...

Looking at his own attribute panel, Chu Ge's gaze locked onto the 'Awakenable' part right after Survival Entity.

"How do I awaken?"

He muttered to himself, a puzzled look on his face.

As his words fell, a burst of intense light suddenly struck him.

That mysterious and icy female voice sounded again:

"Survivor begins awakening the Survival Entity."

"Since the survivor has been chosen by another survivor, the bloodline of the other's Survival Entity will be inherited."

...

Chu Ge suddenly felt a severe pain in his body, and he instinctively clutched his belly, then writhed and convulsed uncontrollably on the couch.

In the midst of the light, his figure began to transform.

"You have successfully awakened as an African Male Lion."

The detached female voice followed, and Chu Ge's pain receded like a tide.

African Male Lion!

Chu Ge was shocked. How did he become an African Male Lion?

He thought of the black cat that had bitten him.

Could it be a Survivor too?

But wasn't it a cat?

At this moment, Chu Ge was utterly bewildered.

The bright light dissipated, and a young lion appeared on the couch.

This cub had light yellow fur, with browner hair on its head and neck and some black hairs on its body, no longer than thirty centimeters, much like a small domestic cat.

It was Chu Ge.

He gazed at his own lion paws, dazed, unable to snap back to reality for a long time.

Had he become the lion that Gao Fei envied?

A vast surprise enveloped his heart.

His heart started to beat faster as he sat blankly on the couch.

"Please name yourself, Survivor!"

The cold female voice rang out, interrupting his thoughts.

He instantly snapped back to reality.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Chuge Siqi."

He would use this name to remind himself never to take things lightly.

Although he had survived the Survival Trial unscathed, it was mostly due to luck.

As a cub, he wouldn't be as inconspicuous as a tiny ant anymore.

Immediately, the attribute panel on the screen changed:

Survivor: Chuge Siqi

Star Rank: One Star

Biting Force: 2

Forelimb Strength: 8

Hind Limb Strength: 9

Speed: 3

Physical Strength: 5

Survival Entity: African Male Lion

Survival Skills: Body Color Change

Survival Equipment: None

Survival Team: None

Survival Points: 1100

...

Chu Ge was overjoyed at the sight of the words 'African Male Lion.' Once he grew into an adult male lion, he would undoubtedly be a boss in the Survival Arena.

However, he remembered Gao Fei mentioning that there could be dinosaurs around.

He was not worried. Aside from the Survival Entity, the Survival Skills are even more important, like that Rat Woman—so showy!

He examined his attribute panel in detail and started to analyze.

What concept is a biting force of 2 points?

Lions do not have the strongest biting force; at least compared to hyenas, tigers, crocodiles, and hippopotamuses, they are weaker.

Unlike tigers, lions can become the kings of the savannah by relying on team combat.

Male lions appear mighty, but after years of lethargy, their bodies are somewhat less robust compared to other fierce animals of the same size.

However, he could become a male lion that exercises frequently.

"How do I now transform into a human form? And how do I exit the Survival Arena?"

Chu Ge was curious, and as soon as this thought emerged, a stream of memories flooded into his mind.

At the same time, a strange heat flowed within him.

After a while.

He opened his eyes again, feeling overwhelmed with emotions.

Now, by channeling the strange source of heat into his bloodstream, he could transform into a human form at any time.

Furthermore!

He could also turn into a lion in reality.

The method was the same; he had to expel the strange heat from the bloodstream.

He could control the strange source of heat effortlessly, as if it were an extension of his body.

As for how to exit the Survival Arena, it was simple, just think it quietly in your mind three times, and you could exit; the same was true for entering from reality.

Free entry and exit had to be during a period without missions.

This Survival House was his exclusive room, and without his permission, no one could enter.

After understanding this, Chu Ge said, "I want to see the list of Survival Skills available for exchange."

As his words fell, the light screen in front of him suddenly changed.

A list of Survival Skills appeared, so many that he was dazzled.

Survival Skills were divided by Star Level, and for now, he could only see up to Five Stars.

For instance:

Biting Force Enhancement [Lv5]: Can increase biting force by 6000 points, requires 13000 Survival Points.

Speed Enhancement [Lv5]: Can strengthen one's own speed by 6000 points, requires 14900 Survival Points.

Lethal Venom [Lv5]: Can poison most creatures below Six Stars, requires 13999 Survival Points.

Muscle Ironing [Lv5]: Harden muscles to the strength of steel, requires 12999 Survival Points.

...

Chu Ge almost drooled at the sight, knowing that these Survival Skills would also transfer to his human form.

He currently did not understand what the point values here were based on.

1100 Survival Points could be exchanged for lower, Lv3 Survival Skills.

For a young lion, enhanced strength would not be that impressive.

Therefore, he focused his attention on Physical Strength and Speed.

Being able to run fast and for long was crucial for survival.

He calculated that most Survivors who went through the Survival Trial probably only had about a hundred Survival Points; very few had a thousand like him, otherwise, why would the Initial Trial Scroll exist?

That meant other Survivors of the same period could probably only exchange for Level 1 or Level 2 Survival Skills.

He could exchange for two Level 2 or one Level 3 Survival Skills.

The missions of the Survival Arena should be based on the same period of entry; otherwise, there would be no fairness. Wouldn't newbies be doomed if they met veterans who had gone through several missions?

Just like this Survival Trial, the Rat Woman stood out from the rest.

However, the presence of a veteran like her was due to the Initial Trial Scroll. Even so, the veterans' strength was limited to One Star.

With this in mind, Lv3 Speed would make him as swift as lightning in the next Survival Competition!

Chu Ge made his decision.

He wanted to become a young lion that could run fast and change color!

Just the thought was exhilarating!

He did not make his decision hastily but continued to look through the Survival Skills.

The strange and varied Survival Skills amazed him.

The jumping ability of frogs, the Lifting Strength of rhinoceros beetles, the Vision of eagles, the Physical Twisting Force of pythons, the Vitality of cockroaches, and so on.

Survivors' strength, aside from specific Attributes and Star Rank, how they were categorized, Chu Ge temporarily did not have the permission to know.

After nearly half an hour.

Chu Ge selected [Lv3] Cheetah Speed.

It required 1000 Survival Points and would grant him the speed of an adult cheetah.

The top speed could reach 110 to 120 kilometers per hour, equivalent to running a hundred meters in just four seconds, or even faster!

Such speed would give him a sense of security.

When he chose to confirm the exchange, a beam of white light descended from the sky and shone on him.

This time, he did not feel any pain, instead, it was quite warm.

About a minute passed.

The white light dissipated, and he felt as if he was brimming with power.

To maintain high speed, a certain degree of physical strength was necessary, so all his data saw improvements.
