Chapter 354:
Upon seeing the question, Barlow felt a surge of confidence. He was well-versed in this topic. He cleared his
throat and began confidently, “Ensuring ingredient stability during potion making is essential. First, it’s vital to
rigorously control the quality of raw materials and choose trustworthy suppliers...”
Barlow spoke at length on the topic, demonstrating his expertise with ease. When he finished, he threw a
challenging look at Khloe.
Khloe, however, stayed composed. She thought for a moment before replying with methodical precision,
“Ensuring ingredient stability involves multiple factors. First, designing an exact formula is key, and you must
carefully consider the interactions between ingredients...”
Khloe’s response was clear and to the point, showcasing her professional expertise and unique perspective. Her
answer caused the members of Origin Company to reassess their dismissive view of her.

“Barlow’s answer was solid, but Khloe’s was impressive too! How is this even possible? Ingredient stability is
Barlow's specialty; he’s been studying it for over a decade.”
The members of Origin Company murmured amongst themselves, while Barlow stared at Khloe, astonished.
This woman, whom he had thought was nothing more than eye candy, had provided an answer that, though
different from his, was just as impressive. But this was his area of expertise.
After a brief pause, the scores were revealed on the screen. Both Khloe and Barlow had earned the sscore.
It was a tie.
Barlow's face turned crimson, a wave of frustration and disbelief washing over him. He had boasted earlier,
certain that he would easily defeat Khloe, yet here they were, tied.
“Huh, you must've gotten lucky, picking a question you were prepared for. But the next one? You won't stand a
chance,” Barlow sneered, his teeth clenched in frustration, still unwilling to accept that Khloe might actually be
better than him.

“Oh, really?” Khloe raised her eyes to meet his, a playful smirk tugging at her lips. “Want to make it interesting?

Khloe’s words hit their mark, and Barlow's face turned an angry shade of red. He was caught between fury and
hesitation. But he wasn’t foolish enough to risk his career.
The consequences of losing were too high: being kicked out of Origin Company, a price he couldn't afford. And
what if Khloe got lucky again, drawing another question she had already prepared for?
Barlow, ever the schemer, ignored her challenge and retorted, “What, can’t beatfair and square, so now you
want to play tricks? I'm no gullible rookie you can fool with your petty schemes!”
Hearing Barlow's words, the leader of Origin Company nodded in agreement. “Barlow is being wise. Khloe comes
from a strong background and has a mysterious edge. It’s possible that the next question could be leaked to her.
Barlow is right not to take the risk.”
A cold glint flashed in Khloe’s eyes at Barlow's words. “If you're afraid of losing the bet, just say it. No need for
