Lin Youshu was speechless: "Don't you think you're being too arrogant? Do you really think your status as the Chief of the Far Moon Academy is universally recognized?"
"..."
Erina Nakiri stared at him coldly.
The disdain and sarcasm in the other person's tone made her very uncomfortable. No one had ever dared to speak to her like that before.
Lin Youshu's gaze was indifferent: "You can eat it, but you have to agree to one condition!"
"condition?"
Erina Nakiri suddenly became alert.
Lin Youshu raised an eyebrow: "If you try it and can't find any problems, please sincerely apologize to me and all the senior judges, okay?"
Erina Nakiri took a deep breath, stared intently at him, and remained silent for a long while before saying, "Okay, no problem!"
She didn't believe that there were truly dishes in this world that even the most discerning palate couldn't find fault with!
"Then, please!—"
Lin Youshu chuckled and stretched his hand behind him.
The entire venue fell silent instantly.
All eyes were on Erina Nakiri.
At this moment, she, who had always been confident in facing everything since childhood, suddenly felt an unprecedented pressure, and even her palms began to heat up.
(I'm speechless. I don't know how my account got blocked. Editing didn't work, and there was no notification. I'll just have to wait for the review to unblock it tomorrow.)
Chapter 58 Erina Nakiri admits defeat!
Standing in front of the counter, I picked up the bowl of chicken and tofu pudding.
Upon closer inspection, Erina Nakiri realized that the dish was even more exquisite than she had imagined.
This kind of exquisite detail cannot be captured by even the highest resolution lens.
After all, the human eye has more than 400 million pixels.
"Am I really wrong?"
"Such exaggerated and delicate knife skills cannot be achieved through hard work alone, unless someone is willing to dedicate their entire life to making only this one dish. But then they wouldn't be a chef, they would be an artisan!"
A true chef should learn from the strengths of many schools of thought and then forge their own path in the art of cooking!
Do not know why.
Erina Nakiri felt increasingly uneasy.
"Oh, and the fragrance..."
The aroma of this dish was completely different from anything she had ever seen before. While others would eagerly bring out the fragrance, this one deliberately kept it hidden and subtle.
Only when you sniff carefully will you smell a refreshing fragrance, like some kind of magic elixir. Just a little bit of it will make you feel refreshed and live a few more years!
This feeling is far too exaggerated to describe!
But that's the truth.
She simply described what she felt and what she was thinking.
Erina Nakiri swallowed hard, her eyes losing their resolve; for the first time in her life, she felt so uncertain.
The thought of losing and having to apologize to Lin Youshu and the senior judges in front of everyone, including the viewers watching the live broadcast on their screens…
It's worse than killing her!
Apologizing to the judges would be fine, but Lin Youshu...
If it were just a commoner, the Nakiri family would truly be disgraced!
And the culprit behind all of this is Lin Youshu!
The thought of that despicable guy made her grit her teeth in hatred.
The proud young lady Erina certainly wouldn't think it was her fault.
……
"Any questions?"
Lin Youshu walked to the side, put one hand in his pocket, and asked.
"No, I'm just observing, you don't need to rush me."
Erina Nakiri turned her head and said coldly, "Exquisite appearance doesn't mean good taste. If it doesn't taste good, it doesn't deserve a 10!"
"Why say so much? Just try it and you'll know."
Lin Youshu didn't give her a friendly look.
What about the tongue of God?
In the face of true strength, all demons and monsters are nothing but trash!
Unless she dares to lie in front of everyone and say that this chicken tofu dish is not worthy of a perfect score.
But that would completely offend the judging panel.
Even if she is the God Tongue, the eldest daughter of the Nakiri family, the top student at Totsuki Culinary Academy, and holds a prominent position in the Japanese culinary world, she cannot bear such consequences.
Therefore, the ending was actually predetermined.
Lin Youshu walked over, just wanting to see her make a fool of herself.
……
Erina Nakiri was speechless upon hearing this.
With a soft hum, without further hesitation, he scooped up a small spoonful of chicken tofu, along with the clear broth, and put it into his mouth.
The moment the tip of your tongue touches the food...
She seemed to have been electrocuted, her eyes widening instantly!
"This……"
Its incredibly smooth texture far surpassed any bean or dairy dessert she had ever tasted, let alone meat.
By the time she realized what had happened, she had already swallowed the food.
"Oh no! I was so focused on tasting it that I forgot to comment on the specific flavors..."
Erina Nakiri, whose palms were already sweating, instinctively reached for a second spoonful.
"Huh? Why do you want to try a second bite? If it's really that bad, shouldn't you have just spat it out after the first bite?"
Lin Youshu mocked from the side.
He wouldn't let such a good opportunity to strike back pass him by.
Erina Nakiri's face flushed red instantly, she clenched her little fists, and was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Seeing this, the judges couldn't help but chuckle to themselves, delighted to see the two little ones targeting each other.
To be honest, the young lady from the Nakiri family is very talented, but she really needs to work on her temper. A chef who can't humble herself and learn from the strengths of others won't go far.
The contestants in the audience felt a chill run down their spines when they saw this.
It seems there's no hope.
Surprisingly, even the renowned Tongue of God was defeated by this dish.
"Is there really no one who can stop him from winning the championship?"
At this moment, countless contestants were disheartened.
A chef who doesn't strive for higher levels is not a good chef.
But when you realize that the gap between you and the champion is so large that it cannot be bridged, and you can only compete with others for second place, that feeling is really painful.
Not everyone has such a good mindset.
"Heh, now you know what real gourmet food is, right?"
Touma's beak curved into a disdainful arc, expressing genuine contempt for the so-called young lady of the Nakiri family on the screen.
"Hmph, Lin Jun's culinary skills are beyond doubt. No matter who it is, they can only be impressed!"
Setsuna, on the other hand, wore a proud expression, as if she were the victor. Although the final result was not yet in.
Many viewers who had hoped for a good show could only feel disappointed.
Of course, there was more amazement than anything else. Lin Youshu, who had already achieved a perfect score once before, was really going to achieve a perfect score again this time.
This person is incredibly strong!
……
"Do you have any opinion?"
Faced with Hayashi Yuuki's ridicule, Nakiri Erina couldn't hold back anymore and slammed her hand on the table in anger: "If I can't draw a conclusion after just one bite, what's wrong with me taking a second bite?"
This was the first time she had ever lost her composure in front of the public like this.
Lin Youshu waved his hand: "Alright, alright, do as you please. Anyway, I don't want to eat your saliva. Just eat the whole bowl."
His words made Erina Nakiri even angrier.
What do you mean you don't want to eat my saliva?
So many people want to eat it but can't!
Go to hell, you bastard!
Suppressing her anger, Erina Nakiri scooped up a second spoonful of chicken tofu and put it in her mouth.
This time, she dared not let her mind wander and began to savor the taste.
"The broth contains the essence of chicken, duck, pork, beef, pork bones, and ham. Apart from ginger and scallions, there aren't many other ingredients. The seasoning is simple, yet perfectly balanced. Despite the many ingredients blending together, it's not overly rich; instead, it has a refreshing feel. This soup alone deserves a near-perfect score..."
"But the most crucial part is the tofu made from chicken breast. If chicken breast isn't cooked well, it will become tough and dry. However, he managed to make it even more tender and smooth than real tofu, and it also has a freshness that tofu doesn't have. So much so that you can clearly feel this tender and smooth texture while tasting it, bringing extreme pleasure to your mouth and tongue, leaving you with an unforgettable aftertaste. It's so delicious that you don't have time to think about anything else."
"This is completely different from any dish I've ever eaten before! It's a world of taste I've never experienced before! It's like a wondrous delicacy from another world, perhaps imbued with some unknown magic!"
"Damn it! I am clearly the sole ruler of this culinary paradise, so why are there dishes that even the God Tongue cannot detect as flawed?!"
