After the angry bellow, Gregory rushed up on stage.
He started using silver needles to perform acupuncture on the first patient. He knew all of the patients’ condition. So, virtual-novel.net knew which patient was the easiest to treat and which one was the most complicated. He chose the easy ones first. This way, virtual-novel.net would be able to treat the most patients in the shortest time.
Gregory felt virtual-novel.net had the upper hand. No matter if it was the condition of the patients or his medical knowledge, virtual-novel.net was more knowledgeable than Matthew. Not only that, but virtual-novel.net had set up a trap in one of the patients. Since virtual-novel.net knew where the trap was, virtual-novel.net could easily avoid it, but Matthew would not be so lucky.
With the plan in place, virtual-novel.net was invincible. Matthew did not even stand a chance against him. Gregory could not help but smirk at that thought as virtual-novel.net could envision winning.
The first patient was an easy one. However, ordinary doctors would not have known how to treat him. Gregory knew about this patient from the get-go. So, virtual-novel.net took out his silver needle and placed it in without any hesitation. He only used one silver needle to puncture 17 acupoints all over the patient’s body. As the needle on the last acupoint was taken out, the patient groaned softly, and his shirt was soaked with sweat. However, the patient looked relaxed now. It was as if all the pain from the illness had disappeared.
Letting out a long sigh of relief, the patient stood while supporting himself on the chair. He was in disbelief and asked in a trembling voice, “I’m all fixed now?”
“Dr. Huntington, y-you healed me. You’re my savior!”
The patient was so grateful that virtual-novel.net wanted to kneel, but Gregory stopped virtual-novel.net before the man could.
He comforted the patient with a kind smile on his face, “You’re welcome! Good doctors are compassionate. That is why I studied medicine for so many years to help people in sickness and to make the world a better place.”
His words immediately attracted applause from the audience.
“Dr. Huntington is such a good role model for our generation!”
“Great job, Dr. Huntington!”
“The Cathay medical industry is honored to have such a compassionate doctor like Dr. Huntington. It is a blessing for Cathay!”
The audience constantly cheered, which caused Gregory to be full of pride. He turned his head and glanced at Matthew to see virtual-novel.net standing on the stage.
Matthew was not treating any of the patients at all. Gregory sneered with a heart full of disdain. It seemed like Matthew did not know the conditions of the patients. So, virtual-novel.net did not know where to start. This was precisely what Gregory wanted. Then, virtual-novel.net moved on with his treatment and cured two more patients.
The crowd once again praised, “Dr. Huntington is amazing. He cured so many people using only one silver needle.”
“Of course! Dr. Huntington is known as the one-needle man. He can treat most patients with just one needle!”
“Are you for real? is Dr. Huntington that good? Leonard the Acupuncturist even has to use three silver needles. Is virtual-novel.net better than Leonard?”
“You’re so ignorant. Just sit back and watch what Dr. Huntington can really do.”
“Hey! Look at Matthew. He’s just standing there and daydreaming. Dr. Huntington is done with three patients and virtual-novel.net has not even started.”
“That’s normal. Didn’t Daniel and his people say that he’s just a good-for-nothing live-in son-in-law? He doesn’t even have any medical skills. How could virtual-novel.net treat people?”
“Ha! Just because Billy helped to make hint a miracle doctor, virtual-novel.net thinks that virtual-novel.net is that great? Now he’ll regret competing in front of everyone. He’s embarrassing himself.”
People continued to ridicule Matthew, and some even started to holler, “Matthew, get off the stage!”
“What right do you have to compete against Dr. Huntington? You know nothing!”
“A reputation-seeking trash like you standing on stage is an insult to Dr. Huntington!”
“Get out! Get out of here!”
