The honest answer: Not happening.
The Asus Zenpad 10 Z300C uses a 32-bit Intel Atom (x86) architecture. Most modern Android versions (10+) require 64-bit ARM or x86_64 drivers. Intel stopped supporting this chip years ago, and no developer has the proprietary blobs to build Android 10. LineageOS 14.1 (Android 7.1) is the final, functional destination for this device.
Do not fall for fake "Android 10 GSI" videos on YouTube for the Z300C. They either do not boot or have broken hardware acceleration.
