Survival Arena

After explaining to Han Yujuan for half a day, Chu Ge finally wasn't required to go to the hospital for a check-up, and he returned to his room to rest.

Despite not having slept all night, his mental state was still very good, even to the point of being excited.

It might be because the survival ability of Cheetah Speed infused him with an abundance of energy.

Now, he was already beginning to contemplate his next Survival Challenge Task.

This entire morning, he had been searching online for encyclopedic information on various animals.

He felt it necessary to watch some animal documentaries every day from now on.

He had always liked small animals, so he thoroughly enjoyed watching these without any signs of boredom.

At noon, Tang Xuejia suddenly contacted him on the messaging app Idealism.

Tang Xuejia: Classmate Chu, Song Xiaoyu and I are representing our class to visit you this afternoon. Are you at the hospital, or at home? (smiling emoji)

Chu Ge: No need, I'm already better, thank you. (clasped hands emoji)

Tang Xuejia: It's okay, we're just coming to visit you. We won't disturb you much. If it's really not a good time, we'll just leave you a fruit basket and leave. (laughing emoji)

Chu Ge: Really, there's no need. I'm about to call the teacher and tell him I'm all better and can go to school anytime. (striving emoji)

Tang Xuejia: Classmate Chu really loves to study!

...

Chu Ge looked at the conversation on his phone screen, his lips curving upwards.

Wanting to go to the comic convention?

Dream on!

Telling me to turn off the lights!

Telling me to keep a cat!

I insist you study hard!

After ending the chat awkwardly yet politely, Chu Ge continued browsing the internet.

During this time, his older sister Chu Yingying called to check on him.

Chu Yingying was in her second year of university, and because of Chu Ge's disappearance, she had hurriedly bought a ticket to go home last night. But since the school term had just started, Han Yujuan had already asked her to cancel it.

The entire day, Chu Ge didn't go to school and stayed at home obediently.

After his rebirth, he didn't wander about; whenever he had the opportunity, he would enter the Primary Training Hall within the Survival Arena, earnestly enhancing his lion's abilities, while getting to understand the Survival Arena.

The Survival Arena had many marvelous things. Aside from survival skills, there were various potions that could enhance all aspects of one's physical attributes, including intelligence, as well as language and knowledge potions. After taking them, one could directly master other languages and knowledge.

Chu Ge became increasingly interested in the Survival Arena.

In the new week, he honestly returned to school for classes. At school, he didn't act out of turn, nor did he flirt with the class belle or suppress the top students as in novels. Instead, he attended classes with earnestness.

He wanted to make up for regrets from his past life.

In his previous life, his academic performance was below average, and he failed to get into a good university for the college entrance examination, which saddened his parents for a while.

The belief that education is useless is prevalent among many young people nowadays, but once you truly enter society, you realize the importance of a diploma. Of course, there are also many examples of people with low educational backgrounds who stand out. After all, there's nothing absolute in this world.

Although Chu Ge was confident he could make money in the future, he also wished to fill the void left by the college entrance examination and make his parents proud of him.

During class, he noticed a female classmate frequently glancing at him with a somewhat angry look in her eyes.

He carefully recalled, and the girl's name came to mind.

Song Xiaoyu!

The best friend of Tang Xuejia.

It was her who invited Tang Xuejia to the comic convention.

Chu Ge found it amusing inside and ignored her gaze, focusing on the lecture.

In the end, Song Xiaoyu was still a young girl, her resentment came quickly and dissipated just as quickly. She and Tang Xuejia didn't settle any score with Chu Ge, nor did this lead to them getting familiar with him. They remained ordinary classmates with very little interaction.

...

Time flew by.

Over half a month had passed.

Inside the Primary Training Hall.

A young lion was sprinting around the small field, and it was Chu Ge.

His body was covered in sweat, twisting his fur into individual wet tips, but his eyes remained determined.

During this time, he had often thought about slacking off, but whenever he remembered those cockroaches and centipedes that had died horribly, he would shiver with fear.

He didn't want to be scared any longer!

After running for a long time, he collapsed onto the ground, gasping for air.

He murmured, "Check my Attribute Panel."

As the voice faded away, a screen of light appeared before his eyes:

Survivor: Chuge Siqi

Star Rank: One Star

Biting Force: 10

Forelimb Strength: 31

Hind Limb Strength: 42

Speed: 123

Physical Strength: 35

Survival Entity: African Lion

Survival Skills: Body Color Change, Cheetah Speed

Survival Equipment: None

Survival Team: None

Survival Points: 0

...

Not too shabby!

Chu Ge was quite satisfied with his growth, especially considering his speed, which had surpassed that of most humans—only world champions could compete with him.

After resting for a bit, he logged out of the Primary Training Hall and returned to the real world.

It was now four o'clock in the afternoon; his parents were out visiting relatives, leaving him alone at home.

He got up, took a set of clothes from the wardrobe, and then went out to the bathroom to take a shower.

Half an hour later, he comfortably sat down on the living room sofa.

The continuous improvement in the lion's physical condition had also enhanced Chu Ge's human body; he had tested and found that he could run a hundred meters in a record time of 9.79 seconds in his human form.

This speed was enough for him to compete in the Olympics.

But thinking of those survival skills, Chu Ge felt it still wasn't enough.

His future enemies would not be ordinary people, but powerful survivors.

Suddenly, he remembered Gao Fei.

In the latter half of the Survival Trial, that guy had repeated his cell phone number dozens of times, ensuring that Chu Ge remembered it, even though he hadn't wanted to.

He had been considering whether or not to contact Gao Fei; it was easy to judge appearances but hard to see what was in the heart. What if Gao Fei found him in real life and endangered his family?

But upon further thought, he couldn't see any reason why Gao Fei would do such a thing.

After hesitating for a while, Chu Ge picked up his cell phone and dialed Gao Fei's number.

About seven seconds passed before the other party answered the call.

"Who's this? If you're a telemarketer, I'll have you know I'll curse you out, honey!"

Gao Fei's carefree voice came through, leaving Chu Ge speechless.

He immediately clarified his identity, and upon hearing it, Gao Fei became ecstatic.

"Chu Brother, you've finally contacted me. I'm so touched—you're the first Survivor to reach out to me!"

Gao Fei's voice was very excited, even trembling a little.

Chu Ge suddenly felt a bit regretful; it seemed he was perhaps a bit too naive compared to other Survivors—he wasn't cautious and composed enough!

"You've awakened your Survival Entity, right? What is it?" Gao Fei asked curiously.

Chu Ge replied, "African Lion."

"Heh."

"Hmm?"

"Trying to bluff me, newbie. A Survivor who can awaken the lion as a survival entity is one in a hundred."

"Alright, I'm an orange cat."

"An orange cat? Not bad, still better than my parrot—oh wait, I can fly and you can't. My chances of survival are still higher than yours, hahaha!"

Chu Ge chuckled to himself. Little brother, I'm actually your big brother—the lion you can't believe in!

Afterwards, he steered the conversation towards the Survival Challenge Task.

In the real world, he could talk with other Survivors about the Survival Arena, as long as no one else overheard them.

At the moment, Gao Fei was worrying about the next Survival Challenge Task.

Failing in the Survival Trial meant he had one fewer accumulation of Survival Competition experience than other Survivors of the same period, which made him somewhat anxious.
