Once, Luo Xingzhou didn't have such good cooking skills. When he was in the Wu family, he didn't need to cook by himself. After he left the Wu family, he lived on nutritional solutions. He had no idea how to cook or grill.

In the previous world, after he was able to transform into human form, he got into the group of Human Practicers. He learned a lot of life skills from those companions. Although he was a Plant Non-human Practicer, he was a Cannibal Flower, which meant he had a good appetite for both meat and vegetables.

At this time, Luo Xingzhou felt that he could open a barbecue restaurant with this skill after his mother's health improved without spending lots of star coins. Then he could live a peaceful life with his mother. It would be perfect if Grandpa and Uncle Luan could come back safely.

He sliced the roast into thin slices and put them onto a plate. Luo Xingzhou ate a few slices of roast meat and sipped the soup, which was very relaxing.

"Oh my! Luo Xingzhou, are you making things difficult for us? It's noon. I'm starving."

"Haha. I have foresight. I ordered a takeaway, and my food has been delivered already. I started to eat with Luo Xingzhou."

"You guys! Look at the other Live Channel. I took a glance and found that none of these remaining contestants are as good at cooking as Luo Xingzhou. Haha, you can imagine how hard their days are going to be."

"Wait, I found two people's location is close to Luo Xingzhou's. Wow! One of them smelled the barbecue. Oh, look, the two of them followed the scent to look for him. Luo Xingzhou! Stop eating! Be alert!"

In this kind of survival show, the danger not only could be from the wilderness, but also could be from the companions around. Especially when meeting contestants he did not know before, his own survival security would not be increased.

When many people in Live Channel reminded Luo Xingzhou to be alert with real-time comments, Luo Xingzhou's ears twitched. Jiu Tang, the vine that curled into a ball on his lap, also stretched out a shoot and poked Luo Xingzhou's thigh. Luo Xingzhou glanced down at it. It held back its shoot and laid back to his thigh. Luo Xingzhou continued to eat and drink as if he was unaware.

His physical strength was improving. He needed to eat a lot to replenish his energy.

The locations where Chen Kangning and Mi Luo landed on The Red Planet were close. Therefore, they soon found each other and joined together. Chen Kangning was a Level C Water Powerman. Mi Luo was a Level C Catlike Beastmen. The one who smelled the barbecue was Mi Luo, who had a particularly keen sense of smell as a Beastman.

Mi Luo said to Kangning while walking, "What smells so good? I'm so starving! My stomach's rumbling. It's noon. We have to find a way to get some food."

Mi Luo was talkative, while Chen Kangning was an aloof, quiet, handsome man. Hearing Mi Luo's chatter, he took out a piece of dried meat from his space button and handed it over.

Mi Luo looked at it disgustedly, "It's dried up overnight! I'd rather drink the nutrient solution."

Chen Kangning took back the dried meat hand and silently ate it alone. Every contestant had five nutrient solutions. If they finished all five solutions, they had to eat the dried meat.

As they marched, Mi Luo's stomach growled louder and louder, and his eyes grew brighter and brighter. He felt that the food scent wafting from the front was definitely the scent of roasted meat. Chen Kangning put the dried meat away and looked warily at his surroundings. He was not like Mi Luo, who only had food in his mind now.

Actually, the two of them were very lucky. Because they were friends in their real life. They came together to attend the Survival Live Show. And they didn't expect that they would meet on this planet right after they landed.

Finally, they knew where the good scent was coming from. Mi Luo and Chen Kangning saw a man sitting on a rock at the same time. With one hand holding a plate, that man used a simple homemade tableware to hold a slice of roast meat to his mouth. On the grill in front of the man, a grilled beast's leg was finished halfway.

"Barbecue! Great!  It smells so good!" What delicious roast meat!" As soon as he saw the roast, Mi Luo didn't care about anything else. Chen Kangning was startled and grabbed him by the back of his shirt collar to stop him. At the same time, Chen Kangning realized who the person sitting there was. After all, they were coming on the same starship. He called out in surprise, "Luo Xingzhou?"

Although only one day had passed in the competition, Chen Kangning, who was in the company of Mi Luo, knew that there were Stellar Beasts in this area. But Luo Xingzhou, an ordinary person, was not only alive safe and sound, but also sitting leisurely here grilling meat for lunch. This scene made him feel alert.

Hearing someone call his name, Luo Xingzhou turned his head to look at them, as if he had just noticed them. He thought for a moment, then he thought of the identity of these two people.

On the star ship that came to the Red Planet, the thirty contestants shared the information of their names and abilities with each other. Those who dare to participate in such a Survival Live Show must be somewhat competent. Ordinary people who knew nothing would not dare to participate in such a show, which would be like asking to be killed. So at that time, Luo Xingzhou, an ordinary person, stood out among the Powermen and Beastmen. But no one wanted to talk to him about cooperation.

But that time was enough for Luo Xingzhou to remember the identity of the other twenty-nine players. He was impressed by Mi Luo's enthusiasm on the ship. Mi Luo was one of the few people who greeted and talked to him.

Luo Xingzhou nodded to them, "Chen Kangning, Mi Luo. I am Luo Xingzhou. What a coincidence."

Mi Luo broke free from Chen Kangning's grasp. He ran up to Luo Xingzhou and said curiously, "Luo Xingzhou, it's really you! I didn't expect to see you here! By the way, did you grill this meat by yourself?"

Mi Luo's mouth was watering as he stared at the grilled beast-leg. Luo Xingzhou didn't know if Mi Luo really had a big heart or if he was just pretending to look like this. He slightly nodded and said, "Yes. I grilled it myself. If you want some, you can have some for yourself."

"Really? Kangning, come on, just by the smell of it, I can tell it's delicious. It's definitely better than the barbecue outside."

Mi Luo asked Chen Kangning back to come over, while he took out his dagger and sliced the meat. He didn't even bother to find a plate to put it on. After peeling off a piece of meat, he cupped it in his hand and brought it to his mouth. The moment he tasted the grilled meat, his eyes went round. Then, he did have to talk, he stuffed the whole piece of meat into his mouth desperately. After he swallowed it all, he raised his thumb to Luo Xingzhou and complimented him, "Delicious! It's so delicious! Kangning, come one, have a try!"

Seeing that Luo Xingzhou was eating too, Chen Kangning didn't stop Mi Luo. When he saw how Mi Luo enjoyed the food, he felt that the dried meat he had just eaten was like wood. Seeing that Kangning didn't move, Mi Luo peeled a piece and put it into his mouth, letting him taste the mastery of grilled meat. Just making the meat cooked by grilling didn't have the mastery of grilling.

As soon as Chen Kangning took a slice of roast meat, he found his buds on the tip of his tongue overjoyed by the seasoning seeping into the meat. He subconsciously chewed a few times. Then he realized that his body had accepted the taste more quickly than his mind. He looked over at Luo Xingzhou, who was sipping his soup. He had to admit that the roast meat was really delicious.

Chen Kangning said after finishing a piece of roast meat, "Mr. Luo, you are really a master at grilling meat. And, if I'm not mistaken, this is the meat of Level S Stellar Beast, right?"

Hearing this, Mi Luo widened his eyes again. Luo Xingzhou was an ordinary person. How could he have the meat of a Level S Stellar Beast for food?

The people in Live Channel watched and laughed.

"Mi Luo is a foodie! Mi Luo has eaten so many pieces of meat and still hasn't realized he's eating the meat from Level S's Stellar Beast."

There were also people who went from Mi Luo and Chen Kangning's Live Channel to Luo Xingzhou's channel. They have posted comments, asking, "What's going on? Isn't Luo Xingzhou a normal person? Is it possible that Luo Xingzhou has a conspiracy?"

"Conspiracy my ass! Luo Xingzhou was an ordinary person before he joined the show. But who says he has to be an ordinary person all through his life?"

"That's right! Luo Xingzhou is not an ordinary person now. Yesterday he became a Powerman with Wood Power. And the power he showed yesterday was so amazing!"

"I think Chen Kangning probably wanted to take care of Mi Luo, the one who has nothing in his mind other than food. So, he wanted to go together with Luo Xingzhou, who could be responsible for taking care of Mi Luo. And I guess that Chen Kangning wanted to offer that they could be responsible for Luo Xingzhou's safety. However, he found out that something was wrong when he took his first bite. This time Chen Kangning must think that Luo Xingzhou has some conspiracy. Smart people would overthink sometimes. Haha..."

"Really? Did his powers trigger yesterday? But the supernatural power shouldn't be so easy to awaken, right?"

"You can do that. But that doesn't mean Luo Xingzhou can't."

"No wonder Luo Xingzhou's Live Channel became the top of the list within a day. So this is the reason."

Chen Kangning did feel that Luo Xingzhou had some kind of conspiracy. So, he watched Luo Xingzhou closely and was ready to attack if there was anything wrong with Luo Xingzhou. Likewise, Mi Luo was alerted by him. And his rounded eyes turned into a pair of cat-like eyes with vertical pupils. He could turn into a Cat-beast form for combat at any time.

Luo Xingzhou did not panic and said, "Yes. This is the meat of a Level S Stellar Beast. I hunted for it. Is there a problem?"

"You hunted a Level S Stellar Beast? But aren't you a Level E normal human?" Mi Luo blurted out straightforwardly.

Luo Xingzhou raised his eyebrows, "Before yesterday, I was a Level E ordinary human. But what level I am now can only be known when I have gone out for testing."

"What is this?  "Mi Luo was confused.

Chen Kangning looked at Luo Xingzhou with surprise. There was only one possibility for his words. Chen Kangning asked, "Did your powers come into play yesterday when you first entered the planet?"

Mi Luo looked at Luo Xingzhou incredulously, because the chances of this were too small.

Luo Xingzhou nodded, "Yes, I'm lucky."

Mi Luo suddenly felt so delighted that he patted Luo Xingzhou's shoulder. "Dude, you are good! So you and Kangning are of the same kind now. Why don't the three of us go together next?  Do not worry. Kangning and I will go first when we are in danger. And we'll be your helpers during the break. Haha..."

The last remaining task was the main one, cooking, which would be in charge by Luo Xingzhou.

Luo Xingzhou nodded indifferently, "Sure."

Before Chen Kangning could say anything, the matter was settled by Mi Luo. Then, Kangning started to eat grilled meat frankly. With such delicious food, he didn't want to chew on that dried meat. If he didn't eat some now, Mi Luo would have finished the rest of the grilled meat.

As he ate, Chen Kangning looked curiously at Luo Xingzhou and asked, "Can I ask what type of powers you've awakened? I'm not trying to pry into your secrets. It's just that we're going to be going together next time. And we should have a general understanding of each other as teammates. My power is Level C Water Power. Mi Luo is a Level C Catlike Beastmen. He is good at speed and tracking."

Luo Xingzhou patted the vine on his leg and said, "Mine is Wood Power. Jiu Tang, say hello to our two teammates."

Jiu Tang, lying on his lap, immediately extended a shoot with two new leaves sprouting from it. It shook in the direction of Mi Luo and Chen Kangning. After greeting, it put away its leaves and climbed swiftly onto Luo Xingzhou's shoulder, where it found a new place to stay.

"Oh! This little vine is so cute!"

This time Chen Kangning also had no suspicion at all. That little Vine looked nonthreatening. But he felt that what Luo Xingzhou had awakened was most likely the rare Attack Power in Wood Power. If so, Luo Xingzhou was not an ordinary lucky man. What a lucky man!
