When this scene unfolded, netizens watching the live stream on the internet platform immediately went crazy.

"Wow, the beautiful judge is starting to act on a whim, my goodness, she herself admitted that the Datong River soup could be considered perfect, yet she only gave it 8 points, this is definitely a fix."

"Hahaha, the beautiful judge is so pretty that even her capriciousness is attractive."

"Darn, isn't this beautiful judge clearly helping Baihua Tower and Yuqing Hall? Otherwise, with that first sentence, Datong River would have definitely won!"

"Exactly, the beautiful judge is being way too capricious!"

"Pfft, if she's pretty, even her whims are pretty. We'd still like her even if she gave zero points."

"Uh... Miss Chu Qing is an internationally renowned gourmet, a special contributor to multiple culinary magazines, and her scoring now, I guess, is because she is angry."

"But there's no reason, she said it was perfect herself and still gave it 8 points, isn't that clearly unfair treatment?"

"Absolutely, I don't think she's fit to be a judge."

The online viewers commented in a barrage of messages.

The host on site felt embarrassed. He intended to continue the interview, but after she finished speaking, the Beautiful Demon Fox not only stopped eating, but also did not say a word, and even gave Shen Qiang a disdainful look when he wasn't paying attention.

Shen Qiang laughed.

Then the host announced, "The combined score for team Datong River is 48 points, tying with Baihua Tower for first place temporarily. However, our question still remains unanswered. Team leader Shen, what kind of meat did you use in this soup?"

Upon hearing this, the attention of everyone both inside and outside the competition venue immediately focused on Shen Qiang.

Just what kind of meat was used, this question was crucial to understanding why Miss Chu Qing, the Beautiful Demon Fox, only gave Shen Qiang 8 points. Therefore, everyone not only paid close attention to Shen Qiang but also pricked up their ears.

Shen Qiang smiled faintly and then seriously said, "It's mid-September now, the end of summer and the beginning of autumn. In Huaxia, there's a custom called 'tacking on the autumn fat,' meaning that autumn has arrived and it's time for people to nourish themselves. I came here to take part in the culinary competition, I came here as a chef."

"The first problem I considered was, for whom am I cooking, what is their health status, and how can I use food to bring their health to the best condition. Considering the age of the judges and their tiredness in the recent period, as well as the season, I personally think that to make their bodies healthy and full of energy, in terms of diet, the main things that need to be addressed are nourishing yin and strengthening yang."

"That's why the meat I chose for the previous soup is 'San Bian'."

At these words, the audience at the venue burst into laughter.

Looking at the four male judges, all with ruddy, spirited faces, and then at Chu Qing, the Beautiful Demon Fox, with a face that said 'speak whatever, I'm not listening,' the crowd laughed heartily.

As they laughed.

The online live broadcast platform's message feed exploded instantly.

"Ahahaha, no wonder the pretty judge only gave 8 points, I'm dying of laughter, 'San Bian' is just the reproductive organs of three male animals, right?"

"Hahahaha, making such a beautiful judge eat that, Shen Qiang is too evil, but I like it."

"I'm dying of laughter, no wonder the judge asked him what meat he used earlier and he didn't say, I bet she wouldn't touch it if he did say!"

"Hahahaha, exactly! Such an exotic dark cuisine should get zero points."

"Ahahaha, no wonder those old guys felt much younger after eating it and gave full marks, saying nothing else."

"You are what you eat. Looking at those old guys, this must be quite effective."

"Datong River, hurry up and open a branch, I want to order one of these for my other half."

"Ahaha, now I'm just curious, how did the beautiful judge know what meat Datong River used after just one sip of soup?"

"Uh... right, how did she know?"

"Sideways laugh, guess."

Everyone watching the live stream and at the venue was overjoyed.

And for middle-aged and elderly men, this dish definitely had an explosive appeal, especially after they saw how ruddy and spirited the four judges appeared post-meal. They all made up their minds to take a chance to try it at Datong River. If it was really effective, how could money be an issue?

The competition continued.

In the first round for the Red Case, Baihua Tower and Datong River tied for first with 48 points, leading Yuqing Hall.

As the Red Case second round began, Yuqing Hall's Hei Jin Abalone immediately scored a great result of 49 points.

The subsequent Baihua Tower's Yangtze River knife seemed lacking in punch and only scored 46 points.

Following that, Shen Qiang presented another medicinal meal, once again a soup.

This time, Shen Qiang took the initiative to explain that aside from using chicken fat broth, all other ingredients in the medicinal meal were purely vegetarian.

With Shen Qiang's reassurance.

The complexion of the Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing finally eased a bit.

Parting her lips gently, she took a sip of soup, and her beautiful eyes immediately lit up.

"The old broth is rich without being heavy; the ingredients are refreshing and palatable. Almost instantly, one can feel a warming nourishment. Full marks!"

"The taste isn't too strong because of the old broth presence, and pure vegetarian ingredients, yet they possess the texture that holds up to meat. After tasting, it soothes the restless mind. Full marks."

"To be honest, I personally prefer the previous medicinal dish from Datong River. As a middle-aged person, the stirring sensation made me feel very powerful, but after taking this soup, the restlessness lingers, yet it has diminished somewhat, so I don't like it as much and can only give 9 points!"

"This soup, indeed, as the other teachers said, isn't as exciting as the previous one. However, at the same time, I noticed some details. This medicinal food contains many ingredients for regulating qi and promoting beauty, such as Red Dates, Lycium, and Longan. More interestingly, I found Incense Wood, so now I'm pretty sure this medicinal meal should belong to the kind that regulates qi and calms the mind, so I give full marks."

"You've said everything I wanted to say. I'm also certain that this is a perfect medicinal meal, full marks, even though I'm still not clear about its specific effects."

As soon as the scores were out.

The host immediately got excited, "Congratulations to Datong River, once again scoring 49 points, tying with Yuqing Hall for first place. Now, please Team Leader Shen, tell us about the effects of this medicinal meal."

Shen Qiang smiled faintly and calmly stated, "This medicinal meal does indeed have the main effects, as mentioned by the judges - calming the mind and regulating qi. At the same time, it also has the effects of moistening and nourishing, as well as beautifying and keeping the complexion youthful. It's a delicacy I highly recommend to all ladies, one that should not be missed at any cost."
