Instead of storing audio files in the assets, if it's stored in the database, will the space usage reduce?

it's related to android app development

Probably not because you should only be using audio that has already been compressed (like mp3 and not wav). A database might do compression on the data but almost always this will result in a larger overall size since you can't really compress a well compressed object. Further, the database will have to add a bunch of book keeping data and access time will be slow.
