I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 1835 Imperial Kitchen

Time passed quietly like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, three hours had passed. However, in this Danzong test, the participants had just completed less than one-tenth of the test.

In fact, Danzong's test efficiency is not low, but the number of applicants this year is much higher than in previous years. This has led to some deficiencies in Danzong's preparation.

"Should we have lunch now?" Liu Jun turned and asked the Grand Elder Wu Ning beside him.

"Yes, the test will be suspended for an hour to give everyone time to eat. We will continue after an hour." replied Elder Wu Ning.

"Then where do we go to eat?" Liu Jun became curious. He had heard that Danzong had a canteen that specialized in providing food. It seemed to be called the Imperial Kitchen. However, he heard that the food there was not very delicious.

Regarding the rumors about the Imperial Kitchen, he had heard such a story: The master of the Imperial Kitchen was once the master of the Weapon Refining Hall, and he was very powerful. However, the most powerful magic weapon he refined was eventually destroyed, which made him discouraged, and then he went to the Imperial Kitchen. Since then, the cooking skills of the Imperial Kitchen have deteriorated, and the food they made has become more and more unpalatable.

This rumor made Liu Jun even more curious about the food in the Imperial Kitchen. He especially wanted to know what the food there would taste like.

"Contestants who have been selected can eat in the Imperial Kitchen. Those who have not been selected and are queuing outside will be provided with the Bailing Pill." Supreme Elder Wu Ning was quite patient with Liu Jun.

After all, Liu Jun has a lot of delicious food, and he has no other hobbies except eating.

Liu Jun knew about the Bailing Pill, which was a kind of pill that could resist hunger and replenish physical strength. Any ordinary alchemy apprentice could make it. It was not worth much, but giving one to each of so many people was definitely a big deal.

"Oh, so what about us?" Liu Jun handed a piece of chocolate to Grand Elder Wu Ning.

When seeing what Liu Jun was holding, the Supreme Elder Wuning's eyes were filled with a smile, and there was a bit more appreciation in his eyes when he looked at Liu Jun.

Gently taking the chocolate handed over by Liu Jun, the small package glowed attractively in the sun. Although Wu Ning's Grand Elder had lived for tens of thousands of years, he always had an elegant taste for food.

"Liu Jun, you always find something that makes people happy." Wu Ning Taishang Elder smiled and peeled off the chocolate wrapper. The rich fragrance immediately filled the air, attracting the attention of people around him. Wu Ning Taishang Elder was not in a hurry to eat, but carefully observed every inch of the texture of the chocolate, as if he was appreciating a rare work of art.

Liu Jun looked at the Wu Ning Grand Elder enjoying himself, and he felt very satisfied. Although the immortals pursued a state of transcendence, they could not completely abandon their basic seven emotions and six desires.

Being able to bring happiness to others, even if it is just a small piece of chocolate, is one of the values ​​of existence. For example, now, if anyone wants to do anything to him, Supreme Elder Wuning will probably be the first one to disagree.

"We also have to go to the Imperial Kitchen to eat, but at our current level, we won't starve to death even if we don't eat. But if we eat the food in the Imperial Kitchen, we might be poisoned to death." After eating the chocolate, Supreme Elder Wu Ning explained the situation in the Imperial Kitchen with a look of disgust.

As an elder who loves food, Wu Ning Taishang Elder thinks that the chefs in the Imperial Kitchen are not cooking, but wasting ingredients. He doubts the quality of the dishes in the Imperial Kitchen, and even thinks that it is possible that these guys are not cooking, but poisoning.

Liu Jun felt that what Grand Elder Wu Ning said was a bit exaggerated. After all, this was the God Realm. Even if the food was not delicious, it would not be too bad. He had some expectations for the food in the Imperial Kitchen.

The Supreme Elder Wuning did not explain any further, but just gave Liu Jun a meaningful look. The meaning was very clear: whether it tastes good or not, you will know when you go there.

At this moment, a huge bell sounded throughout the entire Danzong, ending the morning test. Most of the invited guests planned to return to their residences to rest. Only a small number of guests who came to Danzong for the first time planned to go to the Danzong Imperial Kitchen to enjoy the Danzong's delicacies.

When they arrived at the Imperial Kitchen, they saw that it was magnificent with carved beams and painted buildings, just like a palace. However, the dishes in the Imperial Kitchen did not disappoint them. The dishes were rich and varied, with good color, aroma and taste, making people salivate.

"It looks so good, it shouldn't be too bad." Liu Jun muttered. He looked at the exquisite dishes in the imperial dining hall. Each dish was like a work of art, making people drool.

"Haha, young man, you are still too naive." Wu Ning's Grand Elder sneered. He was deceived by the appearance of these delicious dishes, thinking that if they looked good, they must be delicious.

Later he picked one of the dishes, took a bite, and almost vomited his bitter gall.

"Seeing is believing, hearing is false, and practice is truth." Liu Jun took a chopstick from the dish that looked very good in front of him without hesitation and put it into his mouth. However, his face immediately turned ugly, and a series of vomiting sounds were heard. Not only him, but also those who came to the Imperial Kitchen for the first time could not hold it back. He felt that his mouth had begun to burn, as if someone had set a fire in his mouth, making his whole face red.

The dish in front of Liu Jun was called Sweet Shredded Pepper. It had a nice name and looked good. It was like a sweet potato with a layer of sweet shreds on top, and underneath was the famous peppers in the God Realm, which were so spicy that they could kill ordinary people. If Liu Jun wasn't so strong, he would have died on the spot after taking a bite.

At this time, Liu Jun's face was pale, and the red juice of chili was still hanging on the corners of his mouth. He looked at the dish with an unbelievable look on his face. He understood that sometimes, appearance cannot determine everything, and only by listening to others' advice can you have a full meal.

A guest who was invited to attend the Dan Selection Conference had a livid face and eyes flashing with anger. He slammed the table hard, and the sound exploded in the hall like thunder. "Fuck, what's wrong with you Dan Sect? You even gave us such poisonous dishes to eat?"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately echoed, "That's right, a dignified Dan Sect doesn't even have a proper cook?" This person's voice was full of dissatisfaction and ridicule.

Generally speaking, guests who were invited to attend the Dan Selection Conference all had something to ask of Dan Zong, so they would give Dan Zong some face, but these few people really couldn't resist the food, and the food their pigs eat tasted better than this.

The people in the Imperial Kitchen seemed to have gotten used to it a long time ago, and their facial expressions didn't change at all, because every time the Alchemy Selection Conference was held, someone in the Imperial Kitchen would get angry.

Just as everyone was talking about it, suddenly a man who was nearly three meters tall and looked like a mobile iron tower walked out with a big knife and a ferocious face.

His appearance made everyone present feel a strong sense of oppression. This man was the master of the Imperial Kitchen. He was one step away from entering the Half-Step God King realm. His strength was extremely powerful, but he was also famous for his bad temper. In particular, he couldn't stand others saying that the food he cooked was not delicious.

The Grand Elder Wu Ning who was standing by watched the scene, sighed softly, and then explained to Liu Jun, "This is the Palace Master Rao Tiexiong of the Imperial Kitchen. He is very powerful, but he has a weird temper. He especially cannot stand others saying that the food he cooks is not tasty."

Seeing the lingering fear on the face of Grand Elder Wu Ning, Liu Jun couldn't help but feel curious and asked, "Grand Elder, has there ever been any special story between you and Palace Master Rao Tiexiong?"

Wu Ning Grand Elder sighed softly, and then slowly said: "Actually, there is no special story. I once said that his cooking tasted like shit, and then this reckless man chased me for three days and three nights. In the end, it was the leader of Cang Hai Sect who intervened, and he finally stopped."

When talking about this matter, the face of Supreme Elder Wuning was still full of gloom.

After hearing this, Liu Jun looked at Grand Elder Wu Ning in shock and couldn't help asking, "Grand Elder, your strength is already at the early stage of the Half-Step Divine King Realm. It should be easy for you to deal with someone who can still reach the Half-Step Divine King Realm. How come you were chased by him for three days and three nights?"

"I don't know where that ruffian got an iron rod with shit on it, and he actually wanted to fight me in a duel. I was afraid that he would hit me, but I couldn't hit him too hard and hurt him. After all, he was one of ours, so I could only hide." The Supreme Elder Wuning shook his head and said with a melancholy look on his face.

Hearing this, Liu Jun couldn't help but feel speechless. The behavior of this Rao Tiexiong Palace Master was really awesome. He couldn't help but imagine the scene at that time. The Wuning Supreme Elder was avoiding the attack of Rao Tiexiong Palace Master, and at the same time he had to prevent his shit-stained iron rod from getting close. The scene was really full of humor.

"Oh. That's not right. Isn't Supreme Elder Canghai afraid of that iron rod?" Liu Jun continued to ask.

After a few days of contact, Liu Jun discovered that the Supreme Elder Canghai actually had a mild mysophobia. How could he possibly get close to a madman holding an iron stick dipped in shit?

"Cang Hai is a holy body of water spirit. He used a whole lake of water to give that reckless man a bath that day, which allowed me to escape from his pursuit." Thinking back to what happened that day, Supreme Elder Wu Ning still has lingering fears.

After hearing this, Liu Jun couldn't help but laugh. He thought that this Palace Master Rao Tiexiong was so interesting. It had been a long time since he met such a ruthless person.

When they saw Rao Tiexiong come out, those who had previously shouted that the food was not tasty and unpalatable instantly quieted down.

They are not fools. Rao Tiexiong has the aura of having stepped half a step into the Half-Step God King realm without any concealment. If a big shot like the Grand Elder does not take action, who can beat him?

"Who said it wasn't tasty? Stand up?" Rao Tiexiong's majestic voice echoed in the hall, and the whole space seemed to shake. He looked around, his eyes as big as copper bells, scanning every corner, as if trying to see through the person hiding in the dark.

"If it's not tasty, it's not tasty. Can't people say it? How can a chef not admit that the food he made is not tasty?" Liu Jun's eyes rolled and he spoke immediately. His voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard throughout the Imperial Kitchen. His words were full of provocation, and he didn't seem to be afraid of the aggressive Rao Tiexiong in front of him.
