Shokugeki: My Online Girlfriend Kobayashi Ryodan

"The next person to appear is someone that everyone is familiar with. He is the eighth of the Ten Great Masters who is famous for his Chinese cuisine - Senior Teruki Kuga!"

Kawashima Rei's loud and passionate voice instantly aroused cheers from the surroundings.

Especially the group of particularly conspicuous bald heads in the middle area, the cheers were simply deafening.

Teruki Kuga, who was slightly petite, walked into the venue with his head held high in this intense atmosphere.

"Both parties are already in place at the cooking table, so... next, this high-stakes, much-anticipated food battle is about to begin!"

"Senior Kuga is betting on the eighth seat with the Chinese Cuisine Research Society!"

"Jie Jun’s bet is an 18-story building in Totsuki and 1 billion yen!"

"The conditions offered by the two of them are simply the biggest gamble since the founding of Totsuki Academy.……"

"……"

Before the food battle officially started, there was another uproar around the venue.

Everyone was shocked by the stakes of both sides.

"Is this true? Is this transfer student so rich?"

"It’s incredible, with such a big bet, Senior Kuga made a fortune this time!"

"Yes, the theme of this food battle is the mapo tofu that Kuga-senpai is best at."

"……"

No one was optimistic about Jie Jun.

Even though he was from Xia country and was familiar with Chinese cuisine, when it came to mapo tofu, Kuga Teruki's level had already been recognized by everyone.

…………

Standing opposite each other on the cooking table,

Xie Jun and Kuga Teruki looked at each other, both with confident expressions on their faces.

The latter's eyes revealed a hint of arrogance.

Talking about Mapo Tofu!

He has absolute confidence.

Kuga Teruki's movements are skillful, the knife in his hand is flowing, and the ginger, garlic sprouts and other auxiliary ingredients are processed in an instant.

Xie Jun does not seem to be in a hurry, and quietly watches the other party's performance.

It must be said that Kuga Teruki's basic skills are really good.

Just looking at the dish of Mapo Tofu, it is obvious that it has been practiced for thousands of times to be so skilled.

"What's going on? Why hasn't Jie Jun taken action yet?"

"Could it be that he knew he was no match for Senior Kuga and so was hesitant to take action?"

"Look, Senior Jiu has already started stir-frying! Oh my god, he is doing it so fast, isn’t he afraid that the tofu in the pot will fall apart?"

"This strong spicy aroma makes my mouth water~~~"

"I heard that Senior Kuga has improved the recipe thousands of times and has made this [Mapo Tofu] perfect!"

"Just smelling this aroma, I can eat three bowls of rice……"

"……"

The venue was bustling with people, all attracted by the aroma that filled the air.

Even Erina, who was sitting at the review table, couldn't help but straighten her body slightly.

With a hint of teasing on her face, she didn't think Jie Jun could beat Kuga Teruki on this dish.

Below the stage, Tadokoro Megumi watched the duel on the stage nervously.

She didn't understand why the confident Jie Jun didn't make a move.

Could it be that the other party was so arrogant that he thought there was enough time to finish.

Tadokoro Megumi subconsciously glanced at the time on the screen.

There were less than three minutes left.

She couldn't help but start to get anxious secretly.

Suddenly!

Jie Jun moved.

The kitchen knife in his hand seemed to be full of spirituality, and he processed the auxiliary ingredients in a smooth manner.

The beef and ginger were chopped into fine pieces in a very short time.

Turn on the fire and sauté the peppercorns in the hot pan.

After taking them out, heat the oil.……

‘Squeak~~~’

When the oil temperature rises and the spices are put into the pot, a strong spicy aroma fills the entire venue.……

‘coo coo~~~’

Everyone seemed to hear the sound of boiling water in the pot.

At this time, Xie Jun smiled and picked up a piece of white tofu with one hand.

Then he threw it, and everyone stared at the tofu flying in the air.

What did Xie Jun want to do?

Before they could react, several knife lights flashed.

Countless pieces of tofu of uniform size fell into the boiling pot.

‘boom~~~’

The scene was filled with noise.

Xie Jun's high-profile performance shocked them again.

How confident must he be? He dared to show off his knife skills in such a crucial competition.

Wasn't he afraid that the tofu cut in this way would be different in size?

You know, if you can't ensure that each piece of tofu is evenly cut, the taste will definitely be different.

"Arrogant!"

On the review stage, Erina looked unhappy, thinking that Jie Jun had no respect for the sacred food battle.

How could such a person who was a circus performer make the ultimate dish?

Kuga Teruki seemed unaffected by this scene.

His mapo tofu was about to come out of the pot.

With a proud look on his face, he smiled and glanced at Jie Jun, but immediately frowned.

Because the other party actually covered the pot.

Kuga Teruki couldn't help but doubt whether the other party could make mapo tofu.

Such an operation would only make the dish have a burnt smell.

The stewing under high heat would not evaporate the spicy and other aromas to a certain extent, which would completely destroy the taste of the dish.

"Ha ha~~~"

"The transfer student completely ruined this dish. He was just showing off his knife skills!"

"It’s confirmed, this Xia guy is just all show and no substance!"

"Just wait and hand over your bet!"

"……"

There was a commotion in the stands.

Many people were disgusted with Jie Jun, who had been parading around town with Kobayashi Ryodan.

Now they were hoping that he would make a fool of himself.

Many people began to gloat over his misfortune.

The people from Polaris Dormitory were all in the stands, but they did not join in the commotion.

Isshiki Hui and the others were confused, not being able to understand the other party's intentions at all.

After hearing what Tadokoro Megumi and Sakaki Ryoko had said about Jie Jun, they did not think that he was fooling around.

At this moment!

Jie Jun, who was on the cooking table, suddenly lifted the lid of the pot.

"What's going on? Where is the light coming from?"

"Can anyone tell me...why does Mapo Tofu glow?"

"Is the new classmate here to make fun of me? Why is he putting fluorescent powder in a dish?"

"It can't be fluorescent powder! That stuff doesn't have such a strong effect.……"

"Then tell me, why does his mapo tofu glow?"

"……"
