Chapter 573
However, Jonathan was no ordinary doctor. The poison he concocted was deadly, and the toxins spread at a rapid pace. Jay did not have time to release them from Christine’s body. If the toxins had spread at a slower pace… If he had more time, he could surely find an antidote. Time passed. Only two minutes remained. The toxins in Lucas’ body were almost completely released. Color returned to his face. Seeing that Jonathan had released the toxins in Lucas’ body, Jay knew he had lost. He stood up and said, “I admit defeat. I can’t find the antidote with the amount of time I have. Give me the antidote.” If he persisted and allowed the poison to spread freely in Christine’s body, she would be in mortal danger. The crowd gasped. “Jay Fallon is admitting defeat?” “Jay Fallon, the genius doctor who had held the title of Asclepius for twenty years, is admitting defeat?” They could not believe it. They expected an evenly matched battle, not an overwhelming victory by Jonat
Chapter 574
On the stage, Jonathan looked Jay in the eye and asked, “Mr. Fallon, do you disagree with my words?” Jay frowned. His face darkened. He knew Jonathan came from Goryeo. He also knew he was once a citizen of Sol who had immigrated to Goryeo. However, he did not expect him to have such a malicious intention by joining this year’s Solean medical conference. He was beneath Jonathan in the field of concocting poison and creating antidotes. “Hey, say something. You established the Solean Doctor’s Association and believed Solean Medicine to be authentic just because you acquired some superficial knowledge originating from Goryeon Medicine. I’ll give you a chance to challenge me. If you suffer another defeat, you’ll have to dissolve the Solean Doctor’s Association or rename it the Goryeon Doctor’s Association. I hope I’m not asking for much.” Jonathan was being deliberately aggressive. “Dr. Fallon, accept his challenge.” “Solean Medicine is the cultural inheritance of Sol. We ca

“Feel free to challenge me. As long as it’s related to Goryeon Medicine, I’ll accept the challenge. If I lose, I’ll immediately apologize and leave Sol. I promise I’ll never return.” Jonathan had pushed it too far. Many were enraged. However, the doctors did not dare challenge him. After all, Jonathan had demonstrated incredible proficiency in the art of medicine. Even Dr. Fallon was no match for him. They stood no chance against him. “How about that? Scared? How difficult is it to admit that Solean Medicine originated from Goryeon Medicine? This is the truth. Why won’t you accept it? “If you’re afraid to challenge me, dissolve the Solean Doctor’s Association.” Jonathan said assertively. The chairmen of the large corporations below the stage were discussing the situation with grim expressions. The MCs were informed about this. Delilah said, “Please wait a moment, Mr. Harris. We’re discussing your proposal at the moment. We’ll get back to you in half an hour.” “Got i

Jonathan was arrogant. Not only did he challenge the top hundred doctors in Sol, he even extended the invitation to the audience of the entire country. He was trying to take on all the medical professionals of Sol on his own. “He’s too arrogant.” “Someone will have to teach him a lesson.” “Just wait till some big shot appears and beats him up. I want to see him humiliated live.” … The internet exploded with rage. “I challenge you.” An elderly man walked over to Jonathan. He was the doctor of a hospital on Medical Street. He was 70 years of age. He had been practicing medicine since his teens and had been in the field for more than 50 years. To him, Solean Medicine had widespread uses and was profound as evidenced by its history through the ages. He was not going to let a mere outsider besmirch its name like that. He got onto the stage. He was renowned on Medical Street for his incredible acupuncture technique. The first round soon began. Under the watchful g

“I-it’s nothing. Let’s eat.” James said nothing else. He grabbed the cutlery and began to dig in. He wolfed down his meal. The way he devoured his food was in stark contrast to the way he was dressed. Seeing the way he ate, Thea was reminded of her husband. The way they ate was identical. ‘Do all soldiers in the Southern Plains eat like this?’ Thea was puzzled. However, she did not mention it. She grabbed her cutlery and ate her food as well. After the meal, they returned to the General Assembly Hall on Medical Street. By the time they were back, an hour had passed. Everyone was back in their seats. They were not in the mood to eat and instead settled for some instant noodles. Some big shots did not even bother eating. They had been discussing Jonathan’s challenge for over an hour. Unfortunately, even after an hour's worth of discussion, they could not think of a way to outdo him. They stood no chance against Jonathan who was a medical savant. The challenge co

“M-Me?” Thea froze momentarily. Then, she shook her head vigorously. “N-No way. Even those renowned doctors were defeated. I don’t know anything about medicine. There’s no way I can win.” Thea was not confident at all. Although she despised Jonathan, she was powerless to do anything. James smirked confidently. “Yes, you can. Don’t worry. I’m here to help you out, after all.” Hearing this, Thea suddenly remembered. James was the Black Dragon. He was rumored to be unrivaled in the art of medicine. No one knew the extent of his medical prowess. “By the way…” She tilted her head quizically.“There are rumors that your medical skills are unrivaled. How did this rumor come to be?” James smiled. It all began many years ago when he was not yet a commander-in-chief. A big shot in the capital was seriously ill and nearing his end. James managed to save his life. That was how he rose to fame. At first, his name was only known among aristocratic circles. Following his ap

“Fine.” Jonathan proudly issued his challenge. “In that case, I’ll defeat you fair and square. What do you wish to compete in?” James said nonchalantly, “We’ll compete in whatever you’re best at.” The crowd gasped. Everyone had witnessed Jonathan’s medical skills. He was extremely proficient in all areas of medicine. Despite that, James arrogantly wanted to compete in Jonathan’s best field. “Goryeon Medicine? Utter bullsh*t! Solean Medicine is far more complex and useful. What we have mastered barely scratches the surface of Solean Medicine. Since you claim that Solean Medicine originated from Goryeon Medicine, you must have fully mastered the intricacies of the true art of medicine. I’ll defeat you fair and square in whatever you’re best at to show you how much you’ve underestimated Solean Medicine.” Hearing this, the crowd burst into cheers. “Nice one!” “Our population of 1.3 billion contains many doctors! We shouldn’t be afraid of a puny country like Goryeo!” “Th

“To ensure a fair fight and make you acknowledge that Solean Medicine is just an offshoot of Goryeon Medicine, I will leave the preparation of the herbs to Herbal Biotech.” Jonathan was self-assured. Jay knew this would be the last chance Solean Medicine had. If James was defeated, Solean Medicine would completely lose its credibility. From today onwards, the world would see Solean Medicine as inferior to Goryeon Medicine. Thus, he personally chose the herbs. He randomly chose a thousand of them. The herbs each of the participants would receive would be different. Soon, two huge boxes were lifted onto the stage. The boxes were sealed and only had a single opening just big enough for a hand to fit through it. Jay looked at James and Jonathan and said, “The herbs were chosen randomly. Each box has different herbs in it. Choose one.” James glanced at Jonathan. “You may go first.” Jonathan pointed at one of the boxes. After he chose his box, the staff separated the bo
