Aaron and his friends were in such a good position that if you wanted to get to the top you had to pass by them; there was no way around them.
The male cubs who climbed up one after another were all aware of this.
The mountain wall is very large, but there are not many suitable footholds for climbing near the top. Just three insect cubs can cut off the road to the top, but their positions are very scattered, which means they cannot help and watch over each other.
It also means that they need to look after the place they occupy alone. When scattered male cubs climb up, they can indeed look after it, but when seven or eight or dozens of male cubs climb up together, they are more likely to show flaws and panic. As long as they seize the flaws and swarm up to tear it bigger, they can break through this obstacle.
The male cubs who understood this clearly did not climb up anymore. They stopped and looked fiercely at Aaron and the others who were in the upper position.
The female insects outside the field soon realized that the reason why the male cubs who were close to the top of the climb suddenly stopped was that they were waiting for more male cubs, and they would start to fight back when the number of male cubs reached a certain level.
Many times, in addition to having an excellent geographical location, numbers and momentum are also of paramount importance. The male cubs try to use their absolute numbers and momentum to force Aaron and others to reveal their flaws.
When enemies that outnumber you by several times swarm towards you with ferocious eyes, anyone with a low mental endurance will easily become cowardly and reveal their flaws.
The sea breeze rolled up the waves that hit the mountain walls, one after another. The stars were still around them, clearly reflecting the gnashing expressions of the male cubs. The glowing fish in the sea occasionally surfaced to look around, as if they felt the strong anger, and then dived back into the sea.
Wei An, who climbed up here, looked at the male cubs who stopped here and tilted his head in confusion, as if he didn't understand why they all stopped here.
The male cub next to him took a look at his innocent and cute appearance, hesitated for a moment, and finally told him their plan.
After listening to the plan, Wei An nodded solemnly with a stern face.
It was the first time for Wei An to participate in such an important and powerful plan. He imitated them and made a ferocious expression on his face, but there was a slight glimmer of excitement in his eyes.
As the first male cub started to move, the rest of the male cubs swarmed over.
Male cubs began to fall from the cliff again. Some fell directly to the sea and were caught by the floating platforms that turned into clouds. Some grabbed onto rocks again after sliding down for a distance, or hung in the air by clinging to the gaps, and started to climb up again after stabilizing their bodies.
In order to grab rocks and cracks while falling, they slid down close to the mountain wall. This practice caused their arms, faces, and knees to be worn out. Even so, they still repeated falling and climbing.
They fell down again and again and climbed up again and again. Those tender and fair faces are now covered with dust and blood, but under the shining stars, they reveal a sense of ruthlessness and determination.
The female insects who were screaming with cuteness suddenly calmed down after seeing this scene.
They looked at the unyielding spirit on the male cubs' faces and suddenly realized that although the male cubs had been at the top of society since birth, although they were pampered, and although in their memories the male cubs were beings that needed protection, they were still Zerg, and the ferocity of being Zerg was in their genes.
They clearly know that adult male insects are not inferior to them in all aspects, but most of them have bad tempers and personalities, are cruel and indifferent to life.
However, when facing male insects, they subconsciously still classify them as the ones who need protection. This is due to genes and instincts.
This is even more so when facing male cubs, because nearly half of the male cubs have an infant mortality rate. The females almost treat them as fragile glass, and even think that there is no need to be serious about competing for victory, and just play around and have fun.
They ignored the fact that the male cubs belonged to the Zerg genes. No matter how much they loved and admired them, they could not deny that deep down in their hearts they were actually secretly despising the male cubs.
They forget that their desire to protect male insects only comes from genes and instincts, from the protection of the continuation of the race, not that male insects are inherently weak and need protection.
Claiming to be protectors, they even subconsciously believe that male cubs cannot participate in any highly competitive games or do anything dangerous.
The scene before them woke them up. Male cubs are never weaker than female cubs, and male insects are never weaker than female insects!
After waking up, they still cheered for the male cubs, but this time they no longer thought they were just fighting, but watched their various performances seriously.
A destined long offensive and defensive battle unfolded on the mountain wall. One side kept trying to break through the defense line, while the other side held its position without moving an inch. The scene was tense for a while.
Wei An, who had fallen once, climbed up again. There were more scars on his soft face. At the moment Aaron made a move, he suddenly let go of the stone he was holding tightly, and his entire upper body suddenly hung in the air. Amid exclamations, he quickly grabbed Aaron's arm and held it tightly.
Shang You suddenly stood up from his seat outside the venue and sat back down. In a short period of time, he stood up and sat down several times. His heart was lifted and dropped with Wei An's experience.
Aaron on the cliff was startled, then swung his arms desperately, trying to throw Vian off. This was the first time that a male cub hugged his arm. He had been very careful in the past to avoid being pulled down, but he didn't expect that this time he would be hugged by this seemingly soft little male cub.
The last time Vian grabbed Hosk's foot, he broke free by repeatedly pushing his hand with his other foot, and he himself fell down. Halfway through, Ferid, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, grabbed him and pulled him to the side. He barely grabbed a protruding rock and did not fall vertically.
This time he learned his lesson and simply hugged Aaron's arm. Thanks to his skillful movements of hugging his brothers' thighs in the past, he was not thrown off.
It wasn't so easy to succeed in the first place, Aaron had always been very careful about this, but because the male cubs kept attacking him non-stop, he was a little tired, and in that moment of daze, Vian seized the opportunity.
When Ferid and the others stopped and waited for the other males to climb up, Aaron, Hawks and Talley understood their intention.
As time passed, Aaron, who was gradually exhausted, realized that their best choice at this time was to give up blocking the male cubs and instead rush to reach the peak first. In that case, although the goal of stopping other male cubs would not be achieved, they could still advance smoothly.
If they continue like this, when their physical strength is exhausted, they may not even be able to advance.
But even though they knew clearly what was the best thing to do, Aaron and the others still did not move.
As male cubs, they have been in a very high status since they hatched and are extremely proud in their bones. Although they are still young, they will never allow anyone to retreat in the competition except for the winners and losers.
Aaron grabbed the raised point with one hand and swung the other hand wildly, trying to throw Vian off. If it weren't for the fact that his feet needed to stabilize his body, he would have wanted to kick him.
At this time, except for his toes which were barely on the foothold, Vian's entire upper body was suspended in the air, and was constantly swaying left and right with Aaron's swing. Occasionally, the swing was too big, and his toes left the foothold, and his whole body was suspended in the air, which often caused exclamations from Shang You, Killochuan, Cole, and Naiman outside the field.
Chu Yi, one of the cadets, clenched his fists and his whole body tensed up subconsciously. This female, who seemed strange and powerful in the eyes of other cadets, actually showed rare nervousness.
Chu Yiyi's palms were covered in sweat. He originally thought that he would not see Wei An for a long time after entering the military academy, but he did not expect to see him again so soon, and in such a scene.
When Wei An stood on the ring and waved to him, Chu Yi, who just realized that Wei An was going to participate in the competition, felt his heart hanging in the air.
But he didn't expect that after just not seeing him for a while, this little boy who was always soft and crybaby in his impression had become so strong!
Just as the two sides continued to fight, suddenly, the entire mountain wall began to shake, and pieces of rubble rolled down with the vibration.
The original plan was to shake off the male cubs still on the cliff when the ten qualified candidates were announced.
However, they did not expect this scene to appear, and they did not expect that within the time they estimated, there would be more than ten male cubs who could reach the top.
The male cubs, who had already consumed a lot of energy due to the repeated cycle of climbing and falling, were even less able to keep their bodies steady because of this sudden change, and dozens of them fell one after another in just a few tens of seconds.
Aaron, Hosk and Talley who occupied the high ground were not in a much better situation. The male cubs on the cliff had consumed their physical strength from repeated climbing, while they had consumed a lot of mental and physical strength due to long-term high concentration and repeated pushing of the male cubs down.
They almost lost their grip when the mountain wall shook, and their minds were frightened out of a trance. At that moment, Vian, who was holding Aaron with both hands, kicked hard with his short legs, and with the help of the reaction force from his feet and the strength of Aaron's hands, his whole body flipped upside down.
The moment he flipped over, Vian stepped on Aaron's shoulder and used the force to grab the raised point higher up.
Wei'an completed this set of movements amid the whistling of smoke and dust. It was fast, fierce and accurate, which did not match his childish face at all. No one knew how he found the foothold so accurately in the dust that almost blocked his vision.
This sudden action caused exclamations from outside the venue.
Even Alhandra was shocked.
After standing firmly, Vian looked down at Aaron at his feet, puffed out his cheeks, and began to try to kick his hands that were holding the raised point.
However, his legs were too short to reach it, so Aaron reached out to grab his feet and tried to pull him down. Wei An noticed this and retracted his foot instantly.
Not only Vian, but also the male cubs such as Ferid and Lacey seized this opportunity to launch a counterattack.
Amid the rolling of dust and rubble, the male cubs launched a final counterattack on the mountain wall that was shaking more and more violently.
It was difficult to launch a counterattack from a low place to a high place, not to mention on a violently shaking mountain wall. For a moment, the male cubs fell down like dumplings in water, crackling.
Wei An helped from above and was nearly pulled down several times. He held on to the gap tightly and finally got rid of the pull.
When everything settled down, there was only a little male cub sitting on the silent peak.
At this moment, the surrounding stars rushed down from the sky, and the glowing little fish in the sea floated out of the sea one after another, turning into small points of light and rushing towards the top of the mountain. Thousands of lights converged into one point, and the picture was beautiful and magnificent.
The little male cub on the top of the mountain was sitting on the ground. His short-sleeved shirt with blue and silver background and purple patterns was already in tatters. His black hair was stuck to his forehead with sweat and dust. His dirty little hands were holding a substantial ball of light composed of countless light spots.
He was the only one who advanced in this competition, so he didn't have to participate in the third round of the finals. He was the winner among the cub chiefs.
Wei An, who was sitting on the ground, had big blue eyes on his dirty face that were slightly curved, with a sparkling smile and a hint of pride in them.
I told you, he is the best!
