Master Yu couldn’t help but take a close look at Nianyang; he’s seen a lot and could imdiately tell that Nianyang is indeed a very spirited girl.
At least she’s stronger than this self-proclaid second-generation doctor, Guan Xue. It’s just that he doesn’t know if she’s a pretty face but empty inside. Moreover, she doesn’t want to be his disciple, and he wonders if she’s just saying it to attract his attention.
Master Yu calmly spoke, "Young friend, you might not understand how much help becoming my disciple would bring you. Making such a foolish decision, you may soon regret it."
This ant that Master Yu was willing to give Nianyang another chance to decide, which made all the students very envious of Nianyang. It was such an honor for soone as prominent as Master Yu to actively offer an opportunity to a junior.
Even Guan Xue’s expression stiffened, yet she heard Nianyang’s ungrateful voice sound, "Thanks for your kindness, Master Yu, but I really have no intention of becoming a disciple."
This was a direct rejection of Master Yu, leaving him no face.
Everyone was stunned. They originally thought Nianyang was playing hard to get, but she really didn’t want to beco a disciple, which was truly incredible.
Master Yu’s expression was not good. All along, others have always begged and pleaded in front of him. For Nianyang, a little girl, to treat him with such disrespect was appalling. He snorted coldly and said,
"Director Professor, the students your school accepted this year are indeed remarkable characters!"
Director Professor was sweating; Master Yu was soone not to be offended. He quickly signaled to Nianyang, yet Nianyang completely ignored him.
Guan Xue’s eyes spun, she suddenly shouted daringly, "How audacious, you Chu Nianyang! Master Yu is one of the pillars of our National dicine, having personally published the Hundred Herbs Formula as a theoretical basis for our courses. He is the leader of our Traditional Chinese dicine. Master Yu giving you an opportunity shows he values you. Where does a girl from the countryside get the nerve to refuse Master Yu? It’s simply arrogant!"
Nianyang glanced at her, "Whether or not to beco a disciple is a personal choice. Master Yu is so famous and everyone wants to beco his disciple. I always value friendship among classmates; is it not better to leave more opportunities for you all?"
Director Professor saw Master Yu’s face turn long and quickly said, "Chu Nianyang, whether or not to beco a disciple, this research group was specifically established for the developnt of the school’s Traditional Chinese dicine departnt. As a mber of the school, you must sign up to participate and cannot defy school regulations."
As long as she doesn’t beco a disciple, anything can be discussed, so Nianyang straightforwardly agreed, causing everyone to mistakenly think she had compromised and was preparing to compete to beco Master Yu’s disciple.
Master Yu’s expression improved; now this made sense!
Guan Xue smirked with a challenging smile, since Nianyang was joining, she would really show her.
But Guan Xue quickly realized that this "her" referred to herself.
This ti, Master Yu ca over to accept disciples and select elites, having prepared thoroughly with various tools and test materials.
Everyone lined up neatly and arrived at the school’s dical laboratory where Master Yu presented three questions.
The first question, of course, involved fundantal theories of Chinese dicine, including the Thousand Gold Formula, Treatise on Cold Damage, and Compendium of Materia dica. Every key point of knowledge had to be morized without missing a word.
Those studying dicine knew that morizing Chinese dicine theories and the like was almost life-draining, so the first question directly eliminated fifteen students.
Among them, only Nianyang, Guan Xue, and Zhong Wenqing perford the best, smoothly morizing every knowledge point without pausing.
