"It was like this: I planned to continue training on other planets and become stronger. If that was the case, I couldn't keep taking it easy forever! And there was also my promise with Son Wuling!"
Vegeta looked at Son Wuling, noticed the spaceship Dr. Brief had built, and took advantage of everyone's inattention to pilot it away from Earth.
The spaceship's departure sent a shockwave through the surrounding area!
"Leave him alone. Since Goku doesn't want to come back, I have something I'd like to ask Shenron for. Is that alright, Elder Moori?"
Son Wuling looked at Elder Moori and asked.
"Of course. The Namekian Dragon Balls have three wishes in total." Neither Elder Moori nor the other Namekians had any objections. Calling Wuling their Namekian benefactor would not have been an exaggeration.
"This is really rare, Wuling. It's the first time I've seen you make a wish for yourself!" Bulma, Krillin, and the others said as they looked at Son Wuling in surprise.
"Thank you..."
Wuling lowered his head, looked at Dende, and said, "Dende, please ask Shenron whether the martial arts training method I've created is truly correct!"
Son Wuling still felt uncertain. He had spent a long time feeling his way forward, wanting to forge a path that belonged to Earthlings, and he had failed many times as well. Only after the Grand Elder unlocked his potential had he found his own training method. But after failing for so long, he desperately needed confirmation. There was no one more suitable than Shenron.
Dende nodded and spoke in the Namekian language, conveying Son Wuling's words to Porunga!
Porunga's eyes glowed red as he looked at Son Wuling in silence for a long time.
"Don't you already have the answer in your heart, Son Wuling? In my view, your martial arts path is entirely correct. As long as you do not give up, the future holds limitless possibilities!"
"That's right..."
Son Wuling's eyes lit up, and the huge weight in his heart finally lifted. Porunga's meaning was clear: he was right. He had succeeded!
"This is great! \(^▽^)/!"
Unable to restrain his emotions, Son Wuling threw back his head and laughed loudly.
"Master Roshi, Bulma, Krillin, Yamcha, Piccolo, everyone, I finally found it—a brand-new martial arts path. By combining the power within our bodies with the world's Natural Energy, we can perceive the profound mysteries of the universe. I finally succeeded."
"Congratulations, Wuling!"
Krillin had heard Son Wuling mention it many times before, but unfortunately, they simply could not learn it. They could not integrate Natural Energy into their bodies the way Son Wuling could. Perhaps they just did not have the fate for it.
"Congratulations..."
Yamcha, Bulma, and the others said in unison as they looked at Son Wuling.
Piccolo crossed his arms over his chest and said, "Wuling, is this the thing you told me about before?"
"That's right..."
Son Wuling nodded seriously. Wearing an intensely confident smile, he said, "Draw on the strengths of countless schools, comprehend heaven and earth, and see through the secrets of the universe. I call it the Spirit Immortal School. Master Roshi, everyone, just wait until Vegeta has to wear women's clothes!"
"Oh..."
Krillin, Bulma, Yamcha, Son Gohan, and all the Namekians cheered excitedly. They were never afraid of making a spectacle bigger, and just imagining Vegeta dressed as a woman was enough to make them laugh for years.
The Namekians also said their farewells. Dende, Son Gohan, and Videl, three little friends close in age, had tears in their eyes as Dende made the second wish. Aside from Piccolo, all the other Namekians left Earth.
The second wish was for the Namekians to relocate to another planet suitable for them to live on!
Suddenly, Videl grabbed Son Wuling's clothes and asked curiously, "Master Wuling, why not wish for something like becoming invincible under heaven? Wouldn't that put you above Frieza and Vegeta?"
Videl's words made Son Wuling and the others fall silent. Son Wuling was stunned as well, but then he remembered that Videl was only five years old. If Satan had said something like that, Son Wuling would absolutely have shown him what it meant for there to be no heaven above and no earth below!
"The Dragon Balls' wishes cannot surpass their creator. But more importantly, Videl, you must remember this: the wise seek strength within, while the unwise seek it without."
Videl nodded, half understanding and half confused. Her little mind could not yet grasp the meaning of those words.
Everyone left Bulma's home, and Son Wuling could now be considered the founder of a school. As for why he named it the Spirit Immortal School, it was mainly because he was too lazy to come up with another name!
As for what was meant by within and without, internal energy was the ki possessed by Son Wuling, Son Goku, Son Gohan, and Vegeta themselves.
Every race, such as Earthlings, had a lock placed upon its talents. That was where racial differences came from.
As for the external, it was the Natural Energy Son Wuling now used, developed through exploration and combination based on the cultivation methods in his memories! That boundless search had taken ten years! Today, he had finally succeeded!
Having founded a school, although he only had Satan and Videl as disciples, Son Wuling still had matching purple martial arts uniforms made.
For public wear, there was a fiery crimson cloud robe with a hood—the Akatsuki Robe—for formal occasions outside! It was an image meant to make an impression! It also carried an air of mystery. Of course, the main reason was that it looked cool, along with the lingering chuunibyou memories in his heart!
On Mount Paozu, Son Wuling built another martial arts dojo. The character for Spirit was engraved above it, and the same character was printed on the chest badges and backs of the martial arts uniforms!
Son Wuling called Satan and Videl inside. Son Gohan also came over to join in the fun, wearing the same purple martial arts uniform as him, along with the Crimson Cloud God Robe.
"The Spirit Immortal School is officially established today!"
Satan, Son Gohan, and Videl clapped excitedly.
Son Wuling looked at Satan and said, "Satan, I have a task for you. Make the name of our Spirit Immortal School known far and wide, and become the champion of the World Martial Arts Tournament!"
"Yes, Master Wuling!"
Satan wore a purple martial arts uniform underneath and the God Robe over it as he shouted loudly. He knew his talent was limited, but he felt that as long as people like Son Wuling did not compete, winning the World Martial Arts Tournament would be effortless.
"Videl, gather the remaining six Dragon Balls!"
Son Wuling handed the Dragon Radar to Videl. Now that he had disciples, couldn't he leave these tedious matters to them? As for Videl's age, even if she was only six, her current battle power was already on par with Ginyu from back on Namek. She had surpassed Yamcha and Tien Shinhan!
"Yes, Master Wuling!"
Videl took the Dragon Radar and flew away directly!
Satan also left to participate in this year's World Martial Arts Tournament!
"Gohan, come on. Train with me and let me see the power of a Super Saiyan!"
"Alright, Uncle Wuling!"
Son Wuling brought Son Gohan to the lawn. Son Gohan carefully folded the Crimson Cloud God Robe, looking terrified that he might dirty or damage it, making Son Wuling's face twitch.
Damn, it looks like Son Gohan joined the Spirit Immortal School because he liked this outfit! Well, at least his taste is much more normal than that green set of his.
