524: Chapter 524: Holy Gate Thirteen Needles!
Not long later.
The news of “King of Mysterious dicine” Vernon Steel’s defeat by the Sacred dicine Gate’s quartet spread throughout River City’s Traditional dicine World!
The Traditional dicine World of River City was once again in turmoil!
Everyone was looking forward to it!
They were looking forward to “Divine Needle King” Joan Holman, “King of Hundred Herbs” Cyril Clancy, “Bone Setting King” Joseph Hans defeating the Sacred dicine Gate’s quartet!
But, an hour later!
The news of the “Bone Setting King” Joseph Hans’ defeat by the Sacred dicine Gate’s quartet ca out!
The Traditional dicine World of River City was in chaos, one wave had hardly leveled down when another rose!
Two hours later!
The news of “King of Hundred Herbs” Cyril Clancy’s defeat by the Sacred dicine Gate’s quartet also ca out!
The entire Traditional dicine World of River City had been rocked to its foundations!
Everyone was increasingly devastated and despairing!
“King of Mysterious dicine” Vernon Steel lost!
“Bone Setting King” Joseph Hans lost!
“King of Hundred Herbs” Cyril Clancy lost!
Now only the “Divine Needle King” Joan Holman of the River City’s Four Great Divine Doctors remained!
Everyone pinned their last hope on Joan Holman!
In the late afternoon.
Good Developnt Hall Headquarters.
The entire hall of the Good Developnt Hall Headquarters was filled with people.
Joan Holman was there!
Cyril Clancy, Joseph Hans, Vernon Steel were there!
The hall masters of the other twenty-four dical Halls were also there!
Good Developnt Hall’s physicians, dispensers, and patients who had co for treatnt all gathered in the hall.
Everyone was waiting silently, awaiting the Sacred dicine Gate’s quartet to challenge.
The atmosphere in the entire hall was extrely repressive.
Vernon Steel sighed: “Mr.
Hefner, it’s our fault that we lost to those chaps from the Sacred dicine Gate!
This ti, it all depends on you!”
Joan Holman said in a deep voice: “Don’t worry, I will surely do my best!”
Cyril Clancy fiercely said, “Mr.
Hefner, you don’t know!
I was just spending a bit more ti identifying two herbs!
That fella nad Ichiro Fujiwara took the opportunity to surpass , and that’s how I lost to him!”
Joseph Hans also protested: “That guy nad Kamitani Hirokawa just took advantage of my old age and physical inconvenience, I lost because I couldn’t keep up with that single guy!”
Vernon Steel said: “Mr.
Clancy, Mr.
Harvey, however you put it, you guys indeed lost.”
“Ah…”
Cyril Clancy and Joseph Hans sighed heavily.
A hall master of a dical hall said: “I have to admit, the dical skills of those four guys are extrely impressive, I really can’t compare with them!”
Another hall master of a dical hall said: “The Sacred dicine Gate is said to be the oldest and strongest dical sect in Sakura Country!
The Sacred dicine Gate excels in multiple fields like acupuncture, herbs, bone setting, mysterious doctor, and fire glass, and they have cultivated many talents in traditional dicine for Sakura Country!
This dical sect cannot be underestimated!”
Cyril Clancy snorted: “Would their traditional dicine have developed so quickly if they hadn’t stolen many of our dical scriptures back then?
They are a bunch of robbers, they have learned our things and are now using our things to deal with us!”
Joseph Hans grumbled: “Isn’t it, as far as I know, original versions of hundreds of our traditional dical scriptures like Tang’s Treatise on Cold Damage, Synopsis of Prescriptions of the Golden Chamber, Huffam Internal Formula, Red Crow Divine Needle Scripture, Treatise of the Great Fundantal have all ended up in their hands!”
Vernon Steel gritted his teeth: “More importantly, Sakura Country attaches great importance to traditional dicine, they start training from childhood, and their upper-level also strongly supports traditional dicine!
And us, many of our countryn regard traditional dicine as dross, as superstition!
It’s difficult to develop when even our own countryn do not believe in it!
Going on like this, I am really worried about our traditional dicine’s future!”
All the physicians present sighed deeply, their faces were full of lancholy and worry.
For traditional dicine to develop, relying solely on these old fellas wouldn’t work, fresh blood is needed.
At that mont.
There was a noise from outside the door.
“The people from Sacred dicine Gate have arrived!”
Soone shouted.
Everyone looked to see Yoshida Takuma, Ichiro Fujiwara, Kamitani Hirokawa and Miura Sakurako leading a group of disciples from the Sacred dicine Gate into the hall.
“Oh, aren’t these our defeated opponents?
Perfect!
Yoshida Takuma chuckled, “Since you’re all here, it’s just perfect!
Later, we will let you witness how the ‘Divine Needle King,’ Joan Holman, falls to us!”
“Insolent!”
“Utterly arrogant!”
“Doctor Holman will never lose to you!”
The crowd erupted in furious protest.
Yoshida Takuma sneered, “Instead of shouting here, let’s let our abilities do the talking!”
Joan Holman stood up and said with a resounding voice, “Let’s hear it, how do you want to compete?”
Yoshida Takuma spoke loudly, “Joan Holman, I will compete with you in acupuncture, the thing you excel in most!
Whoever can cure more patients within half an hour is the winner!”
“Good, let’s compete that way!”
Joan Holman agreed with a nod.
Yoshida Takuma continued, “Joan Holman, we need to make one thing clear.
You have to sign our ‘Challenge Letter’ if you lose!
So, don’t be like so people who refuse to admit defeat!”
Upon hearing this, several hall masters who had previously refused to sign were red-faced with suppressed rage.
“Rest assured, if I really lose, I will sign your ‘Challenge Letter’!”
Joan Holman said solemnly, adding, “Of course, if I win, you have to destroy the ‘Challenge Letter’ and apologize to all the hall masters!”
“Alright!”
Yoshida Takuma nodded in agreent.
“Then let’s start!”
Joan Holman stated resoundingly.
Cyril Clancy and Ichiro Fujiwara stepped forward, each holding a stopwatch.
After they synchronized their ti.
Both of them simultaneously shouted, “Start timing!”
The mont the words fell!
Joan Holman and Yoshida Takuma both approached a patient.
Joan Holman chose an old man.
Yoshida Takuma selected a young man.
Yoshida Takuma asked the young man, “Have you been feeling dizzy and having headaches lately?”
“Yes, yes!”
The young man nodded.
A dical hall hand exclaid, “This guy really has so skills, he diagnosed the young brother’s condition with just one look.”
Another dical hall hand said, “Would he dare to challenge Doctor Holman if he didn’t have so abilities?”
Yoshida Takuma said, “This is not a big problem, it can be cured with just three needles.”
With that, Yoshida Takuma opened his dicine box.
Inside was a silver needle box containing thirteen needles of different lengths and thicknesses.
Then, Yoshida Takuma took out a silver needle, mobilized his true qi, and quickly pierced one of the acupoints on the young man’s neck!
Hum!
When the silver needle pierced the acupoint, it began to quiver, emitting a dazzling purple light!
“Isn’t this the ‘Set Divine Needle’ ranked fourth on the Divine Needle List?!”
Upon seeing this, Cyril Clancy couldn’t help but exclaim.
Joseph Hans frowned, “It looks like the ‘Set Divine Needle’, but it’s not exactly the sa.
What’s going on?”
The other dical hall masters and physicians were also puzzled.
Yoshida Takuma proudly said, “The acupuncture technique I’ve learned is indeed called the ‘Set Divine Needle’!
However, the founder of our Sacred dicine Gate refined it, taking its essence and discarding its dross, making this needle technique even more perfect!
Hence, this needle technique is now beyond the ‘Set Divine Needle’, and it’s known as the ‘Holy Gate Thirteen Needles’!”
