Chapter 88: Chapter 86: Master Han, I Understand You!_1

"Ah, I’ve had a run of bad luck..."

Two hundred meters away from the cage, there was a designated area, which was the wild cooking spot.

Here, they could both watch the students hunting rabbits and set up fir for roasting, a two-in-one deal.

Ye Hanjun, who was still slightly annoyed, had some difficulty carrying the rabbit. After arriving at the empty pit, he tossed it on the ground with a thud.

"Assistant Han, I learned a lot today, that was so fast! Such a ruthless knife!"

Thirty meters away, Liu Xin, who had previously been sitting on a stone pier, suddenly stood up. His hearty laughter concealed a hint of flattery.

"It’s nothing, practice well and you can do it too."

Ye Hanjun glanced at him, his desire to chatter was extremely low.

So hungry...

No, should say so greedy!

Why did they kill the rabbits? It was all to satisfy the appetite, right?

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

In the wild cooking area covering thousands of square meters, Ye Hanjun, who was sitting in the southeast corner, was engrossed and focused.

He took out several tiny bottles from his bag and lined them up in front of him.

Then, he first cleaned his hands with a disinfecting wipe.

Next, he used the Bloodsucking Dagger to make a cut along the red-eye meat-eating rabbit’s backbone.

After removing all the organs, he temporarily stored them in a clean bag. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Next, he continued to cut. The larger rabbit, cross-cutting the head, slicing the forelegs and hind legs, were all pretty straightforward.

The difficulty was the trunk, but Ye Hanjun’s knife skills were practiced and adept. Whether to slice or cube, he did accordingly and prepared everything without any errors.

Liu Xin, who was sneakily observing him, displayed a somewhat envious expression.

Lowering his head to look at his own pit, the more substantial red-eye meat-eating rabbit, he sliced a leg from its hindquarter.

That was it, and he had been dawdling for a long time. There were random knife marks all over the place.

— Too crude, there was simply no comparison.

"Bang!"

Without any warning, tens of meters away, a big fire burst up, and the falling sparks tingled as they hit the ground.

Ye Hanjun’s eyelid twitched slightly, and he couldn’t help but look up.

Wang Xinfei— this miss from the Wang family, was indeed no stranger to hardship.

She squatted on the ground, and the firewood that had been piled up together somehow dispersed all over the floor.

And her, suppressing a somewhat pale and retching expression, was attempting to cut the rabbit with the silver spear.

That red-eye meat-eating rabbit that had died due to the kicks and charge of the armored horse was already pitiful enough. Now with a hole here and there, it was dreadful upon dreadful.

The key point was, after fussing for half a day, either it turned into mashed meat, or the chunks of meat were too large, and there were hardly a few pieces of meat that could be normally roasted.

"No one can beat that, causing such a fuss just to roast some meat..."

Ye Hanjun shook his head, without any intention of offering guidance or assistance.

He allocates a part of his attention to continue watching the clumsy and brainless operations of several new patrons.

His hands hadn’t stopped, and he already started brushing oil on the meat.

Only allowed to use salt? How could that be possible?

How can the restrictions imposed on the students apply to him as an assistant?

Ye Hanjun held back his salivating mouth, not only did he brush oil, but he also used all sorts of peppers...

Of course, the seasoning powder made from grounding Fennel Pig bones was an essential key, most suitable for use at the marinating stage.

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle——"

The firewood was burning.

When the temperature was just right, skewers of rabbit meat, each piece strung on a rib bone, began to receive the baptism of the flame.

In a short while, the aroma began to drift.

This was perfectly cut, lean yet fat-ratio balanced rabbit meat, combined with a mix of various seasonings.

When a pale golden gloss emerged on the skewers, the aroma reached an extremely intense degree, blanketing the whole open-air picnic area.

"Assistant Han sure knows how to grill..."

"In comparison, what we made is hard to swallow..."

A student was gulping heavily.

It was unclear whether his sense of smell was playing tricks, but the grilled meat Assistant Han prepared gave off a faint milky fragrance. Simply smelling it was enough to stir one’s appetite.

Ye Hanjun showed a slight smile. This was the principal reason he chose Clay-based Illusion rather than Small Achievement.

Only the rabbit meat could produce this extra aroma, allowing for a double-fold enjoyment when tasted.

"Wow!"

"Bullying us with only salt, that’s too excessive!"

Gradually, more students brought their rabbits over to grill.

Even before they started, they were shocked by the lingering aroma.

Once they figured out what was happening, the students, who moments ago thought highly of Assistant Han’s gentleness and kindness, began to harbor grievances.

"In my opinion, Assistant Han is honing our skills!"

"Think about it, he demonstrated not only how to kill the rabbit but also how to turn it into delicious food. Is this not comprehensive training?"

"We can’t imitate killing rabbits, but grilling them, if we work hard, we might get the hang of it. Don’t just stand there salivating, start grilling!"

Piao Chenlong. Always Piao Chenlong, the imaginative freak...

Ye Hanjun shot him a glance, eyes icy.

To his surprise, the boy became even more excited, hyped up like a rooster on steroids, coming up with various theories.

The students listening to him, inexplicably, were incredibly susceptible to his brainwashing.

Back at their respective spots, they sniffed the aroma of Ye Clan’s grilled meat that fiddled in the air while fiddling with their semi-raw meat hunks. Despite the hardship clearly written across their faces, they steeled themselves and continued trying.

"Fat Tiger, let’s grill some meat as well!"

Piao Chenlong thumped his chest, ready for action.

Perhaps sensing Ye Hanjun’s compelling gaze, he laughed widely, displaying a set of "I totally understand you" confident eyes.

"Crack-"

The rib bone in Ye Hanjun’s hand broke.

This damn pig, perhaps, shouldn’t have been saved...

Saving a pig, he earned a witless student who admired him, in turn influencing other normal students.

In addition to his intangible reputation, he ran the risk of being adored to death, which could easily attract grudges from the intentional ones...

Unexpectedly, Ye Hanjun suddenly felt that the skewer of meat in his hand wasn’t enticing anymore.

It seems that he must find an opportunity to discipline Piao Chenlong, to force him into being a little more honest and quiet.

While thinking, Ye Hanjun devoured the meat, shoving another piece mandatorily into his mouth.

After finishing his nutritious meal, he exchanged glances with Su Mei, feigning ignorance of her amused look. Carrying his bag, he quickly left the picnic area.

Now it’s time to get some real work done.

For the students, they could use the entire day to match wits and bravery with the rabbits, which was a fairly relaxed schedule.

But it clearly wasn’t the case for him.

Without a doubt, by tonight or tomorrow at the latest, Dong Xuan and Zhi Zhengqing would announce the rules for the trial.

As the accompanying assistant who was far weaker than the other six, Ye Hanjun certainly didn’t feel secure.

Having in hand the means to empower Huazhu, he wanted to take advantage of this free time to give it a try.
