Grand Priest, under Zeno's instruction, officially announced the commencement of the Tournament of Power!
This tournament, which involved the survival of universes, officially began.
'Rumble~~~!!!!!!'
With the start of the competition.
In an instant, incredibly dazzling sparks of battle erupted in the arena.
It could be said that the contestants from each universe were using their best skills to avoid being eliminated in this cruel elimination round and to win the championship for their universe, so they could be the last ones to remain.
Colorful explosions almost covered the entire space of the arena.
Some were fighting fiercely, just to eliminate their opponents and win the championship for their universe, so they could be the last ones to remain.
Some chose to temporarily hide in the shadows after the chaotic battle broke out, looking for opportunities to ruthlessly eliminate those whose defenses had weakened.
The more chaotic the situation developed, the more advantageous it was for those rats hiding in the dark.
Like Frost from Universe 6.
This guy was from Frieza's race in Universe 6, a rather despicable and insidious villain.
