After enjoying a delicious dinner, the trio each returned to their own rooms.

Whether it was Qin Lang who had endured Mr. Lu Dong’s trial in the afternoon, or Zhou Tianhao and Shen Qian who had explored Lanqiu City in the afternoon, all quickly fell asleep due to their fatigue.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the next morning.

The freshly showered Qin Lang, dressed in casual clothes, soon saw Zhou Tianhao sitting on the sofa, browsing information on his phone.

“Brother Zhou, you’re up.” Qin Lang greeted him warmly, then asked subconsciously, “Where’s Shen Qian?”

“I’m here!” Shen Qian popped her head out from the kitchen, grinning, “You’re the last one up, want to try the breakfast I made?”

“Sure.” Qin Lang naturally wouldn’t refuse Shen Qian’s offer to cook breakfast.

Soon, beautifully plated baked goods with a strong aroma appeared on the dining table.

“Try them, these are my specialties!” Shen Qian, having removed her apron, stood with her hands on her hips, a trace of pride in her eyes.

“Crunch— ” Qin Lang grabbed a piece of the crisp, cookie-like treat. After one bite, he nodded slightly, “It’s really delicious!”

“I like this!” Zhou Tianhao was holding something similar to a cream puff. The sweet cream inside provided a rich flavor with each bite.

Hearing the two men’s extravagant praises, Shen Qian became even more cheerful. She sat at the table and began to taste her own creations.

The food spirits weren’t idle either. They swiftly grabbed the desserts from the plate, quickly taking away half of them.

While having breakfast, the three of them chatted leisurely.

“Qin Lang, you’re going to sign up for the Youth Training Competition today, right?” Shen Qian looked at Qin Lang and asked.

“Yes.” Qin Lang nodded, “The registration for the Youth Training Competition ends tomorrow. I will go to the Lanqiu City Imperial Chef Association later to register and learn about other contestants.”

“Knowing both your enemy and yourself, you can fight a hundred battles without disaster.” Zhou Tianhao nodded approvingly, “You’re not weak, but even a lion uses its full strength when hunting a rabbit, so it’s a good thing to understand your opponents in advance.”

Qin Lang looked a bit bewildered.

Brother Zhou, you used two idioms in one sentence, are you studying for the graduate entrance exam?

“In that case, I should put in more effort too.” Shen Qian popped the last dessert into her mouth and stretched lazily, “I’m going to visit Mr. Jiang Guangchen today, wish me luck!”

“Go for it!” Zhou Tianhao was the first to voice his encouragement, and envy was evident on his face.

He only has a Second-Level Food Recommender Badge and is ineligible to visit this Second-Level Food Recommender of Lanqiu City.

Seeming to notice Zhou Tianhao’s feelings, Shen Qian patted him with a grin, “Brother Zhou, your day will come too.”

“You have to give it your all.” Qin Lang took a sip of hot milk, “After obtaining this Second-Level Food Recommender Badge, you’re only one badge away from participating in the Provincial-level Cooking Competition.”

“If that happens, the number of Second-Level Food Recommender Badges I have will catch up with yours!” Shen Qian looked at Qin Lang with a teasing smile.

“Mingjing Province and Tianhua State are not the same, there’s no comparison.” Qin Lang responded awkwardly. As expected, Shen Qian was still the competitive girl she used to be, with no change at all.

After breakfast, the trio left the hotel separately.

Qin Lang went to the Imperial Chef Association to register for the current Youth Training Competition, Shen Qian went to visit Mr. Jiang Guangchen, the Second-Level Food Recommender of Lanqiu City, and Zhou Tianhao continued to explore the local delicacies of Lanqiu City.

Before leaving, the three of them made a point of inspecting the mustard greens drying on the balcony.

After being dried overnight, the mustard greens had become wilted. They had lost a lot of moisture from the wind and sun, which greatly bothered Dan Bao, who was accustomed to keeping ingredients at their freshest. He felt as though his obsessive-compulsive disorder was acting up.

So, he decided not to look at the mustard greens for the next few days!

After leaving the hotel, Qin Lang hailed a taxi and headed directly to the Lanqiu City Imperial Chef Association.

As soon as he stepped into the association’s lobby, Qin Lang was about to ask the front desk employee where to register for the Youth Training Competition when he heard a familiar voice coming from not far behind him.

“Qin Lang! I knew you’d come!”

Qin Lang turned around instinctively, soon a smile spreading across his face, “Bear Battle, are you here to register too?”

It was none other than Bear Battle, the man who they had encountered in Lan Qiu Forest. However, the Lv Family Sisters were not present this time, he was alone.

“Exactly, I passed Mr. Cheng Kang’s test and got this Wumu Badge.” Bear Battle took out the badge and showed it to Qin Lang, “The Lv family sisters registered yesterday. I had a sleep-in and am registering today.”

“Since you’re here, I assume you must have gotten a Lanqiu City Spiritual Controller’s Badge, right?” Bear Battle looked curiously at Qin Lang, “Which one is it?”

“The Flame Heart Badge.” Qin Lang showed the badge he just received yesterday, which drew Bear Battle’s envy.

” What a pity, my food spirit doesn’t has nature-based combat skills related to flames.” Bear Battle shook his head helplessly, “Otherwise, I would definitely want to try for this badge that offers guidance after passing.”

“There will be opportunities in the future.” Qin Lang grinned, not letting Bear Battle know about the secret techniques.

If he has the fate to touch upon this in the future, he would naturally find out.

“Alright, let’s stop chatting. You look like you haven’t registered yet.” Bear Battle laughed heartily, “Come on, let’s register together!”

“Sure!” Qin Lang was unsure about howto register, and Bear Battle seemed to know his way around. It wouldn’t hurt to follow him.

“The registration desk for the previous Lanqiu City Youth Training Competition was at Counter 7.” Bear Battle explained while walking, “But as the end of the registration period is drawing closer and the number of people registering is decreasing, the registration desk has been moved to Counter 9.”

“Bear Battle, you haven’t registered before, how do you know?”

“The Lv family sisters told me when they registered yesterday.”

“I see.”

The two chatted briefly and soon arrived at the registration desk at Counter 9.

“Registering?” The staff member at the counter was a middle-aged man with a gloomy complexion. He took a glance at the two of them before scanning their Spirit Chef Badges.

Once the badges scanned, the experiences of the two were laid bare before the staff member.

“From out of town?” He glanced, and a clear look of disgust appeared on his face, “Overestimatingyour abilities!”

“You!” Bear Battle has a more fiery temper, and hearing a staff member say such things, he couldn’t keep his cool, “What do you mean by that?”

Qin Lang, standing next to him, didn’t say anything, but his face darkened.

He had been to many cities and met with garden staff characters from various city’s Spirit Chef Association, who were always friendly and didn’t discriminate against outsiders.

This was the first time he encountered a staff member with such a bad attitude.
