Chapter 1683: Chapter 1683: Frantic and Exasperated
The difficulty in evaluating who has a higher level of traditional dicine skills is quite substantial.
During the competition, the judges selected by both parties often disagreed on which side was superior.
However, judging the competition on acupuncture points is relatively easier.
The three acupuncture masters sent by the Huaxia side all defeated their opponents with a clear advantage.
But in the competition of diagnosis and treatnt techniques and prescription formulation, the skills displayed by our participants Guo Chuncheng and Gu Changwei were not recognized by the Korean side. Ultimately, it could only be judged as a draw.
But the fact that they were judged as a draw did not affect the final result.
In the acupuncture competition, the acupuncture skills demonstrated by the three acupuncture masters overwhelmingly defeated their opponents. Even if the other two were draws, it did not affect their results. In other words, in this competition, the Huaxia side completely defeated the renowned figures of South Korea’s traditional dicine sector.
This result turned many Korean people’s eyes green; they hadn’t expected that an action intended to gain so face would instead bring them sha. Of course, they were unwilling to admit defeat, claiming that their top traditional dicine experts had not yet taken the stage.
“I have already challenged Old Mr. Xu, and he is willing to accept the challenge,” at this mont, Luo Ziling stood up and calmly said to everyone present: “After today’s competition ends, I will attend a press conference with Old Mr. Xu to announce our competition plans to the dia.”
Luo Ziling’s words instantly surprised everyone.
Because Xu Chongzhi had not yet expressed his stance, everyone’s eyes turned towards him.
“I have accepted Mr. Luo’s challenge and am willing to compete with him in acupuncture skills. I want to see how powerful the legendary Taiyi Divine Needle acupuncture skill really is.” Xu Chongzhi stood up and, facing everyone, said in Korean, “The specific rules of the competition will also be announced at the press conference.”
Standing beside Luo Ziling, Luo Yuqing played her role for the first ti. She quickly translated Xu Chongzhi’s words to Luo Ziling. After listening, Luo Ziling simply smiled and said nothing more.
The crowd was instantly in an uproar, and all the Koreans applauded.
Most of the Koreans present were from the field of traditional dicine or related to it.
They knew the na Xu Chongzhi, whom they revered as a “dical Sage”.
They stubbornly believed that if Xu Chongzhi had taken action today, there would have been nothing left for the Huaxia people to do.
After the results of today’s competition were released, they were still blaming Xu Chongzhi for not taking action, allowing the Huaxia people to take advantage.
Upon hearing that this respected and miraculously skilled doctor was willing to accept Luo Ziling’s challenge, they imdiately cheered.
The Huaxia side was also equally excited. They cheered for today’s victory and for Luo Ziling’s courage in challenging the acknowledged leader of South Korea’s traditional dicine sector.
Subsequently, the press conference was conducted with the cooperation of officials from both sides.
Today’s competition in dical technology had actually attracted many journalists. However, they were not allowed to report on-site, and due to their own defeat, the Korean side did not reveal the results of the competition to dia reporters.
Among those present to cover the event were journalists from Huaxia, South Korea, and other countries. The Huaxia journalists were arranged by the embassy and ca from top dostic dia outlets, such as CCAV, Yanjing TV Station, and Oriental TV, among other famous channels.
Upon hearing that a press conference was to be held at the Korean dical morial Hall, dia reporters thought that today’s competition results would be announced.
They did not expect that the press conference would instead announce an upcoming important competition.
The Korean official hosting the press conference, upon announcing the situation, instantly caused a clamor of astonishnt among the journalists.
One of the Huaxia dia reporters pursued the results of today’s competition, but the Korean official ignored them.
The leader of the Huaxia delegation, Hu Wenjun, also spoke a few words but similarly did not announce today’s competition results, leaving the dia reporters disappointed.
Subsequently, Luo Ziling and Xu Chongzhi, who were to compete, were also invited to speak.
Xu Chongzhi, being Korean and the elder, spoke first.
Xu Chongzhi calmly walked to the podium, faced the journalists’ microphones, and calmly explained his thoughts.
He said that the improvent of dical technology is achieved through continuous exchanges and competitions. This ti, the highest academic level traditional dicine delegation from Huaxia ca to Korea for a visit. On behalf of the traditional dicine community, he welcod them. A genius traditional dicine expert in the Huaxia delegation, Luo Ziling, challenged him, and he gladly accepted the challenge. He told the journalists and others that winning or losing is not the most important; the key is that the process of the competition can showcase exquisite skills, providing everyone with an opportunity to learn. The most important goal is to improve together.
Xu Chongzhi’s speech earned a round of applause, and the personnel from the Huaxia side also applauded his well-mannered speech.
Xu Chongzhi then announced the content of his competition with Luo Ziling, which was to compete in acupuncture skills, using a blind needling thod.
The object of needling would be the acupuncture bronze man that the Xu family had preserved for hundreds of years.
Many of the dia reporters were hearing the term “blind needling” for the first ti.
After Xu Chongzhi’s explanation, they learned that blind needling ans needling while the practitioner’s eyes are covered, relying entirely on mory and sensation to perform the acupuncture.
Due to a lack of understanding of acupuncture techniques, the dia reporters were filled with curiosity about this and many raised their hands to ask questions, all related to blind needling. Xu Chongzhi also gave explanations, saying that those skilled in acupuncture techniques can accurately needle acupuncture points without having to look.
However, soone from the Huaxia side imdiately stood up to oppose, saying that the acupuncture bronze man belongs to the Xu family, and the Xu family has practiced countless tis, making them very familiar with the structure of the bronze man. Therefore, blind needling competition is unfair to Luo Ziling.
But Luo Ziling wasn’t concerned about this. He imdiately stood up to express his thoughts.
Xu Chongzhi took the opportunity to leave the podium and return to his seat.
“Actually, one thing that everyone hasn’t paid attention to is that the acupuncture bronze man just ntioned by Old Mr. Xu was originally a national treasure of Huaxia. There was a pair; one ended up in Liaodong and was acquired by the ancestors of the Xu family, who took great care of it, allowing its preservation to this day.”
Luo Ziling’s words greatly astonished Gu Jian’an and Gu Changwei, the grandfather and grandson pair.
They once possessed an acupuncture bronze man, but it was taken by Luo Ziling after they lost to him. Although Gu Jian’an was extrely regretful, there was nothing he could do. Unexpectedly, the Xu family from South Korea also had a bronze man, which shocked them.
The historical records state that there was originally a pair of acupuncture bronze n, and they assud the other one must have been destroyed, yet it had now resurfaced. But the event that surprised them even more followed—Luo Ziling told everyone that his wager with Xu Chongzhi in the competition was that acupuncture bronze man.
“If Old Mr. Xu loses, this acupuncture bronze man will be transferred to as a wager. If I lose, I will teach him the Taiyi Divine Needle acupuncture skill and give him an extrely precious prescription.”
The mont Luo Ziling finished speaking, the room erupted.
