Chapter 183
However, she resolutely chose modern medicine. It was after a lengthy standoff with her parents and
fighting for the opportunity through hunger strikes and other means. She had applied for modern
medicine because she wanted to be a doctor like Jonathan Woods.
When she saw Gwen Raven, she came over happily to greet her. Her admiration was evident. It was
because, as she said, she envied and admired all who seeded in modern medicine. She had only
studied modern medicine for a year.
She was very aware that with her capability, she was not qualified to be a member of the debate team.
She had only burnt a lot of money because she wanted to experience it. She wanted to improve herself
through modern medicine. Now, the idol she admired the most was actually a traditional medicine
practitioner.
Why did she feel like her head was buzzing? It only took a moment for her to figure it out. She didn’t
care. Even if Jonathan Woods was the traditional medicine’s leading debater, she still admired him!
Gwen saw that Mina was not in a good mood. She smiled and changed the topic. “I don’t know if
Jonathan Woods used traditional or modern medicine to treat the olddy. In short, in half an hour, the
olddy was full of vigor. However, it’s possible that this woman cured her.” *Absolutely impossible! It
was definitely Jonathan Woods who treated him.” Mina said.
She had been studying modern medicine for an entire year but had only scratched the surface. How
could such a young woman master something as mysterious as traditional medicine? “If it’s Jonathan,
then he’s doting on Abbie. They are just god siblings.” Gwen said. Mina fell silent.
Gwen could see that she was speechless. Wasn’t she usually abrupt? Why was she suddenly not
talking? Who was she pretending to be deep for? She really hated this kind of sudden silence. Because
if she didn’t speak, she wouldn’t know what she was thinking.
“He treats everyone very well!” Mina suddenly said. Gwen looked at Mina in surprise. Mina asked, “Is
this woman a debater? I want to meet her.” Gwen was pleased. “Yes, she’s a debater.” She had been
waiting for this response. It was great to have such a hothead p Annalise Barton in the face.
When this kind of loony took action, it was the feeling of beating someone to death on impulse. This
was because hotheads did not think before they spoke or acted. They relied on their mood. As long as
they were unhappy, they would fight to the death. How would they know how to weigh the pros and
cons? “That’s great!” Mina assumed Annalise was about her age or younger than her. She felt that
tomorrow’s debate would be very exciting!
She would not lose in debate. Although she had studied modern medicine for a year, she was just a
rookie to most with extensive medical skills. However, she had learned a lot of theoretical knowledge.
If she won against Abbie, would she be able to acknowledge Jonathan as her master? However, if she
really had the chance to acknowledge him as her master, would she still be studying modern medicine?
No, wait.
“I have to win the opportunity first!” She thought to herself. *111 go say hello to her!” she said. Gwen
immediately stopped her. “Don’t. You’ll know each other during the debate tomorrow.”
She was afraid that this hothead would embarrass Annalise Barton now and end it with a few words.
There would be no more scenes tomorrow. Such a good show would have to be performed at a formal
asion, like tomorrow’s debate. The debate tomorrow would be broadcasted live.
Mina nced in the direction of Annalise and said, “You are right. She seems to be in a rtionship. I’ll
greet her during the debate tomorrow. Gwen, if there’s nothing else today. I’ll leave. I’m sleepy from my
jetg.” “Alright, see you tomorrow!” Gwen smiled and bid Mina farewell.” There would be a good show
tomorrow. How thrilling! Mina looked around and left when she did not see Jonathan Woods. The next
day.
The arena for the debate was set up, and there was a stage. The exhibition center on the sixth floor
was filled with people. The floors were crowded. The security guards did their best to maintain order,
afraid someone would fall down the stairs if they were not careful.
They were constantly reminding people watching the debate, “Don’t push. Move a little, don’t push!
Everyone can view the big screen! It’s the same as watching the debate onstage”
On the stage on the first floor, the traditional and modern medicine debate teams were already in
position. There were ten people on each side. The two sides sat opposite each other, with five judges
sitting in the middle.
The host started to introduce the participants. When the host introduced Annalise Barton, he said,
“Member 6 of the Traditional Medicine team, Annalise Barton. She is from Horington.” That was it.
Gwen felt extremely disdainful. After all, the rest of the debaters’ introduction included which medical
schools they came from, which field they specialized in, and how many years they had been studying
or practicing medicine. Of course, Annalise’s introduction was simple. It was not the host’s fault. She
did not have any information to provide. After the host’s introduction, the debate officially began.
The judges gave the debate topic: “Do you think traditional medicine is better than modern medicine?
Why?” This was a tant theme for a heated debate, but since it was a debate, it had to be an
opposing theme. Once they got the theme of the debate, the two sides began to debate. The modern
medicine team was first, and Gwen was the speaker, but the first speaker offered for her to debate first.
Gwen began to describe the advantages of modern medicine. “I think the development of modern
medicine is the most significant breakthrough and made leaps in improving human medical history.
Modern medicine can heal almost all diseases. The greatest advantage of modern medicine is
eliminating the disease’s source. Take tumors as an example. Once modern medicine discovers a
tumor, it can remove cancerous cells. After removing it, radiation chemotherapy is used to suppress the
growth of malignant cells.

“In modern medicine, many tumors are removed with simple surgeries. Although surgery, can be
painful for a few days, the patient would be up and about after a few days. “This is absolutely
impossible in traditional medicine.
The efficacy of traditional medicine is so slow that the patient almost has to rely on self-healing.
“Traditional medicine is fine for treating minor colds but ispletely helpless against diseases like
tumors. “This is also the fundamental reason traditional medicine is gradually declining.”
After Gwen had finished speaking, the modern medicine debaters apuded. When it was the
traditional medicine team’s turn to debate, Gwen thought Jonathan would send Annalise. In the end,
Jonathan sent someone else to start first on the defense.
Annalise leaned back in her chair leisurely the entire time. Mina had been observing Annalise’s
expression. When she saw Annalise leaning against the chair, she felt highly ufortable. She felt
that Annalise was very arrogant! How could she be so smug when she was sitting beside Jonathan?
She did not respect her master at all.
The traditional medicine team’s debater stated the advantages of traditional medicine and how it
treated the symptoms and strengthened the body. Compared to modern medicine’s treatment directly
of the specific sick anatomy, traditional medicine paid more attention to the holistic treatment of the
entire-human body, thus eliminating the root cause. The traditional medicine practitioner emphasized
the integration of the harmony of Yin and Yang and the solution to the root of the problem.
Traditional medicine believed that a person’s internal body system must have problems if they had
external illnesses. For example, if they had high blood pressure, traditional medicine thought that the
root cause was a mixture of problems with the heart, liver, spleen, and lungs, so a holistic approach to
the entire system was adopted instead of relying on antihypertensive drugs to treat the specific
problem.
