Zongman: The Glowing Cuisine Conquers the Tongue of God

Although the amplifying effect of Golden Fried Rice on the Golden Light Spell only lasts for two or three hours, the effect is still amazing.

It saves you decades, no, hundreds of years of hard training!

You know, his senior brother Zhang Zhiwei is a genius among geniuses. He has practiced the Golden Light Mantra for a hundred years. Once the golden light protects his body, he is like an indestructible body of diamond.

And I just ate a plate of fried rice, but the power of the Golden Light Mantra was comparable to that of my senior brother Zhang Zhiwei?

It's not just shocking, it's scary!

Too scary!

Thinking of this, Zhang Haoran could no longer sit still.

He hurriedly threw a cell phone to Li Yang.

"This phone is exclusively for IGO star chefs. It has all sorts of features, and you can use it to buy exceptional ingredients."

"Also, the effect of your golden fried rice is too strong. An ordinary Tiger-level chef cannot rank it. I will contact a Lin-level chef to rank you right now!"

After saying that, Zhang Haoran left in a hurry.

Chapter 5: Chikiri Senzaemon's Shock

The residence of the commander-in-chief of Totsuki Academy.

The leader of the Japanese food world, the famous "Food Demon King" Senzaemon Nakiri is entertaining distinguished guests from afar.

After some pleasantries and two cups of tea, the two of them got straight to the point.

"President Zhang has come all the way from China to see me, what brings you here?"

Although Senzaemon is an old man in his sixties, he speaks with great energy and a loud voice that can be heard even from a long distance.

Zhang Haoran had long been accustomed to the other person's voice. The two of them had a good relationship and had known each other for a long time.

Because in addition to being the chairman of the IGO Gourmet Organization's Huaxia Jinghai City branch, Zhang Haoran is also the secretary-general of the IGO Gourmet Organization's Asian Continental Region, and has connections with famous chefs from all over the Asian continent.

"Captain Chikiri, I'd like you to come to China in three days to grade a newly promoted star chef!"

Zhang Haoran directly stated his purpose.

Senzaemon's eyes suddenly focused, and the gaze from his pupils seemed to be real, staring at Zhang Haoran closely.

"IGO's new star chef?"

"Not bad!"

"First time rating?"

"Yes!"

"He actually allowed me, a Lin-level chef, to grade him. Do you think he has the ability to be a four-star to five-star chef?"

This was what shocked Senzaemon the most.

To know.

IGO's star chef certification has a strict hierarchy. Generally speaking, Tiger-level chefs can certify one-star to three-star chefs, while Lin-level chefs can certify four-star to five-star chefs.

As for identifying Tiger-level and Kirin-level chefs, the Dragon Chef in charge of the restricted area needs to personally determine the level!

When a chef was rated for the first time, he actually needed a Lin-level chef like him to assess him, and he was directly rated as level four or five, skipping the one to three stars.

How could Senzaemon not be shocked by this!

As a world-renowned culinary training school, Totsuki Academy has only trained a hundred star chefs over the years.

Although every one of the top ten students of Totsuki Academy has the potential to become a one-star chef, whether they can realize their talent and how far they can go on this path remains a huge unknown.

Looking at all the star chefs who came out of Totsuki Academy, there are two who have achieved the most.

One is the chief chef and board member of Totsuki Resort, the top scorer in the graduation exam, and the highest-scoring graduate in Totsuki's history - Shimado Gin.

The other is Yukihira Joichiro, who is known as the "Gourmet Shura".

And these two are the five-star chefs of IGO.

just now.

Senzaemon heard that there was a chef in China who could compete with his two best students in his first assessment.

For a moment, Senzaemon found it difficult to accept.

Even if you are a genius, you can't be so beyond the scope, right?

Is this cheating?

So, Senzaemon stared at Zhang Haoran, wanting to get a definite answer.

Zhang Haoran smiled slightly, drank a sip of tea calmly, and said slowly:

"I don't think that person has the ability... One to three stars is not enough to show the magical effect of his dish."

"If it weren't for Liu Longchu and Lan Longchu guarding the restricted area and not allowing him to come out freely, I would even want to ask one of them to personally classify that person!"

hiss~

Senzaemon was so startled that he jumped up, hitting his knees on the table, causing the tea to jump out of the cup and flow freely onto the table.

But he ignored it and looked at Zhang Haoran in horror.

"What kind of joke is President Zhang playing?"

"What kind of status do the two Dragon Chefs hold? Even if the person you're talking about is a genius, why would we need to alarm them?"

"Exaggeration! This is too exaggerated!"

Senzaemon felt that Zhang Haoran was making a big deal out of nothing, and was also dissatisfied with him for bringing out two dragon chefs.

Chef Liu Long and Chef Lan Long are the only two dragon-level chefs in China. Their influence is not limited to China, but radiates to the entire sub-continent.

Even in Japan, the two dragon chefs are respected.

In addition, Senzaemon has some connections with the two dragon chefs, and when he sees the two dragon chefs, he respectfully calls them "Uncle Master".

Zhang Haoran signaled Senzaemon not to get excited.

"General Chikiri, please sit down first. You have no idea how amazing the golden fried rice I had last night was. It was simply incomparably wonderful."

"I once had the pleasure of trying the Sun Fried Rice made by Chef Liu Long. I think it's the best fried rice in the world..."

"But when I ate the golden fried rice made by that person, I was shocked. It was fried rice that was no less delicious than Chef Liu Long's Sun Fried Rice!"

As soon as Zhang Haoran finished speaking, Senzaemon, who had just sat down, jumped up again, looking at Zhang Haoran with even greater shock and even some anxiety.

"What do you think that fried rice is called?"

Zhang Haoran was confused and said, "Golden fried rice? What? Could it be that Commander Chiqi has heard of this fried rice?"

Senzaemon looked a little stunned, muttering to himself, "I've heard of it before, it's like thunder in my ears!"

"But... maybe I'm overthinking it. It might be a duplicate name. The golden fried rice you're eating is definitely not the one I know!"

Zhang Haoran was even more confused.

"General Chikiri, what is this golden fried rice you're talking about?"

Senzaemon said in a loud voice:

“It’s just sun fried rice, but the most authentic sun fried rice!”

"Chef Liu Long used the fragments of an ancestral recipe and his own childhood memories to create Sun Fried Rice, a replica of Golden Fried Rice."

Senzaemon calmed down for a moment, sat down again, and slowly explained:

"President Zhang should know the special relationship between my Chiqiri family and Liu Longchu."

"My father, Chikiri Shiro, was born in China. He is of Chinese and Japanese descent. He once studied under Chef Liu Long's father. That's why I call Chef Liu Long uncle."

"And Chef Liu Long's father was the number one chef under the Divine Chef a hundred years ago. He was the one with the greatest hope of becoming a Divine Chef."

"But he ultimately failed, and his whereabouts remain unknown. The world's will erased all news of him, leaving only a few words."

"And I once found some records about my master in my father's diary. Among them were several magical and extraordinary dishes. Golden fried rice was one of them, and there was also the magical mapo tofu..."

"It is said that the extraordinary cuisine made by the master master completely breaks the shackles and cannot be measured by star rating."

"Everyone knows that the extraordinary dishes made by star-rated chefs shine. A one-star chef's dishes can emit one inch of light, and a five-star chef's dishes can emit five inches of light."

"A Tiger-level chef's cooking can emit a one-foot light, a Kirin-level chef's cooking can emit a three-foot light, and a Dragon-level chef's cooking can emit a light of more than five feet."

"And the extraordinary dishes made by Master, even if the level is not high, the light emitted is more than ten feet!"

Zhang Haoran suddenly remembered the golden fried rice he had eaten last night, and the light shot straight up from the counter to the ceiling.

That distance...

Close to ten feet!

hiss~

Now it was Zhang Haoran's turn to jump in shock.

"General Chikiri, the golden fried rice I ate seemed to be what you described!"

Chapter 6: The Coming of the Tongue of God

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Senzaemon waved his hand, not believing that anyone could perfectly replicate his master's golden fried rice.

That was something that even his uncle Liu Longchu couldn't do!

Zhang Haoran's heart was filled with great surprise at this time. He did not expect that the star chef he discovered would be so extraordinary.

This is not genius at all, super genius is not enough to describe him!

He now wished he could return to China immediately and go to the two forbidden areas to find Chef Liu Long and Chef Lan Long, so that they could witness the magic of golden fried rice with their own eyes.

Let the two Dragon Chefs personally judge whether Li Yang’s golden fried rice is the same as the golden fried rice made by “Master Chef Liu”.

But then Zhang Haoran put this thought behind him.

Recently, there have been some disturbances in China's two restricted areas. The two Dragon Chefs are absolutely not allowed to leave. Not only can they not leave, but even all the idle Lin-level chefs in China have been recruited to the restricted areas.

This is also the reason why he traveled thousands of miles to find Senzaemon to classify Li Yang.

Seeing that Senzaemon didn't believe that he was eating the original golden fried rice, Zhang Haoran provoked him:

"If Commander-in-Chief Chikiri doesn't believe me, you can witness it yourself in three days!"

"Anyway, the golden fried rice I had last night, when the lid was lifted, golden light and mist shot straight up to the ceiling, enveloping the entire food hall. It was truly unforgettable!"

Senzaemon looked at Zhang Haoran in surprise and doubt, and seeing how confident he was, he became even more hesitant.

"Is it really as you said?"

"Replace it if it's fake!"

"How old is that person now?"

"Official data shows that Li Yang is eighteen years old!"

hiss~

Senzaemon gasped.

"very young!"

"A boy of this age would be graduating from high school at Totsuki Academy... Are you sure he has four or five-star strength?"

Zhang Haoran suppressed his excitement and said sincerely, "Whether Li Yang is a four or five-star player or not, Commander-in-Chief Chikiri can personally witness it. What's true can't be false, and what's false can't be true."

Senzaemon nodded and said, "Yes, I will arrive on time in three days."

"If that young man can really make Master's golden fried rice, then I will have to go to the restricted area and tell Master Liu the good news in person!"

"Who's out there?!"

Senzaemon suddenly shouted coldly outside the tea room.

All I could hear was the sound of someone fleeing in panic outside the door.

Zhang Haoran said with some concern: "Could it be that someone has planted spies here..."
