The story begins in Food Wars, when Alice took him home.

Let me think. Although it took a long time, it was so delicious that it met my minimum standard of 60 points.

After thinking for a moment with his eyes closed, Bai Yuan finally gave Mito Ikumi a score of 60.

Although the cooking techniques are still somewhat raw, the taste of the dishes is already considered to be of medium to high quality among second-class dishes.

This dish is good enough to pass the test.

"60 points, great!"

Upon hearing Bai Yuan's words, Mito Ikumi excitedly raised her hand and punched the air several times.

After cooking for so long, she also saw the results of the others. Apart from Erina Nakiri and the other two, the highest score was still far from passing.

In other words, Bai Yuan's rating is extremely valuable!

Despite scoring only 60 points, he still ranked fourth among the fifty-odd students, even with Erina and Alice both present during the assessment.

And this is just the beginning…

Although it was only half a day of cooking, she could clearly feel her skill level improving. If she stayed in this state for a month, it's hard to imagine how much progress she could make!

"Alright, the cooking review is over. Now sit down in that chair over there and lift your leg up. I'll take care of your wound a little."

Seeing Alice Nakiri running towards him with a first-aid kit in her hand, Bai Yuan sat back down in his chair and began to fulfill his duties as a teacher.

If a student gets injured during a cooking assessment, he naturally has to treat their wounds.

Since I didn't have any suitable tools on hand, I'll start by evaluating the dishes.

Now that Alice Nakiri has returned with her tools, he naturally has to disinfect and treat Ikumi Mito's wounds.

If a wound along the riverbank becomes infected and is not properly treated, it will definitely have a significant impact.

"No need, I can handle it myself when I get back, no need to bother."

Upon hearing Bai Yuan's words, Mito Ikumi blushed, and her previously tired demeanor instantly became energetic.

Let... let Bai Yuan treat her wounds.

Although it was just an extremely ordinary little thing, because of my admiration for Bai Yuan, I felt inexplicably ashamed.

Especially considering that Bai Yuan is a man…

The shame rushed to her head, making her hesitate to lift her foot.

"Don't worry about anything, and don't feel pressured. For me, it's just fulfilling my duty. All you have to do is let me treat your wound."

Seemingly sensing Mito Ikumi's doubts, Hakugen spoke softly.

"Okay...okay."

Hearing Bai Yuan's words and seeing his pure and unadulterated gaze, Mito Ikumi finally gave in and slowly lifted her foot from the chair.

"It's white, which is a bit unexpected."

The moment he lifted his foot, Bai Yuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, then reached out and grasped Mito Yumi's wheat-colored foot.

Because of running, her big toe and the front of her foot were cut by a sharp stone, and blood was seeping out.

The sudden grasp, though gentle, made Mito Ikumi grit her teeth and clutch her clothes tightly.

"Thanks a lot."

Without lingering too long, Bai Yuan took the tweezers, alcohol, and disinfectant from Alice Nakiri beside him and quickly began to treat the situation.

"hiss…"

As saline solution was poured onto the wound, a distorted expression immediately appeared on Mito Ikumi's face.

But she didn't cry out; she just looked at Bai Yuan, her hands gripping her clothes tightly, as if that could alleviate her pain.

Bai Yuan knew that a short pain was better than a long one, so he cleaned himself with saline solution.

Apply alcohol to a cotton ball, use tweezers to remove any remaining small stones from the soles of the feet, apply disinfectant, and finally apply an ointment to prevent infection before wrapping the feet in gauze.

"Your other foot is fine, so you can wear slippers from now on."

After treating this foot, Bai Yuan carefully examined the other foot. Apart from some mud and sand, there were no other injuries.

"Okay, thank you, Teacher Bai Yuan."

Mito Ikumi thanked him, his face flushed. His heart was pounding so hard that it was even faster than when he had just been praised for his cooking.

Thus, the wound was treated simply.

Chapter 108 Losers, welcome to hell!

"0 points. The soup is a bit bitter, probably because the gall bladder wasn't completely removed when the fish was being prepared. This shows a lack of understanding of the fish's structure, and the knife skills are also very poor!"

The solution is not difficult: scrub the areas affected by bile with baking soda, then wash with vinegar to neutralize the bitterness.

You can eat the rest yourself, not a single drop. Savor the bitterness, and remember this lesson!

Smelling the aroma in the air, Bai Yuan didn't even pick up his spoon before speaking to Anzu Yasuda, who was not far away.

This guy is really bad; he's terrible in every way! I don't know why Totsuki Academy has a student like this.

"0 points... It's a bit sad, but it's not entirely unexpected."

Upon hearing Bai Yuan's final assessment, Anzu Yasuda murmured to herself.

Actually, she felt something was wrong when she was handling the fish, but her lack of cooking experience prevented her from realizing what the problem was.

"Although I don't know what happened to you in the past, now that you're here, you'd better spend the rest of your time studying! Show the same enthusiasm you had for asking me questions today!"

Looking at the girl in front of him, Bai Yuan's voice was not loud, but every word was piercing, which greatly shocked Yasuda An.

"This is just a preliminary assessment to test your current abilities. Don't worry too much about the rankings, because things will definitely change later."

Next, teachers will instruct and assess your fundamentals in all aspects. I hope you will diligently absorb knowledge, continuously hone your skills, and surpass those at the top!

Looking at the students who had gathered around him in a small circle, Bai Yuan continued.

The overall average score for this assessment was 30 points, even after Alice Nakiri raised the average score by 2 points.

Only ten people reached the level of a third-class chef or above, accounting for about 20 percent of the total number of people.

"Preliminary assessment?"

"Such a rigorous assessment was just a preliminary test...?"

"What does 'teaching and assessing' mean? Does it mean we'll adopt a classroom teaching model, teach you a dish, and then let you replicate it?"

Some people have voiced their guesses. Bai Yuan's words are indeed thought-provoking. If professors take assessments in parallel, it would be an advantage for many of them!

Because Totsuki has always implemented this kind of teaching.

"If that's the case, it's much easier. At least it's much better than this terrible preliminary assessment. I worked so hard all day and only got 32 points."

Those nearby couldn't help but complain, because the ingredients were difficult to obtain and the cooking conditions were demanding.

Even though he tried his best to cook, he still couldn't satisfy Bai Yuan, and he also felt that it wasn't his best performance.

"You're lucky. I only got 23 points, which isn't even the average."

Another person also made a self-deprecating remark, saying that as one of the top students in the school, he hadn't even reached the average score, which was utterly ridiculous!

"I'm the replica prince, so if it's this type of assessment, I'm basically guaranteed a spot. I usually get either a B or an A in class."

"So you only got 29 points this time, which is only slightly better than me."

"I already said this is a replica! Besides, for this type of exam, being able to cook the dish is already quite good, okay!"

This is only the first day, and as Teacher Bai Yuan said, the results from the first day don't prove anything!

Such complaints continued, and the difficulty of the first assessment truly exceeded their expectations.

Under such circumstances, it is truly remarkable that Alice Nakiri and her friends were able to stand out and achieve high scores thanks to their culinary skills!

"Alright, get on the bus, we'll head to our accommodation next."

As the sun set, Bai Yuan's voice rang out after all the candidates had completed their assessments. He was then the first to board the bus, where he was operating his phone.

"Great!"

"I can finally rest."

"Ugh, I'm exhausted after a long day. I really need to get some rest tonight."

Upon hearing Bai Yuan's words, cheers erupted from the crowd, and some even hugged each other, their faces filled with relief at surviving a disaster.

"It's too early to be happy now."

"This is only the first day of the assessment. Assessments like this will continue for a full 30 days!"

Seeing their happy expressions, some of the more rational people spoke up.

This assessment is not going to end so easily.

"Oh yeah, damn it! I want to go home..."

"Then you should go back. Dropping out of school will make things easier."

"Get lost!"

"At least let me sleep soundly in tonight's sweet dreams!"

The scene erupted in groans once again, but this time everyone's eyes were filled with life, as if they possessed boundless fighting spirit.

It's hard to say who will survive a 30-day endurance race.

Twenty-nine days left.

As long as you persevere, you will definitely undergo a transformation in the end!

The people present thought this to themselves, and then boarded the bus in an orderly manner and sat in their original seats.

Before long, everyone boarded the bus, and a feeling of being pushed back came over them. The vehicle slowly started moving forward.

Bai Yuan leaned against the window, looking at the scenery reflected outside.

after an hour.

The bus slowly came to a stop in front of a luxurious hotel.

At this moment, more than a dozen buses were parked in front of the hotel, and students were getting off the buses one after another.

"Wow! Is this where we'll be staying from now on?"
