"Okay, okay."
Tang Ming nodded repeatedly, too eager to know the contents of that text ssage.
"Is the typing format on your phone nine-key or 26-key?"
Zhou Xiaoqian hesitated for a mont before asking.
"I use 26-key, what’s up?"
Tang Ming took out his phone, puzzled.
"Change it to nine-key and click these numbers one by one."
Zhou Xiaoqian reminded him with a hint of annoyance.
"I’ll give it a try."
Tang Ming imdiately started tapping the numbers: "I want to be with you..."
"Hmph, when translated it ans Tang Ming, I want to do it with you, now you know?"
Zhou Xiaoqian rolled her eyes at Tang Ming in mock anger.
"Is that even possible?"
Tang Ming was baffled again, "Are all the girls in this school so experienced? How are they playing with such sophisticated things? I had never even heard of this before."
"There’s no helping it; it’s just the hallmark of our school."
Zhou Xiaoqian shrugged, looking at Tang Ming with a complex expression: "Actually, I shouldn’t tell you, but I don’t want you to be so clueless. If in the future you get so bizarre thing from a girl at our school and can’t figure it out, just directly take her to a room, and you’ll succeed without fail."
"Really?"
Tang Ming started to doubt.
"What do you think?"
Zhou Xiaoqian retorted.
"Haha, there seems to be so truth in that. If they can send texts and pictures like these, they’re like a pack of wild girls."
Tang Ming laughed awkwardly and pulled Zhou Xiaoqian onto his lap: "Don’t worry! With you by my side at school, I promise I won’t get any ideas about other girls."
"I hope you keep your word, otherwise I’ll have failed Miss Liu’s request."
Zhou Xiaoqian wrapped her arms around Tang Ming’s neck and sighed helplessly.
"Co, co, let’s continue discussing dical knowledge."
Tang Ming cheerfully changed the topic.
"Where are you putting your hand, how am I supposed to discuss like this?"
Zhou Xiaoqian blushed and gave Tang Ming a chase look.
"This is called familiarizing with the human body structure, matters between n and won also fall within the scope of dicine. Let’s practice it right now."
Tang Ming got up and carried Zhou Xiaoqian to the bed.
"We haven’t turned off the lights, what if they co back?"
Zhou Xiaoqian protested.
"No worries, no worries, those guys usually don’t mind. Just close the curtains and it’ll be fine."
"You naughty big bad guy."
...
The next morning, Guo Dahai and Huang Di personally led the team, and Tang Ming and other students participating in the dical competition took the school bus to the Imperial Public Auditorium.
By this ti, the parking lot of the auditorium was already filled with school buses from various universities in Imperial City, and students participating in the dical competition gathered near their school’s bus.
"Wow, there are so many people?"
After getting off the bus, Tang Ming looked around and saw thousands of students gathered outside the auditorium.
"These are only the participants from the Imperial Capital District. Today, the preliminary round of the dical competition is being held simultaneously across all universities nationwide. If all participants were gathered together, there would be tens of thousands."
Wearing a suit, Huang Di explained with emotion.
"Since it’s a competition, there should be head-to-head matches, but this isn’t a martial arts contest. How do so many people compete against each other?"
Tang Ming furrowed his brows in confusion: "Also, this seems like a competition that would have an audience, but it seems like there are only academies here and no spectators."
"Little Tang, don’t worry, this is just the regional preliminary round of the dical competition. Simply put, it’s the internal pre-selection of the competition, so the issue of head-to-head matches won’t be involved yet."
Guo Dahai patted his stomach and explained with a smile: "According to the usual procedure, this round is still exam-based."
"What? Another exam?"
Tang Ming’s expression changed slightly, "Teacher Huang Di, you never ntioned there would be an exam before? I’m totally unprepared!"
Previously, when he was at Imperial University, he was looked down upon for cheating on exams, and now another exam was coming up. It was frustrating!
"Hahaha, Little Tang, don’t worry."
Just then, Tan Yongsheng walked over.
Since Imperial University and the dical University were the closest, their buses were parked together.
"Hello, Dean Tan!"
Guo Dahai and Huang Di quickly greeted Tan Yongsheng.
"Mm."
Tan Yongsheng nodded, looking at Tang Ming with intensity: "The dical competition’s exam is different from the school’s selection. The scope of questions is entirely within the range of dical skills, not including any knowledge outside that. Things like dical history and dical theory won’t appear, and the focus will be on assessing within the dical skills domain."
"How will the assessnt be conducted? Are there interviewers or a written test?"
Tang Ming asked Tan Yongsheng with curiosity.
"The preliminary round is purely written. For instance, in the field of Traditional Chinese dicine you registered for, the questions will describe the traits and reactions of certain symptoms, and then you will analyze the patient’s condition and provide a solution, which will earn you points."
Tan Yongsheng looked at Tang Ming with a complex expression: "It’s essentially diagnosing a patient, but in a written form because it’s impossible to find that many matching patients for all the contestants in the dical competition."
"I see, then I’m relieved."
Tang Ming sighed in relief. As long as it involved treating diseases, he wasn’t afraid. Although this competition couldn’t showcase absolute strength, he was confident.
"Then get yourself ready. When the ti cos for the head-to-head matches, I hope you can show so rcy to our dical University students, Mr. Tang."
Tan Yongsheng sighed with a hopeful request and then left.
"Everyone, keep in mind that the auditorium today only opens two entrances. Traditional Chinese dicine participants enter through entrance A, Western dicine participants enter through entrance B, and take the randomly assigned seat number at the entrance and sit down to get ready for the exam. Teacher Huang Di and I will wait for you outside, hoping you perform well."
Guo Dahai looked expectantly at the dozen or so contestants, finally resting his gaze on Tang Ming.
"If you need to use the restroom, do so now. The preliminary will last for six hours, and you cannot leave the venue midway, or it will count as a forfeit."
Huang Di quickly explained the important points, and then gave the contestants so free ti to address any issues.
As soon as they had so free ti, ng Xianjun and Hua Yingjie rushed over.
"Tang Ming, how prepared are you?"
ng Xianjun asked Tang Ming with curiosity, "Did you manage to get the questions in advance this ti?"
"I only just found out about the written test, so I haven’t prepared at all. But it seems it’s purely a dical skill assessnt, so there’s nothing much to prepare for."
Tang Ming shrugged indifferently.
"Oh man, that’s tough for . If I’d known, I shouldn’t have cheated with you before. Now, I don’t know if I can even pass the prelims."
ng Xianjun’s face fell.
"Haha, I think the school’s exams were ant to prepare us for this part of the dical competition. Plus, the school’s test covers much more than what the dical competition will, as long as you can pass the school’s test on your own, this prelim should be fine."
Hua Yingjie said with a smile, "And since it’s all about dical skills, you should be okay as long as you’re not bad at it."
