Chapter 1023 - Chapter 1023 Chapter 1023 Attack as a Group

Chapter 1023: Chapter 1023: Attack as a Group Chapter 1023: Chapter 1023: Attack as a Group The host herself was a bit surprised, but she had been instructed to introduce him in this manner and could only announce what was on the conference materials.

After she announced Luo Ziling as the inheritor of the Taiyi Divine Needle, the conference hall exploded into chaos.

Many disregarded the discipline of the venue and began discussing noisily, and even the repeated gestures by the host could not calm them down.

“The inheritor of the Taiyi Divine Needle, does he dare to claim such a lofty title?”

“The real skills of the Taiyi Divine Needle are known by very few, a youngster like him understanding it? I really don’t believe it!”

“Burning Mountain Fire, Piercing Sky Cooling, those acupuncture skills require internal strength. I have been immersed in the acupuncture field for thirty years and still can’t master them. Him, a mere kid, having such capability? I don’t buy it.” This was said by an old man with a long beard, who looked to be in his sixties.

“Didn’t Sir Luo Luo Liansheng retire into seclusion? How come his grandson has suddenly appeared? I heard his son never married, where did this grandson come from? Could he be an impostor?” This was said by a woman in her forties, who had admired Luo Xusheng in the past but was heartbroken when Luo Xusheng disappeared. Today, hearing that Luo Liansheng’s grandson, who is also Luo Xusheng’s son, appeared at the scene as the inheritor of the Taiyi Divine Needle, she was naturally very surprised.

“While we have studied acupuncture skills, none of us dare to claim ourselves as the inheritor of the Taiyi Divine Needle. Such arrogance at a young age. Let him demonstrate his acupuncture skills later, and see if he’s just pretending to be capable,” said Wang Xuyun, the inheritor of the Thirteen Needles of Guimen, frustrated.

“Luo Xusheng’s grandson, haha, I really want to see what capabilities he has,” He Yan, the inheritor of the Fire Needle, echoed from beside Wang Xuyun.

Under the repeated requests from the host and several leaders, the noise in the hall finally subsided.

Luo Ziling stood there awkwardly, not expecting his entrance to cause such a commotion.

Previously, he had never claimed to be an inheritor of the Taiyi Needler, nor had he ever introduced himself in such a manner. He couldn’t understand who had labeled him as such.

Even though his grandfather had told him in private that very few truly knew the Taiyi Acupuncture Method, and he could say that their Luo Family had the most formidable acupuncture skill, fully inheriting their ancestors’ Taiyi Acupuncture Method and even developing their own innovations, completely qualifying to claim themselves as the real inheritors of the Taiyi Acupuncture Method.

But remembering the lessons of being too high-profile in the past, his grandfather had always forbidden claiming the title of inheritor of the Taiyi Acupuncture Method.

Luo Ziling knew this definitely had to be Ouyang Feifei’s doing, aiming to greatly increase his fame.

However, why hadn’t this woman consulted with him first?

Thus, he gave Ouyang Feifei, who was sitting next to him, an annoyed glare, but Ouyang Feifei returned an innocent look.

This made Luo Ziling puzzled, wondering if it wasn’t Ouyang Feifei’s manipulation.

But with no time to think about that now, seeing that the venue had quieted down, Luo Ziling bowed to everyone and said loudly, “Luo Liansheng is my grandfather, and I believe some of the medical experts present have heard of his name. My grandfather couldn’t make it due to some matters and sent me to observe your research findings. Although our Luo Family has achieved some minor success in acupuncture, many of you here are deeply immersed in the grand method of acupuncture, and I hope to have a good exchange with all the experts later.”

Luo Ziling felt that he had introduced himself as calmly and modestly as possible and had shown humility to everyone, hoping that those who were upset would calm down.

Unexpectedly, his words only further infuriated some individuals, several elderly figures stood up in public, accusing Luo Ziling of shamelessly claiming to be the heir of the Taiyi Divine Needle. Luo Ziling was taken aback, unable to anticipate that he would provoke such anger.

Luo Ziling was unaware that Luo Liansheng’s medical expertise had left a deep impression in the hearts of the older generation of traditional medicine practitioners. However, Sir Luo was stubborn and disdainful of others, and he even used his medical skills to disparage some self-proclaimed experts, thus, to the descendants of some renowned figures present today, Sir Luo was seen as an arrogant man.

Especially in the eyes of those descendants of the medical giants whom Sir Luo had humiliated, he was a person they detested.

Now, Luo Ziling, a descendant of Luo Liansheng and claiming to be the heir of the Taiyi Divine Needle, naturally angered them.

The host finally managed to calm the audience, by which time she was already sweating profusely.

After hurriedly introducing the next guests and asking the attending leaders to speak, the host then declared the opening ceremony over.

Following the conclusion of the opening ceremony, most of the leading attendees left the conference venue, and the annual discussion officially began.

The first presentation was from a leader of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Administration Bureau who reported the achievements of the traditional medicine community over the past year and would also commend some accomplished experts and scholars. This was followed by a lecture from a specialist, and after their talks, the morning sessions concluded.

But what no one expected was that just as the host announced the end of the opening ceremony, He Yan, a successor of the Fire Needle technique who had publicly expressed his dissatisfaction earlier, stood up again while the leaders had not yet left their seats and once again questioned Luo Ziling’s claim to being an heir of the Taiyi Divine Needle.

Then Dong Qichang, an inheritor of Dong’s Mysterious Acupoints, also stood up, openly challenging Luo Ziling’s claim to be the Taiyi Divine Needle heir, unless he demonstrated the acupuncture skill in public. Following that, several other influential specialists also stood up and openly expressed their dissatisfaction.

Wu Sanming, a medical expert proficient in integrating traditional Chinese and Western medicine, also voiced similar sentiments.

He said, “The genuine heir of the Taiyi Divine Needle is now unverifiable. According to ancient texts, to learn this acupuncture technique, one must possess certain internal energy, as the described techniques require manipulating needles with energy, otherwise, one cannot grasp the subtleties of the Taiyi Divine Needle. Without internal energy or knowledge of energy movements, knowing the technique alone is not enough to harness the miraculous effects of these skills. Luo Ziling is too young, even if he knows acupuncture, he cannot use it flexibly, nor can he use energy in treatment, thus unless he personally demonstrates it, I will not acknowledge that there’s an heir to the Taiyi Divine Needle who truly understands its methods.”

Those who study traditional medicine, especially the older individuals, are very arrogant, even solitary, much like the martial arts masters in novels, not recognizing the worth of others, almost having a sense of disdain for their peers.

They can hardly tolerate being overshadowed by the younger generation because traditional medicine values experience, and young individuals rarely have their days of prominence unless they grow older, gaining rich experience, and potentially achieving greatness.

Therefore, almost no one in the audience believed that Luo Ziling knew the Taiyi Acupuncture Method, nor would they tolerate him claiming to be its heir.

After vocal protests from the crowd, it was nearly a consensus that Luo Ziling should demonstrate an acupuncture skill, otherwise they would not recognize his self-proclaimed status as an heir of the Taiyi Acupuncture Method.

Some people were still highly emotional, as if Luo Ziling’s appearance had tarnished their reputation.

Two older men even ran up to Luo Ziling and pointed at his nose, scolding him.

Luo Ziling’s nose was nearly bent out of shape by their fury.
