Reborn: A Meal That Shakes the Heavens

At the Culinary God Competition, Zhou Hai is framed by his junior apprentice Zhang Cheng and master Zhang Yezhao, who sever his tendons and push him off the stage. Reborn three days before the competition, he vows revenge but discovers Zhang Cheng can always steal his creative dishes, even those he merely imagines, and counter-accuse him of plagiarism. Zhou Hai adapts on the spot, faces a blindfolded mystery-box duel, and ultimately sets a trap with 'Stone-Plate Braised Pork in Sour Sauce' to defeat Zhang Cheng, who relies on 'tech and ruthless tricks.' After winning, he returns to the streets to set up a food stall. Three years later, Zhang Cheng returns with foreign forces, and Zhou Hai wins again with ancient culinary techniques, defending the dignity of Chinese cuisine. Before leaving for an international exchange, he receives a mysterious threatening message.
