Food Wars!: God's Tongue is no match for me.

Ultimately, it all ended with a frail figure.

She was a young girl with striking blue double braids that, from a distance, resembled two rolling waves of the sea.

"Tadokoro Megumi?"

Lin Xu paused for a moment, then whispered.

Meanwhile, Tadokoro Megumi seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up, her clear, watery eyes sparkling with curiosity and nervousness.

Seeing this, Lin Xu had no choice but to look away. This girl named "Tadokoro Megumi" appeared weak on the outside, but she possessed an unknown tenacity and persistence in her heart.

As a student in the 91st class of the Totsuki Academy's elementary school.

She barely made it into the senior high school with the lowest score in the junior high school.

This experience is like a dramatic novel, full of challenges, and his path to education was certainly not easy!

……

Every single class.

Every assessment.

It was like a heavy shackle on her mind.

Megumi Tadokoro always has to work harder and put in more effort than others just to barely maintain her studies.

As a result, she often felt unbearable pain and felt that the whole world was against her.

The headmaster, Senzaemon Nakiri, once said at the opening ceremony: "99% of the people are just pawns to hone the skills of the 1%." Only a small number of students can advance to the next level, making the dropout rate extremely high!

Indeed, this educational mechanism is cruel.

But those who can survive in an environment like Totsuki Academy are undoubtedly exceptional individuals.

It is precisely because Totsuki Culinary Academy continuously supplies the culinary world with top-notch chefs every year that it is ranked number one in Japan in terms of overall strength.

However, in order to maintain excellent grades and status, students often resort to extreme measures and endure enormous psychological pressure.

such as:

Food Wars (Shikigami) system.

Its purpose is to resolve conflicts and disputes among students.

For example, when Soma Yukihira first joined Totsuki Culinary Academy, he faced discrimination from other students because he and his father ran a diner.

Clearly, this is in a highly competitive environment.

Severe class divisions and exclusion already exist within the academy.

Furthermore, judging from the later plot developments, this elite education system actually lacks depth.

Take students like Takumi, Mito Ikumi, Yoshino Yuuki, and Sakaki Ryoko, for example. After the Autumn Selection Tournament, their abilities didn't improve much.

After all.

Elite education places too much emphasis on grades and culinary skills.

However, the cultivation of students' comprehensive qualities and individuality is often overlooked.

……

"Introduce yourself."

"My name is Lin Xu. I am a top chef from China and also a second-class executive officer directly under the WGO Food Organization."

"Currently working as an instructor at Totsuki Academy, primarily responsible for the third-year elementary school curriculum!"

"Oh."

"besides."

“Your lecturer, Saya, is unwell.”

"Therefore, I will be teaching the remaining courses in your third cooking class this semester."

After gathering his thoughts, Lin Xu stood on the podium and looked at the many students below, speaking calmly.

Wow!

This statement came out.

The students looked at each other, their expressions of disbelief evident.

They never dreamed that this suddenly appearing lecturer would be the executive officer of the WGO Food Organization, which represents the "supreme" authority in the culinary world.

This news was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples and shaking the entire cooking classroom.

"Ruined!"

Upon hearing this, Tadokoro Megumi stood frozen in place, her eyes vacant.

The warmth in my heart quickly dissipated, leaving me completely cold.

Her face was completely bloodless, like a flower that had been attacked by frost in winter, fragile and powerless.

"So this lecturer named Lin Xu has quite a background."

"Then it's probably impossible for me to get a D grade from him in this class."

"Mother."

"I want to drop out of school."

"Waaaaah, Totsuki is really terrifying!"

At this moment, Tadokoro Megumi was like a small boat trapped in a vast ocean, surrounded by turbulent waves and facing unknown darkness.

But she couldn't find a glimmer of light, a sliver of hope.

……

"Quiet."

Lin Xu's voice echoed in the spacious cooking classroom, carrying an unquestionable authority.

In an instant, everyone fell silent, holding their breath.

"In this lesson, as arranged by Lecturer Saya, I plan to teach you about nutrition."

Lin Xu's eyes were sharp, as if he could see through the thoughts of every student present. He continued, "However, I must tell you frankly that the theoretical knowledge in those books is, in my opinion, far too superficial."

His words carried a hint of disdain.

Clearly, they are not satisfied with knowledge that only exists on paper.

Hearing this, the students felt uneasy. They had thought that as long as they memorized the content of the textbook, they would be able to easily pass the test in this class.

Now it seems.

The situation is not as they wished.

"I will post a recipe for Parisian onion soup."

"You must complete the production within a limited time. If it satisfies me even slightly, it will be considered acceptable and you will receive a C grade rating."

"Anything that cannot be completed, or that does not meet my standards, will be classified as Grade E!"

Say it.

Lin Xu then turned around and picked up an oil-based pen.

On the whiteboard, I quickly wrote down the recipe information for this Parisian onion soup.

The complicated steps and precise ingredient ratios dazzled the students, making them even more apprehensive.

……

"How could this be?"

"Aren't practical courses only available in the higher education level?"

Tadokoro felt like the sky had fallen. To prepare for this class, she had stayed up all night memorizing all the key points of the book "Cooking and Nutrition Education".

As a result, all these efforts have now been in vain.

at the same time.

The atmosphere in the cooking class began to become unusually tense.

Every student stared intently at the recipe information on the whiteboard, afraid of missing any detail.

Tadokoro Megumi bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes also fixed on the whiteboard. Despite feeling utterly hopeless, she still didn't want to give up so easily.

"Okay, the test begins!"

At Lin Xu's command, the students immediately sprang into action.

They all headed to the kitchen counter to prepare the ingredients and tools needed to make Parisian onion soup.

……

Parisian onion soup.

Traditionally, it is made with butter, broth, white wine, and spiced caramelized onions.

Then, bake it in the oven with the cheese and bread.

Some French chefs.

Grated cheese will be added to the soup.

The stringy cheese strands add texture and make it fragrant but not greasy!

Chapter 7 The Awesome Far Moon Instructor, Lin Xu

In China, onions have roughly two main uses:

One use is as a teaching aid.

Secondly, it could be used as an instrument of torture.

Most Chinese people first encounter a whole onion not in the kitchen, but in a high school laboratory.

Under the microscope, we observed the legendary plant cell structure. After all, onion skins are easy to peel, process, and preserve, which can cover various experimental needs in middle school.

However, onions are extremely effective at causing tears because they contain a substance called allicinase.

Therefore, this news came about:

A girl in Zibo bought a ton of onions online and sent them to her ex-boyfriend. The entire truckload required dozens of trips by the deliveryman. A note was attached to the package: "I cried for three days. Now it's your turn to cry."

According to the latest news, the ex-boyfriend said he didn't cry after receiving the onions and resold them for more than 1000 yuan.

Later, this seemingly random news story even made it to the top of the trending topics list on Reddit in the United States, and foreigners were shocked by this "generous" act.

Besides seriously discussing how many onions a ton of onions should actually be,

and also……

I just can't stop drooling.

Whether to make onion rings or onion soup for 1 ton of onions is a real headache.

……

During the reign of Emperor Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty.

In his book "Miscellaneous Notes on Lingnan," Guangzhou official Wu Zhenfang recorded that onions were introduced from Macau for trial cultivation at that time.

Although onions spread from West Asia to Egypt and Central Asia around 2000 BC, they entered China much later.

However, it wasn't until the 20th century that it was truly popularized in China.

So be it.

That's probably the reason.

Onions are a common food in China.

However, its status as an ingredient is incomparable to that of chili peppers, let alone tomatoes or potatoes.

Only in the kitchens and dining tables of other countries does the onion possess a completely different status and influence!
