Chapter 28 (2/2)
First level, second level? Meng Ming didn’t understand, “What do you mean?”
Carron explained the crucial point, “In other words, your ood, and you can burn anything in your hands however you want But you’ve only reached the first level Once the flames leave your hands, you lose your control”
It was hard to believe that Carron had figured this out fro had cooked earlier!
He then continued, “I said before that judging a C-type’s basic skills requires looking at how they sharpen a pencil Your foundation was using flames Thus, your first level of skills have already been mastered But if you use flaive rise to es If you want to duel in the examination, you need to at least train to the second level—you must still be able to accurately control the flames after they leave your hands”
What the old baldie is saying is very correct…Meng Ming i! —If he couldn’t control the fire properly, it would not only be bad to use, but fires too large would draw the proctors’ attentions He had to train in the concept of “appropriate ae to ask, “Then how do I practice”, but the question didn’t leave his lips
Carron told hie, so you ence, adaptability, and control over the whole situation are what give you dominance in a competition On the other hand, skills and abilities will not necessarily give you the lead It is indeed true that people with low technical skill still have a chance of winning But these kinds of skills are necessary tools That’s why you should continue practicing Make some more pot roast, and properly learn how to control the fire! This ti, and each piece will be reduced to 8mm in diameter”
Decreasing the volu really teach Meng Ming how to master the second level?
Meng Ming once again went to prepare pot roast This time, he cut the pieces smaller, and then placed theain Because they were only 8redients quickly cooked
They’re done so quickly? It’s a bit difficult to grasp the ti used the chopsticks to hold the the beef and potato pieces so that they were evenly well done was indeed not easy! Especially doing all the 8mm thin pieces in succession
He quickly finished another dish, but Meng Ming didn’t bring it out After only a single ti Qiao Yi, “Potatoes and beef! Do you still have any?!”
Meng Ming gradually becaan to get a better feeling of it He practiced it over and over without stopping! Soon, the kitchen was filled with dozens of pot roast platters The fragrant aroer in anyone that smelled it
Tian to feel somewhat tired, but his mind was abnor of the 8mm small pieces of beef and potatoes under his control!
Carron only took a single taste, before he io practice with 5mm pieces”
Because of the training just now, Meng Ming quickly mastered the 5mm chunks
“Alright, now try this” Carron picked up a pencil and paper, and drew a horizontal line on the paper before throwing the pencil back at Meng Ming
Meng Ming caught the pencil, and closed his eyes to gather his concentration, searching for the feeling he had when he was cooking Then, he suddenly snapped his eyes open, quickly ignited the pencil, and abruptly threw out a Flath was controlled extree of the paper, and the fire quickly spread, burning the surface to just barely past the boundary!
“What do you think, you can feel how redients” Carron said, “You need to train the accuracy of your fire so that it lands right onis different from your previous ones; 3, so it’s nearly impossible for the human hand to control it No chef can perfectly achieve this This is the ultie!”
“Of course that isn’t a proble re-entered the kitchen, and sliced the an the training,
As expected, just as Carron had said, the 3redients were small In less than a second, the potatoes had already becoy!
Alright, I not only have to increase the speed of my movements, I also need to control the fire’s temperature!
Meng Ming grew more and e
“Hehe, try it” Meng Ming laughed
It was the second o, so Meng Ming told Huang Qiao Yi to lift up a piece of paper with multiple horizontal lines drawn across it He picked up a line of pencils in his hand, and stood around 10 meters away from her
Meng Ming suddenly lit up one of the pencils, and fiercely threw it at his target As it brushed past the paper, it lit up the bottoh, and stopped perfectly just as the flaQiao Yi hold the middle part of the paper and said, “I’ll do the top and bottonited two more pencils, and tossed them simultaneously from his hands The two pencils touched the top and bottom sections, and the fire spread to both of the lines before stopping perfectly at the correct positions
“Alright! The Flarew more and more confident, “Little Qiao, draw a shape!”
“Is any shape ok?” Huang Qiao Yi took a new piece of paper and sketched a large spade, then held it up in the air
The paper fluttered rando watched for the perfect moment, lit up four pencils, and shot all of them out at the saly that they sent the paper flying and nailed it to the wall The four Fla Arrows then burned the paper from all four corners Gradually, the flames burned the paper accurately into a white spade!
