“That’s enough.”

Lin Qi waved his hand dismissively and slowly walked to the front of the crowd, raising his head and puffing out his chest.

“Don’t tell me that everyone thinks that this bowl of Night Light’s Billow is just an ordinary clear soup?”

“If it’s not clear soup, could there be treasure inside?”

“That’s right!”

Lin Qi took the opportunity to say, “There really is treasure inside!”

Then, he turned to Jin Lingling and said, “If I’m correct, you should be a fire mage, right?”

Jin Lingling nodded. “Yes, I am a fire mage, but I have a limited understanding of magic, so I have been stuck at the lowest level.”

“Now, try using your magic again!”

As Lin Qi’s voice echoed throughout the stage, Jin Lingling was a little curious. She immediately drew her magic from within her body, and in an instant, she found something unbelievable.

“I...”

“What do you feel?”

His voice was not loud, but it could be heard loud and clear by everyone on the stage and in the audience.

“My Night Light’s Billow is not only delicious, but it’s also a soup that can increase one’s magic level!”

Hearing that, everyone’s expression changed and they felt bewildered. One by one, they scrambled to ask, “Is... Is this true?”

“Of course, my...”

Just as Lin Qi was about to create a second bowl of soup from the system, he suddenly realized that there was only... Only one bowl of soup left.

“Huh?”

Lin Qi’s face twisted. He scratched his head and thought to himself, ‘Oh no, I forgot that I only had a little bit of night light grass. Now, I don’t even have the ingredients to make a second bowl.’

However, before Lin Qi could finish his sentence, the mages immediately asked Lin Qi to make them a bowl.

Lin Qi was starting to feel awkward. He had forgotten that there were not enough ingredients.

At that moment, he was left with a difficult choice. There was only one bowl of soup left. Who should he give it to?

While he was hesitating, he noticed Yu Meng’s expectant but silent expression. He immediately had an idea.

“Alright, alright. Everyone, this bowl of soup is very troublesome to make, and it requires a lot of ingredients. So, I can only make one bowl for today. If you want some, contact me in the future!”

Just based on his words, the participants instantly looked at him in a different light. Jin Lingling and the manager could not help but admire Young Master Lin.

After the competition had ended, Lin Qi naturally became the focus of everyone’s attention. There were people who wanted to get close to him at all costs. After all, that dish that could increase one’s magic level was extremely rare in their world.

At that moment, even Chen Lin, who had been provoked by Lin Qi, was thinking of how to get his hands on a bowl of Night Light’s Billow.

After a while, Lin Qi finally returned to his room with a tired body.

He had exhausted himself half to death today, but he had achieved his goal. Once he returned to the New Moon Forest to collect more night light grass, he would be able to mass-produce the Night Light’s Billow.

That way, the mages, and swordsmen would keep coming to him to buy it. Even if the price was lower than its actual worth, he was still making money. It was better than selling sweet potatoes every day.

Just as Lin Qi was about to fall asleep, there was a knock on his door.

“Who is it? It’s so late!”

Lin Qi slowly walked over and opened the door. The person who was behind the door was Lewis, who was smiling cheekily.

Looking at him like that, there must be something fishy going on.

“You... What are you doing here? It’s so late.”

“Hehe, Lin Qi, no, Young Master Lin.”

Lewis walked in with a smile on his face. He said to Lin Qi, “I made a lot of mistakes before. Please forgive me. After all, we are both participants from New Moon City!”

“So what?” Lin Qi said coldly as he was in a bad mood.

“Hahaha, you know, we are all people who want to pass the trial together. Why don’t you make me a Night Light’s Billow and make my level rise to that of a grand swordmaster!”

“Oh? Didn’t you mention that you were already a grand swordmaster?”

Lewis instantly lowered his head and smiled bashfully. “About that... Actually, I’m not a grand swordmaster. Those were all lies spread by my family. I’m only at the level of a swordsman. After training at home for more than half a year, I still can’t break through to the level of a grand swordmaster. So, I want your help!”

“My help...”

Lin Qi tapped his chin, and a cunning look appeared on his face.

“It’s not impossible to help you. The Night Light’s Billow can indeed increase your rank. However, my Night Light’s Billow is not an ordinary dish, so I can’t give it to you for free, right?”

Hearing that, Lewis’s expression changed, and he slowly took out his money bag.

“Young Master Lin, can you give me a good price?”

Lin Qi lowered his head and looked at Lewis’s money bag. He had some money, but it did not add up to 100 gold coins.

However, he only had one bowl of soup left. It would be a waste to give it to Lewis.

“Nope. Not interested!”

Lin Qi immediately rejected Lewis and found an excuse. “You don’t have enough money. How about this...”

“I heard that the Leonard family is a hunting family. Your ancestors must have gathered a lot of rare magic essence, right?”

“That...” Lewis started to feel a little awkward.

Lin Qi continued, “If you can give me magic essence in exchange, I will consider it!”

“What? Magic essence? You’d need to kill rare-level demonic beasts for that!”

“I don’t care about that. The price is obvious!”

“You!”

Lewis was a little angry. He had a smile on his face earlier, but at that moment, he looked down and his eyes were full of frustration. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m

“Lin Qi, you are only a chef now. If it weren’t for Yu Meng and me, you would have been killed by those demonic beasts!”

Lewis became angrier and angrier. “Let me tell you, without Yu Meng and I, you are nothing. But without you, Yu Meng and I can still pass the trial!”

Since Lewis acted that way, it was obvious that he was going to part ways with Lin Qi.

However, Lin Qi would not give in to his words. Naturally, he had confidence now.

Confidence came from strength. As long as one had strength, they would have confidence. Even if he was looked down upon by others, he would not feel aggrieved.

“Both of you are going to leave me?”

“Hmph, of course!”

“Have you considered Yu Meng’s opinion?”

Lewis smiled lightly. “Do I even have to ask?”

After saying that, Lewis slowly turned around. Suddenly, Lin Qi noticed a person standing behind him. 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

It was Yu Meng.

Yu Meng had obviously heard the conversation. Originally, she wanted to discuss the Night Light’s Billow with Lin Qi.

She had not expected that Lin Qi was so greedy that he even wanted the magic essence of rare demonic beasts.

That annoyed her. She took a deep breath and said, “Lin Qi, since you have so much money now, you don’t have to follow us anymore!”

Lewis rolled his eyes at Lin Qi and said, “See? I didn’t even need to ask!”

“Lewis, let’s go. The city lord will announce the mission when he comes back tomorrow!”
