Asmodeus's expression stiffened, his entire body frozen on the spot, unable to move any further.
Tao Pai Pai retracted his tongue, licked his lips, leaving bright red blood on them.
"Smack!"
Asmodeus fell to the ground with a loud thud, completely dead.
"Waaah..." Mark immediately started wailing in terror.
"Are you this guy's disciple?" Tao Pai Pai looked at Mark with a smile, licking his lips again.
Mark was directly scared into wetting himself.
"Since you're on good terms with him, then die together!" Tao Pai Pai said, already lifting Mark high into the air.
Mark struggled desperately, but it was useless.
Vegeta and the others did not interfere with what was happening here.
After all, it had nothing to do with them.
Kale similarly had no reason to stop the events unfolding on the scene, long accustomed to a life of fighting and killing.
Just as Tao Pai Pai was about to smash Mark to death, he caught a glimpse of Soya out of the corner of his eye.
Tao Pai Pai silently looked over, the more he looked, the more familiar Soya seemed.
Previously, because Soya had eaten the Dou Dou candy, his presence was extremely low.
Therefore, Tao Pai Pai hadn't looked carefully.
But just now, Tao Pai Pai suddenly noticed Soya, feeling like he had seen this person somewhere before.
"Kid, why do you look so familiar to me?" Tao Pai Pai, still holding Mark high up, came before Soya and scrutinized him from head to toe.
"Something wrong?" Soya asked with a smile.
"I remember! You're that king from yesterday who made the April Fool's joke! Right?" Tao Pai Pai immediately came to his senses, slapping his forehead hard.
"Mhmm, mhmm, mhmm." Soya nodded.
"Your declaration yesterday was very interesting. I was all ready to go kill someone, and then you suddenly said you were joking with me?" Tao Pai Pai's face darkened, glaring angrily at Soya.
"Negative emotional value from Tao Pai Pai +999!"
This kid is too infuriating!
"And you dare to come participate in the World Martial Arts Tournament!" Tao Pai Pai snorted coldly, casually throwing Mark away.
"Whoosh!"
Mark drew an arc in the air, flying away out of sight.
"Which match are you in?" Tao Pai Pai asked.
"Can you fly?" Soya suddenly asked in return.
Tao Pai Pai: "..."
"What? What exactly are you trying to say?" Tao Pai Pai frowned.
"I can." Soya said, his body levitating.
Tao Pai Pai's face darkened even more.
"Negative emotional value from Tao Pai Pai +888!"
Are you showing off to me?
Vegeta and Raditz felt utterly speechless, neither wanting to talk.
What are you boasting about in front of an Earthling?
It's not like we can't fly either.
"I can too, I can too." Kale said, also flying up, appearing beside Soya.
Tao Pai Pai: "..."
Tao Pai Pai's face instantly turned as black as a coal ball.
"Bukujutsu! What is your relationship with Master Shen?" Tao Pai Pai's face changed slightly, his brow furrowing a little.
I never heard my brother say he took any disciples recently!
How can these two people fly?
How strange!
"Master Shen is nothing." Soya replied directly.
"There's a guy called Master Roshi, and I even beat him up!" Raditz added disdainfully.
Tao Pai Pai looked at Raditz, then at Soya, two veins bulging on his forehead, a thick killing intent appearing in his eyes.
This brat beat up Master Roshi?
Is he bragging?
"It seems you can't fly. I suddenly thought of a great game. How about making you this planet's satellite?" Soya grinned, directly grabbing Tao Pai Pai and soaring into the sky, instantly piercing through the clouds, flying towards higher altitudes.
At first, Tao Pai Pai struggled desperately, giving Soya a massage.
However, soon, Tao Pai Pai was terrified.
This guy's speed is way too fast!
Can he even fly this fast?
After reaching a certain height, Soya suddenly increased his speed, swiftly circling around the planet.
In just a few minutes, Soya had already circled the Earth once.
Tao Pai Pai was completely terrified.
What did I just see?
This guy actually circled the Earth?
This is too terrifying!
"Off you go!" Soya let go.
"Whoosh!"
Tao Pai Pai flew straight out, beginning to orbit the planet.
And as Tao Pai Pai flew out, he continuously provided negative emotional value to Soya.
Soya was absolutely delighted.
If only there were a few more of such great negative emotional value farming machines.
Soya did not kill Tao Pai Pai.
If the person dies, the negative emotional value stops.
Isn't it better to keep him around to boost my combat power?
Soya quickly returned to the waiting area.
From this point on, apart from Jaco, all the remaining contestants in the tournament were Saiyans.
Jaco suddenly felt something was wrong.
I feel so innocent.
Even if I win my match... I'll ultimately face either Vegeta or Soya.
Huh? When the time comes, can't I just forfeit?
According to the tournament rules, I can voluntarily withdraw.
But, I can teach that brat Raditz a lesson first.
It's a match after all!
You probably won't mind, right?
"Then, the World Martial Arts Tournament officially begins! Let's welcome the first set of contestants!" The referee, now standing in the ring, announced loudly through the microphone, "Please welcome contestants Asmodeus and Tao Pai Pai!"
After the announcement, the venue immediately erupted in warm applause and cheers.
Then, the referee waited for a long time, but there was no response from backstage.
The referee craned his neck, looking towards the backstage area. When he saw Asmodeus lying in a pool of blood, he was dumbfounded.
"Mr. Asmodeus... what happened to him?" The referee was startled.
"Dead." Soya replied.
Referee: "..."
I can see that he's dead.
You stating it is the same as not saying anything.
"Negative emotional value from the referee +666!"
"How did he die?" The referee asked urgently.
"Killed by Tao Pai Pai." Soya answered truthfully.
"Where is Tao Pai Pai?" The referee asked again.
"Flying in the sky." Soya pointed towards the high altitude.
"Whoosh!"
Just as he spoke, Tao Pai Pai flew past high up in the sky.
Of course, the referee couldn't see it, as that height was very far away.
The referee felt utterly speechless and went to discuss with the organizing committee.
One minute later.
"Ladies and gentlemen, a slight accident has occurred on site. The first set of contestants have both forfeited. Therefore, the second set of contestants automatically advance to the semifinals!" The referee announced.
The audience members were all sweating.
Why did both contestants from the first set forfeit?
"Then let us proceed with the second match, contestant Jaco versus contestant Raditz!" The referee said loudly into the microphone.
Raditz and Jaco walked towards the ring.
"Mr. Jaco, the World Martial Arts Tournament does not permit the use of weapons. So, please put away the weapon on your person, or give it to your companion. Alternatively, our organizing committee can hold it for you!" The referee pointed at the energy gun hanging on Jaco's waist.
Jaco: "..."
"This is a gun defended by Galactic Patrolmen with their lives! I will absolutely not hand it over to anyone!" Jaco decisively refused.
