The five judges began to taste the food without saying a word. Such a scene imperceptibly revealed a depressing atmosphere. The confident expression on Okada Jiro's face had disappeared, replaced by nervousness and uneasiness.
The emcee was also infected by the atmosphere. She swallowed nervously." Then, then, how does it taste?”
Xiwei Quan placed his chopsticks on the table and picked up a napkin to wipe the corner of his mouth." Overall, this dish should be considered good among the freshmen. This student, your family should be in the fabric industry, right?”
"Ah! "Yes, my family runs a Japanese ramen brand, so I've been exposed to ramen cuisine since I was young." Okada Jiro calmed down and heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that the judges were generally satisfied with his cooking.
" Well, in that case, I'll be frank," Nishio Izumi said with an indifferent look." I shouldn't be the judge of your cooking level, but since I'm here, I'll say a few words. Your performance in ramen is not bad. This is only because you're a first-year student of Togetsu Higher School. Perhaps your practice since you were young has made you more skilled in ramen. Your noodles are very chewy and chewy."”
Okada Jiro revealed a happy expression.
" But, other than that, I didn't find any good points in your cooking." Nishio Izumi crossed his hands in front of him." Whether it's the taste of the soup or the heat control and seasoning of the side dishes, they are far from excellent. It even reminded me of the taste of those fast food. To be honest, you don't have enough talent in ramen."”
"What?!" Okada Jiro's face was pale as he roared ferociously," Nonsense! What do you know!"
"Shut up, kid!" The other male judge's eyes darkened." Who do you think we are?!”
Okada Jiro panicked and looked up. The judges had contemptuous smiles on their faces.
" It's understandable that you want to step on others to get famous," one of the judges sneered." However, you must have the ability to put your ambition into action. What do you think Food War is? A child's play? This is a battle between chefs!" You submitted an application to the Food War Administration on a whim. Do you understand the weight of an inspector in the Food War Administration?”
" Well, since you're a new student, we won't comment too much. You can leave now, Okada Jiro." Ann waved her hand lightly.
" I see. So I really don't have any talent in ramen." Okada Jiro walked back to the cooking table with a face full of doubt. He was shrouded in a defeated aura.
" Well, it looks like the judges are quite strict. Aha, ha," the hostess wiped the cold sweat off her forehead." Right, let's see how Lin Ye's cooking is going."”
" I'm done too," Lin Ye smiled as if he didn't take the judges 'harsh words to heart." By the way, host, can I make a request?”
"Sure, how can I help you?”The emcee was curious.
" Please help me turn off the lights, thank you." Lin Ye calmly served the dishes to the judges.
"Oh... " Okay." Even though she didn't know what Lin Ye was going to do, she still dutifully contacted the staff to turn off the lights.
The lights above the venue suddenly went out, and the entire venue fell into darkness. The audience was noisy.
"What is that transfer student doing?”
"Why did you turn off the lights?"
"What is the transfer student doing?"
" Please take off the lid." Lin Ye smiled." This is my dish, Milky Way Noodles!”
"Oh?" Xi Weiquan couldn't help but reach for the lid on the plate.
"Whoosh!"
A clear light blossomed from the bowl. The noodles were glowing!
"This... What was this? Why is it glowing!"
The five judges widened their eyes. The dishes in front of them were sparkling with crystal light. The light was embellished on the black soup, and there was an indescribable beauty!
"I see. Is this the origin of the name Milky Way Plane?”Xi Weiquan exclaimed," It's indeed as magnificent as the Milky Way!”
An gave Lin Ye a thumbs-up." Young man, based on the appearance of your dish, even if it doesn't taste good, I have to give you a thumbs up.”
" Well, but ultimately, the food still depends on whether it's delicious or not." Another judge picked up a pair of chopsticks." Then, let's begin the judging.”
" Indeed." Nishio Izumi picked up the bowl of noodles with anticipation and put the noodles into his mouth.
"Oh!" Endless freshness rippled on the tip of his tongue!
"This is…" The five judges were all intoxicated." It's already top-notch! But why, why was there still a layer of umami that kept surging up!”
"This feeling is like an endless wave! Ah, I can't take it anymore!"
At this moment, the five judges felt as if they were in space, and the magnificent scene of the Milky Way was right in front of them!
"This is really…" This is incredible." When Xiwei Quan came back to his senses, the bowl in his hand was already empty.
He pushed up his glasses with great emotion." I can't believe that someone like you is actually a first-year freshman. Even if someone told me that you were one of the top ten who had graduated, I would believe it.”
"Indeed, this is no longer a battle of food in the usual sense. It's completely like... A massacre!" Ann also put down her bowl and chopsticks. She looked at Okada Jiro with pity in her eyes." You don't even know the level of your opponent and you rashly launched a Food War. This is really..."
Lin Ye smiled calmly. He could already see the completion level of this dish from the system's rating.
"Seven Star Cuisine: Milky Way Noodles, Rating: 95. A perfect culinary work had already begun to take shape!”
"Impossible!" Okada Jiro's face was ferocious." They're all freshmen. How is that possible?!”
He had been severely criticized by the five judges. This fellow freshman was not even a transfer student from the Togetsu Department. How could he have received such a high evaluation!
"Do you want to try it?" Lin Ye looked at him indifferently as he picked up a bowl of Milky Way Noodles." I just made some extra.”
Okada Jiro's hands trembled as he took the bowl of noodles. He spoke incoherently," This…" How is this possible!"
The noodles entered his mouth!
"Oh!" As if his heart had been pierced by countless umami spears, Okada Jiro suddenly fell to the ground. However, even so, he did not spill the bowl of noodles. Instead, he continued to eat with a ferocious expression!
"Wuwuwu... I…lost."
" Heh, it's time to vote, everyone." Nishio Izumi adjusted his glasses.
" The result is…" The emcee raised her microphone." 5 to 0! Lin Ye wins!"
"Poor hospitality!" Lin Ye imitated the main character's catchphrase.
"Naina ~ Senior, I want to eat too. Your food," a delicate voice came from behind.
Lin Ye turned his head and saw a few familiar people standing on the stage. The one who spoke just now was Alice. At this time, she was pulling her follower, Kuroki Ida, and looked at him with anticipation.
"Please let me have a taste of you, senior!”Takumi's eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
" Me too." Ye Shanliang nodded.
" Well, there's still some." Lin Ye scratched his head." If you want to eat, go get some. It's on my cooking counter."”
"Ah, that's great!" Alice clapped her hands in fear." Let's go, Liangjun. Let's go and taste Senior's cooking!"”
" Yes, yes." Ryo Kuroki was as weak as ever. He looked like an internet addict.
Lin Ye watched as they went to eat his food. He shook his head and muttered to himself," Soon, I've almost completely grasped it. This key named Ultimate…"
The audience in the venue was also discussing animatedly.
"This transfer student is amazing!”
"No wonder he dared to say that at the opening ceremony. It turns out that he really has the ability!”
"I really want to try it. It's a dish that will glow.”
