"Could it be that our contestant Xu Fan found something like white phosphorus?"

A viewer expressed their opinion through a comment. White phosphorus ignites at around forty degrees Celsius—a little friction and it burns.

"White phosphorus is even harder to get, isn't it..."

"I wonder if Brother Qiang knows how our contestant Xu Fan did it."

For a moment, the audience watching the livestream was utterly puzzled, hoping that Brother Qiang, an expert in wilderness survival, could answer their questions.

However...

Even Brother Qiang, who was well-versed in all kinds of life skills, was at a loss right now.

"It seems our contestant Xu Fan has a special fire-starting technique..."

After noticing the flood of comments, Brother Qiang could only weakly utter this one line.

How did contestant Xu Fan start the fire?

How would I know?

That scene just now completely hit a blind spot in my knowledge!

Yes.

Even Brother Qiang, with his rich wilderness survival experience, couldn't understand Xu Fan's move now.

Of course, this vague answer didn't dampen the audience's spirits.

On the contrary, it made everyone happy.

"Even Brother Qiang can't understand Xu Fan's move? Doesn't that mean our contestant Xu Fan is even better at survival than Brother Qiang?"

"I think so. I'm a loyal fan of Brother Qiang, level thirty-two badge, never missed a single stream, but based on performance, contestant Xu Fan is even better than Brother Qiang."

"To be fair, whether it's mental fortitude, physical fitness, or wilderness survival knowledge and hands-on skills, contestant Xu Fan is truly the best I've ever seen! It's no surprise he has a fire-starting technique we can't understand!"

The entire livestream room not only erupted in heated discussion but also began using all sorts of wild ideas to find a reasonable explanation for Xu Fan.

If Xu Fan in the Forbidden Land could see these comments.

His mood would definitely be quite subtle.

He never expected that casually starting a fire would cause such a stir.

Of course...

Right now, Xu Fan knew nothing about the livestream room's situation.

He set up camp beside the Snow Wolf King's corpse and began focusing on roasting the meat.

As the wolf meat turned over the fire, it occasionally let out a "sizzling" sound, with blood and oil dripping onto the flames.

A fragrant meat smell drifted in all directions.

But just as the meat was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, a pair of flickering green dots caught Xu Fan's eye.

"Hm?"

Xu Fan's gaze sharpened, and he glanced over.

Although the sky had completely darkened and visibility was low, he could still clearly see, about ten meters away, a pair of green eyes staring fixedly at him.

Soon...

The livestream room's audience also noticed this detail.

After all, in a night without lights, any glow stood out.

"What's that?"

"Looks like eyes. Nocturnal animals have special eyes that reflect light to improve night vision..."

"Wait, doesn't that mean Xu Fan has run into another beast?"

"You've got to be kidding me. I've been watching other countries' contestants, and they haven't run into that many beasts!"

One stone stirred a thousand ripples.

After Xu Fan dealt with the Snow Wolf King, everyone thought they could relax their minds and enjoy Xu Fan's eating stream.

But unexpectedly, just as the wolf meat was done roasting, Xu Fan had encountered another beast!

And many contestants from other countries hadn't even faced dangerous beasts yet!

Comparing this way, contestant Xu Fan's constitution seemed to attract beasts easily!

"I think it's because Xu Fan is the only contestant who's entered the forest so far? Sure, the Neon Nation contestant found a water source, but compared to the forest our contestant found, it's no contest."

"Possible. That big forest having many beasts makes sense."

"Speaking of which, since the Snow Wolf King is the Forest Overlord, other beasts shouldn't be as strong, right? Maybe it's no problem?"

The audience buzzed with discussion, once again breaking into a cold sweat for Xu Fan's predicament.

Xu Fan had indeed killed the Snow Wolf King, but judging by the situation.

It wasn't that Xu Fan's combat strength was that impressive.

It was simply that his luck was extremely good.

He just happened to encounter the Snow Wolf King in the midst of an illness, and that was how he managed to snatch a major kill.

But...

No one can be lucky forever, right?

What if this beast happened to be a healthy specimen...

"But didn't our Xu Fan just get Wrist Strength Enhancement from the treasure chest? He should be able to take on a beast, right?"

"Our contestant Xu Fan seems quite calm."

Every viewer was now watching Xu Fan's every move.

Afraid that the owner of those eyes might suddenly charge forward.

But Xu Fan's demeanor showed little fluctuation.

At most, he glanced around to see if any other beasts were surrounding him.

"Just one, huh."

Xu Fan muttered to himself.

And judging by the height of those eyes from the ground, this beast wasn't very large in build.

If it dared to charge, he could finish it with one slash.

"You were drawn here by the smell of this roasted meat, weren't you?"

Xu Fan curled his lips, attempting to communicate with the other party.

Then, Xu Fan raised his right hand, used the Machete to slice off a small piece of wolf meat, and tossed it directly a short distance in front of the beast.

If it wanted to eat the meat, it would have to step out of the darkness and expose itself to the firelight.

But then, it would also lose the shelter of the night.

At first, the beast resisted fiercely, unwilling to emerge from the darkness.

Yet it was both tired and hungry.

Its stomach kept rumbling loudly.

The sound was especially clear in the silent night.

After about a minute, the beast finally couldn't hold back any longer. It pushed off the ground with all four limbs, charging out of the darkness like an arrow shot from a bow.

Its movements were clean and swift, and it bit down on the piece of meat on the ground in one go.

At the same time, its figure was revealed under the glow of the firelight.

It was a pure white lone wolf, small in stature, only about one meter and twenty centimeters tall.

Its body was covered in wounds of all sizes, some parts stained red with blood.

There was a hole through one of its ears, clear from front to back.

It looked like it had been bitten through by sharp fangs.

Then.

The mysterious voice and the official notification appeared together.

[Yan Kingdom contestant Xu Fan has discovered a Forbidden Land creature!]

[Name: Female Snow Wolf!]

[Danger Level: D-rank, offspring of the former Snow Wolf King, driven out of the pack for refusing to become the new Snow Wolf King's mate, possesses extraordinary bloodline talent! Has been seeking an opportunity for revenge!]

After seeing the introduction of this new beast, all the viewers were completely stunned!

Its body size was only about one-fifth of the Snow Wolf King's, yet its danger level was the same!

And...

It had been looking to take revenge on the Snow Wolf King all along!

Didn't that mean this creature's combat power was extremely terrifying?

And what was this bloodline talent all about?

Could it be that the beasts in the Forbidden Land had some kind of special ability?

This...

Things were about to take a turn for the worse!
