Survival Arena

The wild boar was pinned down by Chu Ge, struggling vigorously, but Chu Ge exerted all his strength and still couldn't hold it down.

Such great strength!

Chu Ge was secretly alarmed, with so many people watching, he dared not use the geothermal heat.

An African lion that could heat up to turn red would definitely attract human attention.

He didn't want to end up in a laboratory.

Forget it!

Let's fight it out!

Chu Ge wasn't limited to just one survival talent.

He imagined himself furiously, causing his anger to surge.

He thought about how he would die, become a vengeful ghost, and how others, who faced death with equanimity, were chased by King Kuihu because of him.

This was no longer anger, but fury!

His strength reached an unprecedented level, forcefully flipping the wild boar over.

He bit hard into the neck of the wild boar.

"How the hell are you so strong?"

The wild boar cursed angrily, encountering a survivor with greater strength than itself for the first time, it struggled desperately but couldn't fend off Chu Ge.

Feeling the sharp pain on its neck, it grew even angrier.

"You stinking lion! You can't kill me!"

The wild boar continued to curse, its skin and flesh had been enhanced along with its strength.

In the Survival Arena, defensive power was the choice of the vast majority of survivors.

Indestructible, unafraid of pain, these were believed by the survivors to be the most suitable survival skills for the Survival Arena.

After all, not everyone had the courage to risk their lives in battle.

Suddenly, Chu Ge used the geothermal heat, concentrating the heat in his body around his teeth.

Thunk!

His teeth pierced through the wild boar's skin and flesh, and fresh blood followed, coursing into his throat.

Unknowingly, he started to find the taste of blood so sweet.

"Aaah— it's so hot! You beast..."

The wild boar struggled frantically, as if it had been scalded by boiling water.

Chu Ge showed no mercy.

He kept increasing his force.

After about a dozen seconds.

"You have successfully hunted an enemy, earning 200 survival points."

"As this survivor has already killed four enemies, you gain an additional 400 survival points."

Chu Ge released his bite, shaking his body to relax his tense muscles.

This battle had required his full effort, and it was truly exhausting.

The people outside the forest were watching with wide eyes.

What did they see?

A several hundred kilogram wild boar being held down and beaten to death by an African lion?

What a joke!

"The saying goes... first pig, second bear, third tiger?" a female reporter stammered.

It was too brutal!

She knew lions were powerful, but she never imagined one could be this terrifying.

If that lion had been on top of a person...

She shuddered and dared not think further.

The Special Warfare Team Leader furrowed his brows, approached Tang Qiusheng, and asked, "Should we tranquilize it, just in case it hurts someone?"

Tang Qiusheng glanced at him and said, "Do you know what humans hate most?"

"What is it?"

"You're being self-righteous. You feel sorry for that wild boar, thinking the lion killing it is bad, and that it might even harm people. But have you thought about it? If the lion isn't strong enough, it might be the one to die."

"Then just tranquilize the wild boar as well, that would be fairer."

"Think about it, if humans were to start World War III, and more powerful aliens arrived, with us being the lions, foreigners as the wild boars, and the aliens thinking like you do, what would you, as the lion, feel?"

The Special Warfare Team Leader fell silent, Tang Qiusheng's words plunging him into deep thought.

"Human compassion isn't so despicable. We should feel sympathy depending on the situation. The animal world isn't as complex and cunning as the human world. For them, there's no right or wrong, only hunger." Tang Qiusheng let out a ring of smoke, and said wistfully.

The Special Warfare Team Leader nodded heavily, then asked hesitantly, "I understand the reasoning. I just want to ask, you've smoked three packs this afternoon, aren't you afraid of dying?"

"Cough cough..."

Tang Qiusheng started to choke, exasperated by his question.

Elsewhere.

Chu Ge retreated to Gu Tianjiao's side, beginning to rest.

He didn't dare to keep fighting consecutively. If he exhausted his physical strength, King Kuihu would definitely seize the opportunity to move.

Gu Tianjiao shook her head and said, "You're too hasty. Look back – King Kuihu is watching you."

Upon hearing that, Chu Ge turned to look and indeed, King Kuihu, who was on the Skywalk, was looking at him with predatory intensity.

Even a few hundred meters away, Chu Ge could feel the gaze of King Kuihu on him.

This guy...

A fierce light flickered in Chu Ge's eyes, his anger rising again.

"You're too hot-headed, you need to restrain yourself." Gu Tianjiao nudged Chu Ge with her head and said with a teasing smirk.

Chu Ge had no interest in sparring words with her, his gaze locked on the silhouette of King Kuihu.

...

In Nanluo City.

Chu Yingying, Chu Feiqiang, and Han Yujuan were having dinner at the dining table.

"Oh, look, there's a follow-up on the animal incident at Huashan, a 'Beast King' rivalry?"

Chu Yingying suddenly brightened, putting down her chopsticks and quickly scrolling through her smartphone.

While ladling soup, Chu Feiqiang said with a chuckle, "Beast King rivalry? Is there any animal on Mount Hua that could beat a Northeast Tiger?"

News from Huashan had the middle-aged folks buzzing, as they too had seen the reports.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Isn't there supposed to be a lion on Mount Hua? Lions are more formidable than tigers," Han Yujuan laughed.

Chu Feiqiang gave her a look and said, "Woman's talk. Even the largest male lion in the world can't beat a Northeast Tiger! The Northeast Tiger is the strongest member of the cat family."

"Really? In the game of Jungle Chess, a lion can capture a tiger," Han Yujuan said, somewhat unconvinced. In her mind, shouldn't the lion be more powerful?

"Silly woman, in Jungle Chess, an elephant can capture a lion too. Have you ever seen an elephant eat meat?" Chu Feiqiang scoffed, not fearing a midlife marital crisis.

Han Yujuan pouted and said, "So what if they eat meat? Can't elephants eat meat?"

Just then.

Chu Yingying suddenly lifted her phone in excitement and said, "Look, does this lion look like the Ares I recommended to you guys? Its muscles and hunting gaze are exactly the same!"

The phone screen showed a photo of Chu Ge right after he had killed a large wild boar and raised his head.

Grim!

Ferocious!

Upon a closer look, Chu Feiqiang and Han Yujuan found it really did bear resemblance.

"It doesn't make sense. Ares traveling from Africa to Mount Hua? Did it get a passport?" Chu Feiqiang questioned doubtfully.

Han Yujuan rolled her eyes at him and looked towards Chu Yingying's phone screen.

She asked curiously, "It does look like Ares. Could he have been abducted?"

Chu Yingying suddenly stood up from the table, bursting with excitement, "Mom! I want to go to Mount Hua!"

"Nonsense!"

Chu Feiqiang and Han Yujuan said in unison.

Chu Yingying immediately looked wronged and said, "You know, Ares looks just like the lion that saved me. Although their sizes are completely different, they might be related by blood. If it ends up fighting the Northeast Tiger and gets injured or dies, I'll never see my benefactor again."

Han Yujuan replied helplessly, "Can a lion be considered a benefactor? Besides, it's too dangerous. Just watch the news at home."

"Exactly, do you think you could help it? You're not even enough to plug a Northeast Tiger's teeth." Chu Feiqiang nodded, this time very seriously, having no intention of indulging Chu Yingying.
