Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

What? Start eating halberds at six o'clock? Is it six o'clock in the evening?

No, it's six o'clock in the morning!

Eh? Ah Xing, isn't he the one who doesn't like to get up early... and there are classes in the academy on Mondays, so there will be no audience at six o'clock in the morning?

The time limit for eating the halberd is... twelve hours! Although it started at six o'clock in the morning, it just ended at six o'clock in the evening. We finished class at 4:30, and we just happened to be able to see the climax!

Ten or twelve hours? Are they going to have a full banquet? How many dishes are they going to compete?

It's not specifically marked, so it should... be one!

Seeing that it's already the weekend, Monday is the food halberd for Liu Maoxing and Jiuga Zhaoji. The time and place have been set and announced throughout the academy.

The companions of Jixing Liao are also discussing this matter.

The students who originally regretted that the food halberd was chosen on Monday were shocked when they saw the time of the halberd food...

It was actually from six o'clock in the morning to six o'clock in the evening all day long!

But that's fine too. After class ends at 4:30 in the evening, they still have time to read the most critical part.

At this moment, Liu Maoxing's voice came from the door: I'm back.

A Xing is back? Come on, we were just talking about you eating the halberd the day after tomorrow... What did you do just now? It's special training again? You Ji asked suspiciously.

Uh, of course I went to ask for leave! I actually booked such a time... Liu Maoxing said helplessly.

Indeed, according to this schedule, Liu Maoxing and Jiugao will not have to attend this day's class.

The latter is still the eighth seat among the top ten. For Teruji Kuga, there is no compulsory course at all, and he can take all courses as electives!

After all, in Yuanyue College, the Council of the Ten Elites is the highest decision-making body, and the status of the Ten Elites is higher than that of the lecturers!

And Liu Maoxing also asked Chapel to ask for leave. If it was another first-year student who dared to ask Chapel for a whole day to eat halberds with people, this chef who can't laugh would definitely throw him out of the office ...

However, his attitude towards Liu Maoxing, whom he had always been optimistic about, was completely different. Not only did he approve Liu Maoxing's leave request, but he also tried his best to say a few words, and told him that he would also go to the scene to watch the battle before the end.

If other students see Chapel's attitude towards Liu Maoxing, they will definitely doubt life...

Is the time long and I set it according to the rules? It took so long... There must be a conspiracy! You Ji said with a fist.

It's not a conspiracy, but it seems that he is really going to do something big... Twelve hours of Chinese cuisine, you don't need to think about it, he must use broth! Liu Maoxing sighed.

Soup? Can't it be prepared in advance? Ryoko asked doubtfully.

Marui interjected: The pre-prepared ingredients and broth, after all, have been inspected by the Food and Beverage Administration...that is to say, only ordinary broth can be used! It seems that my senior is going to work hard on broth, ordinary broth If you can’t satisfy him, you have to use some special means.”

This is indeed the rule of food halberd, otherwise, if you bring the broth from the three-star chef, wouldn't the starting point be a lot higher?

There are corresponding regulations for the broth prepared in advance, and it can only be ordinary broth, not secret ones.

It's only twelve hours, it's too long... Ah Xing, there's no need for you to agree to him. Liangzi frowned.

No, since he wants to have a big fight, I'll just accompany him!

You don't want to use high soup, do you? Yuuji frowned.

Jiuwozhaoji obviously came prepared, but Liu Maoxing followed his train of thought and went to force the anus head-on, which inevitably meant using his own weaknesses to overcome the enemy's strengths.

But Liu Maoxing said with a smile: In the authentic Chinese cuisine, there is such a saying as 'the voice of the opera, the soup of the chef'... Before the era of 'great fusion of cuisines', all kinds of spices were still scarce, and there were no artificially refined and synthesized ones. In the era of condiments, Chinese cuisine uses broth to season umami.

Today, many masters of Chinese cuisine, also under the background of rich ingredients and great fusion of cuisines, continue to develop broth dishes. Although it is much more troublesome than directly using various artificial seasonings, it can achieve unexpected deliciousness! I am also good at Chinese cuisine, since he wanted to start the competition with broth, how could I avoid it!

But we can only cheer you after class... Dawu said.

Liu Maoxing seemed to be in high spirits. On Sunday, he went to select all kinds of ingredients and actively prepared for the battle...

The lecturers of Yuanyue College obviously found that on Mondays, especially in the afternoon, first-year students generally lost their concentration in class.

Of course, the lecturers also know the reason. It is estimated that the students are still in the classroom and at the cooking table, and their hearts have already drifted to the No. 3 public food hall!

Because only one of the two sides is the top ten, and it is not the food halberd that determines the ownership of the top ten seats, it did not take place between the moon and the sky.

There is a halberd feast going on for twelve hours!

Of course, everyone is not afraid of ending too long in advance. I am afraid that the judges will not arrive until four or five o'clock.

At most, there are people from the Food Halberd Administration Bureau, who will be notarized on the side.

After class, they must have time to watch the final session...

At this time, most of the students still think that I will be more disciplined in the long run. Although Liu Maoxing once won the tenth place Erina in the tenth place half a year ago, but for a long time I was higher than Erina, and two and a half years ago. That halberd-eating battle between Liu Maoxing and Erina was considered a battle of love, and Erina was caught by the beauty trick and did not exert her full strength...

But this kind of statement, except for Alice, no one dared to mention it in front of Erina.

The first-year students suddenly felt that the lecturers were suddenly reasonable today, and they ended get out of class more or less early, so that at 4:30, everyone had basically rushed to No. 3 food hall!

But I didn't realize that this kind of reasonableness didn't start today, but after returning from field training, in fact, the various compulsory controls of annual students have been much reduced and relaxed...

It's not that the standards are looser, and if you dare to serve unpalatable food in the assessment, you will be expelled, but it is no longer simply staring at them like you are staring at students!

After all, the end of the field training means that these first-year students have also entered a new stage, so the second and third-year students are allowed to take the initiative to have food halberds with them...

For second and third year students, Yuanyue College has strict standards, but the management is very broad.

Because the annual population is only over 200, the food hall looks a lot more spacious, and there is no need to worry about grabbing a seat. This time of year is the most spacious time for Yuanyue, and this situation will continue for two more years. Three months later, during the grade assessment, the first-year students will drop sharply again, and the third-year students will graduate, but after the school starts, new students will come in...

At this time, everyone also noticed that there were already three reviewers sitting in the review booth, two of whom they recognized, and the remaining one was a stranger.

The two that most of the students know are Oizumi Kakinosuke and Dojima Gin. The former is the president of the Japanese Food Business Association, and the latter is the chief chef of Totsuki Resort.

As for the one most of the students don't know, Liu Maoxing is also very familiar with it, it is Li Yuan from Yuanyue Resort!

Just when the other students were wondering why the food halberd brought Dojima Gin back this time, Ruishan, who was watching this scene, had a gloomy expression...

Dojima Yin and Li Yuan definitely didn't come here specially for this food halberd, they should just drop in. If it was a food halberd whose seat was changed from the top ten, it would be normal to ask him to come back to judge, but now this food halberd, although One of the top ten ended, but it was far from that important!

It's like when Erina was scheduled to eat the halberd with Gota Hayashi Kiyoshi of the Sumo Nabe Research Institute, the judges were far from the level of Dojima Gin...

In this way, Dojima Gin's original intention of coming here will make the person who cut thistle have to think more, not to mention that there is an old man with a sense of justice, Oizumi Kakinosusumi, who knew about thistle in advance , I am afraid that there will be twists and turns at that time.

However, ordinary students don't know the recent undercurrents of the students, and they just think that the college attaches great importance to this halberd eating, so they can't help but become more interested in this halberd eating.

Here, here! How is it, Isshiki-senpai, have you started to taste the dishes? Yuuhime and Marui who happened to be in class together just ran over, Yuuki was still panting, and Marui, who was barely keeping up with her footsteps, looked Half of my life was gone.

How should I put it... I came at three o'clock, and I still can't see what the two sides are cooking! Yi Sehui said.

Eh? It's three o'clock... It's been nine hours already? Don't know what you're doing? Yuuji also looked at the field at this time.

I saw that both sides are still in the stage of boiling soup. You must know that it is only more than an hour before the end of the food halberd, and it has been more than ten hours since the food halberd started!

It's true that they are all cooking soup. Now I can only see that Jiuwo-senpai boiled four pots of high soup, while Ah Xing specializes in one pot... By the way, isn't Jiuwo-senpai good at the two flavors of Chinese cuisine? Putting so much effort into it? It’s not about turning the broth into spicy soup, is it?” Liangzi asked doubtfully.

Chuangzhen corrected at this time: The so-called high soup dishes are different from the 'soup dishes' of Western food. They may also use soup instead of water, or as seasonings to enhance freshness and flavor...

It is said that both parties are already very tired now. After all, they have been cooking since six o'clock in the morning, but they stared at the soup in front of them without showing fatigue. Both parties only tasted the soup occasionally, and then added some new ingredients or Spices as an adjustment.

It wasn't until half past five that Jiugao took out an ingredient that everyone didn't expect, and didn't think it was used to make soup...

You really can hold your breath... Then watch it! My 'protagonist' is on the stage first!

I saw that Jiu I took it out according to the rules, and it was a few... small cabbages?
