As the viewers were surprised by the live broadcast,
Geberton, kneeling on the ground, lifted his head to look at the cara, even tearfulness glistened in his eyes.
Many in front of their TV sets thought Geberton was overwheld with emotion, hence the tears.
In reality, it was the intense pain that flared up intermittently after "that thing" of his was gone, which made him want to cry out in pain.
"In addition, I hereby formally announce that I, Geberton, am withdrawing from this dical competition. With my dical skills, I am not qualified to be Senior Shen's opponent," Geberton said sincerely.
Before.
He had been so arrogant.
Geberton, who had derided Chinese dicine as trash, had now perford a complete one-eighty in attitude, voluntarily apologizing to Shen Feng and to the entire Chinese dicine community.
To think he even said his dical skills were not worthy to carry Shen Feng's shoes? People in Huaxia Country sitting in front of their televisions, anyone who had followed the dostic dical selection competition, knew who Shen Feng was!
What's most important is that Geberton, as the top-ranked participant in the international dical competition, was even willing to kneel to apologize to Shen Feng.
For a mont.
The audience watching the live broadcast were stirred up, and various posts started appearing online.
The debates about Shen Feng grew more nurous and, even with Geberton's apology, in just a short period of ti, Shen Feng climbed to the top of the hot search lists on major websites.
"What the, is this a plot twist drama? Geberton kneeling and apologizing to a loser? Has he been kicked in the head by a donkey?"
"In my opinion, when things are abnormal, there must be demons at play. This foreigner might have experienced Shen Feng's dical prowess and was truly conquered by it. During the previous international dical competition, Shen Feng really might have been delayed by so matters."
"It's still premature to draw conclusions now, indeed Geberton has withdrawn from the competition, but isn't there still soone who hasn't withdrawn? We should bring out whether it is a mule or a horse for a walk, and if Shen Feng can win, then it will prove that his dical skills can indeed be called the world's first. We can't just listen to Geberton's side of the story, who knows if there isn't so hidden agenda?"
"If Shen Feng's dical skills can really win first place, then there will surely be a great show to watch, and perhaps the declining Chinese dicine will rise once more."
...
After Geberton apologized during the live broadcast, online comnts swiftly changed direction, with many people's attitudes gradually leaning towards Shen Feng.
After Geberton finished apologizing on the broadcast, Yarville and Kouro imdiately rushed with him to see Shen Feng.
They had already investigated Shen Feng's current whereabouts.
Once in the car,
Geberton could no longer hold himself back, taking deep, gasping breaths through his throat.
Kouro spoke coldly, "You perford quite well in front of the cara just now. When you et Senior Shen later, you must imdiately kneel on the ground; this is your only chance to save your life. Grasp it well for yourself!"
Geberton bit down hard on his teeth, the pain was truly unbearable, and he nodded forcefully.
While they were heading to Tianhai Traditional Chinese dicine Institute,
In the eting room of Tianhai Traditional Chinese dicine Institute,
The commanding presence around Shen Feng had just stabilized. He drastically retracted the Spiritual Energy he had been emitting so that Miao Bohou and the other old n who were sleeping wouldn't be affected by the energy; otherwise, they might have t their demise right there, never to open their eyes again.
He clenched his fists slightly.
Shen Feng felt the energy of the Eighth Layer Peak of Foundation Establishnt within his body; he had risen directly from the Initial Stage of the Eighth Layer to the Peak.
After reaching the Eighth Layer Peak, he paused for a mont. He was now getting increasingly closer to the Tenth Layer of Foundation Establishnt. Back in the Immortal Realm, he had only advanced to the Ninth Layer during the Foundation Establishnt Stage, and stepping into the Tenth Layer was probably not that simple.
Previously, to aid Bing Han, he had recklessly absorbed the cultivation and power from others' flesh and blood, wanting to increase his Cultivation quickly, which led to the ergence of a peculiar Black Dot within his Dantian.
However, if he could step into the tenth layer of Foundation Establishnt, he would still strive for it.
After all, breaking through after reaching the tenth layer of Foundation Establishnt would only elevate his future achievents.
Furthermore, he had no idea how many powerful enemies awaited him in the Immortal Realm. After calming down a bit, he still wanted to attempt reaching the tenth layer of Foundation Establishnt before choosing to advance to the Golden Core Stage.
A good while after Shen Feng's aura had completely stabilized, Miao Bohou and the others, who had fallen asleep, began to wake up one by one.
Just then,
Lu Yang and Qiao Zimo, among others, entered the conference room.
They had just witnessed Geberton's live apology and rushed to the Tianhai Traditional Chinese dicine Institute, knowing that Shen Feng and the others might still be unaware of it.
Upon entering the conference room,
without saying much, they took out their phones and replayed the video from the internet.
Shen Feng remained perfectly calm throughout.
On the other hand, Miao Bohou and Qiu Baixing and the other elders felt an imnse sense of satisfaction upon seeing Geberton's apology. However, as they thought about how Shen Feng had been with them the whole ti and that Geberton couldn't possibly have experienced Shen Feng's dical skills, they fell into a brief contemplation.
With a loud "Bang!"
This ti, the conference room door was forcefully pushed open.
Miao Bohou and the others were jolted out of their thoughts to see a burly foreign man walking in.
This foreign man had a deep scar by his right eye; had the scar been even slightly further to the side, he surely would have lost the eye.
The foreign man who walked into the conference room was nad Henrik, the head of a secret departnt within the United States.
However, this secret departnt was very small.
Henrik had co along with Geberton, always trying to recruit him into his departnt.
Before long, they had an important mission in their departnt, and they desperately needed an Ultra-capable who was proficient in dicine to join them.
Only yesterday did Henrik leave Tianhai.
Imagine his surprise when he barely returned to Tianhai to see Geberton's live broadcast, though he didn't see Yarville and Kouro in the stream.
Calling Geberton yielded no answer, as his phone was off the whole ti.
Knowing Geberton's character, Henrik guessed that either the Chinese dicine Community of Huaxia Country had pressured him, or it might have been so other power within Huaxia Country.
He was aware that now was a good opportunity to recruit Geberton, as the head of a secret departnt in the United States—though small—he figured the people of Huaxia Country ought to show him so courtesy, right?
Unable to find Geberton, Henrik learned that the bigwigs of the Chinese dicine Community had all gathered at the Traditional Chinese dicine Institute, so he decided to co here first to check out the situation.
The mont he stepped into the conference room,
Henrik's presence erupted as he unleashed the aura of a level 3 Ultra-capable, slamming his palm onto the table.
"Bang!"
As the table shattered, he demanded, "Regarding Geberton's matter, doesn't the Chinese dicine Community of Huaxia Country owe us an explanation? You were the ones who proposed this competition; surely you wouldn't stoop to committing such despicable and shaless acts, right?"
His gaze settled on Shen Feng, "Especially you. I know you're the coward who fled the battle at the international dicinal contest. Give a reasonable explanation!"
"If you don't want to incur hostilities between our two nations, then please do not doubt my words. I still hold so sway in certain departnts of the United States."
