Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

Well... the aroma of the barbecue and the rich aroma of the sauce are completely blended together!

Judging from the depth of taste of this sauce, it should be a soup that is slowly boiled over a low fire, boiled dry and then thickened with cornstarch.

That's right, and the ingredients of this sauce should be very complicated! Chicken, ham, dried sea cucumber, dried squid, dried shrimp...

Well, there are also bamboo fungus, Hericium erinaceus, which are delicacies from the mountains... and even some matsutake!

Liu Maoxing also interjected at this time: That's right, this is the first process I started at the very beginning. I kept cooking the delicacies I had prepared in a casserole on low heat. After the soup subsided, I put the roasted meat first. Put it into it and cook together, and then blend the astringent and thick soup into a thickened sauce, as a pizza sauce, and use it together with the barbecue in the 'Mongolian BBQ Pizza'!

Sure enough! Barbecued meat...is it boiled after being roasted? No wonder the aroma of the soup has completely permeated it, but...

But it's hard to control the heat, right? It's easy to cover up the aroma of the grilled meat, or tarnish the aroma of the soup!

That's true, not only the size of the fire, but also the time of using the fire... If you are not careful, the flavor of the grilled meat will be completely destroyed.

And Liu Maoxing said with a reserved look at this time: Well, but in fact, as long as the control of the heat reaches the level of a general barbecue master, you can do almost the same!

As long as, can do almost...

Liu Maoxing's meaning is obvious, his control over the heat has surpassed the general barbecue master!

It's really self-confidence! But there is some truth to this self-confidence. Sward had to say.

After all, what Liu Maoxing said is indeed true...

The super-tactile sense that surpasses the limit of human beings, and the firework essence that symbolizes the perfection of firework - Liu Maoxing, who has mastered both of them at the same time, has reached the level of fire control from the Chinese era to the present. So far, the pinnacle of all chefs, it is impossible for ordinary barbecue masters to surpass Liu Maoxing in pure firework... unless they have a very special cooking heart in firework.

According to Liu Maoxing, most of the heart of the kitchen is to change the source of the ingredients to touch the soul of the diners.

But there are also very few, such as Kobayashi Gendan's greedy cat, which is equivalent to strengthening the ability of the cook itself... Maybe there is also an increase in the firework cooking heart.

Not to mention the audience off the stage, I was amazed at the high evaluation of Liu Maoxing by the judges...they actually directly endorsed his own boasting words!

At the same time, Rei Kawashima also made a preview in order to stir up the atmosphere: Contestant Liu Maoxing's Mongolian pizza was highly praised by the judges, so what will be the score for the last contestant Liu Maoxing who presented the pizza? Ha Shan Contestant Liang, can he keep his first place in Zone B? Let's wait and see!

That's right, because of Liu Maoxing's performance in the past and the reactions of the previous judges, Rei Kawashima directly compared Liu Maoxing with the current number one, Ha Shanliang.

And not only Rei Kawashima, the judges are continuing to taste the Mongolian Barbecue Pizza at this time, while comparing it with Ryo Hayama's Dapeng Spreading Wings Pizza...

In the hearts of every judge, it seemed that the eagle in the sky and the tiger on the grassland were fighting with each other!

(Ahem, let’s not correct Dongdong’s common sense. Although there are no tigers living in the grasslands for a long time, there were tigers on the grasslands before the extinction of the Xinjiang tiger or the Caspian tiger in the 20th century. Let’s first assume In the world of China, the Xinjiang tiger is not extinct...)

The Tigers' advantage is growing...

Although Liu Maoxing seems to use three kinds of meat in a messy manner, each kind of meat complements and blends with each other in terms of flavor!

This is also the characteristic of the most authentic Mongolian barbecue. It is actually said that the chef accompanying the army of Genghis Khan developed this initial recipe that is convenient for knights to use their shields to directly roast barbecue during high-intensity marches. Use beef, sheep, horse, chicken four kinds of meat.

However, the use of horse meat is mainly to make use of the horses that died in battle. In the dissemination of recipes later, horse meat was canceled, and how to reconcile the other three kinds of meat is also one of the mysteries of Mongolian barbecue!

After a while, the judges all opened their eyes, and then on the scoreboard, they pressed their own ratings for Liu Maoxing.

At this time, Liu Maoxing and Ye Shanliang should be the two least nervous in the audience...

Liu Maoxing knows his own position better than anyone else, and Ye Shanliang also used the God's Smell before to feel the level of Liu Maoxing's pizza!

20 points, 20 points, 19 points, 19 points, 20 points...

Here it is! The highest score is 98 points! The first-year juniors and juniors present here, as well as other viewers who missed the selection competition last autumn, may not know that contestant Liu Maoxing also won the A division in the preliminaries of the autumn selection competition last year. The highest score, and all five judges gave it full marks!

The autumn selection competition can be said to be only the pre-selection for this year's new top ten. In Yuanyue College, there is a saying that the new top ten over the years are all students who have performed well in the autumn selection competition...

And what is going on now is the first Top Ten Seat Competition in history. It can be said that last year's autumn selection contest is like a preview of the current Ten Outstanding Seat Competition among the sophomores. You can also see many The contestants who performed well in the autumn trials are now also showing their dazzling brilliance in the Battle for the Top Ten Seats!

Accompanied by Kawashima Rei's words, the wonderful replay of last autumn's trials was played on the big screen...

Liu Maoxing's 100 points in the preliminaries and the scene of winning the championship in the finals are all clearly featured in it.

Although Liu Maoxing can be considered satisfied with the score of 98 points, he is still a little puzzled.

Satisfied is because full marks are not so easy to obtain. The gap between 19 points and 20 points is definitely a gap level in the judges' minds!

Except that Sward gave Ye Shanliang 20 points too early, so he could only give Liu Maoxing the same score, the other four had already given higher scores than they gave Ye Shanliang.

Liu Maoxing even understood that if he and Ye Shanliang's submission order were changed, maybe it should be only about 95 points now, while Ye Shanliang's score would be reduced to 90 points.

It can be said that I was able to get three full marks, and Ye Shanliang also contributed to it!

After all, the grading system is different from the duel system. In the grading comparison of multiple people, the grading standards are bound to be subject to subjective influence.

For example, in the current B area, if Isshiki Hui, Oda Nobuna and others can put more pressure on Erina, Erina will not only have 92 points. If it is changed to A area, the hope of improving to 95 is very good. big.

But what Liu Maoxing didn't understand was that the only two judges who gave him 19 points were Gin Dojima and Kakinosuke Oizumi...

Both of them are undoubtedly very optimistic about Liu Maoxing, and they only gave Ye Shanliang 18 points before.

Since it is a scoring system, the judges will naturally have a reference in mind, because Ye Shanliang was a bit better than the others before, so he got 92 points, and at the same time raised Liu Maoxing's reference score!

Logically speaking, Liu Maoxing felt that Ye Shanliang was given 18 points, and if he was used as a reference, giving himself 20 points would not be considered an overreach at all.

At the same time, he also understood that Gin Dojima and Kakinosuke Oizumi would never intentionally avoid perfect marks...

That is to say... in the hearts of the two of them, there is a reference figure who suppressed Liu Maoxing!

After all, since it is the Top Ten Seat Contest, the standard for full marks is undoubtedly the undisputed strength of the first seat.

Dojima Gin is known as the legend and the strongest graduate of Totsuki Academy, and Oizumi Kakinoshin is also the old man of Totsuki Academy. They should have the most understanding of the strength of the Ten Heroes.

According to Liu Maoxing's previous thinking, when they consider other people, they will use the overall level of this year's students as a reference, but the full score will definitely be based on the strongest ten outstanding as a reference...

And this strongest should be Gin Dojima!

When Dojima Gin was at Yuanyue Academy, the peak of his skills was at the graduation ceremony, when he passed the three-star cooker assessment. At that time, the culinary world of the island country was excited, and the status of Yuanyue Academy was further enhanced.

However, Liu Maoxing now thinks that the previous Mongolian barbecue pizza should already be at the level of three stars!

After all, it is the result of Liu Maoxing's culinary skills, food control, plus super smell, super touch and pyrotechnic essence, as well as the spice multivariate inequality used in the improvement, etc.

If others gave Liu Maoxing 19 points, he would be mentally prepared, but the actions of Gin Dojima and Kakinosuke Oizumi were beyond his expectation!

Could it be that... in the hearts of Gin Dojima and Kakinosuke Oizumi, there are stronger Ten Heroes?

The faces of the first seat hanging between the moon and the sky flashed in Liu Maoxing's mind...

Who is the one? Shinomiya Kojiro? It seems unlikely!

But at this moment, before Liu Maoxing could come up with anything, or even wait for him to say anything to Ye Shanliang, Liangzi from Division B suddenly ran over!

Judging by her face and panting appearance, it doesn't look like an announcement of good news...

Ah, Ah Xing! It's not good, Division B... Division B...Erina and Xiaohui... Ryoko said out of breath.

Before she could finish speaking, just hearing these two names, Liu Maoxing's heart tightened immediately, and he didn't even care about the testimonials and the like, he rushed off the field and ran towards the B competition area.

At the same time, Liu Maoxing was full of doubts, even more surprised than himself that he didn't get full marks from Gin Dojima and Kakinosuke Oizumi!

Erina and Xiaohui... what will happen?

With Erina's strength, it is impossible for her to be eliminated in the qualifiers, and Xiaohui's cooking skills... Although it cannot be said that she is completely sure of being shortlisted for the finals, even if she fails, Ryoko shouldn't have such an expression and tone!

Is there any danger in the game?

When he came to the B competition area, Liu Maoxing found that the arena was very quiet. Most of the students were staring at the arena in a daze. A small number of students who looked like Ji Xing Liao wanted to rush forward, but they were stopped by the security personnel. look...

But at this time, there were only two cooks on the field, one of whom was sitting on the ground in a daze, while the other looked at each other with a numb and indifferent expression.

Among them, the one who sat on the ground as if he had lost even his confidence was Tian Suohui, while the other winner with a deadpan face was...Erina?

Erina! What happened? Liu Maoxing immediately shouted from the audience.

After Erina heard Liu Maoxing's voice, she didn't respond at all.

No matter how carefully she observed, at most she could only see a momentary hesitation in her eyes, which was immediately replaced by indifference!

Wen Xu was beside Liu Maoxing at this time, and simply explained what happened before...

Just after the scores of all the players in the qualifiers in Area B had been given out, Kei Tasho and Teruki Kuga tied for fifth place. When the second vote was about to take place, Ji Nakiri proposed an extra match on the spot.

At first, everyone was still wondering who Nakiriji would let the extra match be for nothing, but at this moment, I don't know what method Nakiriji used, but after saying to Erina, It's time to eat, Erina Rina suddenly became as if she was out of control!

Erina suddenly raised her hand expressionlessly, expressing that she would play off with Tian Suohui on the spot, and the winner would enter the final...

Only then did Senzaemon realize that the previous influence of Nakiri Ji on Erina had not been completely removed!

And he was trying to stop this extra match, but Tian Suohui took the initiative to challenge.

Apparently, Erina saw that something was wrong with Erina, and wanted to use her spiritual healing to bring Erina back to normal...

Because Tian Suohui's voluntary consent is equivalent to fulfilling the condition of food halberd, the bet is that the loser will withdraw from the competition, and the topic is the ingredients left by everyone at the scene... Senzaemon has no reason to stop it!

In order to save Erina, Tian Suohui also specially set the rule of both parties must try each other...

After the two sides tasted each other at the beginning, Erina really wanted to restore her sanity, but the effect disappeared immediately. Instead, Tiansuohui's conditions were in the hands of Nakiri Ji. It was like a huge blow, and he sat down on the ground immediately, losing all fighting spirit and confidence!

In Wenxu's words: This is obviously not right! With Xiaohui's character, even if he loses to Erina, he will only feel that his skills are not enough...

Indeed, Xiao Hui, who has always lacked the belief of winning, will appear in such a situation of being extremely depressed after losing, obviously something is wrong!

You bastard! Liu Maoxing gave Nakiri Ji a vicious look.

Immediately after that, I ignored him and rushed to the arena...

It's not about estimating the status of Nakiri Ji's General Counsel or Erina's biological father, but more concerned about the current situation of the two girls on the court!

Several security personnel from the Central Gourmet Agency wanted to stop Liu Maoxing, but they wisely gave up after watching him grab the security baton and bend it... and a scalp-numbing aura emanating from his body. This kind of behavior of praying man's arms...
