Reborn in Japan as a Chef God

Chapter 498: Chapter 497: The Upcoming Confrontation

Sapporo, the first round of the AB district elimination competition, came to an end on the same day.

31 teams competed in the first round, but ultimately only 16 teams remained, with eight teams each in groups A and B.

Moreover, the competition in the first round also gave the media and the public a general understanding of the strength of each participating team.

Recently, both online and offline in Neon, the teams from the ancient country had been the most talked-about subject.

In district A, there were teams organized by Dragon Town Restaurant and the Hong Kong Alliance.

There’s no need to say much about Dragon Town Restaurant; it has always been the leader of the Shanghai Chef Association. The Tang Family is, without a doubt, the dominator of the Shanghai area in the Bright Chinese Cuisine World; even the Heavenly King could hardly establish his influence in the Shanghai region.

What the Tang Family relied on most was their legendary and perfectly preserved culinary utensil, the “Dragon Pot.” It had seemed the Tang Family was on the decline, about to be replaced, having faced a period of lack in talented successors for the past two or three decades. However, a new generation suddenly emerged, recognized by the legendary utensil, and from then on, the Heavenly King simply stopped meddling in the affairs of the Shanghai Chef Association, effectively granting autonomy to the Tang Family.

There’s not much to say about the Hong Kong Alliance Team; it’s a complicated team, but its leader, Chef Lin, is definitely known to Xia Yu. He is none other than Guan Xingchen, who once left him the words “If your heart is in the light, then you are the light.”

And then,

there was Yangquan Restaurant, which was crushed and eliminated by the “Research Faction.”

Yangquan Restaurant was out early, not even making it to the top eight, which was considered a huge upset. However, once the contestant information was exposed online, the public quickly understood; it was a team set up for training exercises, without their strongest members.

Moving on to district B.

Two teams with an air of mystery swept through the competition, and their momentum was no weaker than those of the “Research Faction” or the “Orlando Faction.”
