Live Strong in the Wilderness

If it hadn’t been for the wilderness challenge on the Spirit Blue Star, she would still be a carefree, financially independent, well-known game streamer, enjoying the adoration of countless people, and indulging in various delicacies.

She might even easily find love and an excellent partner.

But now, after experiencing so much and developing a crush on Xu Yi, it’s hard for her to like anyone else.

Everyone in the team can see that Zhou Mo is interested in Wang Jin.

However, Wang Jin has already made her feelings clear to Zhou Mo, telling him that she can’t possibly like him.

Having fallen for someone as outstanding as Xu Yi, it’s indeed a bit difficult for Lu Ke to accept Zhou Mo.

Because, the comparison with Zhou Mo’s object is just too strong.

"Sis, don’t you dare say this out loud. If you do, things will be awkward between Xu Yi and me." Wang Jin admitted frankly after seeing Lu Yao’s determined expression.

Sometimes, people really need a partner they can confide in.

This way, the bad emotions inside can be vented out, allowing oneself to achieve a better state and a healthier mindset.

"Why, do you think your sister can’t keep a secret?" Lu Yao gave Wang Jin a slight sidelong glance.

"Of course not, I know you’re very reliable." Wang Jin said, sticking out her tongue, then continued, "My demands are actually very simple: to fight alongside Xu Yi, become his comrade, provide him some help, and always stand by his side, that’s enough for me."

"Indeed, the camaraderie between comrades is actually stronger than that between lovers. Because, we’ve shared life and death together." Lu Yao said happily, feeling that Wang Jin has genuinely grown a lot.

She has already learned to restrain her emotions.

Though this might seem a bit ’pathetic’.

Many people believe that humans should not restrain their emotions and should uphold their nature.

However, human civilization, education, laws, are inherently against nature.

Instinct, that’s the animal’s innate behavior.

Do humans need to devolve back into apes?

Of course, Lu Yao knows many who claim to unleash their nature are actually double standards.

They allow themselves to unleash their nature, but not others. Or, they use unleashing their nature to justify some behaviors that violate ethics, laws, or social norms.

While the two were talking, Lu Yao’s Star Chart suddenly vibrated a few times.

"Incoming call request from Xu Yi, connect?" the Star Chart’s voice came through.

"Connect," Lu Yao replied.

Then, a screen popped up in front of her.

On the screen were Xu Yi and Lu Ke.

The two were eating.

"Hi, Sis Lu Yao, Ah Jin." Lu Ke greeted proactively.

"Keke, are you guys in the territory of an 8th level Fierce Beast now? Is everything okay?" Wang Jin asked curiously.

"We’re in the territory of a 9th level Fierce Beast," Xu Yi answered Wang Jin’s question and then asked, "How’s everyone doing? Have there been any improvements in strength?"

"Wang Jin has reached the peak of level 6 and is now able to hunt 7th level Fierce Beasts. I, Qin Chao, and Su Yan have advanced to level 6. Qin Fan has just started learning the Supreme Profound Scripture, so he hasn’t broken through to level 6 yet. Additionally, Vera and Li Nian haven’t mastered it, and Lei Jie has just arrived at the Pangu and started practicing the Supreme Profound Scripture," Lu Yao reported their situation to Xu Yi in detail.

Lu Yao also reported on the other conditions in the camp to Xu Yi.

After talking for a while, they ended the call.

Then, Xu Yi contacted the head of the Combat Department to understand the situation there.

After understanding the Combat Department, Xu Yi then inquired about the Research Department.

As for Newcomer Island, Xu Yi did not inquire.

There’s currently no person in charge of Newcomer Island yet. Once Xu Yi appoints a person in charge in a few days, the situation there will be more clear.
