“You are also quite strong!” Jiren stared at Xiaya without moving his eyes, his entire body completely tense.
The two just exchanged simple blows once, but the result ended with Xiaya standing tall and Jiren taking a significant step back, which shows that Jiren is not yet a match for Xiaya.
This scared the people of Universe 11.
“How is it possible that Universe 10’s God of Destruction was able to beat back Jiren head-on!”
“Jiren should be invincible among the Gods of Destruction.” Seeing Jiren being beaten back, Belmod could no longer maintain his usual carefree attitude. He grabbed his already thinning hair and shouted out loud in disbelief.
“Belmod, it’s obvious from the result. Xiaya-sama is probably at the fourth level of Divine Realm, just like Bomen-sama,” Angel Marcarita said, deeply looking at Xiaya and Jiren in the arena, her voice cold.
“But he has only been a God of Destruction for a short time…”
Belmod couldn’t accept this result for a moment. He found it hard to believe that Xiaya was an expert at the fourth level of Divine Realm.
Generally, the strength of a God of Destruction wouldn’t differ too much, and they are all at the third level of the Divine Realm. Even the veteran God of Destruction are just at the peak of the third level of the Divine Realm. The fourth level of Divine Realm is the level of Angels. Just like how mortals can’t easily reach the third level of Divine Realm, God of Destruction can’t easily reach the fourth level.
But the facts are right in front of them. Jiren’s strength is undoubtedly at the peak of the third level of the Divine Realm. The only ones who can beat back Jiren have to be at the level of Angels.
Heavens, how did Xiaya from Universe 10 train? He’s only been a God of Destruction for a short ten years and he’s already stepped into the fourth level of the Divine Realm from the third level. You have to know that even Jiren took a long time to reach the peak level of God of Destruction.
Immediately, Belmod thought of more implications and his face changed dramatically.
Now there are two people in the arena who seem to be at the fourth level of the Divine Realm, adding even more pressure on Jiren. But what is even more unsettling for Belmod is that Jiren is currently facing off against Xiaya, which is extremely dangerous.
To be frank, Jiren was the only hope for Universe 11. For this, Belmod didn’t even hesitate to retire early and sent Jiren, who was at the third level of Divine Realm. Originally having strength not weaker than third level of the Divine Realm, he had Jiren comprehend the third level realm of God of Destruction and then wanted Jiren to be able to dominate the “Tournament of Power,” but now it seems that this goal is not so easy to achieve.
“Belmod, we have to prepare ourselves mentally,” Marcarita blinked.
“I know.”
Belmod nodded bitterly. He had calculated everything and thought that Jiren’s strength would already be enough to defeat all the Gods of Destruction, but he did not expect reality to be so unexpected and that there is someone even better. Now, whether Jiren could hold on or not, it will depend on the upcoming battles.
In the arena, Xiaya smilingly looked at Jiren, his cold face had been smiling from the start, while Jiren’s expression was serious, but his large eyes also showed a crazy fighting intent.
As if having felt the other’s fighting intent, Xiaya nodded and said, “The third level of the Divine Realm is quite strong, but if you haven’t stepped into the fourth level, you wouldn’t know how terrifying the fourth level is. It is a completely different realm.”
When he had faced the Dark Angels at the peak of the third level of the Divine Realm, he hadn’t even been able to last a few moves. If it weren’t for Kusu assisting by his side, he would not have had the chance to use the Evil Containment Wave to seal the Dark Angels, and it was naturally due to Dark Angel’s own extremely high realm.
An expert at Jiren’s level could at most withstand a maximum of a hundred moves of Xiaya, but if it was Beerus, he might not be able to hold on for even ten moves.
After gazing at each other for a brief moment, Xiaya launched an attack towards Jiren. At the peak of the third level of Divine Realm or even higher, every movement is compact and concise, returning to the essence. Especially for Jiren and Xiaya, who had each comprehended a high and profound realm, their battle was even more profound and not even a God of Destruction might be able to fully understand it.
In just a moment’s time, Jiren had exchanged blows with Xiaya multiple times, and each time Xiaya had not used any deadly moves, but even so, Jiren was constantly forced to retreat. The two of them fought while backing away, and in the blink of an eye, Jiren had been forced back several kilometers.
Speed, not on par.
Strength, unable to withstand.
Realm, lost by a hair’s breadth, not to mention the actual difference in levels.
Thump, thump, thump.
Facing Xiaya’s increasingly strong attacks, Jiren’s expression was exceptionally serious, but he could only use all his strength and continuously retreat…
The air wailed.
Finally, after Xiaya’s probing ended, a full-force attack descended.
But at this time, a figure blocked Xiaya’s attack, and perhaps knowing that he was not Xiaya’s opponent, Jiren quickly turned into a beam of light and disappeared after the other party appeared.
“Oh!” Xiaya exclaimed softly.
“Are you going to intervene in my battle?” Looking at the person who had appeared in front of him, Xiaya furrowed his brow and suddenly felt that his body was being locked down by a strong aura, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
The person blocking Xiaya was Bomen from Universe 8. Then, he heard Bomen say with an excited expression: “I never expected to see a fellow fourth level Divine Realm expert appear in Battle of Gods. Come, come, let’s have a good fight.”
Xiaya furrowed his brow and said, “This is a competition, I don’t have time to waste with you!”
“That’s exactly why I came to find you. I originally thought highly of Jiren, but your appearance made me change my mind. I’m going to defeat you first.”
Facing Bomen’s stubbornness, Xiaya was a little angry. This competition concerns the survival of the universe. Shouldn’t they first take care of the weak Gods of Destruction? But this Bomen ignored the weak Gods of Destruction and came directly to him.
Perhaps in his eyes, strong and weak are all the same, just a bunch of weaklings!
“Fine, since you want to fight, then I’ll accompany you to the end!”
An icy look appeared on his face, and a calm battle intent flashed through Xiaya’s eyes. In an instant, the two disappeared, and only the sound of continuous bang, bang, bang could be heard, as well as shocking explosions that rose into the sky. Following the two’s battle, the entire Null Realm seemed to be affected, trembling along with it.
Boom!
A sparkling beam of light flashed by, and the void suddenly collapsed inward before violently shattering.
For a moment, the chaotic matter around was violently torn and pushed outward by a force, and soon an explosion occurred in the depths of the void.
This was the power of the fourth level of the Divine Realm.
With a loud bang, Xiaya and Bomen collided before separating hundreds of meters from each other.
Now, the warm-up is over, and from their previous collisions, they have roughly grasped each other’s level. Now it’s time to show their true strength!
With a swoosh sound, two electric arcs shot out and shot towards each other.
Bang!! The sound was deafening.
The intense collision stirred the entire competition venue. After exchanging blows, Xiaya and Bomen retreated countless steps from each other, then they looked at each other, both showing fear and shock.
“You were hiding your strength before…” Bomen said in a low voice after a long silence.
“You too!” Xiaya stared at Bomen intensely.
In the audience seats, all the eliminated Gods of Destruction had become dumbfounded, horrified at the terrifying effects of the battle that had erupted between Xiaya and Bomen. They couldn’t help swallowing their saliva. It was too scary; a casual attack from either of them is enough to knock them unconscious.
“How is that possible? We can’t even see their movements clearly,” Sidra, the dwarf God of Destruction sitting in the stands, said in shock, realizing for the first time that they all couldn’t withstand the combined strength of Xiaya and Bomen.
“4th level of Divine Realm, that must be the 4th level of Divine Realm.”
“They are both at the 4th level of Divine Realm.”
“I have never seen such powerful Gods of Destruction before.”
The remaining Gods of Destruction all sighed. At this time, the mortals were completely unable to join the conversation as even with their keen eyes, they couldn’t see anything at all! In the past, the Gods of Destruction were generally evenly matched and had relatively balanced levels of power. Even if some of them were particularly strong, they weren’t much stronger than the others. But a crushing victory like that achieved by Xiaya and Bomen had never happened before.
At this point, Liquiir, the former God of Destruction of Universe 8, became anxious and quickly sent a message to Bomen: “Mr. Bomen, please put aside your battle with the God of Destruction from Universe 10 for now and defeat the other Gods of Destruction first!”
“Mr. Bomen, please think about the innocent lives of the people of Universe 8!”
It seemed that Liquiir’s words had an effect, because after another clash of palms, Xiaya and Bomen retreated from each other. Bomen’s eyes looked around for a moment before he suddenly flew off in another direction.
Seeing Bomen retreat, Xiaya silently scanned the area and suppressed the fighting intent in his heart. He released an energy wave from the palm of his hand and inwardly muttered, “It’s fine if you leave. I’ll deal with the remaining Gods of Destruction first and come find you later.” He then turned towards another direction to find his next target.
At the same time, on the other side of the vast arena, the battle between God of Destruction Beerus and the fish-like God of Destruction was also nearing its end. With a dazzling energy wave, Beerus unwillingly left the arena.
Although he had successfully defeated Beerus, God of Destruction Giin was also not in a good condition. He was seen holding his drooping arm in pain, his face looking even more sinister.
But luck is a strange thing. Giin, who should have been happy about defeating Beerus, looked miserable the next moment, as if he had used up all his luck. Jiren’s robust figure appeared in front of him, and naturally, Giin couldn’t resist against Jiren at all.
So with a series of rapid attacks from Jiren, Giin also followed in Beerus’ footsteps and was eliminated.
Like Beerus, they each defeated one opponent, so their score deductions canceled each other out and they didn’t get any points.
On the other side, Bomen, who had left his battle with Xiaya, found God of Destruction Arak from Universe 5, and naturally, Arak was eliminated.
Therefore, when Xiaya looked around, he was surprised to find that he had no more opponents.
At this point in the competition, there were only four people left in the entire arena: the bronze-masked man from Universe 1, Bomen from Universe 8, Xiaya from Universe 10, and Jiren from Universe 11. The competition only went on for a few minutes, and the weaker Gods of Destruction were already eliminated so quickly.
