Chapter 388 Is there someone stronger than this transfer student?!
At the opening ceremony of Totsuki Academy, because the person in charge of the entrance examination supervisor this year is the "Ice Witch" Erina Nakiri, apart from the students promoted from junior high school, the only transfer student this year is Soma Yukihira.

So it is natural that as the only transfer student who passed the entrance examination, the school gave Soma Yukihira a lot of face and directly gave him the opportunity to speak on stage.

Yukihira Soma was not polite either. Even when he arrived at Totsuki Academy, facing the many Totsuki students present, he went on stage and started to mock them: "I have heard from others before that there are many powerful people in this academy, but for me, the so-called Totsuki Academy is just a stepping stone for me.

Now that I'm here, I'm above all of you, because if I can't even defeat you, how am I supposed to defeat that guy?"

Soma Yukihira's arrogant remarks undoubtedly aroused the anger of all Totsuki students present, and he even became the public enemy of everyone.

After all, anyone who could enter Totsuki Academy was a proud and arrogant person. Now he was being mocked right in the face, and the other party was an unknown transfer student. Naturally, everyone present was very annoyed.

Erina Nakiri, who was originally sitting in the audience, was also shocked when she saw Soma Yukihira on the stage and heard his speech.

Because the examiner of the entrance examination this time was none other than Erina Nakiri. She was indeed impressed by Soma Yukihira's face and the food he had made at that time, but she should have rejected him against her conscience. But why would he appear here now?

"I kept him here because I've tasted his 'egg rice' dish, and I think he's qualified to pass the entrance exam."

The person who suddenly appeared behind Erina Nakiri and started talking was an old man with a scar on his right eye, wearing a black kimono and with silver hair.

Faced with Erina Nakiri, who possesses the "God's Tongue", even the instructors at Totsuki would probably have no way to refute the dishes she judged to be unqualified.

However, facing the old man in front of her with his arms crossed, the aura he exuded was so great that even Erina Nakiri, who was like a queen, did not dare to refute him.

Because this silver-haired old man is not an ordinary person, but the commander-in-chief of Totsuki Academy, the leader of the Japanese culinary world, and the so-called "Food Demon King" Nakiri Senzaemon.

"Erina, during the last entrance exam, your evaluation of Yukihira Soma's cooking was mixed with your own personal emotions, right?"

Facing her respected grandfather, Erina didn't care about lying and could only say with a somewhat stubborn expression: "Even though his attitude is so arrogant..."

"Just as the letter said, he is an interesting boy. I have also tasted his 'egg rice' and it is indeed a very good dish.

It’s a pity that I only saw his son, but not the other young man he mentioned in the letter.

According to him, the cooking skills of another boy are far better than Soma Yukihira's. This makes me a little curious about what kind of person that boy is to receive such high praise from him.

Hearing what Nakiri Senzaemon said, Erina was surprised. At the same time, she understood why the grandfather of Marshal Totsuki would pay attention to a mere transfer student.

After a long time, from what his grandfather had just said, it seemed that the other party was the son of someone he knew.

"Erina, let me ask you, if I asked you to make a dish using eggs, would you be able to defeat Soma Yukihira on the stage?"

Hearing Senzaemon's question, Erina's face immediately showed a confident expression and said: "Of course, it is undeniable that the guy does have some strength, but as long as I get serious, he is not my opponent at all!" Erina exuded strong self-confidence when she said this. As a gifted "God's Tongue", Erina was born with a superior sense of taste.

As we all know, for a chef, taste is undoubtedly the most important sense.

No matter what kind of dish it is, Erina can tell the pros and cons of the dish just by taking a bite. This is her unique advantage over other ordinary chefs.

As long as you can identify the shortcomings in the food, you can improve them and keep improving.

It was also because of the "God's Tongue" and Erina's own efforts that she was promoted to the high school department from the top student in the middle school department of Totsuki Academy, and became the tenth seat among the "Ten Outstanding Students of Totsuki" as a first-year student.

Even though she is only the tenth place at the bottom, Erina's current achievements are still extremely dazzling in the eyes of the students of Totsuki Academy.

Totsuki Academy has a middle school department and a high school department, and like ordinary high schools, the school term is three years.

This year, there are about 820 students in the first year of senior high school, but there are only 102 students in the second year of senior high school, and the number of students in the third year of senior high school is only a few dozen.

The reason for such a huge gap in the number of people is because of the extremely cruel admission rate in Totsuki Academy.

The full name of the Totsuki Ten is "The Council of the Ten Greatest of Totsuki". It is the highest decision-making body in the academy and can decide all matters within the academy. Even teachers have to obey the arrangements decided by the Ten Greatest of Totsuki.

If you want to become one of the "Ten Greatest Students of Totsuki", your cooking skills must be among the top ten in the academy.

The three grades of the senior department have nearly a thousand students in total. However, the "Tatsuki Ten Outstanding Students" of Totsuki Academy are almost all third-year students who are about to graduate from the senior department, and very few second-year students.

As for first-year students who have just entered the senior department, there are very few examples of them becoming one of the "Tōtsuki Ten", or even almost none.

In such a situation with so many talented people, Erina was able to get a seat among the "Ten Greatest Students of Totsuki" just after being promoted from the middle class to the high class, which is enough to show Erina's strength.

Facing the confident Erina, Senzaemon did not expose the fact that his granddaughter had been making egg rice all night. Instead, he nodded slightly and said, "With your current strength, you may be able to fight on equal terms with Yukihira Soma on the stage, or even slightly better than him.

But don't think you're the real number one student in this class. If the young man he mentioned in the letter also comes to Totsuki this time, you probably won't be his match."

Erina has always been a confident and proud person. Not to mention the seniors who are about to graduate, but among the students of the 92nd class, she has always believed that she is the number one.

It is undeniable that the "Egg Rice" that Soma Yukihira made on the stage was indeed recognized by her "God's Tongue", but this does not mean that the other party can beat her, so Erina is a little dissatisfied with the words of her grandfather Senzaemon.
