"So, our school and that Longn Continent school are still old rivals?" Lin Tian asked.
Zhao Xuefeng waved his hand and said, "You can't say that. We're all studying dicine, so there's no such thing as enemies or not enemies. It's just that their actions are too disgraceful, claiming our ancestors' legacy as their own. It's not us who've picked a fight with them, but it's them who want to fight with us."
The history of ancient dicine can be traced back to the Yellow Emperor era. It's safe to say that as many years of history as the Celestial Dragon Continent has, ancient dicine has just as many years.
There have been countless outstanding predecessors, such as Shennong, Hua Tuo, and Li Shizhen—every one of them is well-known, every one of them unforgettable.
Now, there's another country forcing these onto themselves.
This feeling is like having your treasure stolen; it doesn't sit well emotionally.
What Zhao Xuefeng is angry about is not Liu Mang betraying his ancestors for glory, but the shalessness of Longn Continent.
"I rember when I was in school, students from that school ca to ours for exchanges. There was one nad Hua Dongxu, very skilled, and I heard he's already beco a teacher at that school. He might follow them on this visit, right?" Zhao Qingtang said.
Zhao Xuefeng nodded, "I have an impression of him. His dical skills were so high that he suffocated our entire faculty single-handedly. I rember he once pursued you, didn't he?"
"Grandpa!" Zhao Qingtang raised her voice slightly, "It's not appropriate to talk about that now."
After saying this, she glanced cautiously at Lin Tian beside her, her deanor wary as if feeling guilty about stealing.
If Lin Tian didn't notice her little gesture, then all the Golden Elixir Cultivation he'd practiced would be for nothing.
"Is that Hua Dongxu guy handso?" Lin Tian asked with a smile.
Zhao Qingtang didn't reply, but Zhao Xuefeng laughed, "Not as handso as you."
"Not as handso as ? If he could be compared to , he must be quite handso." Lin Tian laughed.
Zhao Qingtang glared at him angrily, "Your face is really thick."
Lin Tian continued to smile, "Hehe, too bad he's a Longn Continent villain."
Zhao Xuefeng nodded, "Yeah, if he were a Celestial Dragon Continent person, he'd be qualified to be my grandson-in-law."
Zhao Qingtang is a female PhD, a leader among the young generation in ancient dicine. She has her pride, but she also has her vulnerability.
That is, at such an age, she still hasn't had a boyfriend.
If she were ugly, she'd accept it, but coincidentally, she is as beautiful as a fairy. The worst part is being teased by her grandpa and a guy.
Liou Qingcheng covered her mouth and giggled. She could tell that Lin Tian, this mischievous person, was bullying soone again.
Liou Qingcheng said, "Does Liu Mang dare to co back? Doesn't he know that he's almost a rat crossing the street here?"
"Well, he's brought it on himself. In a foreign land, how could he be so free? He used to be our school's dean. Sending him for this student exchange is perfectly appropriate. Do those Longn Continent villains care about his feelings?" Zhao Qingtang said.
"There's nothing wrong with the exchange, just hoping there won't be any trouble this ti."
Soon, dinner ti arrived. Zhao was in a good mood today, not for anything else, but because Lin Tian and Liou Qingcheng ca to visit this old man.
So, Zhao took out a bottle of Moutai he's been keeping for years.
At the dinner table, they didn't talk about anything else, just chatted about family matters, so everyone drank happily.
The al lasted for two hours before Lin Tian and Liou Qingcheng bid farewell and left.
In Kanyue City, in a star-rated hotel.
This star-rated hotel has been reserved, and the residents are all teachers and students from the H Country dical College.
They are the most outstanding representatives of the dical college, or they wouldn't have been sent to the Celestial Dragon Continent.
Thud~
A thick folder was placed on a pear wood table, and Liu Mang patted the docunts, saying, "Teachers, all the materials are here."
The stack of docunts was half a ter high, just like exam review materials.
"So thick?" A teacher from H Country shouted from the sofa, "Isn't this too exaggerated?"
Though the speaker was from H Country, his Celestial Dragon Continent language was very standard and fluent, good enough to be a radio host. If he didn't disclose his origins, no one would know he's from H Country; after all, everyone is of the yellow race.
Liu Mang gently tapped the stack of docunts a few tis, shaking his head, "Definitely not exaggerated! Have you heard of Zhao Xuefeng, Han Xiao, Zong Zifu?"
At the sound of these nas, everyone's expression turned noticeably more serious.
These nas are prestigious in the Celestial Dragon Continent and well-known in H Country's dical circles.
The reason is simple; they've read and studied these people's papers and discussions, which have helped them to varying degrees.
"You've only heard of these people, but they're just the tip of the iceberg of talent in the Celestial Dragon Continent," Liu Mang said. "I'm not bragging, but the Celestial Dragon Continent is vast and resourceful, full of talented residents, not just these. There are many other masters of ancient dicine who are very low-key but incredibly skilled."
"Are their materials in here too?" asked a woman in her thirties with glasses, a well-known teacher from H Country dical College.
Liu Mang raked through the sparse remaining hair on his Waihai City head, nodding, "Yes, they're all here. In total, there are 183 relatively famous ancient dicine practitioners in the Celestial Dragon Continent. In this stack of docunts, besides their basic information and hobbies, there's the field they're proficient in and many essential consultation records, prescriptions, and a lot for you to review."
The teachers from H Country sitting on the sofa started clenching their fists, their expressions turning even more serious.
This is a daunting mission.
At that mont, a young man dressed in an elegant tailcoat, with an oval face and a deanor of honesty, walked to the stack of docunts.
This young man wore glasses and looked scholarly. Standing by the stack, he didn't need to pose; he was the image of a teacher.
Liu Mang wisely moved two steps aside, yielding the central position.
Liu Mang was previously an expert at flattery and bootlicking, so he fully understood his situation and rank.
When it was ti to be humble, he'd bury himself in the ground. When it was ti to comply, he'd act like a puppy, wagging his tail.
He thought this was sowhat humiliating, but it wasn't sothing just anyone could do. Like King Goujian bearing bitterness, like a hidden dragon in deep waters.
Liu Mang believed that if he just endured this phase, his status would undergo a transformative shift.
Although the external evaluation of himself wasn't great, it was undeniable he was skilled, and his dical proficiency was definitely top-tier in the Celestial Dragon Continent!
A talent like this, having landed in a tiny place like H Country, rising above and succeeding wasn't simple; it was effortless.
Of course, this was all Liu Mang's plan, or perhaps his fantasy, whether it would co true was still uncertain.
