Yap,i remember it,it's an old glitch,there's another one,when you unlock Jade,beat her the first round normally then the second round let the time run out completely,obviously hit her a couple of times first,by doing this you'll avoid fighting Shan Tsung and go straight to Kintaro.

intent of a glitch by the creators silly ed

I remember watching a youtube video on this on someone's channel. Me and him both were confused about it, and I think the one who sent in the request was as well.

But now that I know it was just one of those old glitches, thanks for the clear up!
