Survival Arena

In the endless darkness,

Chu Ge's consciousness gradually revived.

He could not open his eyes, with inexplicable pain assaulting his soul.

He felt his body being torn apart, as if it was being ceaselessly shredded in a meat grinder.

Under such excruciating pain, he could not even scream to vent it.

He could only silently endure.

His memory began to return.

He remembered everything that happened before he lapsed into unconsciousness.

"Am I now... dead... or in the Survival Arena..."

He thought confusedly, since he had been reborn once before.

He still retained the memories of his past life, so he believed in reincarnation.

After death, the soul leaves the body.

Unable to sense his body, and only able to feel pain, could it be that his soul had left his body and was enduring torment?

Unclear about his situation, he could only tolerate the agony.

Such pain wasn't enough to make him collapse, after all, he had experienced all kinds of pain before.

Time continued to pass.

Who knows how much time had gone by.

Perhaps a few minutes.

Perhaps several decades.

All of a sudden, a cold, indifferent female voice came:

"Due to the four substances in your body that do not belong to your original genes, your genes have undergone a transformation!"

"Detection of heretic suspicion, within the next two months, you must choose a time to undertake Vengeful Ghost's Revenge, failure to complete the task will result in the Survival Arena abandoning you, reducing you to an animal; if you succeed, you will be qualified to become an Adjudicator!"

"An Adjudicator, a status superior to that of a Survivor, with special privileges!"

Chu Ge was stunned.

Adjudicator!

It sounded very impressive, but before that, he had to go through Vengeful Ghost's Revenge...

The price of failure was too great!

"You have awakened a Survival Talent—Soul-Confusing Roar!"

"Soul-Confusing Roar, capable of using sound to disturb the minds of enemies, causing them to become mentally disordered!"

Another Survival Talent!

Chu Ge was thrilled.

Wasn't this Survival Talent exactly what he had endured before?

Finally, the bitterness had turned to sweetness!

"Begin the settlement of Survival Points earned in the city survival battle!"

"For successfully clearing the stage, you gain 200 Survival Points."

"For cumulative kills, you gain 11,200 Survival Points."

"[Suicide] earns a total of 3,000 Survival Points for wiping out the enemy team."

"Because two members of [Suicide] have survived till the end, the full team's Survival Points are boosted by 0.2 times!"

"Due to suspicion of heresy, 5,000 Survival Points are deducted as punishment!"

"Your total accumulated Survival Points is 12,280!"

With a series of prompts, Chu Ge's pain quickly diminished.

Then he felt dizzy.

A few seconds later,

he heard the excited shouts of Ye Wukong and Nangong.

As he opened his eyes, he found himself back at the Team Cultivation Hall.

Inside the hall, Ye Wukong, Nangong, Arno, General Lie Hao, and Xiao Poor Thing immediately rushed over.

They surrounded Chu Ge, bombarding him with questions.

"Boss, you've finally come back."

"Team leader, what exactly happened?"

"You almost scared us to death, we thought you were going to stay in Tokyo forever."

"Hahaha, I knew our boss would definitely come back."

Faced with everyone's concern, Chu Ge felt warmth in his heart.

He spoke up, "Wait until everyone is here, then I'll explain everything at once."

This time what had happened was too bizarre, even his own heart was a bit chaotic.

No one objected, and after dealing with them briefly, Chu Ge went back to his Survival House and then returned to reality.

He took out his phone and first called Chu Yingying.

"Hello, sister, what's the number for Tong Lianshi?"

"It's nothing, I just have something to ask her."

"What's wrong with hitting on her? Isn't it good for her to be closer to you?"

"What, I'm your brother, and you're saying I'm not good enough for her!"

After entangling with Chu Yingying for half a day, Chu Ge finally got Tong Lianshi's phone number.

He continued to call Tong Lianshi.

The first call wasn't successful. Explore hidden tales at My Virtual Library Empire

He kept dialing.

Finally, on the fourth attempt, the other side picked up.

"Hello?"

Tong Lianshi's voice came through, and Chu Ge revealed a smile.

The woman's voice wasn't as sweet as before.

It looked like she was about to be exposed!

"Hurry back from Tokyo, and remember to attend the meeting tonight!"

After speaking, Chu Ge immediately hung up, not giving Tong Lianshi a chance to reply.

He had suspected Tong Lianshi was Gu Tianjiao before, but couldn't be sure, because their voices were quite different.

However, when he was in Tokyo earlier, Gu Tianjiao had called out to him when he was mentally distressed and had blurted out his real name.

He had warned Nangong and Local Snake not to reveal his real name to anyone.

From this reasoning.

There was only one truth.

Gu Tianjiao was Tong Lianshi!

No wonder Tong Lianshi always teased him.

And Gu Tianjiao always said he liked to flirt around.

This stinky woman was playing him!

Chu Ge put down his phone, laughing happily.

He wasn't angry; instead, he felt somewhat touched.

The time Tong Lianshi had appeared was precisely when King Kuihu targeted him; it seemed she had come to protect him.

Chu Ge suddenly felt an urge inside him.

He wanted to confess to Gu Tianjiao, to be with her.

This urge had come about when he had almost mistakenly killed her before.

Aside from his mother, there wouldn't be a second woman in the world who would risk so much for him.

Chu Ge lay on the bed to rest.

It was now five in the afternoon, and the voices of Local Snake and Nangong could be heard from outside.

The two were arguing over who had made the greater contribution.

In this city Survival Competition, no one was more glorious than Xiao Poor Thing; with one swoop, she had reaped twenty thousand Survival Points, making Arno and Xiao Hero feel somewhat imbalanced in their hearts.

But regardless, Xiao Poor Thing had helped them earn quite a lot of Survival Points.

The team wipe was largely thanks to Xiao Poor Thing.

Gradually, Chu Ge dozed off without realizing it.

When he woke up again, it was already eleven at night.

He went to the Team Cultivation Hall, where all the members were present.

Gu Tianjiao, Arno, Xiao Poor Thing, Nangong, Ye Wukong, General Lie Hao, Local Snake, and Xiao Hero all gathered around him.

Curiosity filled everyone's eyes.

They were eager to know what Chu Ge had gone through.

Chu Ge looked at Gu Tianjiao; they exchanged smiles.

Seeing her smile, Chu Ge's heart warmed.

It was like falling in love for the first time.

Everyone gathered, and Chu Ge recounted the events he had experienced.

He didn't even hide the matter with the Adjudicator, because he wasn't sure what an Adjudicator was.

After he finished speaking, everyone was flabbergasted.

They didn't expect Chu Ge's experiences to be so perilous.

"Adjudicator, it sounds familiar," Xiao Hero suddenly said.

This drew everyone's attention to him.

Nangong laughed, "Could it be an existence that judges the Survivors? If that's the case, that would be amazing!"

Arno said, "I'm more curious about the Survival Talent you gained, can you show us?"

The others nodded enthusiastically, all wanting to see.

Chu Ge smiled, then suddenly roared aloud.

"Roar—"

Everyone was startled, feeling as if a bomb had exploded next to their ears.

Chu Ge's roar left them disoriented, with Xiao Poor Thing and Local Snake collapsing to the ground.

The others staggered, near to falling over.
