This data looked terrifying.

But everything was under the assistance of the martial arts training plan perfected by Li Xing, supplemented by various high-tech weapons.

Every member of these security forces had met the standard.

Even the rank-and-file members were required to have a combat power of over 100.

In other words, The current Aurora Group, relying solely on its own strength, had over fifty talents capable of flight.

This was not even counting Li Xing's formidable power.

The Aurora Group's security department alone, after a year of development, was fully capable of sweeping across the entire Earth and ruling the world.

If one added the wealth of the Aurora Group and its technological prowess, It could completely and firmly control the Earth.

In fact, aside from its high-profile technology, the Aurora Group was truly very low-key.

Whether it was Li Xing, the three heads, or the three supervisors, they rarely appeared before outsiders.

All of this was naturally because Li Xing, their creator, completely crushed them in both martial arts and technological strength.

At the same time, he had always upheld one requirement: to develop in a low-key manner.

He could be bold and reckless with technology, but when it came to martial arts, Li Xing dared not act carelessly.

The waters on Earth ran deep.

"Mr. Li? Mr. Li?"

Li Xing's thoughts had been wandering recklessly.

Xiao Wu, on the other hand, was getting anxious.

Bulma was still in the lobby.

With no word coming from him for so long, she couldn't handle the pressure.

Don't let appearances fool you into thinking she controlled everything in the Aurora Group; in reality, Li Xing was the one in total control.

Han Jie snapped back to his senses.

"Let her come up."

Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment before she realized what he meant.

"Alright, I'll bring her up immediately."

Li Xing didn't speak.

So what if Bulma knew it was him?

As long as he didn't expose the underhanded schemes he was working on in the shadows, there was nothing Bulma could do about him.

However, the Martial Arts Peak Tournament needed to begin as soon as possible.

Not long after, Bulma was led by Xiao Wu into his office.

"It's you."

Xiao Wu's eyes darted back and forth between Li Xing and Bulma with a look of confusion.

Li Xing waved his hand, signaling for Xiao Wu to leave.

"So, you are actually the young lady of the Hoi-Poi Capsule Corporation."

Bulma proudly tilted her head up.

Without standing on ceremony, she walked straight up to Li Xing's desk.

"You jerk, do you have any idea how worried I was back then?"

A faint smile played on Li Xing's face.

Was Bulma really worried?

He was nothing more than a stranger to her.

"Come to think of it, that incident should have been your fault."

Bulma slammed her hand on the desk.

"You jerk! A person suddenly jumped out in the middle of nowhere on a road like that; how could I have possibly reacted in time?"

Li Xing raised an eyebrow, offering no reply.

He had risked the possibility of being crippled precisely because he needed Bulma to fail to react.

If Bulma had reacted in time, how could he have carried out his plan to snatch the Four-Star Dragon Ball from Sun Wukong and complete his mission to obtain the Devour Ability?

"Miss Bulma, what is the reason for you coming to our group and even forcing your way in?"

"You jerk, it's all because of your Martial Arts Peak Tournament."

Li Xing narrowed his eyes slightly.

This Bulma, she must be so used to being spoiled that she thinks everyone will just cater to her whims.

Li Xing's face darkened, his tone heavy and dull.

"Miss Bulma, as the eldest daughter of the Hoi-Poi Capsule Corporation, you should be well aware of basic etiquette and manners."

"You call me a bastard at every turn and even forced your way into our corporation."

"And now, you're still acting so righteous."

"No matter how you look at it, this isn't something the eldest daughter of a major corporation should be doing."

Li Xing's low voice echoed continuously throughout the office.

Bulma's voice came to an abrupt halt, and she stared at Li Xing, dumbfounded.

"You, you."

"What? Did I say something wrong?"

Li Xing's gaze was scorching as he stared at Bulma, showing no courtesy whatsoever.

Bulma stared at Li Xing, feeling uneasy.

Her fair little face flushed bright red.

"Well, I came here for a reason, too."

"Then couldn't you have requested a visit?"

Li Xing's tone was stern, his eyes unblinking.

"Miss Bulma, it was only because Xiao Wu discovered you in time. If she hadn't, tell me, do you think our security guards would have broken your legs?"

"They wouldn't dare!"

Bulma's eyes widened, and she stood with her hands on her hips, speaking in a fit of rage.

Li Xing stared at Bulma coldly.

"To be honest, I am very disappointed in your Hoi-Poi Capsule Corporation and in you, its heiress."

"I have deep doubts about our cooperation."

"Hmph!"

"Do you really think your word is law?"

Li Xing's gaze sharpened.

Is this Bulma really Bulma, and not someone impersonating her?

How could such a brainless remark come out of her mouth?

Li Xing did not continue this topic.

"Do not say you weren't warned. Miss Bulma, whatever business you have here, finish it and please leave as soon as possible."

Bulma's pretty face was covered in frost.

"I want to speak with the head of your technology department."

Veins bulged on Li Xing's forehead.

If he remembered correctly, just a few minutes ago, he had instructed Pilaf to handle Bulma.

This girl had flatly refused, insisting on seeing him instead.

Now that they were face-to-face, this woman wanted to speak with their corporation's scientists.

Is she playing some kind of sick joke?

"Before you came up, I had Xiao Wu tell you that our head of research and development would be the one to discuss things with you."

"You insisted on seeing me."

"Now that you're seeing me, you want to see our head of research again."

"Miss Bulma, do you think I don't have a temper?"

Bulma raised an eyebrow.

"Are you going to do it or not?"

"Please leave."

Li Xing stared coldly at Bulma.

Bulma's face turned from pale to livid, and she gritted her teeth.

"Li Xing, believe it or not, without me, no powerful fighters will come to your Aurora Martial Arts Peak Tournament. Your tournament will be nothing but a hollow shell and a laughingstock."

Li Xing sneered at Bulma.

"You mean that Master Roshi and his group?"

Bulma's expression shifted to one of shock, and she stared at Li Xing in disbelief.

"How did you know?"

The mocking expression on Li Xing's face did not fade.

"I didn't know; I just didn't expect the young lady of the prestigious Hoi-Poi Capsule Corporation to be such a fool."

"What did you say?"

Bulma's face darkened further, and she glared at Li Xing, baring her teeth.

"You don't actually think that our corporation would go to such great lengths without any preparation or investigation, do you? And you don't really think that we spent so much manpower, material resources, and wealth to host this Martial Arts Peak Tournament just for fun, right?"

Bulma frowned.

She couldn't grasp the deeper meaning behind these words at all.

Li Xing had no intention of hiding anything.

He sneered as he stared at Bulma.

"We did all this and spent so much money because we developed a special nutrient solution that can help martial artists with their training. We also sent people to observe the World Martial Arts Tournament. According to the readings from our Ability Scanner, the strongest person there was that guy Jackie Chun, who was played by Master Roshi."
