In the next month, Chen Hu was no longer wasted, and completely recovered to the stage when he first went to school, not staying in the restaurant every day, familiarizing himself with various operations with the illusion world, practicing various recipes, or guarding the kitchen counter, watching other people's kitchen buckets every day, learning and absorbing all kinds of memories from it, that is called a waste of sleep and forgetting to eat, and it seems that he never worked so hard when he was in the college entrance examination.

Needless to say, Chen Hu's cooking skills have taken a step forward, reaching the level of LV11, completely breaking through the novice stage and stepping into the ranks of beginners.

If the profession of ghost kitchen is divided by level 10.

Then the day of the Master Chef exam came, and all the candidates and unrelated people who liked to watch the excitement came to the front of the venue, which is the location of the previous kitchen fight. However, by this time, the kitchen counter had been removed, and only a large square was left for everyone to use.

The floor is paved with bluestone slabs, and the surface of the slabs still has a dark watermark, apparently it has just been cleaned to prevent the crowd from stirring up dust when they step on it, affecting hygiene and the senses of the people around them.

Surrounded by a crowd of onlookers, too many of them to count, the chef bag who had come to take the exam was sandwiched in the center of the venue.

I really don't know if I don't know, I was shocked when I saw it, and the number of chefs who came to take the exam was no worse than the crowd of onlookers, they were all invisible at a glance, dense, and the tools they carried were as high as hundreds, which made people wonder, are there really so many master chefs?

In this regard, the chef association and the judges are also very skeptical, so in order to select the real qualified chefs, the organizer specially arranged a preliminary trial - soup tasting.

Naturally, it is not for you to taste the taste of the soup, analyze the ingredients used, and what ingredients are used, but to taste the spirit contained in the soup, that is, the heart of the chef, and then contend with it! Among them, the chef who breaks free from the soup the fastest is the one who has passed the preliminary selection.

Hearing this, the faces of all the candidates present were solemn, and their expressions became solemn.

After all, it's about whether they can reach the back threshold, and they can't afford not to be careful.

"Alright, everybody come up and get the soup. The judges who presided over the primary selection said to the candidates present.

Then the candidates took turns to come forward and try to receive soup bowls in groups of 10.

"Forehead ......"

"Ah!!h

"Humph!"

All kinds of performances were then presented from the faces of the ten candidates who drank the soup first, and they all had very painful looks, which made people very curious about what they had experienced.

It wasn't until a moment later, about four or five breaths, that one of the test takers broke free from the food illusion and stood in place gasping for air.

"Okay, you're over, here's your number plate. The presiding judge said, and then a staff member stepped forward and handed out a numbered plate with the number 1 written on it.

Obviously, only those who have obtained a numbered plate are eligible to move on to the next level.

The latter stretched out his hand to take it, looked at the soup with a complicated expression, opened his mouth, and turned to walk towards the open door of the venue at the back.

"You're qualified!"

Then, almost the next moment when the man received the number plate, another contestant broke free from the illusion and returned to reality.

"Okay, you're eliminated. ”

After that, after waiting for a few more seconds, a few breaths, the presiding judge announced in a loud voice.

At the same time, he clapped his hands and woke up the remaining candidates who were still immersed in the artistic conception of food with applause.

The action is smooth, and at a glance, you can tell that you have done it I don't know how many times.

Chen Hu and the other candidates were silent, and the look in their eyes became more and more heavy.

Ten breaths, at most ten breaths, if you don't succeed, you will be eliminated, and I don't know how many of these hundreds of candidates present will be left after this round of screening.

......

The screening proceeded quickly, and it didn't take long for Chen Hu and the other ten people to take their turn.

Chen Hu and the strange chefs around him stepped forward and took the bowl of soup from the staff that made them curious and worried......

Sniffed quietly, did not smell the obvious taste, this generally means that the soup has been cold, the taste is clean, but the feeling transmitted by the hand shows that this is not the case, the soup is still hot, although it is not the temperature just out of the pot, but it is the temperature that is most in line with the human body's tolerance, that is to say, even if the entrance will not feel the temperature of the soup, then according to the usual practice, such a soup even if the taste is drifting away, it will never have a taste at all.

So the question is, why can't you smell incense?

There is only one reason, and that is that the producer of this soup is not simple, and with some exquisite craftsmanship and technology, the flavor is completely sealed in the soup!

Yes, clear. Because he didn't know the specific situation, Chen Hu couldn't tell whether it was thick or light, so he could only evaluate it like this.

Then Chen Hu picked up the bowl and brought the soup to his mouth, and opened his mouth to send the soup into his mouth.

The expected clear taste exploded in his mouth, releasing a list but without losing the thick flavor, outlining a certain picture that was directly presented in Chen Hu's mind.

It was a pitch-black swamp surrounded by dense trees, flowers and plants, and many animals, and Chen Hu's legs somehow fell into it, gradually sinking down as the swamp devoured it.

"Is it to make people sink in that rich flavor forever......

"It's a pity, this is my world!"

Chen Hu's heart moved, and his strong spirit exploded violently, causing his body to swell and grow rapidly in the swamp, transforming into a terrifying giant that stood tall in the sky, directly ignoring the influence of the swamp on him.

Then, with both hands and feet, he tore apart the branches and vines that wanted to be entwined like living snakes, and uprooted the surrounding trees, completely destroying this delicious fantasy that made people sink in.

Immediately, Chen Hu's gaze changed, and he reappeared on the face of the presiding master of ceremonies.

"You're qualified. The host said lightly.

did not have any special performance because of Chen Hu's detachment, so people could not know from his face whether his performance was good or not.

Of course, it doesn't matter whether it's good or not, because he has already passed the first hurdle and qualified to enter the second round of the test, and he doesn't have to wait for the final judgment like the rest of the candidates.

Chen Hu took the number plate handed by the staff - 47 and strode into the center of the venue.

In an instant, an extremely large hall appeared in his eyes.

The space area is quite vast, there are three or four hundred square meters just by visual inspection, there are four desks in a row, dozens of desks are placed vertically, there are pots, boards, spoons and pans on the desks, but there are no spices and knives and ingredients.

On each side of the venue, there are long wooden shelves with a variety of fresh ingredients, animals, poultry and spices for the chefs to take the exam.

Directly in front of the meeting was a high platform with a long table covered with red covers, and five high-backed chairs were quietly placed behind them, waiting for their owners to arrive.
