Chapter 303 The Great Adventure

Viewers in front of the screen were blown away by Qi Xiao's impressive performance.
[Ahhh, Qi-ge is so handsome! My screen is practically cracking from his good looks!]

Holy crap, that's some serious skill! That's incredible, a shortcut I'd never even imagined!

[That wall-top parkour was too wild! Did the production team get enough insurance?]

[This isn't a hunter, it's a snow-covered mountain version of 007!]

My mom asked me why I was kneeling while watching the live stream.

Qi Xiao paused slightly at the edge of the ice wall before leaping down.

His knee-bending cushioning motion was clean and efficient, his tactical boots striking the ice with a crisp sound, the splashing ice shards glittering in the sunlight.

Xu Ying unconsciously held her breath—at this distance, she could clearly see the frost on his brow bone and his sharp, wolf-like eyes.

When Qi Xiao straightened up, the muscle lines under his tactical uniform were taut, and he looked like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath, revealing his full power.

Chen Su took a step forward, his figure as upright as a pine tree, his glacier gray uniform fluttering in the cold wind.

He stretched out his right arm, firmly protecting Xu Ying behind him. Behind his goggles, his sharp eyes were fixed on Qi Xiao, like an insurmountable snow-capped mountain barrier.

Netizens were even more excited!

[Let's fight! Let's battle on the summit of the snow-capped mountain!]

[Ahhh, the two Aces facing off! This scene is so exciting!!]

[Team Leader Chen's way of protecting his wife (scratch that) and teammates was incredibly cool!]

Their eyes killed me eight hundred times over.

Chen Su's snowman stamp, which could unlock hunter name tags, glowed faintly: "Station Chief Xu, you do the puzzle, I'll defend!"

"Okay!" Xu Ying quickly lowered her head, her fingers moving the puzzle pieces rapidly.

Chen Su's white tactical uniform stood out against the snow. He lowered his center of gravity slightly, arms outstretched in a defensive stance, his eyes sharp as a hawk's. Qi Xiao, in his black outfit, was like a shadow. He stretched his neck, a wild smile playing on his lips.

The two moved almost simultaneously.

Chen Su made the first move, throwing a sharp straight punch straight at Qi Xiao's chest. Qi Xiao dodged to the side and reached back to grab the name tag on Chen Su's back.

Chen Su reacted extremely quickly, dodging with a spin and simultaneously sweeping his right leg, forcing Qi Xiao to take two steps back.

The ice was slippery, but the two men moved with unwavering stability. Qi Xiao suddenly changed tactics, feigning to tear at Chen Su's left arm, but in reality, he lowered his body and his right hand reached out towards Chen Su's back like lightning.

Chen Su was prepared. He took a step back to create distance, while simultaneously blocking with his left hand and clawing with his right, aiming straight for Qi Xiao's shoulder.

The two exchanged blows, their movements clean and efficient, without a single unnecessary flourish. Chen Su's every move carried the precision and efficiency of police training, while Qi Xiao's actions were full of wild, explosive power, like a real snow cheetah.

He's so handsome!

Please stop fighting! I'll be heartbroken if anyone gets eliminated!

[Was this a real fight, or was it just a show for Station Master Xu?]

[Team Leader Chen just punched the ice wall so hard it left a mark, and Brother Qi kicked it so hard it cracked. The battle was incredibly intense!]

[Fighting? (X) Peacocks displaying their tails in a fierce competition (V)]

Neither of them gave an inch; both were determined to knock the other unconscious, while Station Chief Xu was busy putting together a jigsaw puzzle. His composure is truly remarkable.

Chen Su's white tactical uniform fluttered in the snow. He slightly bent his knees, his arms outstretched like eagle wings, his fingertips only inches away from Qi Xiao's name tag.

Qi Xiao's black outfit accentuated his sleek muscles. He lowered his center of gravity, like a snow leopard poised to pounce, a dangerous smile playing on his lips.

"boom!"

The two attacked simultaneously, and the muffled sound of their fists colliding echoed through the icy valley.

Chen Su threw a fierce jab straight at Qi Xiao's throat, forcing the opponent to lean back and dodge; Qi Xiao took the opportunity to spin around, his right hand reaching out towards Chen Su's back like a venomous snake.

Amidst the flying ice shards, Chen Su suddenly changed tactics. Using the momentum of Qi Xiao's forward charge, he executed a beautiful over-the-shoulder throw, slamming Qi Xiao onto the ice—but at the last moment, Qi Xiao twisted his waist and broke free.

The black figure moved like a ghost to Chen Su's side, its fingertips already hooking the edge of the name tag.

"Thorn-"

"Thorn-"

Two tearing sounds rang out simultaneously.

The two stepped back two paces, each clutching the other's name tag.

Chen Su's goggles gleamed in the sunlight, and Qi Xiao's wolf fang necklace swayed slightly.

"A draw?" Qi Xiao raised an eyebrow, panting heavily.

Chen Su flicked the ice crystals off his tactical gloves: "Looks like it."

[These fight scenes are better than any action movie!]

Double kill! Double kill!

[I screamed so hard when Captain Chen did that over-the-shoulder throw that my neighbor called the police.]

[Was the waist strength that Qi Ge used to break free real?]

In this moment of lightning and fire -

"It's all put together!" Xu Ying's cheer suddenly rang out.

The last piece of the puzzle in her hand fit perfectly into the groove.

The ice gate at the end of the maze burst open with a roar, and the dawn of victory gilded the flag of the Snow Mountain Guard.

"Congratulations to the Snow Mountain Guard Team for successfully escorting the Heart of the Snowland to its destination!"

The production team announced the final battle results through a megaphone: "The Snow Mountain Guardians have won, and the Glacier Hunters have narrowly lost!"

Chen Su and Qi Xiao exchanged a glance after hearing the result.

Chen Su slowly opened his palm, and Qi Xiao's name tag crumpled between his fingers.

When he looked up, his glacial gray pupils still held a lingering fighting spirit: "Have you experienced the police force's grappling techniques, Boss Qi?"

Qi Xiao rubbed the name tag of Chen Su clutched in his fingers, a wild smile spreading across his face: "Hunters have a habit—"

He suddenly took a half-step closer, the wolf fang necklace around his neck making a soft tinkling sound: "If the prey escapes, we'll chase it to the ends of the earth and bring it back."

Holding the crystal trophy for the "Best Team Award" presented by the program team, Xu Ying turned around and saw the two standing not far away talking. Her eyes curved into crescents: "Wow, you guys were fighting so fiercely just now, and now you're chatting so congenially. Do you feel like heroes cherish each other?"

She jogged closer, her hair still dusted with gold powder from the celebration. "You guys seemed to have great chemistry while fighting, and you've known each other before? You must be really close."

She raised her crystal glass, the light reflecting off the ice crystals dancing between the three of them: "How about we have a celebration dinner together later? We can spar again afterwards..."

Seeing Xu Ying's bright eyes, Qi Xiao chuckled helplessly, "...You can eat."

He glanced at Chen Su and shrugged, "Let's forget about the competition."

Chen Su took off his tactical gloves and added expressionlessly, "Actually, we're not that close. We've only worked together a few times."

The air was suddenly quiet.

Xu Ying blinked, nearly slipping the crystal glass from her hand: "...Eh?"

At this moment, a member of the production crew walked forward carrying a box, and the assistant director shouted through a megaphone: "The Glacier Hunters team failed and needs to accept the punishment of a Great Adventure Challenge. Please come over and draw your Great Adventure Challenge cards!"

The four guests from the Glacier Hunters team stepped forward and drew their own Adventure Challenge Cards in turn.
