However Bai Lung acompetition it didn't know he was in grave danger.

After some time,

The old man donned in fairy clothes announced," Ahem* Ahem* after careful selection only five of you will be moving to the fifth round... The participants are

- Bai Lung

- Gu Chnggee

- Wang

- Prince Qin

- Li Huan

Well despite his Dao heart being shattered, he still has a system to help him out so he also managed to get a perfect score.

"This Gu Changgee the hidden cat of the Gu family seems to be the mountain ruling lion,"

"Indeed, he was the first one to complete the challenge..."

"The competition doesn't seem fair... So many people joined but only men were at the top, I am offended... Hmph! Women can make alchemy pills too,"

"Stay offended sister, nobody gives a shit..."

"it's all here and now... I think the one that can make the best pill will win the throne as successor,"

"No matter who says what, this is here... Li Huan will win the contest..."

"Don't dream with open eyes, Bai Lung will win the contest,"

"Seniors and Juniors have good eyes but not perfect, Young Master Gu would for sure win this contest,"

"Poor guy Wang, for a servant he does seem to have some talent..."

"Indeed... Now I think of it, why does it feel like Gu Changgee attacked that servant because he was talented"

"Indeed that makes white the sense... Gu Changgee must be a jealous person,"

When you gain fame, people are divided into two group.

One those who support you, so-called fan.

And the next group who will hate you, the haters.

And at the moment haters have concluded that Gu Changge was jealous of Wang.

However one thing was certain, Gu Changgee was the centre of attention.

As the old man finished announcing the top five participants, the atmosphere in the competition hall became electric.

The crowd buzzed with excitement, analyzing and debating the strengths and weaknesses of each contestant.

The old man, with a sly smile, continued, "Now, for the third round, you will be tasked with creating the most exquisite alchemy pill. The one who produces the pill with the highest quality and potency will be declared the winner. You will have three hours to complete this task. The ingredients and materials you need will be provided to you... Let the competition begin!"

The five contestants nodded, their eyes gleaming with determination.

Bai Lung ever the calm and collected man, didn't instantly begin to examine the ingredients laid out before him.

Rather he said there closing his eyes to show how menacing he was.

It was like he didn't care much at all.

However,

Prince Qin on the other hand with his regal demeanor, started to mentally prepare himself, visualizing the perfect pill.

He wanted to win this because currently, his throne is in danger, and by becoming the successor for Saint Alchemist he could further strengthen his chances to become the emperor.

Li Huan, the unknown guy that suddenly popped out of nowhere was quiet and enigmatic who seemed to be in deep thought, his eyes fixed on some invisible point.

He was full of scholarly aura.

At the same time,

Gu Changgee, the man, the myth, the center of attention, smiled serenely, his eyes glinting with a hint of mischief.

It was a perfect... Simply perfect, the god sent. ???-

He needed 3 hours for his system to be upgraded and the contest will also be going for 3 hours, which means as soon as the contest ends Bai Lung will die.

He began to arrange his ingredients with precision, his movements swift and economical.

And lastly,

Wang!

Despite his crippled Dao heart and no spiritual powers, stood tall and proud with his eyes burning with an inner fire.

He seemed to be fueled by a determination to prove himself, to show that even without his powers, he was still a force to be reckoned with.

Overall, he was a protagonist doing protagonist stuff.

As the three hours passed, the contestants worked tirelessly, their faces set in intense concentration.

Unlike Bai Lung who didn't wished to win, other wanted to win so they had to fake that they worked very hard putting their entire soul in it.

Finally, the timer went off, and the old man announced, "Time's up! Let us now inspect the creations of our talented contestants!"

Bai Lung who was still exuding an air of confidence, revealed his pill.

It was a gleaming silver orb, adorned with intricate patterns that seemed to shift and shimmer in the light.

"I've created a pill that enhances spiritual awareness," he explained, his voice low and smooth.

"It will allow the pill consumer to sense even the subtlest changes in their surroundings."

Prince Qin presented his pill next, a majestic golden capsule with a regal crest emblazoned on its surface. "My pill is designed to amplify the user's magical abilities," he declared, his voice ringing with authority. "It will grant them unparalleled power and control over their elemental forces."

Li Huan's pill was a humble, unassuming brown pellet, but as the old man examined it, his eyes widened in surprise.

"This pill is a masterclass in subtlety," he murmured. "It won't grant immense power or flashy abilities, but it will grant the user unparalleled clarity of thought and strategic insight. A true scholarly approach..."

Gu Changgee's pill was a dazzling, iridescent crystal that seemed to shift and change color as one gazed upon it. "My pill is a work of art," he said, his smile enigmatic. "It will grant the user a temporary boost to their alchemical abilities, allowing them to create even more exquisite pills. And, of course, it will also ensure my victory in this contest..."

Wang's pill, despite his crippled Dao heart, was a remarkable achievement.

He didn't have a fire and stuff so It was a simple, unadorned white tablet, but as the old man examined it, he nodded in approval.

"This pill may not be flashy, but it's a testament to Wang's heart... A lesson can be learned, never give up,"

But truth be told, Wang was a failure.

His pill was brunt and had no effect at all.

"Now then let the top three grandmasters rate all these pills..." The old man uttered loudly.

With that the first top-three grandmaster began his judgement.

The grandmaster alchemist was Lao Wei, a wise and aged man with a long white beard, who walked around the contestants, examining each of their pills with great care stroking his beard. His eyes sparkled with excitement as he analyzed each creation.

First, he came to Bai Lung's pill, the gleaming silver orb. "Ah, a pill that enhances spiritual awareness," he said, his voice filled with admiration. "The patterns on the surface are exquisite, and the energy emanating from it is strong. However, I must say that I sense a hint of... laziness in the creation of this pill. It's not bad, but it's not exceptional either.

I give it a score of 7 out of 10..."

Next, he came to Prince Qin's pill, the majestic golden capsule. "A pill that amplifies magical abilities," he said, his voice filled with respect. "The regal crest on the surface is impressive, and the energy emanating from it is powerful. However, I must say that I sense a hint of... arrogance in the creation of this pill. It's flashy, but it's not well-balanced.

I give it a score of 8 out of 10."

Then, he came to Li Huan's pill, the humble brown pellet. "A pill that grants clarity of thought and strategic insight," he said, his voice filled with approval. "The subtlety of this pill is impressive, and the energy emanating from it is pure. I give it a score of 9 out of 10."

After that, he came to Gu Changgee's pill, the dazzling iridescent crystal.

"A pill that grants a temporary boost to alchemical abilities," he said, his voice filled with admiration.

He himself was a alchemist so such pill is bound to catch his heart.

"The artistry of this pill is exceptional, and the energy emanating from it is strong. However, I must say that I sense a hint of... trickery in the creation of this pill. It's a clever trick... I will give it 9 out of 10,"

The grandmaster alchemist then approached Wang's simple, unadorned white tablet.

He examined it closely, his brow furrowed in concentration.

After a long moment, he looked up and spoke, his voice filled with warmth.

"This pill may not be flashy or powerful, but it is a true testament to Wang's heart and determination. Despite his crippled Dao heart and lack of spiritual powers, he has crafted a pill that is pure and honest. It may not have any extraordinary effects, but it is a reflection of his unwavering spirit. For that, I give it a score of 5 out of 10.

A lesson can be learned here - never give up, no matter the obstacles you face, things may be hard but it can get harder... Stay Hard!"

The grandmaster then stepped back, his eyes sweeping over the five contestants. "You have all done an admirable job,"
