Chapter 249
The crowd started to gasp, "My goodness! It seems like we''ve got our priorities wrong! How could we
neglect the wisdom of our ancestors and learn something else from abroad!"
"You''re right! What were we thinking by looking down on traditional medicine?! What a waste of God''s
gifts!"
Kingsley shook his head slowly as he said, "Don''t belittle yourself, and neither should you be arrogant!
No matter which type of medicine you''re practicing, they''re each good in their own ways, just as long as
you''re willing to ept that practitioners of different medical fields are masters in their own ways!"
"Yes, you''re right, Dr. Nicholson!" Everyone nodded their heads in agreement. "From now on, we won''t
look down on the traditional medicine of Qustia anymore!"
"Exactly! I must also educate my children about our traditions from an early age. That way, we would
never lose our historical heritage!"
All of them had totally caved to his skills; they both admired Kingsley as well as traditional medicine!
Meanwhile, the wrinkled faces of Scott and the others flushed with excitement when they heard their
passionate exmations.
After this, their development would be even smoother when so many people had epted traditional
medicine, and all this was thanks to Kingsley''s efforts!
Scott scoffed as he red at the old men who had doubted Kingsley prior to his demonstration, "All of
you are such muddleheads! I think you should retire early!"
"Mr. Rand…"
In that instant, the faces of the gray-haired old masters turned ashen because the older a person was
in the traditional medicine world, the more popr they were. There was no such thing as retirement,
and by saying that, Scott was clearly trying to kick them out of the main traditional medicine circle of
Cleapolis!
At the same time, another person in the room had a face paler than them—Liam yton! His view of
the world and life had received a significant blow, and his mind was in a whirl, unable toprehend
anything else.
"P-Professor yton… What are we going to do?" Mateo stammered, feeling as though his tongue had
turned stiff. "It seems like this chap r-really has some skills. Have we met our match?"
Liam sighed as he answered, "It was really beyond my imagination that the traditional medicine of
Qustia could be so miraculous… If there''s no other way, we''ll have to return to Mittera…"
Kingsley sneered upon hearing Liam''s mutterings, "Professor yton, aren''t you the one who was
insulting the traditional medicine of Qustia earlier by calling it trash? Why do you want to run back to
Mittera now?" Without waiting for Liam''s answer, he added, "Our duel isn''t over yet, and you want to
escape halfway? There isn''t such a bed of roses in this world!"
His words sent everyone gawking and tongue-tied as they wondered, I-Is there a need to carry on with
thepetition? Liam is already fleeing in helter-skelter, and he will just be needlessly humiliated if this
duel continues!
However, it was obvious that Kingsley didn''t n to let him off. "Professor yton, if you don''t dare to
continue with the duel, kneel before our traditional medicine masters and bow down ten times to each
of them. If you do that, I''ll allow you to return to Mittera. But, of course, out of the Qustian traditional
virtue of respecting the old and loving the young, you may ask your favorite student to bow down on
your behalf. I won''t mind if you choose to do so."
Everyone inhaled sharply when they heard his bold deration. Clearly, he didn''t n to leave a way
out for Liam.
In other words, if any mention of admitting defeat came out of Liam today, one of them would be utterly
disgraced in this medical conference. In addition, even if Mateo really bowed down on his behalf, Liam
would most likely not have the nerve to practice in the medical field anymore.
Through this conference, the people started feeling more awe for Kingsley when they looked at him.
This young man looked like a pretty boy and appeared nonchnt, but in fact, he was ruthless and
brilliant, definitely not a soft-hearted and average joe!
"Bowing down ten times to each person…" Liam''s head was spinning, and his legs couldn''t carry his
weight anymore as he swayed. Finally, he took a deep breath as he recollected himself and
stammered, "B-But… you already cured Mateo. How are we going to continue with the duel after this?"
"Easy, we''llpete against time!" Kingsley said. "If you can cure a vegetative person within ten
minutes, it''s considered your win!"
"But… where are we going to find aatose patient…" At the mention of this, Liam''s heart
shuddered. "C-Could it be…"
At this point, everyone else in the room had realized what was happening, and suddenly, a look of
disbelief with a mix of pity appeared on their faces.
"N-No, it can''t be… It can''t be what I think it is…"
"Oh my… Isn''t this too cruel?"

Only Mateo was the slowest to catch up, and a dazed look shed across his eyes as he eximed,
"What? I-It can''t be me again… can it?"
A smile spread across Kingsley''s face as though he was the devil himself traipsing earth on a whim.
"You''re doing a favor for your teacher! Do you wish to see your teacher kneel and apologize to others?"
