In Douluo Continent, what is a martial soul? It's like Luckin Coffee.

Chapter 170 The taste of orange peel? It's alright.
"Heat the coffee and then significantly enhance its original effect."

The only downside is that it will reduce the shelf life.

The original Luckin Coffee had the characteristic of being almost like ice, which could be preserved indefinitely as long as the ice did not melt, and could last for several days and nights.

Once you switch to hot coffee, you must finish it within three hours. After that, the benefits of the coffee will decrease by 10% every half hour. After eight hours, the coffee will disappear completely.

That's normal; after all, you always have to lose something on the road to becoming stronger.

"Give me a hot coffee."

Gu Yuena had secretly drunk quite a bit of iced coffee. (She had taken it from the auspicious beast using her spatial powers; the beast knew this, but kept silent to avoid embarrassing Gu Yuena.)
Gu Yuena had never had hot coffee before.

Speaking of which, chilling coffee can moderately suppress its bitterness, but will heating it amplify the bitterness?

"American style?"

"Even dogs won't drink Americano, how about... an Orange C Americano?"

A pure Americano is the kind of coffee that Gu Yuena wouldn't even bother to look at, let alone heat up, which would make it even more bitter.

"Fifth Soul Skill: I'd like hot coffee, please."

As Bai Ran finished speaking.

Xiao Zi, who originally resided in the sea of ​​consciousness, slowly appeared in front of Bai Ran.

In her hand, she was holding a Luckin Coffee cup that was half her height.

Despite its size, Xiao Zi is about half the size of Bai Ran within the sea of ​​consciousness.

But once outside, she's like a small figurine, someone Bai Ran could easily hold in one hand.

As Luckin Coffee liquid and Red Nucleus Cataclysm juice (orange juice) are mixed, Little Purple breathes out a black flame to heat them up.

After about fifteen seconds, pour the liquid into a Luckin Coffee cup, and a hot Orange C Americano is ready.

Strangely enough, even though the coffee in the cup had just been heated to the highest temperature and reached the optimal drinking temperature, it didn't feel particularly hot when I touched it; it was just warm at most.

Although it is the fifth soul skill, as long as it is coffee that Bai Ran's soul skill contains, Xiao Zi, as a soul spirit, can make the corresponding heated version.

As for which specific type of hot coffee you want?

Bai Ran only needs to silently recite the name of the coffee when using his soul skill.

However, the extra Luckin Coffee that Bai Ran created using the prompt words is not within the scope of the fifth soul skill.

Just like some of Luckin Coffee's products only have the option of being served chilled, this is a kind of tribute.

……

"Is this hot coffee? It looks no different from regular coffee."

Gu Yuena took the Luckin Orange C Americano (hot) from Xiao Zi and glanced at it. She found that apart from the temperature, it was no different from the original Orange C Americano.

As for the taste?

Gu Yuena took a big gulp.

Having mastered the power of the elements, let alone this temperature, she could swallow even the most extreme fire whole, and then exclaim, "So authentic~"

"Um……"

Gu Yuena frowned slightly.

If you've never had an iced Orange C Americano, then this hot Orange C Americano has a unique flavor.

The problem is that Gu Yuena had drunk several iced orange C Americanos.

If you say that an orange C Americano with ice is a juice made by juicing an orange, peel and all.

So this heated Orange C Americano is basically just orange peel juice.

In short, it felt rather eerie.

It's not like orange juice, and it's not like coffee.

"The effect has indeed improved, but the taste... it's barely palatable." Actually, what Gu Yuena said was rather tactful.

If she weren't worried about Xiao Zi's feelings, she probably would have said she would sit at the same table as the iced Americano.

Xiao Zi's hot coffee received a bad review on her first try, and it was from the most respected Lord. I can't even imagine how long she'll stay depressed after that.

So, to save face for the younger generation, Gu Yuena gave an ambiguous evaluation of "it's alright".

Hot fruit coffee, anyone who drinks it knows, it tastes like rotten fruit.

But I had a hot coconut latte.

After Gu Yuena drank it, her eyes lit up.

The milk, coconut, and coffee flavors are more pronounced.

Gu Yuena: This is more in line with the effect of the fifth soul skill.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Sun Moon Royal Team was heading to the Star Luo Empire to participate in this year's Soul Fighting Tournament.

Normally, the sooner the Sun and Moon Royal Team arrives in Star Luo City, the better.

Although there have been constant frictions between the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire in recent years, and even the most elite legions of each empire have been deployed in the border areas.

But this kind of continent-wide fighting spirit tournament.

Even if the relationship between the two great empires is bad, the Star Luo Empire royal family, as the host, would never take action against the members of the Sun Moon Royal Team.

Therefore, the earlier they arrive, the sooner they can enjoy the local customs and culture of the Star Luo Empire and familiarize themselves with the competition venue.

However, the members of the Sun and Moon Royal Team were not in a hurry to travel at all, and did not even use their flying soul tools.

The reason was simple: the later they arrived in Xingluo City, the more meals they could enjoy cooked by their team leader, Ye Tian.

Ye Tian is Chef Ye from the teachers' canteen.

After tasting the dishes prepared by Ye Tian himself, the team members, who had initially been convinced that a food-type Soul Master who wasn't even a Soul Master was serving as their team leader, were now completely convinced.

No wonder the proud siblings Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen didn't show any dissatisfaction at first.

It seems they already knew all along.

Treacherous, so treacherous.

"There are less than half a month left before the start of the competition, and we haven't even reached the Star Luo Empire yet. Children, are we moving too slowly?"

Ye Tian looked at these children who weren't even willing to take out their flying soul tools and was speechless for a moment.

Not to mention the children, even Jing Hongchen, who had been staying in the shadows to protect everyone's safety, and another level nine soul master were not in a hurry at all.

Jing Hongchen: Just kidding. Is the food at the Xingluo City Inn as good as Brother Ye Tian's cooking?
Besides, Ye Tian's cooking perfectly preserves the energy within the soul beast meat.

Despite their arduous journey, they have not slacked off in their cultivation.

After eating Ye Tian's cooking for more than ten days, some members of the team are about to break through their soul power level.

Sometimes, eating is also a part of spiritual practice.

"It's not slow. As long as we reach it within three days before the competition, we still have ten days."

Ma Rulong, the team captain, stated that this was a normal speed.

Seeing the captain speak, the remaining members echoed his sentiments.

Ye Tian: I really can't do anything with you guys.

So Ye Tian didn't cook that night.

Then, in just one night, the group arrived at Star Luo City using a flying soul tool.
