All sorts of emotions arose in Hoshino Sora's heart. Competing against powerful chefs, battling in culinary skill, and achieving victory also brought him immense benefits.

As the door slowly opened, a familiar notification sound echoed in Hoshino Sora's mind, bringing a look of ecstasy to his face. Should he say it was worthy of being a world-class competition?!
These rewards are truly so generous they make one's heart race!
Win! No matter what, he must win!
His eyes burning, he looked at each opponent before him, as if seeing one large piece of fatty meat after another. As long as he defeated one of them, he could obtain resources he couldn't even imagine!
Again, once Gourmet Manor expands again and more wasteland is reclaimed, the required labor will greatly increase! These slaves will become crucial!
"Next, the trial of the third door begins."
Behind the third door, besides the contestants, stood three WGO executives: the suited gentleman Terun Shang, the old nun Machurite, and the blonde girl Aithor.
They were the judges for the third door.
"Wait!"
A loud shout came from the sky, drawing everyone's attention.
"An image from Tenshukaku.
Rantobi, have you heard anything?"
"Nothing at all."
Seeing Terun Shang look at her, Rantobi quickly waved her hand, her eyes filled with an innocent blankness. Hearing her reply, Terun Shang redirected his gaze to the screen in the sky.
"Is there something, Special Executive?"
Terun Shang asked with a strong voice.
"I'd like to take this opportunity to announce the additional reward for this year's BLUE Champion."
"Additional reward?"
"Isn't it just about winning a prize?"
Soma Yukihira, beside Hoshino Sora, asked in confusion. He had indeed come to participate without knowing anything.
"This year's BLUE Champion will receive the legendary culinary tool, the Nine Revolutions Dragon Pot. The Nine Revolutions Dragon Pot can accelerate the fermentation of ingredients. Ingredients that normally require a month to ferment will only need an hour when placed in this pot. This is also a treasure that the Chinese culinary world has sought for many years.
In addition, the winner of this BLUE will also become my exclusive chef."
Upon hearing this, Hoshino Sora finally understood why so many Chinese chefs had come. Good heavens, a legendary culinary tool! No wonder those guys were so eager.
He recalled the Oriental Academy and the Dark Cuisine World rushing to Far Moon a while ago; back then, they had only received news and a large group had come. Now that there was clear information, they naturally dispatched masters to obtain this legendary culinary tool.
No wonder participating in BLUE could yield such generous rewards. With such a giant dragon, who had been entrenched in the East for thousands of years, entering the arena, these rewards seemed somewhat meager in comparison.
"The Special Executive's designated chef?!"
Hearing the voice on the screen, Rantobi's face flushed as she excitedly repeated the phrase.
"Is it very impressive?"
Soma Yukihira asked curiously from behind him.
"Of course it's impressive! Who else but the Special Executive is such a super important figure in the culinary world!"
Hearing Soma Yukihira's questioning tone, Rantobi immediately replied with a sharp and proud voice.
"You can attend WGO's regular gatherings, showcase your skills, and earn a huge salary. It's a very attractive position, young man."
"Really, or not?"
Hearing Terun Shang's words, Soma Yukihira was still a bit disbelieving, though his voice had noticeably softened.
"However, as a trade-off, in the trial of this door, some unconventional selection methods will be used. The Noir members over there, please demonstrate your strength here."
A deathly silence fell over the venue after the voice from the screen, and it was a long time before anyone spoke.
"What does this mean?"
"Why bring in Midnight Chefs?"
"Isn't BLUE part of the front world?"
People at the scene questioned. BLUE's selection has always been in the front world; this is the first time it has included the back world.
"The purpose of BLUE is to select the leader of young chefs, but this time, the huge investment is also for a personal goal of mine."
"A personal goal?"
"To find a chef who can create dishes never before seen on Earth.
I have tasted all the delicacies in the world and reached the end. However, the 'front world' has never produced anyone who can meet my expectations, so this time, for BLUE, I am only pinning my hopes on the 'back world'."
There was another silence, but soon someone spoke again.
"I've always been on the front lines of gourmet food. How good can the 'back world' be?"
"It just so happens that I can't stand those guys from the 'front world' either."
A tall woman with ice-blue long hair, wearing a queen's hat that only had the shape but not the corresponding temperament, spoke with a chainsaw in hand, her face full of arrogance.
"The beef tenderloin has arrived."
At the same time, a plump woman wearing a hat and work clothes appeared on the scene, along with a piece of beef tenderloin.
"Do you want me to turn that meat into a delicacy? No problem!"
Seeing the suddenly appearing beef tenderloin, the blue-haired woman quickly stepped forward, cut off a piece of the beef tenderloin with a dining knife, and then fried it in oil, staring intently at the meat in front of her, her mental power highly concentrated at this moment.
"What's going on? Isn't that extremely ordinary cooking?"
"With that level, can she be above us?!"
Looking at the blue-haired woman's extremely ordinary cooking, the front world chefs at the scene all looked disdainful. Anyone at the scene could do this level.
