Bai Xiaoxiao did not even need to be judged by the judges. She won her first battle and became the first contestant to qualify today. She was full of pride and even looked provocatively at Feng Xi, who had not made a move yet.
Let's see how you can still be so smug today!
Sensing Bai Xiaoxiao's gaze, Feng Xi only smiled. His hand that had not moved all this while finally moved.
He did not use a measuring cylinder either. Even though he had clearly placed it in front of him just now, he still grabbed the bottle and poured the whiskey into the flagon. He did the same for Vermouth.
Although Manhattan was quite famous, the raw materials were very simple. There were only three kinds of wine.
Apart from the two things that Feng Xi had already added, he still needed two more shots of Angstella bitter wine. Everything was done. Obviously, Feng Xi's opponent did the same.
However, just as his opponent closed the lid, Feng Xi calmly added syrup and fruit juice. Everyone was dumbfounded.
Especially the judges on the stage. Everyone was dumbfounded.
What was this guy thinking? Wasn't this a waste of materials? Manhattan wanted a strong taste. This guy actually added syrup and fruit juice. How could he eat something that had conflicting flavors?
The happiest person was undoubtedly the fatty. This time, he didn't even need to do anything. Feng Xi had tortured himself to death.
Hearing the boos from the crowd, Miss Feng's expression was equally grave. She was also an experienced wine master. Although she didn't know much about bartending, it didn't mean that she didn't know the taste of Manhattan.
Fruit juice and syrup were the extremes of Manhattan.
Anyone who knew the industry knew that Feng Xi was crazy to do this!
Was he really crazy? Looking at Feng Xi's confident face, Miss Feng took a deep breath and tried her best to calm herself down. No matter what, she had to choose to believe in Feng Xi.
This man was definitely not simple.
He looked sloppy, but his bartending skills were so good that it was as if he was carrying it with him. She had never seen such a bartender before.
Despite the boos, the other players still automatically blocked the screen and began their own matches.
From the beginning to the end, Feng Xi had a smile on his face. As he flipped his hands, the bartender was like a flexible top that kept spinning in his hands.
In comparison, it was far inferior to Bai Xiaoxiao's performance, let alone his own performance.
Seeing Feng Xi like this, many people were disappointed. Many of them felt a little regretful. Feng Xi's performance today was really too bad.
From the moment he added the syrup and juice into the bartender, everything seemed to be destined. Bai Xiaoxiao and Miss Feng were the only ones who had been paying attention to Feng Xi.
As time passed, the other contestants also finished mixing the drinks one after another, while Feng Xi continued to spin around endlessly.
Many people were getting impatient. If it weren't for the security guards in front of them, they would have already started cursing.
Just as the judges were getting impatient, Feng Xi finally made his move.
With a flick of his hands, the cocktail jug shot out like a long arrow and began to spin in the air. The dazzling speed was too fast for everyone to react.
Everything seemed to have happened in the blink of an eye. Before anyone could even see what was going on, the bartender had already fallen from the sky and landed steadily on the table, spinning.
Feng Xi picked up two wine glasses and grabbed the mixing kettle. The lid was unscrewed, and the wine poured out in a swirling manner. It actually continuously fell from the sky above the two wine glasses, not spilling a single drop into the wine glasses.
The dazzling wine was like a bright dividing line, spiraling in the glass, giving off an intoxicating beauty.
A few minutes later, everyone's faces were filled with shock.
The cocktail jug was put back in its original position, and there were only two glasses of the same wine left on the table. They were dazzling like neon lights, but the other half of the spiral seemed to have a little more dullness.
At a glance, it seemed as if they had arrived at the distorted horizon. The place where the heavens and the earth intersected formed an alternative scenery.
The people who had been booing just a moment ago were all speechless at this moment. Their mouths were wide open, and their chins were almost falling off. Their faces were filled with shock.
After a long silence, thunderous applause filled the hall.
"Humph! You only know how to play tricks!" Bai Xiaoxiao stomped her feet angrily. Miss Feng, who was beside her, also heaved a long sigh of relief. Her heart was filled with joy.
As expected of Feng Xi. He had used a different method to create a shocking piece of work.
As Feng Xi stopped, all ten contestants had completed their works. Other than Bai Xiaoxiao's group, all eight of their works were placed on the judges 'seats.
The old man naturally placed Feng Xi's wine at the front. The fat judge beside him also took another cup.
The old man did not care about this scene. After all, Fatty was also a judge. It was not a big deal to let him have a taste. No one felt anything strange except for Feng Xi, whose eyes were fixed on Fatty.
He casually took out a few small wine glasses and poured the wine of each contestant into them separately, allowing each judge to take a glass.
This scene was very natural in the eyes of everyone. Some people even felt that this judge was very human. Only Feng Xi's gaze never left the wine glass.
"Oh!"
The first one to speak was the old man. After taking a bite, his expression changed drastically. It was spicy and stimulating. It was no different from the best Manhattan.
However, what followed closely was a mellow softness, like a sudden explosion of sex, gradually climbing up a bit of gentleness. The refreshing scent of the fruit juice and syrup washed away the spicy sensation after the stimulation like a spring breeze.
It was clearly a cup of Manhattan with strong stimulation, but it actually contained two completely different flavors. It didn't even make people feel uncomfortable at all.
On the contrary, after drinking it, his mouth was full of saliva, and his entire person felt refreshed.
"Bah!" Following closely behind the old man was the fat judge. He actually did not care about his image at all and spat out the wine in his glass, immediately attracting everyone's surprise.
It was obvious that the old man and the fat judge had drunk the same cup of wine. They were both brewed by Feng Xi.
Originally, the shocking selection of materials had already made people's hearts jump in their throats. Now that they saw the completely different performances of the two, their expressions changed drastically, and their faces were filled with nervousness.
Was it good or bad?
However, what happened next left everyone dumbstruck. Not only Fatty, but the other judges also had ugly expressions on their faces. They all spat out the wine in their mouths. Even if one or two of them swallowed it to maintain their image, their expressions were still ugly. It was not like they had drunk mixed wine, but more like they had drunk Chinese medicine.
In an instant, Miss Feng's heart fell to the bottom of the valley. Could it be that Feng Xi's wine was so awful?
She had always believed in Feng Xi's ability, but she did not expect it to turn out like this. If it was just one person, it would be fine. If several people were like this, the result was self-evident.
Sure enough, after tasting everyone's barbeque, the results were announced one by one.
They were the champions of the other hall, a skinny and tall guy, and Bai Xiaoxiao and two burly men. Feng Xi's group was the last to be decided.
"Feng Xi!"
"Liu Yu!"
However, the old man and the fatty gave two completely different answers.
The crowd immediately broke into an uproar. Everyone looked at each other. Even the old man on the judges 'seats widened his eyes and looked at the fatty beside him in disbelief. It was difficult to imagine that he would give such a result.
"Elder Su, you're a senior, and I respect you. I know you value this young man, but he's still trying to create something new when he's not strong enough. It's a little too much. Even though he's good with his hands, the taste of the wine is the most important.”
The fat judge looked at Elder Su's puzzled gaze and said with a smile.
Elder Su's expression suddenly darkened as he said sternly,""What's wrong with the texture? I just drank it myself. There's absolutely no problem!”
"Elder Su really loves talents, but we have to be realistic! If you ask everyone, they all drank a cup of wine. Could it be that there were two different tastes?”
The fat judge smiled and pointed at the other judges beside him.
Facing Elder Su's anxious gaze, the few of them looked at each other and finally nodded. The Manhattan just now was not only stimulating and unpleasant to drink, but it also had a bitter taste that was difficult to swallow. Even if it was important, it might not be so unpleasant to drink.
"Is that so? I clearly saw two glasses of wine!”
At this moment, Feng Xi stepped forward and said with a smile.
"What's wrong? Are you questioning the judges 'judgment? Or did you mix two cups of wine with different flavors? And they came out of the same bartender?”
The fat judge had a look of disdain on his face. Even a fool knew that this was completely impossible. As for questioning the judges, it was even more ridiculous. These people were all veterans in the bartending world. Otherwise, they would not have been invited here to be bartending.
Feng Xi's face flashed with a playful look as he smiled and said,""No, I'm only doubting you!”
"Impudent!"
"Who is the impudent one? To actually do such a despicable thing in public!”Feng Xi sneered and suddenly reached out his hand. The fatty did not have time to react and allowed Feng Xi to take out a few small wine glasses.
"Why don't you explain what's inside?”
