Survival Arena

Chu Ge stood up and smiled, "Your words are too ambiguous."

The lynx's eyes turned cold, and she didn't respond.

She was still immersed in the shock of what had just happened.

Too fast!

This guy might be the fastest Survivor, next to the Golden Eagle!

Chu Ge continued to move forward, scanning the area ahead with his eyes.

He had already accumulated 500 Survival Points, which was a pretty good start!

It seems upgrading to Two Stars wasn't a loss, though the difficulty of survival increased, the benefits did too.

The lynx followed closely behind, also looking around, ready to strike at any moment.

She didn't just want to watch Chu Ge kill enemies, she also wanted to earn Survival Points.

At this point in time, the prompts for killing enemies were getting less and less.

Survivors were becoming more cautious, and most of them had already found good hiding spots.

Meanwhile, the incident with the Wild Dog spread on the Xuanjiang University forum, with someone having seen a Wild Dog being snatched into the sky by a Golden Eagle, which made the students think of the recent incident in Qingmei Park, sparking a lot of discussion.

"Tsk, tsk, is our Xuanjiang University going to become the next Qingmei Park?"

"That's too fake, who is so bored as to spread rumors? There are consequences for that!"

"It reminds me of the Lone Wolf legend that a senior told me about when I first enrolled. There's a Lone Wolf in the Botanic Garden targeting couples at night to scare."

"Is this true? Don't scare me."

"Won't the school do something about it?"

The influence of this issue grew bigger and bigger, and the president personally reviewed surveillance footage, and what he saw scared him.

"Lions... Black Bears... Wild Boars... Wild Dogs..."

The aging president trembled all over, even feeling as if the world was spinning.

So many animals appearing on campus, if anyone got hurt, his responsibility would be huge!

He roared at the school staff behind him, "What are you good for? So many animals have appeared, and you haven't seen them?"

The staff were in a panic, unsure of how to respond.

Elsewhere.

Chu Ge and the lynx were still hunting.

They had set their sights on a rabbit, and quickly caught it in their surrounding movement.

Chu Ge let the lynx make the kill.

The lynx took a deep look at him, then bit the rabbit to death.

Chu Ge gauged the strength of the lynx, who had no scent, sharp claws, and superior Physical Strength.

No wonder she was a veteran who had been through five Survival Competitions.

Equivalent to being a Survivor from the same period as Gao Fei.

"With so many Survivors, I always feel we might be exposed," Chu Ge said, looking into the distance.

Three days' time, if exposed on the first day, then their enemies would be more than just each other, but also humanity.

No animal, no matter how strong, could be a match for humans.

The lynx said calmly, "We're bound to be exposed. Otherwise, why would the mission time be three days? I suspect the Survival Arena wants humans to feel the rage of the animals, to cherish everything nature gives us. Without trade, there would be no killing."

Chu Ge was speechless and rolled his eyes at her. Was she watching too many ads or what?

"So, the key is how to avoid human capture and survive three days at Xuanjiang University?" Chu Ge pondered.

Xuanjiang University is large, but if humans decided to conduct a thorough search, the Survivors won't be able to hide.

Chu Ge was better off, having the Change Color Ability. With some brainwork, he might just be able to sneak by.

"When will we be able to compete in a primitive environment?" Chu Ge sighed.

All three Survival Competitions have been within human environments so far.

The lynx answered profoundly, "When you're able to go to the savannah, the jungle, the Deep Sea, you'll miss this place. Here, humans can become our weapon, but in nature, it's truly the survival of the fittest."

Chu Ge felt there was truth in her words; in the current environment, even the strongest Survivor might meet their downfall.

Rustle, rustle, rustle—

The bushes on the left suddenly started shaking.

Chu Ge and the lynx turned to look, only to see the Honey Badger Arno slowly crawling out.

Arno looked up at them, grinned, and charged directly at them.

Chu Ge's eyes turned cold, could a honey badger be stronger than a lion?

He fearlessly rushed forward to meet the charge.

First, he leaped over Arno's head, and upon landing, he swiped a paw towards Arno's back.

Smack!

Chu Ge felt as if his lion's paw had hit a stone, it was painfully sore!

Arno dashed towards the lynx.

The lynx was very agile, instantly jumping onto a nearby tree and rapidly climbing away from the ground with several swift kicks.

Having lost his target, Arno turned around and charged at Chu Ge once again.

This time, Chu Ge bent his forelimbs and lowered his head to take on Arno head-on.

He had undergone muscle strengthening and could withstand Arno's impact.

Using his size to suppress Arno, Chu Ge relentlessly bit and chewed at Arno's body.

The strength of this honey badger, Arno, was surprisingly great, making Chu Ge feel as though he was pressing down on a wild boar.

He wanted to bite onto Arno's head, but the creature fiercely struggled, refusing to let him get a hold.

Soon, Arno suddenly pushed Chu Ge off, swiftly got up, turned around, and bared his teeth, roaring at Chu Ge.

He exhibited the honey badger's ferocity and desire for battle to the fullest extent.

Chu Ge was reminded of the pitbull he had encountered before when he looked at him.

Unlike the pitbull, this one was silent, appearing very cool and detached.

Chu Ge could see the murderous intent in his eyes and consequently, he didn't bother with idle talk.

Both men growled lowly and charged at each other simultaneously.

Atop the tree, the lynx crouched, looking down at the fight below and murmured, "The battle between the African Big Brother and Third Brother."

In Africa, honey badgers are extremely aggressive and will fight anyone.

They can occasionally kill a solitary, injured lion, but most of the time they are eaten by lions.

Because of the great discrepancy in size, they rarely pose a threat.

Nonetheless, this honey badger had other survival skills, making him stronger than an average honey badger.

Chu Ge found himself a tough opponent and, despite his muscle strengthening, was battered and in severe pain from the impacts.

Arno, without uttering a sound, displayed vigorous fighting spirit, seeming almost as if he didn't know pain.

After a long struggle, Chu Ge was bitten and wounded all over, while Arno was covered in blood on his head, looking very pitiful.

"If you continue to fight, I'll just reap the benefits," said the lynx suddenly, making Chu Ge and Arno instantly leap apart.

Chu Ge panted, his gaze icy cold.

Even with such a size difference, he couldn't kill his opponent.

Two-Star competitions are indeed terrifying.

Arno spoke in a heavy voice, "How many survival competitions have you been through?"

Chu Ge snorted, "This is my third time."

Arno: "..."

Lynx: "..."

Finally, Chu Ge felt relieved inside, as he was also quite frustrated. He had exchanged for Lv3 muscle strengthening, thinking he could run rampant in the Survival Arena, yet here he was struggling against a honey badger.

The lynx could see Chu Ge lacked experience, but never expected this to be only his third survival mission.

This...

Arno grumbled, "This… is just absurd!"

He had thought he had encountered a skilled opponent, but...

Chu Ge's eyes flickered, seizing the opportunity to propose, "How about the three of us join forces to take down the Black Blind?"

Defeating the strongest would benefit them all!

Yet why did this situation seem somewhat similar to last time in Qingmei Park?

"I despise it!"

With that, Arno threw down the words and fled, quickly disappearing into the underbrush.
