In the end, Gu Zheng's Egg-Fried Rice was finished by him and Wang Dong.
This time, the taste was indeed much better than Wang Dong's. It was almost comparable to a fried egg. If the main ingredients were changed to ordinary grade, the taste would not be inferior to a fried egg. Perhaps this was the main reason why Gokusen approved of it.
No matter what, Gu Zheng had gained another culinary skill. Moreover, this culinary skill was not taught by Gokusen. He had comprehended it himself and created it himself. It was his own culinary skill.
This showed that his talent in culinary skills was not bad. Although he did not know what the reward was, Gu Zheng's smile never stopped.
"Just a small achievement and you are already so proud. You have not tasted the Egg-Fried Rice personally made by Lord Gokusen. If you have, you will not be like this!"
The weapon spirit seemed to dislike Gu Zheng and could not help but attack him.
Lord Gokusen also knew how to make Egg-Fried Rice, and he was much better at it than Gu Zheng. However, this time, the Egg-Fried Rice was comprehended by Gu Zheng himself and was not taught by Gokusen. Although the weapon spirit did not like Gu Zheng, there was nothing he could do.
"I will not compare myself with Lord Gokusen. I will compare myself!"
Gu Zheng did not care about the weapon spirit's attack. What kind of strength did Gokusen have? What kind of strength did he have? Moreover, how old was Gokusen? How old was he? If he had Gokusen's experience and immortal energy, he believed that the food he made would not be inferior to Gokusen's.
To him, it was enough that the Egg-Fried Rice could conquer himself and the people around him.
After eating Gu Zheng's Egg-Fried Rice, the three of them did not eat anything else and returned to their room to rest. Just as they closed the door, Gu Zheng's vision suddenly changed and he reappeared in the chaotic space.
"Weapon spirit, can we discuss something? Next time, if you drag me into the chaotic space, can you let me know first?"
Gu Zheng couldn't help but make a suggestion. Just as he was thinking about something else, he was suddenly brought to a different place. Every time he was brought here, he would feel very uncomfortable.
"Do you still want the reward?" The Artifact Spirit didn't answer his question.
"Of course!"
"If you want it, then you have to accept it. Lord Gokusen has already set up a reward for you. This is the first time you have created a culinary skill that has gained the recognition of Lord Gokusen. The reward is that the size of the Chaos Space will be doubled, and the amount of immortal rice planted in the Chaos Space will be increased tenfold!"
Just as the Artifact Spirit's voice faded, the chaotic space around Gu Zheng suddenly started to roll. Then, under Gu Zheng's gaze, the space around him expanded by one fold. In the expanded space, another ninety light spots fell into Gu Zheng's space. The amount of immortal rice planted in the chaotic space had reached a hundred stalks.
Gu Zheng had harvested immortal rice twice. The second harvest was not as lucky as the first, where he obtained the rice marrow. After two harvests, Gu Zheng's harvest was about half a kilogram. Gu Zheng had been saving these immortal rice all this time. Even when he cooked porridge, he only took out a little bit of it.
Now that the amount of immortal rice had increased tenfold, it meant that his future harvest would also increase tenfold. This was definitely good news for Gu Zheng. With more immortal rice, he would be able to use it to cook Egg-Fried Rice. He might even be able to cook Egg-Fried Rice with only ordinary grade ingredients.
"Gokusen's successor, the Chaos Space has expanded. Your Gokusen Immortal Art has reached the second realm. In the future, the time you can spend in the Chaos Space will increase to half an hour every day."
The Artifact Spirit said again. This time, not only did the Chaos Space expand, even the time he could spend inside was extended.
Half an hour was twice as long as the previous fifteen minutes. The longer he could cultivate in the Chaos Space every day, the more beneficial it would be for the growth of his immortal energy.
Especially now, Gu Zheng knew that there were other immortal cultivators on Earth. He felt a sense of pressure in his heart and was even more concerned about cultivation.
"The reward this time is really not bad!"
Looking at the expanded Chaos Space, Gu Zheng kept nodding his head. The amount of immortal rice had increased tenfold. Although the yield was still not much, he could harvest at least a few kilograms every time it ripened. It was much better than not even half a kilogram of immortal rice.
It was a pity that only the immortal rice had increased tenfold. The immortal vegetables and immortal chickens had not been touched.
Just thinking about it, Gu Zheng couldn't help but laugh. He was a little too greedy. To be able to have such a harvest was already very good. He now completely understood the intentions of the Artifact Spirit and Gokusen. If he wanted more harvest, it would be very easy. He just had to complete the test. Completing the test would not only give him more harvest, but also enhance his cooking skills.
Looking at it now, Gokusen also gave a wry smile. In order for his successor to grow better and not completely rely on him, he had set up all kinds of tests so that his successor could grow up step by step.
With this thought, Gu Zheng was no longer so resistant to the test.
The next morning, the three of them woke up early and ate the Egg-Fried Rice made by Gu Zheng. Wang Dong and Mu Mu both had a satisfied look on their faces as they drank the rice porridge that he cooked.
The amount of immortal rice had increased. Today, Gu Zheng was not stingy. He specially took out a little bit to cook the porridge so that the three of them could eat more. The Egg-Fried Rice used Wang Dong's tribute rice. It was a bit extravagant to use his immortal rice to cook the Egg-Fried Rice.
After two days of the preliminary competition, there were only six hundred people left out of the five thousand contestants. These six hundred people had to fight again in ten different venues. In the end, only two hundred people could participate in tomorrow's competition.
This was another fierce match where three people would advance to the next round.
Different from yesterday, today's competition was re-divided. However, Gu Zheng and Wang Dong were still in the ninth venue. The nineteenth venue was closed. The contestants who had advanced there would come to the ninth venue and participate in the competition with them.
There were sixty people, and each group had fifteen people. The number of people was a little more than yesterday, but the time was extended. Each group's competition time was one hour. Two groups would be held in the morning, and two groups would be held in the afternoon.
At this time, the competition was testing everyone's true level. Half an hour was not enough for some dishes. Therefore, the competition time was extended so that the contestants could have more time to prepare their own dishes.
However, Gu Zheng and Wang Dong were not included. Every time they competed, the two of them would end early. The dishes they cooked were simple. Not to mention half an hour, they would not even take ten minutes. This made many other contestants envious.
When Gu Zheng and the other two arrived at the ninth venue, there were still many people here. There were even more people than yesterday.
Seeing the arrival of Gu Zheng and the other two, the originally quiet crowd instantly became lively. This time, Gu Zheng did not need Mu Mu to inquire. He knew that these people must have come for him.
In fact, it was also so. Yesterday's official video had caused a great sensation.
Those who had seen the video could not understand how someone could make fried eggs like this. It was like a work of art. Even if they had seen the fried eggs in the video, they could not believe it. Many people wanted to come to the scene to see Gu Zheng make fried eggs.
Seeing was believing. If they did not believe in the video, they could only come to the scene. That was why there were so many people here.
Because there were too many people in the ninth venue, the organizing committee also increased the security force here by five times. Fortunately, ten venues were closed, so there were enough security deployment. Otherwise, the organizing committee could not take care of this place alone.
