The fatty saw this scene, closed the live stream, and walked away.
He wasn't looking at his phone, but at that mont, the chat group on his phone was deadly silent. It took a good ten seconds or so before a barrage of ssages suddenly erupted.
"Damn, Zhong Yongxi is such a loser, losing to Shen Qiang and then kneeling to sing 'Conquest' is bad enough, but calling Shen Qiang 'ancestral master' on and off, what's he trying to pull off?"
"Exactly, after all, the Zhong Family is a prestigious family with a thousand-year heritage in the Huaxia Cultivation World. Losing is one thing, but shalessly trying to claim kinship with Shen Qiang? Have they gone mad? To think they have the nerve to bring up connections from twenty generations back, from hundreds of years ago."
"This seems a little odd though, logically speaking, even if Shen Qiang's acupuncture technique is better than Zhong Yongxi's, it shouldn't have co to this."
"Yeah, such a strange feeling. The fatty has gone offline, does anyone here have contacts there? Find out what exactly happened."
"I've already asked. They say that Shen Qiang won over Zhong Yongxi yesterday with the Small Leaf Plum Blossom Acupuncture Technique."
"Really?"
"Yeah, for real."
"Holy %... No wonder."
The group on the phone was fervently chatting away.
Full of curiosity about Shen Qiang.
At this mont, Ding Yuhuan, who was following behind Shen Qiang, caught up to him with eyes full of surprise, and said, "Shen Qiang, you're amazing, not only did you win, but those people from the Zhong Family dical hall actually want to be related to you, my god, what exactly did you do yesterday?"
Shen Qiang looked helpless and said, "I didn't do much, you don't need to ask, I just overestimated the Zhong Family dical hall's level."
Ding Yuhuan was astonished, "But the Zhong Family dical hall is one of the best two dical halls in Provincial City."
Shen Qiang smiled and nodded, "Yes, that's why I overestimated them."
Having said that, Shen Qiang did not bother to explain further and went straight to Director Liu's office.
At that ti, Director Liu was not in.
Geng Liang and the fatty followed closely behind.
"Impressive, Shen Qiang, to make your opponent sincerely convinced, without significantly stronger abilities it's definitely not possible, this is truly eye-opening," Geng Liang's eyes were bright.
The fatty, hearing these words, looked even more uncomfortable, and sat down beside them without a word.
At this point, a dull man and a thin, dark-skinned female doctor also arrived, they looked at Shen Qiang in surprise, clearly aware of the incident where Zhong Yongxi knelt down and sang 'Conquest'.
Then Zhong Yongxi, who was late, entered the room and imdiately bowed respectfully, "Ancestral Master."
Shen Qiang rolled his eyes at him and ignored him completely.
While others might simply be astonished or feel there was sothing odd,
Shen Qiang knew all too clearly what the Zhong Family dical hall was up to.
In the end, it ca down to two words.
Skills!
Zhong Yongxi's change in attitude, Zhong Jixiang craftily seeking kinship,
Their ultimate goal was nothing more than wanting Shen Qiang to teach Zhong Yongxi the genuine Small Leaf Plum Blossom Acupuncture Technique.
This acupuncture technique is not that special, it's just one of the seventy-two techniques intended for reference within the dical Saint Inheritance.
But why should Shen Qiang teach him?
Zhong Yongxi knelt and sang 'Conquest' because that was the bet of their duel; he knelt, he sang, it was only right and proper.
Claiming kinship is enough?
Let alone twenty generations back, when it's unclear if there's any relation at all, even if it were true, even blood brothers wouldn't necessarily share their real skills, let alone a connection that isn't even remotely related.
Thinking a few kind words would win Shen Qiang's teaching is simply a pipe dream.
So Shen Qiang completely ignored Zhong Yongxi, but to everyone's surprise, not only was Zhong Yongxi not embarrassed by Shen Qiang's indifference, his gaze beca sowhat fanatical.
This undoubtedly made the atmosphere in the office peculiar.
At this mont, Director Liu ca in.
After seating himself back at his desk, Director Liu glanced at everyone and said, "I've just co from a eting, where Director Li briefed us on the situation. As you all know, our dical University Affiliated Hospital has limited seats for departntal doctors, yet there are many renowned doctors and many capable ones."
"The fact that you were able to co here clearly ans that your dical skill has been recognized to so extent."
"According to the previous arrangent, you would need to complete a three-month probation period here before we could decide who gets to stay."
"But now, under rather awkward circumstances, to gauge your performance at work, the departnt has to specially allocate operating rooms and working ti for you, which affects the departnt's normal operations."
Everyone was stunned.
The thin, dark-skinned female doctor frowned and said, "Director Liu, what do you an by that?"
Seeing everyone's gaze fixed on him, Director Liu fell silent for a mont and then said, "To put it simply, the hospital actually doesn't lack doctors, so Director Li ans that after the end of this week's work, at least three of you will have to leave."
"What?" The thin, dark-skinned female doctor said anxiously, "One week's ti can't prove anything."
"Only one week's ti," Director Liu said. "Those who leave will still receive the full three months' probation salary. I think this decision is beneficial both for you and for the hospital."
"For the hospital, eliminating so people to get daily operations back on track is the right thing to do, and for you, if it doesn't work out here, you can save ti and try at other hospitals. After all, it's better to cut it short than to drag on for three months."
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
"Now for the new grouping, Fatty, Ding Yuhuan, you two will go to Orthopedic Surgery as a pair, sharing an office for this week. After one week, the one performing better gets to stay, the other leaves."
Ding Yuhuan was startled.
Yet, Fatty laughed.
"Zhong Yongxi and Xiao Zhou, to Plastic Surgery, Geng Liang on his own to Trauma Ergency, the remaining two automatically pair up and go to Tumor Surgery."
Having said this simply, Director Liu added, "Go on, you only have one week, cherish it."
Having said that, without regard for what everyone else thought, Director Liu turned on his computer, then poured himself so tea.
As they filed out, Ding Yuhuan looked at Shen Qiang with sowhat disappointed eyes.
"Keep your spirits up, just do your best." After a simple encouragent to Ding Yuhuan, Shen Qiang sighed as he walked toward Tumor Surgery.
In fact, with this grouping, the outco was already a foregone conclusion in Shen Qiang's eyes.
Fatty was a Cultivation practitioner from a dical Family, and Ding Yuhuan stood no chance of beating him.
Although Zhong Yongxi had lost to Shen Qiang in Acupuncture Technique, that thin, dark-skinned female doctor was certainly no match for him.
Geng Liang going alone to Trauma Ergency made it clear that he was a doctor the hospital had already decided to keep.
And the wooden male trailing behind Shen Qiang obviously couldn't defeat him, so the outco wasn't hard to guess – after a week, the four people who would definitely stay would be Shen Qiang, Zhong Yongxi, Fatty, and Geng Liang.
Geng Liang was already a shoo-in to stay.
Though Zhong Yongxi had lost in Acupuncture, it was difficult to say how things would play out in surgery, and Fatty, who also ca from a prestigious Family, was likely to have so unusual thods as well, so the pressure in the future was really quite significant.
Just as he was pondering this, his phone rang.
Shen Qiang took it out to see that Bai Jiao was calling.
"Shen Qiang, our Cheng Xinyi is planning to hold a Elixir Pills auction on Saturday. We're targeting professional buyers, so there will be many specialists coming. I'm worried that the rchandise I have won't impress them, and I wonder if you could talk to your master about getting so Spiritual dicine…"
Shen Qiang laughed. Indeed, debts at the end of the year must be paid quickly; he had just owed Bai Jiao a favor and here she was asking for Spiritual dicine.
"Spiritual dicine, eh? The Blood Lipid Bone Healing Ointnt and Jade Cream won't do, as my master said those are only for Wan Xin and Sheng, but I can talk to my master, and by then there should be other Spiritual dicines."
As he said this, a thought suddenly flashed in Shen Qiang's mind. His Cultivation had entered the Foundation Establishnt Stage, and refining high-quality Elixir Pills for his own use would definitely require more practice, but if it was just to make money, Shen Qiang could certainly start trying now.
After all, with anything, without trying, just thinking won't lead to success.
So Shen Qiang smiled and said, "You can rest assured, if there aren't any suitable Spiritual dicines by then, I will provide you with Pills."
