Qian Shou flipped the tablet over to show him Rui Shan's bank account, which was now empty. Then his phone started ringing incessantly. Qian Shou raised her hand and said, "Answer it, it's a big surprise."

"Ruishan, are you really going to terminate the contract with us and return all the consulting fees?!" An excited male voice came through the phone as soon as it connected. Ruishan's expression immediately changed. "No way! Transfer the consulting fees again this month!"

The angry boy hung up the phone, but it rang again. He didn't answer, but the phone kept ringing. He looked at Senju with a grim expression and asked, "What did you do?"

“It’s nothing,” Thousand Hands waved his hand, putting on a villainous face. “I just transferred all your funds and sent text messages to all the companies you had contracts with, terminating the contracts.”

"Now you can have a food battle with me, right?" Senju shook her tablet. "If you beat me, I'll lift the restrictions on your account. Shall we have a match?"

"Damn it, you're only arrogant now," Ruishan said, glaring at Senju. Senju pointed to the badge he was wearing. "Look here, look here."

"Commander-in-Chief?!" Ruishan's eyes narrowed, then he carefully examined Senju. "Enter..."

"A food battle is fine, but the conditions are too unfair to me. As a prerequisite for the food battle, you must first remove the restrictions on my account, I will specify the dish, and as the wager, if you lose, you will become my subordinate!"

“Sigh,” Senju swayed weakly, “There are too many conditions, so I’ve made myself perfectly clear, haven’t I? You bet your title as one of the Ten Masters, and I’ll bet all your money.”

The delinquent's forehead was bulging with veins. This was a bet from a ghost?! These were all his own things! But judging from the other person's appearance, his cooking skills weren't very good, otherwise he wouldn't have persisted. But since he knew he was going to lose, why did he still start a food battle?

"As a bonus, you can choose the food battle," Senju said casually. In reality, he was just a cook. Ruizan looked at him carefully and then realized one thing: the other party's cooking skills were definitely not very good.

The other party must be a super expert in hacking, but I have absolute confidence in my cooking skills. Even if it's a guest invited by the commander-in-chief, I won't back down. I'll use this incident to ask the commander-in-chief for more funds and permissions as compensation!

Thinking this way, he calmed down. Although it was a game he was sure to win, he still felt it was a huge loss to bet his own money. But if he didn't agree, the skilled hacker on the other side might actually take all his funds. Damn it, he'd have to find a hacker to get all his money back. "Okay, I agree. The topic is 'beef'! The time is tonight! If you lose, you'll have to pay out the equivalent of all my current assets."

“Hmm, very good. If you lose, the title of the Elite Ten will be mine,” Senju nodded, then turned to look at the window. “Well then, I’ll take my leave now. The notary will notify you of the address. I’ll go now.”

Chapter 1519 Preparations

Then, to the delinquents' horrified gaze, Senju kicked through the window and jumped out—this wasn't the first or second floor! He rushed to the window and saw that the guy had already landed safely on the ground more than ten meters below and was walking away into the distance. He couldn't help but grit his teeth, "What a madman! What was the Commander thinking, inviting such a dangerous person here!"

But when such a highly skilled madman came looking for him, after a moment of anger, he could only sit there helplessly, then took out his walkie-talkie and shouted, "Everyone who can still hear me, come up here!"

But no one answered from inside, so he could only leave with a livid face. The first thing he saw was a pile of bodyguards and henchmen. He went back inside, filled a large glass with cold water, and then splashed it out, yelling, "Damn it, get up right now!"

By this time, Senju had already arrived outside the school gate. To be honest, this school was really too big, full of forests. It had taken him quite a while to run from the building to here, stepping on the treetops.

Upon arriving here, Senju saw four restless, pale-faced people exchanging insincere conversations not far from the entrance. These were the notary and three referees that Senju had recruited. They all had good reputations and lived nearby, but they all had some health problems.

The identities of the individuals are as follows: Notary Taro Isshin, 39 years old, suffers from heart problems and is unable to preside over the exciting competition; Referee No. 1, Gourmet Kawakyu Ishiyama, 42 years old, has lost his sense of smell; Referee No. 2, Gourmet Mori Oki, 35 years old, has lost his sense of taste; and Referee No. 3, Gourmet Naoyoshi Ueno, 37 years old, suffers from anorexia.

They are all very famous gourmets. Unfortunately, as people in the food industry, it's normal for them to develop illnesses from tasting all kinds of food. They dare not easily expose their problems and are currently secretly seeking medicine everywhere. After receiving the text message, they came over involuntarily. Well, Qian Shou just used a little inducement.

"Hello, this is the group I booked," Senju said as she walked over. The four looked at Senju hesitantly, then at the others around her. Senju nodded, took out a small box from behind her, and opened it to reveal four test tubes labeled with names. The test tubes contained liquids of different colors, each one looking crystal clear. "This is your medicine. Just drink it directly. It will take effect in three minutes, and there's even a surprise!"

"This is our medicine?" The group looked at each other in surprise. So they were the same as them. They nodded knowingly, then unconsciously picked up the test tubes with their names on them, drank the liquid inside, and waited anxiously.

Actually, those liquids were just for show; what was actually working was Senju's magic. Now that they weren't on campus anymore, after healing them, Senju also enhanced their sense of taste and smell tenfold.

A moment later, the middle-aged man with the dejected look on his face, Shi Shanchuan Jiu, who had lost his sense of smell, twitched his nose with a look of surprise. "I, I can smell again, and the impact of this smell is dozens of times stronger than before!"

"My, my tongue!" Mori Oki shouted, while Naoyoshi Ueno rubbed his stomach beside him. "I feel so hungry, and what's this smell?!"

"..." Senju watched speechlessly from the side, while the others beside him looked completely absorbed. Senju realized they had entered an illusion; one had transformed into a dog-nose person, flying through nature following scents, and another...

Licking everything indiscriminately, one was devouring everything in sight, while Isshin Taro, who had a heart problem, was touching his own heart, looking somewhat uncertain. Senju immediately used magic to confirm it for him, "This, this is truly a miraculous medicine! It actually cured my heart disease in one go!"

The three gourmets who had fallen into the hallucination also came to their senses, and then looked at Senju with excitement, "What was that potion just now? It cured our illnesses in an instant, and our sense of smell and taste were enhanced dozens of times! It's simply a miracle drug!"

"You all seem to know a lot, so it's easier to explain. This is a special medicine produced by my company. Each vial is designed for a specific person and costs millions of dollars. It can not only cure the corresponding disease, but also enhance the sense of taste and smell by dozens of times. Each vial costs fifty million US dollars," Thousand Hands advertised irresponsibly, then looked at the excited group, "But please rest assured, these medicines are the payment for this Food War, so there's nothing to worry about. Now it's time to get to work."

“Of course, it’s our honor,” the promoted group immediately became confident. After all, those selected from countless people were not useless. Then they asked Senju about the two sides of the Food War. When they heard that the Elite Ten were participating, they became even more excited and said that they would take charge from beginning to end. They picked up the phone and excitedly contacted the Food War Management Bureau.

“Boss, since the topic is beef, I know someone at ‘Mito Meat Products’ who can get A5 grade beef from them,” Ueno Naoyoshi, who had been looking dejected but now radiated confidence, offered a suggestion to Senju. Senju nodded. “Okay, then I’ll leave it to you. One million has already been transferred to your account. Once you’re ready, let me and that Elite Ten know. My number is the one that sent you the text message.”

"Yes, boss, we will definitely do our best," the group quickly bowed and then got to work. Thousand Hands returned to the school, and the world consciousness immediately rushed over aggressively, as if it wanted to perish together with him. However, after Thousand Hands raised its fist, it immediately 'accepted advice' and ran off to another place.

"Damn it, this world is a place where you can cook with superpowers, and you won't let me use my superpowers? That's asking for a beating!" Thousand Hands said, shaking his fist. Of course, that wasn't the main reason. The main reason was that Thousand Hands hadn't gone too far, and besides, the world's consciousness here couldn't defeat Thousand Hands!

Then Senju prepared the ingredients. A5 beef? It sounded high-end, but it was still far inferior to the materials Senju was going to prepare. He prepared the best meat from a sixth-tier cow that he had obtained from the Little Garden World. According to the calculation here, that should be considered SS5 level beef.

By the way, Senju also took a lot of spiritual fruits and plants. Although Senju was not very good at cooking, he could still easily defeat his opponent by imitating the cat and relying on the suppression of the ingredients. Senju thought to himself, and then continued to stroll around the campus. Not long after, he saw the red-haired boy Yukihira Soma, the blue-haired girl Tadokoro Megumi, and a few others walking towards him. Were they out of school?

Chapter 1520 The Courageous Rabbit

"Hey, the teacher who ate that awful apple earlier!" Soma Yukihira greeted them in a rather strange way. Senju looked at the group, and since the world's will was right there, everyone could be said to be blessed with good fortune. However, these few people's fortune was even higher than that of ordinary students.

Hearing Yukihira Soma's words, Senju retorted, "Oh, isn't this Snow White Yukihira Soma who ate the poisoned apple? You seem to be in good spirits now. Want another apple?"

"Let's forget about it, those poisoned apples are too dangerous," Soma Yukihira waved his hand. The girls next to him looked at the two of them in surprise, and a lively girl with a bun asked curiously, "Yukihira, who is this?"

"Ah, that weird teacher I ran into in class today, a poisoned apple made me feel terrible for over ten minutes," Soma Yukihira said casually, causing the others next to him to shrink back. "A poisoned apple?! Yukihira-kun, are you alright?"

"It's alright, it's alright. Luckily, Tadokoro made the dish, otherwise I felt like I would have been doomed. Tadokoro is really amazing, I learned a lot from him," Yukihira said casually. The people around him breathed a sigh of relief and then looked happily at the classmate who was holding a book and smiling. "Megumi is amazing, I knew that a long time ago."

"Hmm, but Megumi's acting a little strange today," another beautiful girl with long red hair looked at Megumi Tadokoro with some confusion, "but it doesn't seem like anything's wrong."

"Hmm~" The two girls stared at Tadokoro Megumi, who was smiling. As for Yukihira Soma? Anyway, he wasn't poisoned, which was a minor matter for a chef. Tadokoro Megumi smiled and said, "Yuuki, Ryoko, I'm fine. Why are you two staring at me?"

“No, no, this is very wrong,” the two girls circled around Megumi Tadokoro, scanning her up and down with their eyes. Then they looked at each other and understood what the other meant. Megumi was too quiet today, unlike her usual flustered and fun-loving self!

"Megumi, how did today's class go?" Yoshino Yuuki, the girl with the bun hairstyle, asked deliberately. But Tadokoro Megumi was very happy. "I got two A's today. The teacher praised me. Hehehe."

"Huh?!" The girl with the bun was startled. Usually, Xiaohui is so flustered when she smells something, but she's so quiet now!

"Xiaohui, are you really okay? Did something happen?"

“No,” Tadokoro Megumi tilted her head in confusion, and Yukihira Soma leaned closer. “Indeed, Tadokoro wasn’t nervous at all during class today. That’s when she really showed her true abilities. But why? Could it really be because of that rabbit?”

As he spoke, he glanced at the rabbit headband that Tadokoro Megumi was wearing on the side of her head. The two girls next to him immediately exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, Megumi, you're wearing accessories! But this rabbit suits you so well, I didn't notice it at first. But Yukihira, what do you mean by saying it's related to this?"

"Well, it's just my guess," Soma Yukihira reached out and took the rabbit off his hands. Megumi Tadokoro's face slowly turned red, and then she looked around in a panic. "What's wrong with me today?!"

"Ah, it's back to normal," the two girls complained. Yukihira Soma sniffed the rabbit headband, then looked at Senju. "Sensei, is this going to be another 'dish'?"

"Ah!" Tadokoro Megumi watched as Yukihira Soma smelled the headdress, a puff of smoke rising from his head, his face turning bright red and slightly dizzy. The two girls beside him gave Yukihira Soma a reproachful look, though Senju noticed. Senju did see it, but didn't say anything, instead looking at the serious Yukihira Soma. "I said today that you can infuse your will into food, so isn't it normal to infuse your will into other things?"

“The will infused in this headdress is ‘courage,’ making people no longer afraid,” Senju said, only to see Yukihira Soma shaking his head opposite him. “How is that possible? This isn’t a game. I know that chefs can convey their emotions to their diners, but this headdress has a will? Impossible!”

"..." Senju looked at him speechlessly. The logic that made sense in the normal world didn't make sense in this culinary world. However, Tadokoro Megumi, who was swaying unsteadily, walked over and took the rabbit headband from Yukihira Soma's hand. She then put it on her head, breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled again. "Phew, Yukihira-kun, you shouldn't have just taken girls' things like that."

"Oh no! Megumi's broken!" the two girls beside her cried out in alarm. Soma Yukihira touched Megumi Tadokoro's forehead. "Tadokoro, are you alright?"

"It's alright," although her face was flushed, Tadokoro Megumi wasn't flustered. Senju gave her a strange look. Her headdress only gave her courage, but now it seemed that Tadokoro Megumi had placed a part of her spirit on it. Speaking of which, would this turn into Kotori Itsuka's black and white headscarf or Yoshino's rabbit gloves?

Senju thought to himself, and gradually reduced the effect of the headdress. He didn't want to receive a chef with a dual personality in the future. However, as he was thinking this, his classmate next to him also noticed the strange effect of the headdress. The girl with the bun quickly took off the headdress. "No, Megumi, this must be sealed. It's too weird!"

"Um, this," Tadokoro Megumi hurriedly tried to grab it, but didn't dare, so she just stood there in a panic. Yukihira Soma next to her nodded, "That's right, it feels very strange. Tadokoro, you'd better not rely on this."

"Why is this happening?" Tadokoro Megumi shed a few tears, but then gave up on the attempt. Senju shrugged on the side. "It's fine this way. By the way, I've already arranged a food battle with the ninth-ranked Elite Ten today. You can come and watch."

"What?! A food battle with the Elite Ten?!" Yoshino Yuuki exclaimed in surprise. Yukihira Soma was also very surprised. "So fast? If I had known it was this easy, I would have challenged the ninth-ranked one too!"

"No, no, no, it's very troublesome," Senju waved his hand. "First, I spent a lot of money to hire a notary and a referee, asking them not to help cheat; second, I used electronic warfare to block the radio waves of the building where the ninth person was located, locked his account, and transferred all his funds; then, I went to his door and took down all his subordinates; finally, I had a friendly conversation with him, and he agreed to the food battle. Isn't that troublesome?"

"This is a complete crime!" the two girls next to them exclaimed, while also looking at Senju warily. This guy is too dangerous!

Chapter 1521 Meat

"No, no, no, this is entirely my strength," Senju waved his hand. "Even if I beat up all his henchmen and freeze all his funds, could he refuse? I'm not a demon."

"You're a devil!" the others thought to themselves, but Soma Yukihira quickly recovered. "I'll definitely go see it. By the way, when is this Food War? What's the theme?"

"It'll probably be tonight, the theme is beef, and I've already prepared some amazing ingredients." Hearing Senju's words, the others were surprised. "Wow, so fast. Usually, shouldn't you give advance notice? Uh, I forgot about your tricks."

The girls were momentarily speechless. Soma Yukihira, standing nearby, stroked his chin. "Beef, huh? I know that stuff. The highest grade is A5. I miss those days. I used to have a similar duel with Little Meat Charm."

"Oh, you've cooked beef dishes before? Can you teach me some?" Senju looked at the boy with a nostalgic expression. "I've prepared SS5-level beef this time, so I can share some with you as payment."

"Impossible! The highest grade for beef is A5! What is SS5?"

"Wow, this is top-notch!!" Yoshino Yuuki shouted from the side, and several classmates nodded in agreement. Yukihira Soma, on the other hand, was beaming with excitement. "Really? Can I have some? Thank you so much! Oh, and with such good ingredients, let Meatball know!"

"Hello, is this Komaki?" Soma Yukihira casually made a phone call. The person on the other end seemed very excited. After Soma Yukihira finished explaining what was going on, the other person became even more excited and then hung up the phone. Soma Yukihira looked at Senju with a happy expression, "She'll be here soon."

"By the way, what dishes are you preparing for this Food War?" After his initial excitement, Soma Yukihira asked curiously. Senju shook his head. "Well, I'll think about it later. I haven't decided yet. I'm good at eating beef, and as for cooking beef, well, how about beef stew with radish? Or beef stew with potatoes?"

"Too ordinary?! And what do you mean by 'cooked to perfection'?! Are you really confident you can beat your opponent?" Soma Yukihira complained, while Yuuki looked at Senju with pity. "The Elite Ten are very strong. With your current cooking skills, you have no chance of winning!"

"Well, we'll see. I've watched a lot of food anime, so I'll figure something out," Senju shrugged, then looked at the school building not far away. "Yukihira-kun, go over there and teach me a suitable beef dish."

"A food-themed anime?" The girls nearby were speechless. Was this guy really okay? Was he trying to be funny? Did he think none of them had seen it before?!

“No, let’s go to Polar Star Dormitory. They have a wider variety of food there,” Soma Yukihira said, seeing what Senju meant. But he shook his head. “By the way, when you go, bring the kind of beef you’re looking for. Little Meat Fairy will definitely give you great advice. She’s an expert in meat dishes.”

“I see,” Senju nodded, pulling out a white, futuristic-looking suitcase from behind her back. “That kind of beef is in here.”

"When?!" The group exclaimed in surprise. Thousand Hands continued his bluff, "It's always been here. It has a vacuum-sealed, shockproof freezing function inside, which can keep the food fresh for a long time."

"Wow, what an amazing box!" Soma Yukihira looked at the box with great interest, then looked up at Senju. "Can we open it now and take a look?"

"Sure, activate the outermost armor!" Senju nodded and shouted at the box. A green light appeared on the box, followed by a 'click' sound, as if it had been unlocked. The outer white shell opened a door, revealing another transparent shell inside. Inside that shell was the beef that Senju had prepared.

"Oh, what an amazing box!" After admiring it for a while, Soma Yukihira looked at the several pieces of beef inside. "Hmm, it looks really good. It's at least better than the A5 grade I've ever seen. I wonder what Little Meat Fairy thinks of it."

"This is legendary kitchenware, a spirit vault! It doesn't use air conditioning, it uses spiritual energy to preserve food," Senju said. The people next to him rolled their eyes. Wasn't he talking about vacuum-sealed, shockproof air conditioning? Now it's become some kind of legendary kitchenware? What is that?!

"Yukihira!" A shout came from afar, and Senju saw a scantily clad, well-built girl with tanned skin running towards them. "You said you found high-quality meat, is that true?!"

"Is this really a chef?" Although she had gotten used to the atmosphere, Senju still wanted to complain when she saw the other person's clothes. Yukihira Soma, on the other hand, didn't have any other thoughts and waved to the girl, "Little Meatball, over here!"

"Stop spreading that nickname!" the girl roared, but Yukihira Soma didn't seem to repent at all and continued to wave, "Little Meat Demon, look here, I feel like these beef are amazing."

"Let me see," Meat Charm squeezed in, then looked at the beef in the box. "What are these?! How could such an absurd thing exist? There are actually beef grades higher than A5 in the world? This is not scientific!"

As the girl shouted this, Senju silently complained in his heart, "Science my foot! This is about superpowers!" Then Yukihira Soma brought up the matter of cooking in exchange for beef, and the meat-loving girl grabbed his clothes, "Then hurry up! I can't wait to try this meat!"

“Yes, yes, we’ll be heading to the Polaris Dormitory right away,” Soma Yukihira said, glancing at Senju. Senju nodded and took a few steps forward. “Then, let’s go. Close the hatch!”

The box automatically closed its white hatch and then slowly moved along with the Thousand Hands. The people around were dumbfounded. "How can this box move by itself?"

"Ah, it's a very simple follow program, controlled by a computer," Thousand Hands explained. The others nodded, seemingly understanding, but in any case, they knew it was a very powerful box.

On the way, the gossipy Yukihira Soma started talking about the possible food battle that night, and Nikumei exclaimed in surprise. By the way, Senju also learned her name from the girls next to her: Mito Ikumei. Senju felt that the name sounded familiar, but she had never heard of it before, although the surname was very familiar.

"You actually challenged the ninth-ranked Eizan. I don't know if you're lucky or unlucky," Mito Ikumi said, looking at Senju. "I heard that the ninth-ranked one has become so engrossed in business that his cooking skills have declined a lot. But even so, he's still one of the Ten Masters. I've also heard a rumor about him."

"

Chapter 1522 Polaris Dormitory

The girl paused for a moment, then continued, "I heard that if Senior Ruishan had focused on honing his culinary skills instead of getting distracted by management, he would already be number one. Don't underestimate him just because of his current appearance."

"Oh, really impressive. You can't tell at all from that big gold chain and gold ring," Senju was quite surprised after hearing the information. So that delinquent was also very powerful? It's a pity that my attention was in the wrong direction, but it has nothing to do with Senju.

“But it doesn’t matter,” Senju shrugged, glancing at Soma Yukihira beside her. “By the way, where is Polar Star Dormitory? It sounds like a really impressive place.”

"Yeah, it's a really great place. Follow me!" Soma Yukihira gave a thumbs up and led the way. Yoshino Yuuki rolled her eyes. That was her dorm over there!
