Chapter 1205
It wasn't just the Nie family who thought so; Elder Li also nodded secretly. It seemed the outcome was truly already determined.
Smelling that fragrance, Elder Li couldn't help but want to taste a bite.
But when he looked toward the Tang family's side, he found that Ye Changqing and his group, as well as the entire Tang family, had no reaction at all to Nie Yuan's fragrance.
Their expressions were calm, as if they were completely unaffected.
"This..."
The Tang family indeed had no feeling of being attracted at all. Although Nie Yuan's dish had a fragrance, to be honest, compared to Ye Changqing's, it was far too inferior.
Having smelled the fragrance of Ye Changqing's food for these past few days, they had long since become immune to Nie Yuan's deliciousness.
They couldn't raise any interest at all.
"It's nothing special."
"A ninth-grade spirit chef, and this is it?"
The Tang family disciples said nonchalantly. Did he think this little bit of fragrance could make them interested?
As time passed bit by bit, finally, Nie Yuan finished his creation.
It was a dish that looked very exquisite, used luxurious ingredients, and had all kinds of mountain delicacies and seafood.
However, Ye Changqing took one look and felt it was just like a hodgepodge.
"How about it, kid? If you have any self-awareness, then surrender."
Not knowing Ye Changqing's evaluation, Nie Yuan said with a proud expression.
"Let's begin."
Hearing this, Ye Changqing didn't argue with him. Such a hodgepodge of a dish couldn't pique his interest at all.
He only thought about pursuing the richness and luxury of the ingredients, but he had forgotten the most basic things about cooking.
Just as the two were about to bring out their delicacies for Elder Li to taste.
Five figures suddenly appeared in the courtyard. Looking closely, everyone present was stunned, and then they all stepped forward respectfully.
"Greetings, seniors."
The people who arrived were none other than Li Zhengqing and his group.
They had hurried all the way and finally arrived at the Tang family. Facing everyone's respect, Li Zhengqing looked around curiously and asked in confusion.
"What are you all doing..."
"Replying to the seniors, today is the day of the culinary competition between the Tang family and the Nie family. Both sides have just finished their preparations."
Facing Li Zhengqing's inquiry, Elder Li replied hurriedly.
Don't look at him as an elder of the Spirit Chef Alliance; in front of Li Zhengqing and the others, he still didn't dare to be the least bit presumptuous.
After all, the Central Continent was still the world of the Holy Lands. In front of the Holy Lands, all other forces had to bow their heads.
Hearing Elder Li's words, Li Zhengqing looked at Ye Changqing curiously.
Seeing this, Elder Li said hurriedly.
"This young friend is the one representing the Tang family in the battle."
"Oh? And the judges for this time?"
"That would be me."
"Then why don't we join in?"
Not expecting to be able to taste Ye Changqing's delicious food as soon as they arrived, Li Zhengqing and the five of them decided without hesitation to act as judges for once.
It was mainly for that bite of food.
Facing Li Zhengqing's words, everyone naturally didn't dare to refuse. Moreover, with the status of Li Zhengqing and the five, acting as judges was more than enough.
Nie Yuan and Ye Changqing both expressed that there was no problem, and Elder Li did the same.
Now, there were six more judges.
They tasted Nie Yuan's delicacy first. Li Zhengqing and the others looked at the hodgepodge that looked decent enough.
There were no special changes in their expressions. Regarding this, Nie Yuan secretly sighed.
As expected of Holy Land elders, they were knowledgeable and could remain calm even when facing delicious food.
Little did he know, Li Zhengqing and the five were truly not interested in Nie Yuan's food; they were looking forward to Ye Changqing's skills.
However, since they were judges, they naturally had to eat it.
The five of them each took a chopstick-full and tasted it.
It couldn't be said to be bad, but it definitely didn't reach the level that would make the five of them excited; it could only be said to be standard.
Elder Li also ate it. In his view, the taste was indeed not bad and had completely reached the level of a ninth-grade spirit chef.
But since Li Zhengqing and the five didn't speak, he naturally didn't dare to speak first.
Under the silence of the few, the tasting of Nie Yuan's food was completed, and it was Ye Changqing's turn.
And at this moment, Nie Yuan looked at Ye Changqing with confidence. He didn't believe that this kid could compare with him.
Under his gaze, Ye Changqing opened the pot lid unhurriedly. In an instant, an extreme fragrance rushed toward them.
Under the spread of this fragrance, everyone present couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
"This is the taste."
"That's right, it's it. It's so fragrant."
"Why does Young Master Ye's dish this time feel even more fragrant than before?"
When the Tang family members smelled this fragrance, they couldn't hold back instantly.
Then it was the Nie family's turn. Smelling this rich fragrance, all the Nie family disciples had their expressions change.
Why did this feel even more fragrant than what their family head made?
Even Nie Yuan's expression sank. He couldn't believe that Ye Changqing had such skills.
But at this time, he naturally couldn't admit that Ye Changqing was stronger than him, so he bit the bullet and snorted coldly.
"Hmph, I'm afraid it's just a facade, empty with fragrance, but actually not very good."
He refused to admit that Ye Changqing could possibly win, while Li Zhengqing and the five were already unable to sit still.
It was so fragrant. Ever since they returned to the Central Continent, heaven knows how many times they had fantasized about such a fragrance. Now, they had finally gotten their wish.
Moreover, their luck was good; they could taste Ye Changqing's skills as soon as they arrived. This was called being favored by the Dao.
"Come, come, come, bring it up quickly."
Li Zhengqing couldn't help but urge them. Finally, Tang Qingqing endured swallowing her saliva all the way and placed a plate of Braised Lion's Head in front of Li Zhengqing and the others.
Looking at the plump and tempting Braised Lion's Head in front of them, Li Zhengqing and the five swallowed their saliva ungracefully, and then they couldn't wait to eat.
Unlike Nie Yuan's small-bite tasting, when eating Ye Changqing's food, Li Zhengqing and the others were truly wolfing it down.
Even Elder Li, after eating a chopstick-full, had his eyes wide open. This taste...
But when he wanted to continue eating, he was directly scolded by Li Zhengqing.
"Just tasting the flavor is enough. What else do you want?"
Huh???
Watching Li Zhengqing and the five with their mouths full of grease, while he could only taste the flavor, Elder Li instantly became resentful. ===== CHAPTER 1206 =====
