Although participation in this World Martial Arts Tournament on Planet Vegeta was limited to the planet's residents, there were still a few unexpected contestants among them.
While Lin Chen and the others watched the matches across the various rings from above, a commotion suddenly broke out around one of the rings below.
A crowd of Saiyans had gathered around the tournament staff beside Ring 52, shouting at the top of their lungs.
"Bardock, what's going on over there?" Lin Chen asked.
Bardock glanced over, but he couldn't make sense of it either.
Seeing this, Lin Chen simply led Bardock and the others down toward Ring 52.
"What's going on here? What are you all shouting about?"
When they saw that Lin Chen himself had arrived, the Saiyans, who had been red-faced and agitated just moments ago, immediately bowed their heads and dropped to one knee before him, calling out, "Greetings, King Linx!"
"Get up, all of you. What were you doing just now? What's all the shouting about?"
One Saiyan immediately said, "Your Majesty, we think that match was unfair! We can't accept the result!"
"The match was unfair?" Lin Chen frowned and turned to the staff nearby.
"Have the matches in Ring 52 already finished?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. The winner of Ring 52 is Dr. Gero's Artificial Alien No. 7."
Hm?
Artificial Alien?
Lin Chen paused in surprise, then looked toward the ring.
Only then did he notice that the contestant standing in Ring 52 wasn't a Saiyan at all, but a purple-skinned alien with a frog-like mouth.
Huh?
Isn't that Cui from the Frieza Force in the original story? How did he become an artificial alien?
Wait...
Lin Chen soon realized that he truly couldn't sense even a trace of a living being's ki from this Cui.
