[Extra update for Alliance Leader, Mountain Full of Pine Nuts]

In the arena, the concentrated flames and frost burst into brilliant red and blue lights, drowning out all other illumination in the competitive landscape and becoming the sole vision in everyone’s sight.

The aftermath of the collision, even more intense than before, morphed into a sweeping gale that surged across the entire arena, even showing signs of spreading beyond the grounds. However, this attempted spread was quickly neutralized by an invisible force at the edge of the arena.

Very quickly, it appeared that the battle between the red and blue lights had been decided. The blue light began to constantly push towards Dan Bao’s direction.

‘Full Firepower’ was powerful, but it still seemed somewhat lacking in the face of the ‘Coldflow Storm’ formed by the combination of the two battle skills.

However, the blue light’s advancement wasn’t swift. Before it could envelop Dan Bao’s figure, the glow faded due to the exhaustion of its attacking power and eventually dissipated.

Dan Bao let go of its protective shield of thought power, allowing the frost condensed on the outer shell to scatter onto the ground.

It looked again at Little Glutinous Rice on the opposite side, its eyes filled with a burning desire for battle.

Such a powerful opponent!

“Thought Wave, attack!”

Qin Lang’s voice echoed in Dan Bao’s mind.

An ivory halo rippled around it, transforming into an invisible yet tangible wave of thought power, quickly hurtling towards Little Glutinous Rice.

“Whoo-”

An unprovoked sound of wind tearing through the air whistled towards Little Glutinous Rice.

“Dodge quickly!” Du Weiwei shouted.

However, Little Glutinous Rice, which had just launched a combined battle skill, seemed a bit depleted and reacted a beat slower.

“Boom!”

Accompanied by a dull sound, Little Glutinous Rice crashed onto the ground.

“Countdown to five!” Jiang Gang quickly stepped forward, shouting, “Five…four…three…two…one…”

Until Jiang Gang counted to one, Little Glutinous Rice still hadn’t managed to fly up from the ground.

“Beep

A whistle sounded and Jiang Gang gave the final verdict of this spiritual battle.

“In this spirit battle, Qin Lang wins!”

“Dudu!”

Dan Bao wagged its tail happily, its face carrying a hint of relief.

The combined battle skill used by Little Glutinous Rice was indeed formidable!

It could feel that if it had let that strike land on itself, it might have been the one to lose its combat power in the end.

Having already obtained two battle skills, would it also have combined battle skills in the future…

While Dan Bao was absorbing the Star Power of the victor, it began to daydream.

“Cha-cha-”

They won!

Spicy quickly flew towards the arena, her face still carrying a hint of excitement.

When the two powerful attacks collided and the Cold Flow Storm took the upper hand, her heart was on the edge.

Fortunately, Dan Bao was the one to win in the end.

Looking at the lingering worry on her buddy’s face, Dan Bao’s own face showed a touch of appreciation.

“Gulu?”

Were you worried about me?

“Cha?!”

Spicy’s expression briefly froze before she vehemently turned her head aside.

(“v“—)

“Cha-cha!”

You must have seen wrong!

Seeing the rapidly reddening bubble of light above Spicy’s head, Dan Bao’s face displayed a knowing look.

On the other side, Du Weiwei who had recalled Little Glutinous Rice back into the Star Vein to rest, looked a little strange.

She looked at Qin Lang who had walked up to her, opened her mouth and couldn’t help but ask, “Your first Food Spirit… Your flavor value wouldn’t have already reached 200 points, would it?”

She had noticed during their battle.

The two food spirits’ attack collision, the one at a disadvantage was always Little Glutinous Rice.

The first time Cold Breath confronted Full Firepower, it failed to completely extinguish it.

The second time, the Gale Sweep faced Thought Waves and failed to break the thought power shield.

The final combined battle skill was supposed to eclipse the single battle skill, but under Dan Bao’s full firepower bundle, it barely managed to gain an advantage.

She and Little Glutinous Rice, who spent more time focusing on spiritual battles, had a more commanding grasp of their battle skills than Dan Bao.

So the only explanation is that Dan Bao has a much higher combat power value than Little Glutinous Rice, indicating a significant disparity between their abilities.

The combat power value is jointly determined by the food spirit’s taste value and the spiritual power value.

Since both of them are spirit chefs with two-star veins open, there shouldn’t be any difference in spiritual power. Therefore, the only difference could be in the taste value.

This…

Qin Lang scratched his head.

He suddenly remembered that he had not had time to test the taste value of Dan Bao after the star upgrade, and he hadn’t tested Spicy’s taste value either.

“That should be it.” Jiang Gang folded his arms and laughed, “the combined battle skill is not something a mundane battle skill can compete with.”

With his vast experience as a spiritual battle judge, the only thing that could cause this scenario is the significant taste value disparity between the two.

Seeing Qin Lang’s expression, Jiang Gang quickly guessed that he hadn’t conducted the taste value test.

“There is a specialized instrument for taste testing in the lounge over there, why don’t you give it a shot?” he suggested.

“Sure.” Qin Lang nodded, beckoning to Dan Bao and Spicy who were huddled together, “Come! Let’s go and test your taste values!”

“Gurgle!”

Taste value test!

Dan Bao suddenly became fully engrossed, its eyes filled with anticipation.

The last time it tested its taste value was when it was at one star.

At that time, its taste value was 100 points.

According to Qin Lang, the maximum taste value would increase to 200 points when upgrading from one star to two stars.

So now, it could potentially have a taste value of 200 points.

But what the actual number is…

Of course, there is only one way to find out. A taste test!

Different from Dan Bao’s excitement, Spicy tilted its head and wore a puzzled expression on its face after hearing the taste value test proposal.

“Cha baa?”

What is taste value?

Being new to this world, Spicy had many questions.

Instinctively, it looked toward Dan Bao.

Seeing Dan Bao’s reaction, it was apparent that Dan Bao knew what taste value was.

Perhaps it ought to ask Dan Bao?

But before Spicy could decide, Dan Bao had already cozied up, eagerly explaining the concept to Spicy.

“Gurgle doo doo!”

Let me tell you what a taste value is…

Listening to Dan Bao’s explanation, Spicy had an epiphany, its face also filling with anticipation.

Ah, so there’s something called the combat power value!

Already keenly interested in spiritual battles, it quickly developed a curiosity about its own taste value.

“Cha ka-”

I should thank you then-

With Dan Bao’s expectant gaze, Spicy shyly turned its head away.

Looking at the glowing red bubble on top of its head, Dan Bao, giggling, flew towards Qin Lang with Spicy in tow.

“I also want to have my taste value tested!” declared Qi Xiaoyu as she quickly walked up to the stage and came over to Qin Lang and Du Weiwei. “When I just got my food spirit, I measured it once. Maybe it has increased since?”

“Let’s go, we’ll do it together.” Du Weiwei replied with a nod.

The three of them followed Jiang Gang into a lounge next to the spiritual battlefields.

Soon, Dan Bao, which had entered the testing area first, took flight, and its taste value was displayed on the screen nearby.

[200]

As expected.

Seeing the result, Du Weiwei seemed unsurprised.

With her status as the winner of the city-level cooking competition, this seemed appropriate.
