Dai Kaiō leads the assembled four Kaiō, as well as many of the Afterlife's greatest martial artists, through his palace and to a door hidden deep within. When he first opens it, the space appears to be mostly empty space, with asteroids and similar debris scattered around.<ref>{{Cite episode\|Series=Z\|Eps=196}}</ref> Over an unknown period of time, the four Kaiō work together to create the final tournament space.<ref>{{Cite episode\|Series=Z\|Eps=197}}</ref>

			The final tournament area looked similar to those seen in previous tournaments: the tournament stage is a raised square area in the middle of an expansive arena. Immediately outside the stage is an area where coaches and teams are permitted to stand and observe the matches. Dai Kaiō's raised platform sits off to one side. Although the space around the planetoid appears infinite, the area is bounded on all sides by a tile "floor".<ref>{{Cite episode\|Series=Z\|Eps=199}}</ref>

	The ~~preliminary~~ portion of the tournament is not ~~directly~~ depicted, although ~~aspects of it~~ can be inferred from ~~imagery and~~ dialog. The tournament announcer initially presents a tournament bracket containing 136 contestants, with eight combatants given a bye in the first round. In ~~the~~ depiction, the tournament would last seven rounds. This is reinforced by crowd scenes depicting the East and South Kaiō delivering pre-tournament advice to large groups of fighters-- at least twelve were visible in each scene-- with the potential for others to be off-camera. Under this model, each of the Kaiō would be expected to bring 34 fighters to the tournament.

The implication is that the other fighters did not make it into the tournament itself, which is just beginning.

	Goku and Paikuhan spar, but neither takes the fight seriously. Paikuhan feigns being nearly pushed out of the ring to counterattack Goku, but they remain even. The match pauses as Paikuhan tosses off his weighted turban and clothes. Goku says that he too will take the battle seriously and transforms into a [[Super Saiyan]]. Goku lobs a fast ''[[kamehameha]]'' followed by ''ki'' blasts, but Paikuhan's incredible speed ensures that he dodges all of them easily. Paikuhan uses [[Hyper Tornado]] and captures Goku in a whirling vortex that cuts him and his clothes; with incredible effort, Goku is able to stabilize himself and send the tornado flying off into space. Goku counters by using a [[Super Kaiō-ken\|Super ''Kaiō-ken'']], but Paikuhan recovers quickly and nearly kicks Goku out of bounds. Paikuhan takes the offensive again with [[Thunder Flash]], a horizontal column of fire that roasts Goku at the edge of the ring. Goku stands, but Paikuhan pummels him with the same attack again. He tries to finish off Goku with a ''ki'' barrage, but the Saiyan recovers and the two soar all the way to the ceiling (each touching it briefly) before returning to the ring. Paikuhan launches Thunder Flash again, but a third view was all Goku needed to find the attack's weakness: he [[teleports]] behind Paikuhan at just the right moment and knocks him out of the ring. Son Goku wins! However, Dai Kaiō consults the rule book and disqualifies both combatants for touching the ceiling. The Tournament ends without a winner.
