Chapter 425: Chapter 425: Congratulations on Becoming a Substitute Guest!

Chen Fan looked uneasy at Jiang Yan.

"Bro, are we really going to spend all 100 points at once? What will we do tomorrow?"

Jiang Yan was unconcerned, "We’ve already spent them, why worry about tomorrow? Besides, don’t you know—"

"Know what?"

"Money found must be spent right away, or else you’ll be jinxed."

Chen Fan: "...."

Well, he’s somewhat self-aware.

Tong Xiaoqi couldn’t be bothered anymore.

Before coming here, she had been full of fighting spirit, thinking she could survive on this deserted island for ten days or half a month.

But after arriving, she had only one thought in mind—

I want to flatten myself! I want to be a salted fish!

Fortunately, her teammates seemed to agree with her.

Especially Jiang Yan.

One could even get lucky while being a salted fish.

Just keeps getting better.

What objections could she have?

Guan Xiong also used his points to exchange for a tent.

The items at the exchange point were outrageously expensive, just one tent cost him thirty points.

With no choice, he had to painfully spend another ten points to exchange for some other essentials.

Since their original location was exposed and the spring was occupied by Team A, they had to find a new territory.

As night fell, the forest started to swarm with mosquitoes.

Nina swatted at the mosquitoes, inevitably complaining.

"Our team didn’t have many points to begin with, and now look, we’ve exchanged for so much stuff, and some people really haven’t contributed at all but are still enjoying the resources."

Yu Li couldn’t listen silently anymore.

"Lady Nina, let’s be fair here, if it weren’t for Jiang Li, do you think Team E would have spared you today?"

Nina stopped talking and walked ahead, her face twisted.

The group was fairly lucky as they soon found a reasonably hidden spot.

By the time they had set up the tents, it was already midnight.

Guan Xiong suggested, "We should keep watch tonight."

The survival on the island was now not just about surviving, they needed to tackle survival issues and also guard against other teams that might attack at any time.

The group agreed with Guan Xiong’s suggestion and quickly made a watch schedule.

Guan Xiong watched the first half of the night, Pan Xing took over, and then Nina watched the rest.

Since Jiang Li had used much energy during the day, she was not asked to participate.

Nina was somewhat dissatisfied with the decision, but she had to agree.

As the night deepened, Dragon Ridge Island regained its tranquility, like a resting beast, motionlessly lying in wait on the mysterious sea.

Meanwhile, in the capital.

Jiang Cheng, who had just checked into a hotel, received a call before he could settle in—

"....Hello, is this student Jiang Cheng? We are from the ’Wilderness Survival 30 Days’ program. Congratulations, you’ve been selected as a substitute guest. Can you arrive at Yan City by tomorrow noon?"

Jiang Cheng’s palm was slightly sweaty as he held the phone, his eyes growing deeper.

"I can."

...

...

A sleepless night.

Since she didn’t have to keep watch, Jiang Li slept exceptionally well that night.

But it would have been even better if the morning hadn’t started with a shrill quarrel—

"What happened? Everything was fine when I was on watch in the first half of the night, how come it’s gone now?!"

"It’s not my fault." It was Pan Xing’s voice, "Everything was still there before I went to sleep."

"I already said I was knocked out, obviously, someone came," Nina said, somewhat frantically.

Jiang Li rubbed his eyes.

The corner of the tent was lifted, and Yu Li walked in from outside.

"Something happened," he said with a grave expression, "all our supplies have been stolen."

...

...

Jingcheng Taiqi Training Base.

It wasn’t even dawn yet, but the staff at the base were already nervously busy.

—because today was the day of the debut stage.

[Ahhh! Finally, the debut stage has come, Xiao Qing, you’re too slow!]

[Can’t help it, who told you it’s a live broadcast talent show?]

[Watching the group variety is quite fun too, the people inside are hilarious.]

In these buffering days, some gained fame for their quirky variety show antics, others gathered fans for their self-discipline, and of course, some became internet sensations for their striking looks.

—like Shiguang.

Compared to other dorms’ live streams, Room 401’s audience was several times larger.

The moment the camera turned on, it captured the shouts of enthusiastic fans.

[Ahhh! I want to see Brother Shiguang!!]

[Another day being killed by the handsomeness of the younger brother!]

[How can someone withstand the camera even with a bare face!!]

Having lived here for two days, Jiang Shixu clearly still couldn’t fully adapt.

After a sleepless night, he slowly climbed out of bed with somewhat dark circles under his eyes.

Seemingly aware of the dorm’s cameras and possibly the thousands of eyes behind the camera, he shivered and stuck closely to the corner as he walked to the bathroom.

Just then, he ran right into Liu Qian, who was coming out of the bathroom.

He slapped his chest fiercely, a look of relief on his face.

"Damn, Shiguang, how can you walk so silently? You scared me."

Jiang Shixu’s head hung even lower, and he murmured an apology before quickly darting into the bathroom.

Liu Qian then looked over at Xi Yang with a twisted face, and the two exchanged a shallow look.

After all, compared to others.

This Shiguang was too unusual.

It was enough that he barely spoke and was always moody, but his nocturnal habits had frightened everyone in the room.

Truly not pleasing.

Just like now.

While others were getting ready to go to the cafeteria for breakfast, Jiang Shixu, who had just come out from the bathroom, went straight to the balcony and started gazing up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.

The mixed-race contestant, Adam, had been puzzled by this for several days, and finally, he couldn’t help but ask Liu Qian,

"Qian, do Hua Country people have some tradition of getting up early? Why does Shiguang always go to the balcony to pray?"

Liu Qian: "...."

Don’t ask him; he doesn’t know either.

When they returned from the cafeteria, Jiang Shixu was still standing on the balcony.

The fans in the live stream were still wailing about where their idol had gone.

Liu Qian didn’t want to bother anymore and just let him stand there.

Until the broadcast informed them to gather in the performance studio.

Sounds of packing echoed through the camp, Xi Yang and the others were changing clothes and fetching props, everybody bustling actively.

After all, it was their debut stage, and they definitely needed to be fully prepared.

But after they were all dressed and ready, Jiang Shixu was still standing motionless on the balcony.

Adam had already left, leaving Liu Qian to glance at Xi Yang.

"Captain, should we remind him?"

Xi Yang squinted his eyes, "Remind him? Why?"

Since he came to this training camp, he should take responsibility for himself.

Not hearing the broadcast was his own fault, why should they remind him?
