Food Wars: Starting with Equipping the Greedy Wolf Pot

"What is this?" Kobayashi Ryudou blinked her big eyes.

"Check-in process!"

"Everyone who wants to stay at the Polaris Dormitory needs to cook a dish, and only after the dish is approved by Granny Wenxu can they move into the Polaris Dormitory."

Ee eh eh!

After hearing Xiang Ji explain the check-in process, Kobayashi Ryudai's eyes lit up instantly. So there was such a way to get something for free?

When she becomes a member of the Ten Elites of Totsuki, she will find a piece of land in Totsuki to build a dormitory building, and she will be the manager. All Totsuki students will be required to live in her dormitory.

She will only allow people who can cook a meal that satisfies her and fill her up to live in the dormitory she has built; otherwise, they will all live outside.

Furthermore, the students take turns providing meals for the dormitory.

Is it a cooking test?

Upon hearing the details of the check-in process, Tsukasa Eishi immediately relaxed, as cooking skills were the least of his worries.

……

"real or fake?"

"Are Tsukasa-senpai and Kobayashi-senpai also moving into our Polaris Dormitory?" Yoshino Yuuki and the others were shocked by Kobayashi Ryudou's presence.

Tsukasa Eishi and Kobayashi Ryudou were the top student and second-ranked student in the 90th class of Totsuki High School.

In other words...

Both Tsukasa Eishi and Kobayashi Ryudou are potential candidates for the Totsuki Ten Masters.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances.

After the third-year seniors like Kakuzaki Taki from the 88th class graduate from Totsuki next year, Tsukasa Eishi and his companion will become Totsuki's Elite Ten.

If we add Xiang Ji to that, wouldn't that mean that their Polaris Dormitory will have three members of the Far Moon Ten Heroes after next year?

Upon realizing this, Yoshino Yuuki became so excited that she trembled all over.

……

"Grandma Wenxu".

"Since Si and I just agreed to have an informal food battle, then Grandma Wenxu, please be our judge!"

"Let's take this as a check-up for Si and the others," Xiang Ji continued.

"Tsk tsk tsk".

"Kid, I remember you had a food battle today, right?"

"You just finished one food battle, and now you're already having another one. You're just like that kid, Saibo."

"But never mind."

"I have no problem with you two kids being judges for a time, as long as his cooking satisfies my taste buds."

"Gentiana".

"Would you like to join us now?" After Oomido Fumio agreed to be a judge, Xiang Ji looked at Kobayashi Ryudou.

As mentioned earlier, not only Tsukasa Eishi, but Xiang Ji was also very curious about Kobayashi Ryudou's current level.

Today is a rare opportunity, so let's take a look at Kobayashi Rintou's culinary skills.

But at this time...

Kobayashi Ryudou declined Xiang Ji's invitation without hesitation. "Xiang Ji, Si Ke has already agreed to let me be the judge for your food battle."

"If you're checking in..."

"I'll conduct the evaluation separately later." Why would Ryudou Kobayashi give up being a judge just to save time?

They don't even let a single meal go to waste.

This is the culinary philosophy that Rindou Kobayashi has always upheld!

"Yes."

"Xiang Ji-kun, I promised Rindou to be a judge," Tsukasa Eishi said, his voice trembling under Rindou Kobayashi's fierce gaze.

This works too!

Since Kobayashi Ryudou doesn't want to participate, then he doesn't have to participate!

Anyway, once Kobayashi Ryudou moves into the Polaris Dormitory, there will be plenty of opportunities to learn about the competition. For now, let's think about the judges.

The number of judges for the Food Wars can only be odd, because an even number would easily result in a tie.

While an odd number of judges doesn't necessarily mean a tie is impossible, it's ultimately just an isolated case.

There are already two judges, Granny Wenxu and Ryudai Kobayashi, which means that Isshiki Satoshi and the others need to find at least one more person to be a judge.

Not only Xiang Ji, but also Yoshino Yuuki, Sakaki Ryoko and the others immediately realized this rare opportunity after Si Yingshi finished speaking!

The judges of Food Wars!

This means you have the opportunity to enjoy Xiang Ji's dishes all to yourself, as well as the dishes of Tsukasa Eishi, the 90th class champion of Totsuki Academy.

Double the happiness!

I absolutely cannot miss this great opportunity!

In an instant.

Yoshino Yuuki and Sakaki Ryoko's eyes collided violently, sparks flying everywhere!

Unfortunately, Yoshino Yuuki and Sakaki Ryoko reacted a step too late.

Before they could speak, Isshiki Satoshi, Kurokiba Ryo, and Nakiri Alice all shouted out at the same time.

Chapter 47: Ryo Kurokiba in Berserker Mode

"I I I..."

"Senior, I want to be a judge for your food battle!" Alice Nakiri said, hopping and skipping around while waving her hands vigorously.

"Senior Xiang Ji, Senior Si, could you please add me to your food battle?" Isshiki Satoshi stared sharply at Xiang Ji and Si, his eyes now fully open.

"Senior, may I participate in this food battle?" Kurokiba Ryo raised his hand, but his voice sounded completely listless, lacking the intense fighting spirit that Isshiki Satoshi possessed.

Ee eh eh?

What exactly was the meaning behind Isshiki Satoshi and Kurokiba Ryo's answers just now?

Upon hearing Isshiki Satoshi's words, Yoshino Yuuki and the others were somewhat stunned. Did Isshiki Satoshi and his companion also want to participate in this food battle?

"Si-kun, how about Alice be our last judge for this food battle?" Xiang Ji turned his gaze to Si Yingshi beside him.

"no problem."

"It doesn't matter who the judges for the food battle are," Tsukasa Eishi said without even looking at Alice Nakiri.

It was just an informal food battle anyway, so it didn't matter to Tsukasa Eishi who the judges were.

Tsukasa Eishi has absolute confidence in his culinary skills.

"As for Isshiki-kun?"

"Didn't we already have a food battle?" After Tsukasa Eishi answered, Xiang Ji looked back at Isshiki Satoshi.

"Senior Xiang Ji".

"The match we had earlier couldn't even be considered a food battle, since you weren't taking it seriously at all!"

"One color".

"I was really serious in the previous competition!" Xiang Ji said, then asked Si Yingshi again in a low voice.

"Si-kun, would you mind if we added two more people to our food battle?"

Tsukasa Eishi shook his head. To be honest, Tsukasa Eishi didn't care how many people were in this food battle. His only goal was Xiang Ji.

“Alright, then Isshiki and Kurokiba, you two can come together.” Besides Isshiki Satoshi, Xiang Ji also agreed to Kurokiba Ryo’s request.

Since Tsukasa Eishi doesn't mind adding Isshiki Satoshi, then it makes no difference whether we add just Isshiki Satoshi or add Kurokiba Ryo on top of that.

Ultimately, it was just a private, informal food battle.

If I had to say, the opinions of the three judges, Ryudou Kobayashi, Fumio Oomido, and Alice Nakiri, are more important than Xiang Ji's.

Finally, they were the ones who tasted the food.

But this is a minor issue, since the people of this world are all known for their divine appetites. Every year, the judges for the Far Moon Autumn Selection have to taste forty dishes in a row.

Ryudou Kobayashi is still a big eater who loves to watch the excitement.

Four people eating halberds?

Isn't this more interesting than the food battle between Xiang Ji and Tsukasa Eishi? Besides, Kobayashi Ryudou has also heard of Isshiki Satoshi.

The two pillars of Totsuki Culinary Arts No. 91: the eldest son of the Isshiki family, a prestigious family in the Japanese culinary world.

As for Kurokiba Ryo?

Although Kobayashi Ryudou had never heard of him before, since Xiang Ji agreed to his challenge, he must be quite strong, right?

Ryudou Kobayashi, who loves watching the excitement and doesn't mind making things worse, had no objections at all, and even wished that more people would come.

"Seriously, what do you kids take the Polaris Dormitory's admission process for?" Oomido Fumio reached out and grabbed her afro.

"If you four brats can't come up with a meal that satisfies my palate later, you can prepare to spend the night on the lawn!"

Not only Kobayashi Ryudou, but also Ōmidō Bun'ō had no objection to Xiang Ji's proposal.

As for Alice Nakiri?

Alice Nakiri is currently standing on tiptoe, clenching her pink fist with embroidery and pounding hard on Ryo Kurokiba's shoulder, her puffed-up cheeks resembling an angry pufferfish.

"Ahhh!"

"It's actually you, A-Liang, who had the food battle with the senior first! I was here first!" Alice Nakiri shouted angrily.

"Idiot Liang."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier that I picked you up and took you home when you were homeless, Ah Liang?"

If there were any opportunity to compete with Xiang Ji, who would want to be a judge? Not all dishes are like Kobayashi Rindou.

Just after Xiang Ji accepted Kurokiba Ryo's challenge, Yoshino Yuuki and the others are now looking at Kurokiba Ryo with the same envy as Nakiri Alice.

If they had known earlier that senior Xiang Ji and Si Yingshi wouldn't mind this kind of thing, they would have said they wanted to participate just now.

Is it too late to speak up now?

Just as Yoshino Yuuki and the others were filled with envy, Kurokiba Ryou, who had tied a headscarf around his neck, suddenly let out a roar that startled them.

"Shut up!"

"If you want to boss me around, then wait until you beat me again in a food battle before you put on this act."

"You are the same!"

"Xiang Ji? Tsukasa Eishi? Isshiki Satoshi? I'll tear you all to shreds with my cooking later."

"Especially you!"

"What's the topic of the Food War? I can't wait!" Kurokiba Ryo now looked like a rabid dog full of primal beastly instincts.

Tell me quickly!

"What's the topic of the Food War now?" Kurokiba Ryo stared fiercely at Tsukasa Eishi, his menacing gaze leaving Tsukasa speechless.

……

"Why is Kurokiba acting like a completely different person all of a sudden? Is this Kurokiba's true nature?"

"Oh, how terrifying!" Tadokoro Megumi and the others were also frightened by Kurokiba Ryo.

"Right! Right!"

“You all think that idiot A-Liang looks terrible right now, right?” Alice Nakiri suddenly came over.

“Nakiri-kun.”

"How did Kurokiba suddenly become like this?"
