Start with delicious food

……

Seeing that everyone was unable to decide who to advance, Qin Hao simply made a suggestion.

"How about this, we let Erina and Zeus advance to the finals together."

"Anyway, the finals only need to decide the champion. One more contestant won't hurt."

Hearing Qin Hao's proposal, everyone in G7 looked at each other.

Then Apollon wiped the sweat from his temples.

"Master Qin Hao, your proposal is somewhat inconsistent with the rules of previous food festivals..."

Qin Hao spread his hands and said.

"So do you have any other ideas? Or have you decided whose cooking is better?"

"This one……"

After a period of silence, Qin Hao's proposal was finally adopted.

Zeus and Erina Nakiri both advanced to the next round and will compete with Komatsu in the final one hour later to decide the champion of this food festival and the new world's number one chef.

……

The one-hour break was over quickly.

An excited voice from Chest Hair came over the radio.

"Dear audience friends! The most exciting moment is about to come!"

"That's right! That's it——the final cooking showdown of this food festival!"

"And this time the final is an unprecedented three-way showdown!"

“Cheer up, celebrate! Three of the world’s top chefs are about to present us with a culinary feast that is destined to go down in the history of food festivals!!!”

"Well! Now! Please welcome our contestants!"

As Chest Hair finished speaking, the gate to the contestants' entrance slowly opened.

Zeus, Erina Nakiri, and Komatsu entered one after another amid the cheers of countless people in the audience.

At this moment, with the sound of mechanical rotation, the center area of ​​the Food Pot Stadium began to shrink to both sides.

Then a huge cooking platform rose from the ground.

We have reached the final, and there are no restrictions at all.

There are no restrictions on ingredients or cooking themes. In this round of competition, Komatsu, Erina Nakiri and Zeus can all bring out their best dishes to compete.

As the competition began, the three of them entered the cooking state almost at the same time.

From now on, it will be a competition of hard power among the three parties.

There are no restrictions on ingredients in the final of the Food Festival, so before the competition started, Qin Hao originally planned to provide Erina Nakiri with some delicious ingredients from the universe to increase her chances of winning the championship.

However, Erina Nakiri rejected Qin Hao's proposal and said that she did not want to rely on the deliciousness of the ingredients themselves, but on her own strength to win the competition.

So in the end, except for Zeus who used the ingredients he caught himself, Komatsu and Erina Nakiri only used the ingredients provided by IGO to prepare their dishes.

……

As time passes by.

In fact, only a few minutes had passed since the game started.

After all, the three chefs in the competition can use the otherworldly curvature kitchen to speed up the cooking process of ingredients.

So only five minutes had passed since the game started.

Zeus was the first to finish cooking.

Soon after, Erina Nakiri and Komatsu also finished their respective dishes.

This time, the cooking competition was not as difficult to decide as in the previous round.

Komatsu, who was blessed with good food luck and mastered the divine cooking technique, won the championship with a crushing result. The second place went to Zeus, who used high-quality ingredients he caught himself.

Although Zeus and Erina Nakiri were almost the same in terms of cooking skills, Zeus still won the second place due to his advantage in ingredients.

Seeing this result, Erina Nakiri's face instantly darkened.

I suddenly felt regretful that I did not accept the high-quality ingredients provided by Qin Hao.

……

Finally, he held the trophy of the world's best chef that he had always dreamed of. Tears of excitement flowed from Xiaosong's eyes.

Although he was eliminated early in the previous competition, he is still a close friend of Komatsu who studied with him.

Otake and Nakamei were equally excited and happy for Komatsu.

As soon as the game ended, the two of them ran down from the audience seats.

"Xiaosong! You won! You are the champion!"

"Congratulations, Xiaosong! The new world's number one chef. Remember to treat us to a meal later!"

Looking at Otake and Zhongmei who gathered around him, tears flashed in Xiaosong's eyes.

"Dazhu! Xiaomei! You guys..."

Otake patted Xiaosong's shoulder and laughed. "Really? Xiaosong, you're still that crybaby even though you're already an adult. Hahaha~"

"Xiaosong, you are so amazing! You can actually serve such dishes! Now you have left me and Otake far behind." Zhongmei couldn't help but sigh.

Dazhu raised his eyebrows and said with a look of dissatisfaction.

"Hmph~ That's you, Xiaomei. Xiaosong, you may be ahead temporarily this time. But I will win back next time!"

Looking at his two good friends who were genuinely happy for him, Komatsu also showed a bright smile on his face.

"Xiaosong!"

Just then, A Lu's voice came from not far away.

Xiaosong turned around excitedly.

The four gourmet kings, wearing the same white suits, waved at Komatsu with a smile.

"Mr. Alu! Everyone!"

Seeing the figures of A'lu and others, Xiaosong excitedly ran towards them with the trophy.

Looking at Xiaosong's excited back, Otake smiled and shook his head.

"Really? Mr. Aru and his team left us behind as soon as they arrived. But speaking of which, Mei, shouldn't we also look for a gourmet hunter partner?"

Zhong Mei scratched her head. "Well... this..."

Noticing that Zhongmei seemed to be worried about something, Dazhu looked at Zhongmei in confusion and asked.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"If you need any help, just ask, Xiaomei. Xiaosong and I will help you if we can."

Zhong Mei waved her hand.

"No, no, no, don't bother. It's actually about school."

"Because at Mr. Aru's wedding, Otake, I, and Xiaosong successfully killed God. I don't know how this news leaked out."

"Now there are tens of thousands of people signing up for Nakamei Cooking School every day. Granny Sumire is too busy, so I basically have to teach others every day. I don't even have much time to study cooking, and I don't have the chance to find a food hunter partner."

Hearing this, Dazhu's face showed a speechless expression.

"Ah, that's it."

"No wonder you're never available every time I call you out before the game starts."

Zhongmei laughed slightly embarrassedly, then looked at Dazhu and asked.

"Okay, let's not talk about me anymore."

"By the way, Otake, how is your dream coming true?"

“An orphanage where homeless orphans can also taste the delicious food of the legendary ingredient God. It would be fantastic if this dream could come true!”

Dazhu spread his hands and said.

"It's still a long way off. But the new Dream Castle, which is used as an orphanage and is made entirely of food ingredients, has been completed. It's located just one street behind my restaurant, Dream Castle."

"Unfortunately, only the site has been completed. The most important thing is that God has not yet completed the variety improvement and artificial cultivation."

"I am currently working with IGO. Although I cannot provide God for the time being, there are already 10,000 orphans living in the New Dream Castle around the world."

"Hey ~ 10,000 people! Dazhu, do you have enough funds? I have a lot of apprentices signing up every day."

"If you need funding..."

Before Zhongmei could finish her words, Dazhu waved his hand.

"No, no, I told you. I am working with IGO now. All the food consumed by the orphanage is provided by IGO. And every month IGO will provide 10 million for other miscellaneous expenses of the orphanage."

"Besides, my restaurant business is very good. Every day, customers line up in a line that is ten kilometers long. So I will never be short of funds."

"However, if you really want to help me, Xiaomei, please introduce some outstanding graduates from Zhongmei Cooking School to me."

"There are more and more children to take care of, and I really can't take care of them all."

Zhong Mei nodded. "Okay, I understand. There is a group of students who are about to graduate from Zhong Mei Cooking School. When they graduate, I will recommend your place to them."

……

While Dazhu and Zhongmei were talking, Xiaosong also came to Alu and his companions.

"Mr. Alu! I, I won the championship!!!" Xiaosong shouted excitedly while holding the trophy.

A Lu laughed. "Haha~ I knew you could do it! Xiaosong!"

"The dishes you prepared during the competition look delicious! Make some more for us to try! Let's have a party to celebrate your victory, Xiaosong! How do you think?"

Hearing this, Coco on the side whispered.

"Leave the ingredients to us, Komatsu."

"That's right, we will definitely bring back the best ingredients!" Sunny followed.

Xiaosong smiled and nodded.

"Okay! Leave the banquet to me! Everyone just wait and eat!"

"If it doesn't taste good, you will be punished to keep cooking until we are satisfied." Zebra said half-jokingly.

Xiaosong smiled and scratched his head.

"Hahaha~ Yes, Mr. Zebra! I will definitely satisfy everyone!"

Just then, Staju's voice came from not far away.

"Well, although I came a little late, at least I finally caught up."

"Congratulations on winning the championship, Komatsu."

Seeing Staju coming, Xiaosong shouted in surprise. "Mr. Staju!"

"Hey! Stajiu, you're so slow. You only arrived after the game is over!"

Stajiu spread his hands and said.

"I have rushed back from the food world as fast as I can."

"The food world? Why are you going there?" Sunny couldn't help but ask.

Staciu replied.

"Of course, it's to prepare for future exploration of the universe."

"Members of the IGO Zeroth Ecological Zone and the top executives of the Gourmet Association are all on the First Continent of the Gourmet World, helping to cultivate space camping beasts."

“As a senior member of the Gourmet Club, I will naturally follow Master Sanhu to the Gourmet Club.”

"It won't be long before the first group of members will head out into the universe to explore unknown delicacies."

"What! Are the beasts for space camping ready!?" A Lu asked excitedly.

Stajiu nodded. "At present, the camping beast that only moves within the Gourmet Solar System has been cultivated."

"However, if you want to go further, you will have to wait a little longer."

"After all, if you want to go to a more distant place, you must take a faster ride and use the camping beasts from the other world."

"Otherwise, it would take an ordinary camping beast dozens or even hundreds of years just to travel through the universe..."
