"That's the thing. I planned to continue training on other planets and become even stronger. If that was the case, I couldn't keep taking it easy forever! And there was also my agreement with Son Wuling!"

Vegeta looked at Son Wuling, noticed the spaceship Dr. Brief had built, and took advantage of everyone's distraction to pilot it away from Earth.

The spaceship's departure sent a shockwave through the surrounding area!

"Forget about him. Since Goku wasn't willing to come back, I had a question I wanted to ask Shenron. Would that be okay, Elder Moori?"

Son Wuling looked at Elder Moori and asked.

"Of course. The Namek Dragon Balls have three wishes in total." Neither Elder Moori nor the other Namekians had any objections. It would not be an exaggeration to call Wuling their Namekian savior.

"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 actually correct."

Son Wuling still lacked confidence. He had spent a long time feeling his way forward, trying to forge a path that belonged to Earthlings. He had failed many times as well. Only after Grand Elder had unlocked his potential had he found his own cultivation method. But he had failed for too long and desperately needed confirmation. Shenron was the best one to provide it.

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 while.

"You already have the answer in your heart, don't you, Son Wuling? From what I can see, your martial arts path is absolutely correct. As long as you do not give up, your future holds limitless possibilities!"

"That's right..."

Son Wuling's eyes lit up, and the heavy stone in his heart finally fell away. Porunga's words meant he was right. He had succeeded!

"This is great! \(^▽^)/!"

Unable to restrain his emotions, Son Wuling burst into loud laughter.

"Master Roshi, Bulma, Krillin, Yamcha, Piccolo, everyone—I finally found it. A brand-new path of martial arts, combining the power within our bodies with the Natural Energy of the world, perceiving the 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 like Son Wuling could. Maybe they just did not have that fate.

"Congratulations..."

Yamcha, Bulma, and the others said in unison as they looked at Son Wuling.

Piccolo crossed his arms over his chest. "Wuling, is this the thing you told me about before?"

"That's right..."

Son Wuling nodded seriously, smiling with immense confidence. "Draw on the strengths of every school, comprehend heaven and earth, and perceive 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 erupted into excited cheers. They loved a good spectacle, and just imagining Vegeta in women's clothes was enough to make them laugh for years.

The Namekians also said their farewells. Dende, Son Gohan, and Videl were three friends of similar age, and with tears in their eyes, 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 the hem of Son Wuling's clothes and asked curiously, "Master Wuling, why not wish for something like being invincible in the world? Wouldn't that put you above Frieza and Vegeta?"

Videl's words made Son Wuling and the others fall silent. Son Wuling was also stunned, but then he remembered that Videl was only five years old. If Satan had said something like that, Son Wuling would definitely have shown him what it meant for there to be no heaven above or earth below!

"The Dragon Balls' wishes cannot surpass their creator. But more importantly, Videl, you must remember this: the wise seek power within, while the foolish seek it without."

Videl nodded as if she understood, though her little mind could not yet grasp the meaning of those words.

Everyone left Bulma's house. 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 think of another name!

As for what was meant by within and without, internal energy was the energy possessed by people like him, Son Goku, Son Gohan, and Vegeta.

Every race, such as Earthlings, had a shackle placed upon its natural talent. That was where the differences between races came from.

External energy, on the other hand, was the Natural Energy Son Wuling now wielded. He had developed it by combining his explorations with the immortal cultivation methods from his memories! That boundless search had taken ten years! Today, he had finally succeeded!

Though he only had two disciples, Satan and Videl, Son Wuling still prepared matching purple martial arts uniforms for the founding of his school.

For formal appearances outside, he wore a fiery red, cloud-patterned, hooded Akatsuki Robe. It was an outfit meant for formal occasions and 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 memories of his old chuunibyou days!

On Mount Paozu, Son Wuling built another martial arts hall. The character for Spirit was engraved above it, and the same character was printed on the chest emblems and backs of the martial arts uniforms!

Son Wuling called Satan and Videl inside. Son Gohan also came over to join the fun, dressed in 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 Spirit Immortal School famous and become the champion of the World Martial Arts Tournament!"

"Yes, Master Wuling!"

Satan wore a purple martial arts uniform beneath his God Robe and shouted loudly. He knew his talent was limited, but he felt that as long as Son Wuling and the others did not participate, winning the World Martial Arts Tournament championship 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 just let them handle such tedious tasks? As for Videl's age, even if she was only six, her current battle power was already on par with Ginyu on Namek, surpassing both Yamcha and Tien Shinhan!

"Yes, Master Wuling!"

Videl picked up the Dragon Radar and flew away at once!

Satan also left to participate in this year's World Martial Arts Tournament!

"Gohan, come on. Spar with me and let me see the power of a Super Saiyan!"

"Okay, Uncle Wuling!"

Son Wuling brought Son Gohan to the lawn. Son Gohan carefully folded up the Crimson Cloud God Robe, so afraid of getting it dirty or damaging it that Son Wuling could not help twitching.

Damn, it looked like Son Gohan joined the Spirit Immortal School because he liked this outfit! Well, at least his taste was much more normal than that green outfit of his.
