Back in reality, Chu Ge sat on the sofa flipping through information about Tokyo on his cellphone.
He had certainly heard a lot about Tokyo.
The strongest impression he had was that it was very hot there.
Moreover, in many animations from The Island Nation, Tokyo was a sacred place.
There was everything.
Ghouls.
Magical Girls.
Demon Hunters.
Demon Kings from Another World.
Ninjas.
And Sun Wukong with a tail.
Chu Ge was quite interested in Tokyo, as he estimated most young people would be.
"Should we go to Tokyo now to scout the place?"
Local Snake asked with a mischievous grin, almost drooling with laughter.
Tokyo was definitely a holy land for otakus.
All his two-dinsional wives were there.
As Nangong calculated the company's finances, he humd, "Don't go, I'm afraid you'll weaken yourself so much you end up getting squashed right at the start of the next ga."
"How could that happen!"
"How could it not? Think about it, you've been flipping over too often recently. Continue like this, and you'll be worthless to our team, and sooner or later, we'll have to exile you."

"..."
Local Snake fell silent, struck by a critical hit.
He really didn't want to admit it.
But it was true.
If an Earthworm can't make it to the end for the team, then his existence in the team would be aningless.
Chu Ge's eyes were fixed on the screen as he spoke, "Everyone fails sotis, he's brought glory to us before, just be more careful in the future."
Upon hearing this, Local Snake was deeply moved, filled with indescribable emotion.
He nodded vigorously, making a promise, "This ti in the city Survival Competition, I absolutely will not die!"
Nangong shook his head with a smile and didn't continue to pick on Local Snake.
He and Local Snake had beco good friends; he simply did not want Local Snake to beco too complacent.
He saw things clearly.
Suicide was getting stronger and stronger.
One day, soone would not be able to keep up with the team's pace.
The end result would be only one, that is being kicked out.
Even with Chu Ge's tolerance, the laggards couldn't handle the high intensity of the Survival Competition.
Survival Points could not be transferred unless they were spent on common team expenses, such as establishing a team or upgrading the Cultivation Hall.
Depending on your teammates' Survival Points to save your life was impossible.
If that were possible, the Survival Competition would lose its fairness and be corrupted by capital, just like the real world.
...
Ti passed.
The night before the city Survival Competition.
Gao Fei called Chu Ge to ask if he was going to join the city Survival Competition.
"Yeah, are you?"
"Uh-huh, we're not going to run into each other, are we?"
"I'm in Tokyo, how about you?"
"Damn! I am too!"
"Well then, just call 'bro', and I'll spare your life."
"You're getting cockier by the minute. How's your strength now? Your team's rank on the Three Stars Combat Power list has been falling; haven't you been losing all the ti?"
"We just can't be bothered to test our combat power, that's all."
Chu Ge and Gao Fei started chatting.
Gao Fei was the first Survivor Chu Ge t, and they kept in touch regularly.
Now, Gao Fei no longer worked for Boss Jin but had switched to work for Boss Jin's business partner and rival, Li Xuqing.
Li Xuqing's Qian Lake Club was gaining more and more prestige. Even in the Three Stars Survival City where Chu Ge lived, he occasionally heard news about the Qian Lake Club.
The Qian Lake Club had businesses in Geshan City where Chu Ge lived; it was a popular bar.
After chatting for a while, Gao Fei started to boast about Li Xuqing.
Ever since joining the Qian Lake Club, this guy had been exalting Li Xuqing to an unparalleled level.
He was almost a die-hard fan.
Li Xuqing was a Five Stars Survivor, very strong, and also very young, with many admirers in various Survival Cities.
Chu Ge, however, wasn't particularly impressed by him.
Through Gao Fei, Chu Ge found out that this month, two hundred and thirty-two cities around the world would be engaged in city battles.
The number was huge, but it wasn't much on a global scale.
Survivors, in their quest to better survive, certainly wouldn't dare to reveal themselves to humans.
Of course, there were always so madn who enjoyed challenging human hegemony.
After chatting with Gao Fei, Chu Ge received a ssage from a friend on his Idealism software.
It was Tang Xuejia.
The girl chatted with him every week, though she wasn't the proactive type.
If Chu Ge didn't have ti to reply, she would absolutely not send another ssage.
Once Chu Ge replied, she would wait a few seconds before sending another ssage.
Hmm.
A few seconds.
Neither so imdiate as to seem submissive nor too distant.
The content of their chats was still as uneventful, just casual banter.
However, Chu Ge felt she had changed recently; the topics of their chats were all about nature and the evil doings of humankind.
He even suspected she had been chosen as a Survivor.
Even if she truly beca a Survivor, Chu Ge couldn't help her.
One could only survive in the Survival Arena by overcoming their own psychological barriers.
The ti reached 10:30 PM.
Chu Ge went to bed early to sleep.
...
The next morning.
Team Cultivation Hall.
Chu Ge, Gu Tianjiao, Arno, Xiao Poor Thing, Nangong, Ye Wukong, General Lie Hao, Local Snake, and Xiao Hero gathered together.
"None of you are newbies anymore. I've already said what needs to be said, don't act rashly, and do not take things lightly. Understand?"
Chu Ge swept his gaze over everyone, speaking in a deep voice.
Crouching on the ground, he was nearly two ters tall, and with his muscular build, he had a very commanding presence.
"Understood!"
Everyone responded in unison, each of them brimming with enthusiasm.
They were all veterans with rich combat experience, all looking forward to the upcoming Survival Competition.
After Chu Ge finished speaking, they all began patiently waiting for the Survival Competition to unfold.
Ye Wukong suddenly thought of sothing and said, "By the way, that Python might still be after to finish off."
Nangong rolled his eyes and responded, "You're really sothing, it ate you once and it's still not finished with you."
"Nonsense, a powerhouse like must be nipped in the bud, otherwise they'll never have peace of mind for the rest of their lives," Ye Wukong boasted.
In the past month, he had beco even stronger.
In a fight with General Lie Hao, Ye Wukong's skills and reflexes were such that General Lie Hao couldn't defeat him.
General Lie Hao was also getting stronger, but his aptitude for martial arts wasn't as good as Ye Wukong's.
Of course, killing him was even more difficult for Ye Wukong.
General Lie Hao not only had imnse strength, his defensive power was also terrifying.
"You just need a good beating," General Lie Hao said disdainfully.
He couldn't stand Ye Wukong's showboating.
That smug face was just too irritating!
Chu Ge watched them bicker but did not intervene.
A little roughhousing was fine, to prevent the team atmosphere from being cold and reducing their relationships to re work-related interactions.
Groups like the Roaring Tiger Group could abandon their teammates at any ti, even kick mbers out on a whim.
Chu Ge hoped Suicide would be cohesive and full of loyalty and camaraderie.
So far, Suicide was indeed developing in that direction.
Ti continued to pass.
"This Survival Competition will be a city survival battle!"
"1..."
...
"The city survival battle has officially begun!"
As the cool female voice finished speaking, Chu Ge felt the world spinning around him.
His vision went dark, and he could no longer see anything.
