His words clearly demonstrated that reaching the King rank isn't something anyone can do with their hands.
This answer surprised everyone present.
No one expected that Li Shangui, who is over 70 years old, is actually an online game player.
That's not the main point. The key is that he's a champion.
He's a nationally renowned figure when it comes to food, and it turns out he also has a tremendous talent for gaming.
Despite his advanced age, he sounds more capable than many young people.
How many people in the entire country can reach the King rank within a month?
Of course, this is assuming that Li Shangui's statement wasn't an exaggeration.
Upon hearing this, the people around couldn't help but whisper among themselves.
They were both surprised and excited by this situation.
Of course, the most shocked person was Yuan Hua.
I've been playing this game every day and every night lately.
I'm stuck at Silver rank and can't get past it.
With the help of several top players, they recently reached Diamond rank.
As a result, I've dropped back to Silver rank because I've been playing alone these past few days.
But no matter how many battles he fought and lost, he fought on despite repeated defeats.
I just can't get up there no matter what I do.
It seems he wasn't cut out for gaming, but he refused to accept it.
Moreover, he has a great interest in games and seems to never get tired of playing them.
On the contrary, he found cooking very boring.
However, his talent in cooking is truly one in a century.
Even though he doesn't study very seriously in his daily life, he seems to have divine help when it comes to cooking.
Like a fish in water.
At this moment, a middle-aged driver in his forties ran over and said.
"Old Li, Old Wu, that's enough, we should get going."
The two bigwigs nodded slightly, and then, at the driver's instruction, the contestants, the two bigwigs, and the other judges got into the same car, while the other staff got into another car.
As soon as they got in the car, everyone was amazed by its luxurious features.
There aren't many seats here, about twenty or so. There's a bar in the middle, as well as toilets and restrooms. All kinds of facilities and equipment are available.
It's completely different from the buses we usually see; it's not even in the same class.
Everyone was at ease and quickly found their seats.
Then, the truck slowly drove out of the Kyoto University campus and headed to its destination for the day.
It was only then that everyone realized that they were going to a small island in the East China Sea, more than 60 kilometers away from Kyoto University, for a competition.
This is a newly developed island, which the organizers have booked as the venue for the subsequent competitions of this national culinary contest.
It can be described as having mountains, water, and trees.
It is perfect for filming the show and for competitions.
The subsequent matches will be played without spectators, mainly to allow the participants to focus on the competition without distractions.
Unlike before, when tens of thousands of athletes were cheering and jumping for joy in the stadium.
Nowadays, besides the contestants and staff, there are only a few photographers.
The entire competition will be streamed online.
If viewers want to watch it, they can only do so online.
The venue was not open to the public, and before the competition, no one even knew where the venue was.
Just as everyone was getting ready to take a good rest, Yuan Hua suddenly walked up to Li Shangui.
Holding his phone, he stared intently at Li Shangui, his words seemingly tinged with dissatisfaction:
"Old man, I challenge you." After hesitating for a while, he finally said these words.
Upon hearing this, everyone on the bus was nearly speechless with shock.
Yuan Hua seemed to still be thinking about what had just happened, and he was skeptical of what Li Shangui had said.
So he challenged Li Shangui.
Lu Rong couldn't help but smirk as he whispered to Su Tingyun and the others, "Actually, I wanted to say that I'm also a King. If I were to appear, this guy would probably surrender in less than ten minutes."
Despite being incredibly busy every day, Lu Rong actually plays a couple of games whenever he has a spare moment.
Although he didn't play for long, his talent was undeniable.
Reaching the King rank in just a few games seems to have been effortless for him.
"So Senior Lu Rong is also a gaming expert! He hid it so well, I didn't even notice. Someone like me, a mere Star Glory player, wouldn't dare to speak up," Su Tingyun couldn't help but tease from the side.
"Hehe, when I have some free time in a few days, I'll show you what I'm capable of." Lu Rong curled his nose, full of confidence.
"So, do you think what Old Li said earlier was all true?" To be honest, she also had some doubts about whether Li Shangui really knew how to play this game.
Lu Rong frowned and analyzed, "I think it's true, given Old Li's personality. Although it sounds a bit unbelievable to me, it doesn't mean he can't do it. In our impression, it seems that the older generation is not interested in games, and even if they do play, they are not very good at them, but that doesn't mean that everyone is like that."
"Besides, with Yuan Hua's silver-level skill, even my second uncle's child in kindergarten is better than him. As long as Old Li has played this game before, his chances of winning are very high."
Upon hearing this, Su Tingyun, Xu Fei, and the others couldn't help but laugh.
Faced with the challenge from Yuan Hua, Li Shangui showed no sign of panic; in fact, he seemed a little excited.
He smiled and said, "What's your account number? Add me as a friend first."
That's right, Li Shangui agreed to compete with Yuan Hua.
After saying that, he took out his phone, turned on the screen, and there really was a King of Glory game downloaded.
