[Additional Chapter for Guild Master Enchanting Night Traces]
“Qin Lang, what do you think the challenge Mr. Zong Nian gave you will be?”
After Mr. Zong Nian left with Qin Lang’s Spirit Chef Badge, Zhao Wenchang couldn’t help but sit next to Qin Lang and quietly start a conversation.
“I’m not sure about the answer to this question either,” Qin Lang responded with a shake of his head.
A trial that varies from person to person…
This feeling aligns with the toughest second-level food recomnder test in Tianhua State.
The question now is…
After Mr. Zong Nian has reviewed his past situations, would the test beco more complex, or would it be simplified?
Qin Lang was well aware of himself, his past achievents registered with the Spirit Chef Association were astonishing, compared to most spirit chefs.
It was due to speed.
From getting registered as a Spirit Chef, to obtaining three First-Level Food Recomnder Badges for participating in the city-level cooking competition, to winning the city-level cooking contest and getting his first Second-Level Food Recomnder Badge, and eventually obtaining the second Second-Level Food Recomnder Badge.
This entire process took him only just over a month.
Would Mr. Zong Nian, upon seeing such an impressive track record, be stimulated to make the test more challenging, or deemphasize the difficulty of the test to make it easier for him to pass?
Qin Lang was leaning towards the forr.
Soon, footsteps approached from afar.
Mr. Zong Nian, who had finished examining Qin Lang’s circumstances, had returned.
“A truly astonishing past,” Mr. Zong Nian remarked as he handed Qin Lang’s Spirit Chef Badge back to him, his expression as calm as ever.
However, when he first saw Qin Lang’s past, it wasn’t as easy for him to hide his initial reaction.
“Thank you for your recognition,” Qin Lang took the Spirit Chef Badge and nervously questioned, “Mr. Zong Nian, what will my test be?”
“In Qingyang City, there are eleven First-Level Food Recomnders,” Zong Nian dodged the question and instead ntioned the situation of the Food Recomnders in Qingyang City.
Qin Lang listened attentively.
Generally, the number of Food Recomnders in a city is fixed.
There is only one second-level food recomnder, and eleven first-level food recomnders.
This is the case in both Dongxia City and Qingyang City.
“And your test is…” Zong Nian calmly spoke, “to et the requirents of three of the First-Level Food Recomnders with just one dish and to satisfy .”
“Hiss…”
Zhao Wenchang couldn’t help but draw a breath of cold air.
He was taken aback just by hearing the requirents of this test.
Would Qin Lang be able to pass such a test?
He couldn’t help but turn and glance at Qin Lang, who was frowning.
Qin Lang was also surprised by such a test.
To et the challenge of three first-level food recomnders shouldn’t be a difficult feat.
However, if “with just one dish” is added as a prerequisite, then the problem becos quite significant.
This ans that the dish needs to et the challenging requirents of three First-Level Food Recomnders simultaneously.
Yet the strengths and testing directions of the sa-level food recomnders from the sa city are completely different.
For instance, when in Dongxia City, Zhou Qing challenged fish cuisine, Fu Hang challenged beef dishes, and Song Hui challenged the rather niche field of desserts.
There are also food recomnders who challenge poultry, sauces and other types of dishes.
In short, there is never an overlap between the testing directions of any two food recomnders.
While Qin Lang hasn’t had ti to understand the situation here in Qingyang City, it’s likely to be the sa.
So, using a single dish to simultaneously et three different testing directions presents a huge challenge for selecting the dish and may even require so compromise.
This is where another difficulty lies.
Compromising often ans one can’t exhibit one’s best culinary skills.
Yet this dish not only needs to et the test requirents of three First-Level Food Recomnders, but also has to satisfy Mr. Zong Nian, who is a Second-Level Food Recomnder.
Qin Lang took a deep breath, feeling the true difficulty of the toughest Second-Level Food Recomnder test.
The only chance of breaking this test lies with the three First-Level Food Recomnders not making specifications.
If he can choose any three of the eleven First-Level Food Recomnders, then he could flexibly choose them based on the dish he prepares, which would increase the possibility of passing the test.
However, just as Qin Lang thought of this, Mr. Zong Nian’s next comnt doused Qin Lang in a bucket of cold reality.
“Besides, there’s one more requirent: Jiang Zhan must be one of the three Food Recomnders.”
Jiang Zhan? Who is that?
Qin Lang hadn’t researched the First-Level Food Recomnders of Qingyang City, so this na was unfamiliar to him.
Undoubtedly, fixing one of the Food Recomnders ans one direction has been fixed.
Again, the flexibility of the test decreases.
And the difficulty increases.
Qin Lang took a deep breath, “Mr. Zong Nian, may 1 return ho first to prepare for the test?”
The content of Mr. Zong Nian’s test was truly unexpected. He hadn’t prepared for this. He wasn’t even aware who the First-Level Food Recomnders in Qingyang City were. He had no choice but to take leave first and get prepared before his next visit.
“Yes, you can,” Mr. Zong Nian calmly nodded, “But you only have one week. Any longer and it will be considered as a test failure.”
“If you fail the test for a Second-Level Food Recomnder, you won’t be able to try again for three months.”
One week…
This preparation ti was not particularly generous.
“Thank you, Mr. Zong Nian. I’ll take my leave now.” With a polite bow in his direction, Qin Lang headed towards the exit of the mansion.
Only after he left the mansion did Zhao Wenchang, who had been trailing him, speak up in a muffled voice.
“Isn’t the difficulty level too high? Qin Lang, why don’t we just give up?”
“There are twelve cities in Tianhua State, and you already have collected two Second-Level Food Recomnder Badges. It definitely won’t be hard for you to find a way to get three more!”
“No, I want to try.” Qin Lang’s eyes flickered with determination, “Mr. Zong Nian’s challenge is indeed difficult, even more so than 1 imagined. But if 1 don’t even have the courage to attempt it, how can 1 ever improve my culinary skills in the future?”
“Gulp!”
We will do our best together!
“Click!”
It’s just a Second-Level Food Recomnder Test, we will definitely get through it!
Both Food Spirits were equally confident in Qin Lang.
Qin Lang smiled as he clung to the two small spirits.
There was sothing he didn’t ntion.
Though challenging, the difficulty of Mr. Zong Nian’s test was still lower than that of the Third-Level Food Recomnder’s test.
If he backed down now, how would he face the Third-Level Food Recomnder’s test in the future?
If he didn’t undertake the Third-Level Food Recomnder’s test, how would he enter a higher regional level competition than the provincial one and explore the fascinating Star System?
“By the way.” Qin Lang turned to Zhao Wenchang, “What exactly does that Food Recomnder nad Jiang Zhan test?”
Since Mr. Zong Nian specifically ntioned him, it couldn’t be that simple.
“Mr. Jiang Zhan specializes in testing mutton dishes,” Zhao Wenchang scratched his head, “I don’t know why Mr. Zong Nian specifically appointed him. Could it be because Mr. Zong Nian knows that you’re good at cooking mutton, so he is trying to decrease the difficulty a little?”
“No…” Qin Lang looked a bit strange, “It may be just the opposite.”
In his past record, not a single dish he cooked involved mutton.
