Song Xuan said: "Although the three sets of ducks are decorated with clear soup, the production process is very complicated. You can see that you want to convey the harmonious meaning and beauty of the duck prophet in the spring river water. However, in my opinion, although your dishes are exquisitely cooked, what conveys to me is not the beauty of harmony. What I see is the big duck swallowing the duck and the little duck swallowing the pigeon, and what I feel is the prey of the jungle. Seeing this scene, no matter how good the mood is, it will become bad. What's more, no matter how you do these three birds have become dead. Even if the chef is alive, they cannot restore their vitality. A chef is not a bad thing to show off his skills, but once others focus on your skills, they will ignore the root of cooking, that is, to waste the foundation of the roots and ends!

Although Shen Yingnan was furious at this time, he could not say a reason to refute.

Song Xuan smiled and said, "I don't know what the cooking is, but I'll just teach you something else. The cooking is to try my best to arouse other people's appetite." He turned to Jia Xuegong and said, "You touch your conscience and say justice. If these two dishes are placed together, which dish can arouse your appetite more?"

Jia Xuegong said: "Of course there are three sets of ducks!" The two dishes were placed together, and the meat aroma of home-cooked braised duck was extremely domineering. Since it was opened, the aroma of three sets of ducks had been completely suppressed. Jia Xuegong felt that the saliva of his tongue was completely caused by the taste of home-cooked braised duck. What he was talking about now was simply a lie.

Song Xuan sneered: "You don't even dare to say the truth. You are not worthy of being the judge today." He looked at Xie Yun'an and said: "Old Xie, you say it!"

Xie Yun'an said: "It should be the braised duck that arouses my appetite even more."

Song Xuan said: "Although you are an extremely hypocritical old guy, you told the truth today."

Song Xuan said: "Maybe you are not convinced yet, so why don't you just use your own tongue to comment?"

Qi Cuiting picked up a piece of braised duck and took only one bite. She was stunned. The taste of the duck meat was so familiar that it contained the smell of a random secret seasoning in it. She looked at Su Le in amazement, and for a moment she seemed to understand something.

Xie Yunan also discovered this secret immediately.

Song Xuan said: "Actually, as long as you grasp the key, half a duck can defeat three ducks. I was wrong, it should be two and a half."

No matter how well Song Xuan said, it can only represent his own opinions. The final victory or defeat depends on the joint scores of the five judges. According to the principle of five points as full scores, the five judges scored the four contestants separately.

Qian Xiaohong's firewood duck, Ma Deliang gave five points, Jia Xuegong scored four points, Xie Yunan gave four points, Qi Cuiting gave four points, Song Xuan gave one point, with a total score of eighteen.

Ma Deliang gave a three-pointer for Mao Qingzhong's eight-treasure duck, Jia Xuegong scored a three-pointer, Xie Yunan scored a three-pointer, Qi Cuiting scored a four-pointer, Song Xuan gave a one-pointer, and 14-pointer. A look of disappointment appeared on Mao Qingzhong's face. He didn't expect his score to be so low. Seeing Mao Qingzhong's score, Qian Guisheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. With him at the bottom, his face was saved.

Ma Deliang gave five points for the three sets of ducks made by Shen Yingnan, Jia Xuegong gave five points, Xie Yunan gave four points, Qi Cuiting gave five points, Song Xuan gave zero points, and the total score was 19 points. Although Shen Yingnan was criticized by Song Xuan, his level was indeed extraordinary, and it was normal to get this score.

Su Le's home-cooked braised duck, Ma Deliang gave three points, Jia Xuegong gave two points, Xie Yunan gave five points, Qi Cuiting gave three points, and Song Xuan gave five points. He actually got eighteen points.

In the current ranking, Shen Yingnan is temporarily ranked first, Su Le and Qian Xiaohong tied for second place, while Mao Qingzhong, who has the most average overall strength, ranks last. According to their previous regulations, the last one was eliminated and missed the second stage of the self-selected competition.

Before the self-selected competition started, the contestants were given ten minutes of rest, and there were variables in these ten minutes. After discussing with his daughter, Qian Guisheng decided not to continue participating in the competition. After all, Qian Guisheng had been in the officialdom for a lot of days. Through this period of competition, he had already seen the clues from it. There was not no reason for the rumors outside. This time, the elder brother Chen Wantang and his son were determined to win the Zhan Yundao. Although that boy Su Le seemed to have the worst level, this boy's understanding of the principles of cooking was a bit incredible. If he had not prepared before, how could he understand the principle of simplicity? Could it be that this little boy The son was just pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger? What really prompted Qian Guisheng to give up his determination was to taste the braised duck after he tasted the braised duck. He sat down silently next to his fifth junior brother Mao Guoyuan. Mao Guoyuan also tasted the taste of the master's special seasoning like him. The master's special seasoning was only passed to his junior sister Miao Qingyu. They were very clear about this matter. At that time, the master left the Yanxi Hall to the master's wife, and the Zhanyundao also gave it to the master's wife for safekeeping, but some secret seasoning recipes were only given to Miao Qingyu. Since Su Le had the secret seasoning, it was obvious that Miao Qingyu was supporting him.

Behind Shen Yingnan is the support of his master's wife, and behind Su Le is the support of his junior sister. Behind this cooking competition, there is still only a family dispute. Why do they have to cause trouble? In the end, they just act as supporting roles for others. No matter how hard they try, the sword will not fall on them. Why do they have to do wedding clothes for others? With such thoughts, Qian Guisheng is naturally unwilling to continue. Instead of facing the shame of elimination in the next game, it is better to stop when they see it is better and leave now. It is a wise choice.

After confirmation, the host officially announced that the final showdown would take place between Su Le and Shen Yingnan.

Before the game, Shen Yingnan came to his father, Chen Wantang hugged his son's shoulder and whispered to him: "Don't worry, that Su Le has not undergone regular cooking training at all. I have checked his bottom, and he can't beat you at all."

If Shen Yingnan had been fully confident before the game just now, but the home-cooked braised duck that Su Le showed just now received the highest evaluation of Song Xuan, which made Shen Yingnan's confidence begin to shake. He did not think Su Le's cooking skills were so clever. What he was really worried about was the judges. After all, Song Xuan had just scored him a minimum score of zero. If Song Xuan used his old tricks again in this round of the game, he might have capsized in the gutter.

Many factors in the competition can affect the psychology of the contestants, and the tendency of the judges is one of the main factors.

Su Le's mentality is obviously much better than Shen Yingnan. Of course, this is related to his target positioning. Before coming to participate in the competition, he and his master Zhu Laoer decided to make trouble for the first and second in the competition. The purpose of coming here today is to pull Shen Yingnan off the horse and never let the slaying Yun sword fall into his hands.

Although Su Le never thought of winning the first place, Mao Qingzhong was eliminated and Qian Xiaohong's withdrawal had already pushed him to the forefront. Today, this first place seemed to have to be taken down. If he didn't take it, the Zhanyun Dao was Shen Yingnan's. This result was undoubtedly unacceptable to their master and apprentice.

Zhu Laoer called Su Le aside and whispered: "You are allowed to win or not to lose in this game."

Su Le nodded and said, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely vent my anger for you this time."

Zhu Laoer reached out and put his hand on his shoulder and lowered his voice, "It's not just to vent my anger, but also to Yanxi Hall. The Shen family's father and son are not upright. If the sword of the cloud fell on their hands, it would be equivalent to giving in to Yanxi Hall. If such a thing happens, your master will be unable to rest in peace."

Su Le pursed his lips. In fact, he didn't have much affection for this master who had never met before, but his master Zhu Laoer was really good to him. In addition, Su Le himself was very competitive. Even if there were not so many external factors, he would not want to lose to Shen Yingnan's subordinates.

Zhu Laoer patted his shoulder and said, "Go and prepare!"
