The time on the wall told Mag that 52 days had already passed. He had lost count of how many grilled fish dishes he had prepared long ago. All he knew was that in the beginning, even catching and killing the smallest iridescent scale grass carp was a slight struggle for him, but now, he could pull out the biggest iridescent scale grass carp in the tank, then stun, kill, and clean it within 15 seconds.

Mag felt like even the fish salesmen at the market probably weren't as fast as him.

As Mag awaited the final judgment from the system, he was very calm. He had been rejected countless times already, and if rejection came again, then he would just have to keep going.

He could only blame himself for being too picky in his past life, stating all of those meticulous conditions, and shooting himself in the foot. The grilled fish he had sampled were all widely accepted to be the best on offer, but he still made additional demands. Those demands were now coming back to haunt him.

If I'm going to make it, then I'm going to make it as perfect as possible. Otherwise, I would be bringing shame to the restaurant, Mag thought to himself, and a smile appeared on his face. Even though cooking in the test field for the God of Cookery was extremely boring and monotonous, it was all worth it when he saw the elated smiles on the faces of Amy and his customers after they tasted his dishes.

"According to the criteria proposed by you in the past:

"1. The fish skin must be crispy, yet not burned. The flesh of the fish must be as soft as tofu, but can't fall apart. Tick!

"2. The soup must be oily but not greasy, and has to be spicy, yet it can't sting the nose with its scent. Tick!

"3. The taste of the fish must be alluring and pronounced, but not overpowered by other ingredients or condiments. Tick!

"You have satisfied all three conditions. Congratulations, you have mastered the spicy grilled fish! At the same time, you have unlocked the right to purchase all ingredients related to the spicy grilled fish, as well as the right to use all of the kitchenware required to cook the dish."

The system's voice carried a hint of encouragement.

"Looks like I'm pretty talented at cooking grilled fish." A smile appeared on Mag's face. He looked at the spicy grilled fish that was simmering in oily red soup, and couldn't help but swallow. All that was left to do was to place it over an alcohol stove, and the delicious spicy grilled fish dish would be ready to be served.

"Would you like to taste the grilled fish? If not, you may leave the test field for the God of Cookery now," the system asked.

Mag shook his head with a smile, and said, "I'll pass this time. I'll taste it together with Amy next time. But, system, can I stay here for a while? There's still a few hours left until morning, so just get my sword in here, and let me practice in the test field for the God of Cookery."

He had hatched this plot a long time ago. He could only practice an hour per night as he had to take into consideration his stamina, recovery ability, as well as a series of other limiting factors.

However, none of those were concerns in the test field for the God of Cookery. He could practice day and night, without having to worry about not getting enough. As such, he could practice for several dozen days without any sleep, thereby allowing him to perfectly master the most powerful sword forms that he could unleash in his current condition.
