It was already night, Xiao Yang and the others gathered around a campfire. Xiao Yang was busy preparing the meat onto the screwer, the meat came from a giant cow that Xiao Yang had killed and was nicely diced by Dong Zhou.

Before the exam started, the elders had already informed them that they would be staying in the forest until the next morning, so Xiao Yang was already prepared many spices and other seasonings.

They also prepared many thick blankets for the night, it was there was time camping outdoor, except for Xiao Yang, of course, such thing in the past was common to him. As a result, he had developed a talent in cooking with foods that are found from the outdoors.

After a while of roasting, the meat became finely cooked, a sweat and spicy aroma hovered under their noses.

Qian Fei's eyes widened at the sight of the meat, and some saliva could be clearly seen dribbling on the side of her lip, it looked as if she had been processed.

Qian Fei and Dong Zhou had a similar reaction, they all looked as if they haven't eaten anything for the past few days, they even tried to eat it before it was finished, but Xiao Yang was quick to stop it, it wouldn't be good if they all get diarrhea after this.

"It's finished now." As soon as Xiao Yang said that, all three of them quickly snatch a screw and started to devour the meats like a wild beast. Xiao Yang looking at the site was unsure of whether the beast that they are eating now was wilder or the three that were in front of him.

"Mhm! Brother Chen, since when did you have such a talent in cooking?" Qian Fei asked who was still in the middle of chewing her food, spices covered the side of her face, in fact, all three of them had some sort of seasonings stuck to the side of their face.

"Cough, I just learned a few tricks over time, that is all." He tried to look away from them and eat his own skewer.

"Food!" Just as they were silently eating the food, a voice suddenly broke out the silence.

A young man suddenly ran out of the brush and started running towards them with salivas dripping on his mouth.

"Who are yo..." Dong Zhou was about to ask who he was, but the young man snatched a skewer and started to devour the food like a beast.

"Mhm!" The young man shouted in delight, he truly looked like he hasn't eaten for a few days.

Xiao Yang was quite annoyed by this sudden event, the young man could have at least asked them and they would have allowed him to eat with them since there was plenty of spare meat from the giant cow.

"Who are you?" Dong Zhou asked again.

"Mhm, it's good but a little bit too spicy" The young man ignored the question again and started to give an opinion on the food.

"Mhm, I'm a bit thirst, is there any fruit juice?" The young man asked looking around with his mouth still full of food.

Everyone's expression was a mixture of surprise, shock, and annoyed. Especially Xiao Yang, not only did this young man in front of him ate the food without their permission, but also criticized his food for being too spicy, what right does he have to criticize his food?

"Ah!"

The young man seeing Xiao Yang's stern and cold expression fell back against a tree. He could sense a killing intent being emitted from the cold eyes that are glaring at him.

The other three realized this and tried to calm him down.

"Brother Chen, there is no need to be angry over this." Qian Fei and fang Qiong stepped in front of him with their hand raised to block him from getting closer to the frightened young man. They didn't want to see the young man being brutally beaten up.

Dong Zhou, however, held Xiao Yang back on the shoulders, it would be great if Xiao Yang would just simply beat up the young man, but he knew that there was a high possibility of the young man getting killed instead.

That is why he had to tightly hold Xiao Yang back to prevent him from getting near the young man if he started killing, then they would surely all get into trouble for a murderer. Plus no matter how rude the young man is, he should deserve to be killed.

Xiao Yang forced himself to smile and asked the young man, "So how do think of the food?"

The young man unable to grasp the situation and read the atmosphere, relaxed a bit, and happily replied with his eyes closed, "Mhm, no bad, it was just too spicy. It was still a bit lacking to a professional chief, but I would still give it a 7 out of 10."

Dong Zhou's face turned pale after hearing the young man continued to talk without thinking, just like a child even though he is at least 16.

"Really?..." Xiao Yang replied, still forcing himself to smile.

"Yes, that is right!" The young man quickly replied. Upon opening his eyes, the young man shivered this was because Xiao Yang had somehow taken out a rope and was slowly walking towards him with the desire of strangling him.

"Wha... What are you doing?!" The young man asked, trying to back away but was blocked by a tree behind him.

"Brother Chen calm down! You don't have to do this." Dong Zhou tried his best to hold him back, he thought to himself, 'Where did that rope come from?'

"No! Don't come near me, you lowly commoner, how dare you!" The young man shouted.
