The Zen Exhibition Match is a preliminary match for the Tournament of Power pitting three contestants each from Universe 7 and Universe 9—the two universes with the lowest mortal levels—against each other in three consecutive non-progressing matches. After the third match, Toppo of Universe 11 challenges Goku to a match as well.

Name

The term 全覧試合 (Zenran’jiai) is a play on 天覧試合 (tenran'jiai), an exhibition match held with the emperor in attendance. 全/Zen ("all; complete; whole; entire", as in "Zen'ō", the Omni-King) replaces 天/Ten (heaven, indicating the emperor, the child of heaven).[1] Before the reveal of the official Toei Animation translation of "Zen Exhibition Match" in the simulcast subtitles for Dragon Ball Super Episode 78, some fans used the translation "Omni-Present Matches".[2][3] Steven Simmons adapts the pun as "Royal PreZence Matches" in his subtitles for the FUNimation home videos, emphasizing the "Zen" in his misspelling of "Presence". This was further adapted to "Zeno Expo" in the FUNimation dub.

Summary

Future Omni-King was not present at the God of Destruction Invitational Tournament. He has never seen a martial arts tournament before and he does not want to wait until the Tournament of Power to see what it is like. The Omni-Kings want Goku and two other warriors from Universe 7 to come to the Omni-King's palace to fight three warriors from Universe 9. The Great Priest tells them to be there in one hour, then takes his leave. Goku is excited, but Beerus is still angry with him for taking the Omni-King so lightly. Shin says that if Universe 7 is erased in the Tournament of Power, he will never be able to atone for so much loss of life. Goku offers to ask the Omni-King to refrain from erasing anything, but Whis does not think this is a good idea. It was their idea to erase the universes, after all, and if Goku displeases them, they could be erased on the spot.

Goku is at a loss, and Beerus chastises him severely for realizing the dangers of the Omni-Kings too late, and promises to make him pay for his naivety. Goku decides that just means he has no choice but to win. He will defeat his opponent no matter who it is. The Elder Kaiōshin concedes that they have no choice but to let Goku do his thing, but first, they need to find the other two participants, and then, they have to make ten for the Tournament of Power. Beerus tells Goku it is his responsibility to hurry up and find two more fighters.

Goku asks Vegeta first, and Vegeta reminds him that he cannot leave Bulma's side when she is about to give birth. Goku looks to where Goten and Trunks are sparring nearby, and Vegeta suggests that Goku ask his son. Goku says that Goten and Trunks are too young, but then he remembers that he has another son. He thanks Vegeta for the hint, and takes off to find Gohan. Gohan is not sure about entering, but Goku assures him that his fighting instincts will come back quickly enough. Gohan is still not convinced, so Goku decides to tell him the consequences of losing in the Tournament of Power, insisting that Gohan not tell anyone else, including Videl. Gohan worries that this news could spark a panic and riots if it gets out, but Goku assures him that they are the only two on Earth who know the truth. Gohan admonishes his father to tell no one else about it.

Videl calls out to Gohan from their house, telling them to come inside to talk. Goku explains he was just inviting Gohan to participate in a tournament, but Gohan does not want to go. Videl insists that Gohan be a good son and help his father. At that moment, Pan flies into her mother's arms, and Videl asks her if she had a good time at Mister Satan's house. After watching this scene, Gohan tells Goku he will fight. He has something to protect. Then Satan walks up with Majin Boo and Bee trailing behind him. Goku flies past Satan to ask Boo to do him a favor; Satan tells Goku that he will do whatever Goku needs, but Goku says he needs Boo for this favor.

A short time later, Goku is with Gohan, Majin Boo, and Mister Satan back in the Kaiōshin Realm. Beerus does not think much of this team, and asks why Satan is there; Satan explains that he is the only one Boo will listen to. Beerus asks Goku if they know about the consequences of the tournament; Goku tells him that only Gohan knows, because they do not want to cause a panic. Shin then transports everyone to the Omni-King's palace with the Kai-Kai technique. Beerus warns Satan and the others to not do anything out of turn.

In the corridor, they encounter the gods and warriors of Universe 9. Shin greets their gods, noting that it has been a long time since they have seen each other, and the Kaiōshin Rou smiles. Goku sizes up the Trio de Dangers, asking if these are the people they will be fighting, and Gohan says yes. The Great Priest arrives and tells them he will make a ring and seating for the matches. Reaching out a hand, he seems to conjure everything inside a void beneath the palace. Everyone falls onto one of two platforms for each universe which are positioned on either side of the fighting stage, while the Great Priest floats on his own platform. He calls for the gods of all the other universes, who float down on small observation platforms of their own. Each universe's Kaiōshin, God of Destruction, and Angel are present, and the universe eventually revealed to be Universe 11 has an extra, hooded person on their platform.

Goku calls out to Champa, who he has met before, and Satan begs him not to speak so casually to a god. Goku explains that they know each other, but the Great Priest asks him to be quiet. He then addresses all of the gods, who have already been informed about the upcoming Tournament of Power, and explains that the Future Omni-King is impatient to see what a martial arts tournament is like. He then announces the arrival of the Omni-Kings, and everyone bows formally, but Goku calls out to "Zen-chan", immediately sparking outrage from the other gods. Goku flies up to greet them, but Beerus follows after him, kicking him back to their platform and apologizing profusely to the Omni-Kings. Satan repeats his warnings, and Beerus agrees, reminding Goku that they will be erased. Satan questions this, and Beerus realizes he has said too much.

The gods chatter amongst themselves about Goku's interruption, but then the Great Priest announces that the tournament came about because of a proposition from Goku, and he invites Goku to say a few words. Goku explains that he heard there were a lot of strong guys out there he had never heard of, so he asked the Omni-King to host this tournament so he could fight them. The Omni-Kings ask him to show them a good fight, and he promises he will. The Great Priest tells the gods that the Zen Exhibition Match will consist of three consecutive one-on-one matches between representatives from Universe 7 and Universe 9. There will be no time limit; the matches will continue until one person concedes or is no longer able to fight.

Rou asks what the prize will be, and the Great Priest tells him there is no prize; they are only here to appease Future Omni-King, and if they fail in this task, the Great Priest warns that it might be cut short. Sidra asks whether they will be erased if the Omni-Kings are bored, and the Great Priest says this is possible. He then asks the first contestants to enter the ring. Basil announces he will go first for Universe 9, and Rou tells him that he is counting on him. Bergamo tells him it should be no sweat. Goku reminds Majin Boo that they had decided he would go first, but Boo has fallen asleep. Beerus asks Satan what he is there for, and Satan rushes to try to wake Boo. He manages to rouse Boo with a chocolate bar, telling Boo to go play with the dog in the ring. Satan promises him more chocolate, so Boo enters the ring, yawning.

The Great Priest announces the start of the match, and a gong sounds. Basil and Boo exchange blows and Basil knocks Boo to the fighting stage, where he appears to be unconscious, but then Boo smiles.[8]
