The Silver Sports Car stopped in front of Lin Mian. Although it was still fast this time, Lin felt something was strange.
The car's speed was not comparable to the last time when the Poverty Old Man drove recklessly; it was steadier and lacked that floating sensation.
With a roar, the car came to a halt. The window of the passenger seat rolled down, revealing the serious face of the Poverty Old Man. He waved at Lin, saying, "Get in!"
After a moment of surprise, Lin did not expect that the Poverty Old Man was not driving this time; there was someone else in the driver's seat.
Accompanied by the Live Streamer, Lin got into the Sports Car.
At the same time, the chat ban in the Live Streaming room had ended, and viewers began discussing the Sports Car and the identity of the Poverty Old Man. Many seasoned foodies recognized him as the elusive master of noodle-making.
Once inside the car, Lin's first reaction was to look at the driver. He saw a middle-aged man with a shiny face, slightly overweight, and an ordinary appearance—someone you wouldn't notice in a crowd.
"This is your mother's senior brother and also my eldest disciple; you should call him 'Shibo'."
While Lin was observing the middle-aged man, the Poverty Old Man began his introduction.
Lin quickly nodded and said, "Hello, Shibo!"
Ever since the Poverty Old Man helped Lin obtain an Exemption Certificate last time, Lin had grown increasingly respectful towards him; it would not be an exaggeration to say he followed his every word.
Now, Lin could set aside all his personality traits in front of the Poverty Old Man because his status in Lin's heart had risen to that of a "blood relative elder."
Listening to elders is a virtue passed down through generations in Chinese culture.
"Hello there. No need to call me Shibo; it feels too formal. Just call me Qing Uncle," said the middle-aged man, who introduced himself with a smile at Lin.
Then he reminded Lin Yi as he stepped on the gas pedal, and the Sports Car roared forward.
Throughout the journey, the Poverty Old Man kept giving advice and even explained that due to Qing Uncle's arrival, Lin's assessment would be elevated to a new level.
The Poverty Old Man originally just wanted Lin to participate in the exam to obtain a Level One Chef title, but now that his eldest disciple has returned, things are different.
In fact, the Poverty Old Man understands that Lin's abilities far exceed those of a Level One Chef; he has surpassed that foundational stage by a significant margin and even needs to surpass himself in certain aspects.
Long ago, the Poverty Old Man wanted Lin to take part in the Free Determination Chef Assessment.
The so-called Free Determination Assessment involves a recommendation from a chef of Fifth Level or above, followed by an evaluation from at least eight chefs of Fifth Level or above to quickly determine the chef's level.
Such situations are rare, so this mode is seldom utilized.
Coincidentally, across the entire Azure Planet, there are only eight chefs above Fifth Level. The Poverty Old Man is one of them, and if he recommends Lin for this mode, he would need to withdraw from the evaluator's position to avoid any conflict of interest.
Thus, there would be an insufficient number of evaluators, which is why this mode had remained only in the Poverty Old Man's plans and had never been presented to Lin Guo.
Now that the Poverty Old Man's eldest disciple has returned, this Qing Uncle is a Sixth-Level Chef and can perfectly replace the Poverty Old Man as an evaluator, allowing the Free Determination Assessment mode to be activated.
After hearing the Poverty Old Man's explanation, Lin nodded; this was good news for him as it would save him a lot of trouble.
Lin's greatest fear is trouble, so having this opportunity is naturally excellent.
"Alright, Poverty Old Man, I will participate. Is there anything else I need to pay attention to?"
Lin You asked carefully, and the Poverty Old Man patiently explained.
In this type of assessment, Lin only needs to pay attention to two things. First is time; such assessments are generally scheduled for a specific time and will not change unless there are special circumstances.
Second is the ingredients; they are randomly selected by the System with strict limitations. Only about ten types of ingredients will be available for the participants to choose from.
Therefore, this type of competition assessment is more comprehensive; it tests not only the chef's culinary skills but also their adaptability. It is much more challenging than typical level exams.
This is also why such assessments are not easily activated; no one wants to engage in something that is labor-intensive and thankless. Compared to these extremely difficult evaluations, many people prefer to participate in the annual stage exams.
But for Lin, these were not issues at all. If these two challenges could stump him, he wouldn't be worthy of the title of Culinary God.
"Don't worry, Poverty Old Man, I won't let you down!"
Lin replied confidently, and the Poverty Old Man nodded in appreciation from the front seat, clearly pleased with Lin's fighting spirit.
Participating in the Chef Assessment was like going into battle; one should have a strong determination.
After discussing the assessment with the Poverty Old Man, Lin finally had time to check the Live Streaming room, where he found that the discussion topics had already changed.
——
"Are you going to participate in the free assessment? I heard it's really tough."
"Go for it! We support you!"
"Can the Live Streaming still go on? You haven't asked yet!"
……

At this point, the barrage of comments had calmed down and returned to normal, allowing Lin Ye to see what they were saying.
In addition to the comments, there were also quite a few donations, adding up to several hundred Hero Coins. However, since the Live Streaming had just started and there hadn't been any exciting moments yet, gifts were not coming in quickly.
After reading the comments, Lin remembered an important question. He turned to the Poverty Old Man and asked, "Poverty Old Man, can I start Live Streaming during the assessment?"
"Start Live Streaming?"
The Poverty Old Man was taken aback for a moment and didn't respond right away. He had never experienced this situation before and wasn't sure if it was allowed.
"It should be fine. I remember there was a program recording during one of the assessments. Don't worry, I will make arrangements for you over there."
It was Qing Uncle who reassured Lin, allowing him to relax.
With that, everything was in place, just waiting for the right moment!
Lin received confirmation from Live Streaming, and the audience was very pleased. A few scattered donations came in, allowing Lin to earn some money.
Opportunities to make a lot of money were not frequent. If Lin wanted to earn Hero Coins in the future, he would still rely on these donations, accumulating little by little.
"Thank you all! Just wait for the assessment to start, and I will definitely showcase new dishes for everyone!"
After chatting with the audience for a while, Lin finally passed this long stretch of time.
More than half an hour had passed since Lin started his broadcast, and his popularity had stabilized at over eight million; there shouldn't be any significant fluctuations in a short time.
"Skrrt!" The sound of tires screeching against the pavement echoed.
Finally, after more than twenty minutes, Lin Ta and his companions arrived at the location of the Chef Assessment.
Getting out of the car, Lin and his companions stood at the entrance of a hotel with a slightly ancient charm. Poverty Old Man pointed at the hotel and said, "Let's go in; this is our assessment location."
