Tien Shinhan stood not far from John, then began to power up, causing his muscles to swell significantly. In comparison, John's physique seemed slender.
It was clear that Tien Shinhan was preparing to use a powerful move, but John wasn't sure which one it would be. It would undoubtedly be one of the signature moves of Tien Shinhan from the manga.
As Tien Shinhan's aura grew more massive, two bumps suddenly appeared on his back, as if they were growing out of his spine.
The bumps continued to grow larger until they formed two new arms.
After completing this move, Tien Shinhan took a deep breath and introduced his new ultimate move to the audience, saying, "Four Witches Technique!"
All the spectators, including the quarter-finalists, were shocked. With four arms against two, the situation was akin to two Tien Shinhans fighting John.
John was very interested and said, "It's a very practical ultimate move. I'm getting more and more excited. I think I'll have to use my full strength to fight you."
John's words immediately made Tien Shinhan furious. "Two layers, you evil brat! You're getting cocky. The more cocky you get, the more excited I become. I'll grab your four limbs and tear you apart."
Just as Tien Shinhan said this, the host kindly reminded him from the side, "This is a friendly competition, and killing your opponent will also result in a loss."
"Shut up!" Tien Shinhan, who was already angry, heard the host's words and shouted, "If you keep talking, I'll tear you apart first!"
The angry tone and gaze from Tien Shinhan startled the host, who immediately jumped off the arena and hid to the side.
John watched the host flee and then smiled at Tien Shinhan, saying, "Is that so? You'll find out after fighting me."
After saying this, John charged forward and threw a punch at Tien Shinhan, and the two of them clashed once again.
However, as the fight continued, Tien Shinhan realized something was wrong. Logically, with four arms, he should have the upper hand.
But why couldn't his four arms break through this guy's defense? Could it be that his opponent was only using two layers of strength?
The more Tien Shinhan fought, the more he doubted John's strength, feeling that John's abilities were unfathomable.
Although Tien Shinhan became more frustrated, the spectators were thoroughly enjoying the match, feeling that coming to watch the World Martial Arts Tournament was truly worth it.
Master Crane, seeing his most formidable disciple Tien Shinhan being suppressed by a member of the Turtle School, couldn't help but have a change of heart.
So, Master Crane used telepathy to give an order to Chiaotzu, who was still in the audience.
"Chiaotzu, use your telekinesis to control that John. We, the Crane School, will not lose to the Turtle School."
Hearing his master's command and seeing Tien Shinhan being completely suppressed on the arena, Chiaotzu finally made up his mind to help Tien Shinhan by using his telekinesis.
After making up his mind, Chiaotzu opened his hands and pointed at John. At that moment, John suddenly sensed something and dodged Tien Shinhan's attack, then fired a ki blast at Chiaotzu.
"Boom!" The ki blast hit the ground where Chiaotzu was standing, and the explosion's aftermath sent Chiaotzu, who hadn't had time to use his telekinesis, flying.
Seeing this, Tien Shinhan shouted in concern, "Chiaotzu!" After shouting, Tien Shinhan furiously attacked John, all the while shouting, "Why? Why did you attack Chiaotzu?"
John was no longer in the mood to play around, so he suddenly unleashed his full strength, sweeping Tien Shinhan off his feet with a kick, then followed up with another kick to Tien Shinhan's head, sending him flying out of the arena.
The intense pain caused Tien Shinhan to immediately release his Four Witches Technique, and he lay on the ground, groaning in pain.
John walked over and said, "Why did I attack you? It's because you didn't follow the rules and tried to use your telekinesis on me."
"Is that reason enough?"
Hearing John's words, Tien Shinhan didn't even think about it. He immediately said, "No, Chiaotzu wouldn't do that."
John continued, "Is that so? What if it was your master, Master Crane, who ordered you to do it?"
John's words made Tien Shinhan pause, and then his expression changed, as this was indeed something his master had done.
At this moment, John suddenly said, "I can see that you're a person who truly loves martial arts. Your skills don't have too many underhanded tricks or killing intent. You and Master Crane are not of the same kind. Leave them and don't follow them down the wrong path. You should return to the most fundamental path of martial arts."
Hearing John's advice, Tien Shinhan immediately refused, "Stop talking nonsense! Have you won already? You're trying to advise me. If you want to advise me, then take my final move."
After saying this, Tien Shinhan used the Bukujutsu technique to fly high into the sky, crossing his arms and gathering ki between them.
Master Roshi immediately knew what move Tien Shinhan was about to use and said to Master Crane, "Have you gone crazy? You actually taught him such a dangerous move. Do you want to kill him?"
Master Crane directly replied, "He's my disciple, and how I teach him is none of your business. Besides, it's not certain who will live and who will die!"
Soon, Tien Shinhan gathered enough ki between his crossed arms in the sky. Perhaps it was because his conscience was pricked, or maybe John's advice had some effect, but he warned John, "My upcoming move will be very powerful. I advise you to dodge it."
John smiled slightly and thought to himself, "Kamehameha, this is indeed a powerful move in the early stages of Dragon Ball, but it also depends on who is using it."
With this in mind, John slightly bent his body and placed his hands in a flower-bud shape at his waist.
Recognizing this familiar move, Master Roshi, Goku, and the others immediately knew what John was about to use. Not fully understanding John's strength, Master Roshi shouted, "Don't do it! Turtle School's Kamehameha can't beat the Kamehameha!"
However, John ignored him and continued to slowly utter the four words, "Ka-me-ha-me..."
As he spoke, a powerful aura flashed between John's crossed arms. Master Roshi, who had been about to tell John to dodge, stopped speaking because he realized that the power of John's Kamehameha had already surpassed Tien Shinhan's.
Tien Shinhan, who was in the sky, saw that John wasn't dodging or avoiding his Kamehameha, and he was about to use his own Kamehameha to counter John's. Moreover, from the aura, John's Kamehameha seemed more powerful than his own.
To prevent John from continuing to gather ki, Tien Shinhan had no choice but to take the initiative and shouted, "Kamehameha!"
Instantly, a bright ki blast shot towards John from between Tien Shinhan's crossed arms, and John followed up with his own Kamehameha.
