1425 Feel Free To Ask Anything (1/2)

”Is he going to take on the third test?”

”But he just took a brief rest. Why is he in such a hurry? Is he sure he can complete it? Or he just wants to give it a try?”

Luo Sanniang and Master Cheng were staring at him as well.

There was an excited look in Luo Sanniang's eyes. She could hear an unusual meaning in Bu Fang's words. 'Does he mean that he's very confident of himself and sure that he can solve the third test?'

Master Cheng, however, was contemptuous of that. ”You did complete the second test by a fluke. Why can't I say it? How could you be so arrogant when you are just a Spirit Divine Chef? I can't wait to see the look on your face after you failed! Hmph!”

After that, he flicked his sleeve and walked upstairs. Luo Sanniang followed. Both of them stood behind the railing and watched from across a distance.

No one dared to disturb Bu Fang. He was the only person who tried to solve the third test so far. Before this, no one had done it, and for a long time to come, he might be the only record bearer.

The food ingredient of the third test was a round grain of rice. It was very plump and glittering like jade, but it was very tiny. The third test was harder than the second test!

”Wow! What's that?!” exclaimed a Divine Chef.

Attracted by his voice, the people around him turned and followed his eyes. The next moment, the sound of gasps rang out here and there, while everyone was shocked and looked at the two finished products in the distance with horror.

Those were Bu Fang's work, the white radish and the tofu he had cut. With nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine cuts, the radish was carved into a dog. It looked very lifelike. Its tail seemed to wag, and one of its paws was raised as if to tear the sky apart. It did not seem to be carved out with so many cuts.

The crowd could sense the pressure coming from it and even a strange essence of Law it contained. They all rested their eyes on Bu Fang and felt incredulous. If it was not too surprising for them that Bu Fang had completed the tests and broken the record, then the objects he had carved astonished them.

While focusing on the knife technique, he was able to perfectly carve a radish into a work of art. It was a feat that impressed many Divine Chefs. But what really stunned them was the tofu, which he had made nineteen thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine cuts. Bu Fang had carved it into a peerless beauty, whose lifelike hair waved gracefully when it was placed in the water.

”This… Did he imagine the object he wanted to carve when he was making all those cuts? This level of divine sense is simply… monster-like!”

However, just as everyone's attention was focused on the carvings, someone else exclaimed. Luo Sanniang and Master Cheng both turned around, and what they saw froze their faces in an instant. They were struck dumb, while the nearby Divine Chefs all kept exclaiming.

The people who saw Bu Fang's movements were stunned by his sequence of actions. In just a few breaths, he had completed the third test. Yes, he had completed the third test!

Looking at the array, which was rumbling and crumbling, Luo Sanniang did not know whether to cry or laugh. What happened just now? Was the third test really so easy?

On the other hand, Master Cheng's face was dark, and he was very regretful. Bu Fang had completed the third test in just a few breaths. What did that mean? It meant the third test was very simple. Perhaps the first two tests were too difficult, so the third one was very easy. However, as he worried that he could not complete it, he did not take up the second test.

As a result, Bu Fang had completed it before him. Had he known that the third test was so easy, he would have chosen to solve the second test earlier!

”Dammit!” Master Cheng was extremely regretful, but it was no use crying over spilled milk.

Easy? Was it really easy? Was the third test really so easy to solve when the first two were so difficult? Perhaps only Bu Fang knew the answer.

The third test required him to carve on the rice grain with the Kitchen Knife of Affliction, and he must make nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine cuts. Also, the strength he used in each slash, as well as the gap between cuts, must be identical.

If he were to do all that on a radish, that would be acceptable. But the ingredient was a rice grain… On top of that, he had to use a huge kitchen knife to carve on it. This instantly elevated the difficulty many times.

It might seem that Bu Fang had completed the test in a few breaths, but during this short time, his mental force was extremely stressed, and his divine sense seemed to burn. To others, it was just a few breaths, but he felt as though he had spent several years to complete it. The moment he finished the carving, his divine sense was almost completely drained.
