Chapter 271: Delicacy Conference
The next day, the Winter Agricultural Festival.
“Are you hungry?” Wang Che asked the little caterpillar.
In order to have a good meal today, the little caterpillar had not eaten since last night.
Of course, with a soul pet’s physique, it was fine to eat less.
The little caterpillar was full of energy.
It was probably because it had already dreamed of countless delicacies last night.
In addition, it thought that it could eat a lot of delicious food today and was full of enthusiasm.
Charge! Charge!
The little caterpillar, who had already put on its clothes, rushed out.
In comparison, the Magnetic Sword was much calmer.
Wang Che took out the combat clothes that the Silkworm Fashion Company had customized for him.
The current combat clothes had already fused with many modern colors, far from the combat clothes of the ancient era.
It was mainly dark green in color. Its robe was ancient-looking. It was tied at the waist and had a complicated pattern on the inside.
In Wang Che’s opinion, this combat uniform was more like an ancient costume seen in dramas.
It was very thick and heavier than usual.
There were some beast teeth embedded in it. The patterns were some ordinary ancient soul beast patterns.
“I’m quite handsome.”
Wang Che nodded slightly and looked in the mirror.
With the battery scabbard on his back and his long hair, he looked like a swordsman who had walked out of an ancient painting.
It had a unique aura.
He walked out and arrived outside the villa. Wang Che could see that many students had also changed into special combat clothes.
Compared to Wang Che’s custom-made combat clothes, there was a certain difference in style and workmanship.
After all, Wang Che’s combat clothes… were made of the little caterpillar’s threads!
“Holy f*ck, so handsome!” When they saw Wang Che come out, Kong Shijin and the others looked over. As a man, Fatty Kong could not help but cry out.
The other female students also blushed.
It was indeed handsome.
To modern people, if it was not tailor-made or if it was not good-looking, it would actually look out of place.
Even if modern combat clothes had been modified many times, humans who were used to modern clothes were not very used to this cultural attire that was similar to the ancient era.
Of course, it was fine as long as it looked familiar.
For example, Kong Shijin’s combat clothes were a capable long robe. There was a band on his head, making him look a little different.
Coupled with his fat stature, the combat clothes he wore should not be cheap, but they did not fit him very well.
It was quite a sight.
In comparison, some female students’ combat clothes were more beautiful and valiant.
This was because the female students’ combat clothes were all in the style of combat skirts.
It was a one-piece combat skirt. The short skirt only covered the top of the knee, revealing a portion of the snow-white thigh. Below the knee was a pair of long combat boots of various colors.
The shoulder had a vambrace structure. It was light silver in color like armor and was filled with heroic spirit.
For example, Yun Feimo was tall. When she wore this battle dress, her aura was actually very compatible. Her appearance had increased by a level.
Other than her, the other female students also chose the boys’ combat clothes. They looked like they were disguised as men, but it did not look strange.
It was probably the first time they wore such clothes. Other than a small number of students who were more suitable because of their looks and temperament, most of them were still very uncomfortable.
However, after taking a few more glances and adapting, the strangeness would gradually turn into amazement.
“Student Wang, with this outfit and this aura, I suspect that you’re an ancestor from the ancient era.”
Yun Feimo laughed, “There’s nothing strange about it! It’s incompatible with us!”
“Actually, it’s mainly because of the Magnetic Sword.” Wang Che smiled and said, “If you don’t believe me, I’ll put the Magnetic Sword down and hang the little caterpillar on me.”
As he spoke, Wang Che took out the Magnetic Sword and hung the little caterpillar on his back.
Magnetic Sword: “…”
The little caterpillar: “?”
As expected, after the Magnetic Sword was gone, a little caterpillar hung on Wang Che’s shoulder.
The aura of the combat clothes changed.
“Ssss!”
The little caterpillar shouted behind Wang Che.
‘I’m not an accessory!’
It changed into a dark-skinned little caterpillar. When it called out, the two little fangs by its mouth trembled.
It did not look fierce, but it was a little silly.
Everyone laughed.
The group smiled as they walked out of the villa group and arrived at the River Capital Stadium.
The atmosphere in the stadium during the Winter Agricultural Festival was definitely not inferior to any competition!
70% of the Contract Soul Masters who came to participate in the Winter Agricultural Festival were students.
The remaining 30% were Contract Soul Masters who had already graduated from university but had not passed the vocation test and entered society to work.
Some came from major corporations, some from various clubs, and some from various Dao Arenas…
There were many of them.
Wang Che brought the little caterpillar along and attracted countless gazes.
First, he verified various information on the North River Continent soul pet battle app. He showed a QR code at the entrance of the stadium and scanned it before entering.
“There’s still half an hour until the Delicacy Conference begins. Students, you can check the rules and booth navigation on the app!”
The staff at the entrance of the gymnasium reminded.
The River Capital Stadium was not smaller than the Glory Capital Stadium.
It was divided into several levels.
Other than the last Heavenly Gate Fire Seed project, the other major projects were completed in the stadium.
‘I’ll eat more today and try to refine more than five wisps of Hundred Refinements soul power in one go.’ Wang Che pondered as he waited.
This was a great opportunity to cultivate.
As Shen Mingluan had said, the food that could participate in the Delicacy Conference was not simple.
Of course, it was also a form of promotion.
The chefs behind the various booths naturally would not take out some ordinary food.
They were definitely the best of the best.
After using it, it was extremely beneficial to cultivation.
At the last school opening ceremony, Wang Che ate some of the food cooked by Shen Mingluan. At night, he took the time to condense a Hundred Refinements soul power.
The effect was excellent.
It took a lot of time and materials to cook these meals. The price was also extremely expensive.
After all, it was not ordinary food.
Such a free opportunity to taste it was basically only available at the Winter Agricultural Festival.
A month had passed since the Thunder Soul Earth’s competition trial. Wang Che currently only had 35 wisps of Hundred Refinements soul power.
In the past four weeks, he had cultivated five Hundred Refinements soul power.
It was not slow or fast.
Especially in the next two weeks, after the little caterpillar began to refine snacks, it needed to practice.
If Wang Che did not guide it, the probability of the little caterpillar failing was not small.
Therefore, it consumed a lot of soul plants. In order to not let the stock of the little caterpillar’s main food run out, Wang Che sometimes had to personally use the Life Hand to quickly mature a batch. Using the Life Hand to mature would consume a lot of soul power and reduce the speed of cultivation.
In the next two weeks, Wang Che only cultivated two wisps of Hundred Refinements soul power.
However, it was exchanged for the little caterpillar’s extremely high proficiency.
Wang Che felt that it was worth it.
“When I have 40 wisps of Hundred Refinements soul power, there will be four spiritual fields on the first level, and my soul power will be close to Level 20. I’ll plant some soul plants that contain soul power in the fourth field and refine some medicinal pills for my cultivation…”
Wang Che opened the app and browsed through the content of the Delicacy Conference.
The rules of the Delicacy Conference were very simple. As long as one signed up to participate, they could eat the various meals displayed at the conference.
As long as you could eat, you could continue eating.
Most importantly, he had to obtain the Delicacy Badge and last until the end of the afternoon.
On the first day, there was only eating.
Then, they would directly calculate the number of badges an individual had obtained in the app. The referee would carefully count the number of badges and unanimously choose the Glutton King. That would be the person who ate the most.
The rewards were very rich. There were extraordinary rewards, special food recipes, and unique soul devices.
Wang Che did not care much about the reward.
It was enough as long as he ate enough.
The hall on the first floor was sealed.
Before the door opened, many hungry contestants and soul pets were waiting to be fed.
The door to the hall did not open, but an alluring fragrance kept coming from inside.
There was also a strong soul power aura mixed in, and the surrounding soul power concentration began to increase.
The first floor of the gymnasium was very large. With the number of food booths Wang Che saw on the app, there were at least a hundred.
The little caterpillar’s stomach growled as it smelled the fragrance.
Before long, two staff members arrived at the door with smiles on their faces.
“Fellow Contract Soul Masters, it’s eight o’clock sharp in the war zone. From now until five in the afternoon, after entering the hall, you can eat your fill!”
“However, remember the rules. Don’t eat too much. Just try your best. Don’t force yourself!”
With that, the two staff opened the door.
In an instant, a rich fragrance accompanied by a faint light came from inside.
Countless Contract Soul Masters entered the hall on the first floor in an orderly manner.
“Don’t push, don’t push. Believe me, you can’t eat much!”
“Go away, I want to go to the Food God Club’s booth!”
“Just go to the Forest Academy and line up. I hope I can eat something hot…”
“F*ck, it’s so dazzling. There’s delicious food everywhere. I’m clearly very hungry, but I don’t know what to eat…”
“It smells so good! That’s the Phoenix Marrow Crunch from Heavenly Fragrance Company!”
“Everyone, listen to me. It’s best to eat digestible appetizer food first! For example, our South Mountain Academy’s Cloud Pea Soup!”
…
Contract Soul Masters were limited to participate in the Winter Agricultural Festival.
But even so, there were still many people.
In the huge exhibition hall, countless booths were arranged neatly on one side of the hall.
As exhibitors, they seemed to be doing it for free, but they could actually obtain huge benefits.
If they could release outstanding food at the Winter Agricultural Festival and make a name for themselves, they could make and sell it in the future.
At that time, word of mouth would spread and become popular.
Almost every booth was quickly lined up.
Wang Che also looked at the Forest Academy’s booth.
The queue was the longest.
Although the Forest Academy was not famous at other times, everyone knew about it during the Winter Agricultural Festival.
In the booth, there were teachers and many third and fourth-year students who were busy cooking. They were still making various delicious meals.
“Yes. It’s indeed the most fundamental thing for humans.”
“I’ll find you something to eat first.”
Wang Che looked at the green caterpillar.
The little caterpillar: ( * ▽ *)
Its eyes immediately lit up.
