Chapter 283 The Flashy Phoenix

The kitchen knife in Gao Fei's hand flew flexibly, and no matter what kind of food it was, it could be easily cut into pieces.

Erina Nakiri is not bad either. Although she doesn't have any cheating system, she has practiced hard over the years and her sword skills are absolutely top-notch.

Gao Fei looked at the beautiful girl opposite him with a faint smile on his face. He inherited a lot of cooking skills from the Chinese Chef Boy. Although they were not complete, they were enough to have a place in the vast food industry.

Xiao Zhen has now turned on his invisibility and suppressed his aura to the lowest level. Although Gao Fei and he can barely be considered fellow countrymen, after all, they are both Chinese, but he really can't let this kid win today's match.

Gao Fei was sweating profusely, demonstrating his full skill. However, the ingredients he chose were very ordinary, unlike Erina Nakiri on the opposite side, who chose all high-end ingredients.

Gao Fei removed the heads and tails of the bean sprouts one by one, and the whole process looked smooth and flowing.

Erina Nakiri also had time to take a look and was immediately a little disdainful. She had used many kinds of precious ingredients, while the other party only used radish and bean sprouts as the main ingredients. It seemed like they had a sure win.

Xiao Zhen looked at the busy Gao Fei and had no idea what dish this kid was going to cook, but this did not stop him from doing something.

Since no one could see him, Xiao Zhen just stood in front of Gao Fei's kitchen counter with a swagger.

A sinister smile appeared on Xiao Zhen's lips. He added some ingredients to Gao Fei's food. If the old man Nakiri Senzaemon ate this dish, he would probably vomit out the overnight rice.

More than ten minutes later, two plates of exquisite dishes were placed on the referee's table.

Nakiri Senzaemon first looked at his beloved granddaughter's plate, which was filled with exquisite sushi and several kinds of sauces were prepared on the side.

"Erina really understands me, but even if you are my granddaughter, grandpa will never let you off!"

Nakiri Erina said confidently: "Grandpa, don't underestimate me, I am the winner this time!"

Nakiri Senzaemon just smiled, then picked up a piece of sushi, lightly put a little sauce on it, and put it into his mouth and kept chewing.

"Very good, Erina, it seems your cooking skills have improved a lot!"

"Of course, I'm your granddaughter!" said Erina Nakiri happily.

The old man ate all the sushi in one breath. After finishing, he couldn't help licking the corner of his mouth, as if he was savoring the taste of the sushi.

Gao Fei laughed and said, "Mr. Marshal, is it my turn to cook?"

Nakiri Senzaemon smiled faintly and said, "Yes, let me taste your cooking today, young man!"

Looking carefully at the phoenix on the plate, Nakiri Senzaemon nodded with satisfaction.

“Although it’s made with cheap ingredients, it looks very exquisite. I wonder how it tastes?”

Gao Fei explained: "This is called Phoenix Crystal. It is a dish that I have recently come up with. Please try it, Commander!"

Nakiri Senzaemon picked up a few bean sprouts and found that the heads and tails had been removed, and there seemed to be something stuffed inside. The fragrance floating in the air smelled very appetizing.

"Then I won't be polite!"

After putting the bean sprouts into his mouth and chewing them carefully, Nakiri Senzaemon's eyelids twitched, but he still continued to eat a few more bites.

Gao Fei was very confident. Looking at Erina Nakiri not far away, he couldn't help but teased:

"Miss Erina, you must wear a nice dress tonight at the Johto Cinema, otherwise I will be disappointed!"

Nakiri Erina snorted, "The results of the game haven't come out yet. Isn't it too early to brag now?"

Xiao Zhen, who had already mixed back into the audience, almost burst out laughing when he saw Nakiri Senzaemon, who seemed to be experiencing a life-and-death battle.

The ingredient Xiao Zhen added was actually a herb called suffering grass. This herb had no other characteristics except that it was extremely unpalatable and could make people question their lives.

This kind of herb has no smell at all. Occasionally, if some herbivorous monsters accidentally eat it, they will spit it out immediately.

It is said that in some villages in the Gama Empire, anyone who can eat a whole head of the grass of suffering will be regarded as a warrior.

Tears suddenly flowed from Nakiri Senzaemon's old eyes and the corners of his mouth moved, but he said nothing.

Gao Fei also noticed it, and he felt very puzzled, this was not a sad meal, why did the old man have such an expression.

Nakiri Senzaemon suddenly asked Gao Fei: "Young man, how did you make this dish? Why does it taste so... so bad!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Fei felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He said in disbelief:

"Mr. Marshal, you are not playing a joke on me, this is not funny at all!"

Nakiri Senzaemon said with an unpleasant expression: "I never talk nonsense about cooking. If you don't believe me, you can taste it yourself!"

Of course Gao Fei wouldn't believe it, and he didn't care about so many people outside the field. He just grabbed a handful of bean sprouts from the Phoenix and stuffed them into his mouth.

After just a few bites, Gao Fei's taste buds reacted. He felt that he had never eaten anything so disgusting in his life. It was bitter, astringent, sour and salty. Even some dark cuisine would not be able to compare to this dish.

"Pooh! How...how could this be? This is impossible. How could my Phoenix Crystal taste so bad? There must be something wrong!"

Gao Fei collapsed to the ground, covering his mouth with his hands, his eyes full of disbelief.

Some waiters standing nearby also showed nervous expressions when they saw their boss become like this.

"You're not that great either. I'm the winner today!" said Erina Nakiri with a mocking look on her face.

Gao Fei clenched his fists and said unwillingly: "I haven't lost yet, something must have gone wrong. Do you have the guts to compete with me again?"

Nakiri Erina laughed and said, "Is this the roar of a loser?"

Gao Fei slammed his fist down on the table and said, "I am China's number one talented chef. Today was definitely a mistake. There must be something wrong with the ingredients!"

Erina Nakiri laughed so hard that her stomach hurt. She said disdainfully, "There's something wrong with the ingredients. Are you kidding us? These ingredients were provided by your restaurant."

Gao Fei reluctantly grabbed a raw radish and took a big bite. However, he found that there was nothing wrong with the radish, so he grabbed a handful of fresh bean sprouts and put a few of them into his mouth.

Xiao Zhen, who was hiding in the crowd, was almost laughing. He was not a fool, and it was impossible for him to put some medicine in all the ingredients.

The drugs Xiao Zhen had put in were almost all in the ingredients selected by Gao Fei. Unless he tasted the leftovers that he had cut into the trash can, he would not find any clues.

"No! This is impossible. There is nothing wrong with the ingredients. Could it be that there is something wrong with my technique? I clearly made it according to the memory instilled by the system!"

Just when Gao Fei was doubting his life, the island audience around him began to whisper.

"This is China's number one talented chef. He really deserves the title!"

"China used to be a country of great food, but now it seems that it is no longer the case. Even a loser like this can be called a genius. From now on, the world will be dominated by our island country's food!"

"Yoshi! Everyone is right. In the past, everyone in the world talked about Chinese food and Western food, but no one talked about Japanese food. I think we have to change that in the future. Chinese food is out of date!"

Xiao Zhen thought something was wrong. He just wanted to attack Gao Fei, but he didn't expect that these Japanese devils around him would actually attack Chinese food.

"It seems like I have to do something, otherwise the reputation of Chinese cuisine will be ruined by Gao Fei!"

Xiao Zhen completely put the blame on Gao Fei and did not mention at all that he had drugged her.
