“Zero?”


    Everyone was shocked before they burst out inughter. They looked at Dustin like he was a fool.


    “Hahaha… How hrious! The audacity he has to act so arrogantly when he got zero marks!”


    “He looked so certain of himself that I had begun to think he was all that. In the end, he was just


    pretending!”


    “Even I could at least get a few points if I simply wrote some herbs. How did you manage to get zero


    points? What a joke!”


    Everyone started to ridicule him.


    They initially thought Dustin was an expert when he wrote confidently and quickly. But in the end, the


    zero he received said a lot about him and exposed him as a fool.


    “Rascal, I must say, you sure are shameless. How can you behave so arrogantly when you’re getting


    zero? I am amazed.” Preston sarcastically gave him a thumbs-up.


    “If you don’t have the ability, then admit that you don’t. You are humiliating yourself if you insist on


    being arrogant!” Miranda looked at him like he was an idiot.


    “Zero?” Dustin ignored the insults thrown at him and looked straight at the invigtor. “Are you sure you


    didn’t make the wrong judgment?” Dustin asked.


    “What? Are you questioning me?” The invigtor raised a brow.


    “I don’t think I’ve made any mistakes with listing the herbs, so I’m just curious why you gave me zero


    points.” Dustin countered.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    “You’ve indeed got most of the herbs right, but you added aconite to the list,” the invigtor said icily


    “Alright, let’s put aside whether I got that wrong. Even if aconite were a wrong answer, I’d only get ten


    points deducted. Why did I end up with zero?” Dustin pressed.


    ording to the rules, one mistake meant he lost ten points. He would only be disqualified after three


    mistakes. He really could notprehend how he ended up with zero marks.


    “If it were just a regr mistake, I would not have given you zero points. But the problem is, you listed


    aconite as one of the ingredients, which reacts with the Fritiria bulb in the medicine and bes a


    deadly poison! If a doctor cannot even understand the difference between medicine and poison, what


    makes you think you can join the Stoneray Order? And this is the reason why I’ve given you zero


    points. Are you happy with my exnation?” the invigtor asked gravely.


    “Of course not,” Dustin answered. “You were the ones who brewed the medicine. I’m only listing what I


    think is in there. So even if it’s poisonous, that’s your problem, not mine.”


    “How dare you!” The invigtor lost his cool right then and there. “Why would the Stoneray Order put


    something poisonous into our medicine? You are simply spouting nonsense!”


    “Hey, rascal! Are you just here to create problems for everyone? You know you can’t win, so this is your


    way of disrupting things?” Preston asked with irritation


    “We should drive this troublemaker out, or things will only worsen.” Miranda looked at him with


    contempt.


    “Get out! Get out!” Many of the people there echoed in agreement. How dare a person who scored zero


    marks behave so arrogantly? He was only going to embarrass himself even more.


    “Guys, throw him out of here!” The Stoneray Order’s disciples rushed toward Dustin on the invigtor’s


    order.


    “Hold on.” Just as they were about to grab Dustin, Linden, who sat at the main seat and had


    watched everything happen, spoke up. “He’s a promising talent. Let’s keep him around.”


    Upon hearing that, everyone was taken aback. No one expected Linden to speak up for someone who


    was trash.
