Survival Arena

Chu Ge slowly sunk, his gaze locked onto the colossal shadow above, not daring to breathe.

Gu Tianjiao, Nangong, Ye Wukong, and Xiao Poor Thing were scattered around, equally on edge and too scared to speak.

"What kind of monster could it possibly be?"

Swirling in Chu Ge's mind was a doubt, followed by a sudden thought.

Random species, could it turn into a prehistoric creature?

Megalodon...

Dunkleosteus...

Dragon King Whale...

Mosasaur...

Just thinking of these names made Chu Ge's scalp tingle.

Then another possibility occurred to him.

Could this one be the strongest Survivor from Huaxia?

He observed carefully, noticing that the creature looked different from both the Megalodon and the Great White Shark in size.

Its head was massive, and its body proportions were odd.

It did seem similar to a Mosasaur.

The mysterious creature began to devour the surrounding fish near the gray whale carcass, stirring the waters.

After a while, the mysterious creature moved on.

It seemed to be sated and showed no interest in the creatures lurking on the ocean floor like Chu Ge and the others.

A long time after it had left, Gu Tianjiao's voice finally sounded, "Its scent has faded; it must have gone far away."

The five of them gathered together and swam in the opposite direction.

"Oh my, wasn't it said that the Survival Arena doesn't allow Survivors with significant differences in Star Level strength to meet?" moaned Ye Wukong, his voice trembling.

Gu Tianjiao analyzed, "In theory, yes, but what if that wasn't a Survivor?"

Sea Monster!

A shudder went through everyone's hearts.

Legends of various strange creatures often circulate in the ocean, and many movies are even based on sea monsters.

"It's also possible that some lucky guy turned into a prehistoric creature," continued Chu Ge.

This guess almost made Ye Wukong spit blood.

"Why am I a flounder?" he wailed again, in anguish.

No one comforted him; they were still shaken from the recent scare.

"Let's get out of here fast, before that thing comes back."

Chu Ge ordered, then started to pick up speed, the others hurriedly following him.

Having encountered the gigantic creature earlier, they became even more cautious and no longer allowed themselves to be distracted by the scenery along the way.

The ocean was even more vibrant and colorful than land, not just because of the corals but also due to the variety of creatures.

Sardines, salmon, mackerel, squid, flounders, clownfish, tuna, kissing gouramis, tiger fish, manefish, driftfish, marlins, tropical fish, stoplight loosejaw, fairy basslets, flashlight fish, sturgeon, trout, rays, and more.

These fish kept Chu Ge and the rest busy taking it all in.

Some of these fish, Chu Ge had previously assumed were exclusive to other seas, but to his surprise, he could find them in the Pacific Ocean as well.

Which made sense, given the enormity of the Pacific, home to countless creatures, impossible to fully catalog.

"If only I were a hungry shark," Nangong sighed.

Xiao Poor Thing chuckled, "Mr. Couch Potato, you've got a gaming obsession."

Nangong huffed, "There's no poop in the sea, are you unhappy about that?"

The two began to bicker.

Armed with a batfish's massive build, Xiao Poor Thing quickly got Nangong begging for mercy. Discover hidden stories at empire

Gu Tianjiao settled onto Chu Ge's back, aiming to rest, but she cleverly disguised her slacking by engaging in conversation.

"We can't just focus on surviving; we also need to find and hunt down Survivors. This is a good opportunity."

Feeling uncomfortable on his back, Chu Ge thought, this woman is too annoying.

The points of the King Crab's legs on his smooth back were like an execution.

"Sure, that's possible, but can you get down first?"

"About pursuing Survivors, we should discuss."

"Get off me first."

"I have a keen sense of smell, what about you?"

"Your mom exploded..."

"We can discuss all we want, but if you dare insult my mother, don't blame me for getting mad..."

Chu Ge began to shake violently, trying to throw Gu Tianjiao off.

But the tenacious woman clamped onto his fins, securing herself in place.

Chu Ge was on the verge of breaking down.

Ye Wukong followed behind, calling out, "The world has gone downhill, no, the world has gone 'sea level', broad daylight, and what are you two doing in that posture!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Tianjiao immediately let go of Chu Ge.

The moment she left, Chu Ge instantly relaxed.

He turned around, glaring fiercely at Gu Tianjiao, looking as if he was ready to charge at her.

"Stop messing around, there's a strange smell, everyone be careful."

Gu Tianjiao spoke seriously, making everyone tense.

Chu Ge asked hesitantly, "This isn't something to joke about, it's a matter of team trust."

Gu Tianjiao huffed, "Would I joke with my life? Everyone, scatter and pretend to be marine creatures."

Hearing this, the group dispersed.

The water in this area was still clear, filled with many marine life forms, from seahorses to cuttlefish.

They spread out in the surroundings, not looking out of place.

In the ocean, it's not unusual to bump into a whale.

A few minutes passed.

A three-meter-long shark swam leisurely over.

Bull shark!

A ferocious shark with a strong propensity for attack.

It was bulky, dark grey on the back, and light grey on the belly, with a broad and flat snout, looking strong like a bull at first glance.

Its gaze locked onto Xiao Poor Thing.

Such a big shark wouldn't be satisfied with just small fish.

Xiao Poor Thing tensed up instantly.

Chu Ge wasn't afraid, a three-meter body length wasn't a threat to him.

He observed, trying to see if this creature was a Survivor.

At that moment, the bull shark began to accelerate, charging straight towards Xiao Poor Thing.

Xiao Poor Thing was quite large, even larger than the bull shark, but the bull shark knew that such a creature could only be its prey, incapable of fighting back.

Such a large batfish would feed it for quite some time.

Chu Ge looked at its speed and thought that it probably wasn't a Survivor.

He immediately sped up and rammed forward fiercely.

His tail fin moved swiftly, creating a long trail of water splashes.

With a bang!

He collided with the side of the bull shark, and he had Muscle Strengthening, Speed Enhancement, which gave him much more strength than an ordinary dolphin.

The bull shark was flipped over by the impact, but instead of being scared off, it flipped back and charged angrily towards Chu Ge.

The battle officially began!

Chu Ge displayed his speed, swimming around the bull shark, making it impossible for the shark to catch up.

After circling quickly dozens of times, the bull shark began to feel dizzy, its speed slowing down.

Chu Ge took the opportunity to rush forward and tear at its side.

He also had Bite Force Enhancement.

He easily tore off a chunk of the bull shark's flesh.

In this fashion, Chu Ge continuously harassed the bull shark.

Before long, he tore apart and bit the bull shark to death.

"Boss, that was awesome!"

Ye Wukong exclaimed excitedly, the bull shark to him was as big as a plane, so this battle was the most visually shocking for him.

A dolphin tearing apart a strong bull shark was as unbelievable as a dog killing a lion.

"Let's leave quickly, its blood will attract more sharks."

Gu Tianjiao reminded them, sharks also prey on each other, being one of the largest malignant forces in the ocean.

Chu Ge had no objections and continued onward.

The battle left his mouth feeling uncomfortable, as if he had exerted too much force.

"I have to be more careful in the future, not to split my lips."

Chu Ge thought to himself, his gaze shifting forward.

After swimming a few hundred meters, a large number of green turtles appeared ahead.

Chu Ge and his four companions began to follow the green turtles, thinking that the presence of so many turtles might attract the Survivors.

During this time, they didn't speak, striving to act like wild animals.

An hour later.

Chu Ge suddenly noticed two green turtles.

These two oddballs were continuously getting close to the other turtles, as if inspecting something.
