Looking at the kneeling Jinling Zhao Clan mbers, Zhao Yuan scoffed, "With skill like this, you have the gall to call yourselves unparalleled masters of dical and Martial Arts Dual Cultivation? I'm embarrassed for you!"
The faces of the Jinling Zhao Clan mbers were filled with sha and resentnt, but no one dared to refute him.
How could they refute him?
In dicine, Zhao Yuan's pulse diagnosis had stunned Qiankun Zhao Yangqiu into a dazed, kneeling stupor. In prescription dicine, he had pushed the Jinling dicine King, Zhao Chengliang, to vomit blood and faint twice. And in acupuncture, he had simply scared the Jinling Zhao Clan mbers into raising the white flag and admitting defeat...
In martial arts, the Jinling Zhao Family's strongest expert, Zhao Dekui, was still unconscious, not to ntion the dozen or so Martial Artists lying on the ground, wailing and groaning.
The Jinling Zhao Family had been utterly demolished by Zhao Yuan in both dicine and martial arts. No matter how resentful or furious they felt, they had no choice but to suck it up!
In stark contrast, the people from West Hua dical University were overco with jubilation!
They won!
And it was such a stunning victory; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a clean sweep!
Before the dical competition began, not even Liu Zhu, Wang Rongfeng, and Wu Yan—who had the most faith in Zhao Yuan—had ever imagined such an outco. After all, their opponent was the Jinling Zhao Family, a clan with a legacy spanning hundreds of years and nurous famous doctors!
Liu Zhu, Wang Rongfeng, and Wu Yan, who were closest to Zhao Yuan, were the first to rush over and congratulate him.
"Third Brother, you're incredible!"
"Third Brother, that was fucking aweso!"
Imdiately after, Lin Xue, Yang Zi, and the other girls also rushed over and gave Zhao Yuan a deep hug.
The sweet fragrance of the girls instantly made Zhao Yuan blush, but he couldn't suppress a small thrill of excitent in his heart. 'Oh, so this is what girls sll like... I've learned sothing new!'
Luckily, he didn't say that out loud, or he definitely would have been ridiculed by Wu Yan.
Following them, Ma Guotao, Yang Jingbo, and the other professors from West Hua dical University joined the celebration, feeling proud and honored by Zhao Yuan's achievent. Famous dical experts like Li Heping and Qiao Zhixue also surged forward, offering their congratulations and praise.
Defeating an entire Noble dical Family single-handedly—Zhao Yuan's heroic feat today was destined to shock the dical world, even to be recorded in the annals of history for future generations to worship!
Reporters sward in, completely surrounding Zhao Yuan. All sorts of microphones and audio recorders were thrust in his face; a few were nearly shoved right into his mouth.
"Student Zhao Yuan, first of all, congratulations on defeating the Jinling Zhao Family. Could you tell us how you're feeling right now?"
"You withstood the pressure and defeated a powerful opponent when no one thought you could. What's the secret to your victory?"
"Where did you learn your dical skills? To have achieved such a superb level at such a young age, do you have so kind of special technique?"
The first few questions were fairly standard, but the reporters quickly went off the rails.
"Where did you learn all your martial arts? The Shaolin Temple or Wudang Mountain? Or maybe Mount Ei or Qingcheng?"
"What kind of Light Body Technique did you just use? How did you move so far in the blink of an eye? Was that the Wave-Riding Step? Do you have any plans to open a school and teach students in the future?"
"Zhao Yuan, do you plan to pursue dical and Martial Arts Dual Cultivation from now on? Like Hu Qingniu or Ping Yizhi?"
These questions left Zhao Yuan not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
'Shaolin and Wudang? Mount Ei and Qingcheng?'
'The Wave-Riding Step?'
'Hu Qingniu and Ping Yizhi?'
'Have these reporters been reading too many wuxia novels?'
Grumbling internally was one thing, but Zhao Yuan still had to deal with the reporters. While doing so, he quietly said to Liu Zhu, "Boss, take Wang Rongfeng and Wu Yan and keep an eye on that spoiled brat, Zhao Jingrou. Don't let her get away."
Although Liu Zhu didn't know what Zhao Yuan was planning, he didn't ask. He just nodded, pulled Wang Rongfeng and Wu Yan out of the scrum of reporters, and stood to the side. They pretended to chat, but from the corners of their eyes, they kept a tight watch on Zhao Jingrou.
Soon enough, the three of them found out why Zhao Yuan wanted them to watch Zhao Jingrou.
A group of police officers appeared at the Jinling Zhao Family's estate.
Just as people were wondering what the police were doing here, Zhao Dezhu had already realized what was happening. He hurriedly turned his head and shouted an order to the clan mbers supporting Zhao Jingrou, "Get Jingrou out of here! Quickly! Don't let the police catch her!"
The few Jinling Zhao Clan mbers tried to flee with Zhao Jingrou, but Liu Zhu, Wang Rongfeng, and Wu Yan, who had been watching them the whole ti, imdiately sward forward. These particular Zhao Clan mbers were not Martial Artists, so how could they be a match for the three of them? They were instantly knocked to the ground!
After witnessing this, the police also rushed over and handcuffed Zhao Jingrou.
Panicked, Zhao Jingrou struggled violently while yelling, "On what grounds are you handcuffing ?"
Lu Qing, looking sharp and heroic in her police uniform, strode up to Zhao Jingrou and said in a grave voice, "You are implicated in a murder-for-hire case. You need to co with us to assist in the investigation!"
Zhao Jingrou grew even more panicked and shrieked, "Murder-for-hire? I didn't do it! You're framing !"
Lu Qing shook her head. "Wu Qizheng has already been captured. He confessed and implicated you, and even provided us with a video recording. So, it would be best for you to cooperate. Haven't you heard the saying? Confess and be treated with leniency; resist and face the consequences."
It turned out that Wu Qizheng had secretly hidden a cara and recorded his entire transaction with Zhao Jingrou. He had originally planned to use the recording to blackmail another sum of money from her after the deed was done. He never expected that not only would the plot fail, but it would also be exposed.
So, after being arrested by the police, hoping to earn a reduced sentence, he handed over the secret recording, thereby sealing the case against Zhao Jingrou for murder-for-hire!
Zhao Jingrou was quickly taken away by the police.
Lu Qing walked up to Zhao Yuan and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine," Zhao Yuan said with a smile. "You guys are fast. You caught the fugitive Wu Qizheng and got the mastermind's na out of him in just one day! Impressive!"
Lu Qing replied, "This was a major case! The Provincial Public Security Departnt took it over directly and ford a joint task force with the Su Province Public Security Departnt. How could we not be fast?"
"No way! Am I that important?" Zhao Yuan was a little flattered. 'A joint operation between two provincial Public Security Departnts? That's giving a lot of face, isn't it?'
"In your dreams." Lu Qing rolled her eyes at him and said testily, "You just got lucky because of Principal Ma Guotao. West Hua dical University is a top-tier dical university in our country, and Principal Ma Guotao's administrative rank is at the bureau level, similar to a city mayor. What's more, he's a dical expert renowned both at ho and abroad, with imnse influence in academic circles. He nearly lost his life in a murder-for-hire plot. Do you think a case like that would have a small impact? How could it not be taken seriously?"
"Oh, so that's how it is." Zhao Yuan rubbed his nose and said jokingly, "Why do I suddenly feel like my pride is a little wounded?"
