Ze immediately stood up and stepped up the stairs leading up to the stage making the smiles of King Kai and princess Rou ruan fade. The smile turned into a confused face.
"For what does an ordinary woman like her take the stage? Don't tell me that he wants to represent the kingdom over the clouds." princess Rou ruan asked her father in a whisper.
"Dad doesn't know either. Let's see what he wants to do first. After that we just think about what to do." replied King Kai.
"Yes dad." Princess Rou ruan.
Ze stepped casually towards the stage ignoring the similarly disparaging astonished gazes of almost everyone present in that place.
"Stop....!" exclaimed the person called the master teacher when Ze's feet were almost on the stage.
Ze stopped his steps and looked at the person who stopped his steps. The man stepped closer to Ze.
"Why did you get on this stage?" ask the teacher with a little bit of a brush.
"Are you senile old man?" ask Ze back.
Hearing Ze's words many people were shocked. No one dared to speak in a casual tone to the omniscient teacher and this time a woman spoke in a casual tone even addressing him senile and calling him an old geezer.
"YOU......"
"Don't anyone know what the purpose of people going up on this stage is for. Why do you still need to ask again?" sela Ze's.
"What does it mean that you will be the participant of the kingdom who is the guest of honor this time?" ask the teacher with a condescending look at Ze.
"Is there something wrong with that?" ask Ze back casually.
"You don't have the aura of an alchemist. Then...."
"I don't have it but you don't deserve to see my aura." Ze said.
"You just want to play this competition or you want to embarrass yourself by being a participant while you don't have the ability?" ask King Kai.
"I'm capable or not, worth it or not, that you haven't seen yet?" ask Ze back.
"Why don't you guys allow me to enter this competition?" add Ze.
"Because I don't allow you to enter this competition." replied the master.
"Just because you're a little better than everyone else you've been arbitrarily making additional rules in the competition. Is it worth your master's degree?" ze said with a mocking smile.
"I...."
"Then are you sure you can make pills to the lowest standards of this competition?" asked Princess Rou Ruan to interrupt Ze and the teacher.
"Why not?" answer Ze.
"We'll give you a chance to take part in this competition. But, if you prove to be nothing more than nonsense, you and the kingdom you represent must follow the 2 things that Zhen will decide. How's it?" challenge King Kai.
"Hm no problem." Ze's willing.
"Then, what if I can and even more than that?" ask Ze.
"Then you can enter this competition." replied King Kai.
"Then we will also follow your 2 wishes." Princess Rou ruan.
"I hold your word." said Ze.
"Alright, you I'll allow you to enter this competition. If you fail to make the pills to the lowest standards, then I will punish you." said the master.
"If I'm capable then you should apologize for the unpleasant treatment you've done to me right now just because of your inability to see my achievements" Ze said.
"Heh, okay." Saut maha guru.
The spectators were amazed to also feel pity for Ze. Amazed because Ze is the only one who is disrespectful to the master and does not immediately get punished. It's a pity that they think Ze is just bullshit and will get punished later.
"You know not the standard pill that can pass is a medium quality high-level top-tier pill?" ask Mr. Lei just to make sure that Ze knows.
"Yes, I know." replied Dair.
Ze simply nodded in response to Mr. Lei's question.
"When you're half an incense stick. Now please begin." said Mr. Lei.
The time needed to make a pill higher in rank for normal people was certainly more then the time given was 1 hour different from the previous alchemist competition that Ze had participated in.
Dair started immediately making his pills whereas Ze was just casually crafting the medicinal ingredients he was going to make. Even after finishing Ze just kept silent to make the smile of King Kai and princess Rou ruan expand.
"I don't think he knows what to do, so he just fell silent" said Rou Ruan's daughter.
"You're right Rou rou. We're getting closer to our goal because of him." Saut King Kai.
"It turns out it's just bullshit. You have to make me suffer for humiliating me in front of everyone. Disrespectful and arrogant when just useless trash." murmured the master with a dark face in anger at Ze.
"Is the Queen of the upper palace of the clouds an idiot? He challenged the Supreme Master while he had no abilities?" ask the audience A.
"Okay, maybe because he was too spoiled by the King and his family, he dared to be pretentious. He didn't know that the master teacher wasn't someone he deserved to be nosy." replied his friend.
"You are right, the palace of the clouds will soon face difficulties because of their Queen" said the audience c.
There were many rumors mentioning Ze's stupidity and arrogance because Ze had done nothing for a while whereas his opponent had focused on his limbs from the start. Ze did not care about scorning and insulting others.
He is too lazy to respond to what people say about him. He was still relaxed until half an hour had passed and Ze had already started a fire under his medicinal furnace. Everyone except Jin hu, Hui tu and Zili began to be surprised to see Ze was able to turn on the fire under his legs very easily.
"It turns out he is indeed an alchemist." muttered King Kai.
"Was he really capable of making pills to my father's standards?" ask princess Rou ruan.
"Father no, he definitely won't be able to" replied King Kai confidently.
They were all now focused on what Ze was doing. Ze started to put the medicinal ingredients into the furnace. He was very focused at the moment and it made King Kai and princess Rou ruan dislike.
