A few minutes later, the sound of beings breaking through the air echoed one after another. Gods of Destruction, Angels, and Supreme Kais from all 12 universes appeared one by one. They knelt respectfully to the ground, but when some of the Gods of Destruction saw Goten, their faces showed surprise. Why had Zeno summoned them this time? Did it have anything to do with the mortal in front of them?
"Hey Beerus, do you know why Lord Zeno called us all here?" Champa whispered to Beerus.
"Hmph! How would I know?" Beerus replied. "I hope it's not a bad thing." He could only pray that Zeno had not decided to punish their seventh universe because of Goten's appearance.
At this moment, Quitela of the fourth universe spoke up. Looking at Zeno and the Grand Priest, he asked, "Lord Zeno, Lord Grand Priest, why have you summoned us here suddenly?"
All the Gods of Destruction looked at Quitela. This guy had a lot of guts sometimes. He didn't seem as afraid of Zeno as the rest of them. But Zeno and the Grand Priest didn't seem to mind these little things.
The Grand Priest smiled and said, "Everyone, please rise! I called you here to announce something."
As the Grand Priest's voice fell, all the Gods stood up. Most of their eyes were on Goten. Their intuition told them that Zeno and the Grand Priest had summoned them because of this mortal.
"Actually, you have all been summoned to meet someone. This is Mr. Goten. Starting today, he will become the Grand God of Destruction and will be your immediate superior."
After the Grand Priest finished speaking, he looked at Goten.
"Hiss..." All the Gods of Destruction and Supreme Kais gasped. They looked at Goten in unison, horror in their eyes.
The position of Grand God of Destruction was coveted by all the Gods of Destruction. Many felt they didn't have the strength for it and didn't harbor any illusions about the position. However, they assumed the position would eventually go to one of the Gods of Destruction among the 12 universes. They never expected it to go to a mortal!
"What? Are you kidding me? A mortal as the Grand God of Destruction? How could this happen? I thought this position would go to one of the Gods of Destruction."
"What is the origin of this mortal? How is he favored by Lord Zeno and the Grand Priest?"
After a moment of shock, the Gods of Destruction started whispering among themselves. It was obvious they were unconvinced. A mortal, unknown to them, had been appointed as the Grand God of Destruction. Naturally, this was hard for them to accept.
If the position had gone to any God of Destruction, they wouldn't be dissatisfied. But a mortal taking the position was difficult to swallow. No mortal had ever surpassed the level of a God of Destruction in any universe.
"That kid Goten, I thought he would be punished. Instead, he became the Grand God of Destruction. Unbelievable," Beerus said, surprised.
However, Beerus did not feel the same as the other Gods of Destruction. He knew Goten's strength well. It definitely surpassed the level of a God of Destruction, even that of an Angel. So, if Goten became the Grand God of Destruction, it wasn't too unacceptable. After all, their society respected strength, and Goten had the qualification and power...
When all the gods were whispering, Quitela, the God of Destruction of the Fourth Universe, spoke again. Looking at Zeno and the Grand Priest, he said, "Lord Zeno, Lord Grand Priest, isn't this decision a bit too hasty?"
"How can an insignificant mortal hold such an important position as the Grand God of Destruction? I'm not convinced by such a decision, and I don't think the other Gods of Destruction are either. The position of the Grand God of Destruction should be chosen from among us gods."
Quitela was not only pompous but also lacked brains. After saying such words, all the gods broke into a cold sweat. He had openly questioned the authority and decision of Zeno and the Grand Priest! This was akin to courting death. It would be one thing if he alone were wiped out, but it would be troublesome if their universes were implicated.
"Oh? Are you questioning Lord Zeno's decision to appoint Goten as the Grand God of Destruction of the multiverse?" the Grand Priest asked, glancing at Quitela with an indifferent tone. "This matter was actually Lord Zeno's decision, and it's not up to you to accept it or not."
A mere God of Destruction dared to question Zeno's decision! It seemed this guy no longer wished to live.
"You disagree with Goten becoming the Grand God of Destruction? Do you want to disappear?" Zeno said, his expression changing as he looked at Quitela with cold eyes.
Upon hearing the words of the Grand Priest and Zeno, Quitela's expression changed instantly. He quickly knelt down on the ground. "Extremely sorry, Lord Zeno, I didn't mean that! Forgive my stupidity," Quitela said in a terrified tone. He didn't expect Zeno to be so resolute about this matter!
"Hmph! I'll let you go this time. If you say such a stupid thing again, I will wipe you and the Fourth Universe from this world," Zeno said coldly. The other gods were already trembling with fear, casting resentful glances at Quitela. This bastard was really too pompous. How dare he question Zeno's decision? Wasn't that courting death? Although they were not convinced in their hearts, they would never question his decision in front of Zeno!
"Okay, everyone," the Grand Priest continued. "In addition to getting to know the new Grand God of Destruction, you are also here to see his strength. Next, the Grand God of Destruction will have a friendly spar with Lord Zeno's guards. I think after this battle, the Grand God of Destruction will completely convince those of you who are dissatisfied!"
After finishing speaking, the staff in his hand tapped the ground lightly. Immediately, the entire palace began to undergo tremendous changes. In a short while, it had become a huge arena. The other Gods of Destruction, Supreme Kais, and Angels were sent to the auditorium.
"Lord Zeno, the arena has been prepared. The battle is ready now," the Grand Priest said to Zeno.
"OK! If that's the case, let them start the competition! I can't wait!" Zeno, returning to his childish appearance, said expectantly. Then, the two guards and Goten flashed and appeared directly in the ring.
All the gods and angels were full of curiosity. They wondered how powerful Goten was to become the Grand God of Destruction appointed by Lord Zeno.
"Hmph! I really want to see what kind of power this mortal has, to be so valued by Lord Zeno," Champa said in a low voice.
"Lord Champa, the strength of the Grand God of Destruction is indeed too strong. From his body, I feel the power of destruction, the power of an Angel. If my feeling is correct, the powerful aura before was released from his body," Vados, who was next to him, whispered. If she wasn't wrong, that sudden appearance of powerful aura before was definitely released from that mortal's body. Because the distance between the Sixth Universe and the Seventh Universe was relatively close, she felt it more clearly than the other Angels.
