Chapter 660: Chapter 660: Never Heard Of It

Wan Jinxin’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with disdain, "That kid’s clumsy appearance, and he dares to participate in the medicinal food competition?"

Wan Jinxin’s words were filled with contempt.

Meng Yunde chimed in, "You’re telling me. But, although that kid isn’t much skilled, with the way he’s so close to Miss Cui, you can’t guarantee she won’t help him out behind the scenes."

Wan Jinxin’s expression darkened slightly.

That was indeed true, Cui Ruyun herself started with a restaurant, and she certainly must have some secret recipes for medicinal food. Just casually bringing out a few could probably help this kid go far in this competition.

"Hmph, he offended me, and he still wants to participate in the medicinal food competition? Sheer wishful thinking!"

Wan Jinxin then said to an assistant beside him, "Call the judging panel of the competition now, I want to get this Chen surnamed guy disqualified!"

"Yes, Young Director Wan!"

Meng Yunde hurriedly said with a fawning smile, "Young Director Wan’s power is great, dealing with a mere Chen Xuan is as simple as crushing an ant."

"Moreover, Young Director Wan, our Meng Family Restaurant is also participating in the medicinal food competition this time, and our restaurant, being a century-old brand, is just about to use this opportunity to transform and enter the health industry."

"Your investment bank is rich in capital, and is the partner that our Meng Family Restaurant has always been seeking."

"I just don’t know if Young Director Wan could give our Meng Family Restaurant a chance?"

Meng Yunde looked at Wan Jinxin with a face full of expectation, utterly obsequious in attitude.

In fact, this was the main reason Meng Yunde came to speak to Wan Jinxin.

Not only could he have Wan Jinxin take revenge for him, but he could also bring huge benefits to the Meng Family Restaurant. This was surely killing two birds with one stone!

Wan Jinxin glanced at Meng Yunde and snorted arrogantly, "Rest assured, since you’ve helped me, I definitely won’t let you down. It doesn’t matter who gets the championship, so it might as well benefit you!"

Upon hearing this, Meng Yunde was overjoyed, "Really? Then I’ll thank Young Director Wan in advance!"

The first day was just for the contestants to register and familiarize themselves with the environment.

This medicinal food competition had nearly a thousand individuals and teams participating, making it an unprecedented grand event.

One thousand participants were divided into ten groups. From the initial preliminaries to the finals, only one contestant from each group could advance to compete for the gold, silver, and bronze prizes.

Those who didn’t make it to the finals could only compete for some of the remaining nomination awards.

To ensure fairness, the entire competition, from the preliminaries to the finals, employed anonymous judging.

Which means that from start to finish, the ten judges didn’t know which dish came from which contestant—it was highly confidential.

Of course, this so-called confidentiality was only theoretical, and when put into practice, it was difficult to avoid mishaps.

The next day, the preliminary round of the medicinal food competition officially began.

Chen Xuan was assigned to Group Seven.

Just arriving at the location, a young man dressed in a chef’s uniform came out, drawing special attention.

Seeing this young man, the faces of the contestants beside him immediately showed a look of dejection.

They recognized at a glance that the clothing worn by this young man was that of a Six-star Golden Hat Chef!

Six-star Golden Hat Chefs are the highest ranking in the culinary world. There are at most one thousand people globally who have achieved this level. On average, the number of chefs at this level in any given country can almost be counted on one hand!

And now, such a rare top-level chef was standing right in front of them, which was truly shocking to all the contestants.

It also made them feel a great sense of crisis.

"My God, a Six-star Golden Hat Chef!?"

"What’s the point of competing now? In our group, the only one guaranteed to advance will be him!"

"We’re actually competing against a six-star top chef? This has to be a joke!"

"It’s over, there’s no hope left!"

At that moment, cries of despair echoed throughout Group Seven.

Meanwhile, the six-star golden hat chef made his way straight to Chen Xuan.

"You’re Chen Xuan, huh?" The six-star chef lifted his chin, full of arrogance, his eyes brimming with disdain.

Chen Xuan glanced at him, his expression cold, "Do I know you?"

The six-star chef scoffed, "You don’t know me, and you’re not worthy of knowing me."

"All you need to know is that with me in this group, you can forget about ever standing out!"

After speaking, the six-star chef cast a glance toward Meng Yunde at Group Four, and they exchanged smiles.

Chen Xuan looked at the six-star golden hat chef before him and then at Meng Yunde not far off, instantly understanding everything.

It seemed that the reason this six-star golden hat chef was so hostile toward him must be related to Meng Yunde.

Chen Xuan’s guess was entirely correct!

In fact, this six-star golden hat chef had been intentionally brought in by Meng Yunde to deal with Chen Xuan, specifically to block Chen Xuan’s chances of advancing!

Although Meng Yunde had never witnessed Chen Xuan’s culinary prowess, nor knew whether he was genuinely skilled in therapeutic cooking, after the incident where he had been beaten, Meng Yunde had the lingering feeling that Chen Xuan was somewhat unfathomable.

Therefore, he had gone to such lengths, determined not to give Chen Xuan any opportunity!

At this moment, the six-star golden hat chef continued, "However, out of respect for our samurai spirit, I’ll let you die with some understanding. My name is Chiye Masao, from Sakura Country!"

"What, Chiye Masao?!"

"The culinary god of Sakura Country, Chiye Masao?!"

"My God, someone like him would be more than qualified to be our judge, yet he’s competing against us? This is totally a waste of talent!"

Most of today’s participants were chefs, and they all had heard of the culinary god Chiye Masao from Sakura Country, so they were all extremely shocked at the moment.

Even Cui Ruyun frowned slightly upon hearing the name Chiye Masao.

She had heard of him too, as not only was his culinary skill exceptional, but his expertise in health cuisine was also incredibly profound.

This time, it would be genuinely troublesome for Chen Xuan to advance!

Chen Xuan, hearing Chiye Masao’s words, remained expressionless.

"Oh, never heard of him."

With just a few simple words, he completely stunned the crowd.

He hadn’t even heard of a culinary god like Chiye Masao? Was someone so ignorant even fit to mingle in the culinary world?

Seeing Chen Xuan’s reaction, Chiye Masao was also seething with anger.

In his view, not having heard of his name was the utmost disrespect!
