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 the
competition? 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?”Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org.
