Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The World God of Cookery Tournament was held on a huge cruise ship. Named the Jewel, the nearly one hundred thousand tons ship moored in Hua’s largest port like a behemoth.

It was a very famous cruise ship in the world, and because the competition was really important, the organizer had chosen it as the venue. Another reason was that the competition involved a lot of powers with deep backgrounds.

The quay was thronged with people coming and going. In front of the boarding ladder, men in fine suits were checking passengers’ boarding documents.

In addition to teams of chefs, there were also some business tycoons and people of status boarding the cruise ship. Some of them were there for sightseeing, while others were there for delicious food.

The World God of Cookery Tournament had already become a worldwide event that kept making headlines lately. The main reason was that it brought together some of the world’s most famous chefs.

The chef who won the first place in the competition would get a prize of one hundred million dollars as well as a mysterious gift. That was why it had attracted all the famous chefs in the world and had become the largest cooking competition in history.

People of all colors were crowded on the boarding ladder, while participants from various countries had already boarded the ship. Among them were chefs from Western countries, as well as from Hua and many smaller countries. Their purpose of taking part in the competition was not only for fame but also for the high prize money.

…

“Gentlemen and lady, please hold on. I need you to show me your boarding papers.”

An Asian man in a suit, wearing an in-ear headphone and a black pistol on his hip, stopped a group of people in strange costumes. They were two young men, one in Hanfu and the other with a fox and a mantis shrimp on his shoulder, and a girl with a laptop computer.

The combination was so unusual that the security officer could not help but notice them from a distance.

Xiao Ai was somewhat speechless. She could not understand why she had been sent on board this cruise ship with Bu Fang and the strange man to participate in a cooking competition that she had never heard of.

As a girl who wanted to become a top superhuman, how could she waste her time participating in a cooking competition? However, she did not dare disobey Chief Luo’s order, so she had to bring them both here.

She was wearing a denim jumpsuit. From her front pocket, she pulled out three IDs and handed them to the security officer.

The security officer took them suspiciously. After glancing at Bu Fang, Yu Ge, and Xiao Ai, he finally nodded. “You may board the ship now. But, Sir, you can’t take your… pet on board,” he said with a frown, looking at Foxy on Bu Fang’s shoulder.

“Huh? Why?” Bu Fang asked with an expressionless face.

“We don’t know if your… pet fox has been vaccinated, so please leave it with us for the time being,” the officer said.

“Then why is that dog allowed to board the ship?” Bu Fang pointed to a golden dog held in the arms of a rich lady in a mink coat in the distance.

“That’s a pet dog…” the security officer replied, somewhat helplessly.

“This is my pet fox,” said Bu Fang. Foxy stuck out her tongue and made a cute face.

Xiao Ai rolled her eyes. ‘Pet, my as*! That’s a nine-tailed fox, a highly dangerous spirit beast equivalent to an S-class superhuman!’

Just as the officer was somewhat at a loss of what to do, Yu Ge was getting impatient. ‘Senior is really easygoing. I can’t believe he can talk to this mortal for so long.’ The next moment, he raised his hand and uttered the word ‘freeze’ under his breath.

Suddenly, the security officer’s body was completely frozen. Raising his head, Yu Ge took the lead and stepped into the cruise ship, while the others followed closely behind. In his opinion, they, the cultivators, could do whatever they wanted.

“Good heavens! This cruise ship…”

After boarding the ship, Xiao Ai turned on her computer. It began to beep while the screen displayed countless spiritual energy points. She let out a shocked cry at the sight of that.

She could not believe there were so many superhumans and cultivators on this cruise ship. On the contrary, the two guys beside her, Bu Fang and the strange youth, showed no spiritual energy dots on the screen.

‘I thought a cooking competition is going to be held on this cruise ship? Why are there so many superhumans here?!’

Her alarmed cry drew the attention of many people. In the distance, holding a glass of wine, a beautiful woman in a bright red dress looked over, her red lips slightly pursed. Many people were shifting their gazes to Xiao Ai as well.

As a member of Hua’s State Supernatural Agency, Xiao Ai was destined to be the focus of many people’s attention. However, her strength did not make these people feel that she was a threat. After all, she was only a C-class superhuman. In their eyes, someone of that caliber was just a weakling.

As for the two men standing next to her, they did not attract any attention because no one could feel their spiritual energy.

Xiao Ai covered her mouth with one hand as she realized that she was being noticed by many superhumans, who were from the West, Sakura, and some other countries. She knew that she needed to be cautious in every word and action she took here.

“Heavens… This… Is this really just a cooking competition? Why does it bring together so many superhumans?” Xiao Ai asked Bu Fang and Yu Ge in a low voice.

No wonder the State Supernatural Agency had a spot in this competition. With so many superhumans on this cruise ship, they had to be here no matter what.

“Your chief didn’t tell you?” Yu Ge gave the somewhat nerdy girl a strange look.

Xiao Ai shook her head stupidly.

“What a poor child.” He made a tsk-ing sound with a haughty look on his face. After that, he said nothing else.
