Chapter 362: Chapter 362: Different

“Whoo—”

The train let out a prolonged steam whistle and then started its journey with a constant shaking vibration, like a long dragon driving towards the distance.

Sitting in the same carriage, Qin Lang and his companions sat facing each other.

“Ye Zhi City and Xianyu City are not far from each other.” Shen Qian glanced at the train itinerary, “It only takes an hour for us to reach Xianyu City.”

“Let putting the Star Hunter aside. There is only a week left before the cooking contest in Xianyu City starts, so according to the normal registration rules, the registration will end 48 hours before the start of the competition, and the theme of the scoring match will also be announced by then.”

“That means, we need to obtain three first-level food recommender badges within five days to participate in the competition smoothly.” Shen Qian glanced at Qin Lang, “Do you think that’s a problem?”

“Of course it’s not a problem.” Qin Lang shook his head without hesitation.

When he first participated in the Dongxia City Cooking Competition, he had already achieved the feat of acquiring three First-Level Food Recommender Badges within three days.

At this moment, his culinary skills, having traveled and learned in this world, were much improved compared to before. Obviously, he would not be perplexed by this sort of challenge.

” In that case, shall we have a little competition?” Shen Qian proposed with a beaming smile, “After we get to Xianyu City, let’s see who among us can get the three badges faster.”

“That’s an interesting competition.” Zhou Tianhao, who was considering the issue about the Star Hunter, couldn’t resist joining in when he heard their conversation, “Previously in Xieyu City, it took me six days to get the three badges.”

“Both your culinary skills are better than mine. It shouldn’t be a problem to get those badges within five days. Let’s see who is faster among you two.”

“Ok.” Qin Lang naturally had no objection.

He missed being assessed by a First-Level Food Recommender for quite a long time.

He wondered what kind of First-Level Food Recommenders he’d meet in Xianyu City.

As he thought about it, Qin Lang took out his phone to check on the official website of the Xianyu City Spirit Chef Association.

On the other hand, Shen Qian, apparently having the same idea as Qin Lang, was also looking down and studying the information about the food recommenders in Xianyu City.

As for Zhou Tianhao, he turned his attention back to the issue regarding the

Star Hunter, and began to draw on a piece of paper, appearing to be contemplating his next move.

A quiet journey ensued, and the three of them finally arrived in Xianyu City as the train stopped once again.

As one of the coastal cities in Mingjing Province, Xianyu City sits next to Beautiful Bay. As soon as Qin Lang stepped out of the train, he smelled the briny sea breeze and experienced the unique features of a coastal city.

This place is known for its seafood. Even among the 11 food recommenders in the city, there were seven whose testing content was linked to different types of aquatic products.

This was rare in other cities.

The three headed straight for the hotel they had booked earlier. After they had checked in and left their luggage, Qin Lang and Shen Qian split up to start their unique competition.

Meanwhile, Zhou Tianhao rushed to the Xianyu City Spirit Chef Association as soon as possible. He had already contacted the president of the local Association, Zhang Tianze, and was going to take part in a strategy meeting against the Star Hunter next.

“Qin Lang, I won!”

The moment she received her third First-Level Food Recommender Badge, Shen Qian placed all three badges on her chest and took a selfie and immediately sent it to Qin Lang, with a grinning emoticon.

Soon,her phone buzzed.

Qin Lang also sent a photo back, in which he held the registration card for the Xianyu City Cooking Competition and the background was the Xianyu City Spirit Chef Association.

Qin Lang: “I’ve finished registration.”

Shen Qian’s triumphant smile fades slightly as she grinds her small tiger teeth.

This nasty fellow!

It takes time to complete the registration. Evidently, the opponent obtained three First-Level Food Recommender Badges faster than she did.

“Whoo-whoo… Piggie Squad, Shrimp Ball, we lost again!” Shen Qian lamented, looking at the two Food Spirits following behind her.

The two Food Spirits looked at each other and expressed an expression of helplessness.

Both had already gotten used to losing.

On the other hand, Qin Lang, who had completed his registration, chuckled, “I didn’t expect Shen Qian’s pace to be this fast, just like me, she got three First- Level badges in two days.”

“However, we were a little bit faster.”

“Gulu!”

“Crack!”

Dan Bao and Spicy nodded in agreement. Although they hadn’t seen it, they could already imagine the faces of Piggie Squad and Shrimp Ball after being defeated.

“Let me see if there are any differences between Xianyu City’s cooking competition and that of Dongxia City.” Qin Lang put the competition certificate in his pocket and picked up the promotional brochure given at the time of registration to look through it.

After reading it once, he shook his head and relaxed, “Doesn’t seem to be any difference.”

Just like the cooking competition in Dongxia City, Xianyu City’s cooking competition has three rounds: the scoring competition, the elimination competition, and the ranking competition.

In the scoring competition, all competing Spirit Chefs cooked with the same theme and were scored by a panel of judges. The top 8 chefs advanced to the elimination competition.

In the elimination competition, they were paired with someone else through a draw. The winner advanced to the ranking competition, and the loser was eliminated.

The final ranking competition was a duel between four remaining chefs to determine the final rankings.

“Since Xianyu City’s cooking competition is the same as Dongxia City’s, let s add some difference to it.” Qin Lang chuckled.

“What do you think, if I choose to cook in a transparent mode in the city-level competition allowing audiences to see the entire cooking process, how would the other contestants react?”

Dan Bao and Spicy looked at each other, and anticipation appeared on both their faces.

That sounds pretty interesting!

“The theme of the scoring competition will be announced in three days.’ Qin Lang stretched out, “During these three days, let’s take some rest.”

“We came to Xianyu City and haven’t savored the local delicacies yet.”

“Let’s take advantage of these three days to try a bit more.

“By the way, Zhou Brother has been attending meetings at the Spirit Chef Association for two days and hasn’t come back even at night. I wonder if he’s finished today.”

If II

The two spirits chatted lazily while walking back in the direction of the hotel.. When they pushed open the hotel room door, they were greeted by a tall figure at the entrance.

“Zhou Brother, you’re back?” Qin Lang smiled, “Just now Dan Bao, Spicy, and I were just talking about you.”

“Yes, the meeting is over.” Zhou Tianhao laughed. He seemed a lot more relaxed than he had been two days ago when he first received the news.

“Is there a plan?” Recognizing the change in Zhou Tianhao, Qin Lang asked.

“There are indeed a number of strategies in place. As you know, I was involved in the attempt to catch the Star Hunter in Bai Lu Mountain City.” Zhou Tianhao scratched his head, “Although we failed, I have gained a lot of experience and everyone has put together more comprehensive plans this time.”

“If that guy shows up, I’ll definitely catch him!” Zhou Tianhao vigorously waved his hand, with an excited look on his face.

“More importantly, a big shot will be coming here in a few days.”
