Beast Taming: I Can Bestow Entries-Chapter 204: Epic Cuisine!?
Chapter 204: Chapter 204: Epic Cuisine!?
Chen Mo, with nothing else to do, began observing the "battle conditions" of the other contestants.
Naturally, his first attention was drawn to Liu Yang, the favorite to win this competition.
This man had always been quite unlucky.
Because the ingredients he drew were dried fruits and snacks, almost unsuitable for cooking, he had no choice but to make a simple fish and shrimp stew.
Even so, under the release of various gorgeous culinary skills by his three Commander Stage Food Spirits, his ordinary fish and shrimp stew surprisingly gave a "state banquet dish" impression.
Liu Yang’s three Food Spirits were the Commander Ninth Rank’s Golden Egg Fried Rice Spirit and Crystal Shrimp Spirit, along with a Sixth Rank Commander Rock ’n’ Roll Chicken Spirit.
This was quite a luxurious lineup, and each of them mastered many culinary skills.
In comparison, the lone Glutinous Rice Ball Spirit looked rather pitiful.
"No big deal, our Tuantuan has cheats."
Chen Mo withdrew his gaze.
After kneading the dough, two perfectly synchronized small Glutinous Rice Ball Spirits evenly divided the two different colored doughs into 10 portions each.
Then they rolled them into ping-pong-sized balls and cooked them in the pot.
Five minutes later, Tuantuan fished them out and placed them aside to dry.
Unfortunately, Tuantuan hadn’t learned the "fast-dry" move; otherwise, it could have gone directly to completion.
The process of making the Tri-colored Dumplings was relatively simple, and by this step, it was already roughly completed.
Next was the production of the milk cover.
Cheese + Moo Moo Milk + condensed milk + sugar, heated over water until smooth and delicate, then adding appropriate amounts of Moo Moo Milk and juice from two kinds of Spirit Fruits.
Under Tuantuan’s precise control, the pink Fei Ying Xiuqiu Fruit milk cover and the golden fruit milk cover were quickly completed.
Finally, once the dumplings were coated with the milk cover, the monochrome dumplings were finished.
Soon, 10 Fei Ying Xiuqiu Fruit-flavored dumplings and 10 golden fruit-flavored dumplings were ready.
Among them, one Fei Ying Xiuqiu Fruit-flavored dumpling flashed a golden light on its surface as it was completed.
"Success!"
A smile appeared on Chen Mo’s lips.
This was the glowing anomaly that only occurred with epic dishes, so epic dishes were also known as glowing cuisine.
The [God of Cooking] was triggered!
The dishes made by the wielder had a 50% chance to increase by one level, and in some sense, the monochromatic Spirit Fruit Dumplings also counted as a kind of delicacy!
Originally rare quality dumplings directly transcended into epic dumplings under some mysterious force!
On the judges’ seats.
Li Sisi, who always kept an eye on Tuantuan, blinked; she seemed to have seen a flicker of golden light on one of the dumplings.
"Epic cuisine?"
Then she shook her head.
"I must have seen it wrong, right? If an Extraordinary Level Food Spirit can make epic cuisine, I’d sooner believe pigs would fly!"
Among the other judges and audience present, some people also witnessed this scene, but they didn’t even consider epic cuisine, treating it as a unique effect of the dish.
Only Tao Ming, adhering to a truth-seeking attitude, let his Food Spirit sense the dumpling with the golden light flowing before.
The feedback received was — the Spirit Fruit Dumpling contained extremely rich Food Spirit energy, likely indicating it was epic cuisine! frёewebnoѵēl.com
"How is this possible!? It’s clearly just an Extraordinary Rank Food Spirit..."
Tao Ming felt extremely shocked inside, and then he quickly realized he was about to lose a bet!
If Chen Mo indeed made epic cuisine, not to mention top ten, winning the regional championship would be a walk in the park!
After all, an epic dish would earn a full 1,000 points just for quality!
Unless other Spirit Chefs could also produce epic cuisine!
He couldn’t help but glance at Li Sisi and Chen Meng nearby.
Could those two, along with Chen Mo, who "played dumb," be conspiring to fool him, an old man!?
-----------
"Squeak!"
At the dining table, Tuantuan closed its eyes, carefully sensing the Food Spirit energy within each dumpling to roughly determine its quality level.
Epic quality Fei Ying Xiuqiu Fruit-flavored dumpling — 1 piece; rare quality — 4 pieces; uncommon — 5 pieces.
As for the golden fruit dumplings, there were 3 pieces of rare quality and 7 pieces of uncommon quality.
This time, Tuantuan was indeed a bit unlucky.
The [God of Cooking]’s trigger rate was 50%, yet among the 20 dumplings, it only triggered 6 times.
However, it wasn’t a big deal; fortune does not save the unlucky, but gacha surely changes fate!
As long as the number of attempts is sufficient, the entry effect will definitely trigger!
Pastry-type foods have this advantage, a high fault tolerance.
If it fails, just make more several times.
If he had known earlier that desserts could be made in the finals, the entry of [Left and Right Hand Combat] wouldn’t even be needed.
Tuantuan picked out the best quality dumpling from each type of Spirit Fruit-flavored dumplings and used the Power of Food Spirit to preserve it, then began processing the other two kinds of Spirit Fruits.
As for the other dumplings, Tuantuan entrusted all of them to Chen Mo.
For the final Tri-colored Dumplings, only one dumpling from each flavor was needed, so naturally, the highest quality ones were picked!
Chen Mo summoned Xiao Jiu and Bing Lan.
"Eat up!"
"Oooh!"
"Chirp!"
The two Spiritual Beasts had been eagerly awaiting in the Spiritual Space, and even the little bluebird couldn’t maintain its poised and noble appearance as a divine bird anymore.
Now, the one drooling was the little bluebird; what did that have to do with its Ice Crystal Phoenix form?
Xiao Jiu and Bing Lan each took one, first tasting the Fei Ying Xiuqiu Fruit-flavored Glutinous Rice Dumpling.
The moment the sticky dumpling entered the mouth, the smooth milk cover flowed in, with strands of sweetness paired with the fragrance of cherry blossoms blooming on the tongue, making the beast feel joyful and delighted, involuntarily bringing certain beautiful scenes to mind.
These two rare-grade Fei Ying Xiuqiu Fruit Dumplings had special effects that brought happiness and joy while enhancing Grass-type Spiritual Beasts’ spiritual power absorption efficiency over a long period.
It was a relatively practical effect.
Thinking it over, an idle Chen Mo used chocolate syrup to draw vivid and cute faces on each dumpling before eating them.
Witnessing this scene, both the judges and audience were left speechless.
"What the heck! They made the cuisine and just ate it! Such boldness?"
"The dumplings Tuantuan worked hard to make were just eaten like that by Chen Mo. That Chen Gou really deserves it! Hugs for my Tuantuan!"
"Probably only kept the best quality ones, right? I think I saw a dumpling flash gold just now, but maybe it was my imagination."
"You think it’s a card draw? With golden outcomes!"
...
One person and two beasts each ate two Spirit Fruit Dumplings; the remaining ones were all left for Tuantuan to replenish its consumed Food Spirit power.
As the evolving food of the Glutinous Rice Ball Spirit, these "semi-finished" Tri-colored Dumplings were quite beneficial for Tuantuan’s growth and level increase, making it indeed a bit wasteful just to replenish Food Spirit energy.
But Tuantuan couldn’t eat them.
If it digested and absorbed them, Tuantuan might very well perform an "on-the-spot evolution."
