I agree to the Medical Competition with you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Taisui truly had the demeanor of a great master, and in fact, his agreement to the Medical Competition with Lin Dong, whether he won or lost, was a thankless task for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he won, as a senior, it was expected by others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he lost, it would greatly affect his reputation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nevertheless, he was willing to give Lin Dong, the young man, an opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With such magnanimity, he was truly worthy of his title as the top Chinese medicine practitioner in Dragon Country.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grandpa, Lin Dong isn’t qualified to compete with you in a Medical Competition!” Wang Xiuxin was the first one to speak up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His grandpa was someone he always aspired to surpass in the field of medicine, a god-like figure in his eyes. In his view, Lin Dong, a junior, didn’t deserve to be compared with his grandpa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other Chinese Medicine Practitioners of the Northern Faction also began to speak out at that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Wang, please think again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whether we win or lose this Medical Competition, it’s not good for our Northern Faction.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If we win, others will say that we bullied the weaker, that the victory was without honor. If we lose, you’ll become… their stepping stone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone advised against it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although they thought it was improbable for Old Wang to lose, winning wasn’t significant either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So they still advised Wang Taisui not to compete in this Medical Competition with Lin Dong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Wang Taisui had already made up his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve already agreed. This Medical Competition might seem meaningless to you, but to me, it has great significance!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If I win, then it’s just a small setback for him, and I hope he will continue to strive and surpass me soon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If I lose, then it means that Dragon Country Chinese Medicine has been fortunate to see the rise of an exceptional genius, a fortunate event for our medicine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, win or lose, it’s all good!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, everyone felt ashamed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Lin Dong was no exception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the true demeanor of a great doctor, which commanded immense respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cough cough…” At this moment, Lin Dong cleared his throat and said, “Old Wang, there’s one more thing I’d like to add a small bet to. How about it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Old Wang was also slightly taken aback, then couldn’t help but laughingly say, “Interesting, what kind of bet would you like to add?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve heard that Old Wang has a piece of dragon’s saliva that’s several hundred years old. If by some chance I win against Old Wang, could you give me that piece of dragon’s saliva?” Lin Dong said, his face not turning red and his heart not skipping a beat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Xiuxin, Li Yanran, and Lin Tiance, who were all listening to these words, nearly coughed up blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yanran secretly said to herself, “This Lin Dong, his skin is really thick. Old Wang generously offered him an opportunity for a Medical Competition, and he actually has set his sights on that piece of dragon’s saliva in his possession.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Tiance couldn’t help but speak up, “Old Wang, that’s not acceptable! Don’t agree, wasn’t that dragon’s saliva promised to me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Taisui frowned slightly at Lin Tiance, saying displeasingly, “Young man of the Lin family, when did I ever say that I must give you this piece of dragon’s saliva?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This…” Lin Tiance was stunned; Old Wang had indeed never said such a thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But…but given the relationship between their two families? Plus, Old Wang brought that piece of dragon’s saliva all this way, wasn’t it meant for him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Wang spoke sternly, “Young man of the Lin family, this piece of dragon’s saliva is mine, and how I dispose of it is not your business to direct.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, Old Wang was a bit angry because of what Lin Tiance just said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Tiance realized he had misspoken and promptly apologized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Wang ignored him and instead turned his head to Lin Dong and counter-asked, “If I lose, giving you the dragon’s saliva is no problem. But what if you lose? What then?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you think, Old Wang?” Lin Dong counter-asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha…” Wang Taisui laughed and said, “If you lose, join our Northern Faction, how about that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as this was said, the Southern Faction Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners were panicked, their faces turning dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yanran was also stunned for a moment. What was happening? Why was Old Wang behaving somewhat…somewhat shamelessly like Lin Dong?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was he really openly poaching in front of Southern Faction Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and a crowd of Southerners?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is this how things are done?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Five Elders of Southern Faction quickly gave Lin Dong a hint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lin Dong pretended not to see it, clearing his throat and saying:“Okay!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He agreed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the Southern Faction Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners were even more anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Medicine King couldn’t help but speak out, “Leader Lin, you are a Southerner, you must not join the Northern Faction!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Needle King also said, “Leader Lin, let this old man take your place in the Medical Competition?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were having regrets about agreeing to let Lin Dong participate in this Medical Competition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they really made the bet and lost, it would be a huge loss for their Southern Faction Traditional Chinese Medicine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would indeed be losing the wife and the soldiers!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had finally seen the rise of a Traditional Chinese Medicine genius like Lin Dong, a leader among them; if he lost to the Northern Faction, they would indeed be sick to their stomachs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Lin Dong turned to them and laughingly said, “Don’t worry, everyone, I might not necessarily lose this Medical Competition!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, he turned to Wang Taisui and said, “Then it’s decided so cheerfully; can we start the Medical Competition now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Wang Taisui saw that Lin Dong had truly agreed, even he couldn’t contain a smile at the corner of his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good, good, good. Young people should be as confident as you are.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To encourage you, in this Medical Competition, I shall give it my all!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Wang Taisui say this, the Southern Faction Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners twitched at the corners of their mouths.\u003C\u002Fp>",1085,"2026-06-06T01:28:03.115Z",1,"novelbin.me","a02b74dc9f12e06211bbe9e81b420f98a61345719b734ce3fca85c97a5a81a87","urban-divine-doctor-descends-the-mountain-chapter-349","urban-divine-doctor-descends-the-mountain-chapter-347",2938,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-divine-doctor-descends-the-mountain-cover.jpg"]
