The action-packed exhibition match between Universe 9 and 7 continues following the exhilarating match between Majin Buu and Basil. Gohan volunteered to go next where he is facing Lavender who is known for his poisonous arsenal. In episode 80, Gohan is not like he used be be during the Cell Saga and he will certainly suffer for his rusting abilities.
The episode titled, 'Awaken Your Sleeping Battle Spirit! Son Gohan's Fight' started off with Gohan against the ropes. After a brief exchange of blows with both hitting the air, Lavender used his poisonous gas blinding his opponent. Gohan is set against the ropes in no time, as the golden wolf continue pounding Gohan.
In can be recalled that after his epic fight with Cell, Gohan didn't have much fighting experience because of the peace that followed Cell's death. This made him lose his fighting senses and abilities which gave him a handicap against Lavender. However, Goku claimed that the challenge in this match will prove to be beneficial for Gohan in regaining his rusting capabilities and awaken his true powers.
As the fight continued, Gohan realized that though he can't see his opponent he can use his other senses to locate Lavender and make a counterattack. Gohan tracked Lavender's movements by hearing his footsteps while visualizing his movements. However, Lavender recognized Gohans technique and made the smart move of flying to prevent Gohan from finding him as reported by Empty Lighthouse.
Gohan countered the act by turning into a Super Saiyan, where he used his energy as a radar to find Lavender. This method turned out to be a double-edged sword as it hastened the spread of poison Gohan's body. In a final effort, Gohan successfully landed a pile driver which knocks out Lavender and himself from exhaustion where the match was declared as a draw.
According to Anime News Network, a shocking announcement was revealed after the fight where Zenos evaluated each universe and ranked them base on their mortal level. The four top universes will be exempted from the tournament while the lower ones will compete for their survival. With this announcement, Goku was excited by the whole thing while the third and final match of the exhibition series is about to unfold.
