Chapter 435: I Am Super Strong in the Culinary Realm, and the Same in the Human Realm

When assigned to Group F, Ryoko Sakaki had originally wanted to find Megumi Tadokoro to team up.

After all, for things like cooking assessments, teaming up with someone more familiar could make things more tacit and get twice the result with half the effort.

However, after Ryoko saw Megumi Tadokoro walking toward Chuangzhen Xingping, Ryoko smiled meaningfully and decided to just find any girl with similar promotion grades to team up with.

But soon, Ryoko saw Shengzai in the crowd, who was being dodged by others like a plague, so a smile quickly appeared on her face again, and she politely refused others and slowly walked toward Shengzai's side.

The entire Totsuki Resort was quite large, and although the ingredients here were inferior to rare ingredients, their quality was far better than ordinary ingredients.

When Shengzai and Ryoko arrived at the river, they found that the narrow river channel was almost crowded with people at the moment.

Because the lecturer Hinako Gan's assessment for them was to obtain ingredients from nature within a certain time and cook a dish with a Japanese style.

Compared to finding rare game, fish in the stream were undoubtedly one of the easiest main ingredients for students to obtain.

"Yo, Shengzai, you guys are here too. Come over and help quickly; the situation here is a bit tricky. If it's just me and Tadokoro, we can't handle it."

Just after arriving at the shallow water area of the stream, Shengzai and Ryoko met Chuangzhen Xingping and Megumi Tadokoro who were also catching fish by the river.

At this moment, both Megumi Tadokoro and the other had their pant legs rolled up to their knees, and the two were trying to flank the swimming fish in the stream from left and right, but every time they let the fish dodge flexibly.

The stream water, less than half a meter deep, was clear to the bottom, and one could even see the stream fish swimming constantly in the water with the naked eye.

But although wild stream fish like this were extremely delicious, catching them with bare hands without catching tools was not a simple matter.

Chuangzhen Xingping, as a boy, and having helped with work at his family's restaurant since childhood, had better physical fitness, not to mention.

For girls like Megumi Tadokoro, and those pampered young masters at Totsuki, facing these swimming fish in the stream, they were almost completely helpless.

Seeing that Megumi Tadokoro, in order to catch fish, not only had her clothes soaked but was also panting, Ryoko, after glancing at the swimming fish in the stream, also took off her shoes and rolled up her pant legs to walk into the stream.

The stream fish were quite flexible, but because of the three people's encirclement and interception, one unlucky fish was ultimately caught by Chuangzhen Xingping with his bare hands.

And in just this short while, Ryoko and Megumi Tadokoro, who were already soaked and panting, also understood why those people before had given up catching fish in the shallow water area and went to the deep water area to fish.

Although the swimming fish in the stream were clearly visible, catching flexible swimming fish in the water with bare hands was not an easy task.

Moreover, running in the water consumed more physical strength because of the resistance of the water flow.

Not to mention Chuangzhen Xingping, who was a boy; after several fish-encirclement actions, Megumi Tadokoro and Ryoko, who had weaker constitutions, were already somewhat unable to hold on.

Ryoko was even worse than Megumi Tadokoro because she carried a huge "burden" that Megumi Tadokoro didn't have; every time she bent down to catch fish, her big breasts would consume more of her physical strength due to the influence of gravity.

And until Ryoko and Megumi Tadokoro were soaked and even gave out benefits because of it, Shengzai on the shore looked at the clumsy few and couldn't stand it anymore.

"You guys can't do it like this; you should observe the fish's movements more, and restrain your own aura to lower your presence."

Seeing that Shengzai not only didn't join their fish-catching action but also guided their fish-catching techniques with a look of pointing out the country, Chuangzhen Xingping was also somewhat unconvinced.

"Observe the fish's movements, restrain your own aura; can such a thing be done?"

"Bang——————!"

Accompanied by a huge water column splashing up from in front of Shengzai, before Chuangzhen Xingping's words were finished, Ryoko and the three looked in surprise at the struggling stream fish that had appeared in Shengzai's hand.

After accurately throwing this stream fish into the water bucket on the shore, Shengzai walked slowly to the area where the stream fish were most dense.

And then...

"Bang—bang—bang—bang!"

Every time Shengzai reached his hand into the water, because of the powerful impact, a huge splash would splash up directly.

And then Chuangzhen Xingping and the three of them directly became shocked passersby, watching Shengzai reach his hand into the water every time, and when his palm came out of the water again, there would be a lively stream fish.

In less than a few minutes, the stream fish in the water bucket on the shore were already full to the point of falling out.

And the surrounding Totsuki students who saw Shengzai catching fish with his bare hands were all collectively dumbfounded; if they hadn't tried to catch them just now and returned empty-handed, they would even think that the stream fish here were quite easy to catch.

"Shengzai, how on earth did you do this?"

Looking at the full bucket of stream fish, Chuangzhen Xingping was hit hard; the three of them had wasted so much effort just now to barely catch one stream fish.

And Shengzai, in the time it took for them to talk, had already caught a full bucket.

"So didn't I just say? Observe the fish's movements, and then..."

"Alright, don't say it anymore, I know. Sometimes I really doubt, are you really a human!

Not to mention this outrageous reflex, can a normal person splash a water spray several meters high when reaching out to catch fish?"

Glancing at the other Totsuki students around him who were looking at him with a dumbfounded expression, Shengzai also realized that he had played a bit too much just now.

This was the human realm, not the culinary realm where dangerous creatures were rampant; his fish-catching method before was trained by catching the rare ingredient Puffer Whale in the culinary realm, but placed in the human realm, his fish-catching operation just now was somewhat shocking.

Puffer Whale was a rare ingredient with a capture level as high as 29; it itself didn't have much danger, and it had such a high capture level entirely because of its capture difficulty.

Puffer Whale generally lived in the deep sea and would only swim to the shallows during the spawning period once every ten years.

And capturing this rare ingredient fish required sufficient speed to kill it the moment the Puffer Whale hadn't reacted, otherwise, once it was startled, the poison sac in its body would break, causing it to become worthless.

It is worth mentioning that after capturing the Puffer Whale, dealing with the poison sac in its body was even more difficult.

At that time, in order to taste this delicacy, even Shengzai's knife skills were ruined by quite a few Puffer Whales.

A Puffer Whale without the poison sac removed sold for as much as 100 million yen, and if one could remove the poison sac in its body, the Puffer Whale would turn golden, and its value would soar to 1 billion yen each.

Shengzai caught quite a few at the beginning, but in the end, only four successfully had their poison sacs removed; because he didn't know the value, they all ended up in his and Fengqi's stomachs.
