<h4>Chapter 269: Apprentice Chef, Little Caterpir</h4>


    “It’s time to train,” Wang Che said. “Today, the Maic Sword showed its power. Don’t you feel threatened?”


    The little caterpir nodded. It indeed felt very threatened!


    “Ssss!”


    The little caterpir became serious.


    It had to protect its big brother’s status.


    “Then cut down on your rest time in the future,” Wang Che said, “What do you think about cutting an hour of break?”


    The green caterpir: ヽ(#`Д ?)ノ


    It immediately rejected!


    Wang Che smiled.


    “How about this? I’ll teach you how to refine snacks during the reduced rest time.”


    Wang Che said, “Think about it. If you can refine snacks and food yourself, can’t you refine whatever you want to eat in the future?”


    “You can refine whatever vor you want.”


    “Isn’t it very good?”


    This time, the little caterpir fell into deep thought.


    This seemed to be a very good suggestion!


    Thinking of eating, the little caterpir felt that it could still ept this condition.


    When it could refine snacks in the future, it would not need to obtain snacks from Wang Che.


    Gradually, the little caterpir’s eyes lit up.


    “Moreover, you can produce mes yourself and have the ability to refine it.”


    Wang Che said, “You don’t need to rely on anyone. Isn’t it very good to be a self-reliant little caterpir?”


    At this point, Wang Che walked over and quietly said to the green caterpir,


    “When your proficiency is high, I’ll teach you how to make snacks for Little Sword.”


    “When you learn how to refine the snacks of Little Sword, you will have the right to be its staple food. It will admire you more and more, and your big brother’s position will be more and more stable.”


    “Ssss!” The little caterpir patted the ground with its tail and shouted.


    ‘I agree!’


    “Yes, you’re a good student.” Wang Che nodded in satisfaction.


    It seemed that in the future, he could also rx in terms of refining snacks and take more time to cultivate.


    “Then from today onwards, I’ll teach you how to refine snacks.”


    Snacks were the simplest. The staple food involved the mixing of many crops.


    Medicinal pills involved different medicinal properties. It was a long learning process.


    To the little caterpir, it could not seed overnight.


    “Ssss!”


    The little caterpir shouted excitedly.


    It could refine whatever it wanted to eat.


    It smelled freedom!


    “Very good. In the refinement process, we need to train your control over the me Awakening state. It’s not just the mes produced by using the Raging me Strike like before.”


    Wang Che took out a pot and ced it aside, “First of all, what vor leaf snacks do you want to eat the most?”


    The little caterpir thought for a moment and shouted.


    It had just condensed fire soul essence and felt a little too hot.


    It wanted to eat some cool fragrant snacks instead.


    “For fragrant snacks, we’ll use the Water Orchid and blend it with a light-vored crop, Tree Fruit.”


    Wang Che brought the little caterpir to the two farms outside.


    Snacks did not need too many crops to match or estimate too much nutrition.


    It only needed pure life force.


    Although it could not increase the little caterpir’s soul power and growth, it could increase the little caterpir’s life force.


    The Water Orchid was a low-level soul nt with water energy. It could be used to make staple food and snacks.


    The staple food required more than ten crops to add various nutrients.


    The snacks only needed to be neutralized with the tree fruits.


    There were only two crops, so the refinement was naturally very simple.


    When he arrived at the farm, Wang Che asked the little caterpir to pluck a few fragrant tree fruits with its thread.


    Of course, the little caterpir would not add poison to the thread.


    After plucking it, Wang Che took out a Water Orchid from the first level.


    “You don’t have ws yet. It’s rather difficult to use the refinement technique like me.”


    Wang Che said, “So, let’s use the initial refinement method: Boil.”


    He was now refining snacks, staple food, medicinal pills, and spirit medicine.


    He could just use profound refinement techniques to match the little caterpir’s mes.


    After all, it had soul power…


    The little caterpir currently did not have hands. After entering the First Stage True Dragon Form, it only grew two small ws.


    Therefore, it was rather difficult to use the refinement technique.


    It was enough to boil it.


    “Alright, let’s begin now. Pay attention to your control over fire and soul power.”


    Wang Che ced the pot in the air, “Use the thread to wrap around the pot, then use the Force of Nature to add clean water into the pot. Then, use the Object Control Technique to separate a thread to wrap around the Water Orchid. Take it slowly step by step.”


    “Let’s boil the Water Orchid through the high temperature and turn it into juice.”


    The little caterpir worked seriously.


    Every step was not very difficult because they were separated.


    The pot was a special soul device that was not very expensive.


    Many students in the agriculture and nt industries learned how to cook food from this pot.


    It was extremely resistant to high temperatures and could also guide the heat very well, slowly melting the soul nt in the pot.


    “Alright, enter the me Awakening state now. Spit out the mes and slowly heat it up. You need to have a very strong control over this state.”


    The little caterpir did as Wang Che said.


    In the past, it was always the little caterpir who stood to the side and cast mes.


    Wang Che was the one who controlled the temperature of the mes.


    It watched from the side.


    Now, it was personally controlling it.


    Wang Che only watched from the side.


    Looking at the little caterpir’s serious expression, Wang Che nodded slightly.


    In less than half an hour, with Wang Che’s asional pointers, the little caterpir was about to finish refining.


    “Alright, now that the fruit has also melted, the temperature will decrease. Then, control the thread of the worm and stir it slightly so that your thick juice can fuse.”


    Soul nts were different from crops.


    Most soul nts were natural and had fragrance.


    Coupled with the fact that it was produced in a spiritual field, the quality was extremely high.


    There was no need to add too many random condiments and modify it.


    The crops nted in the farms were also very outstanding and of high quality.


    For example, the fruit that Wang Che had chosen had an alluring fragrance after being boiled at a high temperature.


    There was no need for ordinary condiments like the fragrance essence, fruit acid, and so on.


    To soul pets, too many additives would make them dislike it.


    He only needed to perfectly fuse the two liquids together.


    Of course, the difficulty was perfection.


    Seeing that it was about time, Wang Che took out a leaf sharpener.


    If there was a refinement method, it could directly gather theva into the shape of a leaf.


    The little caterpir started refining pills from scratch… to refine snacks, it naturally needed some grinding equipment to help.


    “Increase the mes to evaporate the liquid.”


    Wang Che said, “Then, pour it into the grinding equipment separately. Use the Vortex Soul Skill to wrap the grinding equipment and quickly cool it down. It can be eaten in ten minutes.”


    Actually, soul nts and tree fruits could be used directly.


    However, the absorption efficiency was very low. It needed to be refined into other food or medicine to increase the use of soul nts.


    The little caterpir sniffed the fragrance and its eyes flickered. It immediately poured the food into the dozen leaf molds.


    Then, it used the Vortex soul skill to wrap the grinding device and quickly reduce the temperature.


    Ten minutester, the temperature of the grinding equipment gradually decreased.


    It lifted the small leaf mold. It was its first time refining it with Wang Che’s guidance.


    The refinement process of the little caterpir was rather smooth.


    There were a few times when it could not control the temperature in the me Awakening state.


    The juice was almost ruined.


    Fortunately, with Wang Che’s guidance, it was saved in time.


    Wang Che also walked over and sniffed.


    In terms of color and fragrance, it was average.


    The important thing was, it could be eaten.


    After all, this was the first time it had been refined.


    Actually, it was already very good to be able to do this.


    For the first time, most students failed in refining soul pet snacks.


    It was mainly because the little caterpir had been used by him to refine various food and medicinal pills for a long time.


    After looking at it for a long time, it roughly understood the steps.


    The little caterpir poured out the first leaf snack and handed it to Wang Che.


    ‘Eat, eat!’


    Then, it poured out the second leaf and handed it to the Maic Sword watching from the side.


    It let out a cry.


    ‘Little Sword, eat too, don’t stand on ceremony!’


    “…” Maic Sword.


    ‘I’m not a bug. I don’t eat leaves.’


    Wang Che ate a piece.


    The taste was okay. The water attribute energy loss in the Water Orchid was not too serious, not even half.


    A portion of the water energy was locked by the zing fire and the juice of the tree fruits.


    The texture was rather soft and emitted the unique fragrance of the Water Orchid.


    The efficiency of these two crops, especially the Water Orchid, was only about 30%…


    It barely reached the passing grade.


    “Not bad!” Wang Che encouraged.


    “Ssss!”


    The little caterpir was very excited. This was the first snack it had refined.


    It was actually much worse than the snacks Wang Che had refined.


    However, the little caterpir ate with relish!


    It finished most of the remaining snacks in one go andy down to rest in satisfaction.


    Wang Che narrowed his eyes and walked over.


    “Do you feel good?”


    “Ssss!” The little caterpir burped.


    “Let’s refine less next time,” Wang Che said, “We refined too much this time. If we refine too much, it won’t be easy for you to control. Refine as much as you want in the future. How about that?”


    The little caterpir was very satisfied and nodded without thinking too much.


    From then on, the little caterpir officially became an apprentice chef.


    Every day, it would rest and think about refining snacks.


    Honestly speaking…


    Be it farming or cooking, the little caterpir personally nted the crops and personally harvested them before refining them into snacks.


    This greatly increased the little caterpir’s participation.


    Its interest in farming also increased.


    After all, as long as crops were nted, it could cook snacks on its own.


    Although the snacks refined were not as delicious as Wang Che’s, the feeling of harvest and satisfaction was iparable.


    It had one less hour of rest, but it could refine snacks every day.


    This made the little caterpir feel that it was not bad.


    Under Wang Che’s guidance, the little caterpir’s control over the mes had increased greatly. The snacks it refined were also getting better and better.


    Moreover, it would cook as much as it ate.


    Wang Che only needed to grasp the quantity of the raw materials.


    There was no possibility of wasting it.


    “When you can make the snacks glow slightly, we’ll begin to make the staple food.”


    The snacks glowed slightly, and it was not a lie. The higher the efficiency, the more life force the snacks produced would have, forming a special luster!


    This was also the basic standard to determine the quality of the food.


    For example, the food that Shen Mingluan had given the new students at the school opening ceremony was glowing slightly. This was the reason.


    ording to Wang Che’s calctions, after the little caterpir’s proficiency in refining snacks was about sufficient, it would have almost finished the first batch of staple food.


    After umting a little more staple food, the little caterpir could refine its own staple food in the future.


    It would slowly learn how to refine medicinal pills after the standard of the staple food increased.


    Step by step, Wang Che nned for the little caterpir’s future.


    Just like that, two weeks gradually passed…
