Xiao Yifeng quickly pulled out the Silver Needle and said lightly, before turning to pay the bill and leaving the place.
The girl stared at Xiao Yifeng’s departure with a stunned expression.
"Sisi, I bought you some medicine, eat it quickly."
Soon, the boy rushed in and said to the girl.
"No need, I’m already fine. Eat quickly, after eating let’s go watch the challenge at Han Medical Hall, I really want to see that amazing Chinese youth."
The girl spoke, her eyes filled with admiration when she mentioned the Chinese youth.
"Yeah, this match is a rare sight. I have no idea who that mysterious Chinese youth is, his medical skills are so impressive, he even dared to provoke Han Medical Hall and defeated Master Liumu."
The boy’s eyes flickered as he spoke.
At this moment, at Kyoto Square, the crowd had grown larger and larger, not only Japanese but also many Chinese, all who had heard the news and come.
"That kid hasn’t arrived yet, could he be too scared to come?"
Standing to one side of the stage was a group of people from Han Medical Hall. Seeing that Xiao Yifeng had not shown up for a long time, they were all talking, while Gui Yu kept his eyes closed, showing no sign of anxiety.
Unknown to the others, Liusheng Jian, Liusheng Yiyi, and Master Asou had all appeared, naturally coming to watch the competition.
"Didn’t Brother Xiao come out early? Why hasn’t he shown up yet?"
Liusheng Jian scanned his surroundings, a puzzled look on his face.
"Brother Xiao won’t give up on the match, will he?"
Liusheng Yiyi couldn’t help but say.
"He won’t, I believe he will show up."
A profound light flashed in Master Asou’s aged eyes as he stood by.
Another ten minutes passed, and Xiao Yifeng’s figure still hadn’t appeared, and the onlookers around were discussing whether the Chinese youth was too afraid to show up.
"Humph, I think that Chinese kid is scared of the power of Han Medical Hall Successor, that’s why he doesn’t dare to show up, afraid to embarrass the Chinese!
A renowned doctor who also had a considerable reputation within the Japanese Chinese Medicine Community said with a sneer, and he spoke loudly enough for the people around to hear.
Suddenly, a mineral water bottle fell from the sky and hit him right on the head, giving the famous doctor a big bump and making him stumble backward.
The famous doctor, holding his head, angrily shouted, his eyes scanning the crowd.
"If you’re inept, then don’t blather on!"
A cold voice suddenly rose, and the crowd then saw a young man with his hands in his pockets walking out slowly, his eyes sweeping indifferently over the just-speeching famous doctor.
"Damn it, was it you who attacked me?"
The famous doctor glared at Xiao Yifeng, his face filled with livid anger.
"One more word of nonsense, and I’ll make you unable to speak."
Xiao Yifeng’s intimidating gaze swept over him before walking slowly onto the stage.
The onlookers all blinked as they saw Xiao Yifeng take the stage.
"He’s the Chinese youth who defeated Master Liumu!"
At this moment, many of the onlookers who had seen the video of Xiao Yifeng’s and Master Liumu’s competition started calling out as they saw Xiao Yifeng ascending the stage.
"Is that the young man from China?"
The esteemed physician looked up at Xiao Yifeng taking the stage, surprise flickering in his eyes.
"Brother Xiao has indeed appeared."
Liusheng Jian said, while Asou next to him revealed an intrigued expression.
As Xiao Yifeng stepped onto the stage, Gui Yu, who had been sitting in meditation, finally opened his eyes. A fleeting glance of deep and cold light flashed within them as he fixed his gaze on Xiao Yifeng.
"Are you the one who wants to challenge the Han Medical Hall Successor?"
Xiao Yifeng stood with his arms folded across his chest, wearing a playful look as he eyed Gui Yu.
Gui Yu uttered in a somber tone as he slowly stood up.
"I heard that your master, the Ghost Doctor, was defeated by a National Physician of China more than a decade ago. Are you planning to follow in your master’s footsteps, hoping to be defeated by a Chinese once again?"
Xiao Yifeng looked at Gui Yu with a cold laugh.
"You won’t have that chance. Today, I will defeat you utterly, and let you know just how worthless your Chinese medicine is. Once I defeat you,"
"I will go to China and challenge your three great National Physicians to let you Chinese know whose medical skills are superior. I will wash away the shame for my master."
Gui Yu declared coldly.
"Kid, stop dreaming. You should try beating me first before boasting, dreaming in broad daylight!"
Xiao Yifeng said with a light chuckle.
Gui Yu swept a cold glance at Xiao Yifeng, waved his hand, and soon two men escorted another figure onto the stage.
It was Master Liumu, who had lost the medical contest to Xiao Yifeng. However, he now looked disheveled, his face covered in scars and seemingly suffering from serious injuries.
Seeing Liumu appear, all the Japanese onlookers cursed angrily.
After all, not only did Liumu lose the medical contest to a Chinese, he also publicly declared that Japanese Han Medicine was a mere imitation of Chinese medicine, naturally provoking the anger and condemnation of the entire Japanese public.
It could be said that Liumu’s words had made him a criminal despised by everyone in Japan.
"Liumu, not only did you fail to maintain the face of Han Medical Hall, but you also spoke words that shamed the reputation of Japanese Han Medicine. You are a disgrace to both Han Medical Hall and the Chinese Medicine Community. Today, I will take care of you on behalf of my master, sparing you from further shame in this world!"
Gui Yu swept a cold look at Liumu, a flicker of murderous intent in his eyes. With a swift movement, he lunged forward, aiming a palm strike at Liumu, who offered no resistance and maintained a calm and indifferent expression.
A heavy thud suddenly echoed as Xiao Yifeng’s figure quickly intercepted in front of Liumu, blocking Gui Yu’s attack with his palm. Their palms collided, releasing terrible ripples of energy, and both were forced to stagger back.
Gui Yu had reached the pinnacle of the Gang Qi Realm, nearing the threshold of entering the Qi Condensation Realm, his power even surpassing that of an ordinary Great Perfection master of the Gang Qi Realm.
Seeing Xiao Yifeng intervene, Liumu wore a startled look.
"What do you mean by this?"
Gui Yu glared at Xiao Yifeng, a chill emanating from his entire being.
"He was merely fulfilling a bet; there is no need for death. Moreover, what he said was true, wasn’t it? Your so-called Han Medicine is nothing but a copy of our Chinese medicine that has evolved over time. Isn’t this precisely what you Japanese are most skilled at, copying others’ creations and then claiming them as your own goods?"
Xiao Yifeng snorted with an icy countenance, a challenging cold light flickering in his eyes.
