Chapter 70: Whistling at the beauty

  The competition is divided into three items: the first item is a written test, the second item is drug component identification, and the third item is on-site comparison.

  As soon as the game was officially announced, the staff sent by Jiangwan City Medical Association handed out the test papers to each contestant, and the contestants started answering questions with their pens.

  At the judges' table, a man in his forties with a refined demeanor smiled and said to Chen Tianling: "Director Chen, I heard that your daughter was once featured on a medical journal in Munich, Germany. That's the highest honor our Jiangwan City students have ever received for studying medicine abroad. This time, your daughter should have a great chance of winning first prize!"

  The speaker was Zhao Dejiang, the deputy director of Jiangwan City's Second Hospital. When Zhao Dejiang mentioned his daughter, Chen Tianling couldn't help but smile with pride, his eyes filled with a sense of self-satisfaction: "Actually, my wife and I originally wanted to cultivate this girl in the artistic field from childhood, but unexpectedly she also liked the medical profession, studied very seriously, and achieved some small achievements. However, these achievements are nothing compared to the medical talents of Jiangwan City."

  Zhao Dejiang smiled and said: "Dean Chen's words are really too modest."

  Professor Zhang Shoucai, the most renowned medical professor in Jiangwan City, who was sitting on the judges' panel, nodded and said: "It's good that young Chen is humble. However, I also hope your daughter can achieve a good result, which will bring glory to you and later to our Jiangwan City."

  Chen Tianling, who is nearly sixty years old, became "Little Chen" in Zhang Shoucai's mouth. However, Zhang Shoucai was already nearly eighty years old and was extremely famous nationwide, known as the number one person in Jiangwan City's medical community and an internationally recognized orthopedic expert. If not for his advanced age and limited energy, he should have been the one hosting this grand competition today.

  Chen Tianling hastily said: "What Mr. Zhang said is true, how has Mr. Zhang's body been recently?"

  "As one gets older, the body becomes more fragile, and that's just how it is. What's important to me is that in the remaining years of my life, I hope to see our Chinese medical community produce more talents. Alas, although our Chinese medicine has continued to thrive over the years, the scene of two old masters dominating the world medical field like they did thirty years ago can never be seen again."

  Chen Tianling also nodded in agreement, "Yes, that era was unprecedented and never to be seen again. Especially that one peak showdown, it's probably impossible for something like that to happen again in the world."

  A relatively young judge asked in a low voice: "Old Zhang, Dean Chen, are you talking about the only medical showdown between the two medical kings?"

  Zhang Shoucai nodded, his eyes filled with a deep sense of reverence. "I was fortunate enough to witness that epic battle myself," he said. "From ancient times to the present, there have been fewer than five people who can be called the King of Medicine. And yet, in our great nation of Huaxia, two medical masters with unparalleled skills emerged at the same time, one known as the King of Medicine and the other, due to his use of poison to counter poison, known as the Poison King."

  "One mountain cannot contain two tigers. In the same era, there appeared two medical masters with unparalleled abilities, which was a blessing for that era. However, these two masters could not coexist, which was an unfortunate thing for that era. After the final showdown, the Poison King lost by a hair's breadth, and since then, the two medical saints have been nowhere to be found."

  After finishing speaking, Zhang Shou couldn't help but sigh, and the others also followed with a long sigh. It takes thousands of years for China to produce a medical king, and thirty years ago, China had two great medical kings with holy hands, which can be called a legendary era. Even the pattern of Chinese medicine and world medicine may change due to this, and the entire world's medicine may be advanced by decades because of this. The disappearance of these two great medical kings was an unprecedented disaster for that era.

  At the time they were still sighing, the written test below had been going on for about half of the time. Zhang Xiao was the first to finish the paper, and Francis was the second. After putting down his pen, Francis looked around the whole scene, sat there with his arms around him, and his eyes were full of pride.

  In the audience seat, Zheng Miao said anxiously: "Dad, why hasn't Fang Junzhou finished his paper yet? He won't lose to these people, will he?"

  Zheng Guangran said with a confident face: "Don't worry, my dear daughter. Zhang Xiaoxiao and Francis are all graduates of medical schools, so their theoretical knowledge is naturally more proficient. However, the score of the written test only accounts for a small part of the total score, don't mind it."

  Zheng Miaomiao nodded and looked at Chu Nan in the arena, saying with hatred: "In short, he must not lose to that useless thing Chu Nan!"

  Zheng Guangran was confident, thinking that Fang Junzhou was a talent sent by the eighth master, and even the eighth master was polite to him. How could he lose to these people? If Fang Junzhou can get first place this time, or even win first place in the Northern Medical Competition, then Jiangwan City's number one businessman will be mine!

  Zheng Guangran's eyes burst forth with a fierce light, he suddenly thought of the promise Eighth Master made to him, that as soon as Fang Junzhou won first place in the Northern Medical Competition, Eighth Master would help him swallow up the Wu family, just like how they had annihilated the Chu Changtian's power all those years ago!

  The medical clinic is closed for a day today, and everyone has taken their seats in the guest seat. They are all sitting together with Hua Linglong and Wu Pei, except that Wu Qingyuan and Wu Changqing have also arrived, as well as some celebrities from Jiangwan City. After all, this is the largest gathering in Jiangwan City in years, and no one wants to miss it.

  Wang Yue's hands were clasped together, and she said somewhat nervously: "That Francis and Chen Xiao are really amazing, I've heard of their names in school, and Chen Xiao is even the idol of our entire medical college, including me, I'm a fan of Chen Xiao too. Can Chu big brother win?"

  Ling Luo Creek smiled faintly and said, "Those two are just superior in that they come from a prestigious medical school. They may have some advantage on the written test, but as for the later competition, it's not necessarily true that they can surpass Chu Da Ge in terms of experience. Don't worry, this big bad egg isn't so easy to deal with!"

  Everyone was buzzing with discussion, Chu Nan and Fang Junzhou simultaneously put down the pens in their hands, then the two people looked at each other for a moment. Fang Junzhou's eyes were full of ridicule, he sneered, while Chu Nan's gaze remained calm, his eyes immediately shifted away from Fang Junzhou to Chen Xiaoxiao, who was wearing a cool outfit, and let out a whistle in admiration.

  This whistle caused the entire venue to fall silent, with everyone staring at Chu Nan in shock. Some people who didn't know Chu Nan were asking around about his identity, and under the watchful eyes of so many people, he actually had the audacity to whistle at a girl. This was probably the first time such a thing had happened in the history of the medical competition. Ling Luo Xi was furious, gritting her teeth and saying, "Just wait till tonight, I'll make him pay for this, that big pervert."

  Others who saw Zero Luo Xi's gritted teeth all shut their mouths, they had figured out after getting familiar with Zero Luo Xi that she was just a little demon girl, and avoided suffering from unnecessary disasters.

  When Wu Pei saw Chu Nan, he relied on this whistle to make everyone focus their attention on him. He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, this big brother Chu, no matter where he is, always has this sloppy attitude, even in such a grand occasion like this, he didn't take it seriously, really don't know what else can be taken seriously by him.

  Zheng Miao's face turned iron-green, gritting her teeth and saying: "This bastard!"

  Zheng Guangran looked at his daughter in surprise and asked: "What's wrong with you?"

  Zheng Miao said, "I think he's dead!" This remark caused several people around Zheng Miao to turn their heads and look at her, and Zheng Guang hastily laughed and explained that his daughter was just joking.

  Fang Junzhou's face turned iron blue, in his view, this was a provocation from Chu Nan to him, indicating that he had not taken him seriously at all. Fang Junzhou's eyes flashed with angry sparks, and he immediately clenched his fists, a fierce aura spreading out. "Chu Nan, you're simply asking for death! You're just a small-time quack doctor who deceives the world, it's time to let you see my prowess!"

  Among all the people, Chen Xiao was the most furious. Chen Xiao's personality was proud and arrogant, with countless pursuers around her, but every one of them treated her like a gentleman. No one had ever been so rude to her, even in front of her father and so many other people. Chen Xiao felt her face burning with anger as she glared at Chu Nan, wishing she could devour him with her eyes.

  Chu Nan heard the surrounding gossip and looked at Chen Xiao, who seemed to be about to swallow her whole. He couldn't help but smile wryly and quickly made an apologetic gesture towards Chen Xiao. However, this was not enough to quell Chen Xiao's anger. Chu Nan silently cursed himself, "Damn it, I'm really hopeless. Whenever I see a beautiful woman, I become arrogant and forget myself." Just then, he saw that Lingling had also arrived, and thought to himself, "I'm in trouble tonight."

  The other contestants looked up at Chu Nan for a moment after glancing at each other, and then continued to answer the questions. At this time, most of the contestants had already put down their pens, and in the entire venue, only one ordinary person, Zhang Jingran, was still sweating profusely while answering questions. Many other contestants looked at Zhang Jingran with disdain in their eyes. Fang Junzhou glanced at Zhang Jingran not far away, sneered, and whispered to himself: "With this level of ability, you also dare to come and compete, what a joke!"

  Zhang Jingran also seemed to have heard Fang Junzhou's voice, looked up at him for a moment, and then continued writing with his head down. Soon he put down his pen too, and the staff began to come over one by one to collect the papers.

  The judges were all discussing it at this time.

  "Director Chen, your daughter has been molested."

  "Haha, that young man is called Chu Nan, right? As far as I know, he's the son of Chu Changtian, who passed away at a young age back then!"

  "Lao Chen, I guess your daughter is very popular now."

  Chen Tianling sighed and said helplessly, "My daughter has always been arrogant. Coughing, she suffered a dumb loss today, but for her, the most important thing is the competition, and winning or losing in the competition is what matters most to her."

  Chen Tianling said: "It's that Zhang Jingran, I originally had high hopes for him, but he actually handed in his paper last during the written test. Although this doesn't necessarily represent his level, being last is still...".

  "There's nothing but," Zhang Shoucai said lightly, "a poor child who can't even write properly, and finally handed in a blank paper."

  As others looked at Zhang Shoucai in surprise, Zhang Shoucai said calmly: "Although I'm old, I don't have dim eyes like you. That young man's brush has been consistent from start to finish, which means he is just serious about writing and not being stumped by these questions. A young man who is so strict with his writing can't be bad at medicine, can he?"

  When Zhang Shoucai said this, everyone couldn't help but sigh in admiration. Perhaps only Mr. Zhang was so serious about it, but in fact, that's not the case. When Chu Nan looked at Zhang Jingran, a hint of a smile also appeared in his eyes... This kid is interesting...
