Now that the second celebration has finally started, tons of drinks and food started to come out from the back. Servant after servant came and filled the tables in front of the guest. In seconds the room became saturated with the smell of food and alcohol. Zhihui and Mors enjoy their time together as they eat some of the heavenly.
Zhihui brings a glass cup to her red lips, drinking its contents. A soft alcoholic liquid enters her mouth and went down her throat. This drink has a soft cooling feeling to it.
"Um~ [Ice Wine]"
Zhihui said as she puts the wine down, picking up her chops sticks as she eats one of the steam buns that were presented in front of her. Enjoying the flavors in it, biting down its soft dough, and tasting the cooked beef and vegetables that hide inside of it. She has fully lost herself in this paradise of flavors.
Mors on the other hand, who is not used to eating such good food, was practically having an orgasm eating this heavenly food. Lost in the pleasure of gluttony, if not for a loud voice waking him up, Mors would have lost to gluttony.
"Alright! To the grooms! You can believe we will give our most price daughters to you without proving yourself!?"
A round woman said to the grooms, picking up their attention. With a large toothy smile on her face, she calls forward some servants. The female servants were holding in their hands a bowl full of suspicious-looking food. The bowls get presented in front of the grooms.
The smell that came from this bowl of "food" is atrocious, the grooms need it to fight back their urge to vomit as they smell the bowl. As Zhihui gets a whiff of the bowl, her face turns a bit green as she gets out of her sit at frightening speeds. Some sparks of lighting leave behind a trail.
"What in the Celestial Dragon's name is that!?"
"hahah! Zhi! This is a traditional meal the groom must eat to prove himself!"
"Aunty! You could at least warm me about it! I was eating well!"
"Hahaha! Sorry about that, now grooms! I you want our approval you better eat that whole bowl!"
Song looks at the bowl in front of him, he could not help but feel queasy at the thought of eating this. He did not want to do this. His eyes turn to see what Mors is doing, only to find Mors has started to eat the contents of the bowl. His face changes with each new flavor that he finds.
'By the Celestial Dragon…if he can do that then I must as well!'
Song said in his head as he started to follow Mor's footsteps. Filling up his spoon and brings it closer to his mouth. His arms shake as he places the spoon into his mouth and eats the contents of the bowl. At first, it was not bad, that is till the spiciness started to kick in. Following by the sourness of a mixture of fruits and other things.
Then he is hit by the most teeth rotting sweetness. Then to finish it all off, the bitter taste of…something, he did not have the concentration to try and figure out what kind of ingredients were used to make whatever this abomination is. Xinyang has long since gotten away from him, like her cousin she did not like the smell of whatever they were eating.
Zhihui soon got shaken up by the mechanical sound of the system.

"Ming! You better eat everything!"
"Mhm"
Mors said as he nodded his head, as continued to eat to pass this challenge. If this is the first challenge, he could not imagen what the other two challenges were. The grooms spend 10 minutes just trying this challenge. As they eat the final spoon full, the clan members started to clap as they nodded their heads. The round lady laughs as she nods her head.
"Good, good! Now that is how a real man handles things!"
Her large confident smile shows her approval of the grooms.
[1/3]
Zhihui started to slowly approach Mors, smelling nothing out of the ordinary, she sighs softly. As she patted Mors on the back, using her Qi to make him fell slightly better. Mors who has his head laying on the table smiles softly at Zhihui.
"Thank you dear"
"You are welcome"
But as the aunty leaves, an old man comes and takes her place. The old man supported by a walking cane spoke as he looks at the grooms. Speaking in a soft and shaky voice.
"Now now, being able to eat anything for your wife does not matter if you don't know everything about your wife"
"Um? What do you mean?"
"I will ask you two or three questions about your wife and you must answer all of them correctly. The judge will be the wife's"
"Ah~ that sounds like fun!"
Zhihui said with a large smile on her face. She sits down on her chair and looks at Mors. The old man smiles as he asks the first question.
"Now let's start with something easy, what is your wife's hobby?"
Mors looks at Zhihui as he speaks, very confident in his answer.
"Her hobby is to organize everything and have everything fully planned out"
"Now that aint a hob-
"He is right"
Zhihui said, as that truly is the closest thing she has to a hobby. Maybe this is a wake-up calls to pick up a hobby like Mors.
"Xinyang favorite hobby is makeup and dressing up"
"Ha, very nice"
Xinyang said with a soft smile on her face.
"Good, good! Now the second question. How many kids does your wife want?"
"HA! Easy. She only wants one"
Mors said with a large laugh, as Zhihui nods her head.
"Xinyang only wants three kids." Xinyang smiles as she responds "You have spoken the truth"
"Amazing! Now for the hardest question. How many beauty marks does she have?"
"10, one under he-"
Before Mors could even finish talking, a fast punch came right toward his face. With a quick movement, he got out of her chair. Dodging the deadly punch by a few seconds.
"Don't speak about where they are! But you are correct"
"Sorry~"
"Wait..Ming! Did you take my daughter's vi-"
Before Tian could finish, a strong elbow attack hit him in the stomach. Wen showing the rare emotion of anger.
"Shut up Tian"
"Yes… but please don't hit me so hard"
"I won't have to if you stop being stupid"
"Ok…"
"So…with that little commotion over, what is your answer Song?"
"She has 5 beauty marks"
"He is correct!"
"Alright! This just proves that you two are worthy to marry this clan's daughters! You have my approval"
