Bring some Bankai ingredients to Shokugeki

Xu Kangping returned the spear in his hand to Wen Yejiang beside him and said at the same time.

"Okay, it's time for us to leave."

The main purpose of entering the forest this time has been achieved, so there is naturally no need to stay here any longer.

"Ah."

Bunno Takumi nodded.

Glancing in the direction the brown bear left, he still felt a little sorry for the wild boar meat that the brown bear had taken away.

He hasn't eaten much yet.

But it was a good deal for the brown bear.

But he also couldn't let Xu Kangping continue to cook.

I could only sigh helplessly.

The two began to pack their things, and after packing their luggage, they walked out of the forest.

Following the same path they came from, the two soon left the forest.

Then Xu Kangping looked at Wen Yejiang and said sincerely.

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Fumino. I'm sure the payment has already been transferred. I'll take my leave now."

This trip to the mountains gave him an idea of ​​what he would cook next.

It can be said that it was a great harvest.

"If you need anything later, please let me know."

Bunno Takumi said this enthusiastically.

Xu Kangping nodded and said nothing more.

Turn around and get on the vehicle that has been waiting here.

The vehicle sped away and returned directly to the location of the third exam.

......................................................

After returning to the examination venue, Xu Kangping tried to do it according to his inner thoughts.

The results are very good.

So while other students were still concentrating and working hard on trying to do it.

Xu Kangping began to wander around with a relaxed look.

First, we went to the surrounding snow-capped mountain ski resorts and enjoyed the thrill of skiing and skiing down the white snow trails like the wind.

Afterwards, we went to a nearby open-air hot spring hotel.

The night is shrouded in stars.

Soak comfortably in the warm hot springs and admire the vast night sky.

In addition to sightseeing, Xu Kangping did not forget to taste the nearby delicacies.

Special snacks on the streets and alleys, exquisite dishes in restaurants...

In this way, Xu Kangping finally waited until the third day in a relaxed and comfortable manner.

On this day, Lecturer Oda appeared in front of everyone along with four other lecturers from Totsuki Academy.

Lecturer Oda still had a gentle smile on his face.

Then the rules were explained again.

"This time, the judging panel will consist of five people, including me."

“Each person can give up to 20 points, for a total of 100 points.”

“Only students who score 60 or above will qualify.”

"Then let's begin cooking."

As soon as Instructor Oda finished speaking, many students immediately took action.

For a moment, there was the sound of pots and pans colliding and knives rubbing against chopping boards.

There was also the slightly nervous breathing of the students intertwined.

The entire venue was instantly filled with a tense and warm atmosphere.

At this time, Xu Kangping also began to prepare his meals.

......................................................

What Xu Kangping is going to cook is - stir-fried twice-cooked pork.

Of course, because wild boar meat is used, the recipe has been modified to some extent.

Put the wild boar belly with skin on into the pot with cold water.

At the same time, add seasonings such as scallion segments, ginger slices, mountain pepper and rice wine.

As the water temperature gradually rose, layers of foam slowly appeared in the pot.

Skim off all the foam.

Cook patiently until the pork belly is 80% cooked, then remove it from the oven, place it on a chopping board, and let it cool naturally.

After this processing, the fishy smell in the pork belly has been reduced a lot.

Next, Xu Kangping skillfully cut the cooled pork belly into slices of uniform size and thickness.

He then places the slices of meat on a special smoking rack.

Below are burning pine needles, and smoke rises in curls, which last for three minutes.

This process not only further removes the remaining fishy smell of the pork belly.

It also adds a light, heady smoky aroma to the pork belly.

Next, Xu Kangping poured oil into the red-hot iron pan.

Quickly pour the smoked pork belly slices into the pot and stir-fry quickly.

With the sound of 'crackling', the pork belly jumped happily in the pot.

At the same time, Xu Kangping added mountain pepper, schisandra chinensis, and crushed acorn pulp...

The various seasonings blend with the aroma of meat, creating a mouth-watering fragrance.

Finally, Xu Kangping skillfully rolled the fried pork belly slices into each other.

Shaped into the appearance of blooming roses.

This step is purely to make this twice-cooked pork dish more visually appealing.

The rich taste of this twice-cooked pork instantly conquered the taste buds of the five judges.

The meat is incredibly tender and melts in your mouth;

The taste is delicious and unforgettable;

The unique taste of fat but not greasy is even more irresistible.

And after Xu Kangping's careful processing, the original fishy smell of wild boar meat was completely removed.

Only the intoxicating aroma of meat remains.

In the end, Xu Kangping successfully passed the third exam with a score of 97.

Marui Zenji and Sakaki Ryoko, who were with him, also successfully passed the third exam.

But after this exam, Marui Zenji looked even weaker.

His already pale face now looked even more bloodless, as if most of his energy had been drained from him.

His steps were unsteady and his eyes revealed fatigue that was hard to conceal.

This made Xu Kangping give up the idea of ​​playing cards all night and he decided to just play until midnight.

......................................................

The students who passed the exam began to take the train to the venue of the fourth exam.

The train sped along the track, and the scenery outside the window was like a series of rapidly changing paintings.

The students had different emotions, some were nervous about the unknown exams, while others were looking forward to new challenges.

Soon, the students arrived at the location of the fourth exam.

When they learned the rules of the fourth exam, their expressions became complicated.

It turns out that the town of Akita, where the fourth exam is held, is about to host a winter hunting competition.

And these candidates need to choose a 'partner' from among the hunters who agree to cooperate with Totsuki Academy.

These candidates have to cook dishes using the prey hunted by the other party.

And the food you cook needs to be approved by the other party.

Xu Kangping found this quite interesting.

But if you want to pass it easily, it is best to choose a good 'partner'.

I don't know if other people realize it though.

However, Xu Kangping knew that most of the "hunters" participating in the winter hunting competition were actually amateurs.

Just here to join in the fun.

They themselves were not sure what kind of prey they could get.

It is even possible that no prey will be caught.

But this is not a test of luck after all.

It is impossible for Totsuki Academy to select students based on luck.

Therefore, Totsuki Academy also has a plan for this.

That is if the 'partner' chosen by the student fails to capture the prey.

Totsuki Academy will select a new 'partner' for him from the reserve hunters.

But this time, the students can only follow the arrangements of Totsuki Academy and cannot make their own choices.

This is undoubtedly an exam full of variables.
