Starting with Food Wars, I'll be sourcing delicacies from all realms.

Of course, Ximen Yan came up not because of Men Qi's words.

It was entirely because he had expended a lot of energy.

That's why Ximen Yan chose to come up here to rest for a while, and then go to buy grape spider eggs after he has recovered his strength.

"Are you not planning to continue with the Hunter Exam?"

Men Qi looked at Xi Men Yan and asked.

After all, the other candidates had already started boiling eggs, but Ximen Yan showed no intention of joining them.

As for the grape spider eggs.

Although it is unknown where Ximenyan is stored.

But without a doubt, Ximen Yan definitely got it.

Upon hearing Men Qi's question, Xi Men Yan nodded readily.

"That's right. After all, my purpose in taking the Hunter Exam was to obtain some rare ingredients."

"These grape spider eggs are excellent ingredients, so we certainly can't let them go to waste."

In fact, it was just the grape spider eggs he had just obtained.

That was enough for him to complete the task.

So after Ximen Yan decided to buy grape spider eggs again, he went to buy other ingredients.

Although the grape spider egg is called the dream egg, it is not actually that rare!

It can only be said that obtaining it is extremely dangerous for ordinary people.

Therefore, Ximenyan did not plan to purchase too much.

After all, to enhance one's culinary skills, one needs to constantly seek out new and delicious foods.

The effects of food that has already been eaten on the enhancement of food cells are negligible.

So for him, the grape spider eggs were actually just a means to complete the system's procurement task.

The search for new delicacies, however, is to make oneself stronger.

Therefore, after completing the system procurement task.

What I need to do now, of course, is to find new delicacies to make myself stronger!

Only by becoming stronger can one obtain rarer delicacies, and then continue to become stronger—it's a positive cycle.

In fact, becoming a hunter can also make you stronger, since the Hunter Association will arrange for someone to teach you Nen abilities.

Unfortunately, he had limited time and couldn't possibly complete the Hunter Exam!

Of course, you want to learn Nen abilities.

It's not that you absolutely have to pass the Hunter Exam.

Previously, he wanted to go to the Sky Arena not only to farm gold to buy ingredients.

Actually, I also wanted to see if I could successfully activate Nen in the Sky Arena.

However, even the best plans can change.

However, he wants to learn Nen now, except for passing the Hunter Exam.

There is another way.

That is to force Hisoka to activate Nen for him.

Of course, this idea only flashed through Ximen Yan's mind before he put it out of his mind.

On one hand, it's because Hisoka is too abnormal.

Cherish life, stay away from perversion.

On the other hand, it's also because Hisoka's personality is unpredictable. What if Hisoka suddenly wanted to kill him?

Moreover, Hisoka only likes to reap the rewards, but doesn't like to cultivate 'unripe fruit'.

Getting Hisoka to activate Nen for him won't be so easy.

Therefore, Ximen Yan has given up on reciting the mantra this time.

We'll figure out a way to activate Nen when he comes back to the Hunter x Hunter world in the future.

"If you want to find rare ingredients, becoming a food hunter is actually a good choice."

"After all, having a hunter's license allows you to enter places that are off-limits to ordinary people."

Men Qi looked at Xi Men Yan and said with a serious expression.

Ximen Yan's pursuit of delicious food.

Whether for money or simply for personal enjoyment, becoming a gourmet hunter is a perfect fit.

Moreover, Ximen Yan's cooking skills are quite good, of course, this is Men Qi's opinion.

In fact, Ximen Yan's cooking skills were only mediocre at best.

However, roasting pig requires precise control of the heat, which is precisely what Ximen Yan excels at.

"If I have the chance, I might give it a try!"

"However, right now, it's more important to purchase ingredients."

Ximen Yan smiled.

If he had enough time, he wouldn't mind getting a hunter's license and becoming a gourmet hunter.

However, isn't it because there isn't enough time?

Seeing how enthusiastic Menqi was, Ximen Yan thought for a moment and took out two natural rice balls and handed them to Menqi.

"Oh right, you didn't eat much before, here are these two rice balls for you!"

Unfortunately, after all that was used up, only these two natural rice balls are left.

Fortunately, other ingredients have been added.

"Thank you very much."

Men Qi took the rice ball handed to him by Xi Men Yan, looking somewhat helpless.

After all, she was quite picky about food, being a gourmet hunter.

Rice balls made from ordinary white rice simply couldn't satisfy her!

However, she still had a relatively high opinion of Ximen Yan.

So after thinking about it, Menqi decided to give it a try.

And upon tasting it, one can naturally appreciate the deliciousness of natural rice.

Menqi finished the two rice balls in a very short time, and then couldn't help but show a look of lingering satisfaction.

This was arguably the best rice ball she had ever eaten.

"Menqi, isn't that rice ball delicious?"

Buhara looked at Menqi and couldn't help but ask.

After all, judging from Menqi's expression, he knew it must be delicious.

"It's really delicious!"

Menqi nodded to Buhala.

Then he looked at Ximen Yan.

"I never expected you to have such rare ingredients."

"If you still have any, I'd like to pay for some."

Menqi said very seriously.

Although it tastes about the same as grape spider eggs.

But it was an ingredient she had never tasted before.

"I don't have any natural rice left now."

Ximen Yan said with a hint of helplessness.

Aside from those sold to Totsuki Academy, he basically ate the rest.

"That's it!"

Menqi was somewhat disappointed.

However, she was surprised that Ximen Yan was able to obtain ingredients that she had never received before.

Menqi then handed Ximen Yan a slip of paper with her phone number on it.

"This is my phone number. If you find any special ingredients in the future, you can give me a call."

"I will acquire it at a reasonable price."

Menqi said very seriously.

After all, although Ximen Yan can no longer be considered a gourmet hunter.

But it seems that the only thing separating him from becoming a Gourmet Hunter is a Hunter's License.

"If I find any special ingredients, I will definitely tell you."

Ximen Yan nodded readily.

If I can come to the Hunter x Hunter world again in the future.

At that time, we might actually be able to make a deal with Menchi.

Chapter 19 A Farewell Gift Before Departure, Horned Scale (Please Add to Favorites)

The second round of the Hunter Exam has ended.

A total of 42 candidates passed this time.

Of course, this does not include simendy.

In fact, everyone knew that Ximen Yan had voluntarily given up on continuing the exam.

Most candidates didn't pay much attention to Ximen Yan's decision to give up participating in the Hunter Exam.

Of course, there are some who care.

For example, Hisoka, the 'fruit farmer', looked rather unwell.

Ximen Yan had already caught his attention during the first exam.

The teleportation ability he had previously demonstrated in the canyon had further stirred his heart.

Ximen Yan is clearly not some 'unripe fruit'! Rather, he is a 'fruit about to ripen', which makes him quite eager to taste it.

If Simon Yan, this 'fruit about to ripen,' were to mature during the Hunter Exam.

Then he can finally have a good taste.

As a result, Ximen Yan didn't participate in the upcoming Hunter Exam!

This made the 'fruit farmer' Hisoka very unhappy.

What made 'fruit farmer' Hisoka even more upset was that with Netero around, he couldn't do much.

Netero is a real monster!

He still has many delicious fruits waiting to be picked, so it's best to be honest at this time.

……

Before leaving, Gon and Killua found Simon again.

"Ximen Yan, are you really not going to take the upcoming exam?"

"What a pity, Ximen Yan, you're so strong and you cook so well."
