Landed Xumi: There is no problem with my numbers!

As long as she knows the recipe and has the ingredients on hand, she can successfully replicate most of the extremely difficult dishes that cannot be made without years of hard practice. Even I find it incredible.

That’s why I knew from the beginning that this traveler would be among the finalists.”

Although it is not very conspicuous, the traveler actually has a magical culinary talent that can satisfy everyone like the law of cause and effect.

Lin Feng felt that if she didn't have a white-haired ball around her that would cause the food to be consumed at the speed of light, this guy could make a fortune in Teyvat by opening a restaurant.

Noticing that Nashida also agreed with his conclusion after observation, Lin Feng thought of Mona and Cole who also passed the preliminary round, and then added:

".Although there is no need to worry about her level, with the increasing difficulty of promotion, her companions who are competing with her are likely to fail.

After all, there are only ten finalists, and after combining the scores of all the judges, I don’t think non-professional chefs have a chance to participate in the final round.”

"——But that contestant wearing glasses over there seems to be very confident as well."

Nashida pointed at an astrologer who was wearing green-framed glasses and was careful even when cooking, and felt that the stove over there had a unique cooking style.

"You mean Mona? But I remember her cooking skills were just okay, how could she have attracted your attention?"

After hearing Nashida's reminder, Lin Feng looked at Mona's stove with some curiosity.

When he heard the other person's mumbling through his extraordinary perception ability,

For a moment, everyone fell into silence because of this unprecedented cooking method:

——It turns out that this state of high inspiration is helpful for cooking?

And the blessing of the grass element shouldn't be used to help you make salad, right?

At the same time, on the field.

".Well, according to my intuition, this cabbage is of the best quality, and the dishes made with it will definitely not be bad."

"Well, I think it's time to add some of this ingredient. It will definitely taste good."

"Hey! Got it! My intuition tells me that this combination must be delicious, let's try it first!"

"."

Because of the previous accident, Mona is now in a highly spiritually active state.

She didn't have much confidence in her cooking skills, so she simply chose this cooking method that relied entirely on intuition.

For a moment, if the stove styles of other contestants were relatively normal, then hers was more like some kind of magical alchemical ritual, or a witch in a fairy tale throwing ingredients into a cauldron rather than cooking.

Lin Feng: "."

Well, it seems that a higher level of inspiration is not necessarily a bad thing. Apart from its extremely negative effects, its positive effects are actually quite strong as well.

Although Mona cooks based on her intuition, as a chef she cannot predict what the final product will look like.

But through the coordination of the ingredients in that dish, Lin Feng was able to judge that this would most likely be a very outstanding work.

".Well, Nashida, you are right, this is indeed a very special cooking method.

If the current situation is not purely accidental, there might be a chance to open up a whole new genre in traditional food preparation."

Even a genius like Mona cannot maintain such a strong intuition forever, and it will gradually fade away over time.

But Lin Feng felt that using divination to assist in cooking did seem to be somewhat feasible if one did not mind having to learn astrology for more than ten years first.

".Xiangling, Mona, and Traveler. These three are likely to enter the finals.

I wonder what surprises the remaining seven contestants from so many countries will bring.”

I have seen completely different cooking styles from these three people.

Lin Feng, who originally viewed this event as a Guoba awakening ceremony, suddenly began to look forward to the final round.

"Come to think of it, I remember that the reward was one of the important reasons why so many players signed up this time, right?"

"Since the finals are in two days, have you thought about what kind of blessings you want to give to the contestants?"

I watched the contestants' cooking and the judges' scoring away from the crowd.

Recalling the promised blessing from the gods, Nashida was also curious about what the process would be like.

".Well, although we originally planned to announce it on the last day, since you asked..."

As the initiator of this event, Lin Feng would naturally not forget such an important thing.

Seeing Nashida's curious expression, he smiled and said as if he had solved a mystery:

"——On the last day, the contestants' dishes will be sent to two places at the same time.

One portion will be scored by normal judges, and the other portion will be offered on the prepared altar and tasted by several of our gods in Liyue."

"——Except for the old man who needs to rate twice, we will all bless the contestants we like based on our own preferences and judgment.

If we follow Liyue’s statement, it probably depends on whether the contestant has “immortal fate”.”

After a brief pause, he looked at Nashida who was clearly interested.

Lin Feng, who had already planned this, also told the invitation after his original plan:

"——How about it? Do you want to try it together?

If you are included, there will probably be five blessings issued in this event, which is probably a very rare situation in the whole of Teyvat."

Although in terms of results, the blessings they bestowed would only be similar to those of Diona that were not biased towards combat.

But no matter what, if five people received blessings from different gods at the same time, it would be a grand event that would only be seen once in hundreds of years.

Chapter 314 Everything is ready, just waiting for the right time

The semi-finals ended the next day.

Nashida, who came to Liyue to experience the differences between different countries, accepted Lin Feng's invitation without a doubt and will serve as one of the special referees to send blessings to the players tomorrow.

Even though the contestants didn't know that their works would be tasted by five gods at the same time,

But because tomorrow is the final, the ten chefs who have emerged from a large number of participants will inevitably be a little nervous.

At least that's the theory.

The lower level of Feiyunpo, the food exhibition area next to Yunlai Sea.

“——Free tasting at Wanmintang branch! Everyone is welcome to try my dishes and give suggestions.

Good or bad, it doesn't matter. Don't worry that I will be angry. Feel free to give your own opinions. If they are inspiring, you can also get coupons for Wanmintang dishes! "

"."

In the bustling food exhibition area,

A blue-haired girl with two braided pigtails and neat clothes was greeting customers warmly while collecting feedback from the public about her dishes.

Even though she will be participating in the finals of this food conference tomorrow, Xiangling not only does not look nervous at all, but compared to most chefs who stay at home pondering, she is also obviously more confident in her own special method of obtaining ingredients.

——In fact, it’s not that Xiangling didn’t want to prepare. The main reason was that the theme of the finals was not announced in advance, and not even a hint of it was revealed.

After staying at home for a while, she had no idea what to do. She thought that since she had nothing to do anyway, she might as well use the free food she applied for to entertain the tourists from various countries.

This will not only showcase the charm of Liyue's new-style cuisine, but also help advertise its own Wanmin Hall, and perhaps also gain some special inspiration, which can be regarded as a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

".Well, there are many new and novel dishes, and the food from other countries also looks very attractive.

It’s a pity that the time is too short, otherwise I would like to develop some creative food.”

As a new-style food maker different from Licai and Yuecai, Xiangling, who has always advocated innovation, is actually very supportive of this food conference.

She also believes that only by bringing together the food and cuisines of different countries to collide and compete, can the most vibrant dishes be born.

Therefore, in the previous competition, even in the preliminary stage, she attached great importance to every link of the competition, striving to be perfect without any regrets, which made her quite popular with a special guest referee.

But the only thing that made her feel strange during the competition was that the master who used to be at Yujingtai all year round had not been seen in the past few days. As a result, she wanted to go and see him after finishing two competitions, but she didn't see him.

".Speaking of which, since Mr. Zhongli became the referee, I haven't seen him in Wanmin Hall for several days. I can't even find anyone to give advice to."

".Is it because, as the rumor goes, I tried too many 'creative dishes' in the competition?"

Although she is not a judge herself, Xiangling, as a contestant, has also heard of some widely circulated "creative dishes".

Although she only knew the names of some of the works, she had also heard the rumor that "Mr. Zhongli seemed to have bad luck and always met abstract contestants."

“.Speaking of which, what are the dishes like “Raspberry Spicy Tofu”, “Pizza-stuffed Dumplings”, and “Puff Meat Buns”?

Is it because of them that Mr. Zhongli has a poor appetite recently?"

Xiangling, who considers herself a half-creative chef because she often makes some "creative dishes", is quite interested in these dishes that seem to combine characteristics of many countries and are only known by name but not seen.

"Lalu~"

"Hmm? Guoba, did you find anything?"

I stopped imagining the taste of the dishes and heard the voice of my friend next to me.

Xiangling, who had just finished entertaining a group of guests who came to taste the food and was recording their opinions, turned her head with some confusion and looked into the distance following the instructions of Guoba beside her:

!!!

"Eh?! Isn't that Mr. Lin Feng?

Beside him are the Traveler and Paimon?"

I'm having a headache because there are no professional gourmets to give me suggestions on my dishes.

When Xiangling saw the "supplier" who often provided her with food and the two big customers of her own Wanmin Hall, the surprise on her face was immediately beyond words.

"Huh? You said you were going to borrow Guoba for a day after the game. Isn't that a bit sudden?!"

".Although I seem to have mentioned this before, Guoba can't really help except making it easier to light a fire and giving you a little more strength, right?"

After tasting the dishes, I found a few points for improvement from Lin Feng's comments that I had never noticed.

Xiangling had been unable to resist the urge to improve the dishes on the spot, but she stopped what she was doing when she heard this unexpected request, with a puzzled look on her face:

——When Guoba helped in Wanmin Hall, he could only occasionally help move things or light the fire.

Normally, I even remember the wrong guests when serving the dishes. Is there something special about this partner of mine?

"."

"That seems to be the case. Guoba probably can't help you with anything, right?

You didn't borrow the rice crust because you were going on a picnic and needed it to help light the fire, did you? "

Because they met by chance on the road, Paimon and Ying, who came along together, were also curious after hearing this special request.

???

"Hmm? Paimon how did you know my plan?"

"If you look at the results alone, I do need Guoba's help at a 'picnic'. I didn't expect that your intuition, Paimon, is so sharp."

Lin Feng was somewhat surprised to find that the white-haired boy beside him had guessed almost the answer as soon as he opened his mouth, and he stated his reasons.

Xiangling: “.”

Was he really called to light a fire? This was the first time he encountered such a thing.

".What do you think of Guoba?"

Xiangling looked at her companions.

"Lalu~"

Guoba waved his hand, then happily circled around Lin Feng.

"Eh? Guoba seems to be very happy too. Is it because I haven't taken it out for a while, so it feels a little bored?"

Xiang Ling found that her partner seemed to be inexplicably enthusiastic about this matter. Since she was already very familiar with Lin Feng, she had no intention of refusing and readily agreed:

". Guoba is my companion and family, I will not restrict its freedom of movement.

Since Guoba is also very interested in this matter, I would like to trouble Mr. Lin Feng to take care of Guoba for a day after the competition. "

"Haha, don't worry, I promise that I will give you a more energetic companion by then.

All in all, it's great that you're willing to let Guoba help you."

I reached out and touched the furry "red panda" below, which felt very nice.

Knowing that this guy was about to transform back into a complete demon god, Lin Feng also made a mysterious assurance to Xiang Ling in front of him.

"——Come to think of it, Ying, you should also be participating in the finals tomorrow, right?
