As Pill King made his announcement, the crowd below erupted into an immediate discussion. Eventually, someone emerged to say, "Pill King, the origin of this woman is unknown. Does it seem like a joke that you're taking her on as a disciple? For so long, our Pill King Valley has been cut off from the outside world. We cannot afford to have any regrets if things go awry."
"It is, indeed! Teaching someone with no prior knowledge of medicinal pills from scratch will be quite troublesome. We have plenty of excellent alchemists right here in Pill King Valley. If Pill King truly wishes to take on a disciple, why not choose one of us? How can we allow an outsider to become the Young Matriarch of Pill King Valley?"
"And if Pill King insists on taking her on, let her prove her worth. We will only recognize her as our Young Matriarch if she can demonstrate her abilities. Otherwise, even if Pill King accepts her as a disciple, we will not accept her, let alone recognize her."
