The beginning is only when you become a chef

Chapter 84 Competition System (Subscribe!)
[The Chef God panel has temporarily switched to Food Battle (competition) mode. 】

[Goal ① has been triggered: Participate in the first recording of the "Chrysanthemum Downstairs Contest" program and successfully reproduce an ancient themed dish (reward 1 attribute point)]

[Goal ② has been triggered: Survive 5 episodes on the show (reward 2 attribute points)]

[Goal ③ has been triggered: win the championship of this season's show and become the champion (reward 1 limit point)]

"Is this also possible? Can we just jump out of the three targets?"

Xia An's pupils shrank slightly, especially after seeing the rewards for each target, he immediately became excited.

There is no need to explain how valuable attribute points are, but what is this new thing called limit point?

what.

Could it be that he used the skills in the [Perfection] stage to break through the limit?
Xia An cast his eyes on the already [perfect] knife skills, pastry making and seasoning. Seeing that these three basic skills could no longer be broken through by gaining experience points or forcefully acquiring attribute points, he confirmed this idea.

He decided to listen patiently to Gao Shengqi's detailed explanation of the program's competition system.

The more he listened, the stranger Xia An's expression became.

Isn’t this the competition system of a certain singer program…

Including elimination rounds, breakout rounds and the finals, if he participates, he will be one of the seven top nine-star chefs in the starting lineup of the show.

Then, the program adopts a full live broadcast mode, rather than a recorded broadcast, which means that the details of each dish prepared by each chef will be watched and discussed by the audience throughout the process.

Of course, the “first phase” mentioned by Goldman Sachs is about the theme.

But it only takes one round of fighting.

Then the chef with the lowest score will be eliminated.

That is, after the "first episode" ends, a new nine-star chef will be added to the program.

The rules are crueler than the singing programs Xia An knows. After all, in every round, famous chefs are eliminated. So, if he can fight for ten episodes and reach the finals, he will face very tough rivals!

"Does your program team have so many nine-star chefs to fill in the vacancies?" Xia An asked in surprise.

Hearing this, Gao Shengqi smiled slowly and said:

"Although Juxialou has declined, it was once a famous family and still has some appeal."

"Besides, if we make it to the finals and win the title of champion of this season, we will be on the waiting list for the chef position at Juxialou..."

“This is not just a question of a culinary title, it’s about more than just honor!”

The sentence added at the end is even more meaningful.

Xia An suddenly said:
"Will there be any nine-star chefs from abroad participating?"

Gao Shengqi was stunned: "I haven't thought about this..."

"We can let some famous nine-star chefs from abroad come in to compete. The water temperature is too low to form a catfish effect." Xia An suggested seriously.

Gao Shengqi thought for a moment, then said with bright eyes:

"This can indeed be made into a highlight of the new program. I will go back and discuss it with Mr. Liu."

Xia An changed his tone:
"If you need famous graduates from the Japanese Totsuki lineage to participate in the competition, I can help you ask the "Demon King of Food"."

"Also, Ms. Nakiri Managi of the European International Gourmet Association must have many strong nine-star chefs from Europe..."

Hearing this, Gao Shengqi laughed happily and said:
"Thank you very much for your help, Boss Xia!"

A smart person doesn't need to ask too much. From Xia An's sudden change in attitude, Gao Shengqi knew that the purpose of this trip had been achieved.

He was a busy man. He had tried to stay and fight in the night market last night but to no avail. He could not delay any longer today, so he left the ancient recipe and hurried away.

After Xia An sent the person away and returned to the lobby, he saw his daughter curiously reading the "Catfish Noodles" booklet.

"Xiao Xi, do you understand?" he teased.

The little girl raised her head, her big eyes full of innocence and stupidity:

"Dad, there are so many characters I don't recognize. Why are the strokes so complicated?"

"Because it's in traditional Chinese." Xia An sat down and took the booklet from his daughter's hand into his own.

Ding.

Panel record information:

【The recipe is now 100% complete. 】

[Recipe: "Catfish Noodles" (100%)]

[Grade: Rare (Purple)]

【Progress: Beginner】

[The former chef god Liu Maoxing, in the Guangzhou special examination room, won the legendary masterpiece praised by the examiner Madam Lei Hua. ]

"Tsk tsk tsk, strictly speaking, this recipe for "Catfish Noodles" was created by Liu Maoxing in response to the "Noodles Not Noodles" theme of the special examination."

Not the same thing.

It is noodles, but it is not noodles. It is nothing more than asking the famous chefs who participate in the special assessment to make noodles that are different from people's cognition, to bring forth something new and full of creativity.

Xia An was thinking.

Wouldn't it be too bullying if we took "Catfish Noodles" to participate in the recording of the first episode of the show?
At Juxialou, in front of Liu, he used the legendary masterpieces of the former chef to kill people.

It’s exciting just to think about it.

He did not forget the recipes of "Big Galaxy Noodles" and "Face-changing Duck Seven-color Longjing Steamed Noodles".

In fact, yesterday during the day, someone from the Late Night Cooking Association came to the door and settled the food battle bets.

Open the recipe book.

[Recipe: "Big Galaxy Noodles" (100%)]

[Grade: Rare (Purple)]

【Progress: Beginner】

This is a recipe that Liu Maoxing created while traveling in southern Yunnan after passing the special assessment.

The creation story behind it is undoubtedly quite romantic.

Under the moonlight, countless shining stars appeared in the bowl of noodle.

In a dark environment, overlooking the scene in the bowl of noodles is like looking down at the galaxy in a dream.

Whatever the implication.

Or the culinary wonder of "a sparkling galaxy appeared on the table".

Obviously, if the "Big Galaxy Noodle" is reproduced in the first episode, it can also have the effect of unleashing incomparable killing.

"The question is, one episode is one round, so the competition on the theme of "Noodles" only has one round, which recipe should I use to participate in the show?"

Xia An thought for a moment and made a decision.

"The Great Galaxy Noodle" requires the lights to be turned off for the best viewing experience, which is very suitable for the environment of the night market street.

In contrast.

"Catfish Noodles" is the work presented by Liu Maoxing in the special assessment. It is more technical, creative and ingenious. Overall, it is of the utmost intensity and is most suitable for the competition.

Moreover, Xia An also has his own advantages.

He has mastered the golden skill of [White Snake Chain]!

Although the proficiency level is only [Beginner].

But through self-practice, the coordination between mind and hand has become smoother, which has greatly reduced the error rate.

There will be no problem if it is shown in front of the live camera of the show.

However, it would be safer if you could improve your proficiency in the golden skills to [Entry] or [Minor Success] before participating in the show.

But [White Snake Chain] is a gold-eating beast!
Just to upgrade from [Beginner] → [Entry] stage, you need a full 10 cooking experience points!
"What else can I say?"

"I'll continue to set up the stall tonight and become a chef. I'll burn money to earn experience and support this family of money-eating beasts!"

Therefore, Xia An was not in a hurry to study "Catfish Noodles" and "Big Galaxy Noodles".

Because once the finished dish is produced, the panel's business objectives can change at any time. Xia An also plans to set up a stall to sell "Flame Soup Dumplings" for a week to gain experience first.

"Did I forget something..."

Just as he entered the kitchen, holding a rolling pin and preparing to practice his special skills, Xia An's eyes suddenly twitched.

He couldn't help but look at the "mysterious man" in the recipe illustration.

[Recipe: "Face-changing Duck Seven-color Longjing Steamed Noodles" (100%)]

[Grade: Classic (Gold)]

[Progress: Unable to learn! ]

[Insufficient information. The time spent in evaluating the learning conditions of this recipe is unknown...]

Complete is complete.

But judging from the current situation on the panel, it seems that the learning conditions cannot be evaluated in the short term.

Even if the evaluation was made, Xia An felt that he would lack the secrets that only Chef Lin or even Chef Long could master.

of course.

Xia An currently does not know what the "secret" of Chef Lin and Chef Long's field is.

He only has the Chef's Heart corresponding to the special-grade field, one is the Daddy Chef's Heart, and the other is the City Fireworks Chef's Heart, but both are of the lowest level of white strength. If he encounters a real special-grade head-on, he will definitely not be able to defeat it.

　Make up for yesterday’s 2/4!
