Chapter 504: The Escape from the Soup Dumplings

After defeating the master of soup dumplings in the soup dumpling competition, Qin Feng and his friends dominated the entire academy with their "Dragon Shadow Soup Dumplings". Everyone was talking about their unique soup dumplings, and even Vice Dean Feng Jian was impressed by them and even asked them to launch an exclusive "Soul Master Set Meal" for the academy. However, before Qin Feng had time to immerse himself in the joy of victory, he felt a little uneasy in his heart - the dark sect actually used food as a cover to infiltrate the academy, and there must be a bigger conspiracy behind it.

However, at the same time, the students of the college had higher and higher expectations for Qin Feng and his team, and soup dumplings seemed to have become their synonym. Every day, countless people lined up to taste the "Longying Soup Dumplings". For a time, Qin Feng and his team became the "food stars" of the college, but they also fell into an unforeseen huge trouble.

Since the end of the competition, Qin Feng and his team have been surrounded by crazy fans of soup dumplings. Students from the academy come to knock on their door in groups every day, insisting on eating their "Dragon Shadow Soup Dumplings". Even some mentors from the Soul Master Academy did not hesitate to use their personal connections to quietly pass a small note, asking Qin Feng to send them a few baskets of dumplings.

"This is the tenth time! Someone asked me for the secret recipe of soup dumplings again!" Zhang Meng looked helpless and rubbed his temples, "I feel like I'm not a soul master anymore, I've become a steamed dumpling master."

"I am now wondering whether we are here to practice or to open a restaurant." Ye Li curled her lips and couldn't help complaining while letting the Frost Fox cool down the buns.

Qin Feng smiled and shook his head: "It seems that we are indeed a little too famous. We are being chased and blocked because of soup dumplings. If this continues, we will be driven crazy by the steamed dumpling fans!"

Chu Tian smiled bitterly and handed Qin Feng a small note: "Brother Feng, this is not a fan issue. I heard that the college is going to hold a 'Soup Dumpling Culture Seminar' and invited us to be the guest speaker."

Qin Feng almost choked on the bun in his hand and coughed several times: "Soup dumpling cultural seminar? We have to be the keynote speaker? I don't plan to be a 'dumpling ambassador'!"

"If this continues, we may really have to change careers." Zhang Meng sighed.

Just when they were having a headache over the crazy fans of the soup dumplings, an even more troubling news came: Vice Dean Feng Jian actually decided to list their "Dragon Shadow Soup Dumplings" as a fixed menu in the college cafeteria! And the college cafeteria has already started ordering hundreds of baskets of dumplings from them, preparing to launch them at the Soul Master Festival next month!

"It's over now..." Qin Feng stood there in a daze, the smile on his face froze, "It seems we can't escape."

After receiving the news, Qin Feng and his friends came to the office of Vice President Feng Jian with a helpless look on their faces. When they opened the door, Feng Jian was holding a book "Soul Master Cooking Art" and said happily: "Ah, Qin Feng, you are here! I heard that the soup dumplings you made are very popular. I decided to list it as one of the signature dishes of the college. How is it? Are you excited?"

Qin Feng's mouth twitched: "Deputy Dean, we are actually here to practice, not to be chefs."

Vice Dean Feng Jian smiled so much that his eyebrows flew up: "Hey, as a soul master, you have to have some life skills, right? Besides, the soup dumplings have great potential. You see, this is a good opportunity to improve the image of the college and attract outside talents!"

"Vice President, you are using us as a signboard..." Chu Tian sighed helplessly.

"Don't worry, your training won't be delayed!" Feng Jian patted Qin Feng's shoulder seriously, "You are just making some soup dumplings. Our Soul Master Academy not only teaches soul skills, but also cultivates comprehensive qualities! You are now a model of versatility!"

Listening to Vice President Feng Jian's "expectational" encouragement, Qin Feng and the others were completely speechless. It seemed that they couldn't get rid of the big pot of "soup dumpling business".

"Deputy Dean, I can make a few baskets of soup dumplings, but your order for hundreds of baskets is a bit exaggerated!" Ye Li crossed her arms and said seriously, "We are not a dumpling factory."

Vice Dean Feng Jian smiled awkwardly: "Don't worry, this is just the first step. When the school develops well in the future, maybe the school can open a chain of steamed bun shops!"

Qin Feng and his partners were completely speechless and walked out of the office silently, complaining in their hearts while thinking about how to get out of this situation.

After returning to the dormitory, everyone decided that they could no longer be tied down by the "soup dumpling business". Zhang Meng was the first to suggest: "We have to find a way to escape this dumpling quagmire, otherwise we will be used as 'soup dumpling machines' and squeezed dry sooner or later!"

"The question is, how can we get rid of so many people's pursuit?" Ye Li pondered and analyzed calmly, "How about we create some accidents? For example, make the soup dumplings 'inedible'?"

"Good idea! We can make the soup dumplings fail and make everyone lose interest in it." Chu Tian said, patting his thigh.

Qin Feng smiled and said, "This is a good idea, but we can't be too obvious. We have to make everyone feel that the soup dumplings 'taste worse', so that they will automatically give up."

Thus, a new "Soup Dumpling Escape Plan" began to be carried out in secret. In order to make the soup dumplings "fall out of favor", they decided to add some special seasonings to the dumplings, such as "super sour plum juice", "soul chili powder" and "thunder MSG".

"After adding these seasonings, I guess people who eat it will have to run to the toilet." Zhang Meng smiled proudly while preparing his unique "secret recipe".

"In this way, people will definitely stop following me!" Ye Li nodded, already looking forward to seeing the expressions of the fans after eating the buns.

The next day, Qin Feng and his team brought the prepared "special edition soup dumplings" to the cafeteria and deliberately displayed them in front of all the teachers and students in the school. Vice Dean Feng Jian came to taste them in person and said with a smile: "Haha, today's dumplings look more creative! Come and try them."

A group of teachers and students gathered around, vying to taste the "Longying Soup Dumplings". However, as soon as they took a bite, everyone's expressions instantly became extremely exciting.

"What's that smell?" A classmate covered his mouth and said in pain, "It's so sour that my tongue is tied!"

Another student's face was red, and his mouth seemed to be spewing fire: "Where did you buy this chili powder? It's sending me into a volcano!"

"Why is my mouth numb? I feel like I was struck by lightning!" Some classmates were shivering from the electric shock of Thunder MSG.

Vice Dean Feng Jian was also so spicy that tears were streaming down his face. However, he did not want to lose his composure in front of everyone, so he endured the spiciness and said, "Well... today's taste... is very special... this must be an exclusive secret recipe!"

Seeing everyone running to find water to drink, Qin Feng and the others secretly laughed, thinking that no one would be crazy about soup dumplings anymore.

However, what they never expected was that the disaster was still to come.

I thought that these "special flavor" soup dumplings would make everyone lose interest, but I didn't expect that the next day, there was still a long line in front of the college's soup dumpling stall, and the line was even longer than before! Everyone rushed to shout: "I want another basket of the hot and sour soup dumplings from yesterday, it was so satisfying!"

"Ah! It turns out that everyone's taste has become heavier?" Chu Tian was dumbfounded.

Qin Feng and his friends looked at each other in bewilderment. They really couldn't understand what was wrong with these fans. Their buns had obviously become "very outrageous", but these people actually liked them more!

"It seems that we can't get rid of these fans." Qin Feng sighed helplessly.

"It seems that we can only rely on ourselves to continue to find ways to escape from this quagmire." Ye Li said, and the Frost Fox also shook its tail helplessly.

Although Qin Feng and his team's "Soup Dumpling Escape Plan" completely failed, they still decided not to give up and continued to look for ways to get rid of the Soup Dumpling fans. However, the legend of the Soup Dumpling in the academy has begun to spread, and no one can predict what absurd story will happen next.
