Opportunity? Daniel didn't quite understand.
He looked puzzled, "What opportunity? What does this have to do with me wanting to be the Wolf King?"
"Of course it does," Chloe affectionately ran her fingers through Daniel's hair and said, "Without the Wolf King's permission, the Brut Military Academy's laboratory wouldn't be able to conduct experiments smoothly. So, if this matter were to come to light, the Wolf King would be the target of the entire continent's wrath."
A faint smile lingered on Chloe's lips as she continued, "But no one will know about this for the time being. When you grow up, when you become an adult, you can use this reason to usurp power, pulling down the current Wolf King while exposing this matter."
"Not only will you clear yourself of any involvement, but you'll also enjoy the love and support of the entire continent."
Chloe pointed at Daniel's chest with a cunning glint in her eyes, "This is a golden opportunity for rebellion, you know."
As the words sank in, Daniel's eyes lit up even more, "Wow, it really seems like it."
Tears welled up in his eyes as he looked at Chloe, "How can you be so clever? I love you!"
Qin Huaibei, standing nearby, couldn't wrap his head around it, "How did you two blatantly start discussing rebellion? You've got guts."
Ignoring him, Chloe simply said, "While that's true, what I said was still too simplistic. You see, rebellion isn't that easy; there are countless unforeseen circumstances that you'll have to handle yourself."
The werewolf race, bloodthirsty and brutal, possessed great physical strength.
Every wolf longed to ascend to the throne of the Wolf King, their ambitions for power and status ingrained from a young age.
To say they weren't excited would be a lie.
Daniel's whole body felt hot with excitement, but after a while, he felt disheartened again, "But I'm not very clever. What if I fail?"
At this, Qin Huaibei looked at him approvingly, "You're becoming more self-aware, that's good."
Daniel: "..."
He viciously extended his claws towards Qin Huaibei.
Chloe said casually, "You don't need to worry about that. After all, the blood clan will support you."
Upon hearing this, Daniel's eyes lit up, "Really?"
"Would I lie?" Chloe's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning, "After all, rather than letting that clueless guy Kamen take the throne, it's better to let my more familiar friend become the Wolf King."
Moved to tears, Daniel sobbed, "Sniff, Chloe, you're like my second parents."
Chloe originally wanted to make her usual retort, saying she didn't have a son as old as him.
But when she looked up and saw his tearful gratitude, she swallowed her words.
Forget it, she thought, let Daniel be happy for a while.
Chloe caressed her large knife, her expression unreadable.
Although they lost their last match, the actual impact wasn't that great.
After all, anyone with eyes could see that it was because the No.1 Military Academy was just too unlucky. In terms of strength alone, Chloe could easily beat everyone else.
Therefore, if I'm not mistaken, Brut Military Academy's next move is to shatter the myth of their No.1 Military Academy and elevate Brut to the pinnacle of strength.
Speaking of which, Chloe finds it peculiar.
Where does this confidence in Carmen come from, thinking they can defeat the five from our No.1 Military Academy?
Could it be Carmen hasn't had enough of the lesson from the last time they were almost killed?
Chloe sneered.
Some people always have unrealistic fantasies, and at times like this, someone needs to give them a reality check—show them what they should and shouldn't do.
...
The competition venues for the Joint Military Academy Competition are changing one by one. After the Rainforest Giant Snake incident, all races have sent people to investigate, and the organizers have no issues.
This time, their competition venue is on the Frigid Planet.
A star covered in snow year-round, a desolate land with ice mountains and snowfields everywhere.
Due to the extremely cold weather, the indigenous people here have long been relocated to the mainland.
After several inspections, it eventually became the competition venue for the Joint Military Academy.
Chloe and Daniel stood by the spaceship window, gazing down at the endless ice mountains.
The temperature here is already very low, and everyone is wearing temperature-regulating suits, hats, and earmuffs.
Chloe is afraid of the cold, very afraid, but she also loves playing in the snow and watching it.
Right now, she is leaning against the spaceship window, watching the frozen ice flowers, her body shaking uncontrollably.
Anderson is behind her, sighing, using a fire crystal to touch Chloe's exposed skin, trying to make her more comfortable.
Daniel is also a bit cold, but he doesn't dare to order Anderson around, so he kept urging Qin Huaibei for a significant part of the time.
Qin Huaibei looked at him like he was a fool, ignoring him.
Daniel instantly felt like an unwanted vegetable in the field.
The organizers intended for them to adapt to the environment first. After the spaceship docked, the main teams of various military academies descended.
They docked at an icy lake, and looking up, there was a clear blue sky with thick ice on the lake, enough to walk on and play.
It's really too cold here, and even the windproof eye mask is covered in a hazy white mist.
Chloe sneezed heavily.
Seeing this, Anderson quickly took out a thermos from his arms and handed it to Chloe, his voice low:
"Warm your hands, you can also have some to warm your body."
Chloe looked at him gratefully, quickly unscrewing the lid and taking a sip of hot water, feeling instantly relieved.
She sighed comfortably, then looked at Anderson, her voice trembling:
"Aren't you cold?"
"Cold," Anderson said, "but it's bearable."
He reached out to tidy Chloe's hair neatly on her temples, lowering his gaze:
"As long as the young miss didn't freeze."
Clearly a very ordinary sentence, and Anderson had said it more than once, but for some reason, Chloe felt her heart flutter.
She coughed a few times, pretending:
"Well... thank you, you've worked hard."
Their interaction was observed by Ren Yunying not far away.
She shook her head, saying helplessly, "These two kids, really."
The organizers instructed everyone to set up tents by the edge of the ice lake, stay here for a few nights, and then send the children into the arena.
The No.1 Military Academy was very proficient in setting up tents, and it only took a few minutes to set them up, and they were very sturdy.
Chloe stood by the edge of the ice lake, holding a cup of hot water, her gaze fixed on the bottom of the lake.
Daniel, who was beside her, saw it and involuntarily approached like a shadow:
"What are you looking at?"
Excitedly, Chloe pointed at the bottom of the ice lake, "There seems to be fish in there, I want to catch them to eat."
Upon hearing this, Daniel decisively stood up.
Chloe looked up at him in confusion, "Where are you going?"
Daniel replied:
"To get tools, I'm going to break this layer of ice."
