Female Novel
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 Jonathan.
After Jay admitted defeat, the staff backstage immediately made their way over to him with the sealed
antidote.
After Christine consumed the antidote, Jay took her pulse and used acupuncture and acupoint
treatment to completely cleanse her body of the toxins.
Soon, Christine regained consciousness.
“Grandpa…”
She spoke feebly.
Jay lightly waved.
Looking at Jonathan, he extended his arm and said, “I’m thoroughly impressed by your skills. I’ve lost.
The competition rules of this year’s Solean medical conference will be…”
Jonathan raised his hand and interrupted him.
At that moment, his humility was gone. He grew arrogant. With a smug look, he snickered, “Mr. Fallon, I
disagree with your words. What do you mean by the Solean medical conference? What even is Solean
medicine?”
“Huh?”
Jay frowned.
Looking at the cameras, Jonathan declared, “Actually, I’m not a citizen of Sol. I’m from Goryeo. There
are mainly two branches of medicine in the contemporary medical world. One is Westphalian Medicine,
which is based primarily on contemporary medical science. The other is Goryeon Medicine, which is a
combination of medicinal herbs, acupuncture, acupoint treatments, and the like.”
“Goryeon Medicine has been passed down for thousands of years. Back then, my ancestors came to
Sol and introduced Goryeon Medicine to the populace. And so, Goryeon Medicine has since spread far
and wide in Sol and has been the predominant branch of medicine ever since.”
“I’m here today to prove the authenticity of my country’s medicine. I want to let the world know the
truth.”
Jonathan uttered word by word.novelbin
“Bullsh*t!”
“Solean Medicine has been passed down for thousands of years. Your country wasn’t even around
when Solean Medicine was invented!”
“Prove the authenticity of Goryeon Medicine? What a bold claim!”
Enraged, a few Solean doctors persecuted him.
Faced with their remarks, Jonathan remained composed. He looked at the crowd and the cameras and
said, “I speak the truth. Countless therapeutic approaches are recorded in the traditional Solean
Medicine classics. However, since my ancestors did not spread their knowledge, they have become
long-lost techniques in Sol. In my country, however, they are extremely common.”
“Next, I will declare the competition rules of this year’s medical competition.”
“The top hundred doctors will challenge me one by one. If you lose, you must acknowledge that Solean
Medicine originates from Goryeon Medicine and is only a branch of it.”
“If you can defeat me, I will retract my words,” Jonathan said.
Lastly, with a scornful look, he stared at Jay and said, “Mr. Fallon, I’ll give you another chance. If you
win, I’ll return to Goryeo immediately. If you lose, you have to acknowledge what you’re currently
practicing is Goryeon Medicine. Not only that, you will have to dissolve the Solean Doctor’s Association
or rename it the Goryeon Doctor’s Association. You will also lose the right to be the chairman of the
Goryeon Doctor’s Association. After all, it’s only natural for the rightful heir of Goryeon Medicine to be
the chairman.”
Hearing this, the crowd was enraged.
James squinted his eyes and gave a slight smile. “So, this is what they were up to. They’re trying to get
rid of Solean Medicine. They were worried that my appearance would make things difficult for them.
That’s why they tried to prevent me from participating.”
