The next morning.

Chen Wen got in touch with Hua Yun.

When she first heard that Chen Wen had won the championship, Hua Yun felt she must have misheard.

"Champion? Are you joking?"

Chen Wen silently took a picture of the trophy he had already obtained and sent it to Hua Yun.

This trophy is more symbolic and not worth much.

But on Hua Yun's side, there was a long silence.

After a while, Hua Yun asked, "Tell me in detail, how did you pull this off?"

"Hua, it's an international call..."

Chen Wen grinned. Though money isn't an issue, it's better to save when you can.

Hua Yun went silent again.

After a while, she said, "No problem, I'm heading over to your place today, we can talk in person then."

With that, Hua Yun hung up the phone.

Now it was Chen Wen's turn to be confused.

Hua Yun is coming over?

What does she want to do?

...

The championship also required an extra coronation ceremony.

After finishing the conversation with Hua Yun, Chen Wen was led by the program staff for a recording.

It had to be said, foreigners do have a knack for ceremonies.

Being the champion, Chen Wen was asked by the program team to continuously chop logs with the names of the other nine contestants with an axe.

These logs were placed on steps.

Each time Chen Wen chopped a section, he had to clear away the broken wood and move up a step.

When he finished chopping the log with Gaston's name on it.

Chen Wen made a stylish turn with the axe and sat on the throne that symbolized the championship.

Next, golden confetti burst out.

Announcing the champion's title.

Then it was time to hand out the prize money.

The program team readily provided the money and told Chen Wen which hospital to go to for a free medical examination.

The examination mainly included tests for parasites and internal organs.

This was to prevent any subsequent health problems for the contestants.

It must be said, the shows where people had died are indeed different.

Very well organized.

...

In the evening, Hua Yun arrived.

She was in a rush, as if she had some urgent matter.

After greeting Chen Wen, Hua Yun directly went to find Adam.

But before long, Hua Yun returned to Chen Wen frowning.

"What's the matter?"

Chen Wen asked.

Hua Yun shook her head helplessly and said, "I went to find Adam to ask him for a favor."

"Isn't the next season of Wilderness Alone starting soon? The competition for this spot is unexpectedly intense."

Chen Wen asked curiously, "Why is that?"

Hua Yun looked at Chen Wen, a bit envious, and said, "Because this time the prize money is a lot, a whole million US dollars, and there's a slot involved."

A slot?

Chen Wen was puzzled, "Isn't Wilderness Alone supposed to be recognized as the Olympics of wilderness survival? How can there be a slot?"

"This slot is very complex to explain."

Hua Yun didn't want to explain further and said directly, "In short, after Wilderness Alone, there's another crucial challenge that many countries' Adventure Associations are competing for. You just need to know this; it's precisely for this reason the Wilderness Alone participation slot is very critical."

"You currently have a slot, so you don't have to worry too much."

Hua Yun continued, "The investors behind Desert Death Battle are also some of the important investors in Wilderness Alone. If nothing unexpected happens, these three slots are practically guaranteed, and even if there are unexpected events, it's something Roland and Gaston should worry about; you're basically guaranteed a spot in Wilderness Alone."

"But I'm still lacking. This time I came to North America planning to participate in another wilderness challenge to secure a spot."

Chen Wen was a bit overwhelmed.

But soon he figured it out.

The champion of Desert Death Battle gets a ticket to Wilderness Alone, and the champion of Wilderness Alone gets a ticket to another survival challenge.

This time, he accidentally got a ticket to Wilderness Alone.

But Hua Yun didn't have it; she still needs to participate in other challenges for a slot in Wilderness Alone.

Chen Wen said, "I think I heard Adam mention before that he's also joining another challenge to get a championship slot, you guys..."

"If it were just one, I could collaborate with him."

Hua Yun was a bit helpless, "But Adam is participating in a survival challenge in South America, and I need to go to the Yukon Territory."

Yukon Territory?

The place seems to be entering a wintry period, survival could be quite tough at this time.

At this point, Chen Wen suddenly remembered what Liu Yu had said.

He considered asking, "Do you need any help from me?"

Hua Yun was momentarily stunned and instinctively wanted to refuse.

But she furrowed her brows and started considering the viability of Chen Wen's help.

"You already have a slot, this trip to the Yukon might be a bit..."

Hua Yun wasn't very inclined to let Chen Wen get involved.

The Yukon Territory is indeed quite dangerous now!

Winter is coming.

North American grizzlies and black bears are aggressively attacking and devouring everything in sight.

Wolves in packs are also dominating the area.

Even solitary coyotes must band together to survive in the harsh environment.

Not to mention the harsh conditions, extreme cold, and potentially wild criminals and gold seekers out there in the wilderness.

Chen Wen doesn't need to venture into this with a slot already in hand.

"Hey, isn't it just danger?"

Chen Wen said carelessly, "Danger is the last thing I fear. Besides, every wilderness survival feels more like a form of training for me."

"And to secure a good position in Wilderness Alone, I'll be actively seeking out some wilderness challenges myself."

Upon hearing Chen Wen's words, Hua Yun no longer hesitated, "Then you should first hear it out."

"This show is called 'Wilderness Survival: Two Together,' from the name you can tell it requires two people to participate."

"Two people per team, five teams in total, dispersed in different areas for survival."

Chen Wen added, "Sounds pretty simple, just two people surviving, for how many days?"

Hua Yun gave a peculiar smile, "Unlimited."

"Huh?"

Chen Wen was dumbfounded.

Hua Yun quickly explained, "This show is quite special, it doesn't set days as the evaluation criteria. It's judged based on travel distance."

"Contestants are dropped in the snowy mountains upstream of the Yukon River, and each team has to cooperate to descend the mountains, cross glaciers and treelines, to eventually reach the Yukon River."

"Then, they must continue moving downstream along the Yukon River, where they can exchange goods along the way. Trades can be made between contestants or with local residents, ultimately, when everyone can no longer continue, the champion is judged based on the total distance each has traveled."

The strange rule made Chen Wen frown for quite a while.

Just when Hua Yun thought Chen Wen might refuse.

Chen Wen asked, "So if I can survive indefinitely, the show keeps going?"

Hua Yun paused, seemingly not expecting this question from Chen Wen.

She shook her head, "I'm not sure either, maybe they'll let you survive indefinitely? Or maybe they'll force you to keep moving? This is the first time they're hosting this show, nobody really knows what their rules are exactly, but we should be getting specific rules before the competition starts."

Chen Wen nodded, smiling, "Interesting rules, compared to traditional wilderness survival, this seems more to combine wilderness survival with hiking."

Hua Yun nodded as well, "Yes, from the invited contestants, I saw there are world-renowned wilderness hiking experts, with one contestant being Mr. Lei's student."

Chen Wen was surprised, "One of us? Why doesn't he team up with you then?"

Hua Yun shook her head, "First, he's into hiking, doesn't know survival; second, I don't like his personality; third, he's participating with his girlfriend."

"Oh man, you could've just said the third point, the main reason being his girlfriend is joining, that's the key reason."

Chen Wen laughingly said.

Hua Yun rolled her eyes, increasing a single person's resentment against couples by one.

"In total, how do you feel about it?"

Chen Wen nodded slightly, "I think it's worth considering, this show seems quite interesting."

In both his past life and this one, Chen Wen had never heard of such a type of show.

He was very intrigued.
