“No, no, no! I didn’t intend to get a good ranking anyway.” Mu Song scratched her head. She had some culinary talent, but that wasn’t her ambition. Hence, in the previous competitions, she only cared about passing. When Liao Ning said that she wanted to be second, she naturally had to cooperate with her idol. “If you don’t mind, team up with me. Let’s work hard to get second place! ”

Soon, it was time for the Myriad Feast Competition.

The first stage of the competition was for the live-streamers to go to the interstellar space’s rural branch on Planet Mu to choose their ingredients. This time, without Zhu Fei’s interference, Liao Ning and Mu Song quickly chose the ingredients.

The organizers of this competition requested the live-streamers to form teams. Each team had to launch two different delicacies. The cooking process wouldn’t be live-streamed this time, and the names of the dishes of each team had to be highly confidential. The organizers would only show the process and name of the dishes after the hunters had scored the delicacies.

As soon as this news was released, the netizens had mixed opinions about the organizers’ actions.

[What?! Then I’ll have to wait for a long time!]

[This competition is much stricter than the last one.]

[Could it be that the higher-ups of the Alliance are really paying attention to this food competition?]

[I think this food competition is no longer just hype. The officials are really prepared to take ancient delicacies seriously!]

[If you’re telling the truth, I’ll be so excited!]

Although the netizens were discussing excitedly, this didn’t affect Liao Ning at all.

This time, the organizers prepared a room for every team of live-streamers.

There was a well-equipped kitchen inside, and professionals were recording.

After Liao Ning brought Mu Song into the room, she started to get busy. She was preparing to cook hotpot this time. Hotpot was more suitable for gatherings, since it took much less time and effort than cooking other dishes.

Liao Ning had made hotpot with tomato soup base for Liao Nai last time. This time, she planned to make a mushroom soup base. Because the rules stipulated that each group had to make two delicacies this time, Liao Ning planned to make creme brülée.

However, because she wanted to control her score, she planned to write down the formula and let Mu Song make the pudding.

“Is that really possible, Liao Ning?” Mu Song couldn’t believe that Liao Ning could give the formula to her so easily. Formulas were the lifeblood of food live-streamers and wouldn’t be revealed so easily.

“Of course. We’re partners now, so I trust you.” “Liao Ning, you’re really too kind. I promise to complete the mission!” After assigning the tasks, the two of them got busy.

The raw materials for the red pot were chili, pepper, star anise, cinnamon leaves, cinnamon, and several other spices. After Liao Ning washed the spices and dried them, she poured oil into the pot and waited for the oil to heat up. Then, she placed the dried spices into the fire to boil them. After that, she fished out the spices that had obvious color changes. The base oil was ready.

After the base oil was made, she poured the oil into the big bone soup that had been brewed in advance and continued to boil it for 15 minutes before the pot was finally ready.

Next, it was time to make the mushroom soup. The mushrooms were placed in a boiling pot and slowly simmered. Twenty minutes later, wolfberries were added to the hotpot. Then, the light mushroom soup that nourished the stomach was ready.

While Liao Ning was preparing the soup base, Mu Song, who was in charge of making dessert pudding, had also prepared the pudding.

Next, it was time to place the ingredients on the plate. Mu Song placed the ingredients on the plate while Liao Ning wrote down the boiling time for each ingredient on a small card and placed them on the plate corresponding to the ingredients.

Liao Ning took out the Mandarin Duck Pot that she had custom-made in advance and poured the red oil soup and mushroom soup into it. More than ten red and white Taiji Eight Trigrams appeared in the pot.

“It smells so good!” As Mu Song sniffed the rich fragrance in the air, she couldn’t help but swallow.

“Alright, I’m ready. Let’s go back and eat!” Liao Ning liked this girl very much.

Mu Song pointed at the hotpot. “This?”

“Of course!”

“Then let’s hurry back!”

Mu Song pulled Liao Ning up and ran, ignoring the staff who stayed behind to prepare the dishes.

As Liao Ning was pulled away by her, she turned around and said to the staff, “Thank you for your hard work. The dishes and the remaining soup in the pot were specifically reserved for you. Remember to enjoy them!”

The staff was flattered. They didn’t expect Liao Ning to be so considerate and quickly expressed their gratitude.

As the staff thanked them, Liao Ning and Mu Song returned to the hotel. After Liao Ning opened the door, she smelled the rich fragrance of the red oil pot. A tall man in an apron was busy in the kitchen, and the wolf cub was helping him..
