Chapter 137
〖The last chapter has been modified 2024.01.02〗
After the break, many contestants who passed the semi-finals got up and walked towards the competition venue.
Zhu Fan found a corner to stay like before.
Not long after, a few more guys came over - they were still the disciples of the Medicine King Hall.
Zhu Fan looked at their expressions, and almost had the words"You're in trouble" written on their faces, and he was speechless.
Zhu Fan didn't understand why. The people in this fantasy world are just like some TV dramas full of complaints. They only grow older but not more scheming. They didn't even cover up the expressions on their faces, for fear that he couldn't see it?
Thinking of some things that Ye Yusong had explained before, Zhu Fan understood.
Just now, Ye Yusong's No. 2 clone called him out, gave him some instructions, and gave him some things.
Zhu Fan didn't know before that the fundamental reason why those Medicine King Hall disciples made so many mistakes was because his cooking smelled too good...
After Ye Yusong told him, Zhu Fan realized that his group was not a group for novices, and the favorite to win the championship was the one who leaked next to him...
This was a bit emmm...
According to Ye Yusong, regardless of whether Zhu Fan did it intentionally or unintentionally, the Medicine King Hall's petty and narrow-minded nature would definitely take revenge.
Looking at the looks of those guys, Zhu Fan gave the deputy head a thumbs up in his heart.
As expected of the deputy head, he could easily predict the actions of the Medicine King Hall!
After all the contestants were ready, several judges announced the test questions for the rematch: refine a pill that can permanently improve the strength of the physical body, the grade must not be lower than the fifth grade, and each furnace must not be less than seven pills.
Unlike the Qi and Blood Pill, most Qi and Blood Pills are only consumed by physical cultivators when refining Qi and blood.
The pills that can permanently improve the physical body are difficult to refine, and every cultivator can eat them. In addition, some materials are not easy to cultivate, so they have always been in short supply.
So when this question came out, the cultivators present were all aroused with some interest.
First, with so many alchemists participating in the competition, if they refine the Eternal Chie Pill or the Amber Vine Pill, they may be sold after the competition. If they are quick, they may be able to grab one.
Second, many cultivators are also curious whether Zhu Fan is also capable of making food with such effects.
Zhu Fan looked at the large amount of materials prepared by the Yuanliu Sect and opened the mall to find a suitable recipe.
After confirming, when he walked over to choose the ingredients, he suddenly felt the disciples of the Medicine King Hall behind him staring at him excitedly - the pig demon next to his hand.
What does it mean?
Zhu Fan thought, could it be that the gang wanted to come and snatch the materials from him?
But it would be useless to snatch them, because the Yuanliu Sect would replenish them.
After all, in such a big competition, if the materials are short of weight, people will say that you are the top sect of the Yuanliu Sect, why are you so stingy?
Therefore, when the six major sects prepare for the competition, they usually highlight the large quantity and fullness.
Therefore, the disciples of Medicine King Hall did not make a move to snatch it, but just watched Zhu Fan stay beside the pig demon, showing a meaningful smile.
Zhu Fan:... Don't laugh, if you laugh for a while, everyone in the audience will know that there is something wrong with you.
I don't know what the head of Medicine King Hall would think when he saw their disciples giving it away for free...
Zhu Fan, who had guessed something, took a few other ingredients. Unlike the previous cooking, he took some spiritual plants called double-thorn roses and the spiritual power-rich Xiqing Dew.
After the contestants selected the ingredients, the semi-finals officially began.
The remaining disciples of Medicine King Hall looked at each other and nodded.
In order to prevent being affected like in the preliminary round, several people took the pills given by the head of Medicine King Hall before the semi-finals began, temporarily blocking their taste and smell.
So this time, they will not be distracted and make mistakes!
Moreover, they have also mastered the way to retaliate!
Just wait for Zhu Fan to do it like before...
Several people sneered and began to take the materials to make pills, while"secretly" paying attention to Zhu Fan's every move.
Zhu Fan:...Can you guys be more obvious? Can I use a magnifying glass to show you?
I have to say, these guys are really awesome.
One eye is staring at the alchemy furnace and the other eye can look at him... (A big smart emoticon is needed here) They are indeed cultivators, can they even do such a thing?
Zhu Fan was deeply impressed by the diversity of cultivators' abilities again.
Zhu Fan lowered his head and couldn't bear to look at their appearance.
Otherwise, he was really afraid that he would laugh out loud.
He took out the glutinous rice flour, mixed it with warm water, and kneaded it into a smooth dough.
Zhu Fan's behavior this time was very similar to the movements when he made meatballs before. Several disciples of the Medicine King Hall watched and felt more relieved.
The dough was almost kneaded, and Zhu Fan put it aside to wake it up, and then began to prepare the filling.
The recipe Zhu Fan chose this time was - colorful glutinous rice balls.
He wanted to make other dishes before, but after noticing the eyes of those disciples, he changed his mind.
It seems that the Medicine King Hall targeted him based on his behavior in the preliminary round.
In that case, let's change the same type of food and see what they want.
The preparation of glutinous rice balls is similar to that of meatballs, that is, making various fillings and mixing them evenly.
There are five kinds of fillings for the colorful glutinous rice balls that Zhu Fan is going to make this time, among which the most classic ones are black sesame filling, five-kernel peanut filling, red bean paste filling, and two kinds of rose filling and purple sweet potato filling.
Zhu Fan ate black sesame glutinous rice balls most often when he was a child, and he also liked this kind the most.
The rose filling glutinous rice balls and purple sweet potato filling glutinous rice balls were given to him by his friend who bought too many online and couldn't finish them. He tried them and they tasted very good.
When Zhu Fan was carefully mixing various fillings, the disciples of the Medicine King Hall next to him were waiting anxiously.
Why doesn't this guy start the fire and add oil! The disciples of the Medicine King Hall shouted anxiously in their hearts.
The restlessness caused by this kid before led to mistakes in alchemy, and the disciples of the Medicine King Hall were very frustrated.
Later, their master gave them an idea - like in the preliminary round, they should surround the boy and take advantage of the boy's hot oil to quickly increase the temperature of the spiritual fire and expand the scope of influence.
Oil is flammable, and Zhu Fan's temperature is also very high when he is cooking. They quietly use the spiritual fire as a guide and look for the right opportunity to detonate - the disciples know very well that Zhu Fan is a cultivator, and this degree of burning will not have much effect on him, but as long as the ingredients in his pot are destroyed, Zhu Fan will be eliminated and miss the finals.
And he will definitely lose face, just like them!
Hahaha, what spiritual chef? You fried the alchemy furnace before, and you fried the oil pan this time, right?
The Medicine King Hall even thought of a mocking word.
So, at this moment, the disciples of the Medicine King Hall were waiting for Zhu Fan to heat the pan and fry the meatballs like before.
They waited and waited, and Zhu
Fan mixed the dough. They waited and waited, and Zhu Fan prepared the stuffing. They waited and waited, and Zhu Fan wrapped the glutinous rice balls and made them round.
Then, under their expectant eyes, Zhu Fan began to lift the pot.
Zhu Fan began to prepare to light the fire!
The disciples of the Medicine King Hall were very excited and began to urge the spiritual fire.
Then, Zhu Fan raised his hand and poured a large basin of Xiqinglu into the pot in front of all of them - and started to boil water!
The disciples of the Medicine King Hall: ? ?
? No, shouldn't you heat the oil?
Why did you boil water instead?
The disciples were all stunned.
This, this, this... the plan can't go on!
Whose water can be lit!
