"Oh my, what a great body!"
Mo Huang and Feng Xuanya couldn't help but swallow, almost simultaneously exclaiming. The visual impact of the scene was simply too strong! It made their hearts pound.
"How did you train like this? From your arms to your legs... every muscle is so perfect! It's not overly exaggerated but very well-defined. When you wear clothes, if you don't look closely, you wouldn't even know you have such a physique. No wonder you always seem so tall and upright!"
Looking at Hoshino Sora's muscular physique, Mo Lang directly reached out to touch him, a hint of surprise in his eyes. He really liked this kind of body, but he just couldn't achieve it himself.
"I ate my way to it."
Hoshino Sora answered truthfully.
"You really like to joke. If you could get muscles like that just by eating, I'd swallow these chopsticks."
Hearing Hoshino Sora's explanation, Mo Lang laughed in amusement, then waved his hand, telling him not to joke around. He had never heard of anyone developing a perfect muscular physique just by eating.
"Hehe."
Shrugging his shoulders, Hoshino Sora saw that Mo Lang didn't believe him and didn't bother to say more, instead burying his head to continue eating dinner.
Before long, a large table of delicious dishes was completely devoured. It was then that Mo Lang and the others realized that Hoshino Sora wasn't exaggerating when he said he had a big appetite.
This guy was serious!
After dinner, Mo Lang still wanted to invite Hoshino Sora and the others to the school's entertainment area, but Hoshino Sora refused, citing that his wives had to participate in the entrance examination tomorrow, and he needed to accompany them.
However, Soma Yukihira and a few others were willing to go with him, so the two groups parted ways at the restaurant entrance. Hoshino Sora went home, while Soma Yukihira and his companions followed Mo Lang to tour the school's entertainment area.
This time, with a guide, the four saw many things they hadn't seen before and also learned about the historical background of these places, involuntarily showing expressions of longing.
On the other side, Hoshino Sora returned to the mansion with his harem.
Although tomorrow was the entrance examination, everyone except Shiina Mahiru seemed at ease. Even Mito Ikumi, the second weakest in the harem, was the same.
Although she was at the bottom of Hoshino Sora's harem, her strength was not weak; in fact, it could be said to be very, very strong, reaching the level to secure an Elite Ten seat in previous Totsuki Academy sessions.
Of course, this year, due to Hoshino Sora's sudden emergence and the gathering of various geniuses at Totsuki Academy, a rare "Raw Gem Generation" in a hundred years was formed, pushing the Elite Ten standard infinitely higher.
This caused her to recede into the background, becoming obscure and overlooked, but she was indeed a remarkably skilled chef!
At this moment, she followed Erina Nakiri back to her room, passing through the room to the Gourmet Manor. Compared to the cramped kitchen in their residence, the spacious area within the Dimensional Restaurant was more suitable for practice.
"Master, I've encountered many doubts recently. Could I ask you to help me resolve them?"
With a hint of hesitation in her voice, Hojo Miyoko had appeared beside Hoshino Sora at some point. Since everyone else had returned to their rooms, only she and her master remained in the living room.
So, Hojo Miyoko decisively mustered her courage and stepped forward, hoping Hoshino Sora could resolve the culinary doubts she had accumulated recently. At noon, because there were too many people and they were chatting, various factors prevented her from approaching.
"No problem. Tomorrow is the entrance examination. If you have anything you don't understand or can't do, feel free to ask now."
Hearing Hojo Miyoko's words, Hoshino Sora, who was about to go upstairs to get intimate with his wives, stopped. Then he actively walked towards the kitchen. Since he had taken on the role of master, he had to fulfill his duty!
The other party had, after all, kowtowed to him, which was a genuine apprenticeship. Hoshino Sora naturally couldn't disappoint her.
"Thank you, Master. It's like this... a while ago, I returned to Chinatown, and at first, it was still..."
Standing in the kitchen, Hojo Miyoko recounted what happened during the summer vacation. She returned to Chinatown to inherit her family's restaurant. At first, business was mediocre, but as she showed her talent, the restaurant's customers grew, and it also attracted some special customers.
One customer, in particular, left a deep impression on her. He found fault with almost every dish she made, and these were genuine, not fabricated, flaws.
This shocked her. She originally wanted that customer to give her more guidance, but he didn't come back the next day. And for a large part of the dishes he pointed out errors in, she could improve them on her own.
But for another part, no matter what method she used, she felt something was missing. So, she came to Hoshino Sora with her doubts, hoping to get a solution from him.
"First, make the dish. Let me taste how it is. That way, I can address the shortcomings precisely."
Looking at the somewhat naive Hojo Miyoko, Hoshino Sora lightly coughed twice, rubbed his nose, then stepped aside, asking her to cook a few dishes for him to taste.
"Yes!"
Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, Hojo Miyoko didn't hesitate. She first stood in front of the stove, familiarizing herself with the tools, then picked up the already prepared ingredients and began to operate.
Within a dozen minutes, a fish-fragrant shredded pork dish, perfect in color, aroma, and taste, appeared before Hoshino Sora.
"Two problems.
The shredded pork was not marinated well. The shredded pork should have a little starch, light soy sauce, egg liquid, salt, and cooking wine mixed in and marinated for about half an hour to ensure the tenderness of the meat and the absorption of flavor.
But you only marinated it for about twenty minutes, and the proportions were a bit off. Although this is a small detail, it can greatly affect the taste of the entire dish. This is one.
Second, when stir-frying the shredded pork, it wasn't seared enough. You should use hot oil to evenly sear the shredded pork until it changes color. Note, it must be hot oil. When your shredded pork went into the pan, the temperature wasn't high enough, so the resulting texture was a bit tough.
However, there are also merits, such as excellent ingredient handling and very precise control of the fish-fragrant sauce. These are the strengths of your dish. The shortcomings only need slight improvements."
