"We don't know? What do you mean? "
"I don't know either!"
"It is said that the Wall of Dilemma communicates with the headquarter, and the accuracy of the answer is verified by the 4-star and 5-star physicians... Does it mean that... even though Liu laoshi has given an answer, the 4-star and 5-star physicians on the other side are unable to verify it?"
"This … can't be real, right? If that's the case, wouldn't Liu laoshi's medical skills be superior to those of 5-star physicians? "
"This …"
…
Everyone stared blankly at the wall in front of them.
The words' we don't know 'made one's head spin and their vision darken.
On the other side of the Wall of Dilemma were 4-star and 5-star physicians, but they were unable to ascertain the answer.
Damn.
Liu laoshi, what kind of answer did you give? To the point where the other party didn't even have the courage to deny it? Can't I just admit it?
The corners of Physician Mu Hong's mouth twitched, and he felt as though he was about to lose his balance.
He had considered the possibility of answering incorrectly, of continuing with the five beams of orange light, but never in his wildest dreams did he expect that the answer would be … "I don't know!"
Don't know your sister!
You are all 4-star and 5-star physicians. To say such words in front of so many people... Are you for real?
"Buzz!"
Before the crazy feeling subsided, the four words on the wall slowly disappeared, and another line of words appeared.
"Give me an answer in ten days!"
Then, the words slowly dissipated.
"It seems like … they really don't know anything. I need to report this to a higher-level branch, or find a patient with myasthenia gravis for experimentation!"
Even though the Wall of Dilemma was connected to the headquarter, the headquarters was incomparably huge, and there were 8 to Nine Stars physicians stationed there. How could they possibly come into contact with a small place like Tianwu Kingdom?
Although it was called the headquarters, it was actually one level higher, or perhaps one level higher.
Back then, when Zhang Xuan requested for the Unravel Yin Pill at the Tianxuan Kingdom Apothecary Guild, he contacted the headquarters. However, when he arrived at Tianwu Kingdom, Apothecary Hong Yun was dispatched instead.
Otherwise, if all the branches of the headquarters came to consult, wouldn't they be exhausted to death?
"The answer will be given in ten days … Does this count as a pass or a failure?" Everyone was taken aback.
"Even if the answer to the last question is wrong, this Liu laoshi has solved nineteen questions perfectly, surpassing Guild Leader Mu Hong. He can be considered as... the new guild leader!"
Someone sighed.
Everyone was enlightened.
So what if the last line was wrong? His previous results were enough to completely surpass all previous guild leaders!
It could be said that he was now the new president. There was no doubt about it.
"But didn't I hear that he's here to take the physician examination? If there were no levels before, how should we evaluate them now? "
A question arose in the crowd.
Everyone was speechless.
Indeed. If he didn't possess the rank of a physician previously, how could he have resolved this situation?
To be able to solve all of the questions on the Wall of Dilemma, even forcing 4-star and 5-star physicians to admit that they were unable to do so...
His medical skills must have far exceeded 3-star or even 5-star!
But … this guild couldn't give out such a high level badge. How were they going to give out the badges?
"Don't be anxious. The answer will be out in ten days. Once the answer is out, the headquarters will definitely decide the rank personally. We don't need to think about it!"
A 2-star doctor said.
"Un!" Everyone nodded.
But then again, this wasn't something that they should be concerned about. After all, they had solved so many problems on the Wall of Dilemma, and on top of that, they had written an answer that even 4-star physicians and 5-star physicians were doubtful of. Naturally, this problem would be thrown to the headquarters.
What's the use of thinking so much?
Creak!
Just as they were discussing, the door to the Physician Hall opened and Zhang Xuan walked out.
Upon seeing so many people looking at him, he was taken aback.
"This … What's going on?"
He was just taking the physician examination, was there a need for so many people?
Scanning the surroundings, Zhang Xuan found the guard leader and Ya Rou and hurriedly walked over. "Why is this different from the examination you were talking about... Did I pass the examination?"
The two of them said that the physician examination was similar to the other occupations, requiring one to have basic knowledge in order to put it into practice. Why was it that the moment he entered, he didn't see anyone. Instead, he walked straight to a wall and had to answer questions nonstop?
It was different from what they said. Could it be that he got it wrong and was disqualified...
"Y-guild leader, you must be joking …"
The guard leader trembled uncontrollably.
"Guild leader?" Zhang Xuan was taken aback. He quickly scanned his surroundings, and just as he was about to ask, a dozen physicians dressed in long robes with emblems pinned on their chests walked over with widened strides. They clasped their fists and said, "Paying respect to Guild Leader Liu!"
"Guild Leader Liu? What do you mean by that... "Zhang Xuan was stunned.
Just because he took the physician examination, all of them addressed him as guild leader? Are you for real?
"Physician Liu has solved nineteen questions on the Wall of Dilemma consecutively and has become the new guild leader of our guild!"
Physician Mu Hong stepped forward.
"New guild leader?"
Zhang Xuan blinked his eyes.
To become the guild leader just by answering a few questions... Aren't you taking this too lightly!
Soon, after hearing the other party's explanation, Zhang Xuan came to a realization, and he was rendered speechless.
He had intended to take the physician examination, but he didn't expect that he would cause such a huge uproar and become the guild leader of the Physician Guild...
However, since it had already happened, there was no point dwelling on it. Thus, he turned to Ya Rou and asked, "Then... Since I've become the guild leader, does that mean that I'm qualified to purchase White Angelica Flower, Crimson-tailed Leaf, Wolfbane Grass...?"
"..." Ya Rou burst into tears.
She had just said that the other party wasn't qualified to purchase the medicinal herbs and failed the physician examination. Yet, not only did the other party become a physician, he even became the guild leader...
This was a slap to the face!
"Since you've become the guild leader, naturally, you're qualified to purchase the medicinal herbs. However, even though our guild has them, we don't have all of them!"
At this moment, Mu Hong finally understood the situation, and after a moment of hesitation, he explained.
Even though it was common for physicians to use poisonous herbs to treat illnesses, it was still a rare occurrence. The White Angelica Flower, Crimson-tailed Leaf, and the other medicinal herbs that the new guild leader wanted could be found. However, some of the more powerful medicinal herbs that even the guild wasn't able to provide.
"Bring all of them here first!" Zhang Xuan said.
"Un!" Mu Hong instructed. Soon, Ya Rou returned with a huge bag of medicinal herbs.
With a single glance, Zhang Xuan knew that all of the medicinal herbs he needed were here, and he was only lacking two.
"Golden Leaf Fire Root and Nine Worm Flower are lethal medicinal herbs. We don't have them here, but... the Poison Temple definitely has them!" Mu Hong said.
"Poison Temple?" Zhang Xuan shook his head.
He knew that the Poison Temple definitely had them.
However, the journey from here to the Poison Temple would take at least two to three days. A round trip would take four to five days, and this wasn't including the journey to the Red Lotus Ridge. Even if he were to purchase them, it would take at least half a month.
"Right, I heard that Mingshi Tang's Pavilion Master Jiang likes to collect rare medicinal herbs as well. Perhaps, he might be able to find these two items!"
After a moment of hesitation, Mu Hong suddenly recalled something and said.
"Pavilion Master Jiang? Alright! "
Zhang Xuan nodded his head.
It might be difficult for him to deal with others, but Pavilion Master Jiang... was his student. As long as he used the identity of this' Yang Xuan ', two medicinal herbs shouldn't be a problem.
"How much are these medicinal herbs?"
Keeping the medicinal herbs into his storage ring, Zhang Xuan asked.
"A total of 14,000,000 gold coins!" Guild Leader Mu Hong clasped his fist.
"14,000,000?" Zhang Xuan was astonished.
He thought that it would be a few hundred thousand gold coins at most. To think that it would be more than 10,000,000, this was daylight robbery...
However, he knew that since he was the guild leader, it was impossible for the other party to lie to him. Thus, he could only pass the bills over helplessly.
Even though 10,000,000 gold coins wasn't a small sum, he had earned quite a bit in Tianxuan Kingdom back then.
"I still have matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving first. Physician Mu Hong, I'll only be the guild leader in name. I'll leave the matters of the guild to you!"
Zhang Xuan had specially come here to buy medicinal herbs. Now that he had obtained the medicinal herbs, there was no need for him to stay any longer. Thus, he clasped his fist and left.
"Ah?"
They thought that the other party would immediately reorganize the guild after becoming the guild leader. Who could have known that he would turn around and leave? Everyone was taken aback.
"Farewell!"
Ignoring everyone's bewilderment, Zhang Xuan walked out with widened strides. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from everyone's sight.
He wasn't interested in becoming a guild leader. What he needed to do now was to become a 2-star master teacher and look into Empyrean Kong Shi's whereabouts to find a solution to the Innate Fetal Poison.
Compared to this, nothing else mattered.
"What happened?"
After Zhang Xuan left, everyone was still in a daze when an elder walked over with a perplexed look on his face.
"Physician Hu? You... aren't you in the Physician Hall? "Upon seeing the elder, everyone was taken aback.
Physician Hu was the person in charge of the examination in the Physician Hall. Why would he walk in from the outside?
"I just went out for a moment. What's going on?" Physician Hu had just walked in, so he didn't know what was going on. Seeing everyone gathered together, including Physician Mu Hong, he couldn't help but feel bewildered.
"I just went out for a moment..."
Everyone was speechless.
Initially, they thought that Liu laoshi had intentionally challenged the Wall of Dilemma, but upon seeing that the fellow wasn't around, they realized that... he must have accidentally barged in.
Yet, just like that, he solved all of the questions on the Wall of Dilemma...
Did he have to go so far?
"Are you saying that... in the hour that I was gone, someone barged into the Physician Hall and solved all of the questions on the Wall of Dilemma perfectly?"
Soon, Physician Hu realized what was going on, and he felt as if he was being struck by lightning.
He had only gone out for a short while, but such a thing happened. It seemed like he wouldn't be able to escape from the charge of neglecting his duties...
...
Some were overjoyed, while others were worried.
Zhang Xuan's success in challenging the Wall of Dilemma had caused a huge uproar in Tianwu Royal City.
On the other side of the Wall of Dilemma, several elders were gathered together, and they stared at one another.
"Innate Muscular Deficiency is a terminal illness. Back then, Physician Fei Qing encountered this illness, but he was unable to treat it. In the end, he could only watch helplessly as the patient passed away. For the other party to give such a result... Is it correct or incorrect? "
"This... I'm not too sure either. However, there are two ways to verify it. First, report it to the higher-ups, and second, try it on a patient with Innate Muscular Deficiency!"
"I recall that the second princess of the alliance suffers from Innate Muscular Deficiency!"
"Indeed. Prepare the carriage, we'll head to the Alliance Head Residence right now!"
The elders stood up at the same time.
