Wilderness Survival with Druid System

Chapter 658 7: Arrival in Australia

The seed player selection is over.Liu Yu continued, "Now that the seed players have been selected, let's divide the teams into Team One and Team Two."

"According to the agreed rules for dividing the teams, seed player, you get to choose four members for Team One."

Hearing this, Chen Wen's eyes lit up.

Me, choose?

He instinctively glanced at Hua Yun and received confirmation from him.

Chen Wen said, "Hua Yun."

After speaking, Chen Wen looked at Zhao and received a shake of the head in return.

Chen Wen was taken aback. Mr. Zhao isn't coming?

Then how should I choose? I don't know any of them!

Just as Chen Wen was lost in thought, his peripheral vision caught sight of Feng Zhong, and suddenly an idea popped into his mind!

Chen Wen cleared his throat and said, "Actually, Mr. Feng's words reminded me that we young people lack experience, which is our shortcoming. So after considering, I've decided to invite Mr. Feng to join my team, as an elder, to guide us on survival."

The reason for choosing Feng Zhong wasn't that Chen Wen wanted to bring trouble upon himself.

The Eight Extremes Challenge is an individual competition; the significance of the team is not very large, just a joint participation in a challenge.

For those who don't care about the association, they can even directly refuse to form a team and participate in the challenge on their own.

Hearing this, Feng Zhong's expression changed.

He was so angry with Chen Wen's words that he was about to jump up!

Damn it!

It's bad enough you took my spot!

Now you want me to join your team and follow your command?

Damn!

Just as Feng Zhong was about to speak.

The chairman intervened again, saying, "That's great!"

His eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Chen Wen's idea is excellent! Just right, you and Mr. Feng haven't been on good terms before, this is an opportunity to turn hostility into friendship. I'll decide, Mr. Feng, you join Chen Wen's team!"

Feng Zhong's vision went dark.

He was almost spitting blood from anger!

What the hell!

Why is it always like this?

This "Mr. Feng" was really annoying to hear!

And being in a team with Chen Wen, it's impossible to repair their relationship!

To block someone's financial path is as grave as killing their parents!

The seat of a seed player involves substantial interests!

One chance to resurrect would allow Feng Zhong to participate in survival once more, and if he succeeds, the rewards could be millions of US dollars!

How could he reconcile with Chen Wen?

But being in a team with Chen Wen, as the seed player, Chen Wen is undoubtedly the team leader.

After participating in the challenge, unless he disregards the opinions of the association and directly breaks away to participate in the Eight Extremes Challenge on his own.

Otherwise, he would definitely have to join Chen Wen in the common Eight Extremes Challenge, and in some situations, his actions would be subject to a certain extent of Chen Wen's constraints.

How could the proud Feng Zhong agree?

But now that the chairman personally decided this, nobody could change it anymore.

However, being in a team with Chen Wen also had some benefits.

At least he could find ways to make things difficult for Chen Wen, making him uncomfortable as well.

Feng Zhong sighed and temporarily accepted his fate.

...

After selecting Feng Zhong, Chen Wen fell into contemplation again.

But this time, Ding Jinyu proactively stepped out: "Let me join too, I also have survival experience."

That made sense.

Chen Wen did not refuse either.

And Feng Zhong's complexion improved a little, as this person was from his small circle, which made him feel more secure.

As for the last member of Team One.

Zhao calmly suggested, "Just let Xu go too. Xu has a straightforward personality, perfect for balancing the atmosphere."

Xu, naturally, was Xu Qiang, who had just been sarcastic to Feng Zhong.

Xu Qiang was stunned for a second but didn't oppose.

Chen Wen grinned.

Zhao can't be dealt with!

He didn't want to team up with Xu Qiang, so he pushed Xu to him, yet Chen Wen couldn't refuse.

Helplessly, Chen Wen nodded to Mr. Xu: "With the guidance of Xu Qiang, that would naturally be great."

Upon hearing this, Xu Qiang smirked: "Alright then, don't think I don't know you all have issues with me, but joining Chen Wen's team is fine. I'm mainly here for the Desolate Extreme challenge."

Zhao chuckled, while Chen Wen awkwardly fell silent for a moment.

With that, the team selection ended.

The outcome was quite dramatic.

The two most conflicting individuals were in one team, along with the straightforward-talking Xu Qiang.

This team is very likely to erupt in conflict right after the start!

Liu Yu was still pondering the appropriateness of the team division but shook his head when he thought of Chen Wen's miraculous survival skills.

Oh well, let it be.

Who knows, maybe when they get there, Chen Wen will survive on his own, which wouldn't be too bad either.

Moreover, Chen Wen's network abroad... seems quite extensive.

He likely won't be short of teammates.

...

After the team division ended, the training also officially concluded.

Chen Wen had a brief discussion with the team and confirmed their participation in the Desolate Extreme—Australia inland survival challenge.

Then, he chose to leave the capital.

At the same time, Chen Wen also contacted the second team.

In subsequent challenges, if they need to participate in certain challenges cleared by Feng Zhong, the two teams would need to redistribute members.

To ensure that for each challenge, it's best to have five participants.

Of course, less than five people can also sign up, but that wouldn't provide much advantage.

Upon leaving the capital.

Chen Wen first went to the zoo to take a look and informed the zoo director Jiang Xue about the construction progress on his island.

With Jiang Xue's live broadcast becoming increasingly popular, many animals found new homes.

After all, this place often received wild animals sent by conservation organizations; once these animals lost their ability to move, they had to be returned to the wild.

Those that couldn't be returned had to be sent to zoos for care.

Since their place was small, they often couldn't accommodate all the animals, so sending animals to other zoos was common.

Besides, ever since Chen Wen's legendary rescue on Ailao Mountain became famous.

The animals here drew a lot of attention.

Many animals became popular, and other zoos eagerly came to receive them.

Jiang Xue, after carefully assessing the qualifications from the other side, also sent animals to suitable zoos.

The zoo gradually became empty.

Except for the animals entrusted by Chen Wen, most other animals had been sent away.

Thus, when Chen Wen asked again.

Jiang Xue agreed to become the head keeper, or director, of Chen Wen's zoo.

And Jiang Xue was responsible for inviting patient professionals to the zoo to become staff members.

Chen Wen certainly wasn't short of money.

The salaries he offered were quite tempting to many.

So before the animals officially arrived on the island, 80% of the staff had already been decided.

"I'll be going to Australia for a while in the near future, please take good care of things here, Director Jiang."

Chen Wen said, informing Jiang Xue about the animals by Great Slave Lake.

Jiang Xue chuckled, "Why so polite? Don't worry, I'll take good care of the animals, but you need to be careful with your survival, Australia is not like the places you've been before, there are too many poisonous insects and snakes there, be cautious."

"Hmm."

Chen Wen nodded, expressing gratitude for Jiang Xue's advice.

Additionally, Chen Wen left a sum of money to make sure the zoo was well-funded.

Jiang Xue initially wanted to refuse since the zoo's income was gradually catching up.

The live stream rewards and occasional sales revenue weren't insignificant.

But seeing Chen Wen's determination, Jiang Xue accepted it.

Without much more conversation, Chen Wen boarded the chartered flight arranged by the association, heading to Australia.

What kind of stories will this trip to Australia bring?

On the plane, as the continent of Australia gradually came into view.

Chen Wen's expression was filled with anticipation, along with rare nervousness.

But soon, he composed himself.

The desolate Australian desert, here I come!
