Pokémon: I just became a Gym Leader, and Cynthia proposed to me.

Chapter 586 Li Shuwen, you have no heart!

Li Shuwen said calmly, "Golden light represents the response generated by being fully immersed in cooking, which is a very important indicator."

"You should all try it."

The Medicine King couldn't wait to cut off a piece and put it in his mouth to savor it.

The Medicine King's eyes widened immediately. "I seem to see a sun bird dancing gracefully amidst light and heat, causing a surge of intense heat to well up within my body."

"But... how did this dish turn out like this?"

Li Shuwen also tried a piece, but was somewhat disappointed.

This kind of food would indeed have health benefits for modern people.

However, compared to today's advanced technology, the traditional methods of training Pokémon are not cost-effective.

Even with Li Shuwen's physique, he couldn't possibly keep up making this special dish for Pokémon every day.

However, in special circumstances, it can boost a Pokémon's status.

For example, the adventure to Misty Island that follows.

There's also Blaziken, whose Burst Crimson Mode requires a higher intensity of energy replenishment, and this special cooking method is very suitable for Blaziken.

You know what, the Totsuki Academy has really got something out of its long history.

I feel that the Elite Ten of Totsuki should be able to learn even more advanced things.

Li Shuwen raised an eyebrow. Perhaps he could let Chuangzhen go to the Veil Dojo for special training and see if he could learn anything new after becoming one of the Ten Heroes.

If Soma returns to Veilstone City in the future, he can help Soma cook for his Pokémon.

Li Shuwen asked, "Was setting up a stall in Veil City an assignment given to you two by the academy?"

Soma nodded. "That's right. We need to earn one million through cooking, and we only have two months."

Li Shuwen asked, "Can I hire the two of you for one million to cook for my Pokémon?"

The Medicine King was taken aback. "Is this possible?"

Li Shuwen said calmly, "I don't think your school restricts how you make money, right?"

Soma thought for a moment, "I'll call and ask if that's okay."

Soma went to the side to make a phone call to inquire, and soon a staff member in a black suit came running over.

"The school doesn't prohibit this way of making money, but your workload must match the amount paid by the other party."

Li Shuwen smiled faintly, "Don't worry, their workload will definitely be worth the one million I paid."

Chuangzhen was a little worried because Li Shuwen thought they wouldn't be able to achieve a million-dollar sales target in two months, which was why he kindly hired them.

This situation is absolutely unacceptable in the competition for Totsuki Academy.

The man in the black suit nodded. "I will supervise their work and determine their wages based on the value of their work."

"Although the librarian offered a reward of one million, I will only judge the value of their work based on the results."

"If it doesn't meet the requirements, only the qualified portion of the one million you give will be counted."

Li Shuwen nodded. "If their value exceeds one million, do I need to give them more?"

When Li Shuwen asked this question, the man in the black suit was stunned. "Wait, weren't you planning to help them lighten their burden?"

Why would you ask that question?

The man in the black suit thought for a moment, "No need. One million is enough to pass the test. No need to give more. Of course, this money belongs to them."

"If you're willing to give more, that's between you two; I won't get involved."

Soma quickly replied, "No need, one million is enough!"

Given the relationship between Soma and Li Shuwen when they were children, giving them one million is already too much.

Soma immediately packed up his stall and planned to take his cart to the Veiled Dojo.

Ah Kai immediately spoke up, "I'll do it. I'm stronger, so I can pull the cart faster."

Soma wanted to be polite, but Kai reached out and gently pulled, and the cart was pulled in front of Kai.

Ah Kai grinned, revealing eight white teeth. "This amount of exercise is nothing to me."

Akin nodded in agreement, "That's right, leave this little thing to us, Veil White Fang. At worst, you can cook some more dishes to thank Senior Brother when you get back to the Veil Dojo."

Li Shuwen also spoke up, "After you see Kai's training, you won't feel sorry anymore. Hurry up and set off; you still need to earn money to pass the academy's assessment."

"Don't forget, your dream is to be the top ten champion!"

The Medicine King was immediately filled with fighting spirit, "Alright! Once we get back to the Veiled Dojo, I'll show you all my cooking skills!"

Upon returning to the Veiled Dojo, Soma immediately inquired about their work.

Li Shuwen said, "You'll be in charge of dinner tonight, and then you'll help me prepare food for all the Pokémon in the gym."

"I have the recipe I've written down. It shouldn't be a problem for you, right?"

The Medicine King wiped his nose. "No problem!"

Chuangzhen and Xiaohui collaborated and prepared a large table of dishes in less than an hour.

"Let's eat!"

Li Shuwen raised an eyebrow. "That's not enough. Go prepare another meal."

Soma was taken aback. "So much food! There are only five of you. Can you finish it all?"

Li Shuwen said with a smile, "Don't worry about cooking, we'll definitely be able to finish it."

Soma assumed that Li Shuwen was doing this to help him complete the assessment, so he went to make it without saying a word.

When Soma came out to serve the food again, he found that a third of the dishes on the table were gone.

Everyone ate quickly, but the person who ate the most was Li Shuwen, whose movements seemed slow but were actually the most efficient.

Each bite carries a mysterious flavor, like the most exquisite swordsmanship.

Even Li Shuwen's three apprentices were fighting over the vegetables like they were sparring.

Soma was a little curious. Is this how you eat at a fighting dojo?

After finally finishing preparing dinner, Soma and Xiaohui had a simple dinner in the kitchen.

After only half an hour of rest, Li Shuwen took him to a special place for making elf food.

"Xiao Hui, you'll be in charge of making the energy cubes. Soma, you and I will use your Totsuki Culinary Arts' special cooking techniques to make spirit food."

To practice first, Li Shuwen gave the recipe for the Poison Skull Frog's Pokémon food.

"Don't worry about making this. Just make sure the bitterness is clearly expressed, and it also has a pleasant aroma."

The Medicine King was somewhat surprised. "So much? That's enough for a week. With me here, I'll make it fresh for the Pokémon every day."

Li Shuwen said calmly, "That's right, this is the amount of food I'm having for tonight's post-training snack."

"Hurry up, after you finish the Poison Skull Frog, there are still these waiting for you."

Li Shuwen handed more than ten prescriptions to the Medicine King.

The Medicine King glanced through it briefly. "Do we need to finish everything tonight?"

Li Shuwen nodded. "Of course, otherwise what would they eat?"

The Medicine King glanced at the time. "It's 7 PM now. Can we finish before midnight?"

Li Shuwen thought for a moment, "What do you mean 12 o'clock? Training ends at 10 o'clock. We need to make sure they have a fresh post-training meal before then."

Soma's eyes widened immediately. Such a huge workload, and they're still trying to compress the time?

Li Shuwen, you have no heart!
