After turning on the shower's spray head, Zhang Mingchuan washed away the filth on the surface of his body, while feeling the changes in his purified body, like an immortal who had just landed in the mortal dust.

"Now I meet that gang of outlaws in the mountains and forests, and I can easily subdue them all with my body. I can also cut off the cervical vertebrae of the slinger directly with one knife. Zhang Mingchuan, whose physical fitness has skyrocketed, has unprecedented self-confidence.

"When I have reached the first level of the Self-Refining Realm, I should be able to deal with Zhu Ji." The neatly dressed Zhang Mingchuan once again entered the mysterious space.

"Please cook a [perfect quality oil confided Zhu Xiong], hint: Zhu Zhu belongs to the branch bloodline of the divine beast nine-tailed fox, the current merit luck is low, the probability of survival is low, and work hard to accumulate merit and luck points." The display of the Gate on the left has changed.

"The probability of surviving is still low, and to reach the second level of the self-refining realm, it takes two thousand merit and luck points. At the current rate, I'm afraid I will have to wait another half a month. Zhang Mingchuan, who had just adapted to a fulfilling life, barely rested for a week, and felt a little uncomfortable.

"Something is wrong, are you there, chef?" Zhang Mingchuan, who turned on his mobile phone, saw the private message sent by Junjun taking you to eat Xijing.

"Here, what's wrong?" Zhang Mingchuan will ask.

"Are you primitive people who don't go online? Now that the Internet has been in an uproar, you don't know it until now? A lot of malicious rumors against your Shanhai Food Garden have suddenly popped up on the Internet, and they are slandering Shanhai Food Garden in all aspects. (￣△￣?)” Junjun took you to eat Xijing and told Zhang Mingchuan after a while.

"Everyone is saying that the rumor-monger is Tang Fengge, after filming you last time, Tang Fengge invited me to visit the store, and after I tasted it, I found that Tang Fengge's signature dish unicorn sea bass is indeed not as good as the steamed fish you made." Junjun took you to eat Xijing and continued.

"Tang Fengge? It looks familiar, but I don't think I have anything to do with them. It's unlikely that just because my steamed fish is better than his unicorn bass, just discredit me. Zhang Mingchuan just wants to cook quietly.

"How could it be, Tang Fengge's signature dish is unicorn sea bass, relying on this dish to maintain a group of high-end diners, in order to steadily expand its influence. It can be said that the unicorn perch is the foundation of Tang Feng Pavilion. And now because of the appearance of your steamed fish, Tang Fengge's business is also getting worse day by day. Junjun took you to eat Xijing and said.

"And some time ago, it was rumored that Tang Fengge was going to have a cooking duel with your Shanhai Restaurant, and even Tang Fengge was willing to bet on the star of the restaurant. For a time, the whole of Western Kyoto was in an uproar. "Junjun will take you to eat Xijing and tell you what I heard before.

"A culinary showdown where stars are the stakes. I didn't think of this method of quickly spreading fame among high-end diners and gourmets, and as long as I was on the recommended menu on the culinary association's website, the entire potential group of people in Xijing would think of me first when they wanted to eat it. Zhang Mingchuan, who happened to be idle, felt that he really needed a cooking showdown to show himself.

"I don't want to be too much of a deception with him, so it's a good choice to have a culinary showdown, which can not only make the rumors self-defeating, but also make Shanhai Food Court famous." Because Zhang Mingchuan has broken through the first layer of the self-refining realm, he can slightly change his height and body shape by fine-tuning the gaps between his bones. This is also the confidence that he now dares to appear in public places.

Of course, the appearance can't be changed for the time being, so this time he prepared a Pikachu hood in advance.

"Then why haven't I been notified of the cooking showdown from the Cuisine Association yet?" Zhang Mingchuan said to Junjun to take you to eat Xijing.

Later, the Cuisine Association issued a statement saying that Tang Fengge had not submitted an application, and the matter was closed. It's just that not long after this incident, these rumors spread on Xijing. Junjun took you to eat Xijing and said.

"Then let me take the initiative to apply this time." Zhang Mingchuan said calmly.

"Chef Da, can you help me get a pass, I want to go live! (*•̀ㅂ•́)و。 Junjun took you to eat Xijing was shocked by the news that Zhang Mingchuan was ready to take the initiative, and then thought that if it became an exclusive live broadcast in the anchor world, it would not be Heifer playing surfing.

"By the way, the chef is big, the culinary duel has always been a very serious matter, and it is a game that determines both victory and defeat, so you need to apply for a real-name application to show your face to participate." Junjun took you to eat Xijing, but I didn't expect Zhang Mingchuan to agree so happily. I thought of the traditional reminder of the cooking duel, after all, the last time Zhang Mingchuan was live broadcast at her house, he didn't even take off his mask when eating.

"Need to show your face with your real name? I'll just let the disciple in my kitchen apply, and I'm confident in him. Zhang Mingchuan pondered for a moment, and revealed the news that his disciple was competing for him to Junjun to take you to eat Xijing.

"Hey, disciple, such an important duel, is it okay to send only disciples?" Junjun took you to eat Xijing Hearing that Zhang Mingchuan assigned a disciple to represent Shanhai Food Garden, he was a little worried, after all, before there was no Shanhai Food Garden, Tang Fengge's unicorn perch also had a certain status in Xijing.

"This disciple of mine specializes in steamed meiyu, and his skills are already very mature, so I am very relieved." Zhang Mingchuan explained.

"Can you tell this news, I'm worried that I can't hold back such a powerful news. (,,•́.•̀,)"Junjun asked as he took you to eat Xijing.

"I'm above board, you can say whatever you want, and I'm sure the official website of the Cuisine Association will release the news in two days." Zhang Mingchuan asked Junjun to take you to eat Xijing, and said boldly with confidence.

Junjun's worry about taking you to eat Xijing is not superfluous, as soon as he broke off the contact with Zhang Mingchuan, he couldn't wait to start the live broadcast without makeup, and directly announced that in a few days, Shanhai Food Garden will send disciples to apply for a cooking showdown and challenge Tang Fengge, and she will go to the scene of the cooking showdown for a live broadcast, please fans and friends do not miss this exclusive live broadcast.

Cooking duels have always been fair and serious, and they are even more fatal to the loser, so unless the side has an absolute chance of winning, it is possible to invite others to come over for a public live broadcast, which is also a contempt for the other party.

Under normal circumstances, the two sides of the cooking duel are evenly matched, and the outcome is unpredictable, if their own side fails, the live broadcast will only expand the bad impact, but they will slap themselves in the face, so there are very few opportunities for the people to see the cooking duel.

Zhang Mingchuan first didn't understand this unspoken rule, and secondly, he also had absolute confidence in his cooking skills, thinking that he could expand his influence through live broadcast, which was also the result he was happy to see.

And when Junjun took you to eat Xijing and asked for a live broadcast just now, he also didn't mix other ideas, but just represented absolute confidence in Zhang Mingchuan's cooking skills.

The Xijing food circle has just discussed the news that Tang Fengge took the initiative to apply for a cooking showdown Shanhai Restaurant, but two days later, it was rumored that Shanhai Restaurant would send disciples to launch a cooking showdown against Tang Fengge.

In addition to the gourmets eating melons, the happiest are the loyal diners of Shanhai Restaurant, and the public opinion turmoil of the two sides scolding the war on the Internet has cultivated a comrade-like feeling for these loyal diners, and they are even more excited to see the coach take the initiative.

The most uncomfortable is Tang Fengge's Qiao's father and son, last time due to the kitchen people's mouth, after the news that Tang Fengge was going to apply for a culinary duel with Shanhai Restaurant, Qiao's father and son had a good rectification of the kitchen, and the sales were already declining.

Now that Shanhai Food Garden has openly applied for a cooking duel with Tang Fengge, it is indeed beyond the expectations of Qiao's father and son, the chef did not come forward in person, but sending an apprentice to challenge Tang Fengge made Qiao's father and son feel a deeper insult.

"If he dared to show his face, he wouldn't have even worn a mask when he came out of the live broadcast last time! This time the news is that his disciple represents the Shanhai Food Garden, and we still have hope. Qiao Fubao said to his son.

"Dad, this time Shanhai Food Garden publicly said that it would let the disciples represent the competition, but I didn't take us into account at all, I must play well, and I am bound to rub the sharp spirit of Shanhai Food Garden." Qiao Yuangu was confident that he would have no problem dealing with an apprentice, so he said to his father.

"This cooking showdown ......" Qiao Fubao paused for a moment and continued, "I'll play the competition myself!" ”

"Dad! The other party said that only one apprentice will be sent, even if I win the competition, it will not be praised, if you want to compete in person, even if you win, I am afraid that it will be ......" Qiao Yuangu didn't expect his father to be so cautious.

"I know what you say, but as long as you can win, nothing else is a problem! You have to remember that the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and the world will only remember the words of the winner. Qiao Fubao looked at his son who was still struggling with face and said.

"That's it, you can also let it go, this cooking showdown, I will play in person, I want to show the whole Xijing, I'm not too old to move." Qiao Fubao photographed the final decision.

"Have you heard, Shanhai Food Garden has sent a disciple to apply for a cooking showdown, and Qiao Lao of Tangfeng Pavilion is going to take action himself!" Li Mou, a gluttony in a teahouse, said while drinking tea.

"Is this Old Qiao of Tang Feng Pavilion too much to look up to this disciple of Shanhai Restaurant?" The tea friend at the same table said.

"What do you know, this Qiao Lao obviously wants to take this opportunity to brush up his sense of existence and stabilize Tang Fengge's position." Another big one said clearly.

"If you want me to say, the most unlucky thing is the representative disciple of Shanhai Food Garden, who just made his debut and encountered the ceiling of Xijing Qilin Perch, don't be sluggish from now on." The person next to him also interjected when he heard the conversation at this table.
