1396 Tea and Prawn (1/2)

Unlike Ah Zhuang, who had chosen the Roc meat, Bu Fang's choice this time was… fresh prawns.

Prawns versus meat?

Many people in the surroundings fell silent. Among them, many did not know how to cook. When it came to food, there was no definite answer as to which one was better, prawns or meat. It mainly depended on the chef's skills.

However, Ah Zhuang's choice was Roc meat. Although it was only a Silver-winged Roc's meat, it was a Roc after all, and its quality was comparable to that of True Dragon meat. It was not something that a few fresh river prawns could compare with.

They could tell that the prawns chosen by Bu Fang were not ordinary. At least, in terms of quality, those were high-grade prawns that none of them had ever seen. But no matter what prawns they were, how could they compare with Roc meat?

Lord Dog was somewhat annoyed. He thought that Bu Fang should not have chosen prawns but dragon meat. 'Bu Fang boy should cook Sweet 'n' Sour Dragon Ribs and use it to crush that guy! Why did he choose prawns? How could prawns be better than Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs?! The difference between them is too huge!'

Ah Zhuang was also surprised by Bu Fang's decision. As a qualified chef, Bu Fang should know the excellent quality of Roc meat. He had thought that Bu Fang would choose Roc meat as well and had even prepared to fight him head-on with the same ingredients. But in the end, Bu Fang chose several fresh prawns.

'Is he… really that confident?! He's looking down on my cooking skills? I'm the God of Chef's Challenge after all, and this mortal can never outshine me!'

”You're digging your own grave!” Ah Zhuang said as the Roc meat hovered in midair over his palm. A look of excitement came over his face, and he grinned from ear to ear as if he had won the challenge.

He had exterminated the Nether Chef Clan, but he did not kill them without reason. Instead, he chose to do it through Chef's Challenges. Those chefs were killed by him after he had defeated them in the challenges.

Of course, some Nether Chefs knew they would be defeated, so they did not want to fight but chose to flee. But how could they escape? Ah Zhuang, naturally, did not hesitate to kill those who violated the rules of the game. That was what caused the homeland of the Nether Chef Clan to be littered with corpses.

He had killed merely a bunch of mortals, so the God of Chef's Challenge did not feel any psychological burden. He was a God, a formidable God! His heart was too strong and hard to be moved by a group of mortals!

Even so, the Cursed Goddess and Bu Fang, who possessed mysterious power, had caused a storm to rage in his heart.

This feeling made Bu Fang narrow his eyes slightly. He must be serious about this Chef's Challenge, too.

Rumble!

In the distance, Ah Zhuang's aura exploded. A huge shadow emerged behind him. It was a majestic figure looking down at the crowd, and its aura was terrible and oppressive, extremely horrible to look at!

Lord Dog's eyes focused in an instant. Looking at the shadow behind Ah Zhuang, he stuck out his tongue and said, ”So that's the God of Chef's Challenge? Interesting… He has at least two Laws. One should be the Law of Chef's Challenge, which made him a God, and the other should be a mutated Law of Fire…”

Lord Dog had comprehended the Law of Time, which was one of the strongest Laws of the Universe, so his judgment was extraordinary.

There were also levels among Gods. Take Lord Dog and Di Ting, for example. Lord Dog could easily defeat Di Ting because he was stronger than the latter, and his strength was based on the mightiness of the Law he had comprehended. At the level of Gods, their strength was decided by how many Laws they had comprehended.

Di Ting could only be considered as an ordinary low-grade God because the first Law he comprehended was an ordinary Law. As a result, the maximum number of Laws he could comprehend from a low-grade God to a mid-grade God was very few, only ranging from three to six Laws.

As for Lord Dog, who had comprehended the strongest Law of the Universe, the maximum number of Laws he could comprehend was… nine Laws.

Only when one became a God would one understand the importance of the Laws.

This so-called God of Chef's Challenge had comprehended at least two Laws. In other words, his fighting capacity was much stronger than that of Di Ting.

”Owner Bu is fighting a God of Chef's Challenge this time… Could he win?” someone among the crowd murmured, while the rest took deep breaths.

In the meantime, the Chef's Challenge had begun.

Ah Zhuang's cold laugh rang through the air as his hands blurred into motions. Streams of light shot out from them and floated around his body, turning into a kitchen knife, a stove, a wok, and many other kitchen utensils. Each of them was flashing dazzlingly, showing off their nobility of a God's utensils, and the Artifact Spirits in them were giving off formidable auras.

Bu Fang, on the other hand, wasn't outdone. The Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife, Black Turtle Constellation Wok, and Vermilion Robe were shaking, and the White Tiger Heaven Stove also appeared, letting out a tiger roar that pushed his aura to the peak.

Ah Zhuang squinted at Bu Fang. The sneer and derision did not disappear from his face.

Rumble!

A dark green flame burned and swirled around his body, dancing over his palm. Ah Zhuang threw the Roc meat shrouded in a divine aura over the palm, making it hover over the flame. The meat began to sizzle in an instant, spitting greases.

He was using the flame of Law to cook the meat, making its divine substance melt and gradually infuse with the meat. It was an advanced technique, which required very precise control over the temperature of the flame.

Even then, a golden wok began to glow, while one ingredient after another appeared in Ah Zhuang's hands. These ingredients were his own, which were vegetables still covered with glistening water droplets.
