“You…”
Examining the Fog Hidden Badge closely, once Luo Hui confirmed that it truly belonged to Mr. Zong Nian, something that could only be obtained by passing the most difficult Second-Level Food Recommender assessment in Tianhua State, he was dumbstruck.
How long had Qin Lang been to Qingyang City?
Only a scant week.
And during this week, he had even assisted Zhao’s Noodle House in a pasta competition against the cooking champion of Qingyang City.
That is to say, the time he had to prepare for Mr. Zong Nian’s test amounted to no more than three or four days.
That’s why Luo Hui had just made that remark.
In his view, the fact that Qin Lang had returned from Qingyang City in such a short time was surely because he had realized how difficult Mr. Zong Nian’s assessment was. Unable to complete it in the short term, he must have chosen to give up.
Luo Hui never imagined that the situation would be completely different from his guess.
Within such a short time, Qin Lang passed the assessment by Mr. Zong Nian, regarded as the most difficult Second-Level Food Recommender test in Tianhua State?!
Luo Hui knew a thing or two about the specifics of that assessment.
One dish to satisfy the demands of three First-Level Food Recommenders, and in addition, Mr. Zong Nian would make some adjustments to the assessment depending on the circumstances of the Spirit Chef taking the test.
Such an assessment made Luo Hui’s scalp prickle just listening to the description.
If Qin Lang’s smooth attainment of the second Second-Level Food Recommender Badge had given Luo Hui a new understanding of Qin Lang’s culinary skills, then Qin Lang passing Mr. Zong Nian’s assessment made Luo Hui raise his estimation of Qin Lang another notch.
“Good lad.” After a long silence, Luo Hui suddenly drained the juice in front of him and stood up, his face jubilant.
“I have a hunch that after the provincial cooking competition five months from now, the title you will receive may not be Outstanding Chef, but the one above that, Starlight Chef!”
Initially, Luo Hui’s highest expectation of Qin Lang was that he would participate in this year’s provincial cooking competition. As for what rank Qin Lang could achieve, he hadn’t considered that at all.
After all, in such a competition, Qin Lang would face other Spirit Chefs like himself who have collected five Second-Level Food Recommender Badges. Their culinary skills were far beyond those of the participants in the city-level cooking competition.
But now, Luo Hui felt that he could be more bold in his thinking.
Giving Qin Lang a retainer fee of 100,000 a month was probably the most correct decision he had made in his life!
“Starlight Chef?” Qin Lang looked puzzled.
This was the first time he had even heard of the rank of chef above Outstanding Chef.
Now it seemed that both were related to the provincial cooking competition.
“Uncle Luo Hui, can you tell me how to achieve the titles of Outstanding Chef and Starlight Chef?”
“Of course.” Luo Hui smiled, “To tell the truth, I only knew about this because of that fellow Li Hong.”
“With your culinary skills, you’ll find out about this sooner or later.”
His expression turned a bit serious, “The difficulty of the provincial cooking competition is extremely high. But that doesn’t mean the scale of the competition is small.”
“Every provincial cooking competition has no less than fifty participants, and in contrast to city-level cooking competitions, the process of the provincial competition is completely different.”
“If you make it into the top eight in the provincial cooking competition, you can earn the title of Outstanding Chef.”
The top eight in the provincial cooking competition?
Qin Lang nodded thoughtfully.
So, Li Hong, who is already an Outstanding Chef, once made it into the top eight of a provincial cooking competition?
“What about Starlight Chef?” Qin Lang asked curiously.
“Compared to Outstanding Chef, getting the Starlight Chef title is even more challenging.” Luo Hui chuckled, “Only the champion of a provincial cooking competition can get the title of Starlight Chef.”
“Provincial cooking champion?” Qin Lang blinked.
Associating the correlation between the titles in the cooking competition and the training competition, it seemed that Zhou Tianhao, having won the provincial training championship, should have received the title of Starlight Trainer.
Then, Qin Lang remembered what Uncle Luo Hui had just said.
Uncle Luo Hui thought he could get the title of Starlight Chef, meaning he thought Qin Lang could become the champion of the provincial cooking competition?
He immediately showed a somewhat embarrassed expression. “Uncle Luo Hui, the championship of a provincial cooking competition is not so easy to win.”
More than fifty Spirit Chefs participate, each of them having obtained more than five Second-Level Food Recommender Badges within Tianhua State.
The intensity of a provincial cooking competition was self-evident.
Even for Qin Lang, he didn’t dare to be so confident.
“Even if you can’t do it this year, you’ll certainly be able to in the next one or the one after.” Luo Hui chuckled, “A provincial cooking champion in Tianhua State is crowned every year, but it’s not every year that someone passes Mr. Zong Nian’s assessment.”
“Anyway, I’m looking forward to your performance at the provincial competition.” He clapped Qin Lang on the shoulder, “Now that you’ve obtained the Fog Hidden Badge, you only need to collect two more Second-Level Food Recommender Badges. Do you have a target in mind?”
“Uh…” Qin Lang looked thoughtful, “I was originally planning to go to Hongfan City and Danju City after passing the test in Qingyang City and get the Second-Level Food Recommender Badges from those two places.”
Previously, Lei Ke had invited Qin Lang to visit Danju City. Qin Lang was also interested, so he planned to make Danju City the last stop to win a
Second-Level Food Recommender Badge, and then go straight back to Dongxia City to prepare for the provincial cooking competition.
Of course, that was his previous plan.
“Did something unexpected happen?” Upon hearing the meaning in Qin Lang’s words, Luo Hui became curious.
“Yes.” Qin Lang nodded, “Mr. Zhou Qing invited me to attend a food festival called Leaping Fish Banquet in Mingjing Province. It’s a rare opportunity for me, so I have to change my original travel plans.”
“Oh?” Luo Hui smiled, “It seems Mr. Zhou Qing really thinks highly of you.”
“Mingjing Province huh…” Luo Hui pondered for a while, then shook his head helplessly, “I’d thought about going to see the sea there before, but it didn’t materialize.”
“1 don’t know much about that place, so I can’t help you.”
“But I’ve heard of the Leaping Fish Banquet.” He suddenly smiled, “Coincidentally, Li Hong is also on the invitee list.”
“Mr. Li Hong is going too?” Qin Lang blinked.
He suddenly remembered that this Outstanding Chef was indeed very good at cooking fish dishes. When he had appeared in Uncle Luo Hui’s restaurant before, it was to help Starlight Restaurant out of its predicament due to the lack of fish dishes.
“He gave you his business card before.” Luo Hui clapped Qin Lang on the shoulder and laughed, “Now that’s settled.”
