Bring some Bankai ingredients to Shokugeki

After finding Mansam's contact information, Xu Kangping dialed the number.

Mansam's voice soon came from the other end of the phone.

Xu Kangping briefly explained his desire to learn the ethics of eating and his request for Mansam's help.

Mansam agreed to this very straightforwardly.

IGO has a long-term and stable cooperative relationship with Shilin Temple.

Therefore, it was not difficult to recommend Xu Kangping to enter Shilin Temple to practice food ethics.

Of course, Xu Kangping could only enter the Shilin Temple branch.

Xu Kangping didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

Although IGO has a huge influence in the human world.

However, the relationship between them and Shilin Temple is only a cooperative one, not a subordinate relationship.

Master Zhen Zhenzhen of the Shilin Temple headquarters is one of only four "National Treasures of Gourmet Food" in the food industry, and his status is extremely respected.

A Lu was able to directly enter the Shikurinji headquarters to practice because he was the adopted son of IGO President Yilong.

For most people who study food ethics at Shilin Temple, entering the Shilin Temple headquarters requires going through a strict and difficult process.

First, one must stand out among the widely distributed branches of Shilin Temple.

Only by winning the recognition and recommendation of the branch manager with outstanding practice results and a deep understanding of the meaning of food can you have the opportunity to step into the headquarters.

Xu Kangping was not planning to go to the Shilin Temple headquarters.

He doesn't have that much time.

Fortunately, Xu Kangping still knows a lot about food ethics.

Although the instructors who teach Shiyi in the branch may not be as experienced and accomplished as the masters at the headquarters.

But I can definitely help him fill in some details about the practice of eating etiquette.

Moreover, compared to the mentors of the branch school, Xu Kangping actually cares most about the various ingredients in Shilin Temple that are used to assist in the practice of food ethics.

These ingredients are specially made by Shilin Temple and are difficult for outsiders to access.

Xu Kangping believed that as long as he had enough auxiliary ingredients for practice, he was fully capable of tailoring an effective practice plan for himself.

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

When he arrived at the Shilin Temple branch, Xu Kangping entered without any test.

In the branch, there are a large number of students practicing the righteousness of food.

Xu Kangping didn't care too much about these people. After all, they were basically food criminals.

On the first day of practice, the morning light was just breaking, and the soft sunlight shone on the roof of the Shilin Temple branch.

Xu Kangping arrived at the designated location early to prepare for morning class - food meditation.

What is in front of us is the pine needle grass that was specially cultivated and transformed by Shilin Temple.

This grass looks very ordinary, but it is the most basic and most commonly used material for practicing the meaning of food.

The pine torch and thorn grass can burn continuously for more than 100 hours, but in order to ignite it, the practitioner needs to be grateful for the food.

And once any other thoughts other than gratitude arise in your heart, the flame will immediately be extinguished.

Practitioners need to let the pine torch and thorn grass burn for 30 minutes before they can be considered to have started to learn the meaning of food.

It takes an average person several months or even a year to complete this step.

But Xu Kangping didn't have that much time, so he secretly decided to meet this requirement within three days.

When the meditation began, Xu Kangping took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and tried to calm his heart.

At first, all kinds of thoughts kept jumping around in my mind.

The more you try to eliminate distracting thoughts, the more they appear.

The flame of the torch flickered and burned for only about a minute before it went out.

But Xu Kangping was not discouraged and tried again and again.

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

After more than a dozen attempts, Xu Kangping gradually eliminated the distracting thoughts in his mind.

The gratitude for the ingredients and the food becomes stronger.

This time, the flame of the torch burned steadily, and as time passed, it burned for a full 6 minutes.

The melodious bell rang, and the morning class ended.

The originally calm lake of my heart suddenly began to ripple.

The flame of the pine torch and the thorn bush went out.

Xu Kangping slowly opened his eyes, feeling a little regretful. He should have been able to hold on longer this time.

Fortunately, he has gained a lot this time.

Come to the cafeteria.

The instructors of the Shilin Temple branch have prepared rice made from eggs for the students.

Each grain of egg rice contains a tiny egg.

However, it is not an easy task to turn egg rice into a delicious delicacy.

Egg rice is a very delicate ingredient. The eggshell is extremely thin and brittle and will break with a little force.

Therefore, if you want to cook egg rice, you can only carefully pick up the grains one by one with chopsticks.

It really tests one's patience and control over strength.

Of course, since the instructors at the Shilin Temple branch had already prepared the egg rice, they didn’t need to prepare the ingredients.

But Xu Kangping was not very satisfied with this.

After all, he came here to learn the etiquette of food. Rather than sitting back and enjoying the fruits of others' labor, Xu Kangping would rather do it himself.

Naturally, the mentor of Shilin Temple would not refuse this.

Unlike those gourmet criminals who entered Shilin Temple because of their crimes, Xu Kangping was recommended by Mansam, the third-ranked figure in IGO.

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

After getting permission, Xu Kangping took the chopsticks and began to carefully pick up the uncooked egg rice.

However, this is not easy.

Xu Kangping tried many times, but each time he used too much force, the eggshell broke and the egg liquid leaked out.

Repeated failures did not discourage Xu Kangping.

Take a deep breath, concentrate again, and adjust the strength of your hands.

After some effort, he finally succeeded in picking up the first grain of egg rice.

Just like that, one, two, three...

As time went by, Xu Kangping gradually became more proficient in controlling his strength.

But in the end, I only got half a bowl of egg rice.

It’s not that Xu Kangping didn’t want to continue, but breakfast time was almost over.

Xu Kangping had no choice but to stop and cook half a bowl of egg rice.

Although he relies on his telekinesis ability, Xu Kang doesn't have much demand for food on a normal day.

However, half a bowl of egg rice was still too little for Xu Kangping.

However, Xu Kangping had no intention of using his own food to satisfy his hunger.

In order to practice the ethics of eating, he must be strict with himself.

The feeling of hunger actually made him take the next training more seriously.

After breakfast, it was time to learn and correct the etiquette of Thanksgiving.

Xu Kangping was brought to the Gratitude Cactus.

Standing in front of the Gratitude Cactus, the instructor from Silin Temple demonstrated a salute with hands clasped together.

Thankfully, the cactus didn't react in any unusual way.

Xu Kangping looked at the Gratitude Cactus and naturally knew its function.

I tried to put my hands together, but then the Gratitude Cactus shot out a large number of spikes.

Xu Kangping tried for a long time, but the results were not very good.

This made Xu Kangping very helpless.
