Chapter 317: The Qualifiers Begin!

"Hello everyone! I've made everyone wait for a long time, I'm Rei Kawashima, the emcee of Area A of this year's 'Top Ten Masters Seat Battle Qualifiers'! I hope that the new annual students and juniors will support me more in the future! ”

Rei Kawashima's voice rang out in the venue. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It seems that even if she becomes a second-year student, Rei Kawashima has no intention of changing her hosting style.

However, the new first-year boys also eat this set, and the number of fans continues to expand......

Of course, at the same time, the number of girls who don't like her is also increasing rapidly!

Today is already the day of the qualifiers for the "Ten Outstanding Seats Competition", in addition to two groups, a total of 50 players, although the audience can not be said to be absent, but basically more than 400 official students, as well as a large number of students who have been recruited nearly 1,000 students of the "central gastronomic institutions", are basically distributed in the two arenas.

In addition, it can be seen that in some special seats, there are also authoritative figures in the culinary industry as special guests to pay attention to the competition that will determine the next "Ten Masters of the Far Moon".

"After this battle, I don't know how much the academy will vacate...... And I didn't expect that even the quota for the competition was vacant! Is that right? Hayama. Liu Pleiades sighed.

What Liu Pleiades means is that no matter which side wins, the students will be cleared in large quantities......

Ye Shan Liang's cooking table was next to him, leaning slightly on the cooking table at this time, smelling the top cinnamon like a cigar, and after hearing Liu Yuexing's words, he said, "Who knows?" But if you don't have talent, it's a waste to participate in the competition. ”

That's right! In the previous grouping, Liu Pleiades found that there were only 23 people in each group, and the four people who were shortlisted before, including Nantaro...... Already abstained before the game!

Maybe it's because Nagi doesn't think it's worth designing their own recipes for the competition, and they don't have the ability to compete on their own......

"You've been training alone this week?" Liu Pleiades asked meaningfully.

"Well, I'm going to blow your mind." Ye Shan Liang's tone was very confident, and at the same time, the "thistle" brooch pinned to his chest made people feel particularly dazzling!

Everyone in the Far Moon Academy knows what this brooch represents in the Far Moon Academy - it belongs to the students of the Central Gastronomy Institution!

Moreover, Ryo Hayama is wearing the highest grade "Golden Thistle" brooch, which means that at the same time, he belongs to the "Central Food Agency" and can participate in all the competitions of the Far Moon Academy, except for his own expense, all permissions are equivalent to the existence of the Far Moon Student......

Liu Pleiades actually told him in Chuangzhen that when Ye Shanliang was always mysterious in the past week, he already had some ominous premonitions.

At the same time, on the day of the competition, Liu Pleiades found that there was also an unexpected person in the B division, who wore a "golden thistle" brooch, that is, the oil girl Haruki!

Liu Pleiades also reacted later, the idea of Haruki the oil girl wanting to create a research society by herself, although it is inconsistent with the purpose of the "central gastronomy organ" to prohibit unofficial innovation, but if Nagi is really optimistic about him, he will use this as a condition to win over......

Miscalculated!

But even so, Liu Pleiades didn't worry too much......

What about Ryo Hayama? What about the freshman representatives? Let's talk about it through the qualifiers! What's more, if you pass the qualifiers, you can also snipe in the finals!

Five finalists from each region will be "shuffled in order" for a one-on-one match, with the winner determining the top 10 seats, followed by a qualifying battle.

It's nominally "out of order", but everyone knows that it will definitely be five people from the Commander-in-Chief Department and the General Advisor Department, facing off against each other!

At the same time, in the B division, Yuai Sasaki was also reading the opening statement, and there was no longer a feeling of "timidity......

Liu Pleiades was also surprised when he was in Hokkaido, this shy girl actually passed the grade assessment without any danger, and compared with half a year ago, the current Yuai is also much more generous and dignified, and at this time she is wearing a different school uniform from Kawashima Rei, but a dress that looks more formal......

Although it is not the same type compared to Rei Kawashima, and it seems that her grasp of the audience's emotions is not as professional as Rei Kawashima, she has become a master of ceremonies who can take charge on her own!

Area B seems to attract more attention, because from the perspective of "outsiders", the most concerned "seed players" are undoubtedly Erina Nagikiri, Liu Pleiasung, Isshiki Hui and Kuga Teruki, who took the initiative to retire from the position of ten masters.

And now among these four people, except for Liu Pleiasion, who is in Area A, the other three are in Area B......

However, the students of the real Yuanyue Academy naturally understand that whether it is Area A or Area B, there are also strong people who want to get ahead...... No flukes!

"The question 'Pizza' has a time limit of three hours, can be completed at any time, can be tasted by the judges at any time, and the five judges will give a total score of 100 points, and the top five in each group will be shortlisted...... The cooking begins! ”

With the sound of the declaration, everyone got busy.

"Mr. Horikoshi, I heard that you are very optimistic about the former ten masters over there."

"That's right, I believe that he is talented enough to take the position of the Ten Masters...... And even more than that! ”

"Speaking of which, Mr. Oizumi and Mr. Dojima are also optimistic about that student, right? Will it put too much pressure on him? ”

"No, he's not going to be beaten by that pressure...... To be precise, he probably didn't see this as pressure, did he? ”

"Ahh This、This feeling is...... Food? Is he really only 16 years old? ”

Of the five judges in Section A, three are "old friends", Mr. Horikoshi, a gourmand from Hokkaido, Gingin, Nagadojima, the chief chef of Enzuki Hotel, and Kakinosumu Oizumi, the founder of the Washoku Revival Association!

The other two are also foodies who are also well-known in the international culinary world, and food writer Yuta Ogawa.

I saw that at this time in Area A, Liu Pleiades went all out as soon as he made a move, and many students who were accomplished in food sense discovered his "food royal"!

"This guy is actually a 'handsome talent'?" Sakura Saito looked at Liu Pleiades in surprise. "In that case......

"Huh? Who's that girl over there? ”

"It seems to be...... Freshman? ”

"It's from the Saito family...... It's the current generation who claims to have been traveling the world at the age of ten, right? ”

"Saito? She is not an academic, why did she suddenly come to Yuanyue Academy? ”

The judges were surprised to find that there is actually another person who has "Food Royal", although the strength is not as good as Liu Yuyuan, but it also radiates out the sense of food, and it does belong to "Food Royal" undoubtedly!

During the Sengoku period of the island country, "Shisen" and "Shigo" were regarded as symbols of "shogun" and "handsome" respectively, and Saito, as a family that has been handed down since the Sengoku period, is naturally accustomed to using ancient names.

"Saito, that guy is your sister, right? Is it really as powerful as you say? ”

In the audience, from the hands of Kinokuni Nening, Edaziya Ruiyama, who took over the current position of the top ten masters, said to Saito Hiroaki, who stayed as a lecturer at the Central Gastronomy Institute after graduation.

"That's right, don't underestimate her ......"

It's a pity that Eizan doesn't know anything about food, and it is possible that he can't really "indulge" in cooking and will never know anything, so he doesn't feel the existence of "food".

While the judges were surprised by the appearance of two students with "food royal", they also found that the number of students with food sense in just one competition area was already more than they imagined!

"Huh? The girl's appetite ...... It feels a little stronger than 'Food'! Horikoshi sighed.

As a top gourmet, he can also perceive the unique momentum brought by the taste and food.

"That's right, it's said to be a rare three-year student who came from the transfer, and it's called ...... Liu Yuyuan, right? ”

"Liu Yuyuan? Liu Pleiades's cousin? This was Horikoshi's first reaction!

When cooking alone, the "sense of food" is not necessarily weaker than the "food royal", but it lacks the ability to collaborate, and Liu Yuyuan, who has been inconspicuous before, is now interpreting this.

Of course, she will also explain in a while that a strong "sense of food" does not necessarily mean that cooking skills are high......

"Saito, if you were to eat halberds with your sister now, what would be the chances of winning?" Eizan asked.

"It should ...... Half of each. Saito Sakura, who is two years older than Sakura Saito, said this, which is equivalent to "admitting defeat"!

Ruishan looked at him and said, "Don't you be so cowardly before you fight?" As an academic, your skills have gone through a complete period of rapid development, and you are still one of the top ten masters of the distant month...... Even against the geniuses of the 'Traveling School', it will not be ......."

"No, I say that because you don't understand her strength yet!"

"Wait, are you sure that Oda Shina in Zone B has the same cooking skills as your sister, or even better?"

"That's right." Saito Zongming cherishes the words like gold.

Nagi cut thistle doesn't seem to have any preparations, and the original four-person crowd has been directly abandoned, but the "Central Food Agency" still has its own plan!

First of all, he rebelled against Ryo Hayama and instigated Haruki the oil girl, and secondly, the relationship between Oda Shinna and Saito Sakura can be used......

The backgrounds of the two are destined to make it difficult to win over them.

But because the two are bound to be hostile, you can take advantage of this and do the opposite, as long as one of them is pushed to the opposite side, the other will have a certain tacit understanding with them even if he will not directly join the "central food agency"!

And because Saito Shoaki has already taken refuge in the relationship of the "central food agency", Nagi Kiri Thistle chose to push Saito Sakura to the opposite side......

That's why she stayed at Polestar Room!

That's right, although Saito Sakura is nominally of the same clan as Sakura Saito, in fact the relationship is so bad that it is almost impossible to coexist......

The blood relationship between the two is actually not so close, and even this has to start more than 500 years ago.

More than 500 years ago, during the Sengoku period of the island country, the Saito clan was the daimyo of Mino, the Oda clan was the daimyo of Owari, and the famous Oda Nobunaga was the governor of the Oda clan at that time, and he was the son-in-law of Saito Michizo.

At that time, Saito Michizo, the governor of the Saito family, had to abdicate because of the rumors of "disrespect for cooking", and temporarily passed the governor to his son Saito Yoshiryu, but because of the influence that Michizo still had to offer him food for him, he praised the second son and the third son, but criticized the eldest son, Yoshiryu......

This was considered by Yoshiryu to be a symbol of Michizo's preparation to change the position of governor, so in the end Mino had a father-son battle, and finally in the battle of the Nagara River, Michizo and Yoshiryu met in front of the two armies for a culinary duel, the topic was the ingredients in the Nagara River, and the result was that Yoshiryu's ayu cuisine was better than Michisan's eel cuisine, so the Yoshiryu army defeated the Michisan army under the momentum.

Oda Nobunaga, who originally came to support Michisan, had already received the news that Michizo was dead and Yoshiryu occupied Mino before he arrived at the battlefield, so he had to retreat......

Later, in order to contain Nobunaga, Yoshiryu also rebelled against his brother Oda Nobuhiro, but Nobunaga knew in advance that he used the ancient Chinese dish "Dou Qi Boiled Beans" to influence Oda Nobuhiro without causing much trouble.

And in the end, after Yoshiryu died of illness, Mino still fell into the hands of Oda Nobunaga, until hundreds of years passed, the Warring States period had long ended, and the two families had been hostile to each other!

Although Saito Sakura and Saito Sakura are nominally members of the Saito family, and both use the family crest of the Saito family, but in fact, the blood relationship has been separated for hundreds of years, and Saito Sakura belongs to the Saito Yoshiryu lineage, and Saito Sakura belongs to the Saito Yoshiryu lineage, and Saito Sakura belongs to the Saito Sunshiro lineage......

Although they are both Saito clans, but after the unification of the two veins, they have always been inseparable, and after Saito Sakura was born, it made the people of Saito Sakura have a sense of crisis, and sent the most promising Saito Sakura to Yuanyue for further study, hoping to compete with Saito Sakura.

And Saito Shoaki, who found that he could never compare with Saito Sakura, accepted it without hesitation after Nagi cut thistle handed over the olive branch! Trying to strengthen themselves in the central gastronomic organs, the usual possibility of strengthening themselves......

At this time, in the A division, although the game had just started, it was already full of gunsmoke.

"Food? What needs to be on the field is not that kind of thing, but ...... Imperial aroma! ”

Ye Shan Liang, who took the lead in preparing sauces, just opened the bottles and cans in front of him, and mixed the seasonings and spices inside in a certain proportion seemingly easily and casually, and immediately an appetizing aroma spread across the field......

"It's not roasted yet, but it already has such a rich, no-brainering aroma? It is worthy of a genius in the use of spices......" Oizumi Kakino Jin looked at Hayama Ryo and said.

However, Liu Pleiades ignored his provocation at all, and took care of himself to carry the wooden barrel he had prepared, which was mostly half a person high......

"Huh? It should be ......" Dojima seemed to see something.

Miyoko Hojo is also in Area A at this time, and next to her is the former Ten Masters, Ji Zhiguo Ningning!

"I've already heard from Ah Xing...... Why would you want to be a 'puppet'? It's unbelievable that the few female ten heroes I once admired have fallen to this point! ”

As a feminist, Miyoko Hojo feels the most unacceptable to Kino Kuni Ningning's choice...... If she just took refuge in the central gastronomy agency, she wouldn't be so excited, at most it was just different from her cooking philosophy, but now she has become a representative of Miyoko's mind to "rely too much" on men!

"Puppet? The meaning of cooking is not limited to the cooking itself, and if you don't even understand it, you are the real puppet. Ji Zhiguo Ning Ning replied expressionlessly.

At the same time, it happens that the cooking table is numbered, as well as Keigo Akido and Mito Yumei......

"Hahaha, you're rumored to be Mito Yumei, who is very good at meat cooking, right? The title of No.1 meat cuisine is changing hands today! Keigo Akido looked excited.

Yu Mei looked at this fat man inexplicably, and said indifferently: "This is the reason why you put your briefs on your head?" ”

It's not the first time that Keigo Akimichi has been caricatured as "briefs" with a kind of hood that shows a round hole on the left and right, and his hair can be released from it......

"It's a breathable cooking hat! Not briefs! ”

"Oh, since you want the title of 'Daughter of the King of Meat' so much, then take it yourself." It's not just that she despises the year, but Mito Yumei is more confident than before.

"Hmph, from now on, 'Daughter of the King of Meat' will be my title!" Keigo Akido hasn't realized that he and the "princess" are not on the same side at all!

At the same time, the intensity of the "fighting situation" in Area B is no less intense......

Among the five judges in Area B, there are also three who are everyone's "old friends", namely Leonora, the current head of Yuanyue International, and the two-star Michelin certifier and gourmand Shigeyuki Koda, who has always been optimistic about Liu Pleiades, and one who no one expected, the youngest of the ten judges!

"Alah! Xiao Yuanguo is a little nervous, it doesn't matter, didn't you also have the experience of returning to Yuanyue Academy as a judge during the autumn selection competition? Leonora said in somewhat broken island Chinese.

That's right, the third is none other than Yuanyue's Ten Outstanding Graduates, although he is less than twenty years old, but he has already served as the chef of the star-rated restaurant Chunguo Pavilion!

"But compared to your predecessors, I ...... I still have a lot to be desired. Yuan Guo said that she probably always felt that she almost messed things up last time! Finally, Dojima Silver and the Commander-in-Chief will revise the rules......

"I heard that in the autumn selection competition, when Miss Yuanguo was the judge, she once gave a 'tie' verdict, right?" Kada Shigenojin asked.

Speaking of this, Yuan Guo said even more shyly: "That's right, my cultivation in tasting is not enough, and ......"

"No, then I think you already have the most important qualities as a professional certifier, follow your heart, and that's it." Instead, Koda praised.

And at this moment, Leonora suddenly smiled and said: "Ho Ho Ho, in fact, it may be that we are thinking too much, Xiao Yuanguo is 'nervous' about other things, it is said that before the star rating of Chunguo Pavilion, Xiao Yuanguo once 'eloped' with Liu Pleiades, right?" ”

"Ahh That, that's actually ...... Don't talk nonsense, Lady Leonora......" The garden fruit immediately panicked.

Kada decisively decided not to dabble in the topic of the two women, but to return his attention to the field.

Whether it is inside or outside the academy, everyone's most concerned about it is naturally Erina, Kuga Teruki and Isshiki Hui!

Even the "most inconspicuous" Hisame Teruki in comparison is the former ten masters who voluntarily stepped down, and Erina Nagikiri is the owner of the "Tongue of God" who has attracted much attention since childhood, and has always been regarded as the existence of the representative of the new generation of chefs in the island country, as for the Isshiki Hui, who has been promoted to three years old, it was once the favorite for the first seat of the year in the prediction!

And at this moment, on the cooking table next to Erina, a girl wearing a sexy version of a red kimono is more eye-catching than her in terms of visual effects......

"The Queen of the Far Moon? Hehe, I heard that some people who don't know the so-called are touted as the first person in the island country's culinary industry and the younger generation? So let's see who can dominate the culinary world of the island country! Oda Shinna provoked Erina directly.

However, Erina only looked at the person's expression with her queen's nostrils, glanced at her, and smiled disdainfully......

At the same time, she is not the only one who has been provocative in her year!

"Hey, earth girl, you were the fifth to complete the qualifiers before, right?" Kaori Yamanaka said to Megumi Tadoko next to her.

"The earth girl is calling me, right? That's right...... It's just a coincidence. Tian said modestly.

Seeing that the other party is actually very comfortable with the contemptuous name of "soil girl"? Kaori Yamanaka is even more upset!

"Hehe, it seems that you are also a master of 'soul cooking'? Able to play with people's hearts to this extent......"

"Huh? Playing, playing with ......" Megumi Tansoko was surprised by Tanaka's statement, but before she could correct it, the other party interrupted her again......

"Then I'll give it a try! Who's in control of the mind? ”

"Competition? That...... I'll learn a lot from Yamanaka! Megumi Tazo said immediately.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Hum! Use such a fake ...... for 'peers' too" Yamanaka apparently still thinks that Tanzo Megumi is now "acting", but just as she was about to say something, a pungent smell interrupted her words.

"Hmm! This taste is ...... Haruki, that guy! Hey? Wait, this ...... There seem to be two sources? Yamanaka looked at him suspiciously.

It was discovered that in addition to the oil girl Haruki, there was another female student who seemed to be performing some kind of black magic, which was also one of the sources of the pungent smell...... (To be continued.) )
