On the way to becoming the strongest, I first became a popular person.

Near a big tree next to a stream in Area A6, three people were resting and preparing dinner.

The sun shines through the mottled leaves, and the breeze blows gently, bringing a hint of coolness.

Ji Li stared intently at the food on the grill, and skillfully turned the skewers with the tongs in his hand. The skewers sizzled under the charcoal fire, giving off an enticing aroma. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he was very satisfied with his barbecue skills. From time to time, he picked up the seasoning bottle next to him and skillfully sprinkled some seasoning on it.

On the other side, Ling Mu was washing the fruits, peeling them, cutting the various fruits into even-sized cubes, putting them on a plate, and arranging them.

Shi Chu was lying on a folding chair under the tree, staring at the sky in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking about.

At this moment, a sunny and handsome face suddenly appeared in her sight, looking at her with a smile.

Ling Mu bent down, spoke in a courteous tone, lowered his head to her eyes and said slowly: "Senior sister, you can eat now."

"Got it." Shi Chu pushed away the face that was too close to her, sat up straight, and stood up from the folding chair.

Just talk, why are you getting so close to her? She’s not deaf.

She stretched and walked towards Ji Li who was placing food on the black picnic blanket on the ground.

As a well-prepared person, she brought all kinds of food with her when she came to take the exam. Of course, most of it was meat. She was a natural carnivore and could not live without meat. For this reason, she bought a refrigerator and placed it in the space bracelet to store food.

That is to say, she prepared a lot of food, enough for four or five people, so she was kind enough to share it with the two coolies. She was really a good employer. When they saw the meat, their eyes lit up, like wolves that had been hungry for months. I guess they were tortured by the nutritional supplements. Then they took the initiative to take on the cooking task, and she was happy to have some free time.

No matter how rich the flavor of nutritional supplements is, it cannot change its essence. It is just a tube of liquid. How can it be compared with normal food? Apart from being cheap, easy to carry and nutritionally balanced, it does not have any advantages. Anyone who can afford it would not drink nutritional supplements.

To be honest, these two guys are good at cooking, but then again, most people in the Federation are good at cooking, and they learn it from childhood. The specially established survival class will teach you how to cook, find and process ingredients, and your performance will be counted into the total score. After all, when you go to the front line and fight with star beasts, there will be all kinds of situations, and you may lose contact or be trapped. You can't starve to death, so the ability to survive alone is a must. The Federation attaches great importance to basic skills.

"Senior, wash your hands." Ji Li brought a basin of clean water and placed it in front of Shi Chu.

"Thank you." Shi Chu glanced at the alpha with his head down. He had discovered in the past few days that this guy was quite considerate and careful in doing things. As long as he was not with Ling Mu, he was a normal person.

She skillfully reached her hands into the basin in front of her. Her long, slender fingers were as tender as green onions. Her hands were immersed in the water, and tiny ripples appeared on the surface of the water.

She rubbed her hands together, carefully washing every corner between her fingers. The water gently wrapped around her fingers, as if kissing every inch of her soft skin.

Crystal clear water droplets slid down the white wrist and dripped into the basin, making a crisp sound.

Ji Li looked at the white and delicate hands in front of him stirring in the clear water, with an indescribable heat in his eyes. He couldn't help but exert force with his hands holding the basin. His lips opened slightly, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, and a blush quickly crept up to the roots of his ears.

"Okay." Shi Chu pulled her hands out, water droplets dripping down her fingertips, sparkling charmingly in the sun. She gently shook off the water droplets on her hands, a smile appeared on the corners of her mouth, and said to him.

"Well, I'll go get some water." He turned around hurriedly and walked towards the stream beside him in a panic and nervous manner.

Ling Mu was stunned for a moment under the tree, then gently touched the right face that had just been touched. The soft and delicate touch seemed to still remain on his face. He looked at the two people not far away with deep eyes, and when he saw Ji Li leave, he strode towards Shi Chu.

"Senior, come and try the fruit I cut." He picked up a plate of colorful cut fruits from the ground, sat down next to Shi Chu with a smile, and handed the food to her with an expectant look on his face.

Shichu forked a piece into his mouth and commented nonchalantly, "It's good."

You can cut flowers out of a fruit, right? Doesn’t she know that everything she buys is delicious?

"Senior, I want to eat too."

If you want to eat it, go ahead and eat it yourself. Why are you looking at me? You have hands. Shi Chu looked at the alpha approaching and was about to reject his request righteously.

A furry tail suddenly wrapped around her waist and rubbed it playfully, causing an itchy feeling in her waist.

She raised her eyes and saw that two furry ears suddenly appeared on the head of the alpha in front of her. The tuft of white hair on the tip of the ears trembled slightly under her sight, as if it was shy, or as if it was seducing her.

"Senior~" The alpha gently pulled her sleeve and shook it, the ears on his head shaking gently, staring at her straight, his eyes flashing with anticipation, with a bit of playfulness and coquettishness, his clear voice sounded a bit sticky, but not offensive.

Shameless, this is a foul, how can you use a big cat to seduce her! Do I put you in my eyes? It seems not, forget it, you are using this to test the cadres? !

"Is that good~"

Well, she is a human who can't resist the temptation of furry things.

Shi Chu changed to a new fork, quickly picked up a piece of red fruit and stuffed it directly into his mouth, with a somewhat rough movement.

I can't stand it. Shut up quickly. Stop trying to act cute in front of her with your ears and tail puffed up. She just washed her hands and hasn't eaten yet.

"Hmm..." Ling Mu's cheeks puffed up slightly, he blinked his eyes, a satisfied smile bloomed on his face, he chewed the fruit gently, there was still a little red juice at the corner of his mouth, he stretched out his bright red tongue to lick it, but his eyes were always fixed on Shi Chu, his gaze covertly passed over the fork she had used, with unclear meaning.

it's a pity.

"Senior, I want to..."

Before he could finish his words, another piece of green fruit was stuffed into his mouth.

"Shut up, put your ears and tail back, and eat your meal." Shichu glared at him fiercely, kicked his calf lightly, and said angrily, "If you're not hungry, get out of here!"

The damn guy actually chose to seduce her when she was eating. Otherwise, she would definitely let this guy know what it means to destroy a cat with ruthless hands.

Change her back right now, she wants to eat! The world is big, but eating is the most important thing. Even Maorong has to sit in the back.

Anyway, this guy shouldn't shed hair, right? Her food can't stand the tossing.

Shi Chu looked at his ears and tail warily, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no sign of hair loss.

"Hurry up, do you hear me?"

The two furry ears trembled violently at her angry voice, pressed back against her head, turned into airplane ears, and then disappeared along with the naughty tail around her waist.

Without the furry presence, her face darkened instantly. She kicked Ling Mu hard and ordered in a bad tone: "Sit over there, don't be so close to me."

Ling Mu moved to the side reluctantly, biting the fruit in her mouth while thinking about something. She really liked her beastly state. It seemed that she liked tigers very much. However, this kind of creature became extinct after the old calendar, and he was currently the only human who turned into a tiger after beastly state.

So her liking for tigers is the same as... liking herself?

Ahem, but she seems to like eating more. Furry finally succumbed to food. I can try a different time period next time.
