" Now, I'll announce that the winner is-" On the grand judging stage, the host raised the statistics card in his hand." From Head Chef Lin Ye, Boiled Cabbage!”
Below the stage, Lin Ye, who was wearing a white chef's uniform, calmly raised his right hand to announce his victory.
That's right, he had tasted such victories too many times, so many that he was numb. Even if this was the grandest Heavenly Chef's Banquet in the world cuisine competition, it could no longer bring him the passion to win.
"Head Chef Lin, congratulations!"
"Head Chef Lin, when are you going to open a branch in New York? I love your food so much!”
"That's right, that's right. Opening a few restaurants isn't enough to show off your culinary skills!”
" Ha!" Lin Ye let out a breath and forced a smile to deal with the guests. The dozens of judges of the Heavenly Chef Banquet were all the world's top food gourmets. Some of them were politicians, some were professors, and some were even members of the royal family of some countries. Every one of them came from a powerful background.
" Living in the same era as such a life…"
"Ah, this is the tragedy of our generation of chefs.”
"Completely, it makes people unable to muster up the desire to chase after him.”
The top chefs of other worlds who were competing on the same stage only had a look of regret on their faces. They were not disappointed that they had been defeated. This was normal. After all, competing with such a monster on the same stage made people lose their desire to win.
Lin Ye was 30 years old now. He started learning how to cook at the age of six and displayed unparalleled talent in cooking. Everything he did seemed to be born for cooking. He could always find the most harmonious balance point for seasoning, solve the most perfect formula for matching spices, and develop the best cooking method for ingredients.
At the age of 16, he had learned all the major cuisines in China. In the next two years, he had fused all the cuisines into one, just like a master. At the age of 18, he went abroad to travel around the world. Every time he went to a place, he could learn the local cuisine at an extremely fast speed and surpass his master.
Now that he was 30 years old, he was already known as the God of Cooking. If every chef walked on the path that their predecessors opened up, then there was no one in front of Lin Ye. He was the one who opened up the path!
It was such a God of Cooking who was thinking,'Really…' It's very boring, cooking..."
In the middle of the night, Lin Yeban, who was standing on the rooftop of the restaurant, closed his eyes and let the night breeze blow." It's already…" Can't you find any fun at all? Sigh, if I really can't do it, I'd better change careers. I might not be suitable to be a chef anymore.”
"Ding…Food War System is being activated!"
"What is this?" The mechanical voice in his head almost gave Lin Ye a heart attack.
"Beep--The system has been activated, binding the host... Binding successful!"
"Huh?" Lin Ye rubbed his stiff face." I read novels and anime occasionally, and this kind of setting is quite common, but I didn't expect this to really happen!”
"Host interface activated:

[Evaluation: Extremely experienced, a head chef whose skills have reached the peak. Unfortunately, he was born in a world where the food system has declined. Even if all his skills have reached the special standard, he can only stop at nine stars.]”
" Haha," Lin Ye smiled helplessly when he saw the last comment." I'm really sorry to be born in this world.”
"Then, host, are you willing to go to another world where food is supreme to continue exploring a higher realm of food?”
"Yes, no. Please choose."
"What do you mean? Are you bringing me to transmigrate?" Lin Ye narrowed his eyes." Before you choose, you should at least tell me what kind of world you're going to, right?”
" As the words say, food is supreme in this world. Its status is equivalent to the combination of politicians and celebrities in this world. As long as your culinary skills are good enough, you can get everything you want. Moreover, the culinary system of this world is developed. After the host goes to this world, there is a huge room for improvement.”
Lin Ye's eyes widened when he heard that there was a lot of room for improvement." So you're saying that my culinary skills are far from the best in that world? Hahaha, how interesting. Then I'll choose, yes!”
"Ding! Command received, preparing to cross over-"
Lin Ye felt as if his head had been hit by something, and he instantly fainted. All that was left on the hotel's rooftop was a lifeless body lying on the ground as if it had lost its soul.
"Mmmm-"
On the tattered tatami, Lin Ye slowly opened his eyes." I…" Did he transmigrate successfully? Or could it be…Are you dreaming?"
He raised his hands and looked at them. They looked very similar to his original hands, but they felt much younger. There were fewer knife marks and burn scars on his hands. He propped his hands on the tatami and stood up." System, system, come out and answer me!"”
"Ding! The transmigration has been successful. This transmigration is a transmigration of the soul. The memory transfer will now begin. Please remain calm.”
A familiar mechanical voice sounded in his mind. Before Lin Ye could ask anything else, a huge amount of memories flooded into his mind. Lin Ye felt a splitting headache as he hugged his temples and lay on the ground.
It wasn't until an hour had passed that Lin Ye slowly let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that the person he transmigrated to was also called Lin Ye. Rather than calling this a foreign world, it was more like a parallel world. Lin Ye was also an orphan in this world. He was 16 years old and looked exactly like him when he was young, but their fates were completely different.
Even though Lin Ye started learning how to cook in this world at the age of six, he wasn't as talented as him. He had only been a three-star chef for 10 years, and even though three-star wasn't low, the competition in this world was too fierce, so the original owner wanted to come to Japan to develop herself. He also successfully obtained the qualification to take the transfer examination at the Toketsu Academy, a Japanese culinary school. The examination would be held in a week, so the original owner began to practice cooking day and night. Finally…
"Sigh, the same name, the same identity, but is there such a big difference in fate?”Lin Ye sighed." It's okay. Don't worry. I'll walk this path for you.”
In his memory, he could feel the incomparable passion of the original owner for the road of cooking. Such passion... He once had one, but it gradually faded away after he could not see the way forward.
"Speaking of which…Togetsu, is it the Togetsu I was thinking of…" Lin Ye's mouth twitched. In his previous life, he would occasionally watch anime, such as The Spirit of the Halberd and China. Although he had watched it for a long time and his memory was a little blurry, he was still familiar with the name Togetsu. Wasn't this the school where the main characters in The Spirit of the Halberd were at?
"Well, since I'm already here, let me see what the future path that I couldn't see in my previous life is like!”Lin Ye's eyes seemed to be burning with fire as he became interested in cooking.
"Uh, but the most important thing now is to fill my stomach…" Lin Ye helplessly scratched his head. The Host had been studying for a day and a night, and now she had collapsed in her room. She hadn't eaten for a day and a night, and her stomach was already filled with a strong desire to eat.
