The ever-changing star starts with a rice cooker.

"Hmm, it seems my judgment was wrong. This beverage machine guy's transformation ability is not a regular transformation, but an extremely rare manifestation of world power. This ability is very rare, and I've only seen it a few times."

Bai Xiao had to admit that she had misjudged him.

But he still wanted to salvage his dignity, so he paused before continuing.

"However, this ability also has obvious flaws, namely its difficulty to control. Personally, I think his transformation is purely a gamble. If what he transforms into is useless, then he's doomed. And gambling is not an ability that can lead to ultimate success!"

Zhen Hong nodded repeatedly. What else could she do but accept the guests she had invited, even if she had to grit her teeth and bear it?

"Okay, Mr. Bai Xiao should have explained it very clearly this time."

Unfortunately, the viewers in the live stream didn't see it that way.

They're all just saying "stubborn!"

The comments section was flooded with messages, some believing and some not.

"I think this beverage machine student is exceptionally talented; I bet he'll come in first!"

"Seriously? You guys really think a vending machine can win first place? The Wilderness World isn't without monsters. What do we do when we encounter one? Spray the drink in its face?"

"I think it's good that this team has lasted this long. But they still haven't solved the food problem. They'll be starving by nightfall and won't be able to move tomorrow."

"I think we'll be eliminated tonight!"

"Sigh, it seems that only the squad that eats bloodworms can hold out for a little longer."

"I just saw a small team encounter a huge poisonous scorpion. I wonder if they can defeat it."

……

Bai Xiao also watched the live comments on the screen next to her.

He chuckled to himself. "Trying to hold out until tomorrow?"

The temperature difference in the desert at night was enough to eliminate this team that only drank beverages.

Fine, I'll bear with it a little longer and announce it tonight.

This lousy squad almost ruined his reputation built up over many years; it's truly despicable.

When that vending machine comes out, I'm going to make him...

Come over and take a picture with me!

The ability of a beverage machine to transform itself is indeed rare; I had to take a picture to remember it.

In the desert, the teams continued forward.

In less than a day, it seems that a third of the teams have already been eliminated.

Regardless of the rest, at least in terms of willpower, they are not a problem.

As darkness fell, the heat finally began to dissipate.

At this point, Ning Du and his group realized that traveling at night was not the right thing to do.

One reason is that the spatial rift is hidden by the darkness of night, making it easy to go astray.

Furthermore, at night, many unfamiliar insects begin to emerge from the ground, and there are also strange roars in the distance, which are quite eerie.

"No, we can't keep going, let's go camping!"

"Okay, Xiaomei, how are you? Are you feeling better? We might have to rely on you tonight!"

"I'm fine, Big Eyes, you get the heat going first!"

"Okay!"

It got completely dark.

Ning Du and the others found a windproof sand dune to camp under.

Now watch Big Eyes perform. He raises his temperature, and his whole body faintly emits a red glow, instantly transforming into a human-shaped bonfire.

In this way, the heat problem is solved. Ice Beauty, release the ice wall again to seal off the surroundings.

It not only prevents wind and sand erosion, but also blocks insect infestations.

The rest is up to Gao Lao, who will take care of them one by one with his air cannon.

"That's good, our teamwork is still very good."

Ning Du chuckled.

He sat down at the beverage machine. In one day, he had almost finished drinking all the beverages in his body, and he didn't know how to replenish them. He could only wait until tomorrow!

The tall man picked up all the insects he had killed on the ground, including bloodworms, poisonous scorpions, and thorny insects he didn't recognize.

Touching his stomach, the tall man frowned and said, "I'm starving. Can I even eat this stuff?"

Big Eyes thought for a moment and said, "It should be edible if we roast it."

"Why didn't you suggest adding some cumin? Ugh, I'm a little hesitant to eat it!"

The tall man hesitated for a long time before daring to take a bite.

Bing Xiaomei rubbed her belly and said, "We definitely need to get something to eat. Should we go out and see if we can find any bigger monsters?"

"Let's not go. Going out to hunt big monsters at night feels like I'd die."

The tall man sighed; they were clearly facing another predicament.

Like them, most other teams are in the same boat.

Apart from Xiao Bo and others from the First Middle School of Najiangshou City, who had stockpiled a large number of bloodworms during the day, the other teams were all worried about what to eat.

Several teams couldn't take it anymore and actually started trying to hunt large monsters in the desert at night.

Inside the studio, host Zhen Hong and expert Bai Xiao, who had just rested for two or three hours, returned right on time.

The camera immediately turned to them, and Zhen Hong smiled, "Welcome back to the studio. After a long and arduous day, we've now entered the crucial moment of elimination—the desert night in another world. Now, please let Mr. Bai Xiao explain the current situation to us."

Bai Xiao nodded and began to scroll through the situation of each team, offering his comments as he went.

"Alright, as we can see now, the remaining teams have entered the critical elimination phase. The danger in the otherworldly desert only begins after nightfall. Look at these teams; they actually dare to hunt medium-sized or larger monsters at night and roam around. If they don't encounter any monsters, it's fine; at most, they'll just waste some energy. But if they do, it's certain that these teams will be eliminated."

Just as Bai Xiao finished speaking, a small team was incredibly lucky to encounter a giant sand scorpion with steel-like skin and pincers larger than a person. With a few quick snaps, the scorpion took down the entire team.

The bloody scenes even had to be immediately censored with mosaics.

"Oh dear. Just as I said, they're eliminated. This is the price of acting rashly without understanding the situation. But don't worry, viewers, the Guardian rescue team will arrive soon. We have dedicated resurrection experts. As long as they're not completely dead, even if they're eaten by scorpions, they can be safely resurrected."

Bai Xiao shook his head and continued commenting on the others, "Look at these teams, they're quite wise. They found a relatively safe place to camp. Even digging a hole and burying themselves in the sand is better than running around aimlessly. Oh, a few teams have started fighting amongst themselves, probably over food. It seems like tonight, a large number of teams will have to be eliminated because of food and water issues."

Bai Xiao smiled and continued swiping, first swiping to Xiao Bo and the others. Bai Xiao commented with a smile, "Look everyone, this is a model team. On-site defense, ironclad protection, and someone even keeps watch at night. Stockpiling bloodworms, ensuring food supply, safe and sound—the image of a champion!"

Finally, Bai Xiao slid to the beverage machine team, which was the team he most wanted to see when they would be eliminated.

"Hmm? The vending machine team is actually pretty good. They're guarding the ice wall and even caught some bugs. Are they going to eat them? Do they have the guts to do it?"
