Chapter 170: Chapter 170: Before Departure

“This roasted duck is really delicious!”

Zhao Chen gets more and more skilled at rolling pancakes. He can quickly roll up a stuffed pancake in just a few moves. After rolling up the roasted duck, he directly puts it into his mouth, chewing and enjoying it, his hands not stopping.

By the time he finishes one pancake, he is able to roll two more.

One pancake is for his own mouth to keep it constantly filled, while the other is shoved into Yangyang’s waiting, wide-open mouth.

When it comes to eating, he’s really dedicated.

“Phew— ”

Qi Xiaoyu rubs her belly on the side, opening her mouth languidly, “Qin Lang, 1 feel like I’ve put on weight after our trip around Bai Lu Mountain City!”

Despite her seemingly pitiful condition, the happiness on her face indicates her satisfaction with the food she had enjoyed today.

At her side, Du Weiwei has already eaten her fill, but she has not stopped rolling roasted duck for her food spirit, as this too is a process of deepening mutual feelings.

“Are we going back to Dongxia City tomorrow?” While she is rolling roasted duck for the food spirit, she asks.

“I have no objections.” Qin Lang nods.

Although he doesn’t have any relatives in Dongxia City, everything he’s familiar with is there.

After his mother died in his past life, he developed a habit of returning home to check on things after spending some time outside.

Even in this new world, he doesn’t want to give up this habit.

“I don’t have any objections either.” Zhao Chen speaks vaguely with his mouth full of roasted duck.

During these past days while Qin Lang was preparing for the ranking competition, Zhao Chen hasn’t been idle either.

He has visited, one after another, those spirit chefs who showed considerable strength in the selection competition, but failed to advance. In the short span of three days, he has participated in dozens of spirit battles.

No one would expect that an adolescent could be so persistent.

Having achieved his goal of confronting spirit chefs from various places in the Tianhua State, and participating in the city-level youth training competition with his buddies, Zhao Chen is content with their trip to Bai Lu Mountain City.

“Then it’s settled.” Qi Xiaoyu, resting her head on her hand, grins, “Shall we go shopping tonight for mementoes to take home?”

“Let’s go!” Zhao Chen and Du Weiwei respond immediately.

“I’ll also go and take a look.” Qin Lang nods.

He has already obtained the best souvenir from this trip.

That is the Deer Spirit Badge and the medal from the youth training competition which he earned by passing the test.

However, buying some souvenirs for his neighbors is a good idea.

Maybe he could also prepare a gift for Uncle Luo Hui and share his travel experience with him?

With this thought, Qin Lang’s face shows a trace of a smile.

“Ding Ding— ”

The sudden sound of his phone ringing and the slight vibration of the phone in his pocket interrupt Qin Lang’s musings.

Glancing at the caller ID, he raises his eyebrows.

The caller is Zhu Quan.

At the end of the youth training competition, Zhu Quan had taken the initiative to exchange contact details with him. Now that he is calling, Qin Lang wonders what it might be about.

“Hello, this is Qin Lang.”

“Did you hear?” Zhu Quan’s dignified voice comes over the phone, “The Star Hunters successfully stole the Starstone.”

Qin Lang:”???”

“Wasn’t it already fully absorbed?” He couldn’t help asking in a low voice.

“The Star Hunters stole the Starstone after it had absorbed all the Star Power.” Zhu Quan’s voice carried a hint of helplessness, “It seems this is the first time the Star Hunters have done such a thing, everybody was caught off guard.” An empty Starstone?

A thoughtful look crosses Qin Lang’s face.

He recalls the intelligence Zhu Quan had shared before.

The Star Hunter Organization steals Starstones, not for the Star Power contained within them, but to research how to replicate the Starstones.

Perhaps their research has made new progress, so now even an empty Starstone is enough for their research?

He wonders what course of action the Association will take in response to this situation.

“Why are you telling me this?”

Qin Lang’s attention quickly shifts to Zhu Quan.

“I merely overheard it when 1 went to receive my qualification certificate for the provincial youth training competition. 1 thought I’d share it with you, but it’s not the main reason 1 called.” Zhu Quan’s voice carries a hint of levity, “I want to challenge you to a spirit battle. What do you think?”

“A spirit battle?”

Qin Lang’s voice involuntarily rises slightly, attracting the inquisitive gazes of Zhao Chen and the others.

“Correct.” On the other end of the phone, Zhu Quan’s face is poised for battle, “After spending three years in deep mountain training, this is the first time I’ve participated in a spirit battle related competition.”

“I had hoped to spar with more powerful spirit chefs, to hone myself and become stronger. I didn’t expect that the youth training competition wouldn’t bring any improvement at all!”

Qin Lang:”…”

Although Zhu Quan is telling the truth, why does Qin Lang feel like hitting someone?

No big deal, Qin Lang has only been a spirit chef for one month.

Qin Lang silently reassures himself.

Zhu Quan is still speaking on the other end of the phone.

“However, you gave me a surprise.” Zhu Quan speaks slowly, “Your other food spirit should have reached two-stars as well, right?”

“Added to the new combined battle skill that your previous two-star food spirit has comprehended, I assume your strength now surpasses that when we clashed in the morning.”

“So, I want to challenge you to prove this!”

Truly a zealot for battle.

Qin Lang inwardly complains, and instinctively glances at Zhao Chen.

These two are very similar.

“Alright, but I’ve already purchased train tickets to leave Bai Lu Mountain City tomorrow afternoon…”

“We can have the battle tomorrow morning!”

Before Qin Lang can finish speaking, Zhu Quan cuts in.

“Then that’s settled.” Qin Lang’s eyes reveal a hint of battle spirit.

The two quickly agree on a specific time, and the call ends shortly afterward.

Zhao Chen and the others, who had been listening in, quickly gather around.

“A spirit battle with Zhu Quan?” Du Weiwei shows interest.

“Yes.” Qin Lang nods, looking at Dan Bao and Spicy, both showing eagerness.

Though they don’t say it, heart-to-heart Qin Lang knows that they are not satisfied with their third place in the youth training competition.

The primary reason he agreed to this spirit battle is to give the two little ones another chance to prove themselves.

Even though it cannot change the determined ranks of the youth training competition, if they can perform better than before, it would be a significant boost for the two little ones.

“Tomorrow morning? Then let’s go and watch it together!” Qi Xiaoyu is inexplicably excited at the prospect of some excitement.

“Count me in.” Zhao Chen nods seriously.

This battle is not to be missed.

Qin Lang shakes his head with an amused smile.

“Let’s go shopping for souvenirs first.”

The following morning, at the Spirit Chef Association Spirit Battle Grounds in Bai Lu Mountain City.

“Five seconds to start!”

With the referee’s command, the staring contest between Qin Lang and Zhu Quan from their respective designated areas seems to spark electrical currents in the space between them.

Since Zhu Quan initiated the Spirit Battle, Qin Lang had the right to choose the mode of the battle.

Wherever you fall, you should get back up.

Thus his choice was a 2V2 fight.

As the countdown progresses, the two nearly simultaneously deploy their Star Spirit Protection.

“Beep— ”

With the echo of the sharp whistle, the second battle between Qin Lang and Zhu Quan begins!
