The beach was filled with young and old hopefuls. Their purpose is to become the students of a supposed master of martial arts. Some guy called Krillin who most of them had never heard of. A circle was painted on the beach and all the competitors were in there ready for action. But a lot of them were crowded on the east side of the ring. Because on the west side was a giant fat dinosaur with tiny wings on its back. Most were clearly intimidated, but a small group banded together and were sharing strategies.

Krillin scanned his eyes across the group from a beach chair on the roof of Kame House. He knew compared to him and the other Z Warriors these guys were extremely weak. But he was sure some had the potential to be more powerful. All they needed was to be taught. And now that he thought of it this was a great opportunity to make more warriors to defend Earth. Then, out of the corner of his eyes Krillin saw a familiar face in the crowd.

"Huh?" said Krillin more than a little confused. "#18, honey, why is Oolong in the ring?"

"How am I supposed to know?" said #18 who was standing next to Krillin. "He's your friend, not mine."

Indeed Oolong was in the ring, hiding at the back behind the majority of them. He had planned to transform into a monster and scare them out of the ring, but it was now he who was scared.

Krillin called out "Let the match begin!" and punches and kicks started flying everywhere. The dinosaur, Meletran, laughed maniacally and swung his arms around wildly. Six of the competitors were knocked out or the ring instantly, some even landing in the sea. The small group of five that decided to team up earlier charged towards Meletran and all rolled under his legs. Meletran was confused and started trying to swat at them. Two of them, Shinobu and the monkey boy Satoshi, grabbed the dinosaur's tail and pulled. Another two, the raccoon guy Sweeper and a woman called Sonica, knocked Meletran's legs out from under him. This sent him crashing to the ground and a cloud of sand was made, temporarily obscuring Krillin's view of the action.

"Wow, that was great tactics." Krillin said. "Teamwork is always better than brute strength."

When the sand cleared Artica could be seen standing on one arm on top of Meletran's head. He waited until Meletran opened his eyes and immediately threw a ball of sand into them with his other hand. Meletran got up and screamed in pain, stumbling around the ring blindly. Two swipes of his huge arms later, and another five people were sent flying out of the ring. Artica decided it might be wise to get off the dinosaur's head, so he pushed himself off and went to eliminate someone else. One of the bigger competitors, a middle aged boxer called Kario, charged Meletran and uppercutted him in the belly. Meletran, who was already unsteady, was sent rolling backwards several times until he was finally out of the ring. The frustrated dinosaur shook his fist angrily and flew off into the distance.

Artica, Sonica, Kario, Sweeper, Shinobu and Satoshi all cheered and set their sights on the other competitors. They went back to the main group and started fighting them. A small bear tackled Kario and they wrestled on the ground. Artica started bouncing on people's heads, jumping from head to head. Shinobu got into a fist fight with two pro-wrestlers twice her size. Oolong worked up some courage now Meletran was gone and transformed into a tractor with eyes. He then proceeded to drive forward and easily rolled Kario and the bear out of the ring.

"Ha ha!" Oolong yelled in glee as he transformed into a tall and muscle-bound version of himself. "In your face, suckers!"

"Man the pig's actually good." Said Shinobu as she finally forced the two wrestlers out of the ring. Soon there was only about fifthteen left. Artica was in trouble. An elephant-man had grabbed both his legs with his trunk and was now spinning around, building up force to throw Artica out of the ring. But when the elephant let go, a pink lizard-like tail came out of Artica's trousers and wrapped onto one of the elephant's tusks. Artica then sprung himself over the elephant and dropkicked him in the back of the head. The stunned elephant got knocked out of the ring.

"Why does that tail seem familiar?" Krillin thought to himself.

"Yeah, you go kid!" called out Sweeper, who just eliminated another opponent with a tail-sweep.

Oolong then got a funny idea. He transformed himself into a giant balloon and popped himself. The resulting gust of wind blew almost all the remaining competitors out of the ring. The only ones left were Oolong, Artica, Shinobu, Sweeper, Sonica and Satoshi. It was fewer people than Krillin planned on making it.

"Oh well," Krillin said "I guess that makes my job a lot easier. Less people to take care of." He floated down from the roof and went to greet the winners. "Great job guys! Looks like you all get to take the next test. I just have one question for you Oolong. Why did you do this test? Do you want me to train you?"

"Yeah why not. I've got nothing better to do." Oolong said smiling nicely to the others. He then turned around and walked off towards the house with a sly grin on his face.
