“Ladies and gentlemen!”
The impassioned voice of the host echoed across the Bai Lu Mountain Arena, capable of accommodating fifty thousand people, amplified by the sound system.
“Welcome to the youth training competition of this Bai Lu Mountain City!”
“Youth is the future, like a rising sunrise.”
“Thus, young Spirit Chefs need a new stage to show off their flair.”
“Born under such intentions, the Youth Training Competition for Spirit Chefs under twenty-five will always uphold its original aspiration.”
“At this Youth Training Tournament, the number of participants surged to an unprecedented sixty-seven! A larger number of participants signifies a higher difficulty for advancement in the competition. However, 1 believe that the contestants wouldn’t be intimidated because of this!”
“Let’s welcome these sixty-seven participants onto the stage with our warmest applause!”
Amidst the thunderous applause and enthusiastic cheering, the sixty-seven contestants walked out from the player passage and stepped onto the competition venue.
“Wow! There are so many people!” Qi Xiaoyu, standing among the contestants, couldn’t help but whisper in amazement as she looked at the densely packed audience seats.
Standing in the middle of the field with all eyes on her was a completely different experience from sitting in the audience and watching the competition.
“Don’t be nervous, just do your best.”
The voice of Du Weiwei, who was standing next to her, also lowered.
“Okay!” Qi Xiaoyu nodded seriously.
This was her first time on such a big stage. Of course, she had to show her best side and not lose face in front of thousands of people!
“The first game for Training Master!” Zhao Chen’s eyes flickered with excitement from the other side, “Yangyang, we must give our best shot and show our style!”
“Blub blub!”
Yangyang seriously nodded, his eyes flickering with the same fighting spirit as his Spirit Chef.
“Gururu-”
So many people are watching-
Looking at the many eyes on him, Dan Bao suddenly felt nervous.
In cooking competitions, he only needed to assist Qin Lang in completing the cooking as Qin instructed. However, in training competitions, his performance was the key to victory.
The two feelings were different.
“Don’t worry, just follow my command as in our previous Spirit Battles.” Qin Lang rubbed Dan Bao’s head and his face lit up with determination as he watched the densely packed audience.
“Cluck!”
Keep it up!
Spicy seriously cheered for Dan Bao.
“Cluck cluck chuck-”
It’s not for you! It’s because if you win this round, I’ll have a chance to play later!
After glancing at the gradually reddening bubble light cluster above Spicy’s head, Dan Bao nodded.
I get it, 1 get it-
“Let’s welcome Ms. Xu Qingmo, the President of Bai Lu Mountain City Spirit Chef Association, with the same warm applause to deliver the opening speech!”
Upon hearing the host’s words, a look of surprise flitted across Qin Lang’s face.
According to the usual practice, the president of a city’s Spirit Chef Association is a second-level Spirit Executor, and the vice president is a Second-Level Food
Recommender.
Are both the president and vice president of Bai Lu Mountain City females?
This is unusual.
He couldn’t help but direct his gaze towards the chairman’s stage.
On the chairman’s stage, a middle-aged woman with neat short hair switched on the microphone and began to speak slowly in a steady voice.
“I’m delighted to see so many young Spirit Chefs participate in this Bai Lu Mountain City Youth Training Tournament.”
“I hope all of you can maintain your best condition and leave the most wonderful stage in Bai Lu Mountain City.”
“And I, along with thirteen other first-level Spirit Executors of Bai Lu Mountain City, will do our utmost to safeguard the order of this competition!”
As she spoke the last sentence, Xu Qingmo’s voice seemed a bit heavier, her calm eyes like still water swept over the audience, seemingly carrying a hint of deterrence.
“Thank you, Ms. Xu Qingmo, for your speech. Next, we’ll explain today’s competition.”
As Xu Qingmo ended her speech and switched off the microphone, the host’s voice rang out again.
“What we’ll have today is the first round – the Selection Battle – of this Youth Training Tournament!”
“We’ve carefully selected ten Spirit Chefs of comparable combat power from within the Association to serve as the Selection Battle Standards for this Selection Battle.”
As the host’s voice died down, the ten Spirit Chefs sitting nearby appeared on the big screen hanging above the field.
With the audience’s applause and cheering, the ten Spirit Chefs stood up one after another and waved to the audience in acknowledgment.
The host’s explanation continued.
“Each contestant must choose two of these ten Selection Battle Standards as their opponents, with both sides only allowed to each send out one Food Spirit.”
“The Food Spirit sent out by the Selection Battle Standard is fixed, while the contestants are free to choose any of their Food Spirits.”
“The association selected twenty referees with extensive experience in adjudicating Spirit Battles who will score each Spirit Battle.”
As the host reached this point, the image on the big screen quickly switched to the twenty referees waving from their seats on the other side.
“Deducing the highest and lowest score, the average score from the referees becomes the contestant’s score after the battle with the Selection Battle Standard.”
“Each contestant will battle with two Selection Battle Standards and hence, will have two scores. The highest score out of these two will be the contestant’s final score.”
“The final scores of the sixty-seven contestants will be ranked, and the top four contestants will advance to the next round!”
With the host announcing the rules, the atmosphere at the site instantly became tense.
At previous Youth Training Tournaments, there were only around a dozen participants.
Four out of a dozen advancing is a normal elimination rate.
However, this Selection Battle is a bit special with several times more contestants than before.
Despite this, the competition format won’t change because of it.
Only four will advance out of sixty-seven.
The terrifying elimination rate stirred up intense anticipation in the spectators’ eyes. At the same time, fierce determination ignited in the eyes of the contestants on the stage.
“To avoid continuous fights from affecting the Food Spirits’ optimal state, both the contestants and Selection Battle Standards will not have back-to-back battles.”
“Before the start of the competition, the sixty-seven contestants have already submitted their choices of two Selection Battle Standards based on which we’ve finalised the appearance schedule for the Selection Battle.”
“Now, please watch the big screen!”
As the host’s echoing words ended, the corresponding appearance schedule was displayed on the big screen.
“As a special situation where there are a large number of contestants, we’ve accordingly adjusted the schedule.”
“The Selection Battle, which normally takes one day, will be spread over two days.”
“Twenty rounds will be conducted in the morning each day, with forty-seven taking place in the afternoon.”
“The two Spirit Battles for the same contestants won’t be scheduled on the same day.”
After hearing the host explain the schedule, the audience burst into cheering when they saw the densely packed appearance schedule on the big screen, which was several times larger than before.
Buying a ticket for the Selection Battle of this Youth Training Tournament is a real bargain.
