Bab 344: 283. There are three days left until the Elite Competition of the Senior Soul Master Academies across the continent is held [Major Chapter]_1
Bringing the Bluesilver Emperor here, I did indeed fulfill the task designated on the Mission Card, with the reward quality increased by two levels.
This truly earned Emperor Xueye a fortune, as Lin Yi didn't feel that completing the task this time was particularly difficult.
The System panel promptly displayed the selected reward.
Lin Yi frowned, and as he was about to speak, his mouth hung open, frozen in place.
How... how should I even start?
[500 servings of steaming hot stinky tofu]
Stinky tofu?!
Lin Yi looked at Emperor Xueye's expectant expression, hesitated several times, but failed to utter a single word.
He remembered the first Golden Junior reward was received by Qian Renxue, consisting of a full set of hundred-thousand-year soul bones.
Since then, Lin Yi had always associated the initial impression of a Golden Junior reward with a full set of hundred-thousand-year soul bones.
So...
A full set of hundred-thousand-year soul bones = 500 servings of steaming hot stinky tofu
?!
The conclusion reached in his mind inevitably made Lin Yi contemplative.
Ultimately, he could only conclude that the rewards from the same pool were tiered, as had been verified during previous treasure-dropping processes.
In the same reward pool, the greater the corresponding damage, the better the quality of the reward.
And for rewards like this, elevated because of a Prop Card, he guessed that the System would pick some odds and ends from the reward pool to make up the numbers.
Lin Yi cleared his throat and said, "Your Golden Junior reward is 500 servings of—"
"500 servings?!"
Emperor Xueye excitedly repeated the number.
"Stinky tofu."
"What...?"
Seeing Emperor Xueye's suddenly befuddled expression, Lin Yi actually felt a bit like laughing.
He waved his hand in front of him, and with a flash of light, the reward items neatly appeared on the platform.
Five hundred boxes of stinky tofu, each with six pieces.
If this were on Blue Planet, it probably would be worth five thousand Yuan.
Emperor Xueye looked at the piled "dark cuisine" on the platform, first frozen, then like seeing something frightening, he quickly covered his nose and stumbled backward.
Everyone else also scrunched up their faces and pinched their noses.
Oh my, what is this?!
Emperor Xueye pointed to the stinky tofu, uncertain and surprised, and asked, "Is this... is this food? Why does it stink so much?"
Lin Yi was used to such delicacies from the Blue Planet, so he didn't find it stinky, rather it was nostalgic.
He chuckled, stood up, took a serving of stinky tofu, and asked Emperor Xueye, "May I have one of your rewards?"
"Ah?"
Emperor Xueye was dumbfounded. Is this even edible?
Without waiting for his consent, Lin Yi plucked a piece with chopsticks.
"Senior, don't eat it!"
Bi Bidong immediately covered her nose, very anxiously attempting to stop him.
If Senior Lin Yi eats this thing, can he still initiate a kiss...?
At this critical moment, this concern was what fluttered through Bi Bidong's mind.
Lin Yi turned his head to look at Bi Bidong, did not stop, and began to chew it in his mouth.
Hmm, the familiar formula, the same old taste.
After finishing one piece, Lin Yi picked up another, memories of his days on Blue Planet flooding his mind.
He faintly remembered his friends, especially the girls, loving this stuff, always lining up in a long queue to buy a serving each time they went out.
As if not getting a serving meant the trip was incomplete.
The crowd watched, dumbfounded, their understanding utterly outstripped.
For those who had tasted all kinds of exquisite flavors, the small snacks full of life from Blue Planet might provide a completely different experience.
Since this was a reward from the System, and a Golden Junior at that, Lin Yi thought for a moment and decided he should redeem the reputation of stinky tofu in this otherworldly world!
He carried his serving towards Bi Bidong.
Senior, what are you about to do...?
Bi Bidong watched dumbly as Lin Yi approached her.
"Come, let me feed you a piece."
Lin Yi picked another piece with the used chopstick and blew on it habitually.
Bi Bidong's beautiful eyes stared at him, her cheeks flushing.
Chopsticks used by the Senior, leftover food from the Senior, food blown on by the Senior... Under normal circumstances, Bi Bidong wouldn't hesitate to take a bite!
But this dark, sludgy thing...
"I'll do it!"
Watching anxiously, Qian Renxue couldn't wait any longer.
Bi Bidong! You can't just stand by an empty pit and not poop!
Food that Senior Lin Yi himself has verified, what are you afraid of!
And it's even food that Senior Lin Yi has gently blown on; no matter how bad it tastes, it becomes sweet and delightful due to the lovely significance he's given it.
Seeing Qian Renxue approaching, Bi Bidong suddenly looked like a little dog guarding its food, without hesitation, she bit into it!
Qian Renxue froze... so much for love.
The salty and fragrant juice exploded in her mouth, the crisp texture of stinky tofu stimulating her taste buds, complemented by the rich secret sauce, which made Bi Bidong's expression change during the chewing process from surprised to delighted.
"Hmm~ Hmm~ Huh? Huh?? This... it doesn't taste stinky at all?"
Bi Bidong said uncertainly, then naturally opened her mouth for more, "Ah—"
Appearing ready for another feeding.
Lin Yi was startled and picked up another piece with the chopsticks, bringing it to her mouth.
But Bi Bidong suddenly closed her mouth, her brows slightly furrowed, and said somewhat discontentedly, "Senior, it's hot..."
"..."
Lin Yi then blew on it.
"Bi Bidong! Don't go too far!"
Unable to bear it any longer, Qian Renxue yelled, but was quickly pulled aside by Thousand Waves.
