previously "Indeed it is. In a couple days, you will be in there fighting a couple of the strongest females we have to prove yourself. The arena is not for the faint of heart as you will soon find out." He takes her to the palace and helps her to get settled in for the night.
Pre-testing commences
It had been 2 days since Bulma arrived on Vegeta-sei and everything had been pretty much the same. She had been eating dinner with the King and Prince each day at the same time, attending classes of some sort with several other girls to learn how to properly act in public, and had been given a wardrobe she could only have ever dreamed of with silks and satins composing the main part of the outfits. She was summoned down to supper a short while later and was asked to wear one of the formal dresses. She slips on an emerald green dress and some matching green beads and some soft shoes then heads downstairs for supper. Several saiyan girls who were dressed up as well join her as she heads down. They all look at her and snear in distaste. Several minutes later they enter the dining hall and wait till they were seated by the various people meant for that purpose. Alot of the slaves back away from the girls. Several of them were severely beaten and looked too small for the clothes they were in. Some looked too frail to even be standing let alone be doing any manual labor. Bulma kinda felt sorry for them even though there was nothing she could currently do for them.
The King stands up and looks at the group of 10 girls before him. "Starting tommorrow morning, each of you girls will perform a series of pre-tests to determine which tests will be too easy for you or which ones will pose a challenge. The human woman, Bulma, will automatically be assigned in the endurance and stamina tests since she isn't even Saiyan." Several slight giggles from the other girls could be heard at that. They quiet immediately when a growl comes from the King. "Just because she is human does not mean that she is to be underestimated. She showed some courage coming here like she did. Her knowledge of our customs and rules too is to be taken into account though I'm sure Vegeta told her about all that. The idea that she listened though is of major importance. It's way more than you other girls have done in the last 2 days." The girls keep their mouths shut on that since they knew he was right. They hadn't been listening at all. In the last 2 days, they had been intent on harrassing the Earth woman instead of paying attention to the lessons.
After supper that night, the pre-tests started. Most of them were pretty straight forward consisting of beauty, body shape, cleanliness, muscle tone, strength, speed, and mental abilities. The mental abilities mainly were as far as how smart the girls were. Most of them had the beauty thing nailed but the brains department was severely lacking. Bulma was the only one who excelled in that department. That situation shocked the King quite a bit. He seriously didn't want an Earth woman to be Queen of Vegeta-sei so he decided it was better to play sneaky. He was the only person on the planet that was allowed to have a harem, and he used that to his advantage. Any woman who dared think they could become Queen and stood a chance, he took them into the harem. Anyone going into the harem were never the same again. They came to the King to be talked to, they went to get some kind of medical exam, then they went to him. What nobody knew is that whoever joined the harem had a total brain scramble. The brain literally was turned to mush and unable to form any coherant thoughts or functions other that normal bodily movements. Anyone that was done to also lost the ability to speak.
The King growls a moment really low so nobody could hear him. Very soon, that Earth woman won't be able to be Queen. She shall be part of the harem and then Vegeta will have to choose a mate more suited to him. He won't be allowed to undermind me any longer. I will not have some alien woman messing up what I have worked so hard to achieve. This kingdom will be totally different if she rules it. She'll more than likely set those slaves free or give them an option in what they would like to do. Either way its totally weak and I won't have it. He stands up and looks down at the gardens from the window which wasnt much more than a group of trees and some weird bush like plants. The girls were all being shown the various plants out there and being told how certain parts of the plants could be used for medicines and other things. Very soon woman, and you won't be in the picture any more. The tests begin tommorrow and I WILL ruin you.
