Everyone is well, well!
Chen Shu smiled and nodded, appearing extremely amiable.
He put his arm around Zhang Dali's shoulder and said, "Let me tell you, anyone who opposes Dali is opposing me, Chen Shu, the ferocious bandit of Nanjiang!"
Nanjiang ferocious bandit.
University students on campus whispered, taking note of this name.
Although Chen Shu was famous in Nancang Province, he was not well-known in the capital. Coupled with the fact that they were all university students, almost no one paid attention to middle school affairs.
"Chen Pi!"
Zhang Dali turned to look, his eyes filled with emotion.
Chen Shu smiled and then continued, "Of course, Beast Tamers of Black Iron rank and above can ignore my words."
"???"
Zhang Dali's mouth twitched. As expected, it was brotherly affection.
"Stop the nonsense!"
Fang Si patted Chen Shu's head, and the three of them walked and talked towards the experimental building of the Culinary University.
"Today, I'll cook personally!"
Zhang Dali led the two to his exclusive laboratory—well, it was actually a small kitchen.
Half an hour later,
Plates of ferocious beast meat were served, exuding an intoxicating aroma that made one's mouth water.
Zhang Dali's culinary skills were undeniable; they were absolutely top-notch.
Chen Shu took out three bottles of Erguotou, and the three of them drank together.
Fang Si raised his glass and smiled, saying, "From now on, the three of us will be in the capital, and we can gather every day!"
The three of them drained their glasses, their faces filled with smiles.
Chen Shu chuckled and said, "That's right, Xiao Xing and Lao Xie will also come to the capital for university!"
"They're all coming?"
Zhang Dali exclaimed, "That makes sense. The resources at Capital University are abundant, and the number of spatial rifts alone is incomparable to other cities."
If spatial rifts are not suppressed, they are potential crises.
If they can all be defended, it means a large amount of beast-taming resources.
"It seems my Nanjiang ferocious bandit is destined to make a name for himself in the capital!"
Chen Shu grinned, anticipation in his eyes.
Nanjiang City was too small; it wasn't enough for him to cause trouble.
The key was that even if he caused a big stir, it wouldn't spread nationwide.
But the capital was different. As the capital, any incident would definitely be known nationwide.
After a few rounds of drinks, the three friends, reunited after a long time, naturally engaged in lively conversation and laughter.
Chen Shu picked up a piece of ferocious beast meat with his chopsticks and said, "By the way, speaking of contract spirit food recipes, Dali, can you make one for me too?"
Zhang Dali's mouth opened slightly, his face showing surprise. "When did we talk about recipes?"
"Can you stop forcing your way into the conversation?"
"Weren't we just talking about Xiao Xing and Lao Xie?"
Chen Shu coughed and said calmly, "Don't dwell on the details!"
Zhang Dali shook his head and asked, "What rank of recipe do you want?"
"There are ranks?"
Chen Shu raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course, the highest grade."
For him, a perfectionist, his potion cultivation was always super perfect, so he naturally wouldn't use low-grade recipes.
"This..."
Zhang Dali scratched his head, looking a bit troubled. "I've just enrolled, and what I've concocted isn't called a recipe; it's called feed. It can only satisfy contract spirits."
Different types and ranks of contract spirits have different daily diets.
If a top-tier culinary master crafts a special recipe for them, long-term consumption can significantly boost their strength.
"I can only ask my mentor to do it, but my mentor only values geniuses."
Zhang Dali added, "If it fails, I can ask senior Lin for help. She can concoct slightly inferior recipes."
"Only values geniuses?"
Chen Shu smiled and said, "Aren't you already reading out my ID number?"
"Heh heh."
The two looked over in unison, with expressions of disdain. They had never seen anyone so shameless!
The three chatted about their respective experiences. No matter how long they were apart, their relationship remained unchanged.
The next morning,
Zhang Dali took Chen Shu to his mentor's office.
"You want me to help you concoct a recipe?"
A middle-aged woman frowned, looking Chen Shu up and down.
As a professor at the Capital Culinary University, Cheng Qing only concocted recipes for the strong, and at exorbitant prices.
The middle-aged woman shook her head, a hint of displeasure in her eyes, and said, "Go back. Helping that girl from Huaxia University with a recipe was already an exception."
As soon as she finished speaking, options appeared before Chen Shu.
[Option 1: Take out a urea bag, put it directly on her head, and force her with violence! Completion Reward: A pair of eternally incorruptible burial clothes.]
[Option 2: Reason with her, appeal to her emotions, and display your astonishing eloquence! Completion Reward: Skill 'Flame Blast' +1.]
[Option 3: Conquer her with your contract spirit! Completion Reward: Skill 'Lightning Strike' +1.]
Chen Shu was slightly stunned and immediately discarded the first option.
Although he was a little interested in the reward, coffins and tombstones, and burial clothes seemed to complete the set.
He finally set his sights on the third option. 'Lightning Strike' was a reward he received for agreeing to Fang Si's invitation to the spatial rift.
Zhang Dali pleaded, "Teacher, Chen Shu is also from Huaxia University. Please help us."
Professor Cheng Qing shook her head and said directly, "Huaxia University recruits five hundred combat-type Beast Tamers every year. If I were to concoct recipes for all of them, I'd be overwhelmed!"
At that moment, a figure pounced forward.
"Awooo!"
"What the hell is that?!"
Professor Cheng Qing startled, almost falling to the ground.
A husky was bouncing around, appearing incredibly lively.
"Professor, my contract spirit is very talented!"
Chen Shu said, deciding to persuade her with his contract spirit.
Cheng Qing maintained a distance, looking at him with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty. "Contract spirit?! Is it an elemental beast?"
Her brow furrowed, and she suddenly recalled. "Why would I concoct a recipe for a D-rank contract spirit? If it were SS-rank, I might help."
Chen Shu said, "Teacher, it's different."
"It is different. This one is more foolish than ordinary elemental beasts. I'm starting to suspect this thing is just a husky from Blue Star!"
Professor Cheng Qing kept sizing up the husky.
Her expression suddenly changed, and she exclaimed, "Don't bite my books!"
The husky, as if sensing the disdain, directly leaped onto the desk and snatched a book.
"Awooo!"
The husky looked smug, its intelligent eyes filled with excitement.
Seeing her approach, it shook its head and threw the book several meters away.
Cheng Qing rubbed her forehead and said, "Please leave! Otherwise, my recipe today will be dog meat!"
She looked again and saw another husky biting her book.
"Awooo!"
The two huskies barked one after another, constantly throwing books back and forth, their faces filled with excitement.
Indeed, there's more joy with foolish huskies.
