The biggest reason is definitely her own.
The reason she was on the verge of elimination was because her personality was too easily agitated and nervous, and she was prone to losing her composure.
People like this are often easily eliminated, whether in school or in the real world.
However, the educational model at Totsuki Academy did not give her the firm will to overcome difficulties and regain her self-confidence.
With Megumi Tadokoro, it would be easy for any lecturer to change her if they had paid even a little attention to her personal psychological issues.
In the end, it was Lin Xu who did it!
The concept of "ultimate cuisine" can be applied to "ultimate education."
If the Nakiri family, or rather some of the instructors, have already reached the pinnacle of culinary skill, then the incident involving Megumi Tadokoro is like Erina tasting sumo cuisine and falling just short of her goal.
Ultimately, Totsuki has not yet reached its full potential in certain areas!
……
Looking at Lin Xu, who was being watched with admiration by everyone.
Mito Ikumi was taken aback, but he remained calm and easygoing, his warm smile as bright as sunshine.
perhaps.
She can understand now.
Why did Lin Xu's appearance just now cause such a sensation?
With just a simple beef bowl, he was able to shatter her years of understanding of meat dishes. This handsome lecturer, Mr. Lin, must be a "hero" in the eyes of all the students, right?
Thinking this, Mito Ikumi, her heart fluttering slightly, couldn't help but look up and meet Lin Xu's eyes.
For a moment, Mito felt a jolt, as if she had been electrocuted.
She blushed involuntarily, but just as she was about to turn her head away, Lin Xu scolded her, "Your problem is that you focus too much on the quality of the meat and often neglect the role of other ingredients!"
"If you can be bold enough to try and step outside the scope of understanding meat as an ingredient, it might have even more surprising effects."
"Yes, Instructor Lin... I understand!"
Mito nodded upon hearing this.
A student who doesn't aspire to become a strong person is not a good Totsuki student. Lin Xu's admonitions are always so powerful and insightful.
Mito Ikumi was no exception; she admitted that she had fallen for him.
Through the first lesson.
She also realized that her strength was still too weak.
They are far from being able to contend with the other powerful individuals within the academy!
……
Time slowly passed.
As the bell rang, Lin Xu left the cooking classroom.
The afternoon sunlight, like a thin, warm golden veil, gently spilled over every corner of Totsuki Academy.
Inside the academy.
Those tall sycamore trees.
At this moment, as if under the magic of the sunlight, the leaves became even greener and more translucent.
In this academy, hailed as the holy temple of Japanese cuisine, a dimly lit conference room exudes an unusually tranquil atmosphere, yet subtly carries a sense of oppression.
If a student were standing here, they would surely be astonished by the sight before them.
A small meeting room.
It has surprisingly gathered many world-class culinary instructors.
Meanwhile, there is also the Totsuki Culinary Master, known as the "Food Demon King," Lin Xu, one of the world's top 50 chefs, Dojima Gin, the strongest graduate in history, and several famous restaurant star chefs in the culinary world...
Most people here can profoundly influence the development of the culinary world simply by sneezing.
And now.
But they all gathered together.
Such a magnificent sight is truly astonishing.
……
"Cough cough!"
The commander-in-chief's gaze swept over the highly respected chefs below.
After confirming that everyone had arrived, he cleared his throat and prepared to get down to business at this important meeting.
"time flies."
"The start of the school year at Totsuki Academy has finally arrived again."
"And the annual residential training program is about to begin its countdown."
Despite his advanced age, the commander-in-chief's weathered voice still sounded deep and powerful, echoing in the quiet conference room.
Afterwards, his gaze became deep as he began to recall the bits and pieces of the past years.
"I forgot to introduce you."
"The young man sitting next to me is named Lin Xu, and he comes from the Celestial Empire."
"Two months ago, he was hired as a lecturer at our Totsuki Academy. He is also the youngest second-class... no, first-class executive officer in the history of the WGO Gourmet Organization!"
Upon hearing this, Dojima Gin, Mizuhara Fuyumi, Shinomiya Kojiro, and others present all turned their gazes toward Lin Xu, their expressions varying.
There was surprise.
There are doubts.
There was observation and scrutiny.
Some frowned, looking somewhat skeptical.
Only Inui Hinako, who had met Lin Xu once, remained relatively calm.
However, she was also a little shocked, because she remembered that Lin Xu was already a second-class executive officer last time, but after only a few days, he was successfully promoted to a first-class executive officer!
……
Neon people.
They value emotional connections and communication among colleagues.
This can be seen in the "seating etiquette".
Whether in meetings, parties, or traveling, Japanese people pay great attention to where they sit. They generally decide the priority of seating based on the principle of job title > years of service > age.
Those with higher rank sit in the "upper seats," which are farther from the entrance; those with slightly lower rank sit in the "lower seats," which are closer to the entrance.
If the distances from the entrance are all roughly the same, then the seat at the very top is taken as the reference, with the seat to the left being the most important and the seat to the right being the least important.
Therefore, the person who can sit next to the commander-in-chief must be someone of extraordinary status.
What Dojima Gin and the others did not expect was that this young man named Lin Xu was actually the first executive officer of the WGO Gourmet Organization!
……
"You are so young and promising!"
"When I was around 20 years old, I was still feeling helpless and confused about my career development."
Dojima Gin couldn't help but sigh.
Back then, he graduated with the highest score in Totsuki's history, but he could only stay in Japan and work at a resort under Totsuki.
After all these years, I have put in more effort than most people can imagine.
In the end, he barely managed to get the position of general manager of the culinary department!
The results of it?
Look at this young man in front of you.
The position of WGO's executive officer alone is the ultimate goal of his life that is far beyond his reach!
Sigh, you really can't compare people, or you'll get so angry you'll die sooner or later.
……
"When I was running the SHINO'S restaurant in France."
"I have indeed heard that a legendary executive who can conquer the God Tongue has come to the WGO Food Organization headquarters."
Kojiro Shinomiya's sharp eyes scrutinized Lin Xu relentlessly, as if trying to glean some useful information. But this visual observation was clearly futile!
"hehe."
"During the upcoming residential training program."
"Everyone has had the opportunity to get along with Lin Xu, so I hope that everyone can get along well and unite with each other."
The commander stroked his beard and said with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, his expression turned unusually serious, and he slowly said, "The residential study program is the first major year-end activity that freshmen will face after enrollment."
"For them, this could even change the trajectory of their lives in the future!"
"On this matter."
"I hope that none of you will be careless in the slightest."
"Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, we will definitely make this accommodation and training program a success."
The crowd responded in unison, their voices clear and loud.
……
Accommodation-based training.
This is one of the most thrilling and important plot points in Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma.
For first-year students in the higher education department, this residential training program is undoubtedly the first major test they face after enrollment, and also a brutal selection process that eliminates students with poorer qualifications on a large scale.
Therefore, the content of the residential training is extremely demanding, like an insurmountable peak standing in front of the new students.
It not only has extremely high requirements for the quality of the dishes, but every dish must also meet the standards of the graduates. The discerning palates and strict judgments make countless freshmen tremble with fear.
Furthermore, the quantity must meet the required standard, and the required number of dishes must be prepared within the specified time.
This poses a significant challenge to the freshmen's physical strength and adaptability.
……
Of course.
This residential training program, while full of challenges, also contains boundless opportunities.
After all, it is the first reshuffle that first-year students in the higher education department face after entering the school.
Those with poor abilities will naturally be ruthlessly eliminated, disappearing into the long history of Totsuki Academy like sand being washed away by the waves.
But on the contrary.
Those highly capable individuals.
On the contrary, they were able to showcase their talents in this event, providing an excellent opportunity for their future success.
In short, when the notices for the residential training program began to be delivered to each new student at Totsuki Academy, the entire academy was instantly thrown into an unprecedented uproar.
Students.
Some were extremely excited.
Eager to prove myself in this event.
Some were worried, fearing they couldn't handle such immense pressure!
