Chapter 95 Three Small Barbecues a Day

"Smoked and grilled barbecue!"

Striking the pose of the Statue of Liberty with its torch, Oscar loudly recited his soul skill slogan.

The Fire Giant Sequoia's spirit rings shone brightly, and with the gathering of spirit power, a small handful of fragrant barbecue appeared in Oscar's hand.

"Yours, Principal; Teacher Zhao's; Xiao Sun's; and mine."

They divided the chicken wings into portions, Flander watched the grease dripping from the grilled chicken wings, Zhao Wuji got a pig's trotter, Ouyang Sun got a beef skewer, and Oscar got a piece of pork belly.

"Principal, the spirit skill that the Fire Giant Sequoia spirit ring gave me is barbecue. The range of ingredients seems to be all the creatures that were buried in the previous fire, both plants and animals."

As Oscar explained, he stuffed a piece of grilled pork belly into his mouth and chewed it with gusto.

"Besides the most basic soul power recovery, it seems that there are additional effects depending on the type of barbecue. Grilled meat can enhance physical fitness, while grilled vegetables can heal injuries."

It seems there's also some amazing barbecue, but I can't completely control it right now; the types of barbecue seem to be entirely random.

"I see."

As he spoke, Flander took a bite of a chicken wing. The cooking time was perfect; the skin was crispy, the meat was tender and juicy, and the mouth was filled with the aroma of meat, highlighting the original flavor of the ingredients.

In other words, it tasted good, but it didn't have much flavor; there was no cumin or chili.

After devouring the chicken wings in a few bites, Flander seemed to understand something. His soul power was recovering, and his speed also seemed to have increased.

However, due to the vast difference in their soul power, Oscar's improvement was not very noticeable to Flander, especially since he only had a string of chicken wings.

"Little Ao, your pig's trotters are a bit old."

Zhao Wuji tore at the pig's trotter skin, almost ripping off the rubbery texture, making a crunching sound as he ate it.

"Ahem, well, Teacher Zhao, aside from the types of food, my first soul skill, barbecue, seems to be related to the heat. The better the heat, the better the quality. However, I still can't fully control the heat."

Oscar shifted his gaze somewhat guiltily; he wasn't targeting Teacher Zhao specifically, really.

Ouyang Sun chewed on the tender beef, enjoying his meal immensely.

"Cooking temperature, types of ingredients, range of ingredients —"

Flander smiled broadly as he surveyed the hunting range of the giant firewood.

"Little Ao, you've really acquired an amazing soul skill."

Once you fully master this first soul skill, and your grilling skills reach the top level for skewers, and you can clearly distinguish the different types of ingredients, it will be more than just a soul skill.

This is a top-tier martial soul, the God of Food martial soul.

"However, your second soul skill does require finding seasonings; barbecue without seasonings is really not tasty at all."

""

Flander said sincerely, which made Oscar smile and scratch his head.

"When we get back to school, we'll do a count to see how many kinds of barbecue your first soul skill can summon, and how many kinds of soul beasts this Fire Giant Fir has preyed on."

"yes!"

Oscar readily agreed, now understanding the importance of system knowledge.

"But now—" Flander looked at Ouyang Sun, "it's time for Sun's first spirit ring, we need to find him the most suitable one."

"Of course."

Oscar hooked his arm around Ouyang Sun's shoulder, who looked like a bean sprout compared to his current self, and laughed so hard that his front teeth were showing.

"I will definitely help Xiao Sun!"

"Okay, but please change your clothes first."

"oh oh."

Oscar hurried over, eager to change out of his ill-fitting clothes.

"Let's get some rest tonight and set off again tomorrow."

Indestructible – for Ouyang Sun, whose character is modeled after Sun Wukong, this should be the most suitable basic ability for him.

However, for the first spirit ring, focusing on basic defense requires a hundred-year-old spirit beast, and there aren't many of those.

When it comes to defensive capabilities, the first things that come to mind for Flander in the Douluo series are the four-eyed scaled beast and the golden hawksbill turtle.

However, the former is far away in the Sunset Forest and is a thousand-year-old soul beast; the latter, although strong in defense, is not an indestructible combat type and is also a rare auspicious beast, protected by extremely powerful hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts all around.

Wandering through the great forest, three days passed in the blink of an eye. Flander found many soul beasts that were comparable to the indestructible Vajra, but they all seemed to fall short.

It didn't have the same stunning effect as the previous giant fiery sequoia that immediately impressed you upon first meeting.

Ouyang Sun's initial anticipation gradually turned into a subtle, unconscious sense of guilt, as if he felt he had caused trouble for the principal—

bother.

However, this is just a normal situation for the operation of searching for suitable soul beasts to hunt for soul rings.

That day, guided by the wind, Flander led his group to the foot of a small hill, or more accurately, a deep pit at the foot of the hill.

The aura emanating from the cave instantly invigorated Flander; he seemed to sense an extraordinary presence within.

"Old Zhao, get ready to go down into the cave. There seems to be some good stuff in there." Frande patted Ouyang Sun's head, his tone full of surprise. "Maybe it'll suit little Sun."

"Damn it, we finally found it!"

Zhao Wuji swore, but he couldn't hide his excitement. His fifth spirit ring lit up, ready to affect the cave.

Turn this place over—

Snapped!

Flander grabbed Zhao Wuji's hand, stopping him from moving.

"This hole is quite large. Be careful not to make too much noise, or it might trigger a beast tide."

"A beast tide? It's just a small hole, it can't be that bad, can it?" Zhao Wuji muttered, but still put his hand down.

"A cunning rabbit has three burrows; who knows where these burrows lead or which place they connect to?"

As Flander spoke, he waved his hand, and wind elements surged into the cave, compressing the soil and expanding the cave passage.

"Walk."

The group went deep underground. The soil beneath their feet was compacted by the wind and was not loose, making it very stable to walk on.

The group subtly released their soul power, illuminating the increasingly dark cave as they went deeper. However, once their eyes adjusted to the darkness, they could still see somewhat clearly.

The air in the cave wasn't stuffy, just a bit stuffy, which meant that it was connected to another place, making air exchange possible.

Flander continued to emanate a breeze, causing even soul beasts with a hundred or so years of cultivation to faint before they could get close, ensuring a smooth journey.

As Flander walked, he became increasingly amazed by the vast cave, which seemed to have once been inhabited by some extraordinary spirit beast.

Unfortunately, this time their target was not a ten-thousand-year or even a hundred-thousand-year soul beast.

Closer and closer, until after turning another corner in the winding cave, Flander suddenly spotted his target, reached out and twisted, and a whirlwind gathered.

An invisible tornado appeared, began to sweep and engulf everything, drawing everything to surround it.

Zhao Wuji also mobilized his soul power to prevent any accidents from happening.

The next instant, the group heard a rapid, shrill chirping sound in their ears, followed by a lean figure being thrown in front of them.

Even in complete darkness, Ouyang Sun could clearly see that the soul beast was radiating a golden glow, with sharp snouts and fangs, looking grotesque and ferocious.

A six-hundred-year-old soul beast, the Golden Iron-Eating Beast.
