Survival Arena

Chu Ge sighed, "This is really turning into a horror movie."

Gu Tianjiao was also moved.

She had guessed that the Black Blind wanted to show off its power in front of humans, but she didn\'t expect it to actually harm someone.

Was it self-defense during capture, or a premeditated attack?

The difference between the two was huge.

"Let\'s go, the environment for the next task will be even more challenging. We must manage our time well."

Chu Ge stood up and said, Gu Tianjiao got up as well, and the two of them moved forward along the edge of the bushes.

The news of the black bear attack spread wildly within Xuanjiang University.

The news spread online.

A black bear appearing in the campus of a prestigious university, and attacking someone, was certainly rare.

With the addition of other animals, Xuanjiang University rapidly became a hot topic.

Inside Xuanjiang University, the excitement among the students outweighed any panic.

Students from various locations gathered in large groups; they wouldn\'t likely fear a single black bear, and some of the male students even wanted to hunt it.

Once people band together, they tend to easily forget fear.

In a dormitory room.

Chu Yingying, wearing a nightgown, stood on the balcony making a phone call, her eyebrows tightly furrowed, eyes full of confusion.

"Xiao Ge ran away from home again?" she asked in a hushed tone.

From the other end of the phone, Han Yujuan\'s anxious voice came through, "Yes, what on earth is he doing? This is the third time he suddenly disappeared in two months. This time, it\'s somewhat better, he left a note, but he said he wouldn\'t be back for three days."

Chu Yingying comforted her mother while thinking about what Chu Ge had said to her.

Could the appearance of animals in the school be related to Chu Ge?

Impossible.

What could a high school student be capable of?

After the call, Chu Yingying remained in thought standing on the balcony.

On the balconies of nearby dormitory buildings, students watched, hoping to catch a glimpse of the Black Blind.

"Where is that black bear?"

"Have you heard? That black bear stands over two to three meters tall when it rises up!"

"I have intel that the incident happened right at our commonly frequented Building No. 3."

"That\'s too scary. We have to go out together from now on, no more going alone, got it?"

"Well, now we don\'t have to attend classes, let\'s go online gaming."

The students were excited, while the school authorities were extremely nervous.

Teaching staff could be seen everywhere on campus, and their fear of the black bear was greatly reduced in broad daylight.

However, no matter how bold the Black Blind was, it couldn\'t just wander around brazenly under the sun.

...

Chu Ge and the lynx were lying on a tree, peering down at the nearby school path.

People in every direction were searching for traces of the Black Blind.

"The situation isn\'t looking good for us," Gu Tianjiao said with a serious gaze.

Chu Ge also felt a headache brewing; the situation had blown up too much, and it was going to be difficult to move around.

Xuanjiang University was large, but there were many surveillance cameras. It wasn\'t impossible for humans to find them.

"What on earth does he want to do?"

Chu Ge asked softly, referring naturally to the Black Blind.

Gu Tianjiao didn\'t answer because she too was pondering that question.

"He\'s just a madman."

A faint voice came from below, and at first Chu Ge and Gu Tianjiao thought it was the other\'s voice, not paying attention.

"He will hurt someone again, or even kill them."

The faint voice sounded again, and Chu Ge looked down with a puzzled expression.

Under the tree, an earthworm poked out half of its body, looking up at them.

Chu Ge asked, "You\'re still alive?"

Gu Tianjiao followed his gaze, and her expression became strange when she saw the earthworm.

"Distinguished lords, would you need someone to catch lice for you? I\'m very gentle and can make you both very comfortable," the earthworm asked, appearing so humble.

Just as Chu Ge was about to respond, Gu Tianjiao suddenly said, "Someone\'s coming. Let\'s go quickly!"

After saying that, Gu Tianjiao turned around and jumped into the small grove, followed closely by Chu Ge, and the two quickly disappeared.

The earthworm almost collapsed, wailing, "Oh God, is there any chance of survival?"

Chu Ge and Gu Tianjiao sprinted through the underbrush, moving swiftly.

They approached the entrance of the school.

On both sides of Xuanjiang University\'s gate was greenery, with a row of dense trees above the plants. Chu Ge and Gu Tianjiao crawled forward, perfectly concealed by the foliage.

At this moment, the square in front of the gate was crowded with people.

A line of security guards blocked the entrance, with reporters, civilians, and many anxious parents outside.

"Please be assured, dear parents, we\'ve asked our teachers to fetch your children. They will be out shortly."

A middle-aged man with thinning hair stood behind the guards, comforting the parents.

Chu Ge peered through the gaps in the underbrush and muttered, "Why are there so many people here? This news spread too quickly, didn\'t it?"

In a low voice, Gu Tianjiao replied, "After all, this is Xuanjiang University, a famous institution nationwide. Any unusual event tends to blow up, not to mention something like a black bear injuring people, straight out of a movie."

Chu Ge sighed and said, "What a hassle. Let\'s just hide here. Nobody would think to look for us in this place."

Humans were after the black bear; it couldn\'t possibly hide behind such low undergrowth. Moreover, being so close to the school gate, rescue personnel would likely skip over this area immediately upon arrival.

Of course, if they were discovered, Chu Ge was confident that he could escape.

Gu Tianjiao gave a slight nod.

During the following period, teachers escorted students to the school entrance one after another.

The civilians gathered at the school entrance were mostly there to watch the commotion, curious about what the bear that had injured people looked like.

More and more students chose to leave the school; by around ten o\'clock, the three main roads leading to the school entrance had formed into lengthy queues.

These students were curious about the lynx, too, but they were more eager to go out and have fun.

They wouldn\'t miss out, not when they had just gotten a break.

The school was all too happy for them to leave, and thus didn\'t attempt to stop them.

Among them, Chu Yingying also proceeded with her roommates. She frowned among the crowd, her thoughts unknown.

"Let\'s go eat barbecue, then sing karaoke, and after that watch a movie!"

The bespectacled girl holding onto Chu Yingying\'s arm laughed, and their roommates all agreed.

They began talking about the black bear again, which was also the topic of conversation among the other students around them.

It was their first time getting a schoolwide break because of an animal.

"The Black Blind is here! It\'s nearby!"

From the underbrush, Gu Tianjiao suddenly said in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Chu Ge asked with surprise, "It\'s nearby? Has it gone mad? There are so many people here."

Gu Tianjiao took a deep breath and asked, "Exactly, with so many people, how will they deal with a crazed black bear?"

Chu Ge\'s pupils constricted and he understood her implication immediately.

He involuntarily gasped in shock.

Was the Black Blind so mad as to do this?

What was it after?

Just to feel the bliss of flexing its divine power?
