Seeing his confident face, Zhou Xingchu couldn't help recalling the dishes Gu Bai had made on his live stream, some of which were similar to the ancient earth dishes. Gu Bai had found an ancient ingredient called sweet potatoes as well.

Zhou Xingchu suddenly calmed down.

"Alright then. As long as you are right about 60 percent of the ingredients and spices of each dish, you will pass this assessment," said Zhou Xingchu.

Therefore, in the next minutes, the fans and the judges had experienced worried, surprised, shocked emotions before they admired him in the end.

"That's all my answers." Gu Bai reminded them that he had finished.

"Very good. Your answers about the main materials and spices... are completely correct. No mistakes, no omissions." Zhou Xingchu was so shocked to say the result smoothly.

He had known that Gu Bai was a talented chef who made great dishes, but he didn't expect him to be so brilliant to do this. Even he and his colleagues couldn't promise that they could be as good as him.

Gu Bai deserved his favor, yet he wasn't sure whether he was still qualified enough to be Gu Bai's master.

Gu Bai was shy when hearing such praises. After all, he took advantage of his past life on earth. Also, the other two dishes were quite simple. If the chefs used other ingredients he couldn't recognize, he wouldn't be as good as the chefs in this era.

"How did you know how to make the Meigan cai?" Bai Xu fixed his gaze on Gu Bai as he asked.

He wasn't surprised that Gu Bai could repeat how other dishes were made of, but he couldn't believe that Gu Bai knew how to make Meigan cai.

After all, Meigan cai wasn't something that could grow on the field but was made after many procedures. It was fair to say that Meigan cai itself was actually a new dish.

"I was fortunate to see it in a recipe," Gu Bai said.

He had planned to say that he read it in a book. Considering they might ask him what kind of book, he changed his answer.

People in this world would never ask anything related to the recipe, given it was the secret for the chefs to make sure of their position in this industry.

Besides, it was a good excuse for him to answer any dishes he had made or would make.

Most importantly, the Gu family did have a recipe that had been passed from generation to generation. Many ancient earth dishes were recorded inside it. The recipe Shen Liangxu had was a part of it. Although Gu Bai didn't know where the rest was, he could use the excuse at will.

[100 percent correct? Seriously? That's too much!]

[Although I can't believe it, the senior of the Chef Guild has just confirmed it. The man is so brilliant. Who is he anyway? Could he show his face?]

[In three minutes, I want all the information about this guy. He was so hot when he answered the steps. Does anyone have any idea who he is?]

[I want the answer, too. But he didn't show his face all the time. Does any of his fans recognize him?]

[He just answered the materials involved. Anyone with a sharp tone could do that. The point is whether he could make the five dishes on the spot. Otherwise, he will still fail to pass the test.]

[I have a hunch that he will make it. He could list the materials without writing them down. That means he might have made them before. I bet he can pass it.]

[Do you really know the rules or do you say this deliberately? Any dishes on the third assessment of the Four-Star Chef test should be newly created dishes that had never been released to the outside world. He couldn't make them before until someone had told him the dishes in advance.]

[Uh, I got what he is indicating.]

[Me, too. Although that's not possible, that's the most reasonable explanation.]

[That can't be true. There are only four seniors in the Chef Guild, and the president came here today as well. Are you saying that the president has colluded with the seniors to tell him the test content earlier? That's ridiculous.]

[Then how do you explain that he gave all the answers without thinking? Even the seniors can't answer so smoothly.]

[Maybe the man is more than excellent. Didn't you see how surprised the judges were? Besides, if he remembered all the answers in advance, would he be so stupid to repeat them without losing any detail?]

[I've wanted to say this a long time ago. The red meat is Braised Pork in Brown Sauce, right? I ate it on my idol's live stream and watched him make it. We tried it before. It was really delicious.]

[Who is your idol?]

[Bai Xiaobai, the champion in the Gourmet Contest.]

[Huh, I've seen this name on the live stream several times. Are you done piggybacking on the great popularity of this test? Is your anchor so great to make the dishes that the Chef Guild hasn't released yet? Why is he still an ordinary anchor if he knows so much?]

The fans had different attitudes toward Gu Bai's performance. Some questioned him, some admired him, and some condemned Bai Xiaobai and his fans badly.

No matter how doubtful the audience was, Gu Bai had passed the assessment to repeat the ingredients. Next, he would have to redo the five dishes.

The Chef Guild had provided him with all the ingredients needed, including Meigan cai.

The three ancient dishes were easy in Gu Bai's eyes, so he finished them first. Then he started to make the vegetarian dish and the dessert.

Most of the ingredients of the two dishes were those Gu Bai wasn't familiar with in the interstellar era, so it took him some time to make 60 percent of them.

The five judges inspected the dishes they had chosen separately.

Looking at the brown roasted meat, Yang Xu couldn't hide his appreciation for Gu Bai.

He took a bite of it. The salty and sweet taste combined with the tight meat was fat but not greasy. Even if it was the same as the one he had made, Gu Bai had made it 95% similar to the one he had made, which was a big surprise.

Yang Xun almost couldn't stop eating. Other judges couldn't help swallowing as they saw him like that.

"Mr. President, just taste some. We are still broadcasting the show," Zhou Xingchu reminded him.

As the seniors, they felt awkward eating the meat right away, but they did wish Yang Xu could leave some for them.

Yang Xun took five bites before he stopped eating, then he cleaned his beard which had been stained by the oil, shifting his gaze to other judges, especially the dishes in front of them.

Senior Du chose Double-Cooked Pork Slices. It was perfect and he didn't know where to start judging.

After tasting the Pork with Salted Vegetable, Bai Xu had changed his face. However, considering they were still on a show, he tried hard to adjust his facial expression.

"It's barely qualified," Bai Xu restrained himself from eating more but didn't comment more, saving his dignity as a senior.

Zhou Xingchu couldn't help rolling his eyes when the camera couldn't catch him and then tasted the dish in front of him. Later, he praised Gu Bai as much as he could.

He said so much that Gu Bai's face turned red.

"Very good. It's talented for you to make it after tasting it once. You are a promising man, and I look forward to your higher achievement." Senior Zheng looked at Gu Bai smilingly, feeling satisfied as well.

In the third round of the Four-Star Chef test, Gu Bai successfully passed it with an absolute high score. That left him with the last test, which was also the most troublesome one.

"That's all for today's test. We'll hold the fourth assessment tomorrow morning. You can go back and have a good rest first," Zhou Xingchu announced as they stopped the live stream, blocking the fans who asked desperately to try the dishes.

Although the live stream was closed, the viewers didn't stop discussing. They entered Facebook and other platforms for further discussion, feeling more interested in who the man was. They even analyzed all the possible candidates.

Among them, Shen Liangxu and Fang Weixuan had bigger chances. Some of their fans thought the same, so they continued the quarrel again and even led the fire to their idols.

Shen Liangxu V: Thank you for your support, my dear fans. I will work harder to make more delicious food in the future so that I won't disappoint you.

Fang Weixuan V: I'm not the contestant, not good enough yet, but I know who the man is. He is a brilliant chef and makes great dishes. He is also a handsome guy. You will surely love him if you meet him. That's all I can tell you. He doesn't want me to say more. Oops. 

Shen Liangxu and Fang Weixuan almost sent updates at the same time, which caused the fans to ask more and attracted more netizens' attention.
