"Jiuzhen, stop being reckless!" Mu Hua said sternly.
Song Lingzhen was such a legendary figure, known to everyone who studied traditional Chinese dicine.
When people said they had seen him, it might have just been a photograph.
Xia Liu smiled slightly and said no more.
"Everyone, quiet down!" Just as Mu Jiuzhen was about to speak, Huang Letian on the stage spoke up.
As his voice erged, the crowd below gradually quieted down.
"Today, I represent the Huang Family in thanking everyone for coming," Huang Letian made a symbolic bow.
"However, spots are limited, and the Huang Family will select only ten doctors from among you, with this session's judge being teacher Song Lingzhen."
As Huang Letian made the introduction, the crowd broke into applause, and their emotions were very much stirred.
Song Lingzhen, known to every practitioner of traditional Chinese dicine in Huaxia.
He was almost the idol of all current practitioners.
If one could advance, they would surely have the opportunity to discuss with Song Lingzhen later on.
This was the exciting point for the audience below.
"Elder Mu, isn't this Divine Doctor Song extrely skilled? Can he not cure this patient as well?" At that mont, Xia Liu asked, puzzled.
"Ah... Divine Doctor Song, due to his old age, cannot focus during dical practice, and thus dares not treat rashly," Mu Hua sighed as he spoke, "It is said that although Divine Doctor Song can no longer practice, he will accompany the treatnt. That is to say, whoever wins the opportunity will get to discuss with Divine Doctor Song!"
By the end, Mu Hua's eyes were gleaming intensely.
Being able to study a dical case with one's idol was definitely a crazy prospect.
When Huang Letian announced that those who advanced could discuss dical cases with Song Lingzhen, the scene literally exploded!
"Hahaha! I must collaborate with Divine Doctor Song!"
"One of those ten spots must be mine!"
"Mine! Mine!"
Watching the scene, these doctors were like chickens bloodied up, Xia Liu could only shake his head.
Song Lingzhen may have been old, but his vision was sharp; he hesitated to make a move because he wasn't absolutely sure of a cure.
Therefore, they organized this event, fine, when the ti cos, select the person.
Go to treat, and if the treatnt fails, it's not his problem.
All of these were Xia Liu's thoughts.
After maintaining control of the scene, Huang Letian pointed out who should co on stage.
This assessnt was absolutely controlled by Song Lingzhen's disciple, Song Ze.
Song Ze was thirty years old this year, looked sowhat older, and sat respectfully and seriously beside Song Lingzhen, posing questions and assessing every doctor who ca on stage.
If he was the slightest bit dissatisfied, he would disqualify them.
However, after more than an hour, a good half of those present were eliminated, and seven people were already sitting in the chairs below.
One of those seats was Mu Hua's!
Mu Hua sat in the chair, with Mu Qianshan and Mu Jiuzhen standing behind him.
The six other seats were also more or less accompanied by young people.
Only the last three spots remained, and the competition was incredibly fierce.
Xia Liu's heart began to feel complicated.
Theoretically, he had registered much earlier than Mu Hua.
Yet why had Mu Hua advanced, while his own na had yet to be called?
"Congratulations to Teacher Yang Nian on advancing!"
"Ah! There's no chance left!"
"Damn! I haven't even been assessed, how can it end!"
"Exactly! My master hasn't been assessed yet, how can it end!"
As Huang Letian read out the na of the last person to advance, an imdiate outcry of dissent erupted from below.
They were all dissatisfied; it would've been one thing if they'd been called on stage and lost, but to be finished without even going up, that was unacceptable to any of them.
"Ladies and gentlen, please, do not be agitated," Letian announced. "This is just the first round, and we will continue until everyone has a chance to be assessed!"
Upon hearing Letian's words, the crowd finally cald down.
If they were to leave just like that, not only would they have wasted their travel expenses, but they would have also lost so many days.
Letian had his staff lead the advancing candidates into the villa district and the assessnt continued.
This round was evidently much quicker than the first one.
Soon after their nas were called, Song Ze imdiately asked the candidates questions. If anyone took more than three seconds to respond, Letian would instantly call the next doctor's na. Your next chapter is on empire
In such a manner, within just half an hour, two-thirds of the attendees were eliminated again.
Only about ten people were left in the end.
Those eliminated did not leave imdiately; they wanted to see the final outco.
Even after the assessnt was over, they waited. The odd disease had piqued their curiosity—if even Divine Doctor Song, who was supervising, couldn't cure it, it was likely that no one else could.
Xia Liu was among these ten individuals. He had been silent from the beginning, and he remained so even now.
Another ten minutes passed, and now nine people were sitting on the eight chairs.
The only candidate left, undoubtedly, was Xia Liu.
Letian glanced at Xia Liu, who stood there alone, and suddenly felt awkward.
He had discarded Xia Liu's registration information the evening before.
He never thought soone around his own age would co for the assessnt.
Yet, here he was!
"Only the last one left, please!" In front of many, Letian couldn't afford to tarnish the Huang Family's reputation, so he gestured towards Xia Liu.
The audience then turned their eyes towards Xia Liu, beginning to ridicule him.
"Hahaha! I bet this guy will definitely be eliminated!"
"Isn't that obvious without even betting?"
"Haha! I wondered who the last one was, and it turns out to be that moron. What a disgrace to traditional Chinese dicine practitioners!"
"Everyone, quiet down a bit. Didn't you notice even the host is too lazy to say his na?"
…
As Xia Liu walked towards the stage, the onlookers started mocking him.
After the registration last night, Xia Liu was already etched in their minds.
They believed that Xia Liu was a joke.
So didn't even bother to lift their heads, thinking soone as presumptuous as Xia Liu already had his results out.
In response, Xia Liu kept silent, having nothing useful to retort to a fool.
Seeing the continuous mockery from the audience, Song Ze frowned but still posed the question, "How do you treat rheumatoid arthritis?"
"With the needle as the guide, with energy to open channels, with fire to burn the source, and with wood to nurture the spirit."
No sooner had Song Ze finished speaking than Xia Liu responded crisply.
"Pfft! Hahaha..."
"What kind of bizarre theory is this? I've never even heard of it!"
"I think this young man is not bad; because I absolutely don't understand it."
"Hahaha, this is the funniest joke I've ever heard."
"Get off the stage!"
"Exactly, don't disgrace us, traditional Chinese dicine practitioners!"
"Who is this greenhorn? He dares to sign up without knowing anything about traditional Chinese dicine!"
The onlookers burst into furious debate as soon as they heard what Xia Liu said.
Even the older traditional Chinese dicine doctors were blushing with suppression.
Xia Liu's words were not rely a bit embarrassing for them.
Song Ze was quite embarrassed too; he didn't understand Xia Liu's words, which seed less like treatnt and more like nonsense.
However, Song Ze failed to notice that his master, Divine Doctor Song, suddenly had his pupils dilate upon hearing Xia Liu's theory…
