After this week's warm-up, the registration channel finally opened, and unexpectedly, there were a lot of people registering.
Before the registration channel opened, Ye Zi received a phone call, mainly asking if he wanted to participate. After Ye Zi answered affirmatively, his avatar appeared on the website homepage after the registration channel opened.
This profile picture is also a screenshot. Ye Zi is wearing a brown bear fur coat and holding an axe, standing in front of the shelter. It is a scene from the last joint survival exercise in Alaska.
Also included are descriptions and screenshots of Yezi's experiences and highlights in wilderness survival.
This also means that one contestant was pre-selected from the very beginning of the registration process.
Although many people are dissatisfied, Ye Zi's strength is undeniable.
Furthermore, the production team also released a list of invited participants from other countries, which reassured the applicants in China.
A few days later, the second contestant from the domestic website was confirmed. It was Zhuang Yan, the former soldier who had been commentating on the game "United Survival" at the beginning. He had retired and was now an ordinary person.
Shortly after registering, I passed the screening, and my profile picture appeared on the website homepage, following Ye Zi.
Although Ye Zi didn't know the exact start time of the program, he knew he should take action.
At the same time, this matter also needs to be told to the parents.
During dinner, Ye Zi told her parents about the program, and Si Qin frowned and asked:
Is there any danger?
"Probably not, after all, it's just a TV show, not the Colosseum in Rome."
And it was mostly walking, just like taking a stroll.
Siqin rolled her eyes at her son and said with a dissatisfied look:
"The first time you said there was no danger, just pick some fruit, shoot some pheasants, and catch a rabbit. But when we got there, we killed two bears and several wolves."
The second time you said there was no danger, just fishing, swimming, and going to the beach, but you ended up killing two sharks, one of which was bigger than a brown bear.
"This time it's another hike, just like a stroll, then maybe we'll go to the African plains, kill a pride of lions, and incidentally kill an elephant?"
Ye Zi felt embarrassed, but what her mother said was true. It was just that the first time it was the original owner who said it, and the second time it was him who said it. And he was the one who hunted the beasts both times.
"Mom, aren't you overestimating your son? A pack of lions? If we really encountered a pack of lions, I'd be lucky to escape with my life."
Besides, an elephant's size and weight are far beyond my capabilities, and elephants don't attack humans randomly.
Siqin rolled her eyes at Ye Zi again and said:
"You know you can't beat a pride of lions, so why did you participate?"
"I was the only one invited from China. If I refuse, wouldn't the other Chinese contestants be inferior to the foreigners? It's a matter of national pride, so I have to give it a try."
National pride transcends gender and age; a civilization that can exist for thousands of years as a nation possesses certain qualities inherent in its very being.
Hearing Ye Zi's explanation, Si Qin didn't know what to say. Besides, the matter was already settled, so all she could do now was complain.
Ye Qingshan patted his wife's back, which ached, and then said to Ye Zi:
"Don't worry about things at home. Take these few days to think about what preparations need to be made, do some research in advance, find out what dangers the Black Continent grasslands may have, how to avoid them, how to find water, what can be eaten and what cannot be eaten, and try to write it down."
"Understood," Ye Zi readily agreed.
Ye Qingshan thought for a moment and continued:
"Although it's about winning glory for the country, you must also ensure your own safety and not be reckless."
"I see."
After staying at home for two days, Yezi packed his things to go to the city. Before leaving, he specially brought a piece of sharkskin, as he still had many things to prepare.
Watching Ye Zi drive away, Siqin silently shed tears. This is probably what it means to worry about a mother when her child travels a thousand miles.
After arriving in Qingcheng, Yezi went home to tidy up briefly, then drove out and went to the building materials market first, where she bought two 500-liter plastic buckets.
He then went to the farmers' market and bought a truckload of bottled water. While moving the goods, he stored half of it in his spatial storage and left the other half in the car.
Not only did Yezi buy bottled water, but she also bought beef jerky and some compressed food, and finally salt and other seasonings, just in case. Besides, since the other party attacked first, she shouldn't blame him for being uncivilized.
Then I went to the flower, bird, fish and insect market and bought a bag of pebbles, nearly a thousand of them, all the perfect size to hold in my hand.
Finally, there's the weapon. Although she knew there wouldn't be any guns, Ye Zi still planned to make them.
We have reserves of both Qi and Blood Points and Spiritual Qi System, but we lack the Materials Department.
For this material, Ye Zi chose tungsten steel, which has excellent hardness and is very suitable for making weapons.
After acquiring 500 kilograms of tungsten steel, he left the building materials market and was immediately stored in the system space.
"System, you're a professional. Forge a pair of tungsten steel maces that are best suited for my use."
"clear."
After returning home, Yezi poured the bottled water she bought into the buckets. After both buckets were full, there was still some bottled water left.
After putting them all into her spatial storage, Ye Zi took out the bag of pebbles, poured them into the basket, and then put them into her spatial storage.
At this moment, the system announced that the weapon had been forged.
Ye Zi immediately took out a pair of jet-black tungsten steel maces, which were in her hand. They were a good weight to hold, and the system had already made the sharkskin that came with them into mace sheaths. Sharkskin was also added to the mace handles to increase grip comfort and anti-slip effect.
The two maces are of different lengths, one long and one short. The long one is 1.2 meters long, and the short one is 70 centimeters long.
After practicing the mace technique in the living room, Yezi liked the double maces even more because they were very comfortable to use.
While researching online at home, Yezi suddenly realized that she also needed to prepare survival tools, because these things are very important. Without them in the wild, it would be impossible to move an inch.
Moreover, in order to prevent these people from planting people in the production team to replace his tools, preparations must be made in advance.
Since it was the same director as last time, the tool brand was probably the same as before. Ye Zi immediately found the previous video and noted down the brand of the tools.
If you can't find it in Qingcheng, go to Beijing or Shanghai; you're sure to be able to buy it there.
An axe, a machete, a military knife, an entrenching tool, and a pot. These five items are essential.
Ye Zi also bought five sets of flint online, mainly as a precaution.
After making all the necessary preparations, Ye Zi remained calm and focused, checking the registration website daily while researching information.
Besides him and retired soldier Wang Zhuangyan, other people's information was also gradually placed on the homepage.
Many people were rejected immediately after signing up. Yezi looked at their profiles and realized that everyone who could participate in the show was a master.
There are wilderness enthusiasts who have lived in the wilderness all their lives, retired soldiers, and survivors who have received professional wilderness training.
