Chapter 1189

A moment later, everyone went to pick their ingredients.

Captain Dragonfly didn't announce a theme, which means this competition is free-style; you can make whatever you want.

However, this stumped Extra Feng Xi because there was simply too much he could make.

Extra Feng Xi: "Sakura, what do you think is good to make?"

Sakura: "Hehe, as long as it's made by Senior, I like it."

Extra Feng Xi: "(=_=)"

I'm not asking you this...

Forget it, I'll think about it myself.

Extra Feng Xi took Sakura to the ingredient area, planning to look as they walked.

Looking at those green and tender vegetables, Extra Feng Xi was very satisfied.

As expected of something prepared by the system, they were no different from being just picked from the field, and they were all of the best quality.

After looking for a long time, Extra Feng Xi decided to make his specialty: Zha Jiang Mian (Noodles with Soybean Paste).

Mainly because Extra Feng Xi himself likes Zha Jiang Mian, so he has made it many times, and naturally, he is more proficient at it than other dishes.

First, he took a piece of pork belly, then seasonings like fermented black beans, soybean paste, sweet bean sauce, and side dishes like cucumber, carrots, and bean sprouts.

Of course, there was also the flour needed to make the noodles.

Three hours is more than enough to make handmade noodles.

Bringing all the materials back to the cooking station, he let Sakura help mince the meat and cut the vegetables, while Extra Feng Xi started kneading the dough.

Half an hour had passed, and everyone else had decided what to make.

Every team was proceeding in an orderly manner, of course, there were also some who were off-track.

"Astolfo, what are you doing!"

Watching Astolfo throw ingredients directly into a pot that hadn't been turned on, Sieg was very helpless.

This pot of water is for blanching (テ_デ)!

"Eh? Isn't that how it's done?"

Astolfo looked confused.

"You're talking about the way to make vegetable soup, and even if it's vegetable soup, the water hasn't boiled yet, how can you throw the vegetables in directly?"

Charlemagne was also a bit helpless and said: "Looks like we have to redo it, fortunately, there is still plenty of time."

Stuck with a teammate like Astolfo whose brain shorts out from time to time, what can they do? Of course, forgive him.

"Illya, that's vinegar!"

The Shirou Emiya team also almost had a problem.

Shirou Emiya asked Illya to pass him the soy sauce, but who would have thought she would pass him a bottle of vinegar. Fortunately, he discovered it in time, otherwise, the dish would have been ruined.

"Oh my, sorry, I took the wrong one."

Seeing that her plan didn't succeed, Illya apologized insincerely.

That's right, she did it on purpose.

She didn't care about winning or losing; she just wanted to find some fun.

Shirou Emiya naturally saw through her thoughts, but what could he do?

This is his 'sister' after all; if he doesn't spoil her, who will?

"Sizzle—"

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Just then, a strong spicy smell swept across the arena, causing everyone to cough continuously.

It was Kirei Kotomine; this guy had already started to show his power.

Red sauce and tofu were rolling continuously in the pot, forming a fiery landscape.

He even learned how to toss the pan; this guy really hasn't been idle all these years.

It was this domineering scene that made the judges feel panicked.

Is that thing really for humans to eat?

Especially the two humans, Luvia and Taiga Fujimura, who already felt their stomachs hurting.

"Is this guy making a biochemical weapon!"

Because the Rin Tohsaka team was relatively close to Kirei Kotomine, they were deeply affected, and all three of them had red eyes from the smoke.

The Rin Tohsaka team consisted of Rin Tohsaka, Magic Rin, and Illya.

It's over, they already felt their sense of smell was destroyed; how can they cook now!

"Oh, it smells pretty good."

Of course, not everyone couldn't stand the Mapo Priest's masterpiece, for example, Arcueid.

She was instead interested in the Mapo Priest's cooking and wanted to learn from him.

"Better not..."

Akiha Tohno and others around her immediately stopped her.

Just kidding, your flaming okonomiyaki is scary enough, and now you want to learn from the Mapo Priest—

Are you trying to make murder food!

Because of the Mapo Priest's 'troublemaking', others had more or less some mishaps, but Extra Feng Xi was not included.

As a Chinese person, he expressed that this level of spiciness is just a sprinkle of water.

He had already made the noodles, and next, he would leave the boiling of the noodles to Sakura, while he started to simmer the soybean paste.

Scallions, ginger, minced meat, and soybean paste were added to the pot one after another and stir-fried. After the sauce fragrance came out, he added water starch to thicken it.

The oily and fragrant soybean paste was thus finished.

"Alright."

Just then, the Mapo Priest had also finished his cooking and brought it to the judge's seat.
