Chapter 288: Newcomer, Did You Think That You Could Ascend to the Sky? (2/2)

”There was delicious food here? What the f*ck! You bastard! Why didn't any of you call us over?”

”F*ck! What do you mean? Everything is gone?”

”What the f*ck? Did all of you go crazy? Why did you guys eat a dish made up of ordinary ingredients with such relish? Are all of you planning to die on the battlefield?”

....

The soldiers in the camp started arguing and chatting with each other. The soldiers who ate Bu Fang's dish were unwilling to be outdone as they discovered an astonishing fact. After consuming Bu Fang's Mapo Tofu, their breaths became stable and steady. Their body seemed to possess boundless strength, and even the speed of the True Energy revolving within their bodies became faster.

As for the condition of their bodies... It had unexpectedly reached their best state! It was as if they ate spirit energy dishes rather than ordinary food.

It was truly unfathomable!

The soldiers who had just finished licking the bottom of their bowls looked at Bu Fang with a glistering and passionate gaze.

”He's able to use ordinary ingredients to make such a delicacy. It was even able to improve the condition of our bodies…”

When did such an impressive chef appear in the army's kitchen?

As Wei Dafu clenched his teeth, the surrounding cooks also furrowed their brows as they stared at Bu Fang. The newcomer's dish attracted all of the soldiers' attention and no one was interested in the dishes the other chefs made. Even for those who were already eating, they were not thinking about the food at all. It seemed as though their mind was preoccupied with other thoughts.

The appearance of the soldiers who were eating dishes from other chefs showed a great deal of disrespect. After all, all of the dishes were prepared meticulously by other chefs. This caused much unhappiness among all the other chefs.

”What are all of you doing? Are you guys eating or fighting on the battlefield? Am I too lenient and tolerant toward everyone?”

The commander Zhu Yue wore a serious face as he placed his hands behind his back. He slowly made his way toward the crowd. He furrowed his brows and looked at the soldiers who were arguing as though they were in a market. He was dissatisfied with their performance and scolded all of them.

After they were scolded by the commander, all of the soldiers who were causing a ruckus immediately became obedient and quiet. They went over to choose other spirit energy dishes to eat.

It was the same for the soldiers who ate the Mapo Tofu. As there were only a few pieces of Mapo Tofu, they only had the opportunity to grab a taste of it. It was impossible for them to eat to their heart's content.

When those soldiers ate other spirit energy dishes, their complexion became ugly. They felt as though they were eating tasteless dried food.

”Pah! What the hell is this thing? It's horrible!”

”Is this food made to feed pigs? It's too gross... Not to mention the fact that the spice in this dish makes it no different from plain water!”

”Why are the skills of the current cooks so bad? The dishes they make are becoming more and more horrible!”

After eating a mouthful of the other spiritual dishes, the soldiers who ate the Mapo Tofu couldn't help but complain. Although their voices weren't loud, their words were heard clearly by the other army cooks.

Wei Dafu was angered to the point that his face became distorted.

Their repayment for the dishes which they meticulously prepared was ”what the hell is this thing”? What happened to their taste buds? Was it because they ate a bowl of that Mapo Tofu?

It wasn't only Wei Dafu who had a disgusted expression on his face. The other cooks also had the same reaction. After thinking about the possible reasons, they simultaneously looked toward Bu Fang with a hostile gaze.

Facing their gazes, Bu Fang wasn't flurried at all, neither did he care about their vicious gazes.

”Is it my fault that the dishes I made turned out to be delicious? Why are all of you blaming me?”

”Why you don't want to eat it? If all of you are not interested in eating, hurry up and pack up! Get ready to move out!” Zhu Yue took a bowl of food, swept his gaze over the soldiers whose face was full of resentment and said in a cold voice.

After the commander expressed his dissatisfaction, no matter how unwilling the soldiers were, they obediently ate their food. After all, people were like iron on the battlefield. The food they ate was like the steel they were made from. If they didn't eat their fill, they would definitely end up dead on the battlefield.

Wei Dafu's chest was heaving up and down, and the surrounding cooks seemed as though their skins were trembling. All of them made their way toward Bu Fang.

Those who approached Bu Fang were old and experienced army cooks. They were all resentful of Bu Fang due to the humiliation they had just suffered.

They completely surrounded him to form an invisible pressure around him. They wanted to force him to lower his head so that he could show his respects toward his seniors.

He was just a trivial newcomer. Was he thinking of ascending to the sky?
