Chapter 524: Chapter 524: Holy Gate Thirteen Needles!

Not long later.

The news of "King of Mysterious Medicine" Vernon Steel’s defeat by the Sacred Medicine Gate’s quartet spread throughout River City’s Traditional Medicine World!

The Traditional Medicine World of River City was once again in turmoil!

Everyone was looking forward to it!

They were looking forward to "Divine Needle King" Joan Holman, "King of Hundred Herbs" Cyril Clancy, "Bone Setting King" Joseph Hans defeating the Sacred Medicine Gate’s quartet!

But, an hour later!

The news of the "Bone Setting King" Joseph Hans’ defeat by the Sacred Medicine Gate’s quartet came out!

The Traditional Medicine World of River City was in chaos, one wave had hardly leveled down when another rose!

Two hours later!

The news of "King of Hundred Herbs" Cyril Clancy’s defeat by the Sacred Medicine Gate’s quartet also came out!

The entire Traditional Medicine World of River City had been rocked to its foundations!

Everyone was increasingly devastated and despairing!

"King of Mysterious Medicine" Vernon Steel lost!

"Bone Setting King" Joseph Hans lost!

"King of Hundred Herbs" Cyril Clancy lost!

Now only the "Divine Needle King" Joan Holman of the River City’s Four Great Divine Doctors remained!

Everyone pinned their last hope on Joan Holman!

In the late afternoon.

Good Development Hall Headquarters.

The entire hall of the Good Development Hall Headquarters was filled with people.

Joan Holman was there!

Cyril Clancy, Joseph Hans, Vernon Steel were there!

The hall masters of the other twenty-four Medical Halls were also there!

Good Development Hall’s physicians, dispensers, and patients who had come for treatment all gathered in the hall.

Everyone was waiting silently, awaiting the Sacred Medicine Gate’s quartet to challenge.

The atmosphere in the entire hall was extremely repressive.

Vernon Steel sighed: "Mr. Hefner, it’s our fault that we lost to those chaps from the Sacred Medicine Gate!

This time, it all depends on you!"

Joan Holman said in a deep voice: "Don’t worry, I will surely do my best!"

Cyril Clancy fiercely said, "Mr. Hefner, you don’t know!

I was just spending a bit more time identifying two herbs!

That fella named Ichiro Fujiwara took the opportunity to surpass me, and that’s how I lost to him!"

Joseph Hans also protested: "That guy named Kamitani Hirokawa just took advantage of my old age and physical inconvenience, I lost because I couldn’t keep up with that single guy!"

Vernon Steel said: "Mr. Clancy, Mr. Harvey, however you put it, you guys indeed lost."

"Ah..."

Cyril Clancy and Joseph Hans sighed heavily.

A hall master of a medical hall said: "I have to admit, the medical skills of those four guys are extremely impressive, I really can’t compare with them!"

Another hall master of a medical hall said: "The Sacred Medicine Gate is said to be the oldest and strongest medical sect in Sakura Country!

The Sacred Medicine Gate excels in multiple fields like acupuncture, herbs, bone setting, mysterious doctor, and fire glass, and they have cultivated many talents in traditional medicine for Sakura Country!

This medical sect cannot be underestimated!"

Cyril Clancy snorted: "Would their traditional medicine have developed so quickly if they hadn’t stolen many of our medical scriptures back then?

They are a bunch of robbers, they have learned our things and are now using our things to deal with us!"

Joseph Hans grumbled: "Isn’t it, as far as I know, original versions of hundreds of our traditional medical scriptures like Tang’s Treatise on Cold Damage, Synopsis of Prescriptions of the Golden Chamber, Huffam Internal Formula, Red Crow Divine Needle Scripture, Treatise of the Great Fundamental have all ended up in their hands!"

Vernon Steel gritted his teeth: "More importantly, Sakura Country attaches great importance to traditional medicine, they start training from childhood, and their upper-level also strongly supports traditional medicine!

And us, many of our countrymen regard traditional medicine as dross, as superstition!

It’s difficult to develop when even our own countrymen do not believe in it!

Going on like this, I am really worried about our traditional medicine’s future!"

All the physicians present sighed deeply, their faces were full of melancholy and worry.

For traditional medicine to develop, relying solely on these old fellas wouldn’t work, fresh blood is needed.

At that moment.

There was a noise from outside the door.

"The people from Sacred Medicine Gate have arrived!"

Someone shouted.

Everyone looked to see Yoshida Takuma, Ichiro Fujiwara, Kamitani Hirokawa and Miura Sakurako leading a group of disciples from the Sacred Medicine Gate into the hall.

"Oh, aren’t these our defeated opponents? Perfect!

Yoshida Takuma chuckled, "Since you’re all here, it’s just perfect!

Later, we will let you witness how the ’Divine Needle King,’ Joan Holman, falls to us!"

"Insolent!"

"Utterly arrogant!"

"Doctor Holman will never lose to you!"

The crowd erupted in furious protest.

Yoshida Takuma sneered, "Instead of shouting here, let’s let our abilities do the talking!"

Joan Holman stood up and said with a resounding voice, "Let’s hear it, how do you want to compete?"

Yoshida Takuma spoke loudly, "Joan Holman, I will compete with you in acupuncture, the thing you excel in most!

Whoever can cure more patients within half an hour is the winner!"

"Good, let’s compete that way!"

Joan Holman agreed with a nod.

Yoshida Takuma continued, "Joan Holman, we need to make one thing clear. You have to sign our ’Challenge Letter’ if you lose!

So, don’t be like some people who refuse to admit defeat!"

Upon hearing this, several hall masters who had previously refused to sign were red-faced with suppressed rage.

"Rest assured, if I really lose, I will sign your ’Challenge Letter’!"

Joan Holman said solemnly, adding, "Of course, if I win, you have to destroy the ’Challenge Letter’ and apologize to all the hall masters!"

"Alright!"

Yoshida Takuma nodded in agreement.

"Then let’s start!"

Joan Holman stated resoundingly.

Cyril Clancy and Ichiro Fujiwara stepped forward, each holding a stopwatch.

After they synchronized their time.

Both of them simultaneously shouted, "Start timing!"

The moment the words fell!

Joan Holman and Yoshida Takuma both approached a patient.

Joan Holman chose an old man.

Yoshida Takuma selected a young man.

Yoshida Takuma asked the young man, "Have you been feeling dizzy and having headaches lately?"

"Yes, yes!"

The young man nodded.

A medical hall hand exclaimed, "This guy really has some skills, he diagnosed the young brother’s condition with just one look."

Another medical hall hand said, "Would he dare to challenge Doctor Holman if he didn’t have some abilities?"

Yoshida Takuma said, "This is not a big problem, it can be cured with just three needles."

With that, Yoshida Takuma opened his medicine box.

Inside was a silver needle box containing thirteen needles of different lengths and thicknesses.

Then, Yoshida Takuma took out a silver needle, mobilized his true qi, and quickly pierced one of the acupoints on the young man’s neck!

Hum!

When the silver needle pierced the acupoint, it began to quiver, emitting a dazzling purple light!

"Isn’t this the ’Set Divine Needle’ ranked fourth on the Divine Needle List?!"

Upon seeing this, Cyril Clancy couldn’t help but exclaim.

Joseph Hans frowned, "It looks like the ’Set Divine Needle’, but it’s not exactly the same. What’s going on?"

The other medical hall masters and physicians were also puzzled.

Yoshida Takuma proudly said, "The acupuncture technique I’ve learned is indeed called the ’Set Divine Needle’!

However, the founder of our Sacred Medicine Gate refined it, taking its essence and discarding its dross, making this needle technique even more perfect!

Hence, this needle technique is now beyond the ’Set Divine Needle’, and it’s known as the ’Holy Gate Thirteen Needles’!"
