⚠️ Spoilers ahead.

In this volume, Jan squares off against the remnants of the chefs who once destroyed his father, choosing Zha Jiang Mian as the theme. While his opponent relies on traditional oil manipulation, Jan executes a mad plan to maximize gluten elasticity without using any oil at all. Every bite explodes with a sweetness that borders on the divine, overwhelming the judges to the point of collapse. The sensory onslaught is so severe that it strips away their professional pride, leaving them trembling in the face of his culinary cruelty. The duel ends in a humiliating defeat for the veteran, who is forced to swallow his own bitterness as his reputation crumbles. Jan remains unfazed, his eyes already fixed on the next victim. He treats cooking not as an art, but as a weapon of subjugation, cementing his reputation as a god of destruction in the world of Chinese cuisine. This is a masterclass in culinary arrogance and absolute skill.
