nIn the main hall of the station.

nBell and the other contestants were already there.

nThese contestants were all survivalists who had passed the previous three rounds.

nalthough they did not pass as easily as Bell.

nAt this moment, everyone was looking at each other. They did not know why the production team had called them over.

nIt could not be said that they did not know about it. At least, everyone knew that it had to do with the next episode of Wilderness Survival.

n“I wonder what new tricks the production team is going to pull this time. I hope it won’t be like last time.”

n“I almost couldn’t walk out of the desert survival last time.”

nEveryone felt lingering fear when they thought of their previous trip to the desert.

nLacking food and water was not a good life for humans.

nIn the past, most survivalists had relied on luck to find some edible food. There was no specific plan, or even if they had some, they could not be put into practice.

nAlthough there were rescue teams, this was still a very dangerous thing.

nBut even so, these people present still had no intention of retreating.

nBecause Wilderness Survival was indeed a very popular program.

nEven if they could not win the first prize, they could still make a killing by getting some fame.

nMany of these survivalists who had passed the rounds had started to do product endorsement.

nWith money on the line, these survivalists were unwilling to give up on this fat piece of meat, even though it was very dangerous.

nBecause they had relied on luck to survive, most survivalists thought that the others were similar to them.

nHowever, they knew that one of them was an exception, and that was Bell.

nAll the survivalists present had a trace of hostility when they looked at Bell.

n“Is that the recently viral Bell?”

n“Hmph, I thought he was something amazing. But no matter what, he is only a child.”

n“I heard that Bell’s results are very outstanding. He was first in the previous Wilderness Survival rounds, and he has already taken up more than half of the program’s popularity.”

n“Hmph, what’s so great about it? It’s most likely just a gimmick created by the production team.”

n“Are you saying that his videos are fake? They’re completely different from us.”

nTwo contestants whispered.

n“What else could it be? He’s only an eight-year-old child. Do you think he has such ability?”

n“It’s not like we don’t know how difficult Wilderness Survival is. The production team is just deceiving the layman.”

n“I dare to bet that his scenes are definitely staged. Who knows how many teams are following behind him during the recording.”

nThe others nodded in agreement.

nThat’s right, how could a child like him possibly do something so difficult like Wilderness Survival?

nThere was no lack of self-righteous people in this world.

nThere were always people who felt that if they could not do something, the others would also not be able to do it.

nBell did not know about their conversation.

nOr rather, even if he knew, he would not care.

nHe knew very well whether his live broadcast was real or not. It was not something that others could deny with just a few words.

nWhile everyone was whispering, the production team finally appeared.

nThe beautiful host walked out with Ed and Bear.

n“Since everyone is here, let’s get to the point.”

n“Firstly, I would like to congratulate everyone. To be able to pass the previous few rounds, everyone is very outstanding in the wilderness survival field.”

nThe beautiful host was polite. She had seen these people’s tragic looks when they left the wilderness.

nMany people seemed to take her words at face value.

nAmong them were the two people who had criticized Bell from behind. At this moment, they were looking forward proudly, as if they were the survivalists with outstanding results that the host had mentioned.

nHowever, most of the people were paying attention to the beautiful host’s words and were in no mood to pay attention to the two of them.

nThe beautiful host continued.

n“However, you will face an even greater test.”

nThe beautiful host paused.

nImmediately, the hearts of the survivalists who had passed by luck rose to their throats.

nThey did not want to be inexplicably eliminated.

nEveryone became nervous, not knowing what the production team was planning.

nThe next second, the host said with a smile.

n“The production team thinks that after these experiences, solo survival is no longer a threat to everyone, so we have decided to have a team competition for the next round.”

n“With limited resources, let’s see who can survive.”

nBell’s pupils constricted.

n“Limited resources? In that case, the location shouldn’t be too big.”

n“And it’s a team competition.”

nHe had not seen any other survival contestants in the past few times. Could it be that he would encounter other contestants in the show this time?

nBell reacted immediately.

nThe others were paying attention to something else.

n“Team competition, doesn’t that mean we can team up with other survivalists?”

nFor a moment, everyone who had been avoiding Bell like tigers leaned in his direction.

nAlthough everyone expressed their disdain for him, no one was willing to let go of this opportunity to suck up to him.

nAlthough they did not know if Bell really had the ability, it was a good thing to be able to increase their popularity.

nUnfortunately, the beautiful host seemed to see through everyone’s thoughts.

nShe shook her head and smiled.

n“Everyone, you’re mistaken. Since it’s Wilderness Survival, we naturally can’t let everyone form a team in private like this.”

n“I’ll introduce some new friends to everyone.”

nImmediately after, figures walked out from the backstage. There were both men and women.

nBefore the contestants could ask, the beautiful host explained.

n“Alright, these new friends are your next companions in Wilderness Survival.”

n“There will be five people in each group for this Wilderness Survival round, and one contestant has to be in each group.”

n“The team composition will be chosen by the participants themselves.”

n“If the number of participants in a contestant’s team exceeds the allowed number, the contestants can choose the final team members.”

nEveryone understood.

nIn fact, it was handing the priority over to the participating guests.

nBut the final decision was in the hands of the contestants.
