Placing the basket filled with sliced radishes on the table, Bu Fang calmly glanced at Master Zhao. The latter was in a state of complete shock. His mouth was wide open and his face was filled with disbelief.
To actually compete in cutting radishes with him … Bu Fang did not know what to say. The method he used to practice his Meteor Cutting Technique was to cut radishes. Furthermore, he used a custom-made super-heavy kitchen knife to cut radishes. Under such circumstances, the cutting technique he practiced was naturally extraordinary.
Furthermore, when it came to cutting radishes, Bu Fang was even more skillful and skillful. Every day, he had to cut one thousand radishes. For him, these one hundred radishes could be easily finished within five breaths even with his eyes closed. Therefore, if he had to blame someone, he could only blame Master Zhao for choosing a method that was most beneficial to Bu Fang.
"Let's proceed to the second round," Bu Fang calmly said. Bu Fang calmly said. His voice, which was as calm as an ancient well, woke everyone up from their shock.
"You … How did you do it?! This is impossible! I have painstakingly practiced my cutting technique for more than ten years and I can't even beat a brat like you! "Master Zhao muttered as he shook his head with a despondent expression.
Bu Fang placed the ordinary kitchen knife in his hand on the chopping board. His face was expressionless as he gestured for Master Zhao to take a look at the kitchen knife he had used before.
Master Zhao's pupils instantly constricted as his gaze landed on the kitchen knife. He saw that the edge of the kitchen knife was completely curled up and there were even some cracks on the body of the knife. It seemed to be unable to withstand the heavy load.
"How could one not have gone through arduous practice to achieve this level of cutting technique? You have painstakingly practiced your cutting technique for more than ten years and I have also painstakingly practiced my cutting technique. It's just that the method of practice is different, "Bu Fang calmly said.
Master Zhao was stunned for a moment. Then, he glanced at Bu Fang and his entire being became solemn. He nodded his head and regained his vigor.
"Thank you, Owner Bu, for your guidance. Let's continue, I will do my best," Master Zhao said. After all, this was a battle where his dignity as a chef was at stake. He could not just give up like this.
"The … the second round is to test the accuracy of knife skills. We have prepared two pieces of tofu. Owner Bu and Master Zhao will cut the tofu into shreds. The finer the shreds, the winner will be the one who cuts them." At this moment, Qian Bao had lost his previous confidence. The Meteor Cutting Skill displayed by Bu Fang had completely crushed his confidence.
Bu Fang nodded. Cut tofu? This was indeed a way to test one's knife skills. Because the tofu was very tender, it had a very strict requirement of strength and precision. Once there was a mistake, the entire tofu would fall apart.
Master Zhao did not say anything. Instead, he picked up a slightly narrow kitchen knife and walked toward the piece of tofu on the chopping board with an incomparably serious expression.
The tofu was white, smooth, and extremely fragile. It was as if it would break at the slightest touch.
Because the temperature was relatively low, the tofu had just been taken out, and it was still emitting some heat.
Cutting the tofu was a technical task. Therefore, Master Zhao was completely immersed in it. He gathered all of his energy on the kitchen knife and started cutting the tofu.
While Master Zhao was cutting the tofu, Bu Fang also took out an ordinary kitchen knife. This kitchen knife was not much different from the previous one, it was still the same kind of wide kitchen knife.
His gaze landed on the tofu. After glancing at Master Zhao, who was completely focused and careful, the corners of his mouth slightly twitched.
After experiencing the first round of the competition, the surrounding passersby no longer blindly admired Master Zhao. Many of them were paying attention to Bu Fang's movements. However, very quickly, every one of their faces once again revealed bewildered expressions. They were incomparably shocked.
Facing the tender and delicate tofu, Bu Fang did not choose to be as careful as Master Zhao. It was as if he was treating the tofu as a radish. He twirled the kitchen knife with his fingers, twirled it, and then fiercely cut the delicate tofu.
Just like the scene from before when he was cutting the radish, as the knife flashed, it was as if countless meteors were streaking across the darkness. The white and tender tofu immediately began to slightly tremble.
After another four breaths of time, Bu Fang had already finished cutting the tofu. He put away the kitchen knife and looked at the tofu in front of him. The tofu was still in perfect condition, as if it had not been cut at all.
"What … What's going on? Nothing happened to the tofu? " Some people could not help but discuss in low voices. After all, seeing was believing. However, the tofu in front of them was completely the same as before.
"Don't be anxious." Bu Fang calmly said, suppressing the discussions in the surroundings. He used his hand to carefully lift up the spotless white and warm tofu and placed it into a transparent bowl that had been prepared by Bu Fang. This bowl was prepared by Qian Bao, and it allowed one to observe the appearance of the tofu from 360 degrees without any blind spots.
Bu Fang held the tofu in his hand and carefully placed it into the bowl. Then, he suddenly released his hand and pulled it out from the bowl without making a single splash.
In the next moment, the tofu in the transparent bowl underwent an incredible transformation.
The transformation was carried out silently. Strand after strand of fine, fluff-like tofu floated in the water like a flower bud, quietly blooming. The slender tofu strands were its petals.
This was the first layer. Immediately after, the second layer of tofu petals bloomed at different angles. Every strand was incomparably fine as it floated in the water.
The bottom of the tofu seemed to be naturally elongated. Then, under the force of the water, the tofu strands rose up one after another, layer after layer, as if there were a thousand layers of flowers.
"Thousand Layer Tofu Flower, please enjoy."
Bu Fang's fingers moved slightly, and the kitchen knife instantly landed on the chopping board as he calmly said to the crowd.
Thousand Layer Tofu Flower. Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. A cube of tofu could actually be cut into such a beautiful tofu flower. The slender petals were even more delicate than fluff, as if they would break at the slightest touch …
The sunlight shone down, passing through the transparent bowl and shining on the floating thousand layer tofu flower. The flower roots seemed to be fluttering in the wind, and it was extremely beautiful.
Qian Bao's legs were a little weak. Once this tofu flower appeared, who could compete with it? There was no way to compete with it.
It turned out that it was not that Bu Fang did not know how to use a knife, but that he did not want to compete with them. Qian Bao could not help but smile bitterly. He was actually shamelessly looking for trouble, and he was really stupid.
The passersby surrounding the transparent bowl continuously let out cries of surprise, and continuously praised the beautiful tofu flower. They had already been completely conquered by it.
Master Zhao, who was at the side, was still meticulously using the kitchen knife in his hand to cut the tofu. He did not give up just like that, and he was not the slightest bit affected by the outside world. He was completely focused on completing the work in his hands.
Bu Fang nodded, and he could not help but feel admiration for this Master Zhao. This was a chef who truly respected his own dishes.
After about ten minutes, Master Zhao finished his work and placed it into the transparent bowl. Every strand of tofu strand was extremely thin. Even though it could not be compared to the thousand layer tofu flower, it was already considered the pinnacle of knife skills.
"Owner Bu, I admit that my skills are not as good as yours, and I have lost. There is no need to compete in the third round. Compared to Owner Bu's knife skills, I am far too lacking, and I still need to work hard," Master Zhao said to Bu Fang, feeling helpless and bitter.
Bu Fang nodded, and the system in his mind had already notified him that he had completed the quest.
Qian Bao was defeated this time. He was also very depressed in his heart when he stuck his face in front of Bu Fang. Both Bu Fang's culinary skills and knife skills were so monstrous that it was simply unimaginable. However, the Hidden Dragon Continent was vast and boundless, so it was normal for some monstrous people to appear.
"Owner Bu's culinary skills are so outstanding, and his knife skills are also so sharp. It is truly a waste of talent to condescend to this small store. I wonder if Owner Bu is interested in joining my Immortal Phoenix Restaurant? We can work together, and with Owner Bu's culinary skills and the Immortal Phoenix Restaurant's reputation, you will definitely be famous throughout the entire continent!" The thought of recruiting Bu Fang arose in Qian Bao's mind.
"Not interested."
It was obvious that Bu Fang was very decisive in his refusal. Even the emperor was mercilessly rejected by him, so what could a mere Immortal Phoenix Restaurant do?
Ouyang Xiaoyi was lying in front of the transparent bowl, and her big eyes were filled with amazement as she looked at the thousand layer tofu flower that seemed to have been cut by the gods. Yang Chen was also very surprised. Was this really something that could be done with a kitchen knife? The world of chefs … was indeed unfathomable!
Suddenly, a palm slapped down on their shoulders. The two of them were startled at the same time, and then they felt the true energy in their bodies being suppressed by a powerful pressure, and they were completely unable to move.
Ouyang Xiaoyi and Yang Chen looked at each other, and both thought to themselves, "Oh no!"
