It was supposed to be a casual get-together, but really it was just a meal to get to know each other and chat about our shared experiences, like the wilderness survival trip we'd just finished.
Zhao Xiaogu spoke first, saying that she immediately began learning about this subject after registering, and at the same time asked her management team to find her a teacher.
As the top female wilderness survival expert in China, Sparrow Sister was immediately invited by Zhao Xiaogu's agent to start teaching.
Although it was only five days, Zhao Xiaogu learned some useful knowledge, especially in the area of choosing tools.
Zhao Xiaogu is a tough one. She only brought clothes, pants, shoes, and tools. She didn't bring any underwear. This is no secret. I didn't hide it from her when we chatted because she was in charge of clearing the land, and tools were too important.
To my utter surprise, I was struck by good luck once I arrived at the survival zone.
In fact, the location they were assigned to is unlikely to become a marine debris dump.
The production team knew that marine debris is just trash for people living in cities, but for wilderness survival, it's like a windfall.
The location was chosen after investigation, so the chances of this happening are very small.
However, an unexpected high tide brought a bunch of things ashore, and after investigation, it was found that this was a result of the typhoon.
However, typhoons are natural phenomena that are beyond human control, so it cannot be considered cheating, nor can Zhao Xiaogu's eligibility for the competition be revoked.
What can you do if someone has that kind of luck?
Han Xijun's situation is similar to Huang Jingyu's, focusing on hunting skills. However, their situations are different. Han Xijun has no archery skills and his survival location is an island.
But he can swim, and he's quite good at it, so he focuses more on how to get food from the sea.
Fishing skills are essential, but tools are equally important. Since Zhao Xiaogu had already brought his fishing gear, he chose a harpoon.
With his swimming and diving abilities, it will be much easier not to shoot fish in the water. You can also find some giant clams and lobsters that like to hide on the seabed.
However, their island is small and the surrounding resources are limited, insufficient to support their survival for an extended period.
Finally, there's Wu Jing, who admitted that he learned a lot during his time training in the special forces for filming, including not only combat skills but also how to survive behind enemy lines.
It was this course on how to survive behind enemy lines that enabled Wu Jing to navigate wilderness survival with ease.
If it weren't for the final typhoon, he could have competed for the championship.
After getting her phone back, Ye Zi knew the situation of each team's survivors. She didn't expect that two Chinese teams would make it to the end.
Finally, there were Ye Zi and two others. Ye Zi registered online, was on the grassland, and initially thought the chances of being selected were very small, so she didn't pay much attention to the selection results.
He didn't find out immediately after being selected; he only found out after receiving several phone calls and finally a text message.
At this point, it was too late for him to set off to draw lots, so he could only let Er Ya draw lots.
When Er Ya drew lots, she first drew the Alaska region. Then, when it came time to draw the order, Huang Jingyu thought ladies should go first, so he drew third, while Huang Jingyu drew second.
Ye Zi, who was unable to attend the draw, naturally became the first.
The original owner wasn't stupid. After learning about the survival location, her first reaction was to build a sturdy shelter to deal with attacks from bears, wolves, and various other animals.
When it came time to choose tools, he had to give up on the fire starter and fishing tackle. One reason was that he could make a fire even without the fire starter, and the other was that he disliked the sea and instinctively resisted obtaining food from it.
At this point, Wu Jing asked:
"Ye Zi, I've seen you hunt with a bow and arrow. Why did you give up the bow and arrow and choose an entrenching tool instead? If you had chosen the bow and arrow, you wouldn't have gone hungry in the early game."
This leaf, not knowing what the original owner was thinking, could only bite the bullet and explain:
“There are a lot of aggressive animals in Alaska. I think there’s a high probability that they will come to us on their own. With a machete and an axe, killing them won’t be a problem, and we can get enough food.”
Wu Jing nodded. It was understandable and normal for them to think that way, as long as they dared to take action.
Moreover, Ye Zi did create excellent survival conditions for the team with those tools.
"Ye Zi, have you ever hunted wolves on the grassland? When I watched the video, you didn't seem afraid of wolves at all," Han Xijun asked doubtfully.
“I’ve never fought one, but I’ve seen them several times. If it were a pack of wolves, I would have to give way, but there’s only one old wolf, so I’m confident I can win,” Ye Zi continued to explain.
"Ye Zi, how strong are you exactly? I saw a lot of people talking about this when I watched the live stream replay," Zhao Xiaogu also expressed her doubts.
"I don't know either, but it seems like up to a ton wouldn't be a problem," Ye Zi thought for a moment and gave a rough estimate.
Although the weight was astonishing, he had already shown it to Huang Jingyu and Er Ya, and he didn't dare to gamble that his two teammates would keep the secret.
"One ton? Two thousand catties? Twenty of me?" Zhao Xiaogu exclaimed in shock.
Ye Zi glanced at her weight, which was around 100 pounds, and nodded.
"So, has your strength always been this great? Or did it suddenly awaken after you went to Alaska?" Han Xijun asked, following up.
“I used to be strong, but I never had the chance to use my full strength until I participated in the show.”
"It's innate, there's no comparison." The yellow whale looked helpless, then said:
“Watching a video and seeing it in person are two completely different things. When Yezi was moving things with all her might to build the shelter, I felt like I was just a little chick, pitifully weak.”
“That’s right, especially when Ye Zi hit the black bear, I was terrified while I was in the tree. It was the first time I realized that large carnivores at the top of the food chain in the wild were nothing special,” Er Ya added with a wry smile.
The others could only smile wryly. How could someone possess the strength of a ton? Was this even human?
Wu Jingdao:
"I've watched some strongman competitions abroad, and the human strength can indeed reach about a ton, but that's the result of long-term training."
Leaves are like food that's been fed by God, and the kind that's been stuffed directly into your mouth.
"That's right, but speaking of which, I've watched the video of Ye Zi fighting the brown bear one-on-one many times, and every time I feel my heart pounding."
"Ye Zi, were you scared when you fought the brown bear?" Zhao Xiaogu continued to ask.
"A little, but the brown bear's fighting strength was less than half at that time, so I think it wouldn't have been a problem to beat it to death."
"If it weren't for the damage inflicted earlier, I wouldn't have dared to chase after him and engage in melee combat."
Back on the cruise ship, Er Ya and Huang Jingyu watched the video of the one-on-one fight, and no matter how many times they watched it, they still found it unbelievable.
