Bulma's Arrival, the Terrifying Aurora Group Security Department

Now, finally, a new ability had appeared.

Li Xing made his choice quickly, fearing that if he made a mistake, Task Three would vanish.

This was a good thing.

The successful selection of this kind of task brought benefits to Li Xing that went without saying.

Regardless of whether he knew exactly what this thing was, choosing it was the right move.

As for the difficulty of Task Three?

To Li Xing, there was no difficulty at all.

Creating danger and whether it would harm ordinary people—what did that have to do with him?

Even if there were danger, it would only harm those ordinary people and wouldn't affect him.

On the contrary, because of the danger, everyone would pay even more attention to the Aurora Martial Arts Peak Tournament.

It would create a great deal of profit for his group.

Even more people would gain a clear understanding of the Martial Arts Peak Tournament.

This was very similar to when King Piccolo first appeared.

Wasn't everyone just a stagnant pool of water before?

By creating a common enemy, everyone's spirits would tighten, and naturally, they would be able to unite.

Things that were detrimental to unity would naturally need to be discarded.

This was Li Xing's current line of thinking and his plan.

He had already intended to stir up trouble, so why would he be afraid to do it at the Aurora Martial Arts Peak Tournament?

Furthermore, by doing it this way, people wouldn't focus their attention on the Aurora Group, nor would they think that the Aurora Group was manipulating things from the shadows.

In fact, it could even be considered a good thing.

As long as he could improve his strength, Li Xing would stop at nothing.

A bad guy?

Does a good person even exist in this damn world?

Li Xing felt nothing but disdain in his heart.

After making his choice, he waited quietly.

Fighting against the martial artists recruited by the Aurora Group, he could currently only absorb about ten thousand points of constitution.

In other words, if he wanted to increase his constitution, he would need to spar ten thousand times to gain a single point of improvement.

And even then, only the Three Security Chiefs and Ashu and his ilk could provide that.

That is to say, only those with a combat power exceeding 250 could provide it for him.

Fighting ten times a day, it would take at least three years to gain a single point.

Compared to being able to rapidly improve his strength, sparring with the Aurora Group's security personnel had instead become a daily chore.

They sparred four times a day, and for the rest of the time, they found others to practice and fight with on their own.

"I need to research a serum to boost strength.

Money alone isn't enough to attract those top-tier powerhouses."

Li Xing was busy working in the laboratory.

The various rogue warriors in the wild were able to improve themselves through tempering in harsh environments without any systematic training methods.

The talent of those people definitely far exceeded that of the security personnel recruited by the Aurora Group.

If he could select seven or eight people from that group to progress alongside him, engaging in grueling battles every day, it would certainly be a significant boost to his own strength.

Furthermore, the number of Senzu Beans was, after all, very limited. Given the massive base of security personnel in the Aurora Group and their consumption rate, the meager production was nowhere near enough.

These were all things he needed to work hard to research.

Thinking of this, Li Xing also felt like complaining.

Bulma was clearly the top scientist on Earth, and she often hung out with Sun Wukong and the others.

Why couldn't she research some special combat suits or healing liquids?

In the early stages, one could say her horizons hadn't been opened and she didn't know about extraterrestrials.

But later on, after the Saiyans appeared and she knew about their technology, she still didn't attempt to research or manufacture anything.

Yet, in the end, she could pull out an unscientific device like the Time Machine just like that.

After Baby took control, that device used to amplify and strengthen the Blutz Waves was also incredibly impressive.

How come she never thought to research something truly useful for Sun Wukong, Vegeta, and the others?

Li Xing grumbled in his heart, but he didn't take it too seriously.

After all, this was the real world; its development could not be contained by the tiny timeline of the original story.

Just like that.

The Hoi-Poi Capsule Corporation, which previously had no presence to speak of, had actually entered into a partnership with them.

They had even accepted an invitation to attend the Peak Martial Arts Tournament hosted by the Aurora Group.

It wasn't that they were going to compete, but rather they were providing sponsorship and serving as the final group of spectators.

One had to realize that this tournament was being broadcast globally.

A select few television stations had paid a massive price just to secure the broadcasting rights.

This move by the Hoi-Poi Capsule Corporation to partner with the Aurora Group could be called an absolute landslide victory.

Li Xing was thinking this when he received a notification from Xiao Wu.

"What is it?"

"General Manager Li, the eldest daughter of the Hoi-Poi Capsule Corporation, Miss Bulma, has come to our group and wants to see you."

Li Xing was stunned.

He had just been thinking about Bulma, and now she had appeared right before his eyes, specifically requesting to see him by name.

Was this some kind of telepathy?

At this thought, Li Xing hurriedly shook his head.

Just kidding.

While Bulma couldn't exactly be called a loose woman, her behavior was definitely not that of a virtuous lady.

Some people might be into that, but he had no such interest.

What's more, he was only a little over seventeen years old; he wasn't even an adult yet.

"What does she want?"

"She says she wants to discuss technology with you."

"Send Pilaf."

"I gave her that answer, but she wouldn't accept it and tried to force her way in. Fortunately, the group's security guards stopped her."

Hearing this, Li Xing couldn't help but sneer.

That young lady had always been used to acting recklessly.

She even dared to slap that terrifying guy, Beerus.

Although, he couldn't for the life of him figure out why a high and mighty god would be on the receiving end of a slap from Bulma.

Never mind him being baffled; even if Bulma's palm had made contact with Beerus, it shouldn't have been able to even shake his skin.

He didn't want to delve too deeply into all that; there were still over twenty years until that day, so he didn't need to be in any rush.

But this was the Aurora Group.

Trying to force her way in? She must have grown a pair of guts made of steel.

He was certain that if Xiao Wu hadn't appeared in time to stop those security guards, Bulma would eventually be crying and searching for the Dragon Balls, only to end up begging him for help, desperate to summon Shenron to restore her legs.

"General Manager Li, what should we do now? We can't really keep blocking her. Their Hoi-Poi Capsule Corporation still has many important collaborations with our group."

Among the three of them, only Xiao Wu truly savored the thrill of working in such a corporation.

With a single word, countless people would lose their jobs, and entire families would lose their source of income.

It could be said that she now held the livelihoods of many people in her hands.

Her words were even more effective than a king's.

This was the confidence brought to her by money and power.

Not to mention anything else, their own combat power had already reached over 200.

They might not be able to serve as captains, but in the security group, they were at least at the level of squad leaders.

Forgot to mention one thing.

The Aurora Group Security Office had also become fully formalized.

There was a Minister, Ashu, whose combat power reached over 280;

Three supervisors, all with combat power over 250;

Nine captains, with combat power over 230—these nine had been restless, constantly plotting to topple the three supervisors and take their places;

Thirty-six squad leaders, all with combat power over 200;

And the team leaders had combat power between 150 and 200.
