Beast Taming: I Can Bestow Entries-Chapter 206 This Time, the Food Spirit Takes Me Flying!

Chapter 206: Chapter 206 This Time, the Food Spirit Takes Me Flying!

Witnessing this scene, the whole venue was in an uproar.

After a few seconds of silence, the entire audience erupted.

A Food Spirit of the Extraordinary Rank had single-handedly created an epic culinary masterpiece!

And it used only rare and precious ingredients.

It was like a scene from a fantastical tale, yet it happened for real!

Liu Yang’s hair became disheveled in the wind.

The victory he thought he had secured, flew away.

Now, even if all the judges gave zero points, Chen Mo could still defend the championship title based solely on quality points.

"Having the Food Spirit substitute while I slack off, huh? And I still end up as the champion?"

"This is how one wins a championship by laying low!"

"This time, the Food Spirit takes me soaring!"

With Tuantuan creating an epic culinary masterpiece, the audience completely lost their sanity!

At the judges’ panel.

Although Tao Ming and Li Sisi were mentally prepared, they were still somewhat shocked at this moment.

How did that Food Spirit manage to do it!?

A slight smile unconsciously appeared at the corners of Chen Meng’s lips.

She hadn’t expected Chen Mo and Tuantuan to give her such a big surprise.

Seeing the smile on Chen Meng’s lips, Li Sisi became even more convinced of her inner speculation.

She spoke with feigned annoyance:

"Xiao Meng, stop that aunty’s smile. Here, this is a Starlight Stone. Originally, your mom asked me to pass it to you and then receive payment later, but now it’s a direct loss to you. Your Sisi sister honors the bet and tells your mom there’s no need to pay me."

Saying this, she took out an irregular stone the size of a fist, radiating beautiful light, from her Space Ring and handed it to Chen Meng.

The Starlight Stone, a legendary treasure.

Originally, she wanted Chen Meng to coax her by calling her ’Sisi sister’ a few times before giving it to her, but now it seemed out of the question.

"Cough cough, I also honor my bets. After the contest ends, I will personally make Fairy Jumping Wall for Master Meng. However, regarding the previous mention of the Tiger Shark Lord, could Master Meng take action? I am willing to add three more epic culinary ingredients."

Beside him, Tao Ming coughed lightly, stroked his goatee, and asked in a leisurely manner.

"It’s possible."

After a moment’s thought, Chen Meng did not refuse.

Although these three epic culinary ingredients weren’t of much use to her, they could be given to Chen Mo.

After all, Chen Mo — no, Tuantuan’s outstanding performance had made her win effortlessly.

She deserved a share of the spoils.

"Senior Tao Ming, could your Food Spirit use its culinary skill to replicate a few more servings of the Tricolor Dumplings?"

Just as the judges were preparing to taste and score the dish, Chen Mo suddenly asked.

He had seen a Spirit Chef make a small but exquisite serving of Premium Tofu, which was too little to be shared among all judges.

Thus, Tao Ming summoned a fungal Food Spirit with a head like a Liu Li umbrella, directly replicating 19 servings of Premium Tofu.

This time, he made only seven servings of the Colorful Dumplings, definitely not enough to go around.

"It’s possible, but the replicas will inevitably not fully replicate the true flavor of the cuisine, which might affect the judges’ final scores. Can you accept that?"

Tao Ming stroked his goatee and slowly asked.

"No problem!"

"Then Bamboo Mushroom Spirit, the more the better!"

Tao Ming spoke to his Food Spirit.

The Bamboo Mushroom Spirit is a fungal Food Spirit that possesses the exclusive culinary skill, "The More the Better."

Being able to "copy" and "paste" a dish.

The copied dishes can roughly replicate some of the original food’s texture, nutritional value, and unique taste.

Currently, Tao Ming’s bamboo mushroom spirit has reached the Monarch Stage, with its proficiency also reaching perfection.

However, restoring epic-level cuisine is still quite difficult. The "replicas" created can at most restore 80% of the original food’s taste.

As for the nutritional value and the special effects of the cuisine, it’s only 5%.

At the same time, this culinary technique consumes a significant amount of the Power of Food Spirit, and the higher the level of the ingredients needed to be copied, the more Power of Food Spirit is consumed.

Almost draining all the Power of Food Spirit inside, the bamboo mushroom spirit finally managed to copy 2 portions of what appeared to be identical multicolored dumplings.

In this way, each judge could basically get one.

"It’s been hard work."

Chen Mo thanked the bamboo mushroom spirit, and then handed over a Forest Fruit glutinous rice dumpling to the bamboo mushroom spirit.

After all, there was one extra.

"Hmm~"

The bamboo mushroom spirit beamed with joy.

"Respected seniors, please allow me to serve you personally. This tricolor dumpling contains one final step before tasting."

Saying so, Chen Mo arranged 20 Spirit Fruit-flavored glutinous rice dumplings on plates, placing them in front of each judge.

Next to Chen Mo, the Glutinous Rice Ball Spirit was holding a bowl almost as big as itself, filled with cherry-pink rice flour, which was made by mixing the dried and diced pulp of Fei Ying Xiuqiu Fruit with glutinous rice flour.

There were 6 small bowls containing different colored rice flours, held by the clones of the Glutinous Rice Ball Spirit.

"Ying!"

When Chen Mo placed the Spirit Fruit Dumplings in front of the judges, Tuantuan manipulated the Power of Food Spirit to sprinkle the corresponding rice flour on top of the dumplings.

Seeing the Glutinous Rice Ball Spirit’s action of sprinkling flour, Chen Mo couldn’t help but think of a person from his previous life known as "Salt Bae."

"Delicious!"

"Sweet and sticky with a rich fruit fragrance, this is the best glutinous rice dumpling I’ve ever had!"

"Old Tao, let your bamboo mushroom spirit copy a few more! I haven’t had enough!"

...

Soon, the Spirit Master judges began the tasting, and unanimously gave high scores.

"Not bad."

Chen Meng nodded calmly in approval.

Yet, she secretly made up her mind—

After the competition ends, she definitely plans to trick Tuantuan into coming back and make lots of tricolor dumplings for her!

Next, it was the Food Spirit judges’ turn to taste.

Just like before, Chen Mo arranged the plates, and Tuantuan sprinkled the flour.

This layer of glutinous rice flour served more than just decoration, its main function through the "Master of Taste Coordination" was to adjust each dumpling to the favorite taste of each Food Spirit judge.

"Huhuhu~" (Spicy enough! Strong enough!)

A spicy lobster king spirit, after tasting a fiery fruit dumpling, spouted a dazzling flame from its mouth. Its face turned bright red, a look of sheer bliss on its face, then it immediately, without hesitation, raised a scorecard of 10 points.

Following that, the Deep Sea Octopus Burn Spirit, Chenxiang Pickles Spirit, and Vegetable Dog Spirit, after tasting various Spirit Fruit-flavored dumplings, all gave full marks!

The dumplings were not only soft, sweet, and fragrant, but they also contained their most favored flavors!

The Deep Sea Octopus Burn Spirit tasted the flavor of ocean breeze, and the Vegetable Dog Spirit smelled the scent of the forest...

The Food Spirit judges had simple minds; encountering food they liked, of course they arranged full marks!

What’s more important is that in their eyes, Chen Mo and Tuantuan were, so far, the first contestants who respected the competition rules.

If the first round "Independent Strength" tested the fighting power of Food Spirits, the adaptability of Spirit Chefs, and their familiarity with the ingredients, then the second round "Diverse Tastes" actually tested the Spirit Chef’s ability to match flavors and manipulation skills.

Other Spirit Chefs, upon seeing this rule, opted to just give up, not starting from enhancing the richness of the food’s taste but rather, trying hard to improve the culinary quality points.

Only Tuantuan truly made cuisine that matched the taste buds of all Food Spirits!
