Chapter 498: Chapter 498: Qi-Guided Needle, Teacher Pu Is Quite Something

The online sentiment took a complete 180-degree turn!

[SOB SOB SOB... I was wrong about Cheng Wangzhen! I can’t believe I just suspected Cheng Wangzhen of cheating! I deserve to be drawn and quartered!]

[Dr. Park just wrote a simple prescription, but Cheng Wangzhen’s prescription was about human nature and the complexities of life! The difference in skill is as clear as day!]

[Cheng Wangzhen is so damn good! His realm of understanding has surpassed the profession of a doctor! He’s practically a life coach!]

...

It was no exaggeration to say that Cheng Yuan had taught a lesson to every Divine Doctor present!

This was especially true for Park Hao, the man at the center of it all. He had been thoroughly schooled.

Park Hao was shocked beyond words!

’His opponent is just a young man in his early twenties,’ he thought. ’Where did he get so much life experience? The guy is a monster!’

Park Hao knew he had lost, and lost miserably.

This was no longer about a gap in medical skill, but a gap in one’s understanding of life itself.

Divine Doctor Xue was so moved he was on the verge of tears!

He knew it!

He knew Divine Doctor Cheng wouldn’t cheat!

He knew Divine Doctor Cheng wouldn’t lose!

Divine Doctor Xue finally let out a long-held breath of frustration, speaking with a sense of vindicated pride, "Based on Patient Number Six’s choice! This round should go to Divine Doctor Cheng!!"

Hearing Divine Doctor Xue’s words, the other Divine Doctors chimed in to support him.

"Hahaha, Divine Doctor Cheng won the prescription round too! Dr. Park, you should just admit defeat! Don’t bother struggling!"

Park Hao opened his mouth but couldn’t bring himself to say anything in rebuttal. Most of his confidence had been shattered by Cheng Yuan.

’If you’re outmatched in medical skill, you can work hard to improve,’ he thought. ’But how do you make up for a gap in worldly wisdom and perspective?’

Cui Youzhe was Park Hao’s most loyal supporter. He couldn’t just stand by and watch Park Hao concede! Besides, Park Hao represented the honor of Korean Medicine!

Park Hao absolutely could not lose!

Cui Youzhe announced loudly, "If I recall correctly, Divine Doctor Xue has already declared the results of the second round! The score is now 1-1!"

Divine Doctor Xue retorted, "The only reason we announced Dr. Park’s victory earlier was because we didn’t understand the full situation!"

Cui Youzhe shot back, "Failing to understand the situation is your responsibility! The results of the competition cannot be changed!"

"Why can’t the results be changed? If you find a mistake, you should correct it in a timely manner, shouldn’t you?"

Cui Youzhe snorted coldly. "If a woman goes to a hospital for an abortion, and she regrets it afterward, can you put the fetus back inside her?"

"This..."

Cheng Yuan waved his hand dismissively, stopping the argument.

"Divine Doctor Xue, there’s no need to argue with him. Based purely on the prescriptions, Dr. Park’s was indeed better. Mine was just more suited to the patient’s actual circumstances. Let’s just call it 1-1. There’s still one round left, anyway!"

Seeing Cheng Yuan’s overwhelming confidence, Divine Doctor Xue’s heart instantly settled back into his chest.

’It’s a classic case of the eunuchs panicking while the emperor is calm!’

’There’s still another round. With Divine Doctor Cheng’s Acupuncture Technique, he can definitely crush Park Hao!’

Jiang Daoyue was infected by Cheng Yuan’s confidence and announced in a deep voice, "Since Divine Doctor Cheng has spoken! We will consider the score 1-1. We will now proceed to the final event—a competition of Acupuncture Technique! Divine Doctor Pu, please select a patient first."

Park Hao was extremely confident in his Acupuncture Technique and casually pointed to a patient.

"This patient will do."

The chosen patient was Patient Number Nine, named Zhang Dakuan.

Zhang Dakuan had overexerted himself while working, causing a lumbar disc herniation.

Zhang Dakuan had already been to an orthopedic hospital to have the bone set, but for some unknown reason, his back had been hurting for over two months, and he couldn’t exert any strength at all.

Having witnessed what happened with Liu Bin earlier, Zhang Dakuan looked at Cheng Yuan with an expectant expression.

"Divine Doctor Cheng, can you give me a dose of strong medicine too? So I can recover quickly like Brother Liu. I can’t afford to rest any longer!"

Cheng Yuan replied in a gentle voice, "Don’t you worry, my friend. I’ll make sure you can get back to work as soon as possible. However, according to the competition rules, Dr. Park will be the first to perform the acupuncture."

"Oh, okay, sure."

Zhang Dakuan turned his head to Park Hao. "Divine Doctor Pu, I’m ready. Hurry up with your needles, so I can go find Divine Doctor Cheng when you’re done."

PFFT...

Park Hao nearly coughed up blood!

The Dragon Country netizens were dying of laughter.

[Oh my god! This Brother Zhang is so adorable!]

[Can someone please calculate the extent of Park Hao’s psychological trauma right now?!]

...

It had to be said, Park Hao’s professionalism was top-notch. Even though Zhang Dakuan’s words had almost made him lose his composure, he instantly calmed down the moment he entered a state of treatment.

"Mr. Zhang, please take off your shirt and lie face down on the treatment bed."

"Oh, okay."

Zhang Dakuan took off his shirt, lay down on the treatment bed, and asked with some nervousness, "Divine Doctor Pu, does it hurt when you insert the needles? Will you need to use anesthesia?"

Park Hao replied with great confidence, "Mr. Zhang, don’t be nervous. It will feel lighter than a mosquito bite."

As he spoke, Park Hao took out a needle case. He gently brushed his fingers across the Silver Needles, and in that process, infused his body’s True Essence into them!

"Rise!!"

Park Hao let out a sharp cry and pointed a finger.

BUZZ!!

A Silver Needle flew out of the needle case, followed the direction of Park Hao’s finger, and accurately pierced the Sanjiao Shu Point!

Because the Silver Needle contained a trace of residual True Essence, the tail of the needle vibrated continuously.

The Silver Needle kept lifting and twisting as if someone were controlling it.

Under the Silver Needle’s stimulation, a faint, warm current was generated at the Sanjiao Shu Point. Zhang Dakuan felt the pain in his lower back lessen slightly, and the pained expression on his face eased.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

Park Hao inserted more than ten needles in a row!

More than ten warm currents converged, and the pain in Zhang Dakuan’s lower back almost completely vanished, replaced by a tingling, numb sensation that was quite comfortable.

A look of enjoyment appeared on Zhang Dakuan’s face.

All the Divine Doctors revealed expressions of admiration!

They applauded and cheered one after another!

Even Divine Doctor Xue, who had lost to Park Hao before, applauded him sincerely!

Because this was the Qi-Guided Needle technique!

It could practically be considered the highest level of acupuncture skill in the modern Medical Dao world!

"Just for this display of the Qi-Guided Needle technique, our loss wasn’t unjust! Dr. Park is truly worthy of the title ’Han Medical Needle Saint’!"

"The Qi-Guided Needle technique is too incredible. Its stimulating effect on acupoints is several times more powerful than ordinary acupuncture techniques!"

This wasn’t the first time the netizens from Country H had seen the master skill of Qi-Guided Needle, but every time they saw it, they felt like they were witnessing a miracle!

[Teacher Pu’s Qi-Guided Needle is too powerful! How can Cheng Wangzhen possibly win? He should just hurry up and join our Country H and become Teacher Pu’s disciple! Maybe if Teacher Pu is in a good mood, he’ll give him a few pointers.]

[Teacher Pu’s Qi-Guided Needle is magic! It’s a miracle! This proves that our Korean Medicine is the one true orthodox lineage!]

The Dragon Country netizens grew nervous again. This Teacher Pu really had some skills. Could Cheng Wangzhen really overcome the Qi-Guided Needle technique?

Park Hao looked at Cheng Yuan with extreme confidence. "Dr. Cheng, I have finished my treatment. Patient Number Nine can get off the bed now and live his life normally. In one week, he will be able to engage in physical labor! Now it’s your turn to pick a patient!"

Cheng Yuan shook his head lightly. "I don’t need to pick a patient. I’ll take Patient Number Nine."
