Marvel's Magic Master

"Brilliant! Absolutely fantastic! Sun Wukong wins!"

It wasn't until Vegeta disappeared backstage that the host realized what was happening and announced the results of the final match of the first round.

Only then did the audience in the stands gradually close their mouths, stand up, and begin to cheer and applaud.

Although they often couldn't see the two figures clearly during normal combat, it didn't stop them from understanding how exciting the battle was.

They fought from the ground to the sky, and from the sky back to the ground; the sound of fists and feet colliding was deafening.

"Please take a short break, everyone. We'll begin the second round of the competition!"

After Wukong left the arena, the host began arranging the match list for the second round.

"The first match is George against Asin."

"The second match is between Krillin and the Masked Superman."

"The third match is between Satan and Videl."

"The fourth match is between the invincible masked man and Wukong."

While the host was arranging the battle lineup, the Supreme Kai of the East had already devised his battle plan in the backstage rest area.

"Your strength is enough to deal with Dabura, but you are definitely no match for Majin Buu."

So we'll go there immediately and take down Babidi and Dabura before Babidi finishes gathering the energy to break the seal.

At this point, the Supreme Kai of the East said with a serious expression:
"We must be careful not to have too much energy fluctuation at that time, so as to prevent Majin Buu from being stimulated and being unsealed prematurely."

Majin Buu was taken out of the seal by Babidi. Even without enough energy, he will awaken directly as long as he receives sufficient stimulation.

However, Majin Buu in that state was not at his peak strength.

However, Majin Buu, whose strength was not at its peak, was not someone they could defeat.

"Understood, let's go!"

Wukong nodded and slowly rose into the air using the Flying Technique.

The same goes for the others; for them, the World's Number One Martial Arts Tournament is mainly a gathering, not a real competition to determine who is better.

Apart from Vegeta, everyone else has a clear understanding of their own strength.

Klin originally wanted the prize money, but since Number 18 had already made a deal with Satan and received a prize of 20 million, it didn't matter to him anymore.

Number 18 left after the game ended to go to the stands to find his daughter.

"Videl, you stay here, it's too dangerous over there."

Seeing that Videl had also taken flight, Gohan quickly and gently advised her against it.

Bidel was about to object, but after thinking about it carefully, she finally nodded and fell down.

From the preliminaries to now, through conversations with Gohan and others, as well as the battle between Gohan's father Goku and Vegeta.

She now understood that the one who defeated Cell back then was definitely not her father, but the magicians in the videotapes her father had mentioned.

That is, Gohan and his group.

Moreover, their strength is on a completely different level from his own, and there is no comparison whatsoever.

I originally thought I could help if I went, but in reality I would only be a burden, probably unable to keep up with the flight speed.

"You guys go first. Once you know the location, I can teleport there instantly."

George waved his hand; he didn't move at all.

The ability to teleport was just an excuse, because he had no intention of stopping the seal from being broken on Majin Buu.

That's why I deliberately arrived a little later.

Besides, his mother and sister are still here. If he flies away directly, they will probably be very worried.

"Okay, if all goes well, it might be over without me having to come over."

Gohan and the others nodded.

Actually, they didn't want George to come along.

On one hand, they knew that George had trained with Piccolo for a period of time, but they figured his combat strength wouldn't be too high.

Dealing with Sporbic, who has a fighting strength of a few hundred, is not a problem, but dealing with Dapra is too dangerous.

On the other hand, George was not a soldier, but a student, and had no combat experience.

Unlike Krillin, Krillin's fighting strength is significantly lower than theirs.

Having experienced various battles, they are highly skilled and can provide excellent support in crucial moments.

Most importantly, apart from the East Supreme Kai, they were all confident that they could easily defeat Babidi and Dabura and return quickly.

"The second round of the World's Number One Martial Arts Tournament begins."

Now, please welcome George and Asin!

As soon as the host's voice rang out, contestants Asin, Goku, Vegeta, and others flew into the air.

Then it turned into a tiny dot and disappeared from sight, leaving everyone completely bewildered.

"Feifei is gone!"

The first match was Ashin, the second match was Krillin and the Saiyan Masked Man, and the fourth match was Goku.

Half of the eight contestants in the second round have already flown away before the battle even began. What should we do?
The competition was suspended. After discussion among the competition organizing committee members, it was decided that all departing players would be considered as having automatically forfeited the competition.

Therefore, George automatically advanced to the next round in the first game.

Both sides were eliminated in the second round, and the invincible masked man automatically advanced in the fourth round.

Now only the third match, between Bidili and Satan, is needed – a father-daughter battle.

"I abstain!"

However, before the competition even started, Bidili withdrew directly.

Because she already knew that Satan's strength wasn't that great, perhaps even less than her own, she didn't want her father to lose face.

The audience was accepting of this, as it's not a good idea for a daughter to fight her father, especially since she definitely couldn't win and admitting defeat was normal.

So the second round was skipped, and we went straight to the third round.

The third round featured three contestants: George, Invincible Masked Man, and Satan.

"In the third round, let them both go up together. We'll have a free-for-all, and the one standing on the stage at the end will be the champion!"

Seeing that all the golden warriors had left, leaving only last year's defeated opponent and an ordinary high school student, Satan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

So when the organizing committee was discussing the rules for the third round of the competition, he went up directly and made a proposal with great confidence.

He was only afraid of those who defeated Cell back then, but if the opponent was anyone else, he could take on ten people at once, let alone two.

Perfect, this way I can also show off my abilities.

Only when the second and third place teams join forces can they defeat him can his first-place ranking be truly proven.

"Since Mr. Satan has spoken, let's do as you say."

Satan is what the investors of this competition care about most, and he is also the key to ensuring that the martial arts tournament has sufficient funds.

Therefore, they dared not disobey Satan's advice.

Moreover, such a chaotic battle can boost popularity, and the audience would probably enjoy watching it.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Satan has just made a suggestion."

Soon, the host explained the rules of the third round of the free-for-all, as requested by the organizing committee.

The audience certainly loved the melee and cheered again.

Meanwhile, George, Satan, and Gohan and Goten, disguised as invincible masked men, walked towards the ring.

But before going up, George asked Beatrice a question:
"You should already know your father's strength. To be honest, if I went up there, he wouldn't stand a chance."

"Should I go easy on him?" "Father has indeed been too lax these past few years. Losing just once wouldn't be a bad thing for him."

Bidel was silent for a moment before finally giving her answer.

As a daughter, she couldn't defeat her father herself, so it was a good thing that George defeated him.

George nodded upon hearing this:

"I'll make sure he loses with some dignity."

He's not Gohan, and he has no connection with Satan, so naturally he won't give way to Satan.

For him, winning this match would allow him to legitimately receive ten million in compensation for the mother and sister in this body.

Although he could conjure up countless amounts of money, he couldn't explain to Emma where that money came from.

Or it could be the same as blackmailing Satan for more money.

However, since Videl had signed his sister's autograph, he also learned how to use ki from Gohan.

That's why he specifically asked Bidili's opinion.

Satan lost this time, and his reputation may suffer a bit, but as the runner-up, it's not unreasonable.

Besides, he has made a lot of money over the years under the guise of saving the world, making him a veritable tycoon. That's already quite an achievement.

"Game start!"

The gong sounded, and the third and final round of the melee officially began.

Goten and Terence rushed towards George immediately. They had already realized that the so-called number one expert in the world, Satan, was actually not strong at all.

So they went straight into battle against George, who had trained at the Temple of the Gods and seemed to have considerable strength.

George was unfazed by the combined onslaught of Goten and Trantus, easily blocking them all with a simple raised hand.

Without transforming, Transtus and Goten would only have a fighting power of around 200 million.

Because it was inconvenient to coordinate hand and foot movements while hiding in the cloak, the combat power of 200 million could not be fully utilized.

He now possesses a combat power of over 10 billion simply by judging by his aura, so he can easily crush him.

As for the other side, Satan is preparing to take action and eliminate both sides.

Seeing the battle in front of him, which was on a completely different level from his own, he was dumbfounded once again.

He couldn't understand how an ordinary high school student, whose punching power test score was even lower than his own, could be the opponent he had easily defeated last year.

Why do they have such terrifying combat power now?

He felt that it was becoming increasingly difficult for him to even stand there and deal with the aftershocks of the punches generated by the two men's fight, let alone go up to fight.

"Brother George is so amazing, Trantus! We can't possibly beat him like this!"

"Goten, let's become Super Saiyans!"

After a fierce battle, Goten and Trantus realized that they were no match for George at all; George hadn't even moved an inch.

So, disregarding the possibility of being discovered, he let out a loud shout and transformed into Super Saiyan form.

"This is a bit troublesome."

George stroked his chin.

After transforming into a Super Saiyan, Gohan and Transformers' fighting power soared to around 10 billion, which was slightly less than his.

If it were to be a fight, he could win even without using other methods, it would just take some effort.

"Let's stop here then!"

He raised his hand and pointed at Goten and Trantus, who were coming over.

"Remove your cloak."

The cloaks covering Goten and Transcendental instantly detached from their bodies and flew away, revealing their true forms.

"Goten!"

"Trantes!"

Bulma and Chi-Chi on the viewing platform stood up at the same time.

Seeing this, the host immediately announced:
"Two players participating in the game at the same time constitutes a foul and disqualifies them from the competition!"

"We're doomed! Run!"

Just as Goten and Trantus flew to George's side to prepare for battle, they realized there was no way to continue the game, so they quickly flew out of the arena without looking back.

With Gohan and Trantus disqualified, the focus now shifts to George and Satan.

All eyes were on him, and Satan's forehead was instantly covered in cold sweat.

He knew perfectly well that he was no match for George.

But if he actually went up to fight, he estimated that he wouldn't be able to withstand a single move, and that would be truly embarrassing, ruining all the reputation he had built up.

Or should we do what we did in the first round and use 20 million to bribe the other party?
But upon closer reflection, it seemed like a difficult problem.

This kind of thing only works if the other party takes the initiative to propose it; if they have to bring it up themselves, it's very difficult to achieve the desired result.

With so many people watching, he couldn't speak directly. But if he used an attack to get closer, given the opponent's strength, he would most likely be sent flying before he could even utter a word.

"I've got it! It seems this is the only way!"

After careful consideration, based on his experience from last year's performance, he suddenly came up with a way to save face.

He turned around and strode to the edge of the ring, then, with a face full of weariness and satisfaction, loudly proclaimed:

"After waiting for so many years, finally, finally we have seen some promising young talents."

Although your fighting skills are far inferior to those of Cell and me back then, they are still quite impressive.

I believe that with time and proper practice, I will surely reach my peak level.

I've been at the top for too long; it's time to step down and give way to younger people so they can grow better.

At this point, Satan suddenly clutched his chest and coughed loudly. After coughing, he turned to George with expectant eyes and said:

"I was seriously injured when I fought Cell back then, and I still haven't recovered."

Young man, our future rests on your shoulders!

After saying that, he jumped off the ring.

"Mr. Satan"

Seeing Satan, his back hunched over as he jumped off the ring, seemingly relieved of a heavy burden, the audience in the stands immediately had tears in their eyes.

They never expected that Mr. Satan had been competing all these years despite his serious injuries, all in an effort to inspire the world.

However, when they discovered a truly promising young man, they disregarded fame and fortune and unhesitatingly gave up the championship.

All for the sake of giving future generations a better future.

Thinking back to the previous junior group competition, in order not to discourage the young people, Mr. Satan also ended the competition in a joking manner.

"I have never seen such a shameless person."

Standing in the ring, George couldn't help but twitch his lips.

He didn't expect Satan to be such a good actor; it's a real shame he's not an actor.

He had just been thinking of pretending to exchange a few blows with Satan so that he wouldn't lose too badly, but he never expected that Satan would be able to preserve his reputation in this way.

"Never mind, he's Gohan's father-in-law after all."

However, in the end, he did not expose it.
