The young chef hesitated slightly upon hearing this but still took a sip, then immediately showed a pained expression.
After a long while, he regained his senses but kept his head down without speaking.
The elder then placed the young chef's Abyssal Thick Soup in front of a massive dog more than 4 meters tall, covered in black fur, with a blood-red vertical pupil on its forehead.
The Red-eyed Dog Demon, the elder's Spiritual Beast.
This Red-eyed Dog Demon opened its gaping maw and extended a tongue covered in backward-facing spines to gulp down the thick soup in one go, its vertical pupil shining with a captivating light, its tail swaying incessantly.
The Red-eyed Dog Demon is also a type of Abyss Giant Beast, with a preference for dark cuisine.
It was somewhat satisfied with the pot of thick soup.
However, the elder was not pleased.
"Not enough! Still not enough! This level of quality wouldn't even make it into the top 100 of the last Abyss Emperor Feast!"
The elder sighed.
