“However, Cindy rke has eliminated one after another using despicable means. Together, we can certainly deal with her, right?” Iris Doone said.


    “Besides, don’t forget that Zoe Silverstone is still around.” Iris Doone added.


    “Zoe Silverstone?” Joseph Tanner hadn’t paid much attention to her.


    “The harm Cindy rke did to Zoe was not just a simple elimination. She can’t even continue as a food blogger now, and many brands have terminated their coborations with her. In other words, Zoe’s source of ie was directly cut off by Cindy rke.”


    “You say, with such heartless behavior like cutting off ie directly, could Zoe just let it go?” Iris Doone said.


    Joseph Tanner squinted his eyes: “We three can join forces.”


    “Yes.” Iris Doone nodded, “After thepetition today, I’ll contact Zoe. I might not be able to reach her immediately, but don’t worry. As soon as I get in touch with her, I’ll let you know. Then we’ll figure it out.”


    Joseph Tanner looked at the advancing seats opposite: “Anyway, I can’t let Cindy rke be so triumphant!”


    “Of course.” Iris Doone nodded.


    The next groups were quickly evaluated.


    In the end, the ten people under Pin Academy sessfully advanced: Parker Honi, Jasmine Hudson, Aiden Huxley, dys Joy, Daniel Vahn, Yannick O’Brian, Cynthia Florine, Bartholomew Bailey, Ava Brown, and Leon Hernandez.<div>


    The remaining five ces went to Cindy rke, Larry Bet, Natalie Campbell, Yellen Brooks, and ke Walker.


    One could say that ke Walker had been extraordinarily lucky.


    Although he was ranked low, he drew an opponent who was simr to his own level.


    He ultimately won by a slim margin.


    When all the results came out, whether it was the advancing yers or those eliminated, all of them returned to the stage together.


    After all, they were the top 30.


    The eliminated yers had to get some screen time before leaving the stage.


    “Doone.” When everyone gathered, ke Walker came to find Iris Doone.


    Iris Doone was full of mixed emotions.


    Because they were assigned to the same group during the auditions and advanced together, she got along well with ke Walker.


    Moreover, their skills were about the same.


    But she never expected that she would be eliminated, and ke Walker would advance.


    ke Walker was so lucky to draw an opponent with the same level as him.


    Iris Doone thought jealously, why didn’t ke Walker draw someone from Pin?


    Even if he drew Cindy rke, ke Walker wouldn’t have a chance to advance!


    With that level of skill, his advancement was the biggest joke!


    On the surface, Iris Doone gently said, “Congrattions.”


    “I was just lucky this time.” Despite what ke Walker said, his face still showed an unconceble triumph.<div>


    He had been lucky to get an opponent with a simr ranking.


    But it also proved that he was indeed stronger than his opponent, so he won.


    He advanced on his own merits.


    “I just didn’t expect you to…” ke Walker sighed, “I wanted to fight alongside you.”<div>


    Iris Doone gave a sweet, gentle smile, saying, “It’s okay, you can work hard for both of us.”


    “I can’t continue in thepetition, and I won’t have a chance to beat Cindy rke again. It’s all up to you now, you have to win against her!” Iris Doone said, ” You can’t let her be so triumphant.”


    “Of course, I will.” ke Walker didn’t know where his confidence came from, but he dared to promise that.


    “Please, eliminated contestants,e to the front,” Wesley Gordon said at that moment.


    Iris Doone smiled at ke Walker and hurried to the front.


    “Although you were eliminated in this round, remember that you are this year’s top 30. You have emerged throughyers of selection and finally stood on this racecourse as the top 30. You are among the top 30 of the country’s youth chefs.” Wesley Gordon encouraged them.


    Many people felt their blood boiling as Wesley Gordon spoke.


    “This failure is not the end. I hope you can learn something from thispetition and improve your cooking skills. In this way, the purpose of thepetition will be achieved.” Wesley Gordon said.


    “Wishing you a bright future, next year, you are still wee to participate.” Michael Greene smiled and said.


    “Here, congrattions to the 15 sessful advancing contestants.” Hunter rke said, “Congrattions, you are the 15 best young chefs in the country. The following matches will be more intense, so be prepared.”


    At this moment, a staff member came up and said something in Wesley Gordon’s ear.


    Wesley Gordon nodded and said, “At the beginning of the match, there was a dispute in the food storage room. Among them, contestant Cindy rke’s ingredients were destroyed, and she requested to check the video footage from the live broadcast in the food storage room.”


    “During thepetition, the staff reviewed the footage taken before and the results are now avable.” Wesley Gordon said.<div>


    “In the spirit of fairness and openness, and in order to appease everyone, we will now broadcast the video on-site, revealing it to all contestants, the audience on-site, and those watching the live broadcast through various tforms.” Wesley Gordon said.


    After speaking, Wesley Gordon instructed the staff to y the video, disying it on the big screen and streaming channels for all audiences to see.


    The big screen and online live streaming tform both switched to the video.


    The top right corner of the video showed the time it was taken.


    This allowed the audience to clearly know when it was taken, and the constantly changing second count also proved that this video was not edited.


    The staff responsible for checking the video brought up a microphone and said, “Before ying the part where the contestants went to the food storage room to check the ingredients, I want to go back to 75 minutes ago. I won’t say anything; just watch. Even though it’s 75 minutes back, the viewing time is not long. We’ll watch that specific time and then go back.”


    The staff looked at Wesley Gordon.


    Wesley Gordon nodded, and the staff adjusted the video to 75 minutes prior.


    The first image to appear was an empty food preparation room.


    The time when the contestants went to check the ingredients was even earlier than 75 minutes ago.


    That was long before the start of thepetition, probably around noon.


    Suddenly, Iris Doone appeared in the frame.


    She walked halfway around the food storage room, found Cindy rke’s ingredient section, and stopped right in front of it,<div>


    She looked at it for a while and then left.


    “Did Iris Doone go there first?”


    “What did she do staring at Cindy rke’s ingredients?”


    “It seems that it really might be her who did it; otherwise, why would she go there?”


    Iris Doone didn’t expect the organizers to turn on the camera so early!


    “In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong during the live broadcast, we started testing the cameras ahead of time.”
