Chapter 1259 - The Little Saint Test Begins

Chapter 1259 The Little Saint Test Begins

“Is this pancake really edible?”The Prison General doubts were shared by everyone. After seeing Bu Fang’s cooking process through the light screen, the casual cooking style had left them bewildered. They had the delusion that they could cook this dish too because it really didn’t look difficult to make.

“Did Owner Bu really inflate his ego?”

“Is it because of the success of the previous two days? Is he no longer pursuing quality but just wants to make money?”

“This chef mustn’t forget that people love his dishes because they’re delicious! If his dish is not good enough today, nobody would want to patronize his business, and he will become a loser and leave here dejectedly.”

“Try it.” Bu Fang also saw the doubt in the Prison General’s eyes. It was true that the cooking process of this crispy pancake looked really casual, but this was its essence. It should be casually cooked and casually enjoyed. As for the taste, one would only know after tasting it. “Because you didn’t add a lot of ingredients, it may not taste so delicious,” he added after thinking about it.

Upon hearing Bu Fang’s words, everyone’s eyes, including Mo Yan and the others, grew suspicious. ‘Is Owner Bu starting to make excuses for the food’s bad taste?’

The Prison General gave an awkward but polite smile and took the crispy pancake from Bu Fang. As soon as his hand touched it, a warm sensation spread out of the paper bag, which made him relieved. ‘Even if it doesn’t taste good, it shouldn’t be too bad... After all, Owner Bu’s previous two dishes were delicious,’ he muttered in his mind. Then, he grabbed the pancake and prepared to eat it.

The crispy pancake in his hand was emitting steam, while tiny water drops trickled slowly on the inside of the paper bag. The outermost layer of the food was the fried pancake—it was soft and gave off the aroma of flour. Although the spirit beast egg was casually added and absorbed by the pancake, the egg fragrance was intense. Under the pancake was a piece of demon beef, which was fried to perfection. It was a little darker because it was cooked just right. Oil seeped out of the meat and soaked the pancake, making the whole thing look appetizing. Of course, the green immortal vegetable also looked delicious.

Gulp.

Unconsciously, everyone swallowed. Through the projection array in the Prison General’s hand, they could clearly see on the light screen the appearance of the crispy pancake and even the shining water drops on the vegetable. Suddenly, their appetites were also aroused. The pancake looked very attractive.

The Prison General’s mouth watered, and he couldn’t help taking a bite of the crispy pancake. His teeth bit through the soft and tender pancake and then touched the demon beef. The meat had a tender texture with a chewy touch, and it separated as soon as he bit into it. When he got to the crunchy immortal vegetable, a refreshing taste immediately filled his mouth.

His eyes suddenly widened. Although he thought the pancake was amazing and delicious when he bit into it, he felt that there was something missing. However, when he tasted the immortal vegetable, he realized what was missing was the vegetable’s crunchy texture.

Perfect! This crispy pancake mixed almost all flavors perfectly, fully satisfying all his inner cravings!

He was so wrong! He thought Bu Fang was not serious about the dish and just wanted to make money, but when he actually took a bite of the crispy pancake, he realized how wrong he was. Today’s dish was not inferior to the previous dishes at all. In fact, it was even easier to satisfy customers’ appetite for delicious food because there were more ingredients to choose from.

This was a dish that could not be described by words!

“It’s... delicious...” the Prison General mumbled with misty eyes. He couldn’t wait to take another bite.

When he took the second bite, his nostrils widened, his face looked intoxicated, and his cheeks bulged as his mouth was full of the crispy pancake.

“The heat, the aroma, and a touch of sourness... What a perfect combination! How can there be such delicious food in this world?!” he said as he chewed, steam rushing out of his mouth.

Who said it was not delicious? This crispy pancake could only be described in one word, and any other extra words would be blasphemy against it! The word was delicious!

Mo Yan and the others were somewhat surprised. Judging from the Prison General’s reaction, he seemed to have been completely captured by the crispy pancake! Was it really so delicious?

A fragrance wafted through the air. It was the aroma of the crispy pancake. Although it smelled a little greasy, it didn’t make people feel bad. This kind of feeling was the most attractive.

“Owner Bu... give me a crispy pancake! I want to add this... this... and this!” said Mo Yan without hesitation, her eyes bright as she stood in front of the stall and pointed to several ingredients. Since Bu Fang’s first few customers could enjoy a 90% discount, of course, she wanted to add more ingredients.

Bu Fang glanced at Mo Yan and nodded. He then scooped up a spoonful of batter and poured it over the iron plate. Steam immediately rose up into the air. Once again, he began to cook the crispy pancake.

The Prison General was intoxicated with the delicious taste of the crispy pancake. In a short time, he had finished the whole pancake. At this moment, he felt a little empty inside. It was a terrible feeling. The feeling of emptiness made his eyes go blank. There was only one thought left in his mind now: he wanted to eat again! He had been bewitched by the crispy pancake!

Unconsciously, he took a bite of the paper bag used to wrap the crispy pancake. The dryness in his mouth widened his eyes, and he immediately turned to the side and spat out the piece of paper.

“It’s delicious! I want more!” After saying that, the Prison General joined the queue, waiting patiently behind Zhu Yan and the others. Since it was still early, there were not many customers, so he could take the opportunity to eat a few more crispy pancakes.

All the people looking at the light screens were stupefied. Didn’t someone say that the dish cooked casually would not be delicious? Why did everyone eat it with such relish? Moreover, they felt hungry just by looking at the crispy pancakes and couldn’t wait to taste it. Did this dish really have magic?

As time went by, the square became more crowded, and Bu Fang’s stall was surrounded by customers. They were the same customers as the first two days, and they were still queuing up.

The corners of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched slightly. Looking at the booming business, he felt a little excited. As the Immortal Crystals kept coming in, he felt that he was getting closer to the goal of the Little Saint test. His turnover task was almost reaching the bottleneck.

The sales of crispy pancakes were very good. Its popularity was somewhat beyond his expectation. In fact, it was even more popular than yesterday’s boiled kebabs. As he watched the people around him happily eat the delicious pancakes, his face was filled with a faint sense of satisfaction. There was nothing more satisfying than watching every customer around him happily eating the delicious food he had cooked.

Meanwhile, experts in different small worlds had already gone crazy. They were provoked by the scenes on the light screens. Was the crispy pancake really so delicious? They couldn’t wait to try it.

This also triggered a wave of followers. Many people in various small worlds began to copy Bu Fang. They set up their own wooden stalls and iron plates, then prepared batter and ingredients just like him, wanting to make crispy pancakes and earn some money. Their cooking styles were very casual as well, and some even managed to make pancakes that looked just like Bu Fang’s. However, their pancakes were tasteless, and it was very difficult for them to reach the level of Bu Fang’s crispy pancakes.

It drove a lot of people crazy. They couldn’t wait to go to Earth Prison just to taste those crispy pancakes. However, they quickly gave up because they knew that he cooked different dishes every day. Even if they rushed there now, they wouldn’t be able to eat it. This made many people almost mad with despair.

...

The third day of the tournament finally came. On this day, the team and individual competitions would be held simultaneously. Ten teams from different small worlds would be selected for the semi-finals in the team competition, while in the individual competition, about fifty contestants would be selected to enter the semi-finals. Therefore, the third day of the tournament was very important.

One could clearly feel that the atmosphere was different from that of the previous two days. There was a tense feeling in the air that kept provoking at one’s skin. That was, of course, if they didn’t look to the other side of the square, which was the strangest sight in this tournament. There, a large number of people were waiting patiently in line just to get a hot crispy pancake.

Mo Yan, Zhu Yan, Xuanyuan Xiahui, and Fang Yu all chose to give up the individual competition. Although they were here to gain experience, they also understood that their cultivation bases were too weak. Since Zhu Yan was severely beaten up in the arena, they had chosen not to participate in the individual matches. However, even though they had lost their qualification to participate in the individual competition, they still had the team competition.

Bu Fang, on the other hand, decided to take part in several individual matches. This time, the matching system was quite normal. He didn’t meet any Little Saints, and all his opponents were of similar strength. As a result, he naturally won all the matches. He didn’t even use Spirit Possession, but only relied on his Yin and Yang Taotie Arm to beat his opponents into submission. In the end, he made it to the semi-finals of the individual competition.

The Abyss and Vajra Realm experts seemed to have learned their lesson after last night’s attack. They didn’t continue to target Bu Fang in the competition.

Although Mo Yan and the others were eliminated, Bu Fang had advanced to the semi-finals of the individual competition. This was great news for the Immortal Cooking Realm, and everyone was cheering and shouting his name. After all, it was an honor to reach the semi-finals.

The fifty slots in the semi-finals were basically all taken by experts from first-class small worlds. Bu Fang was the first to claim a place as an expert from a non-first-class small world. This impressed many people. No one thought he got lucky, though. After all, many people had witnessed the battle last night and saw how he alone had seriously injured four Little Saints who attacked him. Such fearsome strength had frightened many experts from first-class small worlds.

The Vajra Realm was punished by being disqualified from the individual competition and retaining only the qualification for the team competition. The Abyss, however, didn’t receive any punishment because it refused to admit its involvement in the attack last night. Nevertheless, the Abyss experts didn’t dare to assault Bu Fang again.

After the preliminary round of the individual competition was concluded, the team competition took place. Many teams got their spirits up because they knew that the matches would be a violent one.

Bu Fang gave Fa Wu the crispy pancake in his hand. The drooling monk took the paper bag and handed the Immortal Crystals to him. All of a sudden, the System’s serious voice rang in his mind.

‘Congratulations to the Host for reaching enough turnover and for qualifying for the Little Saint test. Does the Host wish to start the Little Saint test now?’

At this moment, Commander Mo Yuan’s cold voice came from the direction of the arena. “The next team match will be fought between the Immortal Cooking Realm and the Wandering Soul Realm. Contestants of both teams, please come to the arena now.”
