Looking at the score of the current player rating ranking displayed on another electronic screen next to the big screen, Zhu Ming's face showed a little pride.

As the new generation of the well-known family of imperial spirit chefs, she should be the best among the royal spirit chefs of the same level.

"Thank you, judges!"

After bowing politely to the thirty senior judges on the judges' bench, Zhu Ming left the venue with a smile on her face and sat down in the special viewing seat specially prepared for the contestants.

She had already completed the judging before her, and the other contestants sitting in the audience threw jealous eyes, but Zhu Ming ignored all these eyes, raising her head like a proud swan.

After Zhu Ming, new players appeared one after another, but their scores were not enough to threaten Zhu Ming, which made Zhu Ming more and more calm.

"Ding—"

Another bell rang, and the kitchen door belonging to Tang Xie opened.

Tang Xie walked out with a tense face, and immediately set his eyes on the electronic screen that recorded the current ranking of players.

didn't see the name he wanted to see, and the disappointment in Tang Xie's eyes swept away.

Isn't Qin Lang finished yet?

In that case, let him be one step ahead this time!

Then, his eyes fell on Zhu Ming's name.

Not very familiar, surnamed Zhu...

Could it be the Zhu family?

Forget it, it doesn't matter.

Although the score of 91.2 is very high, thinking of the dish he prepared today, Tang Xie is confident that he will get a higher rating.

Taking a deep breath, he pushed the kitchen cabinet cart to the judging table quickly.

"Hello judges."

Tang Xie adjusted his expression and voice to the best state, and then slowly spoke in an unhurried tone, "The dish I prepared today is called Acacia, please allow me to present it to the judges." ”

After speaking, he slowly opened the door of the kitchen cabinet cart and delivered the delicate dishes that were still shrouded in mist to the judges present.

In the close-up, the audience in the arena saw the full details of the dish for the first time.

For a while, exclamations came one after another.

Acacia is a dish with an incomparably delicate appearance.

It cuts all kinds of vegetables into very fine silk and weaves them into a beautiful bird's nest, and then carves two lifelike mandarin ducks, one male and one female, from the vegetables in the bird's nest.

Silk, homophonic thoughts.

This dish not only has a delicate appearance, but also a beautiful meaning.

If the taste does not fall off the chain, then the dish will get a high score, which is almost a certainty.

Zhu Ming, who was on the player's viewing seat, stared slightly, and couldn't help but sit up straight.

This dish made her feel threatened.

As the tasting of the judges began, the voice of Tang Xie's introduction echoed over the entire Dongxia Arena.

He kept his tone soft and gentle, but his eyes flashed with confidence.

This time's acacia is not like the last time when the dragon was carved and the phoenix was painted.

Not only does it look stunning, but it also tastes just as good.

"Let's congratulate the Tang Xie players with warm applause!"

After the tasting session, the host's voice was a little excited, taking over the introduction of the dishes that Tang Xie had just ended, echoing in the sky above the Dongxia Arena.

"Remove the highest score, remove the lowest score, the final score of the Tang Association player is..."

The host's voice was a little longer than usual.

Tang Xie couldn't help but clench his fists.

He wanted to know how he scored.

And in the field, there are many equally nervous spectators.

This tense atmosphere lasted until the host stopped selling off the guanzi and simply had to report Tang Xie's score.

"92.4 points!"

Steady!

A look of joy quickly appeared on Tang Xie's face.

He didn't believe that Qin Lang could still make dishes with a higher score than this!

And Zhu Ming, who was on the spectator seat, watched the new name on the electronic screen press on his head, his eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Tang Xie, who was walking towards Shi Shiran here, and his eyes rose with war intent.

Damn it!

Tang Xie didn't notice the resentment of a certain girl in the player's viewing seat, he found an empty place to sit down, and looked at the kitchen where Qin Lang was with burning eyes.

He was looking forward to Qin Lang's performance.

The minutes ticked by.

One contestant after another walked out of the kitchen, but unfortunately there was no score of more than 90 points.

In the end, only the kitchen door where Qin Lang and Lake were left was still closed.

"Hey, it's all vegetarian, it's really..."

After submitting the score of the twenty-fourth contestant, a chubby man on the judges' bench couldn't help but sigh quietly.

The microphone never turned on, and his voice was only audible to the other judges sitting nearby.

This judge's name is Zhang Hua, and it can be seen from his figure that he must usually like to eat meat.

And that's exactly what happened.

Zhang Hua judges eat a lot of meat dishes every day on weekdays, and they don't like vegetarian dishes.

But where the duty lies, at the moment he has to eat.

There are 24 vegetarian dishes in a row, even if each portion is not too much, and two are quite amazing, but overall it is still not a friendly experience.

If it weren't for the fear of being captured by the camera, his depression would almost be written on his face.

"Who's to say it isn't."

The other judge, who was sitting not far from Zhang Hua's side, still had a warm expression, but the voice coming from the buzzing of his lips was a little depressed like Zhang Hua.

"Can you remove the vegetarian theme from the rating competition next time?"

"It's just a food fight, a 1v1 game, you only need to taste two dishes."

"It's really difficult to score such a theme."

And the judge's complaint was agreed by many judges.

"I won the 'sweetness' in the last rating competition, and I felt like I was in prison the whole time." One judge, who doesn't like sweets, couldn't help but complain.

"What are you, the year before last, there was a rating contest that drew the abstract theme of 'hot', and I feel like I'm being tortured!" Another judge couldn't help but have a little fear on his face.

This judge can't eat too spicy, and almost all the contestants in that rating competition understood hot as high spicy.

Well... There was only one female contestant who did not understand hot as spicy.

She wore a hot chef's outfit to the stage, drawing boos from the audience.

"It seems that the cooking competitions in other cities have already removed the theme of the scoring competition, and we in Dongxia City have to do it as soon as possible." Another judge chimed in.

"Ding—"

Another bell rang at this moment.

"Okay, there's a new player coming out, focus on your work." One of the most prestigious senior judges in the room spoke in a deep voice.

So the other judges stopped discussing this issue, and looked at the twenty-fifth Imperial Spirit Chef who was pushing the cart at this moment.

On the player's viewing seat, Zhu Ming, who paid attention to Tang Xie's fierce rival from time to time, suddenly found that Tang Xie, who had been holding his head and was almost asleep, sat up straight at this moment, looking at the field with burning battle intent in his eyes.

"It's our Qin Lang player who walks out of the kitchen at this moment!"

"Let's look forward to the dishes he brings!"
