The midday session quickly came to an end, and finally the evening session began, where the heavyweight contestants took the stage.

That's Chef Xiangling from Wanmintang.

Meanwhile, Paimon was still fast asleep, drooling and making smacking noises with her mouth.

Chapter 253 The Arrival of Emptiness

The evening session features appearances by heavyweight figures.

Many famous chefs in Liyue only have time to participate in the competition during this period.

Among them was Xiangling, the head chef of Wanmintang.

Liuliting, Xinyuexuan Chef, etc.

Before the competition officially started, Xiangling rushed over with Guoba.

"Hey! Su Hao!"

Xiangling brought Guoba to the judges' table, waved to Su Hao first, and then greeted Zhongli and Ningguang.

Zhongli and Ningguang also greeted Xiangling.

"Hi, Xiangling." Su Hao waved to Xiangling; he still had a good impression of her.

The reason is simple: when I was in Inazuma, I often got to eat the dishes she cooked through Keqing or Zhongli.

Who wouldn't like a girl who cooks well?

"Lulu~" Guoba waved to Su Hao and Zhong Li, showing great excitement.

"I'm sorry, I've been too busy lately and haven't been able to visit you," Xiangling apologized to Su Hao.

She's been too busy lately and hasn't had time to visit Su Hao and the others.

It wasn't just the Wanmintang matter; there was also the preparation for "A Bite of Liyue." She was practically a co-organizer, handling all sorts of things.

She was so busy that she was completely overwhelmed. If Su Hao hadn't brought a group of people to Wanmintang for a meal, she probably wouldn't have even known that Su Hao had come to Liyue again.

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Su Hao smiled and said it was fine, because it was normal for Xiang Ling to be busy these days.

It would be strange if she wasn't busy.

"This must be a traveler. It's our second meeting."

Xiangling greeted Yingmei beside her, then looked curiously at the Paimon on Yingmei's table and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

Paimon was sleeping soundly at that moment, oblivious to all the noise and commotion outside.

Well... she's also not destined for delicious food.

"Just call me Ying." Ying introduced herself, then looked at Paimon on the table with a somewhat subtle expression and said, "She's sleeping."

"You don't need to pay attention to her, just let her sleep peacefully."

"zzzzzzz~" Paimon also cooperated by giving a snot bubble to indicate that he was sleeping soundly.

Xiangling blinked and nodded to indicate that she understood.

Xiangling was also somewhat surprised; she didn't know why Paimon could sleep so soundly here.

Because this is not exactly a sleeping paradise, the surrounding noise is quite loud, plus the smells of many different foods are mixed together.

Most people would probably feel very energetic instead of collapsing onto their desks to sleep.

Of course, she had just returned from the wilderness and couldn't wait to come to the competition venue.

It's still unclear whether Walnut created inhuman food that made Paimon, one of the judges, faint.

After a brief exchange, the competition was about to begin, and Xiangling did not stay on the judges' panel but returned to her own seat.

Guoba seemed to realize that the competition was about to begin, so he waved to Su Hao and Zhong Li and followed Xiang Ling away.

Then the intense match began.

"I wonder how much regret Paimon will feel when he wakes up."

Su Hao looked at Paimon, who was still sleeping, and couldn't help but want to laugh.

Everyone advised her not to eat it, but she still ate it anyway.

Of course, Su Hao was still quite grateful to Paimon. If she hadn't eaten, the victim would have had to choose one of the four of them.

Despite his gratitude, Su Hao couldn't help but laugh out loud at the other party's tragic experience.

"It's alright, this is just the preliminary round," Ying said, indicating that everything was fine.

Because this is only the preliminary round; the official competition hasn't even started yet.

As long as Paimon sleeps until the Liyue Tournament on the tip of his tongue ends, then everything will be fine.

"This……"

Ningguang took a sip of tea and said in a subtle tone, "Actually, I just inquired about the situation of the other beings who ate the walnut dishes."

According to Atractylodes macrocephala, the time can be as short as seven days or as long as fifteen days.

"Of course, this unlucky guy, who lasts up to fifteen days, is someone who ate all the walnut dishes in one go."

"Theoretically speaking, Paimon, who takes a bite, will only need to be in a coma for three or four days."

The culinary adventure in Liyue, which lasted three or four days, has come to an end.

After all, this event was only a small one and not as big as people imagined.

Large-scale events like the Invitation to Immortals Ceremony only last for about three days.

The first day is for warming up, the second day is for starting, and the third day is for closing.

The taste of Liyue lasts only two days.

Today is the qualifier; tomorrow's official match will determine who the true champion is.

If Paimon remains unconscious for more than two days, then this event she has been looking forward to will be completely out of her reach.

"........."

Upon hearing this possibility, Ying revealed a rather subtle expression, and then she said in a serious tone, "I will taste these delicacies in Paimon's place."

"Take a picture of it while it's at it."

"I will also write down your comments so that Paimon can experience just how delicious these foods are."

Upon hearing Ying's words, Zhongli and Ningguang looked at each other in great surprise.

"…………" Su Hao looked at Yingmei with a rather subtle expression. What was going on with her?

Where is the well-behaved Yingmei?!

Why does it seem like the pink one has turned black?!

Could this be the legendary love-hate relationship?

Although that's what he thought, the game continued.

As one dish after another was served, everyone began to taste them and then give their scores.

During this period, both Ying and Su Hao's ratings reached around 8-9.

There's no way around it, it's just too delicious, so the ratings naturally went up.

Zhongli and Ningguang are the real scorers; getting a good score from them requires a lot of effort.

The evening competition was a battle of the gods; in the end, none of the dishes served by Xiangling and the other chefs received a score below 35.

Soon, the evening competition ended, and Xiangling, along with many other chefs such as Xinyuexuan and Liuliting, passed the preliminary round and were able to participate in the official competition the next day.

If all goes well, the "Taste of Liyue" competition will conclude tomorrow at the same time and place, after which the champion will cook the Ancient Rock Lizard meat with Xiangling.

Well, of course, if Xiangling wins this competition, then the runner-up or third-place winner will cook the meat of the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard with her.

Xiangling went to great lengths to cook the ancient rock dragon lizard meat better, spending more than half a year on it.

Su Hao saw this and decided to give Xiang Ling and the other contestants a surprise at the end of the competition.

As for Paimon, she's still sleeping, the kind you can't wake up no matter what you do.

In the evening, on his way home after dinner, Su Hao opened the chat group and started contacting Lei Movie.

[Su Hao: "@LeiMovie, could you lend me some props?"]

[Lei Movie: "Props? Does it refer to the legendary kitchen utensils?"]

[Lei Movie: "What do you want to do with this?"]

[Raiden Shin: "Hmm? Could it be...?"]

[Yae no Miko: "Little guy, you're really showing favoritism."]

[Yae no Miko: "The Liyue event actually requires the items I, Inazuma no Miko, earned through daily check-ins to be given to them."]

[Su Hao: "I haven't even said what I'm going to do yet, and you all already know?"]

[Su Hao: "However, I do think this is a suitable opportunity."]

[Gui Zhong: "It's indeed suitable; otherwise, why would I have agreed to hold this event?"]

Zhong Li: "………………"

[Nagarjuna: "...Gui Zhong, is there really no problem with what you're saying?"]

[Ke Qing: "Cough cough cough."]

[Gui Zhong: "Compared to that, I think you're more curious about what kind of effects the food made with legendary cooking utensils will have, right?"]

[Gui Zhong: "That's why I specifically approved this operation and even had the Liyue Seven Stars take it a little seriously, hoping that Su Hao can come and have a good time."]

[Gui Zhong: "Hmm~ Let's also see~ what kind of delicious dishes those legendary kitchen utensils can create in front of professional chefs."]

[Raiden Shin: "Now that you mention it, I'm a little curious too."]

[Aberdo: "Curiosity +1."]

[Abedo: "Judging from the introduction, the legendary cooking equipment has good potential; maybe it can really create some amazing dishes."]

Klee: "Klee wants to eat something sparkly!!!"
