Food Wars, my food not only glows!

　Sometime ago, they lost this ability that allowed them to progress so quickly.

　Adopting an air of authority can indeed make one appear more dignified.

　But this also deprived them of the possibility of going further. As a master, one must always retain the mind of an apprentice!

　"What an extraordinary person! It seems that Totsuki is about to get quite lively!"

　Senzaemon Nakiri sighed softly, a smile appearing on his face. The era of unpolished gems might arrive sooner than he thought!

　"call..."

　After finishing his morning run and returning home, Bai Yuan had just opened the door when a white figure rushed up and tightly hugged his waist.

　"Where did you go? You didn't even tell me before you left. I thought you'd abandoned me again!"

　As she spoke, the girl raised her head, her eyes slightly moist.

　"Isn't it because you're sleeping so soundly? Don't worry, even if I really have to leave, I'll take you with me this time."

　And surely it doesn't warrant crying?

　Bai Yuan patted Nakiri Alice's head and wiped away the tear stains from the corner of her eyes with his fingers. At the same time, he was surprised that this child had become so fragile.

　Just because he went for a morning run?

　"This is a remnant from when I woke up. I dreamt that you secretly left while I was asleep. When I woke up, I wanted to seek comfort, but you were really not there!"

　At this point, Alice Nakiri's voice carried a hint of melancholy.

　However, she was indeed being overly sensitive. Bai Yuan wasn't her possession, so how could he possibly be by her side 24 hours a day?

　"I've already made breakfast. Haven't you always wanted to try the dim sum in Guangzhou? Let's have that for breakfast today."

　Feeling the atmosphere was somewhat oppressive, Bai Yuan clapped his hands to end the previous topic and then started talking about today's breakfast.

　Six months ago, when they called each other, Alice Nakiri kept telling him that she wanted to eat Guangzhou-style dim sum, and he still remembers it now.

　"I've resolved everything."

　Upon hearing Bai Yuan's words, Alice Nakiri blushed.

　Even when heartbroken, do you still find time to enjoy the food?

　Seeing her like this, Bai Yuan couldn't help but tease her.

　"Brother Bai Yuan, with your dishes right there, how could anyone resist eating them!"

　Seeing Bai Yuan's expression, Nakiri Alice angrily punched his chest and replied with reason and evidence.

　"makes sense."

　Letting Alice Nakiri pound his chest, enjoying the wonderful moment, Bai Yuan felt that coming to Totsuki was really great!

　Especially last night...

　"Alright, I'm going to the cooking class to collect yesterday's reward. Do you want to come with me, or stay home and do your own thing?"

　After a brief moment of tenderness, Bai Yuan looked at Nakiri Alice and asked.

　"Although I really want to be with you, I've already made plans for a shokugeki with Kurokiba."

　I never expected that guy to come along too, and he keeps yelling at me every day, insisting that I have a food battle with him!

　He's clearly just a weakling, yet he's so arrogant! The agreed-upon time was this morning!

　That being said, the fighting spirit rising on Alice Nakiri's face revealed her true thoughts.

　"Kurokiba? He's certainly a formidable opponent. With his current strength, he probably wouldn't even be a match for Erina."

　Although I didn't pay much attention to Kurokiba Ryo, he kept asking me questions, so I learned a bit from him.

　Although these things are not many, they are enough to make him invincible in Totsuki, after all, his own strength is not weak, and he has always been competing with Alice.

　"Why did you suddenly call Erina? Are you two close?"

　Perhaps it was because Bai Yuan's name sounded so natural that Nakiri Alice couldn't help but puff out her cheeks, saying with a hint of jealousy.

　"Isn't this to distinguish between you and her? Besides, I only met him yesterday, how could we possibly have a good relationship?"

　"Actually, it doesn't matter if we have a good relationship, I don't care about that, but I must be the main wife!"

　Looking at Bai Yuan's appearance, Alice Nakiri put her hands on her hips and said this. After finishing, she hugged Bai Yuan's neck and kissed him on the cheek.

　Good morning, Brother Baiyuan

　. "

　Chapter Ninety-Three: Terunori Kuga, Mapo Tofu Showdown!

　"Is this place already in use?"

　In the spacious and bright classroom, Bai Yuan looked at the man sitting cross-legged on the chair with his eyes slightly closed, his expression slightly surprised.

　"No, I'm waiting for you here."

　Hearing the sound, the man opened his eyes and looked at him.

　"Waiting for me?"

　Bai Yuan's voice carried a hint of doubt.

　He recognized the person in front of him; he had coffee-colored hair with the front dyed a flamboyant gold, and he looked to be at most 1.6 meters tall, though he was a full head shorter than him when he stood up.

　His name is Terunori Kuga, the eighth seat of the Elite Ten, but that was back in his second year, and he doesn't have the Elite Ten status yet.

　"I heard you're the new Chinese cuisine instructor at Totsuki Culinary Academy?"

　Let me introduce myself. My name is Terunori Kuga, a first-year student at Totsuki Academy High School, and also the strongest student in Chinese cuisine at this school!

　Seeing that Bai Yuan seemed somewhat puzzled, Jiu Ga Teruki immediately introduced himself.

　"The strongest?"

　"That's right, it's the strongest!"

　This year, due to seniority issues, I can't become one of the Elite Ten yet. But once those old guys in the third year graduate next year, I'll definitely be able to become one of the new Elite Ten!

　Upon hearing Bai Yuan's slightly questioning words, Kuga Terunori began to boast without any restraint, a smug smile on his face.

　"Okay, so what are you doing here?"

　Looking at the young man in front of him, Bai Yuan had already guessed his purpose for coming here, but he still asked him anyway. He decided to let him say it.

　"Of course I'm here to challenge you and see if you're qualified to be the Chinese cuisine teacher at the elementary school!"

　As Kuga Terunori spoke, he raised his hand, pointed at Shirobuchi's nose, and shouted with great fighting spirit.

　Whether I am qualified to be a Chinese cuisine teacher in the elementary school seems to be none of your business.

　Hearing Kuga Terunori's words, Hakugen was somewhat surprised, then couldn't help but ask a question, feeling puzzled as to why he had been challenged so inexplicably...

　He thought this guy had come to ask for guidance, after all, he was the only Chinese cuisine teacher at the school, but he didn't expect him to be challenging him.

　The old lady crawling into bed really made the old man laugh.

　"Of course there is. Totsuki Academy already has some prejudice against Chinese cuisine. If the new Chinese cuisine teacher is a useless good-for-nothing, it will inevitably make Chinese cuisine even more despised."

　So, if you can't even beat me, then please leave Totsuki Academy, teacher.

　Kuga Teruyoshi spoke earnestly, saying that Chinese cuisine does not hold a high position in Totsuki today, and the Chinese Cuisine Research Society has only a handful of members besides him.

　If, at a time like this, a Chinese cuisine teacher with poor skills were to appear, becoming a laughingstock and bringing shame upon Chinese cuisine, that would be terrible!

　"The excellence of Chinese cuisine needs no proof! I would never have paid attention to a weakling like you in the past."

　But now that I have some free time, I might as well show you what the ultimate Chinese cuisine looks like. So, go ahead and perform to my heart's content and make me happy! Tell me, what do you want to compete in?!

　Bai Yuan was just about to preach some profound truths to Kuga Terunori when he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have done the same thing yesterday.

　Faced with a classroom rife with skepticism, they directly used cooking to prove the excellence of Chinese cuisine.

　The effect was remarkable; at least no one dared to disobey him in class anymore!

　From this perspective, appropriate proof can be somewhat useful.

　It's surprisingly interesting to see students who look down on Chinese food fighting over food like wild dogs, even getting into fights, just so they can eat more!

　No wonder some people in the culinary world enjoyed performing in a bizarre way back then.

　Beautiful women are willing to succumb to temptation and strip away all worldly possessions to become barking dogs, all for that one mouthwatering bite of delicious food.

　Of course, as an audience member appreciating the performance, although he felt it was excessive, he still watched it with great interest, after all, it was really great, exciting, and left a deep impression on him.

　If given the chance, he felt he could also do something like that, putting on a dark show in his private harem, just for himself to watch!

　[The Fallen Performance of the God Tongue]

　[The Spice Girl's Selfless Dedication]

　The Waltz of the Three Sisters

　Just thinking about it is exciting! This can't go on; if this continues, his personality will become twisted!

　"Hey! What are you spacing out for?!"

　"Say it, I'm listening."

　Kuga Terunori's voice rang in his ears, causing Bai Yuan to regain his composure.

　Despite having thought about so many unhealthy things, his face showed no change in expression; this was something he had honed in the world of culinary disasters.

　One should not show one's joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness on one's face.

　"The theme of the competition is Sichuan cuisine. I wonder if you'd be comfortable with that?"

　Seeing that Bai Yuan had come to his senses, Kuga Terunori didn't bother to say anything more and directly set the cooking theme as Sichuan cuisine, which was also his forte.

　He wasn't stupid. Since Bai Yuan could become a Chinese cuisine teacher, he must have some skills. If he drew a dish that Bai Yuan was good at, his chances of winning were really not high!

　"Sure, if I'm not mistaken, you want to make Mapo Tofu, right?"

　Since that's the case, I'll make Mapo Tofu too. That way, we'll be on the same starting line, and no matter who loses...

　No regrets.

　"Are you perhaps a Sichuan cuisine instructor?"

　Seeing Bai Yuan's confident demeanor, Kuga Terunori frowned slightly, realizing this possibility. He had really walked right into the line of fire.

　But that's fine; if I win, I can make him leave Totsuki, and if I lose, I can ask him for advice.

　There's nothing shameful about asking someone you're better at for advice!

　"I don't specialize in teaching Sichuan cuisine, but I know all the cuisines in China, so you can consider me a Sichuan cuisine teacher."

　Bai Yuan shook his head and then said.

　"So, if I lose, I'll leave Totsuki Academy. What will you do if you lose?"

　"I lost..."

　"A food battle can't happen without an equal wager."

　Seeing that Kuga Terunori had suddenly hesitated, Bai Yuan did not rush to urge him, but simply looked at him indifferently and waited for him to make a decision.

　Because he arrived early, while the others wouldn't arrive for at least another hour or two, he was genuinely bored.

　As a senior, it's perfectly acceptable for him to accept a challenge from a junior when he's bored; he's never been one to shy away from battle.

　The battle was divided into sparring and food fighting, and since the opponent was coming on strong, he naturally wouldn't give him a friendly look.

　The fact that he can speak with a smile now means he's in a good mood.

　If he's in a bad mood, he might just physically kick people out. A seven-star chef, how dare you, a mere Karami, provoke him?!

　"If I lose, you can do whatever you want with me."

　After pondering for a long time, he realized that he had nothing that could interest Bai Yuan, so the challenge was impossible.

　Since that's the case, then he'll risk everything! If he loses, he'll accept whatever punishment comes his way, whether it's dropping out of school or something else.

　"Is it really worth risking everything for a casual competition?"

　Upon hearing Kuga Terunori's words, Bai Yuan looked at him seriously for a moment, his voice filled with surprise.
