Survival Arena

The morning air in Shennongjia is fresh and refreshing.

Chu Ge followed the river unhurriedly, still able to lock onto the scent of the sika deer without any panic.

From yesterday until now, he hadn't encountered any human traces; it seemed this area was uninhabited.

The uninhabited areas of Shennongjia might hide wild beasts, maybe even tigers.

Along the way, he encountered more and more wildlife.

He couldn't help but speculate, was the lack of animals in yesterday's area related to that black shadow?

After all, a wild man bears the character for "human".

In nature, only humans can truly frighten all species into not appearing.

This morning, Chu Ge hadn't come across other survivors, nor had he encountered any large predators.

Noon time.

He stopped to rest on a hillside, when suddenly a black shadow jumped out from the nearby woods.

He fixed his gaze.

It was the chimpanzee that had landed with him.

This chimpanzee was strong, but it wasn't quite Vajra-strong.

As soon as it saw Chu Ge, it paused.

After hesitating for a moment, it still approached.

"Brother Lion, good afternoon, how's your hunting going?"

The chimpanzee grinned, revealing its gums and a row of yellow teeth.

Chu Ge replied, "It's passable."

He was considering whether or not to kill this guy.

The chimpanzee's eyes darted around, moving closer as it said, "Brother, let's join forces, we'd be invincible!"

Join forces?

Chu Ge looked at him with disdain, his eyes questioning his worthiness.

"Don't judge me by my size, I know kung fu."

The chimpanzee continued, and after speaking, it even posed to demonstrate a martial arts stance.

Chu Ge wanted to laugh, asking, "What kind of kung fu do you know?"

The chimpanzee chuckled, "Wing Chun Kung Fu."

"Oh? Can you take on ten?"

"If they're the same size, I can take on three or four no problem."

"Show me a set."

At Chu Ge's request, the chimpanzee began to demonstrate its Wing Chun.

A chimpanzee performing Wing Chun looked adequately skilled, but Chu Ge found it amusing.

It was too comical.

Wing Chun isn't as visually appealing as other martial arts because it focuses on quickly taking down an enemy, integrating defense and attack, but its value in real combat is still very high, and it is even included in some police academy curricula.

After the chimpanzee had performed a set of Wing Chun, it asked, "Brother, what do you think?"

Chu Ge shook his head, "I can't feel its real effect, attack me."/p>

Hearing this, the chimpanzee hesitated.

Looking at Chu Ge's muscular limbs, it felt apprehensive.

It gritted its teeth and charged at Chu Ge.

Its hands began with the signature Wing Chun opening stance as it quickly approached Chu Ge.

Soon, it was in front of Chu Ge.

Chu Ge, lying on the ground, raised his lion's paw.

The chimpanzee quickly used its elbows to fend off the blow, its other hand slicing towards Chu Ge's neck like a knife hand.

Chu Ge took the hit and felt pain.

"Interesting."

Chu Ge raised an eyebrow; it looked like this guy wasn't just a show-off.

Immediately, he stood up, frightening the chimpanzee so much its legs shook.

Chu Ge lunged at him, but the chimpanzee deftly dodged to the side.

After landing, Chu Ge charged again, his claws swinging, and the chimpanzee quickly used Wing Chun to block.

Overpowering force!

The chimpanzee managed to block seven or eight strikes before carelessly getting hit by Chu Ge and falling to the ground.

Chu Ge stopped, smiling, "You're still lacking some heat."

After speaking, he lifted his paw and stepped on the chimpanzee's chest.

By now, he was quite heavy, at least enough to exert great pressure on the chimpanzee.

Facing Chu Ge's gaze, the chimpanzee's heart rate sped up, suddenly feeling the breath of death.

He couldn't be an undercover, could he?

The thought popped up in the chimpanzee's mind, and instantly, panic set in.

Damn!

I'm so stupid!

Isn't this a death sentence?

The chimpanzee was plunged into despair.

At that moment, Chu Ge withdrew his claws and said, "You're probably not a mole, a mole wouldn't be this dumb. How about this, stick with me. Whatever I tell you to do later, you do it, and you'll be well rewarded."

The chimpanzee was stunned, then insanely overjoyed.

He hurriedly got up, rubbing his hands and laughing, "Alright! Big brother!"

Having such a majestic lion as an ally was bound to significantly increase his safety.

And so, Chu Ge temporarily recruited a little kung fu brother.

He continued to follow the scent of the sika deer.

The chimpanzee was excited, wanting to speak but fearing he might disturb Chu Ge.

Chu Ge inquired about his survival skills, and he said he had only exchanged for Level 3 Muscle Strengthening.

Chu Ge absolutely didn't believe this, but he didn't press the issue.

Half an hour later.

Chu Ge and the chimpanzee stopped by the river. The stream was only one meter deep, crystal clear, with little fish swimming around.

The reason they stopped was that on the opposite side of the river were two teams waiting for them.

Black Blind and Hyena!

Just the sight of Black Blind made the chimpanzee involuntarily swallow.

The hyena was equally scared, his legs trembling as he looked at the muscles on Chu Ge's body.

He had watched plenty of documentaries; many hyenas ended up dead in the jaws of lions.

"So it's this guy."

Murderous intent flashed in Chu Ge's eyes, as he was ready to kill.

Black Blind sized up Chu Ge and was secretly alarmed; this guy was indeed strong.

But he wasn't afraid, just alarmed.

When it came to being strong, as a black bear, who was he to fear?

"Kid, you've caught my attention, I advise you not to resist and run away, or I'll make sure you die a painful death," Black Blind said with a smile, a cruel smile.

Chu Ge snorted coldly, "Who's going to die is still uncertain, come on over and face your death!"

Dominant!

The chimpanzee was impressed and felt his fear diminish greatly.

Black Blind immediately jumped into the river and charged toward Chu Ge.

Hyena hesitated a moment but followed suit.

A great battle was about to ensue.

Chu Ge looked up and roared, the Lion's Roar echoing through the woods.

When Black Blind pounced from the river, Chu Ge didn't dodge but collided head-on.

The two beasts clashed by the riverside, savagely and unrestrained.

The black bear wasn't the largest species of bear, and if Chu Ge was scared of him, how would he ever face grizzlies, polar bears?

This time, Chu Ge clearly felt that the oppressive force from Black Blind was much less than before.

It wasn't that Black Blind had gotten weaker.

It was he who had gotten stronger!

The two began to grapple and bite fiercely.

Chu Ge's lion claws were well-trained and lethal.

For a while, the two fought with no clear upper hand.

"This guy is so strong, and his skin is tough!" Black Blind was shocked to see Chu Ge in this form. He didn't at all look as if he was severely wounded and realized he had been played by the American Lion.

But he was Black Blind!

Unbeatable in battle!

He roared loudly, aiming to overwhelm Chu Ge, but Chu Ge was quick to dodge his pounce effortlessly, then turned and jumped on his back, biting down on his neck and digging his claws into his flesh, causing him to roar continuously in pain.

At the same time.

The chimpanzee and the hyena had come to blows.

The hyena was smaller than Chu Ge and far less strong. The chimpanzee found it easy to deal with him.

A series of Wing Chun Kung Fu punches caught the hyena off guard.

"You know kung fu?" the Hyena jumped back, crying out in shock.

The chimpanzee posed, calmly saying, "Wing Chun, Wukong."
