Chapter 490: Chapter 489 Another Work of Jiang Li
At this moment, the Spirit Chef Sect Master stood passionately on the stage, giving the opening address, while Jiang Li said to the two below.
“It’s the ‘Golden Light Spell’ that the Master of Spirit Chef Sect asked me to write. Hmm, why are you looking at me like that? Don’t tell me you think I was idle and bored so I volunteered to write it for them?”
“I’m not that kind of boring person.”
“Look, look, check it out, the must-have classic cultivation technique for foodies. Only five lower grade spirit stones needed, just five.”
A booming call from a seller not far away made it hard for people not to notice.
Bai Hongtu was naturally drawn over.
“What’s they are selling there?”
“This is the cultivation manual that every gastronome must have, ‘Easy Dining Cultivation’. It’s simple to learn, easy to master, we guarantee you can learn it.”
Gathered at the Spirit Chef Sect’s competition, there are not only Spirit Chefs but also food-loving guests. The competition often presents some jaw-dropping delicacies.
So, the foodies come.
Bai Hongtu was interested, “I’ll take one.”
“Add two more lower grade spirit stones and I’ll give you a tutorial.”
“No need,” Bai Hongtu waved, how hard could a cultivation manual cost five low-grade spirit stones be?
“Why are you standing so far away?” Yu Yin looked at Jiang Li in confusion, wondering why he’s standing even farther back than her.
Jiang Li didn’t reply.
Bai Hongtu quickly cultivated with this manual.
“This manual is ingenious. The amount of spiritual energy and skills required is minimal; even someone in the third layer of Qi cultivation can learn this. From the perspective of my expertise, I can’t even find ways to improve it.”
“After cultivation, you can automatically separate fish flesh from fish bones, crab meat from crab shells, and chicken meat from chicken bones. Let me see who’s the author…. somebody called… Jiang?”
Bai Hongtu looked towards Jiang Li.
Yu Yin looked towards Jiang Li.
Jiang Li turned his head away.
“Did you write this cultivation method?” Yu Yin hesitated.
“Ahem, as the Human Emperor, I have a responsibility to empathize with the suffering of the people and help them find better ways to live, hence why I wrote this manual.”
“So you admit you wrote it?”
“You should focus on the main point.”
“The main point is that you wrote this manual.”
“…”
“Now can the participating contestants please come to the designated spot as the competition will begin shortly.” The Spirit Chef Sect Master’s words shifted the attention of the three.
“This competition will be based on free grouping. You can form a group of one, two, or three. The competitors can choose on their own.”
“Now we start with the first question. The primary function of food is to fill the stomach. Currently, our Spirit Chef Sect has over a thousand mortals farming in the fields. In an hour and a half, they will gather here. The task for the competitors is to make food that can satisfy these mortals.”
“The ingredients you use must not exceed the scope provided by the sect.”
Food prepared by the Spirit Chef Sect was piled up like a small mountain.
“If it’s just filling up, then it’s not challenging; even if one is not a Spirit Chef, one can complete the competition.”
“Should we team up?” Bai Hongtu and Jiang Li asked Yu Yin. It was obvious for the two of them to team up.
“No need,” Yu Yin declined. If she teamed with these two, and they won at the end, would it be her win, or would it be their team’s win?
Yu Yin aimed at surpassing Jiang Li.
…
“Feeding a thousand people, the most crucial part of this competition is volume. Good taste is secondary.”
After seriously analyzing the situation for awhile, Yu Yin switched to Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu’s mindset and continued to analyze.
“The best meal will always be one made from home. Are we supposed to go and find their family members to cook? That’s unrealistic.”
“If you give money for eating, and say ‘satisfying’ once, then you give one spirit stone each time? This should violate the competition rules.”
“What if all the ingredients are used up, and the other competitors cannot compete? This does fit both of their styes.”
Yu Yin turned to look at the two of them, who were cooking, and found they had no such intention.
…
“Brother, cooking is your forte.” In terms of cultivation talent, Luo Zhu was superior to her brother Luo Ying, but when it comes to cooking, it can be quite challenging for Luo Zhu.
Luo Ying had survived the apocalypse for ten years and had plenty of survival skills, knowing how to make the most out of resources.
“I think there are three key points. Firstly, the food’s taste must be heavy, like adding a lot of salt. Secondly, it needs to cure hunger, allowing them to have the energy to do afternoon farm work. Lastly, it should be cheap. Not only should it satisfy them this time, but it also needs to be affordable and repetitive. They can prepare the meal at home and bring it to the farm next time.”
Luo Zhu nodded frequently, she hadn’t considered as thoroughly as her brother had.
…
“Can we form a group of three?” The princesses of the Merfolk and the South Jiao Dragon Tribe brightened up at the news and contemplated whether to sign up last minute.
“Fu Gui, allow us to participate, we guarantee to make you the champion.”
Seven Kill Taoist hurriedly formed a team with Qin Luan and Yuan Wuxing. He didn’t have the heart to allow the hard-working mortals to suffer from their cooking.
“Why did you come?” Qin Luan was puzzled, he didn’t expect Seven Kill Taoist to voluntarily help him.
“Don’t ask too much. I’ll take care of cutting the vegetables, you just say yes or no.”
Qin Luan naturally agreed; when it comes to chopping vegetables, it would be hard to find a rival against a sword cultivator.
“Master, how should we do it?” Qin Luan knew that Yuan Wuxing had more experience in this field.
“On the surface, this challenge seems to be about how to cook communal food, but don’t forget that this is also a test for the candidates of the Human Emperor. The Human Emperor set this challenge for a reason.”
“Think from another perspective, to satisfy the mortals, it’s not just about making them full – anyone can do that. To stand out, we need to make the food taste good so that they’ll want to eat it again next time.” freewebnσvel.cøm
…
“To satisfy mortals, the most important thing is to ensure there’s no poison in the food right?” Yu Feng thought from another perspective. He had experienced being poisoned to death several times, so for him, any food without poison would satisfy him.
…
Xia Chao and Xiao Qing looked at each other helplessly.
Xia Chao’s most vivid memory of a meal was a sticky substance mixed with various treasures from heaven and earth by Jiang Li. Eating that thing was a miracle itself.
“The legacy of dragon bloodline only has recipes about seafood.”
After some thought, Xia Chao said, “Let’s use seafood to cook. We are three thousand miles from the East Sea here. Mortal people rarely eat seafood.”
…
Ji Kongkong was considering whether to use the Reversible Pupils to see the results of the competition. Uncle Jiang seemed to have forgotten to forbid using the Reversible Pupils. Did he forget, or is he testing her self-control?
…
Wu Zhi felt that this competition was too difficult. Being a monk, he could only cook vegetarian food, and how could that satisfy common people?
…
“Cooking? Can I ask nearby restaurants to cook and bring it over?” Yu Youxian, who has hosted a live broadcast in Ming Zhong World for a while, eats takeout most of the time.
She thinks that was convenient.
…
“Cooking? Well, that’s easy; it’s my specialty.” Li Nian’er is good at cooking.
