When I'm in the middle of flying toward the battle, both Kakarot and Vegeta suddenly flash in front of me while being slightly tired from the spar that was just happening.
Goku-"Sage, have you come to finally fight me!?"
Sage-"Hmph, think what you want Kakarot, but I was about to start training and I needed some decently strong sparing partners, and luckily you two were in the vicinity."
Vegeta-"Tch, so we're just decently strong to you?"
Goku-"Aww, c'mon Vegeta, Sage didn't mean it like that."
Smirking at Vegeta's reaction which is just like I expected it would be, I decide to tell them the truth of what I thought about them, hopefully eliciting slight anger from them.
Sage-"No, that's exactly what I meant Kakarot, you two might think your strong, but in my eyes, you guys aren't even worthy opponents. That's why I had to wear this heavy suit, otherwise, I wouldn't even be able to call it training if I sparred with you guys."
Hearing my words caused them to both feel offended as I was clearly mocking all the hard work and struggle they went through to achieve such power, and it worked in creating anger in both of them, especially Vegeta as he transformed directly into an SSGSS and charged at me.
Vegeta-"Let me show you the power we've worked for then!"
Seeing Vegeta charge at me with such anger puts a smile on my face, as I know an angry Vegeta isn't easily calmed, but then again no Saiyan is easily calmed when angry. As I already have taken my bracers off, I directly charge towards the incoming Vegeta, meeting him halfway we collide against each other which winds up with me getting flung away.
Sage-'This is great! With the current difference in power, Vegeta will be able to easily beat me up, and that's exactly what I wanted! And with how angry he is, I doubt he will be holding back his attacks.'
Stopping myself in mid-air, I reorient myself before quickly blocking a kick to my stomach and while I managed to block the attack, I could feel the bones in my arms on the verge of breaking from the force of the kick.
Pushing my arms open, I force Vegeta back, and before he could leave I grabbed his leg and punched him in the face, but Vegeta's head pushed against my arm allowing him to turn his head to look at me as he smiled.
Vegeta-"Is that the best you got!?"
I was about to reply but before I could, Vegeta retaliated in the same way I attacked him, but sadly I wasn't strong enough to just take the attack without flinching. When the punch landed on my cheek, It dislocated my jaw before I got sent flying in the distance and only managed to stop after getting sent hundreds of meters.
Looking in the direction where I got sent from, I see Vegeta flying right at me with a smirk on his face. Smiling, I reconnect my jaw and spit out some blood before charging right back into the battle with even more ferocity than last time.

Sage-"Ha…Ha…Ha… C'mon, you scared now or what?"
Looking at Vegeta who is currently somewhat exhausted and has minor injuries after our battle, which by the way wasn't easy to inflict on him.
Vegeta-"Tsk, I see no point in continuing this battle, you're no longer at your peak, the rest of the fight will be boring."
After he said that, he reverted back to his base before flying off in the distance to where Kakarot is currently training with Whis.
Sage-'Tch, coward. It seems this Vegeta also has his differences.'
Flying back to the mountain where I'm temporarily staying at when I arrive the first thing I do is grab a capsule, open it, and quickly eat all the food. While I'm eating, I assess the injuries I accumulated through the battle.
Sage-'Nothing serious, a few broken bones and that's about it. I'll heal overnight.'
Once I finished all the food, I walked out of the cave and started another round of intense training, I don't know exactly how long I trained for but if I had to guess I would estimate about 6 hours. By the time I got done training, it was already dark outside so I went to sleep, when I woke up I felt refreshed, and hungry. Eating some food, I left the cave and flew back to where Vegeta and Kakarot are to continue my training.
This cycle repeated itself for several months and while I trained with Vegeta or Kakarot, I eventually got strong enough to the point where they had to both fight me simultaneously, of course knowing them they wouldn't happily fight me together, but while I was fighting one of them I would also attack the other one, forcing both of them to fight me.
While I was meditating atop the mountain, I suddenly looked up in the sky and when I did I saw a beam of light that looked identical to how Whis traveled, but the thing was, Whis is currently training with Vegeta and Kakarot, I also can sense a presence very similar to Beerus's. No, I can't sense their ki, only beings who have god ki can sense another's god ki, but after training with Vegeta and Kakarot for several months I have managed to instinctually sense the presence of beings who have god ki, although I can't actually sense their ki.
Sage-'If I had to guess, that should be Champa and Vados, good thing they decided to come when I'm alone, I want to spend as little time as possible interacting with that pathetic and childish God of Destruction. Honestly, if Champa could become a God of Destruction, then the qualifications must be quite low.'
Anyways, I ignore their presence and continue meditating for another hour before I see them leave. Standing up, I fly over in the direction where I sense Beerus's presence, when I arrive I see Beerus and Whis talking while Vegeta and Kakarot are walking around in what looks like a fat suit.
Landing on the ground, I walk over to Beerus and Whis, but when I do Beerus quickly flashes to my side before wrapping his arm across my shoulders, or at least he tries to but the difference in our height is too big for him to do that.
Beerus-"Ha yes, how could I forget about you, with you here that bastard Champa has no chance of winning that stupid bet!"
Whis-"Really Beerus, to have someone fight for you who isn't even supposed to be here, could you stoop any lower?"
Beerus-"Champa never specified the rules, all he said was I had to pick 5 warriors from my universe, he never said they had to be from this timeline did he? Hahaha."
Sage-"What the hell are you guys talking about!?"
