There's a reason people were surprised Kirkman wasn't familer with Dragonball. Viltrumites have a lot in common with sayians.

Yeah, I’d imagine it was more of a spectacle for everyone on the planet. To show even their mightiest genetically engineered warrior is no match for them. And to show how merciful they can be, they allowed him to live. As well as show they don’t fear him, by letting him live.
