On Cishu Island, two girls who had a crazy night of fun last night were lying on a big bed in a messy and untidy manner, sleeping soundly. At the same time, at the top of the distant and quiet polar region, when the first ray of morning light shyly peeked out of the horizon, the most gentle and mysterious moment of the day came between the cracks of the icebergs. The morning light penetrated the heavy clouds like a thread, and sprinkled on the cracks of the glaciers carved by time, covering this cold world with a layer of light golden light.

Deep in the cracks, the light is refracted and scattered by the irregular ice walls, forming mottled light and shadows, like a natural maze, mysterious and magnificent. Crystal icicles hang on the ice walls, they sparkle in the morning light, like countless tiny diamonds, swaying gently, making tiny and crisp sounds, which is the purest music of nature.

There is a fresh and slightly chilly breath in the air. Taking a deep breath seems to cleanse the dust from the soul.

"boom--!"

The sudden loud noise was like a crack in the sky, shaking the air and instantly pulling Fang Ci, who was immersed in the edge of sleep, back to reality. He sat up suddenly, his heart pounding, and there was still some nightmare confusion in his eyes, but it was soon replaced by the tense atmosphere around him. The ice dragon beside him also opened its big eyes that sparkled like emeralds at almost the same time, full of vigilance and anxiety, as if it could see through all the crises in the outside world.

Fang Ci quickly adjusted his breathing, trying to calm his inner panic. He knew that in this extremely cold place, any disturbance could hide great danger. He quickly and skillfully put on a heavy warm clothing, which was a special material that could withstand extremely low temperatures. Then, he put on a fluffy down jacket, wrapping himself tightly, leaving only his eyes and nose exposed.

He tried to keep his voice as low as possible during the action, so as not to disturb the unknown creatures that might be lurking outside. Finally, he mustered up his courage, slowly reached out his hand, and carefully unzipped the tent. As the zipper slowly slid, a biting cold wind rushed in like a wild horse, with a biting chill, as if countless ice knives were ruthlessly scraping his cheeks, making him shiver. He quickly pulled up the scarf around his neck, almost covering half of his face, leaving only a pair of eyes vigilantly observing the outside world.

Looking through the snow, a thrilling scene came into view not far away. It was two huge tundra bears, roaring and wrestling with each other in an almost crazy manner. Their huge bodies rolled and collided on the snow, and each collision was accompanied by a deafening sound and flying snowflakes around. Obviously, the loud noise just now was the result of a fierce battle between these two hot-tempered guys.

Fang Ci's heartbeat quickened again, and he realized that he and the Ice Dragon might have become spectators of this fight. However, what made him feel relieved was that the two tundra bears seemed to be completely immersed in their own fight, and they turned a blind eye to them in the tent, as if their existence was as insignificant as a speck of dust in the vast snow.

Despite this, Fang Ci remained highly alert, knowing that in nature, any negligence could have fatal consequences. He quietly observed the battle, silently praying that it would end as soon as possible, and also began to think about how to leave here safely without attracting attention.

In the vast natural world, the law of survival is often cruel and direct, especially for predators like tundra bears that stand at the top of the food chain. Their world is full of competition and challenges. In this ice-covered crack, the fight between the same kind is often more intense than hunting prey, because territory and mates are the key to their survival and reproduction.

Fang Ci knew this very well. He stared at the two tundra bears not far away that were engaged in a fierce battle. Their roars echoed in the cold wind, and every swing of their claws and collision revealed unquestionable strength and determination. From their size and posture, Fang Ci could infer that this was not a simple play or misunderstanding, but a serious contest for the right to survive.

He looked around carefully, trying to find any clues that might have caused the fight. However, apart from the flying snow and the sparse trees in the distance, he did not find any trace of the third tundra bear. This made him think to himself that since there was no third party involved, the reason for the fight was obvious - they were fighting for this precious territory.

For tundra bears, territory is not only a place to live, but also an important place for hunting and reproduction. Once lost, it means finding a new living space in the harsh natural environment, which is undoubtedly a difficult task. Therefore, these two tundra bears will fight to the death so desperately.

After realizing this, Fang Ci immediately had a plan in mind. He knew that staying here would only increase unnecessary risks. After all, no matter which bear wins, it might become hostile to him because of the intruder in its territory. So, he quickly and calmly began to pack up the tent and equipment, trying to be gentle and quick with every move so as not to disturb the two behemoths that were fighting each other.

The Ice Dragon also sensed the tension of its master. It squatted quietly beside him, looking around vigilantly with its emerald eyes, ready to deal with any possible danger. With Fang Ci's careful arrangement, they quickly packed up and prepared to leave this troubled place.

At this moment, the fight between the two tundra bears seemed to have reached a fever pitch. They were completely immersed in their own world and paid no attention to any changes in the outside world. Fang Ci seized this fleeting opportunity and quietly merged into the vast snowfield with the ice dragon, gradually disappearing from the sight of the two giant bears.

After finally getting away from the fighting tundra bears, Fang Ci let out a long sigh.

The reason why he chose to escape from the fight with the tundra bears was not because of fear, but to save precious energy and unnecessary trouble.

In this extremely cold rift where there is almost nothing but ice, snow and rock, any energy is precious.

The strength of the two tundra bears just now was obviously stronger than all the opponents the Ice Dragon had encountered before, which also happened to serve as a reminder to Fang Ci and the others.

Such a powerful elf did not appear alone. Does this also indicate that Fang Ci and the Ice Dragon's extreme cold trial has reached the next stage, a stage that is more difficult but closer to the goal?
