[CMBT] 41 - Smash the Evil Blade! Soul of the Seven-Star Knives!!.ass (DOWNLOAD SUBTITLES)
After two rounds of the Banquet Cooking Tournament, we're leading the Underworld with one win and one tie.
In Battle Shanghai Hairy Crab, Leon fought against a fellow Seven-Star Knives user—
An Underworld chef with the appelation "Ten-Feet-of-Blue," the woman named Shan.
She created a simple crab omelet and soup combination.
While Leon crafted the luxurious Crab Stuffed Shells.
However...
Why do I feel so uneasy?
This tastes awful, damn you!
Smash the Evil Blade! Soul of the Seven-Star Knives!!
L-Leon's crab dish tastes awful?
That's right. It's awful and it makes me sick.
I won't eat another bite!
Is this some funny joke, Leon? You want us to judge your garbage?!
What in the world is happening?
The judges are disgusted at the magnificent crab dish prepared by Seven-Star Knives Leon!
Then it's settled.
The third round of the Banquet Cooking Tournament, Battle Shanghai Hairy Crabs...
Is won by Shan, the Ten-Feet-of-Blue!
Are you all agreed?
Yes! Yes!
And the winner of this round is Shan, the Ten-Feet-of-Blue!
Oh yeah!
But... Leon's cooking is superior no matter how you look at it.
That judgment... do you guarantee to abide by it?
No matter what happens?
Of course!
Definitely!
Damn it!
They've been seduced!
They've all been seduced by Shan. That's the real reason behind this travesty!
No way can Crab Stuffed Shells lose to an ordinary crab omelet!
That's right! Why do you refuse to be fair in your judgment, Master Zhang?
I'll never believe that anything cooked by Leon would taste awful!
Please explain!
Silence, Sanche!
I told you from the start...
Our job is simply to vote...
... for the better-tasting dish. Nothing more!
B-but still!
You can say what you want, but that won't cut it for me!
Eat that thing! Then you'll see!
That's right.
Of course. This will clear things up once and for all.
Shells packed with just crab meat.
Fried to a crispy gold perfection.
The taste is unified with crab sauce and crab roe.
The savory taste of Shanghai hairy crab is concentrated in here.
Delicious! Delicious!
The moment you put the fragrant fried shell in your mouth...
Every flavor that makes Shanghai Hairy Crab delicious starts bursting out!
It's a flood that sweeps anyone who eats it into heaven!
It's a vortex of crab meat!
There's nothing left to say! It's supremely delicious.
Yes. Silky strands of crab meat have been removed all the way up to the claw tip.
And carefully fried inside the shell. A delicate process all around.
This work unquestionably testifies to Leon's skill and spirit.
W-what do you mean?
What are they talking about?
They're trying to insult us.
I can't believe that crab omelet tasted better than Leon's dish!
You said it, Big Sis! Let's go eat that crab omelet!
Why does she look so confident?
So, how does it compare? Is Shan's crab omelet superior to Leon's Crab Stuffed Shells?
Yes, it is delicious, but...
There's nothing special about it.
Any chef with half-decent skill can easily make this!
Hey you, you guys are a bunch of cheaters!
If you are seriously judging, the verdict cheats no matter how you cut it!
What was that, boy? Say that again!
I'll say that as often as I like! Your tongues are wrong! Don't lie, cheaters!
This battle is already settled!
Shut yer trap, shrimp!
We're not lying! We're telling the truth. Come and eat!
That's right, that's right!
Shut up, we're not lying! Our tongues have spoken the truth!
That's right!
Yeah!
So then, which side is telling the truth?
And which one's a filthy liar?
Nobody's lying.
What?
Brother Mao...
That's the soup Shan used as a side dish.
The soup... It can't be!
That's right, Leon.
This soup was the trick behind her magic.
Ten-Feet-of-Blue Shan!
You're despicable!
What's the problem, Brother Mao?
Drink it, Shilou! All of it.
What? It's just a side dish...
It's a soup that tastes heavily of crab.
An enormous amount of crab shell juice was used here.
It tastes fine, but still is a far cry from Leon's Crab Stuffed Shells.
Eat Leon's Crab Stuffed Shells one more time, Shilou.
The taste won't change no matter how often you eat it. It'll taste good.
Just eat it!
All right already.
I'll eat it. I'll eat it, okay?
There's no need to glare at me that way.
Wha? This is disgusting! What is this?
What?
Shilou!
I couldn't taste any crab in this at all!
All I tasted was soft, chewy tasteless stuff and sticky oil!
I can't possibly eat this.
No way. Didn't you say it was delicious a moment ago?
What in the world is this, Mao? Did the taste of his dish change?
The crab omelet was just a camouflage.
The trap the judges fell for was the soup!
Y-you mean there's a drug in there?
No, this is honest-to-goodness crab soup. However...
It's an extract from crushed crab shells, just much thicker than usual.
With an incredibly strong taste of crab.
I see. But how does that relate to Leon's cooking?
Eat something that's incredibly spicy, and then something that isn't too spicy.
If you do this, you'll think the second dish was less spicy than it actually is.
That's what happened here.
After drinking the soup, your tongue is desensitized to the taste of crab.
Anything you eat afterwards won't taste like crab anymore.
I see. That explains a lot!
That's why Leon's dish seemed so tasteless, without a single hint of crab.
The only taste you noticed was oily stickiness. The only taste you noticed was oily stickiness.
To be honest, Leon's dish is probably the best crab dish in China.
It would be highly praised anywhere in the world.
But ironically, the more it tasted like a crab, the more tasteless it seemed!
Shan must have chosen this trick after confirming Leon was making Crab Stuffed Shells!
Creating food for the purpose of undermining others...
Rather than to enhance its taste...
That's not what a normal chef would do!
Such trickery!
The things the Underworld would stoop to! Sly fox!
Well done, Liu Mao Xing. You've seen through my Underworld technique.
But the judgment remains.
They gave me their word it won't change no matter what!
So that's an Underworld Technique!
Even when Liu Mao Xing revealed the trick, Ten-Feet-of-Blue Shan's victory will remain unchallenged!
Oh yeah!
- Way to go, girl!
A win's a win, no matter what!
How could I...
You have skills and talent to spare, and yet you were too soft...
That's why you fell for a simple trick like this.
You once committed murder to become the best of the best...
But now, look at you.
You're not a chef worthy to even touch the Seven-Star Knives!
Leon!
I'm sorry, Mao.
I deserted the Underworld, and planned to destroy it.
And yet I allowed myself to lose in a place like this?!
Leon!
You're nothing but a loser, unfit even for the outside world.
Those hands smeared with Lache's blood proves you're a loser!
And I was supposed to be the ultimate chef!
Do I even have the right to touch the Seven-Star Knives?!
Leon...
Leon.
Do I even have the right to touch the Seven-Star Knives?!
Tell me, Lache.
That's right, Leon.
This Seven-Star Knife was created by the hatred of the murdered Lache.
It rejoices now after extracting its vengeance.
Only one person in the world should own the Seven-Star Knives.
Yours truly, Ten-Feet-of-Blue Shan!
Not so fast.
You certainly took your time with this show of yours.
But I knew that's what you were after all along.
I have you figured out, Ten-Feet-of-Blue Shan!
I know why you have another set of Seven-Star Knives.
What do you mean, Shell?
Why does Shan have another set of Seven-Star Knives?
Listen. Lache, the best swordsmith, forged the Seven-Star Knives.
Even alongside his best weapons, they were his greatest masterpiece.
So last year , right after its completion, a Leon overcame by greed ...
... killed Lache so that no blade that surpassed his Seven-Star Knives can exist.
However...
That doesn't make sense, now that another set of Seven-Star Knives has surfaced.
Like I said, these Seven-Star Knives were created by the hatred of the Lache murdered by Leon...
That's not possible!
Unless... Lache lived.
What?
What?
He lived? He lived?
What do you mean, Shell?
Mao, I've met Lache once during my journeys.
You met Lache?
At the time, Lache told me this.
"When a craftsman creates his magnum opus, he creates another set to offer it to the gods as thanksgiving."
"And he keeps the location of the second set secret to his grave."
I see. That's why there were two sets.
Right, and what she's got is the set meant as an offering.
Am I wrong, you sly fox?
I remember there being a clump of dead grass right below the cliff where Lache had his workshop.
What if it acted as a cushion that kept Lache alive?
L-Leon...
And who else would show up right then, but Ten-Feet-of-Blue Shan?
I hear that Underworld Techniques extend even into medicine.
That's what you used. Am I wrong, Shan?
A truth serum.
And that's why I dislike wandering men.
How could I have known that you were acquainted with Lache?
Where did you hide the Seven Star Knives?
The d-dragon's.... cave...
The reason she chose Leon and not Mao as an opponent
was so that she would be the sole owner of the Seven-Star Knives.
Taking advantage of Leon's pure, proud, and fragile personality,
she set him up so that he would discard his own Seven-Star Knives.
But if that's true, then Lache... Lache's alive!
I'm not as soft as you are, Leon.
No way...
I sent him to the afterlife... and made sure of it this time.
How could this be?
All this time, you lived with the guilt of murder hanging on your shoulders.
You're indeed a scary woman.
This shine, this edge belongs to me.
I won't allow anyone else to have it!
Die!
I'll send you to the place where Lache awaits!
Leon!
Stop!
Stop, Leon!
Now that's entertainment!
Win this one too, sis!
W-what's this?
W-what's that light?
La—
Lache...
I'm not seeing this!
Is this...
An illusion?
What in the world is that?
What's happening?
Leon, after all this time, you're still using the Seven-Star Knives for something other than cooking.
The Seven North Stars are the gods that rule over life and death.
The duty that I installed into the Seven-Star Knives was to turn the life of ingredients into life for those who eat them.
And to lead people to happiness with the sharpness of its edge.
The path you traveled since acquiring the Seven-Star Knives that day was filled with regret.
But it wasn't wrong.
Live, with my Seven-Star Knives.
And with it, create as much life as you can!
Impossible!
My Seven-Star Knives!
Leon's Seven-Star Knives...
I see. So this is the answer of Lache's soul
that continued to dwell in the two sets of knives, even after his death.
The Seven-Star Knives are knives that continue to evolve.
They will grow brighter, stronger, sharper...
Depending on the number of people made happy by the one who wields them!
Yeah! So Lache's soul has accepted Leon as the true wielder!
Leon continued to use the Knives for the sake of others, while bearing the burning pain of remorse by himself.
He is the rightful owner of the only set of Seven-Star Knives left in the world!
You may have tricked the judges, but not the Seven-Star Knives or Lache.
Shan! After seeing this, I don't even have to ask how you've been using your Seven-Star Knives!
It looks like you're the one not worthy to even touch them!
The smell of blood is gone from my hands.
Lache, you're willing to forgive me?
Then I swear this to you.
I'll follow in your path for the rest of my life, and fight for the joy of myriad others till the day I'm dust!
I'm sorry, everybody.
We suffered a painful defeat because of my weakness.
No, Leon. That was magnificent cooking. Thank you.
I'm just happy you've turned a corner.
It's finally time for our leader, Brother Mao, to fight!
Fight him if you dare!
Now, both sides are tied with a win, loss, and a draw each!
We now enter the fourth and final round of the Banquet Cooking Tournament!
All right!
It's all up to you, Mao.
But who am I up against?
That's right! Get on with it. Who's the fourth member of your team?
Out with it!
Relax.
That person is already waiting for you, Liu Mao Xing.
What? For me?
Mwa ha ha ha.
Mwa ha ha ha!
FREE AS THE WIND
Every night when I fall fast asleep I can hear you whispering in my dreams, feel me.
Then a bluish flame burns bright within Shining, sparkling hotter than ordinary fire.
Look at all the rain gently falling down, Filling over the dry lake bed with freshwater streams.
If we both go down like this inside our hearts, Who knows what places we will find and explore?
Destiny ensured that we both meet at the same present.
Free to frolic like the wandering wind.
Ohhh, can we stay like this until the very end of time?
This intensity I feel for you, is from Cosmic Power...
