Start with delicious food

……

Soon, all the contestants finished their dishes.

Qin Hao and others also started tasting and scoring the dishes.

As the rankings on the points table changed again and again, after all the contestants' dishes had been judged.

The top four contestants who advanced to the semi-finals were Komatsu, Erina Nakiri, Zeus and Alice Nakiri.

The scores obtained were: Komatsu ranked first with 100 points, and Nakiri Erina, Nakiri Alice and Zeus tied for 98 points.

With the emergence of the top four teams of the Food Festival, the group list for the Food Festival semi-finals was quickly and randomly drawn.

A staff member trotted over and handed Chest Hair the semi-final draw results.

Chest Hair picked up the microphone and spoke loudly.

"It's out! The group list for the semi-finals!"

"First up is our first match, between Chef Komatsu and contestant Alice Nakiri!"

"And the second match of the semi-finals, contestant Erina Nakiri vs. Chef Zeus!"

"Oh, this group competition is really intense!"

"The winner of the semi-finals will enter our final round!"

"However, I'm afraid today's game will have to end here."

"Although I am looking forward to the upcoming cooking showdown just like all of you viewers! However, due to time constraints, the semi-finals and finals will be held tomorrow."

After hearing this, the audience in the auditorium realized that it was already past five in the afternoon.

Cooking competitions like the semi-finals and finals of the food festival definitely cannot be scheduled in the evening.

Moreover, having just been tempted by the poisonous dishes prepared by many chefs, most of the audience were already growling with hunger.

……

After today's game ended, Qin Hao first went to find Soma Yukihira and others who were eliminated in the quarterfinals (quarterfinals?).

After comforting everyone who was depressed because of the loss of the game, Qin Hao personally prepared a delicious meal for everyone.

This time, when preparing the dish, Qin Hao deliberately slowed down the cooking speed to make it easier for everyone to watch and learn.

In addition, this time, Soma Yukihira and others all entered the top 32 of this food festival.

With such achievements, they will be ranked at least in the top 50 in the world chef rankings after this food festival is over.

So Qin Hao simply assigned everyone a new task, which was to let them run a restaurant by themselves.

The location of the new store was decided by Soma Yukihira and others.

Qin Hao will also help if needed in other aspects.

As for Qin Hao's own restaurant, it is usually managed by Red Netero Kaka and the little mouse Remi.

Soma Yukihira and others just need to go over and help out in their free time.

Of course, if you don’t want to open your own restaurant, you can continue to stay in Qin Hao’s restaurant.

After careful consideration, Megumi Tadokoro, Izumi Mito, Yuki Yoshino and Ryoko Sakaki chose to stay in Qin Hao's restaurant.

Isshiki Hui is preparing to find Teppei to learn about the Regeneration Master.

After all, in addition to cooking, he is more interested in planting and cultivating new varieties of ingredients.

Except for the four of them, most of the others chose to open their own shops.

Si Yingshi even plans to open his own restaurant on top of the Twin Food Towers.

To this end, he not only accumulated a large amount of financial reserves, but also made preparations for the food battle.

After learning about Si Yingshi's goal, Kobayashi Ryodan immediately expressed his desire to open his own store in the Twin Food Towers.

……

As the sky gradually darkened, after the moon rose into the sky.

Qin Hao sent everyone who was a little drunk at the banquet back to the top suite of the ten-star hotel in the Food Pot Stadium to rest.

Afterwards, he brought Erina Nakiri and the other two back to the system space and went to the hot spring pool to soak in the hot springs and rest.

After Qin Hao's many transformations, more types of hot springs have been added in Qin Hao's system space.

In addition to the most common hot springs, there are also milk hot springs, hot beer hot springs, hot chocolate hot springs, and some hot spring beasts with medical effects, such as hot spring dragons, hot spring whales, etc.

In order to allow Erina Nakiri and Alice Nakiri to face tomorrow's game in their best condition.

While Erina Nakiri and the other two were playing and resting in the hot spring pool, Qin Hao prepared a sumptuous dinner for them.

So, Qin Hao began to collect fresh ingredients in the system space.

After taking a look at the food stored in the King’s Treasure, Qin Hao immediately decided that the first ingredient he should collect would be sweet cola.

Qin Hao flashed to the underground palace prepared for the Salamander Sphinx in the desert area of ​​the system space.

At this time, the Salamander Sphinx had accumulated a whole year's worth of tears, which was sweet cola.

After being fed by Qin Hao for so many years, this Salamander Sphinx has basically never left this underground palace.

However, the capture level of this Salamander Sphinx is still over 50,000. The sweet cola produced is not only larger in quantity, but also more delicious.

……

After Qin Hao arrived, Salamander Sphinx, who immediately understood why Qin Hao came, lay on the ground obediently. Tears quickly appeared in his eyes.

Afterwards, Qin Hao didn't need to do anything. A large amount of tears turned into delicious cola and gushed out of the Salamander Sphinx as if it was free.

As the first wave of alkaline cola tears, which were second only to sweet cola in taste, gushed out of the eyes of the Salamander Sphinx.

After a brief brewing, the second wave of sweet cola, which was even more powerful, turned into two cola versions of high-pressure water guns and gushed out from the eyes of the Salamander Sphinx.

Qin Hao immediately opened the King’s Treasure and used gravity to collect all the sweet cola.

After replenishing his fresh sweet cola, Qin Hao rushed to the next location without stopping.

On the endless grassland, herds of wild animals such as pigs, cattle and sheep can be seen everywhere.

Because the soil was extremely fertile, the eaten grass grew again in the blink of an eye.

From time to time, strange birds fly across the sky, and occasionally some of them will actively descend from the sky to hunt.

Even though they were kept in the system space by Qin Hao, the natural law of survival of the fittest still existed here.

However, under the condition of human intervention, all biological populations collected by Qin Hao into the system space will basically not be extinct in the system space.

Moreover, Qin Hao would deliberately feed more delicious ingredients to those ingredients that he liked, so that their strength would become stronger and more delicious as their levels were upgraded.

After genetic modification, the END mammoth herd has become even larger in size, like a moving mountain.

Cross the grassland and enjoy the almost inexhaustible rainbow fruits beside the rainbow fruit forest.

Qin Hao found the largest leader among the elephants at a glance, and immediately turned into a stream of light and drilled into the other's body.

This is not the first or second time that Qin Hao has collected all the elephant gem meat here.

Qin Hao walked through the maze with ease and soon saw a piece of golden meat in front of him that was emitting dazzling light, like a dazzling gem.

However, the smell of this gem meat is not as mellow as before.

Looking at the perfect gem meat in front of him, whose deliciousness had not yet reached its peak, Qin Hao shook his head slightly.

"Just a little bit more..."

"Forget it, let's get another perfect elephant to collect the gem meat. If we collect the food now, it would be a bit... huh? Haha~ This is really a coincidence."

Qin Hao watched the scene in front of him with a smile.

After the END Mammoth absorbs the nutrients from the rainbow fruit it just ate and transfers the nutrients into its gem meat.

The piece of gem meat in front of Qin Hao burst into an even more dazzling colorful light.

The rich aroma of meat wafts out.

Although Qin Hao didn't like eating raw meat directly, after smelling the scent, Qin Hao still reached out and gently cut a piece from the gem meat.

The abundant juice exploded in Qin Hao's hands.

The aroma from the thick gravy is even more appetizing to the taste buds.

Qin Hao didn't waste any time and directly put the perfect piece of gem meat he had just cut into his mouth.

With a light bite, the rich gravy exploded in Qin Hao's mouth.

It's like biting into juicy fruit.

"Delicious! It's so delicious even when eaten raw. It's worthy of the Perfect Mammoth that I used all the ingredients to build up to level 50,000. This tastes even better than when it was level 10,000!"

Licking the gravy off his hands, Qin Hao waved his hand and cut off the entire piece of gem meat and put it back into the King's Treasure.

After leaving the body of this 50,000-level perfect elephant, Qin Hao visited the bodies of several other perfect elephants ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 levels in turn to collect the gem meat.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Hao came to a large pond of broth that was emitting hot steam.

The water temperature here remains at a boiling state of 100 degrees all year round.

And the water here is not ordinary water, but a delicious and rich broth.

There are also many ingredients living in this hot spring.

And Qin Hao's target here to catch is naturally the lady fish.

Through the use of Observation Haki, the location of the school of noble fish was quickly determined.

After selecting the fattest lady fish, Qin Hao directly used gravity to pull it out from the bottom of the pond.

At first, the lady fish tried to struggle a few times, but Qin Hao waved his hand and lightly touched it.

The noble fish was instantly acupunctured and then directly put into the king's treasure by Qin Hao.

After catching the lady fish, Qin Hao rushed to the nearby beach without stopping.

From here, you can see from a distance a group of giant crabs, which have grown to more than ten meters in size after obtaining gourmet cells, preying on spring sharks.

Seeing this scene, Qin Hao collected some huge crab claws.

However, Qin Hao only collected one claw from each giant crab to ensure that they could still hunt.

As for the spring sharks, since it was not the most delicious time, Qin Hao did not try to catch them, but let them swim away with the ocean current.

Instead, he dived into the water and dived directly into the deep sea to catch the golden puffer whales that live in the deep sea during the non-spawning season.

……

After capturing enough ingredients, Qin Hao started to head to the last location: Golden Swamp.

Prepare to go out there and catch a solid gold whale.

The golden swamp in Qin Hao’s system space originated from the golden swamp on the eighth continent of the food world.

These extremely fine gold particles are not only extremely pure, but also very transparent.

In the sunlight, you can even see things above the water directly from the bottom of the water.

After arriving at the Golden Swamp, Qin Hao activated his Observation Haki and prepared to capture the largest pure gold whale.

Then, Kalina, Nami, and Shirahoshi were seen resting their heads on a huge golden whale, while their bodies were completely immersed in the golden swamp, enjoying the golden sun bath.

Especially the White Star, with its huge white snow peaks floating on the golden ocean.

At this moment, as if this posture had lasted too long, Bai Xing moved his body and turned over. Then he saw Qin Hao standing not far away.

When Bai Xing noticed Qin Hao's arrival, he was stunned for a moment.

Then she covered her chest shyly and shouted subconsciously.

"Qin, Master Qin Hao, why are you here?"

Hearing this, Nami and Kalina also looked over.

Although I was subconsciously shy for a moment, I had been with Qin Hao for so long.

Whatever happened has already happened.

So the two of them did not cover their faces shyly like Shirahoshi.

Instead, he looked at Qin Hao openly.

"Qin Hao, didn't you accompany Erina and the others to participate in a cooking competition? Is it over?" Kalina asked with a smile.

Qin Hao smiled and shook his head.

"Not yet. The finals are tomorrow. Bring them back today to rest and prepare a big meal."

"By the way, we happened to meet today, so why don't you come have a meal together?"

Hearing this, Nami rolled her eyes at Qin Hao.

"Come on, don't we know what you want to do?"

"How many times have I used this kind of rhetoric?"

Looking at the cunning in Nami's eyes, Qin Hao's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

Then he turned his back to Nami and said.

"That's a shame. In that case, I..."

Before Qin Hao could finish his words, Nami's angry roar came from behind him.

"Come back here! Seriously, we didn't say we wouldn't go."

Qin Hao turned around with a smile, and in a flash he came to her side and hugged Nami's waist.

Then, like a magic trick, a stack of gourmet gold coins with a face value of one trillion appeared.

"Haha~ Just a joke."

"Come and have a snack."

……

After chatting with Nami and others for a while.

I feel like if I don’t leave today, I might not be able to leave.

Qin Hao directly asked Nami and the other two to go to the hot spring to have dinner together.

Afterwards, they captured a pure golden whale and quickly returned to the hot spring to prepare delicious food.
