Instructing Dan Bao to use Thought Waves to carefully put the fragile pieces of paper back into the box, Qin Lang calmed his rampant emotions and turned to look at Lu Dong.

“Mr. Lu Dong, thank you.”

“No need for formalities.” Lu Dong shook his head slightly, his face showing a complex expression.

“The ancestors of the Lu family left this note in hopes that one of their descendants would be a Spirit Chef with enough talent to touch the mysteries of the Firestorm technique. It’s a pity that all these years, there hasn’t been one.” “As you have already touched a bit of the mystery of Firestorm, it’s appropriate that you should have a chance to investigate it. More importantly,” Mr. Lu Dong’s voice paused slightly, “I have a request.”

“Please go ahead.” Qin Lang nodded without hesitation.

“In the future, if you have the slightest chance of mastering the long-lost Firestorm technique, I hope you can return here to duel with me using that technique.” Lu Dong looked at Qin Lang with a pleading expression.

“I really want to see what the powerful secret technique that our ancestors have been pursuing throughout their lives is like.”

“If there’s such a day, I will definitely come back.” Qin Lang’s face became solemn and he agreed without hesitation.

“Haha.” Hearing Qin Lang’s affirmative response, Lu Dong was delighted, “In that case, we should leave this place.”

“Okay!” Although he knew that other books and documents here might also be useful, the few pages of notes had already given him a lot of help. Therefore, Qin Lang was not greedy and follow Lu Dong out of the secret room.

The two climbed the stairs and quickly returned to the surface of the training ground.

“When are you leaving Lanqiu City?” At the doorstep of the training hall, Lu Dong asked with a smile. “I can feel that you won’t stay here for long.”

“Yes.” Qin Lang recalled the discussion he had with Shen Qian and Zhou Tianhao over dinner tonight, “If nothing unexpected happens, tomorrow I will leave Lanqiu City with my partners and head to Ye Zhi City.”

“Ye Zhi City? That’s a city with beautiful scenery.” Lu Dong nodded in understanding, contemplated for a moment, then began to speak slowly, “I have one more small question to ask you.”

“Please go ahead.” Qin Lang answered respectfully.

“After winning the championship in the Lanqiu City Youth Training Competition today, you should have 50 Training Competition Points in your account.” Lu Dong paused slightly, “Do you have plans on how to use those points?”

“Yes.” Qin Lang nodded, “I plan to exchange these fifty Training Competition Points for two Skill Stones, to prepare for Dan Bao and Spicy’s awakening of newskills.”

“Not bad.” Lu Dong nodded slightly, revealing a knowing expression, “What is your plan for Dan Bao’s next skill?”

“For Dan Bao’s next skill, I hope it will be a Nature-based Combat Skill.” Qin Lang did not hesitate to voice his thoughts.

About this matter, he had discussed it with Zhou Tianhao during dinner, and had considered Zhou Tianhao’s advice.

“Ideally, this Nature-based Combat Skill should be of the Storm or Thunder type. These types of Nature-based Combat Skills complement the Fire type and make it easier to master new Combined Battle Skills.”

“Even the possibility of combining three combat skills to form a Three Combo Combat Technique is not out of the question.”

“Good planning.” Lu Dong smiled, “I originally thought you would consider awakening another Fire-type combat skill. If you had the chance to master the Firestorm technique in the future, it would greatly leverage the advantage of your Food Spirit.”

“Indeed.” Qin Lang slightly nodded, agreeing with Lu Dong’s words, “But mastering other types of Nature-based Combat Skills may also give Dan Bao a chance to touch other secret techniques, which would also be beneficial.” “What about Spicy?” Having asked about Dan Bao, whom he was most interested in, Lu Dong glanced at Spicy on the side.

Although this Food Spirit doesn’t possess a Fire-based Nature Combat Skill, its performance in the finals was equally stunning, leaving a deep impression on Lu Dong.

“For Spicy’s third combat skill, I hope it will have some controlling effects.” Qin Lang answered without hesitation, “This will allow it to better leverage its advantage of the Lucky Bite Mark, and continually damage its opponents.”

“A combat skill with controlling effects…” Lu Dong nodded slightly, “Such skills exist in Nature, Fighting, and Mind types, so there’s a wide range of choices.”

“However…” his expression turned a bit odd, “a Skill Stone that meets your requirements is at least a Second-Level Skill Stone, and the types you’ve chosen are quite popular, thus requiring more points to exchange.”

“I’m afraid 50 points won’t be enough.”

“I understand.” Hearing Lu Dong’s words, there was a hint of helplessness in Qin Lang’s expression, “I have to find a way to earn more Training Competition Points, or acquire Skill Stones through other means.”

In fact, Qin Lang isn’t entirely without options.

At dinner, Zhou Tianhao had mentioned that he still had some remaining Training Competition Points.

If Qin Lang needed them, Zhou Tianhao could use his points to exchange for Skill Stones for Qin Lang, and later Qin Lang could use an equivalent amount of points to help Zhou Tianhao exchange for what he needs.

If he could rank in the Provincial Youth Training Competition, it would be easy to return the points he owed to Zhou Tianhao.

Borrowing points from each other is quite common among Spirit Chefs who are familiar with each other.

After all, everyone lacks resources.

Especially for strong Spirit Chefs, cultivating their own Food Spirits is a bottomless pit.

However, there was no need to tell Mr. Lu Dong about this.

“Keep it up, young man.” Lu Dong patted Qin Lang’s shoulder and laughed, “I know you’re from Tianhua State. Will you be participating in the Mingjing Province Youth Training Competition this time?”

“Yes.” Qin Lang nodded, “Once the Provincial Youth Training Competition ends, I will return to Tianhua State.”

“In that case, I’ll be watching your competition live on TV!” Lu Dong thumped his chest, “Good luck!”

“Okay!”

The next day.

The morning sun filtered through the gaps in the building and fell on the platform of the Lanqiu City Train Station.

Accompanied by the sound of a distant train whistle, the train wheels and the rails paired, emitting a “rumbling” sound.

As the homestretch of passenger cars came to a complete stop among the excited expressions of the waiting crowd, the closed door of the train carriage opened in response to the station’s public announcement, as passengers alighted and boarded orderly under the direction of the conductor.

In the crowd, Qin Lang and the others picked up their luggage to board the train, quickly found their seats and before long, the train started moving with a long whistle.

Looking at the rapidly retreating scenery outside the window, a smile appeared on Qin Lang’s face.

Farewell, Lanqiu City.
