The various other Kings and important figures consoled Alex on the fact that there was no shame in losing to alchemists of the Eastern Continent. After all, Eastern Continent did have the best alchemy knowledge among all the other continents.
Alex smiled, thanking them for their words.
"Your alchemists are not bad," the Dragon Emperor said after the commotion was over. The alchemists on stage were made to rest for a bit before the next tests started.
"Our alchemists need to know all the ingredients so that they can pass the test. You don't have something like that at your place, do you?" he asked.
