Survival Arena

Five goldfish squished together, Chu Ge, General Lie Hao, Nangong, Ye Wukong, and Arno struggled frantically, but unfortunately, as soon as they left the water, they felt suffocated and quickly lost the ability to struggle.

Fish Boss then placed them separately into individual transparent plastic cups.

Afterward, Fish Boss continued fishing.

In less than five minutes, dozens of transparent plastic cups around Chu Ge were filled with goldfish.

Xiao Hero and Local Snake were also caught.

The dozens of goldfish were all Survivors.

"Damn it, we're so unlucky!"

"Shit, are we going to kneel at the start?"

"It's said that we goldfish have short lives and will die in a few days."

"Pfft, I'm not a goldfish, you're the goldfish."

"It's over, a nightmare start, we're screwed in this Survival Competition."

Listening to the curses around him, Chu Ge felt irritable, so what if he had become a goldfish!

As long as he had Survival Skills, everything was negotiable!

Chu Ge adjusted his mood, waiting for a chance to escape.

If he wanted to hunt, he still had to find an opportunity to fall into the river.

He didn't even know if he, as a goldfish, could survive in the ocean.

It was said that in Survival Competition, any fish could survive in both freshwater and saltwater, but he didn't know if it was true.

The goldfish were restless.

Not much later, four boys paid and each picked out a plastic cup and left.

Chu Ge was unlucky enough to be chosen.

Under the sympathetic gaze of his teammates, he disappeared into the crowd.

The four boys were clearly good friends, chatting and laughing along the way.

Chu Ge couldn't understand their language, so he started to communicate with the other three Survivors.

These three were from two different Survival Teams, and they had already given up.

Being taken away by such brats, what good ending could there be?

They would definitely be played to death!

Chu Ge didn't reveal his identity; if the three Survivors knew that Chuge Siqi, ranked fourth in combat power, had the same fate as them, they probably wouldn't believe it.

The four boys walked onto a deserted street next to a river that was murky and covered with algae, giving it a dirty appearance.

They suddenly stopped and started chatting excitedly.

Chu Ge couldn't understand their conversation, but seeing their innocent smiles, he couldn't help but hope.

Hopefully, they were good kids.

Who would treat them, the little goldfish, kindly.

Just then.

Crack!

The boy across from Chu Ge suddenly squeezed the plastic cup in his hand, deforming it completely, and the goldfish inside was crushed to a pulp.

Chu Ge was stunned.

The other two Survivors were also stunned.

A chill crept over their hearts.

The children's laughter sounded like silver bells, very innocent.

"Fuck!"

"Damn!"

Unable to restrain themselves, two of the Survivors cursed out loud, completely panicking.

Demons!

This wasn't child's play!

The behavior went beyond simply calling them brats!

Another boy lifted up the plastic cup in his hand high.

"No, no! I'm not a goldfish, I'm human!"

The Survivor inside the plastic cup screamed in terror, his voice was hoarse and even carried a hint of crying.

Crack!

The boy couldn't hear the Survivor's language; his face filled with excitement as he squashed the plastic cup, and with it, the goldfish—the Survivor—was squished to mush.

Chu Ge and the remaining Survivor completely panicked.

No!

If this continues, they'll all die horribly!

Being crumpled to death...

Even Chu Ge couldn't bear to imagine such pain.

To them, the children's laughter at this moment was undoubtedly a demon's carnival, with despair boiling over.

Chu Ge immediately used Raging Flame Separation, invoking the heat within his body.

The water temperature in the plastic cup rose rapidly.

"Ah!"

The boy holding Chu Ge suddenly screamed in agony, scalded, he let go, and the plastic cup smashed onto the ground.

Chu Ge felt like he had plummeted from dozens of meters in the air, landing with such force that it left him dizzy and disoriented.

A desperate survival instinct made him flail wildly, as he leapt towards the nearby river.

Angered by being burnt, the boy gave Chu Ge a vicious kick, sending him tumbling into the river.

That kick knocked Chu Ge unconscious.

As consciousness slipped into darkness, only one thought filled Chu Ge's mind.

He wanted to strangle those little brats!

…

In the river.

Chu Ge, transformed into a goldfish, drifted along with the current.

At first glance, he seemed like a dead fish, belly-up.

His consciousness slowly stirred awake.

He struggled to open his eyes, and his memories started to return.

"Damn it... it hurts..."

Chu Ge furiously thought that if not for his defensive power being far superior to an ordinary goldfish, that kid's kick might have killed him on the spot.

Children tend to not value the lives of small animals.

Especially boys, who like to kill small insects or little fish for fun, proving their might.

Before, Chu Ge hadn't given it much thought.

Now...

He experienced the tragedy of being like a small insect.

Chu Ge made an effort to regulate his emotions.

Almost getting killed by a child would be an utter embarrassment if word got out!

He suddenly thought about Gu Tianjiao and the others, and his mood grew heavy again.

He hoped that his teammates wouldn't suffer the same fate as him.

He could only hope that those four lethal children wouldn't go back to buy another goldfish.

"Survival Team [Mad Gunner] has been annihilated by Survival Team [Sea God Group, a branch of the Trio Gods Group]!"

Upon hearing this announcement, Chu Ge immediately burst into laughter.

That damned White Ape King has screwed up again!

In the randomized species competition, his firearms were hardly effective.

After resting for quite a while, Chu Ge began to move.

He wanted to see where this river led.

From the outside, the river appeared murky, but once actually at the bottom, the water surprisingly looked quite clear.

Chu Ge still harbored intentions to kill.

Although his Raging Flame Separation would be suppressed in the water, the high temperature it created was enough to scald most fish to death.

The Maxun Archipelago was vast, surrounded by the ocean, making marine animals more plentiful than those on land.

Chu Ge proceeded with caution.

Even though city rivers wouldn't have water monsters, any slightly larger fish could still pose a threat to him.

The river was lengthy; Chu Ge swam for over three hours and still hadn't reached the end.

The water's temperature and flow rate remained constant, indicating he was still a long way from the sea.

"Gu Tianjiao, Vice Leader of [Suicide], has been hunted down by an enemy!"

The indifferent female voice suddenly rang out, and Chu Ge's gaze turned icy in an instant.

In past survival competitions, Gu Tianjiao was always among the last ones standing; unexpectedly, she died so quickly this time.

There was no helping it. Being a goldfish, the odds of death were just too high.

Chu Ge didn't dwell on it and could only pray that the other members of his team would last longer.

"Brother over there."

A faint voice came through, and Chu Ge immediately turned to look.

There were no other fish or creatures nearby.

"Over here, brother."

The weak voice came again, but Chu Ge couldn't find the source no matter where he looked.

All around were only some weeds and trash swaying; there was no trace of any creature.

"I am this weed."

Following the sound, Chu Ge looked and his gaze landed on a weed that looked like a leek.

What the hell...

Was there someone more unfortunate than him?
