Chapter 537: Lin Shen!

The students below were shocked, astonished?!

Many people's pens in their hands went "pa-da" and fell to the ground.

"What? Professor Lin is actually the genius Academic God from back then?!"

Chu Yuwei was as if struck by lightning, trembling as she sprang up from her chair.

The genius girl staggered back two steps, pointing at Lin Yuan, her lips trembling as she couldn't speak: "You… you are…"

She simply could not connect the young visiting lecturer before her with the legendary Academic God who had shaken the medical world ten years ago.

The members of the Fudan team also all stood up, the pride and doubt on their faces instantly replaced by shock.

Yu Shanfeng adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses that had slipped to the tip of his nose, stared fixedly at Lin Yuan, his eyes full of disbelief…

The students of Zhijiang University were completely in an uproar!

The students were shocked, unable to believe it!

So it turns out! Their Chinese medicine Professor Lin is actually the Academic God of Chinese medicine from back then?!

This way, everything makes sense!

Why is Professor Lin's medical skill so superb?

Because Professor Lin is the genius Academic God!

Why can Professor Lin solve the super medical problem from ten years ago?

Because Professor Lin is none other than the one who set the problem!!

The problem-setter solved his own problem?

That makes perfect sense!!

Inside the lecture hall, countless Zhijiang University students were in an uproar!

Even a few male students in the back rows excitedly stood on their chairs, waving their fists and shouting "Lin Shen!"

From Academic God to Lin Shen!

Lin Yuan today, finally his identity was revealed!

The students of Zhijiang University never imagined that the part-time lecturer who gave them basic Chinese medicine lessons every day was actually the legendary genius Academic God who had shaken the medical world ten years ago!

After the shock, even more is an indescribable pride!

Many students had red rims around their eyes, clapping vigorously, their palms turning red without even noticing.

Unlike the students' shock, the teachers of Zhijiang University's School of Medicine… had on their faces a relief that had long been anticipated.

Several elderly professors with white hair exchanged a smile, their eyes full of emotion…

They actually had long known Lin Yuan's identity.

But forced by Lin Yuan's request to keep a low profile and conceal his identity, they dared not reveal it.

And at this moment, Luo Renhai on stage was also overcome with excitement.

Dean Luo Renhai clenched his fists tightly with both hands.

He looked at Lin Yuan surrounded by the crowd, his eye sockets red.

Over these years, Zhijiang University's School of Medicine… has gradually declined, repeatedly looked down upon by peers.

Dean Luo Renhai endured enormous pressure, persisting in establishing the "Chinese Medicine Innovation Class," just waiting for the day Lin Yuan would be willing to reveal his identity.

Now that the Academic God has returned, he seems to already see the dawn of Zhijiang University's School of Medicine regaining its glory!

Dean Luo Renhai can even foresee… the future where Chinese medicine blossoms in brilliance on the global medical stage.

"Our Zhijiang's spring has truly arrived!" Luo Renhai murmured, his voice choked with emotion.

Yu Shanfeng staggered… over to Luo Renhai and grabbed his arm.

Yu Shanfeng's tone was shocked, unable to believe as he asked: "Dean Luo, this… this is real? Professor Lin… he… he really is that anonymous Academic God from ten years ago?"

Yu Shanfeng has devoted many years to medical education; back then he personally led a team researching the century problem proposed by Lin Yuan.

Therefore, Yu Shanfeng has a deep understanding of that "anonymous Academic God".

Moreover, Yu Shanfeng greatly admires that genius Academic God.

Luo Renhai, upon hearing this, snorted coldly: "Nonsense! Could it be fake? Ten years ago, Lin Yuan, as a student of Zhijiang University, proposed that problem! Back then… the key research project of the National Health Commission was centered around his initial idea! Lin Yuan is precisely that anonymous Academic God from ten years ago!"

Hearing this, Yu Shanfeng was shocked again!

Yu Shanfeng hurried to Lin Yuan's front, looking at him in disbelief.

Yu Shanfeng's voice trembled slightly as he said, "Professor Lin, you… you really are the Academic God who proposed ten years ago the 'Meridian-Chemotherapy Integration' problem? That anonymous researcher who shook the entire Chinese and Western medical worlds?"

Yu Shanfeng's voice, through the microphone… spread throughout the hall.

The previously noisy lecture hall instantly fell silent.

Everyone's gaze focused on Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan lightly nodded: "When I proposed the problem ten years ago, I was indeed an undergraduate at Zhijiang University."

"Boom!" This sentence exploded like a thunderclap.

Yu Shanfeng abruptly stepped back one step; if not for Chu Yuwei behind him promptly supporting him, he would have nearly collapsed on the spot.

He adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses that had slipped to the tip of his nose, taking three deep breaths before barely calming his emotions.

Immediately, Yu Shanfeng seemed to recall something, his eyes narrowing: "Forgive my frankness, mere words without proof. Back then, that Academic God left three 'academic ciphers' in the problem's appendix that only the researcher himself could understand, each corresponding to one of three unknown characteristics of meridian conduction. If you can explain them clearly, then I will be fully convinced."

As soon as he said that, Luo Renhai furrowed his brows.

He only knew Lin Yuan was the problem-setter, but had never heard of any 'academic cipher'.

Chu Yuwei also instantly felt energized, staring fixedly at Lin Yuan; this was her last hope.

She very much hoped that Lin Yuan was a fake Academic God.

Because she did not want to lose!

The experts from the Fudan team all the more stepped forward, taking out paper and pen to prepare notes, the air filled with a tense atmosphere.

"The first code is 'the resonance window between Ziwu flow and the cell division cycle.'" Lin Yuan's expression remained calm, as if he were describing something utterly ordinary.

The body's meridians are most vigorous with qi and blood at Zi hour (23:00-1:00), and the peak division of lung cancer cells occurs exactly 40 minutes after this period; this time difference is the optimal therapeutic window, which can increase drug utilization by 67%.

Yu Shanfeng's pupils contracted—shocked and horrified!

Back then, the problem Lin Yuan left behind had been specially studied by Yu Shanfeng. Therefore, he discovered the academic code hidden in this problem.

As it turned out, who would have thought Lin Yuan actually solved it?

"The second code is 'the correspondence between the monarch-minister-assistant-courier relationship in traditional Chinese medicine and the signaling pathways of cancer cells.'"

Lin Yuan continued:

The monarch drug must target the cancer cells' PI3K signaling pathway to expel evil; the minister drug must activate the NF-κB pathway in immune cells to support righteousness; the assistant-courier drug must block the interfering factor between the two, and the dosage ratio of the three must be precisely 1.2:0.8:0.3 to form a closed-loop effect.

A pharmacologist from Fudan suddenly stood up, shouting excitedly: "We just validated the rationality of this dosage ratio in experiments last year, but we never knew the principle—yet you already gave the answer!"

Lin Yuan paused not, his gaze sweeping the hall: "The third code is 'the threshold balance between acupuncture stimulation intensity and neurotransmitter release.' At a stimulation depth of 0.3 cun, the released acetylcholine can inhibit cancer cell proliferation; exceeding 0.5 cun activates the sympathetic nervous system, instead promoting spread, so the error of this critical value must be controlled within 0.02 cun."

As his words fell, Yu Shanfeng's pen dropped from his hand to the floor, disbelief etched on his face.

Could it be that he truly is the Academic God?

Immediately afterward, Yu Shanfeng seemed to have opened a floodgate, throwing out one specialized medical problem after another.

These problems… each one is a 'hard nut' in the field of integrated Chinese and Western medicine.

Yet Lin Yuan remained calm and composed, at times citing theories from Chinese medical classics, at times combining them with the latest research data from modern medicine, answering each one in turn.

Each of Lin Yuan's answers… was logically rigorous and substantiated with solid evidence.

He even proposed several entirely new research directions.

Fudan's medical experts took turns stepping forward…

Fudan's teachers, from cell biology to clinical pharmacology, from molecular biology to medical device development, all kinds of body temperature.

Their questions covered multiple subfields.

Lin Yuan single-handedly faced the entire expert panel, yet handled it with ease, remaining calm and composed.

His answers not only resolved everyone's years-long confusion, but often a single sentence enlightened the listeners, causing the audience to intermittently burst out with exclamations of 'Now I understand!'

When Lin Yuan finished answering the last question, Yu Shanfeng finally had nothing to say.

He could be one hundred percent certain that Lin Yuan is the Academic God.

Lin Yuan's scholarly attainment is terrifyingly high!

Yu Shanfeng, the vice dean of Fudan University, also took a deep breath.

Afterward, Yu Shanfeng walked onto the stage.

Yu Shanfeng picked up the microphone and loudly announced to the whole audience: "After several rounds of academic sparring, I, on behalf of Fudan Medical School, solemnly declare…… In this contest, we, Fudan University, admit defeat! Lin Academic God's scholarly attainment and clinical strength have made us deeply aware of our own biases and shortcomings!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the audience below—an uproar!

That was, a complete uproar!

Countless students of Zhijiang University erupted!

Lin Yuan, is the Academic God!

Professor Lin God, one person, defeated the entire Fudan University medical team!

This scene, exhilarating!

Countless male and female students boiled over with shouts!

"Academic God! Academic God!!"

"Lin God! Lin God!!"

The students initially shouted 'Academic God'.

Gradually, they changed their address for Lin Yuan to 'Lin God!'

Academic God, is now a thing of the past.

Representing Zhijiang University's glory ten years ago.

But now, Lin God has returned!

Now Zhijiang University's new glory will be created by 'Lin God'!

Even many senior professors and teachers from Zhijiang University in the audience joined in, shouting the slogan 'Lin God!'

Luo Renhai was also extremely excited, clenching his fists and shouting together with the students below, 'Lin God! Lin God!!'

Luo Renhai, this old dean, was also extremely excited at this moment!

At this moment, countless excited students grabbed their phones to take photos and videos.

The students wildly spread this news!

In Zhijiang University's student groups, campus groups, these news and videos almost spread everywhere!

In the blink of an eye, all the students knew that Lin Yuan was the Academic God!

The whole school erupted!

The Academic God of those years has returned!

The Academic God has become Teacher Lin, who has always been teaching the Chinese medicine course!

At this time, in the lecture hall.

Yu Shanfeng's expression was complex; he turned to face Lin Yuan and suddenly nodded solemnly.

"Professor Lin Academic God, thank you for giving us a vivid lesson! Also thank you for letting us Western medical practitioners recognize our own shortcomings, and for revealing the vast profundity of traditional Chinese medicine!"

"After this exchange, upon returning, Fudan University will reorganize a traditional Chinese medicine research team based on your theory to carry out integrated Chinese-Western medical research. We also earnestly request that you spare time to come lecture at Fudan and guide our research."

Yu Shanfeng even changed his form of address toward Lin Yuan.

From 'you' to 'you (honorific)'!

The teachers and students of the Fudan team all rose to their feet, giving Lin Yuan a warm round of applause!

In this applause, there was no longer the initial contempt and provocation, only sincere awe and admiration.

Before academia, there are no enemies.

Whoever is strong earns respect.

Chu Yuwei stood in the crowd, her exquisite face deathly pale.

Her former stubbornness and unwillingness to accept defeat had long vanished, leaving only deep shame.

She finally understood that the gap between her and Lin Yuan was as vast as heaven and earth.

Chu Yuwei took a deep breath.

She bit her lip and slowly walked up to Lin Yuan.

Chu Yuwei suddenly bowed, and this scene startled everyone.

Even the faculty and student teams of Fudan University were startled??,

This??

Looking across all of Jiangnan, there is hardly anyone who could make Fudan University's genius girl voluntarily bow!

This genius girl, Chu Yuwei, is so arrogant.

But today, the genius girl actually bowed?

Genius girl Chu Yuwei bit her lip and softly said, "Lin Laoshi, sorry. I shouldn't have looked down on traditional Chinese medicine, nor doubted your academic ability; I apologize for my ignorance and arrogance."

She lifted her head, in her beautiful eyes bearing responsibility, "I know my previous behavior was excessive, but I truly want to learn your TCM theory. So I am willing to fulfill my promise, I am willing to be your student."

These words caused an uproar throughout the hall!

Lin Yuan looked at her remorseful eyes, but gently shook his head: "No need."

Lin Yuan's tone was calm, and he directly refused.

This left Chu Yuwei stunned?

She arrogantly lifted her little head, her beautiful eyes dazedly staring at Lin Yuan.

"Why?" she asked.

Lin Yuan replied, "Your personality is too sharp, eager for quick success, while TCM emphasizes 'calm mind and settled breath'; such a temperament is not suited to studying TCM."

Lin Yuan paused, his gaze sweeping over her white lab coat, "Moreover, although TCM and Western medicine ultimately aim to heal and save lives, their theoretical systems and treatment approaches are entirely different—different paths do not conspire. You have great talent in the Western medicine field; focus on your Western medicine research, and you can likewise achieve success."

These words left everyone stunned.

Lin Yuan thus, on the spot, rejected the genius girl Chu Yuwei?

I go.

The research teams of Fudan University all froze in expression…
