Chapter 177: The Dragon Race is coming
Chiyo Shrine, located in the Osaka area, Chiyo Shrine has a transcendent status, not only because they are responsible for assessing the special chefs in the neon cuisine world, but also because Chiyo Shrine is the family with the longest history of neon halberds.
Before IGO officially became a world gastronomy organization, perfected the halberd regulations, and took control of the judging of large halberds, the people of Chiyo Shrine were in charge of judging the large-scale cooking competitions in the neon cuisine world.
Chiyo Shrine has always maintained absolute neutrality and impartiality, which is why it has such a transcendent status.
In the sea opposite Chiyo Shrine, there has always been a large competition venue, countless large and small venues, and the main venue can accommodate 30,000 spectators at the same time.
It was only after igo moved into Neon and took over the work of the judges that the venue slowly fell into disuse, and most of the time it was used as a landmark in Osaka for tourists to enjoy.
Now, the Dragon Race is about to begin, an international competition involving the entire culinary world, and there is no better place for the whole Neon than here.
And this competition also involves the ultimate ownership of the legendary kitchenware, and there is no other venue that can afford such an honor.
"Wow~ It's so big......"
"During the training camp, I only took a few looks from afar, and I realized that it was so magnificent up close."
"It's a pity that the competition venue of such a scale is actually idle, it's really dizzy."
"That's right, I just don't know when the teacher will play."
"Come on, the time is almost up, and all the participating teams will gather together when the draw is drawn."
All the students of Yuanyue got together, even the five Si Yingshi who had already graduated, they were not in a hurry to start the Huaxia Tour, the Dragon Race was very important to Yang Cao, they would definitely not miss it, and they also wanted to see how far Yang Cao's full strength could reach.
The ten members of the "Divine Beasts" did not return to Huaxia immediately, they were still very interested in participating in such a grand event, and they were very excited to see this kind of world-class top event, not to mention whether they could learn something, even if they were pure spectators.
"You say...... Let's wait a minute, is it to cheer for Yuanyue, or to cheer for the teacher? Yoshino asked the others.
"Of course, it's to cheer for Brother Yang Cao!"
"Go cheer on the teacher!"
"Of course it's the teacher!"
……
Everyone has always decided to cheer for Yang Cao, the preliminary competition of the special chef was held separately, and before the semi-finals, they were distributed in various venues, although they were people from the Yuanyue family, but their hearts were towards Yang Cao.
"Oh? Is it? Do you want to cheer for Xiao Cao? ”
"Of course! Hmm......" Everyone replied as they should, but the next second they froze, and their heads looked back as stiff as a machine.
I saw Nagi Senzaemon with a black face, standing behind the students like a black demon returning from hell.
"Total Total Total Total ...... Commander-in-Chief......"
"I, I, I...... We ......"
"Go, why don't you go?" Nagi Senzaemon smiled, but it was too good, no one dared to move, and even the other viewers around watched this scene and kept retreating, and the surrounding area became a vacuum.
"Grandpa, Brother Yang Cao won't participate in the special chef competition, so we'll go and cheer for Yuanyue!" The cunning and clever Alice finally thought of a suitable excuse and immediately defended it.
"Yes, yes, yes! Alice was right! The crowd immediately transformed into a flock of chicks and pecked at the air.
"Humph!"
As the saying goes, being old and not dying is a thief, and Nagi Senzaemon doesn't know that this group of little ghosts is fooling him.
In fact, they really don't have any opinion on going to cheer for Yang Cao, they can have the current growth and achievements, all brought by Yang Cao, and for Yang Cao, Nagi Senzaemon has treated him as his own child since he was a child, and he is a proper grandson-in-law candidate.
But you can't say it in public, right? I don't want to lose face with Yuanyue!
And there is no hesitation at all, even if it is pretended, it is a little easier to feel better, it is really unbearable for uncles, and aunts can't bear it!
……
As time passed, the main stadium of the University was full, and as the time approached, the scene slowly quieted down, and there was a tense atmosphere.
At this moment, Chiyo Mie appeared again as a host, causing a boom.
"Hello everyone! I'm the host Mie Chiyo! Welcome friends from all over the world to come and watch the "Dragon Competition"!
I think you're already familiar with the rules of this competition, so I won't waste any more time.
The first thing to do is the first stage of the competition, and in the first stage, all the representative teams will be disrupted and a draw will be held for the knockout round! Each round of the tournament is held synchronously, so please decide in advance which game you want to watch.
At this point, there will be a group draw of lots, with the opponents of the first round being the absolute first, and then the theme of the competition will be decided, with two days of preparation time between each round.
Now, all the teams from this tournament are invited to appear! ”
"Oh~!"
The deafening cheers shook the entire venue, and under the cheers, nearly twenty teams entered in an orderly manner from several directions.
"That's my French team! The leader is the national treasure-level Lin Chef Kelier? Adolph! He's the first chef in my country! ”
"The first chef in France is not George? Lubpine? ”
"You're behind the news, George? Lu Busong lost to Huaxia's "Heavy Pupil" Yang Cao in a halberd, lost everything and quit the culinary world. ”
"What did you say!?"
"What? Defy? ”
"You!"
"The Asan team is here!"
"There is also the Malay team, the Italian team, that is the Bac Ninh family of the neon royal four families! They actually came alone! ”
……
The first to appear are teams from large and small organizations and countries around the world, but they are not the protagonists of this dragon competition.
"It's coming! It's the far moon! Far Moon's team! ”
"And Igo! igo also appeared! ”
"That's it! Gourmet Meeting! How dare they openly participate in such a competition? Aren't you afraid of being caught? ”
The audience finally saw the three heavyweight teams on the stage, and the mood went crazy again.
And the last two teams, they even forgot to breathe.
"Huaxia's team!"
"It's still two teams!"
"The bright culinary world, the dark culinary world, hehe, it seems that Huaxia is determined to win."
"Isn't it? I don't know who Chef Lin is on the other side of the dark cooking world, but on the other side, it's "Heavy Pupil" leading the team! He's probably the strongest chef yet! ”
……
Yang Cao walked into the venue side by side with the team and Yan Ruyu and his party, although it was unintentional, but the royal temperament exuded was shocking to everyone, and all the teams subconsciously separated to both sides, and took the initiative to give C to them.
I said...... Xiao Cao, you ...... Is it necessary? Dojima Gin's team with Entozuki was next to the Bright Cuisine Realm, looking at this scene with a depressed expression.
"Grandpa said, if I lose face today, I will go to the end of the world......" Yang Cao whispered with a straight face.
"Poof~ Did he convince the old lady?" Dojima Silver choked on a mouthful of saliva and asked in a low voice.
"If grandma knew, it would be grandpa himself who would wander the world."
"And what are you afraid of?"
"Grandpa is going to wander the world, and he will definitely take me."
"Uh...... All right. ”
The corners of Tang Daoyin's mouth twitched, he knew that this kind of thing Old Man Yang Zhong really did it, with Yang Cao here, the old lady missed Yang Cao, so she would hurriedly look for him to go back, and the old man naturally went back.
Therefore, none of Yang Cao's family members are normal people!
……
According to the guidance of Chiyo Mie, the leaders of each team, Lin Chef, came to the stage to start the lottery.
France's team leader, Colier? Adolf also deliberately approached Yang Cao.
"Boy, this time, I'll make you pay!"
"Huh."
In the face of such a threat, Yang Cao glanced at Keli? Adolf glanced at it, didn't say anything, and just drew lots and left, which was purely brain-dead.
George? When Lubson was still there, you were the second in 10,000 years, and he could be tortured and killed by himself, you? It's just a ......
Coincidentally, Yang Cao and the French team met in the first round, which is really a narrow road.
However, in the face of the provocative eyes of the French side, Yang Cao and his party chose to ignore it.
It's not that they are arrogant, among all the teams present, the players of Yuanyue, IGO and the Food Club, except for the two teams in Huaxia who can arouse some interest, their opponents are always each other.
