Chapter 454 Choosing Partners
One of the viewers commented excitedly. “Finally! They’re choosing their partners!”
While the show claimed the candidates for the celebrity guests‘ partners were chosen at random, inreality, the directors had hand–picked each of them.
Ultimate Survival played off the origins of its filming locations, which were tweaked as part of thechallenge.
Piecing the story together with what talent the celebrities had was tough work, and sometimes requiredprofessional knowledge or skill.
With the children’s hospital as the filming location of this season, the candidates were undoubtedlychosen for their medical backgrounds or knowledge.
The viewers were already guessing who were the candidates that had been chosen this season.
Before long, the director instructed, “Ladies and gentlemen, before you are five candidates and onlythose who have matched on the system will pair up for the challenge.
“The candidates‘ information is displayed on the screen. Two of them are medical students while theremaining three have different majors and professions. Please choose your candidate based on yourexperience
Everyone’s expression shifted upon hearing this except for Tobias“.
Oliver, who was a returning guest and therefore had experience from the last season, knew exactlywhat he had to focus on in variety shows–getting more screentime.
That, and not becoming dead weight. Screentime and making oneself useful were what the audiencelooked for in an Ultimate Survival participant..
If Oliver chose the right candidate to help him with this challenge, he might become a trending figureduring this season’s filming and make his investors see his worth. The lucrative endorsement dealswould then start to pile up on his doorstep!
Zane and Aimee thought the same. However, Lucy was ashen–faced and absentminded. Choosing theright candidate was obviously the last thing on her mind.
The viewers‘ comments began flooding in. “Picking the medical students will pay off nicely this round.”
“Well, duh! From what I know, choosing the right candidate will boost your chances of success by50%!”
“Come on, guys, be realistic. The non–celebrity guests get to choose too. They might not match withthe celebrities who chose them”
“The guest who gets first pick will be at an advantage, for sure.”
“Look! The candidates‘ information is out!”
With a whoosh, the information for each candidate appeared in bulletin form on the large screen before

the celebrity guests.
The first non–celebrity guest was a 25–year–old man named Joshua Geller, a civil engineering major.
The second was a 20–year–old woman named Cecilia Callahan, a clinical doctor.
As soon as the words “clinical doctor” popped up on the screen, the viewers went wild.
“Guys, do my eyes deceive me? Is Cecilia Callahan the popular streamer I’ve been following for ages?”
“Hot damn! I think that’s Cecilia Ceil! The information adds up!”
“Cecilia Ceil? I’ve come across her channel before. Isn’t she really good at diagnosing patients?”

“I thought influencers would never show their faces in public! I can’t believe she actually signed up for avariety show. She has guts, I’ll give her that!”
“I’ve met Cecilia before. She’s gorgeous and angelic, but I think she’s got nothing on the celebrities.”
“Hey, don’t speak too soon. Whoever gets paired up with her for this challenge will win the lottery!”
The celebrity guests could not see the comments from these viewers, of course, but professionaljudgment honed from his years in showbiz had Oliver setting his eyes on Cecilia.
“I think this young lady has the perfect profession for this challenge.” Oliver chuckled, already eager to
make his choice. “Hope you won’t mind if I choose her, Zane.”
Zane shook his head. “Sorry, Oliver, but we get to choose according to our assigned numbers. Thatmeans I get first pick.” He had been assigned as number one.
With the Lawtons being one of Ultimate Survival’s backers, Zane was able to pull some strings forhimself.
Oliver had been in showbiz long enough to understand Zane’s implication. “In that case, I’ll opt for thethird non–celebrity guest who also graduated medical school with honors!”
