Chapter 201 Preliminary Rounds

After the trio appeared, they directly blocked the path of Goku and the others.

The old man wearing the white crane hat, who was at the head of the group, walked up to Master Roshi and looked down on him.

Master Roshi didn't hold back either, his old mouth as sweet as honey.

"Hmph, so who am I? It's the Crane Master. How come you're still alive?"

"Still the same as before, her mouth and appearance are just as awful."

Crane Immortal raised an eyebrow.

Then, the two of them started hurling insults at each other in a completely uncouth manner.

"In short, the championship is definitely my apprentice's. You'd better get out of here before you embarrass yourselves!"

After he finished cursing, Master Crane said a few words, raised his head, and led his two disciples past Master Turtle and the others toward the registration area.

As Tien Shinhan passed by Master Roshi and his group, he sensed the ki of Master Roshi's three disciples: Goku, Krillin, and Yamcha.

A disdainful smile immediately appeared on his face.

According to his perception, only Krillin's aura was slightly stronger, but at most it was about the same as Dumpling's.

That Yamcha's energy was much weaker, and as for the one with the long tail behind his butt, it was supposedly Goku, the runner-up from the previous competition, who turned out to be the worst.

It's easy to imagine how low the prestige of the previous World Martial Arts Tournament was.

"Hmph, not a single one of them can fight."

What he didn't know was that after three years of training in various worlds, Goku's control over ki had reached an extremely high level.

Moreover, due to the suppression of gravity magic, the energy within his body was even less likely to be revealed.

Therefore, according to Tien Shinhan's perception, Goku's ki was actually the lowest among the three.

"Who is that arrogant, strange old man?"

After Master Crane and his two disciples left, Yamcha asked Master Roshi somewhat angrily.

Whom do you look down on?

He still wants to win the championship; did he ask Yamcha?

"Master Crane, that annoying old man, ignore him, let's go eat!"

Master Roshi spat in Master Shen's direction and led the group toward the nearest restaurant.

After a hearty meal, they paid for the meal with the corner of the gold brick that Little Goku had given them, and then went to the hotel that the martial arts tournament had prepared for the participants and their companions.

"Wukong, tell me, what have you been through in these past three years, and how did you learn magic?"

Upon arriving at the hotel, everyone curiously gathered around Little Wukong.

Just as Little Goku was about to recount his fantastical three-year training journey, the old turtle suddenly interrupted.

"This is not fair to Young Master Wukong. Now that you know about Young Master Wukong's experiences, you will have a better understanding of his background and can prepare accordingly for the competition."

"Well, Old Turtle is right. The competition must be fair. After the competition, we can all have a good chat about what kind of training we've experienced over the past three years."

Master Roshi immediately put on a sanctimonious air and said...

Actually, he had just had a little scheme in mind, wanting to understand Goku's strength through Goku's training experience.

Otherwise, it would be quite embarrassing to be beaten up by one's own apprentice on stage.

Although his identity has not yet been exposed.

However, having been given such a small amount by the old turtle, he certainly couldn't continue asking questions.

"Of course, the competition must be fair, and we have had a lot of training experience over the past three years."

"Wukong, let's talk after the match."

Klin and Yamcha immediately patted their chests and assured each other, making it clear they wouldn't take advantage of the situation.

But deep down, I felt a little regretful.

They shared the same thought as Master Roshi; after all, Goku's training under ten times gravity at the registration desk had really frightened them.

They really couldn't imagine just how strong Goku was, being able to move freely under ten times gravity.

"I don't care."

Little Wukong scratched his head.

I've been through so much in these three years, and I've mastered so many techniques, I'm not worried about my strength being revealed.

"Let's play cards then! Even Wukong can draw cards!"

Bulma took out two decks of cards and threw them on the table.

So, everyone happily started smoking ghost cigarettes.

Finally, amidst laughter and cheers, the story ends with Master Roshi unfortunately drawing a demon.

After the entertainment, everyone went to two separate rooms to rest.

Bulma and Launch, the two girls, each had a single room, while Goku and all the other boys were grouped into one large room.

Master Roshi tried to sneak into Bulma and Launch's room with a blanket, but was kicked back after a good beating.

After everyone had washed up and lay in bed, Little Wukong fell asleep in three seconds.

However, instead of entering the white space as usual, he lay down on the bed and went to sleep like everyone else.

This is a little trick he learned after he gained control of the souls in Kamar-Taj.

Kamar-Taj's application to the soul, besides making the soul and body more closely connected and less susceptible to targeted attacks, also...

It can also, to a certain extent, allow the soul to actively leave the body and act.

For example, one can put the body into a sleep state while the soul leaves the body to study, thus allowing the body to get enough rest and having more time to study.

However, there are only a few mages in Kamar-Taj who can reach that level, and they must be extremely talented.

Even with the Ancient One's personal guidance, young Wukong, having only studied for a little over twenty days, was still unable to achieve the level of his soul actively leaving his body and moving freely.

However, it is still fine if only a small part of the soul remains somewhat conscious, while the majority of the soul and body enter a state of slumber.

However, as long as some souls remain conscious, they will not be sent into the white space.

At the same time, it can also serve as a warning while you are asleep.

Once ambushed, the conscious part of the soul will immediately detect it, and then the main body will quickly awaken to deal with it.

At midnight, when everyone was fast asleep, Klin and Yamcha quietly got up, put on their training uniforms, and left the hotel.

The competition is tomorrow, and they plan to hone their skills one last time before the match, even if they don't shine brightly, they'll at least make it a little better.

When they got downstairs, they found that they were not alone in thinking the same thing; everyone was making the most of every minute to train.

The following day, after having breakfast provided by the competition sponsors, Goku, along with Krillin and Yamcha, entered the venue.

Bulma and the others waited outside.

There will be a qualifying round before the official competition, and the qualifying round is not open to the public.

One hundred and eighty-six contestants from all over the world included traditional martial artists, masters of combat sports, and some naturally powerful intelligent beings.

They first need to determine the top eight in the preliminary rounds before they can step onto the official competition stage tomorrow.

In front of countless spectators and cameras, they competed against each other worldwide, ultimately giving rise to the world's number one master.

"The preliminary rounds are about to begin. All participants are requested to assemble at the martial arts hall."

The familiar voice of the host resounded throughout the venue through the loudspeakers.

"Go for it, Wukong!"

"Go for it, Yamcha!"

"Go for it, Krillin!"

Amid cheers from Bulma and the others who had climbed over the wall, Goku, Krillin, and Yamcha followed the crowd into the arena.
