In the evening, it was dinner time at Jixingliao. Everyone was eating quietly in the restaurant. The atmosphere was a bit silent. Compared with the joyous songs and laughter in the past, it was now silent. Everyone looked worried and mechanical.
Put the food into your mouth as usual, it tastes like chewing wax.
Everyone recalled every bit of their time in Jiuxing Lao and the happy past here. When Xia Tian heard that Tadokoro had been staying in the warehouse for three months before moving into Jixing Lao, they couldn't help but feel speechless. I really don't know.
How on earth did this silly girl survive?
Gradually, the more they thought of the experience of living together in Jixingliao, the lower everyone's mood became. They had mixed emotions for a while and felt extremely bitter. Yoshino Yuki, who had always been lively, couldn't help but sob at this time.
"I really don't want to leave here, I don't want Jixingliao to disappear, and I don't want to leave everyone..."
Seeing Yoshino Yuki crying and crying, everyone was also feeling melancholy. Ryoko Sakaki quickly pulled Yoshino Yuki into her arms and comforted her in a low voice.
Just when the whole room was filled with an atmosphere of loss and sadness, a crisp sound of "pop" instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone looked around and saw that Xia Tian had finished their dinner, put down his chopsticks, and was gently wiping the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief. Looking at Xia Tian's slow and leisurely look, as if everything had nothing to do with him, everyone couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Looking at the empty plates in front of Xia Tian, Nakiri Erina also frowned and said:
"Xia Tian, aren't you sad at all? After all, you are about to..."
But before Nakiri Erina finished speaking, she was interrupted by Xia Tian. Xia Tian raised her brows slightly and said:
"Humph, is there any use in being sad? Others won't let you go just because they see you pitiful. If you really want to keep Jixingliao, you should do your best instead of just sighing here. And as long as Shoji defeats Eizan, it won't be
Is it okay?”
Nakiri Erina paused in her words. Looking at Xia Tian's cold face, she felt a little aggrieved for some reason. She pursed her mouth lightly and stopped talking.
Zenji Marui on the side also said helplessly:
"Xia Tian, of course we know this, but even the censors are on Ruishan's side, so we have no chance at all."
"That's not necessarily true!"
Xia Tian looked around at everyone and said in a serious tone:
"You think it's because the examiners don't give you a chance, but have you ever thought about it. Whether it's in Yuanyue or outside, there is never absolute fairness. In everything, cooking skills come first, and outstanding students occupy better resources.
So do you think this is fair to those students with mediocre qualifications?"
"But……"
Zenji Marui wanted to defend himself, but he didn't know what to say. The others also frowned.
Looking at the people with different expressions, Xia Tian continued:
"Perhaps Eizan's behavior this time is indeed unacceptable, but think about what would happen if Shokugeki was replaced by Isshiki-senpai this time. I believe those censors will never give up.
Let’s review the cuisine of Isshiki-senpai, because his status as one of the top ten will naturally make those gourmets understand the value of Isshiki Hui’s cuisine. Even if they have their own aspirations, they will never give up tasting Isshiki Hui’s cuisine. You know why.
?"
"Because of the reputation of the Ten Heroes?"
Jun Imusaki said softly.
"Yes, but not entirely right!"
Hearing Xia Tian's strange answer, everyone was puzzled. Even Nakiri Erina looked at Xia Tian curiously. Seeing this, Xia Tian explained with a smile:
"First of all, you have to understand what it means to be one of the "Top Ten". Do you know that?"
Yoshino Yuki's eyes lit up and she quickly said:
"It's "cooking", it's "cooking", right!"
"That's right!"
Xia Tian smiled and nodded, giving Yoshino Yuki an encouraging look, which immediately made this girl feel joyful in her heart. She couldn't help but look at everyone with pride, as if she was awesome.
The others just smiled and didn't take it seriously. In fact, who didn't know the answer? But to prevent this girl Yoshino Yuki from becoming angry, everyone was flattering happily, especially the "bad duo"
With Zenji Marui and several other boys.
Xia Tian also continued to say at this time:
"In Yuanyue, no matter what the members of the "Top Ten" are like or what their temperament is, one thing will not change, that is, their cooking skills are undoubtedly superior to those of the entire Yuanyue. This pair of students
It’s common sense, even to those censors.”
Nakiri Erina also nodded slowly. The Totsuki Ten Heroes represent the iconic products of Totsuki Academy in the entire neon cuisine world. They also have the strongest top ten cuisines among the top neon cuisine schools in the catering industry.
A person's title.
"So the products produced by the "Top Ten" must be high-quality. At the same time, their dishes are recognized by the inspectors as good cuisine and have absolute tasting value. At the same time, it is also the value that makes the Ten Tops among the "Shiji"
"Power", using "power" to suppress people openly, but those of you who are not well-known have no taste value at all to them, do you understand?"
"Position??"
Seeing everyone's thoughtful expressions and muttering to themselves, Xia Tian also paused and waited for everyone's thinking.
After a while, Yoshino Yuki couldn't help but ask:
"Xia Tian, if you say so, then we still have no chance!"
Seeing everyone's confused and unaware look, Xia Tian said with a smile:
"No, you don't have the "power" of Ruishan, but you can "grow up the power"!"
“Building strength??”
"Do you still remember the cooking showdown between me and Teruki Kuaga? I'm afraid none of you thought I would win at that time!"
Everyone smiled sheepishly. Indeed, when Xia Tian first entered Toyue, no one really felt hope. After all, Xia Tian's opponent was the eighth member of the "Toyue Ten Elites", Kyuga Teruki, but Xia Tian was just an average person.
Just an ordinary Chinese student.
"Then do you still remember my cooking at that time?"
"I remember, I remember!"
Yoshino Yuki quickly raised her hand and said:
"The two of you were engaged in a Mapo Tofu duel. At that time, you made two Mapo Tofu dishes, one of which was for your opponent, and the other was for the commander-in-chief and the others..."
Speaking of this, Yoshino Yuki couldn't help but recall the scene at that time. The overwhelming spicy aroma covered the entire restaurant. The spicy aroma and hot temperature seemed to rush to the tip of her tongue, making her swallow involuntarily.
saliva.
"Gudu~"
Yoshino Yuki's eyes widened suddenly, and her pretty face turned red. Everyone could clearly hear the voice in her mouth, but Xia Tian asked with a smile:
"Yuji, do you still remember what your first feeling was at that time?"
Yoshino Yuki closed her eyes and recalled it. The aroma that permeated the entire venue, the first thing she felt was that her stomach kept squirming, her saliva secreted uncontrollably, and the appetite and greed hidden in her body were instantly triggered.
, Yoshino Yuki suddenly opened her eyes and exclaimed:
"Eat, yes eat!"
Yoshino Yuki still remembers that her appetite erupted like a volcano at that time, and she couldn't stop at all. All she could think about was wanting to eat summer dishes...
Xia Tian nodded at this time and replied:
“This is what I’m telling you about cultivating “power” in cooking!!”
