651 The Competition Has Entered the Metaphysical Field (2/2)
”That was fast!”
After Wang Lu's instruction, Aya seemed to have been awakened and quickly completed the
tasting of all kinds of delicacies in a completely incomprehensible way. It was as fast and as
accurate as the Food Immortal. Any food only needed to be touched by the tip of the tongue and
the pros and cons of the food became clear and plain. The Food Immortal cast a glance at it
and immediately became dazed.
Because it was totally unreasonable! She did touch them with her tongue, but it was in the
wrong place! For example, just now that Fire Turtle dish, whose flavor essence was at the
bottom tip of the center. Once they tasted that point, they could have a comprehensive
understanding of the whole dish. However, what Aya tasted was in its opposite direction!
And then she gave the right answer: A negligible seasoning was deliberately misplaced during
the seasoning.
Someone cheated!
This was the first reaction of the Food Immortal because such a scene was beyond his
understanding… Of course, instead of using the opposite direction, he could see the problem
without even using his tongue, but he was the Food Immortal, what of Aya then?
Nevertheless, the cheating accusation did not come out because he was the Food Immortal.
Not only he was the number one foodie in the world, but his cultivation base was also
world-shaking. From the beginning until the end, he could not see where the two people could
have cheated at and thus could not open his mouth to criticize them.
However, a moment later, a more horrific scene appeared.
In order to make up for the nearly ten points gap in the previous period, Aya began to speed up
her food tasting. She reached out with chopsticks and picked up a fried eggplant, and then…
shook it in front of her mouth and before her tongue could reach out to taste it, she threw it
aside and eagerly said the answer, ”The oil used is wrong!”
Wang Lu immediately nodded. ”A score for Aya.”
The Food Immortal slapped the table and stood up in anger.
However, the moment he stood up, he suddenly found something.
Aya's concentration was extraordinary.
Although her action seemed a bit hasty, but from the beginning until the end, the girl's eyes
shone, her breathing was steady, and her focused stance was similar to as if she was facing an
opponent worthy of her vigorous effort.
If this was cheating, her acting skill was a bit too realistic. However, after all, the Dao of good
food ultimately needed skill and experience, so how could she possibly do it just by relying on
concentration alone? Except...
Suddenly, the Earth Immortal thought of a possibility.
Could it be that she was just guessing?
A talented warrior could see the future direction of the fight from the complex environment in
battle, almost as if it was a foreknowledge. And Aya's posture at this time was more like a
warrior than a foodie!
Thus, she could tell a good dish from a bad one without using her tongue? In theory, it seemed
to make sense, but, was there really such a thing?
While he was still in shocked, the Food Immortal found out that the gap between him and the
other side was only five points.
Ah well, now is not the time to pay attention to the other side. Since she has the ability to
compete with me, then… I need to be a bit more serious.
When the Food Immortal got serious, his food tasting speed was incredibly fast, which
immediately threw off Aya again.
Soon, the first batch of thirty dishes in front of the Food Immortal had already been tasted by
him. At this time, from the nearby kitchen, a dozen chefs brought out thirty new dishes. Food
Immortal smoothly identified the flaws of the first fifteen dishes. However, when it came to the
sixteenth dish, sliced fish with vinegar, Wang Lu shook his head. ”Unfortunately, you could not
score a point.”
The Food Immortal was stunned, could not score?
According to the rules, there were many flaws in a dish. If one could not mention all the flaws,
one would not get the score. This meant that the Food Immortal had yet to find all the flaws.
Was it because after tasting more than forty dishes in succession, his taste bud became numb?
Or...
Did the difficulty begin to imperceptibly rise?
As the Food Immortal, the resilience of his Earth Immortal's body was far from that of a normal
human being. Even the most stimulating dishes could not numb his foodie's tongue. The only
problem was that the difficulty had been raised, and it was no longer possible to identify the
flaws easily.
Thereupon, the Food Immortal immediately picked another piece of fish and tasted it. Suddenly,
there was something else in his heart.
In terms of taste, he did not intend to change his own answer. But, outside the taste...
”The chef who cooked this dish was in a gloomy mood and thus contaminated the dish with it.”
Wang Lu laughed. ”You are indeed the Food Immortal, that is indeed correct. The wife of the
chef who cooked the dish had just died a few days ago. Unfortunately, you could no longer get
the score for this dish. Please start tasting the next dish.”
The Food Immortal nodded and then sighed internally.
My goodness, this foodie's challenge was indeed interesting. The difficulty kept increasing and
gradually entered an unthinkable situation. After tasting more than forty dishes, he was asked to
guess the psychological health of the chef! If this thing continued, when it came to the four
hundredth dish, would it involve the failure of the eighteenth generation ancestor of the chef?
However, the more of that happened, the more interesting the competition would be.
The Food Immortal looked at Aya on the opposite table and his competitive spirit was furiously
ignited.
