Reborn in the Entertainment Industry: Second Life

After an unknown amount of time, Bo Bing, who had forced herself to fall asleep due to motion sickness, was woken up by Jiang Wenqing beside her.

"Wake up, Bo Bing," Jiang Wenqing nudged Bo Bing. "We're almost there. Pack your bags, we're getting off the bus."

Ye Tianxing also woke up. Upon hearing this, he didn't say anything and got off the bus first with his backpack before Bo Bing woke up.

This guy is crazy.

Ye Tianxing's heart was pounding. Fear gripped his nerves. If this place weren't so difficult to return from, he would have quit the show without hesitation.

The scenes that had just unfolded seemed like a nightmare, and even though there weren't any scars on his face, he knew that it was all real.

Bo Bing really did intend to make him disappear at that time, even if it was just for a moment, Ye Tianxing could still sense it.

The bones in his face were still throbbing, and the pain kept reminding him that this was not something he was imagining.

Although it was a sunny day, the snow in the village hadn't melted, and being in the mountains, the ambient temperature was many degrees lower than in the city.

A biting wind blew past, and Ye Tianxing shivered, pulled up the hood of his snowsuit, and stiffly spoke to the camera about his feelings and the situation of his team.

Of course, the content that conflicted with Bo Bing was completely omitted.

Bo Bing got off the bus carrying a backpack and took out several people's suitcases from the bottom of the bus.

He stopped and looked at the sun; the winter sunlight seemed more like a decoration.

"It's so cold."

Thin ice exhaled a puff of white breath.

It's just psychological comfort.

The group stood in a line to take photos, and none of them mentioned what happened in the car earlier. When Bo Bing stood behind Ye Tianxing, the man visibly stiffened.

Qu Long cleared his throat and used a megaphone to amplify the sound.

"Now everyone has arrived at the T County camp," Qu Long said, standing next to a six-person wilderness advisory team. "This is the snow mountain survival team we have invited. Each team will be assigned a local guide and two experienced snow mountain athletes. They will assist you in completing the mission and protect your safety. Please stay close to them and do not act blindly."

"At the same time, our production team has also provided professional medical personnel for everyone. If you feel unwell, please contact the staff in time for rest and treatment."

"Now, let's announce the first task: the obstacle course through the snow valley."

"The program set up a natural obstacle course in the foothills, featuring not only natural obstacles but also snow, fallen trees, and small icefalls. Two teams must work together to traverse the valley; during the competition, team members must make good use of tools such as ropes and ice axes to safely overcome the obstacles. The first team to complete the traverse of the valley with all its members wins and is rewarded with priority access to climbing tools and warm clothing for the subsequent mountain climbing segment."

After announcing the mission, Qu Long looked at the two teams and said, "Each of you will be equipped with a video recorder. In addition to the photographers in each group filming, other camera crew members will also record at intermediate filming points. We need to reach the next camp before dark. Remember, safety first!"

"Now we're distributing simplified maps," Qu Long's assistant said, as he came up to collect the maps and distribute them to the two teams. "You have half an hour to adjust your mindset, choose your equipment, and plan your route through the snow mountain."

Bo Bing held the map in her hand, her mind racing.

The foothills are relatively safe. If you are traveling alone, you can choose the fastest route: a traverse, where you can quickly climb up the cliff next to the icefall area. Although this route is quite difficult, it is indeed a relatively fast route in the foothills.

However, this is a team activity, and the physical strength and skills of the other people are obviously not as good as yours.

Bo Bing sighed.

"That's why I hate teamwork."

He muttered to himself.

Ye Tianxing, standing nearby, frowned upon hearing this. "Even in the foothills, routes covered in ice and snow are extremely dangerous. How could you possibly complete the crossing alone?"

Bo Bing smiled. "That's you. I'm omnipotent."

"What a boastful tone," Ye Tianxing thought, deciding to stop arguing with this unreliable guy who never tells the truth. He picked up a map and sought help from the off-road crew to plan his route.

"Judging from the map, the fastest way is to go directly through the icefall area. Once you get past the obstacles here, you can start climbing."

While eating to replenish his energy, Wen Yuan looked at the map and said, "But the terrain here is quite dangerous. We probably won't be able to keep up with the physical demands, so it's not worth taking this route."

“Yes, but it’s estimated that there are still more than four hours until sunset. We also need to consider the impact of the weather.” Jiang Wenqing looked at his watch. It was just past noon, but it gets dark in the mountains around four or five in the afternoon. With obstacle avoidance, there will be a lot of uncertainty after dark.

“If we take too long a detour, even if we speed up the whole way, we still won’t make it to the next outpost before dark,” Zhang Feng also realized Jiang Wenqing’s meaning. “After dark, it will be difficult for us to avoid obstacles and clear a path, and with the luggage and items we are carrying, the danger will increase greatly on the way.”

"What should we do, Xiaobing?"

Wen Yuan looked at the young man standing to the side with his hands in his pockets. The young man's face showed no worry, and he was just kicking the snowdrift at his feet without saying a word.

Ye Tianxing frowned. Asking what use this guy was was less effective than consulting the professionals on site.

"Fifteen minutes left. Since things have come to this, let's eat first." Bo Bing glanced at his watch, took out a pack of compressed biscuits and started eating. "Now that we've taken care of our personal needs and replenished our energy, it won't be so easy to eat on the journey later. We should travel light and not carry too much luggage. We'll leave the rest to the production team to take with them."

Ye Tianxing was stunned for a moment. The people in room 404 and Zhang Feng started eating quickly. He also took off his backpack and took out something to eat.

Bai Shanyan wanted to say something, but seeing everyone eating, she took out some food and started eating too.

Damn it, I don't seem to have many effective shots yet.

The camera was focused on Bo Bing.

[Photographic Memory] activated.

Thin Ice blinked, and the world became crystal clear.

“We can only take a detour along this route. The trees here are quite messy, and we’re afraid of encountering snow caves on the ground,” Bo Bing raised his hand and drew a red line on the map with a red pen. “This is the most efficient route right now. After the first stage of artificial obstacles, be sure to stick close to me.”

He spoke in a serious tone, which startled Ye Tianxing, who then looked at the map that Bo Bing was pointing to.

The route was meticulously planned, with the estimated arrival times for each point marked in red. It perfectly navigated the seemingly simple yet complex terrain, demonstrating the skill of a seasoned professional.

Such a large map, yet the route was confirmed in such a short time.

Even seasoned survival experts were amazed.

"Your technique is quite skilled."

Although Ye Tianxing disliked Bo Bing, looking at the markings on the map, he couldn't bring himself to say something against his conscience, "Where did you learn that? Have you participated in similar snow mountain off-roading projects before?"

"No."

Bo Bing stood up, looked at Ye Tianxing with a half-smile, and shook her head. "This is talent."

Ye Tianxing choked for a moment, realizing that this guy was up to no good, and that he shouldn't have asked him about it.

“Alright, bring your climbing ropes and axes. Everyone should bring some first-aid supplies and a small amount of food for emergencies. Also, bring crampons, compasses, distress lights, and thermal foil. We can’t bring too much stuff.” Bo Bing took out a string of iron whistles from his backpack. “Take one for each person. Blow them if you get separated. Of course, staying close to me is the safest option.”

Zhao Yang blew a whistle, and the piercing sound made Jiang Wenqing cover her ears.

Ye Tianxing took the whistle, tried blowing a small amount of air to confirm that the whistle could be sounded.

Bai Shanyan didn't look well, but for the sake of her life, she did as she was told.

Qu Long's loudspeaker blared, "Alright, get ready to take position."

The two teams immediately arrived at the starting point of the artificial obstacle course.

Bo Bing was at the front. There were eight artificial obstacles in total, and Bo Bing quickly conceived in his mind how to overcome each one.

"start!"

As the starting gun fired, the two teams quickly ran towards the two obstacles on the field.

The first challenge is a ten-meter-long log bridge, which everyone must cross.

Mo Tao was the first to go from the red team. She was fast and had good balance. She walked up and moved slowly and steadily to the other side. Her teammates were secretly sweating for her.

Ye Tianxing stopped in front of the balance beam. Mo Tao carefully carried her backpack and had already crouched down to walk one-fifth of the way, while Bo Bing remained calm and unhurried.

"Give me all your luggage."

Bo Bing looked at the balance beam and said, "I'll carry it over in one trip, and you can bring your own people over."

He gestured, "Those with poor balance can just hook their limbs onto the balance beam and slowly crawl over. We have plenty of time."

Luggage can be a hindrance; that's a consensus.

"Can you carry it? Don't try to do it alone..."

Ye Tianxing looked at Mo Tao's progress and couldn't help but feel anxious.

However, they discovered that everyone else had already given their luggage to Bo Bing. Apart from 404's trust in Bo Bing, Bai Shanyan simply didn't want to carry her luggage.

Bo Bing carried two on her back, one on her chest, and one in each hand.

Ye Tianxing and Zhang Feng insisted on carrying their own backpacks, while Bo Bing shrugged, effortlessly lifted her bag, and walked towards the balance beam.

[Balance Technique] Activated.

[Finger Bone Enhancement] Activated.

Ye Tianxing watched as the young man, carrying so many packages, took a running start and climbed onto the balance beam.

He didn't slow down, but ran forward on the balance beam with ease, as if walking on flat ground.

The young man sprinted down the ten-meter mark at full speed, then nimbly leaped and landed steadily, ringing the bell to signal that the next person could start.

When Bo Bing arrived, the other team exclaimed in surprise at his speed, almost affecting Mo Tao's rhythm, but fortunately Mo Tao quickly adjusted.

"So cool, Little Ice Bro!"

Zhao Yang clenched his fist and waved it.

Ye Tianxing was also surprised. This guy's amazing balance was truly remarkable; he could actually run on this.

Could it be that what he said was true?

Ye Tianxing stroked his chin, watching Jiang Wenqing walk onto the balance beam and move forward steadily. He immediately felt that there were many hidden talents in the team.

However, it was clear that the guys behind him were not so lucky. Zhang Feng fell twice before barely managing to crawl across; Zhao Yang was a little better, but he used all four limbs and exerted so much effort that it was almost unbearable to watch; Wen Yuan fell once, but found a way to get across the balance beam while sitting sideways; Ye Tianxing and Bai Shanyan barely managed to crawl across the balance beam on their knees.

Ye Tianxing was covered in sweat. Having gone through it himself, he knew just how incredible Bo Bing's physical abilities were.

He's practically a professional balance beam athlete.

Seeing that the other group still had three members left, Ye Tianxing suddenly relaxed. They were clearly planning to coordinate things, but Mo Tao, who had started first, had already reached the third checkpoint and was ahead of them. Bo Bing, on the other hand, was leisurely waiting for everyone to arrive, saying he was afraid that if someone fell behind, the problem would be even bigger.

Ye Tianxing didn't understand what he was thinking.

Each of them carried their own luggage back.

The second challenge is a 35-meter single-person crawling net with ice and snow on the ground, which obviously reduces friction and makes crawling more difficult.

"Shall we go straight there, Xiaobing?"

Wen Yuan squatted down and wiped the ground. "It's not easy to move forward here. The netting is very low. What are we going to do with our backpacks?"

Bo Bing deftly untied her backpack and tied it to her ankle.

“I’m doing this so that my backpack won’t be caught online,” he said, crouching down and putting on the crampons from his backpack. “Watch how I do it.”

[Physical Activity Level] Activated.

[Finger Bone Enhancement] Activated.

Ye Tianxing didn't even notice how the young man started. He only saw the young man exert force with his limbs, moving like a snake in the net. Ye Tianxing swore that he had never seen anyone in his life crawl across a net like that.

Thin Ice's finger bones gripped the ice layer directly, and with the push of his crampons, he glided across the ice using the momentum.

The red team members who set off before him had their backpacks caught in the net and were struggling to get out.

Thin Ice didn't take long to get through here.

But Bo Bing's movements seemed extremely easy. Ye Tianxing had climbed it once himself and realized how difficult it was. Even through the thick clothes, his knees started to hurt from kneeling. Fortunately, the crampons provided a lot of support, preventing him from crawling in place.

When everyone had passed through, Ye Tianxing noticed that the other side had obviously slowed down. Mo Tao, who had started ahead, was stuck at the fourth level, while there were still two people at the second level. One was struggling in the net, and the other was anxiously waiting for the person in front to press the bell to start.

It's only two levels now, but it's already taking a huge toll on my stamina.

However, the following levels were not too difficult.

The group reached the seventh level, almost catching up with the red team's progress, and had now completed the task in one hour and ten minutes.

There were two ropes with a platform in the middle. The ropes had knots for climbing and descending. Bo Bing jumped up the ropes and climbed up, took two steps over the plank, and jumped down from the plank with one hand on the rope, landing very coolly.

Ye Tianxing began to look at Bo Bing with slightly more respect.

—This guy is kind of handsome.
