Chapter 364: Chapter 363: Do You Need a Ticket?

Upon opening the information, the system first displayed his cooking skill data:

"[Evolution·Spice Inequality] (0/20): Once the signature skill of Spice Empress Mira, one of the Five Tiger Stars of the Dark Cuisine World, starting at blue quality, now at purple quality, with a potential upgrade to golden quality."

"Note: Allocating talent points/cooking skill evolution has a chance to comprehend the golden talent [Super Vision]."

Except for the additional "Evolution" prefix, this cooking skill data had not changed much compared to when he just learned it.

The key lay in the small annotation on the cooking skill!

Evolution, or upgrading the cooking skill level, provided a chance to grasp a golden talent!

And it was very obvious that allocating talent points to enhance the cooking skill level would grant only a negligible chance of obtaining a golden talent, almost impossible to imagine.

The ’evolution’ route would undoubtedly have a much higher probability!

Thump thump!

Xia Yu glanced at the data, clearly hearing the sound of his heart pounding in his body!

Bring it on, let’s hurt each other!

He shouted inwardly, staring at the information panel, focusing his gaze:

"Congratulations, you have unlocked a golden talent."

The system stated in text.

"Oh my god!"

Instantly feeling dizzy, overwhelming joy filled his heart. Xia Yu resisted the urge to sing and dance, immediately summoning the talent tree diagram.

Just as expected.

At the top layer of the tree, at the crown, a talent icon gleamed with a dazzling golden light!

Staring at it, the information emerged:

"[Super Vision] (Talent): One of the four divine talents of the Chinese One System, upon activation, allows instant replication of an opponent’s moves, perfectly reproducing an opponent’s skills and recipes."

"Note: Activating the talent consumes spiritual power."

A short line, yet it fully displayed the sharp and powerful nature of a golden talent.

Copy!

This was the Eye of Replication!

The opponent’s skills, the opponent’s recipes, all became his own!

Moreover, [Super Vision] also bestowed the ability of returning the opponent’s skills upon them to the chef!

Without further ado, Xia Yu got up and ran back to the bathroom, eagerly activating the freshly acquired [Super Vision] by looking at himself in the mirror!

It was still the left eye!

A stream of air traveled through the minute meridians of his eye area, and with a blink, the world instantly changed.

The reflection in the mirror had no apparent change.

The left eye, containing the airflow, remained the same as before, with a white sclera, brown iris, clear and distinct.

However, the fluctuating air currents in the air and the tiny dust particles floating within them were completely captured within his vision; time and space became controllable through his eyes!

Raising an eyebrow.

Xia Yu left the bathroom and went to the refrigerator in the kitchen on the first floor, casually taking out a carrot.

He fixed his gaze.

In his eyes, the carrot was dissected and analyzed; the dry peel on the surface, the flesh inside, since it was an ingredient provided by IGO, had very good quality, and the flesh texture did not differ much in his eyes.

Holding this carrot, he picked up a knife, thump, thump, thump, thump!

The blade moved swiftly, chopping and slicing.

The right eye saw the normal world.

But in the left eye, every detail when he brought the knife down, like the thickness of the slices and shreds, the strength of his hands, even the sharpness of the knife, all converged into fragmented information in the left eyeball and was conveyed to his brain, becoming very vivid.

Maintaining the chopping motion.

He fixed his gaze on his own hands.

Suddenly, Xia Yu abandoned the knife and took a deep breath, standing in place dumbstruck, thinking, "Replay!"

Thus, the fragmented information obtained by the right eye earlier formed a vivid picture in his mind.

At this point, Xia Yu understood why [Super Vision] could replicate the opponent’s cooking skills and recipes, it was indeed a superpower!

At this moment, a sharp pain emerged in the depths of his head.

Hmm?

Promptly stopping the operation of [Super Vision], Xia Yu placed his hands on the kitchen counter, and after a full half-minute, he shook his head, with persistent amazement in his eyes, "Such severe consumption?"

He had just woken up from a nap, and theoretically, his spirit should have been full, but after a few minutes of operating [Super Vision], he felt fatigue.

It was a consumption on the mental level.

That feeling was akin to focusing on culinary research for an entire day.

He needed to replenish nutrition.

"System, with my current physical constitution, how long can [Super Vision] remain active?" Xia Yu frowned.

"Ten minutes."

The system responded, "Exceeding this time will cause irreversible mental damage. If it is necessary to operate this golden talent for an extended period, it is recommended that the host use the spiritual concentration pill."

"Oh come on!"

Xia Yu widened his eyes.

Doused with a bucket of cold water, he felt less joyful than he did initially.

Ten minutes?

That duration was seriously short and powerless. Just consider replicating the opponent’s recipe; it would certainly require continual attention to the opponent’s cooking process, which would require at least 2 hours.

minutes compared to at least 120 minutes.

Twelve times.

Relying on swallowing pills for continued usage was a headache just to think about.

Checking the price of spiritual concentration pills in the Chef God Mall, Xia Yu took a deep breath of cold air.

Wow!

Physical stamina pills were 2000 Fame Points, while spiritual concentration pills were double the price, 4000 Fame Points!

Copying an opponent’s dish to acquire a recipe would cost at least 10 pills, totaling 40,000 Fame Points; was it worth it?

He shook his head internally.

Even if it was a Purple Special Grade Recipe, it would still be a significant loss.

"In the end, it is due to lacking physical constitution!" Xia Yu sighed.

In the past, each of the Five Tiger Stars of the Chinese One System was a martial arts expert. If the same series of divine talents—[Super Vision], [Divine Sense of Smell], [Divine Touch], [Divine Hearing]—all severely consumed spiritual power, then leading the Chinese Dark Cooking World with four super talents, how monstrous must ’Cloud Entering Dragon’ Kaiyou have been?

"Wait!"

Xia Yu patted his forehead.

"System, are the golden talents of the Chinese One System equivalent to superpowers and require the consumption of spiritual power? Then the golden talents of the Food Duel System, such as the Divine Tongue, Divine Eye, Divine Sense of Smell, and Divine Hearing, are innate talents carried without any burden, right?" he asked.

"Incorrect!" the system replied, "Innate talents, whether they are the Divine Tongue, Divine Eye, Divine Sense of Smell, Divine Hearing, or the golden talents of the Chinese One System, can all be triggered without consumption."

"So, does this mean there are distinctions between acquired and innate talents?"

Xia Yu pondered while holding his chin.

He shook his head, ceasing to think further on it.

Finally obtaining a golden talent, despite usage limitations, it was still golden after all!

The long-held pent-up grievance in his heart finally dissipated. Xia Yu felt tears welling up, grateful that he had struck it rich once. Fortuitously navigating through Evolution Crystal, he unexpectedly succeeded in smuggling!

With a golden talent from the Chinese One System in hand.

So, could the golden talent of the Food Duel System be far behind?

And what about golden cooking skills?

Feeling a tickling sensation in his heart, Xia Yu began to fantasize. At the kitchen door, Hua Mao poked its head in, tilting its head to gaze at its owner, immersed in a fantasy world, with amber eyes displaying confusion.

Back to the topic, [Super Vision] turned out to be related to [Spice Inequality], this intrinsic connection was something Xia Yu couldn’t comprehend no matter how hard he tried; in short, it was the system’s mystical nature.
