The story of Shokugeki begins when Alice picks him up and brings him home

The skillful grandmother smiled and shook her head, not agreeing to Bai Yuan's challenge.

She hadn't accepted a challenge from anyone for many years. She naturally couldn't accept a situation where winning was a given but losing would be a laughing stock.

Of course, the more important thing is that she couldn't see through Bai Yuan. She originally thought that he was just a chef with a little talent, but that seemed not to be the case.

How far can a genius who can easily make glowing dishes grow in the future? What is his current level?

"Is that so? That's a pity."

Hearing the firm words of the skillful grandmother, Bai Yuan showed a regretful expression on his face. Why are they all like this? No one is willing to compete with him! The more powerful people are, the more afraid they are of competition?

The image of Master Baiyao appeared in my mind. The other party seemed to say that he would fight him after he broke through the special five-star level. Does that mean he doesn't have enough experience now? !

Really, why bother with these false reputations?

When you meet a suitable opponent, shouldn’t you just go straight to the ring and fight with all your might to improve your cooking skills?

"I have something else to do now, so I'll take my leave now."

Thinking about what she was going to do next, the skillful grandma quickened her pace and left, leaving a few people standing there looking at each other.

Although it was exaggerated for Bai Yuan to want to challenge the veteran strongman Qiaoshou Po Po, no one at the scene thought he was arrogant. Instead, they felt it was natural.

This seems like something Bai Yuan would do.

At the same time, the main door of the fighting arena slowly opened. When everyone heard the sound, they all looked over and saw several figures waiting at the door.

"It's you. Why are you here?"

Looking at Li Wanwan and others waiting at the door, Bai Yuan looked a little surprised.

After all, they didn't have much interaction with each other, so he didn't expect that they would wait for him at the door, and it seemed like they waited for quite a long time.

"Of course I'm here to wait for you! Have you...really passed the special chef assessment?"

Wang Wanqing, who was standing behind Li Wanwan, saw the top chef armband on Bai Yuan at a glance and covered her mouth in shock, her face full of disbelief.

"A 19-year-old top chef is a very rare existence even in the whole of China. I didn't expect you to actually do it!"

After hearing what Wang Wanqing said, Li Wanwan also noticed the armband on Bai Yuan's clothes. A lifelike dragon was coiled on it, with the word "特" firmly locked inside it.

Without a doubt, this is the armband of a top chef!

“He actually passed…”

Looking at the dragon-shaped armband, Hojo Midori's face turned slightly red and she looked very shocked.

Although I know that Bai Yuan may be very strong, but he passed the special chef assessment at the age of 19, which is known as the most difficult in history, Guangzhou! This is too exaggerated!

Even in Totsuki Academy, only Senior Dojima Gin, who graduated more than ten years ago and got the highest score in history, has ever received this honor!

Senior Dojima is now the head chef of Totsuki Resort, a four-star chef! He is only 35 years old this year and has great prospects for promotion!

"It's simple, okay? It's just a special-level test, it's easy for me to handle it."

Seeing the two people's surprised expressions, Bai Yuan shrugged speechlessly. Coming here to take part in the special assessment was actually no different from playing.

"Bragging! You must have gone through so many tests and finally passed with great difficulty! It's already amazing that you passed. We won't laugh at your efforts."

Wang Wanqing curled her lips, thinking that Bai Yuan was bragging. Guangzhou is recognized as the most difficult place in China to test top chefs.

Even if Bai Yuan passed the test, he must have tried his best, gave everything he had, and moved the judges with his passion to pass. How could it be as simple as he said?

In response, Bai Yuan just shrugged without giving any further explanation.

"What a majestic armband. My dad has one too, but he won't even let me touch it. He usually keeps it locked in his study."

Li Wanwan gently touched the special chef armband with her fingers, her eyes filled with strong envy. This was the goal she was willing to strive for all her life!

"Bai Yuan, can you lend me the clothes we just agreed on?"

Suddenly, a sweet voice sounded in Bai Yuan's ears, startling both Bai Yuan and Li Wanwan.

The girl was speaking French, and only Bai Yuan could understand her at the scene, while Li Wanwan was completely confused.

"Take it and wear it. I won't give you pants."

As Bai Yuan spoke, he took off his top chef's coat and, in front of everyone's surprised gazes, threw it to Leah who was waiting nearby.

Leah took the clothes and put them on immediately. There was still some of Bai Yuan's body temperature on it, but she didn't care. Feeling the warmth of the special chef's uniform, a flush of excitement appeared on her face.

"Why would you lend such an important piece of clothing to someone else? And let her wear it directly..."

Looking at Leah, who was wearing a top-notch chef's coat, walking around, posing, and taking pictures of herself in a handsome pose with her mobile phone, Li Wanwan pulled Bai Yuan's arm and spoke in a flute-like voice in her ear.

"It's not something particularly important. Clothes are just decorations for a top chef. Without this dress, would I no longer be a top chef? That's unlikely."

Looking at Li Wanwan's anxious expression, Bai Yuan was a little confused. Was this guy taking external things too seriously? This was not good.

"Isn't it important..."

Hearing Bai Yuan's answer, Li Wanwan's expression froze, and then she muttered to herself, with a look of confusion in her eyes.

"Come to think of it, I haven't asked you how your exam went yet. Did you pass it? How about Miyoko? Did you cook the 18th dish perfectly this time?"

Thinking that Li Wanwan and Hojo Midori were also here to take the chef level assessment, Bai Yuan looked up at their faces and asked.

“No… I had no idea what the theme was, and the dish I made was a little off the theme, so I was eliminated.”

"I did pass. I performed quite well. The judges also said that if I continue to hone my skills for another three years, I can start taking the first-class chef assessment."

Hearing Bai Yuan's question, Li Wanwan suddenly became depressed, and her eyes revealed a deeper confusion. However, Hojo Miyoko was very excited and talked nonstop, not noticing that the expression of the person next to her had become a little bitter.

"In that case, let's have special training. It just so happens that I will be staying in Guangzhou for a while, and I will guide you as much as possible during this time.

The guidance of a top chef is something you can’t buy with any amount of money, so you should learn well during this period of time.”

Looking at the confused expression of the girl and thinking that he had things to do in Guangzhou, Bai Yuan made a suggestion, thinking in his heart that he could be closer to the girl.

Wealth nourishes people.

None of the girls at the scene were ugly. They were all beautiful in their own ways. If they were in the previous life, they would definitely be the ones that people would fight over! How could he not be moved?

Of course, the more important thing is Li Wanwan's father. As a local boss in Guangzhou and a three-star chef, he might be able to help him find what he is looking for.

However...after all, this is not the world of "Cooking Master Boy", and it is still unknown whether the legendary kitchen utensils exist here.

At least, he had never heard of such rumors. Even if he asked around, no one had ever heard of the legendary kitchenware.

But, since he has come to Guangzhou, it would be unreasonable not to look for it carefully, which is why he decided to live here for a while.

"Would you like to instruct us? How much an hour?!"

Hearing Bai Yuan's words, Li Wanwan opened her mouth in surprise and asked excitedly, "This is a top-grade chef! There are less than 30 top-grade chefs in the entire Guangdong Province!"

"Just give it according to the market price."

Bai Yuan said casually that he had not intended to charge any money, but since Li Wanwan took the initiative to bring it up, he would charge a symbolic amount, otherwise their studies would not be fulfilled.

"But I don't have that much money... A top-notch chef would charge a fortune for just a little guidance."

"Then give me according to your ability. I am willing to teach you because we are destined to be together. I am not after your money. As long as you have the intention, that's all."

"I have over a million in savings now. If you are willing to teach me, I can give it all to you as my apprenticeship fee!"

Hearing Bai Yuan's words, Li Wanwan did not hesitate at all. This was the money she had saved since she was a child. Because her family was strict, she only saved this little.

"That's enough. Then you should arrange a house for me that's not too far away and preferably has a bigger kitchen. Otherwise, it won't be easy to show off."

Bai Yuan nodded, and then put forward a new request. He had already passed the special assessment, so it would be a bit of a waste to continue staying in the hotel.

Moreover, there is no kitchen in the hotel room, and it is impossible to invite Li Wanwan and others to come over. He doesn't want to spend a lot of time commuting every day.

"Leave this to me. I bought a villa near Wanwan's home. It's over a thousand square meters. The kitchen alone takes up a hundred square meters. Wanwan often conducts special training there!"

When Wang Wanqing heard that Bai Yuan needed a house, she immediately trotted forward as if some keyword had been triggered, and took out a bunch of keys from her waist like a magic trick, and found the key to the villa among them.

"Take it. It's free for you to use. Remember to be nice to Wanwan."

Wang Wanqing generously threw the key to Bai Yuan, showing extraordinary generosity.

"Thank you, but how many houses do you have? You need such a big bunch of key chains."

“This is only one-tenth of my family’s, I’m not sure exactly how much.

This was a birthday gift my parents gave me when I was 18. They said it was to help me get used to the life of collecting rent. There were one or two days every month when I was very busy. Sometimes I really wanted to quit. ”

Hearing Bai Yuan's curious question, Wang Wanqing picked up the keys and shook them, which made a crisp sound. It looked like there were about a hundred keys.

And this is only one tenth...

The corner of Bai Yuan's mouth twitched, and for the first time he understood what it meant to be rich and inhumane.

"Bai Yuan, I'll give it back to you."

On the other side, Leah, who had put on her clothes and taken suitable photos, had already changed her clothes and came to Bai Yuan with her hands folded.

"Okay. So what are your plans next? Are you planning to go back to France?"

Looking at the little girl in front of him, Bai Yuan asked with a little curiosity.

"No, my brother and I want to hone our skills in this land. Our next destination is Shanghai. I heard that there is a young chef competition being held there, so my brother and I are going to take a look."

Leah said with great energy that Guangzhou, Shanghai and Sichuan are all famous food cities and one can definitely learn a lot by traveling there.

Plus, there was a competition being held there, and the prize for first place was the status of a top chef. They wanted to go and try their luck, maybe they would succeed!

"Well, I wish you safe journey and good results in the competition."

"Well, I wish your cooking skills improve as well."

Hearing Bai Yuan's blessing, Leah stood there thinking for a while, then spoke to him with a smile. After that, she suddenly took a step forward, stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the face.

"See you soon."

Having said this, Leah took her brother's arm and trotted away.

Bai Yuan was left standing there in a daze, touching his face with his hands, feeling the wetness, and couldn't help but recall the feeling just now.

"Teacher Bai Yuan! They've already gone far away, don't look at them anymore. Kissing on the cheek is just a French etiquette, it expresses friendship, not love!"

Looking at Bai Yuan who was in a trance, Mu Jiuchi Yuanguo ran up at some point and said something beside him with some jealousy.

After spending some time together, she had developed a fondness for Bai Yuan. Now, seeing him obsessed with another girl, she naturally felt unhappy.

"I know. I'm just thinking about things and making plans for your future lessons."

Seeing Mukuchi Engo suddenly approaching and unceremoniously revealing her snow-white body in front of him, Bai Yuan instantly came to his senses and said nonchalantly.

Leah was too sudden just now. Although she could dodge, why not? Beautiful girls are always popular wherever they go. Even Bai Yuan is just an ordinary person at this time.

"Make a teaching plan for 'you' later? Can Kadozaki-senpai and I stay with you from now on?!"

Realizing the key to Bai Yuan's words, Mujichi Yuanguo's body trembled slightly. He clenched his fists in front of his chest, looked at him excitedly and asked.

This shaking attracted Bai Yuan's attention again. It was impossible not to look at this situation!

What a foul guy!

"If you are not in a hurry to return to Japan, and are willing to stay here with me for a while."

Bai Yuan did not deliberately look away, but looked at him openly, and Mujichi Engo seemed not to notice and hugged his neck excitedly.

"Great! I thought you were going to tutor them exclusively and leave us alone!"

After a short period of tutoring, Mujichi Enka's cooking skills improved dramatically, which also made her realize Bai Yuan's level.

She naturally didn't want to give up such a great teacher, but she didn't have any money...

Therefore, when Li Wanwan was speaking just now, she kept her head down and dared not say a word. She could not let Bai Yuan suffer for her own selfish interests.

And now, Bai Yuan took the initiative to say that he wanted to take them with him. How could she not be extremely excited!

"Anyway, let's go back first. This isn't a place to talk. Let's go find a morning tea shop to eat something. Does that skillful old lady have an apprentice? I want to go to her apprentice's shop and take a look."

Thinking that Master Baiyao has an apprentice, Grandma Qiaoshou must have one as well. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in every battle. Before challenging Grandma Qiaoshou in the future, he decided to get to know her apprentice first.

"The apprentice of Grandma Skillful Hands? The one who presided over the examination this time was Grandma Skillful Hands! She is very strict. It is said that it takes four to five years to produce a special grade."

Hearing Bai Yuan's words, Li Wanwan was immediately surprised, and then looked at Jin Lanyu who was packing up and preparing to leave not far away.
