Chapter 1288: The One Who Ignited: Ti Qie Xianzuowei

Tony Isn't the Richest: "Ordinary food—in other words—you must eat food that isn't ordinary, to bring noticeable change to yourself."

Su Xiao Xiao: "Something like that, I suppose."

Tony Isn't the Richest: "Then may I ask the president, what exactly is non-ordinary food?"

Su Xiao Xiao: "......"

Su Han fell into deep thought; no member from the Food Hunter world had yet joined the Daogong Society.

So he had no way to give a vivid example.

After much deliberation, Su Han finally managed to offer an explanation.

Su Xiao Xiao: "Non-ordinary food means... those beings whose strength itself is already immense."

Fourth Hokage: "...... In our Hokage world, the strongest beings would probably be the various summoning animals."

Bofengshui Men thought of his own summoning toad, then of all the strange, bizarre summoning beasts, and involuntarily shivered, a bitter smile appearing on his face.

Fourth Hokage 310: "Never mind! In our Hokage world, there are barely any summoning beasts at my level."

"Though there are plenty of summoning beasts one level weaker... but if we truly ate them as staple food, we'd wipe them out in no time."

Fourth Hokage 310: "I'm afraid that by then, my companions at Myōjō Mountain would despise me."

Bofengshui Men and the toads of Myōjō Mountain shared deep bonds.

After thinking it over, he decided not to do something so emotionally damaging.

After all, deliberately hunting summoning beasts for food—if word got out, it would easily create rifts with the toads.

Luo Hao Sect Leader: "......"

Luo Cuilian's eyebrows twitched twice; at least Bofengshui Men still had the possibility of eating such summoning beasts.

As for the God Slayer world... Luo Cuilian thought long and hard, and the only thing she found that qualified was... various divine beasts.

But... those... divine beasts simply can't be eaten, she thought, rubbing her temples in frustration.

Su Xiao Xiao: "Actually, that's not a problem! If you truly want to eat, you might consider the giant beasts from the Long Zhu world, or the colossal Sea Kings from One Piece."

"Their ranks are very high, and their meat is abundant."

Tony Isn't the Richest: "That does seem right... President, you've successfully spotted the blind spot."

Luo Hao Sect Leader: "Gigantic Sea Kings? Or the beasts from the Long Zhu world? Indeed, worth serious consideration."

Ti Qie Hui Li: "Um... are we all leaving now?"

Su Xiao Xiao: "The mission is done. What else would we stay for?"

Ti Qie Hui Li: "Could everyone please stay a little longer?... Right now, so many outstanding chefs are gathered here! If you wish, you could let these... outstanding chefs cook for you."

Ti Qie Hui Li: "Moreover, this would benefit us too... If the first-ever Global Gourmet Gathering succeeds, and with you powerful figures presiding over it, the influence of this gathering would rise effortlessly."

Originally, Ti Qie Hui Li hadn't thought of this.

But now, beside her stood Ti Qie Xianzuowei.

Ti Qie Xianzuowei naturally recognized them.

He had seen Su Han and the others display terrifying power.

His heart had thudded violently.

He had previously thought Yamamoto Ichirō and Li Xunfei were already strong and terrifying enough, but he never imagined Su Han and the others were even stronger.

Compared to Su Han and the others, Li Xunfei and the rest meant nothing.

Especially Su Han—in a single gesture, he set up barriers; with a clenched fist, he redirected that... utterly terrifying attack, finally destroying a spaceship... such terrifying power could never be overstated.

If such terrifying figures could truly be invited to preside over the Gourmet Gathering, the results would far surpass what Yamamoto Ichirō and the others achieved with this gathering.

Far more extraordinary.

Su Xiao Xiao: "......"

Tony Isn't the Richest: "President, how about we stay here a little longer...?"

Tony Isn't the Richest: "Think about it—we now have Gourmet Cells inside us, and we need a grand feast to trigger their initial awakening, to see just how much we're truly strengthened."

Tony Isn't the Richest: "And here, we have the absolute top chefs from the Shokugeki no Soma world... after we return, we'll never find such an opportunity again."

Su Xiao Xiao: "......"

Su Han thought it over and realized he couldn't refute Tony's words.

Fourth Hokage: "...... After careful consideration, Mr. Tony speaks very reasonably."

Luo Hao Sect Leader: "I leave it entirely to Elder Brother's judgment."

Su Xiao Xiao: "In that case, let's stay here for a little while."

Su Han ultimately made this decision; after all, the gourmet dishes from the Shokugeki no Soma world held great appeal for him.

Though Ram makes Shokugeki no Soma dishes every day, no matter how gifted she is, her cooking still falls far short of that of top chefs.

Ti Qie Hui Li: "That's perfect! I'll go prepare immediately."

Hearing Su Han's agreement, Ti Qie Hui Li finally exhaled in relief, opened her eyes, and a joyful smile appeared on her face.

"Hui Li, what do those great ones think?"

Ti Qie Xianzuowei stared at Ti Qie Hui Li's face, his voice tinged with nervousness.

He feared hearing from her that Su Han had refused.

"They agreed!"

Ti Qie Hui Li nodded seriously.

"Then that's perfect!"

Ti Qie Xianzuowei finally exhaled in relief, a smile spreading across his face.

Ti Qie Xianzuowei tied a white strip around his head, his gaze sharp, his entire being ignited.

He stepped before the open-air kitchen and began cooking once more.

Many other chefs stared at each other, bewildered by what Shi Zuo Wei Men was doing.

Some looked at Shi Zuo Wei Men with admiration; the battle had just ended, yet here he was, immediately resuming cooking—only someone with an incredibly strong mind could do such a thing, which is why he deserved to be called the Food Demon King who ruled over Japan.

Others glanced at him with strange expressions, shook their heads, wondering if Shi Zuo Wei Men had cooked himself into madness—right now, Su Han and the others were clearly more important; only someone extraordinarily talented would focus solely on cooking while ignoring everything else.

Su Han stood at the center of the venue, the power of the Reality Gem spreading outward.

The world he had twisted changed once again.

The dilapidated grand courtyard of the Engetsu Academy restored itself instantly to its original state.

The raised platform reappeared.

Su Han sat at the very center, with Luo Cuilian seated to his left.

As for Tony Stark and Bofengshui Sect, they sat to Su Han's right.
