Chapter 435 - 434: Sensation

Chapter 435: Chapter 434: Sensation

Compared to the start of the preliminary round, the attention instantly surged by 11 points.

Moreover, it is believed that over the next two weeks, this session of "Autumn Selection" will attract even more attention.

The reason is simple.

A group of students, during the preliminary phase, competed to use Fantasy Spices in their dishes, causing a sensation.

"Turn on the TV!"

Tiqie Xianzuowen made a decision, effectively shutting up Kikuchi Musashi’s rebuke.

Dojima Yin left his seat, found the remote control, and turned on the large TV in the conference room.

Unexpectedly, the first TV program was Chiyoda Aichi leading the "Today’s Cuisine" team, interviewing five judges at Group A venue.

Chiben Natsuka was being interviewed.

"Yes, the Jade Generation of Far Moon is indeed very interesting."

"I have encountered some quite impressive dishes."

"If you talk about shock, it still has to be the top students’ use of a mysterious spice!"

At this point, Chiben Natsuka looked directly at the camera and affirmed, "At Group A venue, at least 8 students have successfully ’tamed’ that mysterious spice in their dishes. And I am 100% certain that it is a Fantasy..."

"Fantasy?"

"Fantasy spices?"

Chiyoda Aichi was astonished.

"What, don’t you trust my judgment?" Chiben Natsuka was displeased.

"No!"

Chiyoda Aichi quickly waved her hand. The judgment of the "Curry Queen" was highly credible, which made it all the more astonishing.

She turned to face the camera, with an excited expression:

"This is the live interview. Did everyone hear that?"

The sound from the TV spread throughout the conference room.

Silence.

Not just the opposition led by Kikuchi Musashi, but also on Dojima Yin’s side, all the magnates were visibly shocked.

"Beep!"

Changed channel.

At Group B venue, a crowd of reporters surrounded Niho Fuyuka and Tiqie Ailisha, who had not yet left the scene. These two were tied for first place.

Tiqie Ailisha was holding a small glass bottle.

Inside the bottle was a small, unused segment of Fantasy Moon Tangerine Leaf.

A reporter pushed forward and asked, "Miss Tiqie, is this a spice? It seems that such Fantasy Spices have a significant impact on your scores, could you elaborate..."

"This is Instructor Xia’s Fantasy Curry Leaf, but I ’tamed’ it with my own dish!"

Seeing this, Xia Yu no longer cared; he pulled out his phone and browsed the internet with great interest.

The Twitter world was in an uproar.

Snippets of videos were being widely shared.

Neon Curry Association expressed interest.

Neon Spices Association and suppliers expressed interest.

Neon Horticultural Agricultural Association, along with various research institutions, all participated in a major discussion.

A massive wave of public discourse quietly arose around the Far Moon Autumn Selection.

...

The meeting was adjourned.

Kikuchi Musashi, along with three magnates, left the Tiqie Residence feeling dejected.

They reached a secluded hotel for their gathering.

"We couldn’t even dismiss that kid this time!"

"His prestige within Far Moon School grows stronger every day; keeping him around is a menace. This thorn must be removed, or it will affect our upcoming plans!"

The magnates looked troubled.

According to the original plan, they were supposed to win over more than half of the Ten Master Mechanism and take control of the student management organization.

However, due to Xia Yu’s presence, the tycoons were uncertain about the process of winning them over.

Not to mention the others.

Si Yingshi, who ranked first, Kobayakawa Ryodan, who was second, Ichise Hui, who was seventh, Koga Shoji, who was eighth, and Tiqie Helinai, who was tenth—most likely stood by Xia Yu’s side. With at least five of the Ten Master Mechanism backing Xia Yu... how could they still play the game?

"Lord Kikuchi..."

The tycoons could only turn to the grim-faced Kikuchi Musashi.

Suddenly, someone accidentally pressed the remote control, and the hotel room’s television turned on.

Shinohara Shigetaro from the Neon Department of IGO was being interviewed in his office:

"I have personally verified with Instructor Xia and Lady Indira that those students are indeed using a fantasy spice known as ’Indra Moon Orange.’ Lady Indira was shocked at the sudden appearance of so much fresh Fantasy Moon Orange..."

"Everyone should pay more attention to this year’s autumn selection."

"If the preliminaries are this exciting, what will the students show us in the top-eight knockout matches? Honestly, I’d also like to go to the scene and see for myself!"

The tycoons exchanged looks.

"What should we do? His influence is already growing!" a tycoon said gravely, "If he makes this autumn selection a sensation, then his position as an instructor will be secured!"

"All talk, no action!"

Kikuchi Musashi said coldly: "He’s too hasty. By revealing the fantasy spices in the preliminaries and letting the contestants use Fantasy Ingredients to prepare dishes, what will he do in the top-eight knockout? Continue to use Fantasy Ingredients? Hah, if it’s not the most mysteriously new Fantasy Ingredients, the interest will drop off, all talk, no action!"

"Let’s just watch—"

"For the top-eight and top-four matches, I really want to see what new tricks he can pull off!"

"Ha, he’s very likely to get burned!"

...

In the Tiqie Residence.

After the meeting, Xia Yu and Dojima Yin met with the Far Moon Commander at the tea house.

"Your position as an instructor is only temporary."

Tiqie Xianzuowen said, "Do your best and make this ’Autumn Selection’ a success!"

Phew.

Leaving the Tiqie Residence, Xia Yu’s back was drenched in sweat.

The pressure was immense.

Now, Xia Yu had also realized that the current undercurrents within the Far Moon Board of Directors revolved around him.

Xianzuowen wanted to protect him.

While the faction led by Kikuchi Musashi wanted to get rid of him.

Xia Yu knew that he was in someone else’s way, but alas, he was sorry; he was determined to take this path and leave the Ghost Father Tiqie Ji and those demons with no way out.

"Are you very disappointed?"

Inside the car, Dojima Yin said, "In fact, the Board of Directors of Far Moon has always been struggling. A single member’s seat can cause turmoil for a year."

"In the past, they were the founding heroes of Far Moon’s kingdom, but now, they have become stumbling blocks as Far Moon continues to move forward. The Commander has always wanted to cleanse the Board of Directors. We didn’t force you to join, but please, at least stay neutral, and if possible, help us supervise the Ten Master Mechanism and the Execution Committee..."

Dojima Yin spoke with deep implication.

After speaking, Dojima Yin stepped on the accelerator, "Where do you want to go? I’ll take you."

"The plantation."

"Oh, then I’ll just visit along!"

Shortly after.

Dojima Yin’s SUV stopped at the entrance, he got out of the car and looked through the sturdy separation wire fence.

The valley plain was a verdant scenery.

It was early September, autumn, and also in the distinctly four-season Tokyo, such a lush pastoral scene was indeed rare.

A gentle breeze blew by.

The wind carried a faint fragrance, and Dojima Yin sniffed and exclaimed in shock: "I say, Instructor Xia, just how many Fantasy Plants have you planted in this garden area?"

Basking in the wind, it felt too comfortable; he felt the urge to strip and run naked.

Xia Yu went to open the gate, his back turned to him, his lips slightly moved: "...All of them."

"Huh?!"
