My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts-Chapter 581 - 196 Painted Face_2
Among the people whose smiles froze, Zhang Ye and the other four were conspicuously included. They suddenly felt that their previous pride and arrogance had vanished. Although they found His Majesty Tosuo quite annoying, they had to admit that he was speaking the truth.
Powerful spiritual power represents powerful control. Although, in the current instructors and students of the Food Department, apart from the 3S-level genius Du Xixi, the highest spiritual power of others is only A+ Level, which is precisely Zhang Ye, who is now teaching students the "Introduction and Application of Knives."
Zhang Ye’s spiritual power is considered strong, surpassing nearly ninety percent of the interstellar people. Therefore, in practicing knife skills, Zhang Ye has a natural advantage, which is also one of the reasons why the course "Introduction and Application of Knives" was assigned to him initially.
Of course, the worst spiritual talent among He Yuan and the others is A-. The two minor levels of spiritual power difference are not very apparent among the professors. But for students, the importance of this gap becomes evident.
The four students standing next to Zhang Ye all have spiritual talents at B+ Level and above. Their spiritual power is outstanding among the students of the entire Food Department. This higher spiritual power indeed brought them advantages, allowing their knife skills to surpass other students, qualifying them to stand by Zhang Ye.
His Majesty Tosuo’s meaning couldn’t be clearer. Their achievements are due to both effort and talent. But if they work harder, they can do even better.
Their current works may be deemed "impressive" by His Majesty Tosuo, but they do not reach the level of what His Majesty Tosuo truly considers impressive.
As a teacher, Zhang Ye is more suitable than the students to speak at this moment. He took a deep breath, and with no trace of discontent for His Majesty Tosuo’s "harsh criticism," he gratefully said, "Thank you, Your Majesty Tosuo, for the guidance! We will continue to work hard!"
Zhang Ye expressed his stance, and although the four students said nothing, their expressions undoubtedly conveyed their inner thoughts. They straightened their faces and nodded solemnly at His Majesty Tosuo watching them.
His Majesty Tosuo’s expression remained as uninhibited as ever. After hearing Zhang Ye’s words, he merely grunted indifferently, seeming unaware of what Zhang Ye meant by "guidance," and promptly turned to walk upstairs.
The three were scheduled to meet, and as His Majesty Tosuo walked upstairs, His Majesty the Iron-eating Beast and the Minister of the Military couldn’t linger here any longer. They gazed for a while longer at the various little animals displayed on the table, even spending some time examining a latest model hovercar, resembling a small model.
The two then quickened their pace upstairs. They knew the upstairs was where Du Xixi’s "Culinary Experience Zone" was located. Whether out of goodwill towards Du Xixi or curiosity about the term "experience," their steps inevitably hastened.
The second floor was noisy, while the third floor was quiet. There was no scene of onlookers gathering around, only individuals standing in front of a platform, cautiously kneading dough step by step, following the movements of Du Xixi on the podium.
His Majesty the Iron-eating Beast and the Minister of the Military walked in silently and immediately spotted His Majesty Tosuo standing at one of the platforms. Earlier downstairs, His Majesty Tosuo was brash, but now he resembled a diligent student, kneading dough bit by bit with the others.
This was the "culinary experience" arranged by Du Xixi. She initially intended to teach everyone carving, as it was a hands-on activity and downstairs, Zhang Ye and the others could attract interest. She’d then lead everyone in practice, wouldn’t that be logical?
However, since everyone was already queuing downstairs to visit the Food Department, Du Xixi changed her mind at the last minute, deciding that while carving certainly had its place, it was too singular.
What if everyone’s impression of the Food Department ended up being solely about impressive knife skills and they knew nothing about other areas? With the vast variety of culinary arts—steaming, frying, cooking, boiling—they could diversify beyond just carving.
Du Xixi promptly decided to switch to another interesting experience project—dough kneading! Kneading dough is indeed a skillful task. Cold water or hot water? How much to add at once? Should you stir while adding water...
At least when Du Xixi initially learned to knead dough, several older masters repeatedly emphasized this. She could afford to miss out on certain pastry skills or even give them up, but she absolutely could not make errors in pastry making, nor mislearn the traditional crafts passed down by ancestors.
