Her Food Livestream Broke the Galaxy

Chapter 129: He Doesn’t Beat Around the Bush

Connected to the sensors, Mo Si immediately received a notification that Jiang Qiuqiu had passed the first level.

He drew back his spiritual power and sensed that Jiang Qiuqiu’s entire Spirit Sea was trembling.

Clearly, it had been a struggle for her to get past the first level.

But even though it was such a struggle that her Spirit Sea trembled, she still made it through!

Mo Si immediately revised his assessment of Jiang Qiuqiu. Though the young woman appeared delicate, she possessed a resolute heart.

Perseverance was an indispensable quality for the Federation Army.

Jiang Qiuqiu was utterly exhausted. After using all her strength to pass the first level, she was completely spent, gasping for breath as she opened her eyes.

Sweat dripped from her eyelashes, clouding her vision. Everything looked wet and hazy. Jiang Qiuqiu blinked, and it was through this blurry view that she saw Mo Si’s eyes.

What deep eyes they were. The light sprinkled into them, creating a constellation of tiny stars—a galaxy that seemed to gaze at her and her alone.

Mo Si was looking at Jiang Qiuqiu with great seriousness. To her, however, his gaze was brimming with affection, a tender look that seemed to hold back a thousand unspoken words.

From Mo Si’s perspective:

’She’s recovering this quickly?’

’Her spiritual power was trembling just a moment ago, and she can already open her eyes?’

’She doesn’t seem to be in too much discomfort. It looks like she can handle more?’

’Her physical stamina might not be great, but her spiritual recovery rate has to be top-tier. That’s a crucial asset for long-endurance campaigns.’

His eyes grew even brighter.

All Jiang Qiuqiu saw were the stars in his eyes twinkling brighter, making Mo Si as a whole seem more vibrant.

His voice even seemed to have softened. "You did very well."

"Really?" Jiang Qiuqiu said in surprise. "I ran out of energy after just the first level."

"That’s perfectly normal. It’s your first time, so just enduring it would be considered a pass. The fact that you made it past the first level is already excellent."

"Well..." Jiang Qiuqiu couldn’t tell if he was just being polite, so she commented offhandedly, "That level was a little difficult."

Mo Si immediately shook his head, his expression serious. "No. It won’t be difficult for you."

"You seem a little excited."

"I’m not. I just think you have a lot of potential. You shouldn’t give up so easily."

Jiang Qiuqiu: ???

’I just made one casual complaint, and he thinks I’m giving up easily?’

’Looks like this Spiritual Combing Master was serious when he praised me. He really is blunt, isn’t he?’

’But then again, the way he looks when he’s being so serious is actually kind of cute.’

’A solemn voice, a serious expression, and yet the upper half of his face refused to look stern... what a strange combination. It all came together to make one very cute man.’

Jiang Qiuqiu couldn’t help but steal a couple more glances.

Having recovered some of her spiritual power, and after stealing a few more glances, she and Mo Si began discussing matters related to spiritual power again. Jiang Qiuqiu took the opportunity to ask him a few minor questions she had.

Mo Si answered them one by one, while mentally noting down all these characteristics.

"So with all this continuous training lately, have you been feeling fatigued?"

"The fatigue isn’t too bad. As long as I put on the Spirit Helmet and rest for a bit, I’m fine."

"Just the helmet?" Mo Si pressed. "You don’t do anything else to replenish your spiritual power?"

’Replenish my spiritual power?’ Jiang Qiuqiu asked quizzically, "Does eating count?"

Drinking regular Nutrient Liquid was said to lower your IQ, but it was obvious that the food Jiang Qiuqiu cooked for herself counted as recovery. So Mo Si nodded.

"Oh, in that case, yes. After Spiritual Training, I eat a lot more food."

That explained why Jiang Qiuqiu’s appetite had been growing so much lately. Where one bowl used to be enough to fill her up, now after a session of Spiritual Training, she felt like she could eat an entire basin’s worth.

She made a big circle with her hands to demonstrate. "Maybe this much."
