At this moment.
In a certain maritime region of the Pacific Ocean.
Seventy warships are sailing at sea.
On the leading warship.
Lionel Yeager and his companions are barbecuing on the deck.
At this time, the Blue Whale swam from the distance, opened its mouth, and spat a large pile of sea fish onto the deck.
Prajna Bates couldnāt help but say, "Blue Fatty, we have enough fish already. We donāt need any more."
Blue Fatty nodded and didnāt go for more fish. Instead, he stayed nearby.
"The fragrant grilled fish is ready! Come and get it!"
Lionel Yeager called out.
"Coming, coming!"
Prajna, Natalie Lester, and Phoebe Levin ran over.
"Brother Yeager, you come and eat too. Stop grilling!"
Earl Cobb shouted.
Bardon Bard also laughed, "Thatās right, we have enough barbecue already!"
"Alright, Iām coming."
Lionel Yeager nodded, and as he was about to go over, a call came in on his phone.
He pulled out his phone and saw that it was Joan Holman calling.
Whatās this guy doing calling him all of a sudden?
He didnāt think much of it and answered the phone.
"Elder Holman, why did you suddenly call me? Is there anything wrong?"
Lionel Yeager asked.
"Master, do you still remember the Medical Competition?"
Joan Holmanās voice came through.
"Of course, I remember."
Lionel Yeager replied, and then asked, "What about it? Is the Medical Competition about to begin?"
Joan Holman said, "Yes, it starts tomorrow.
All the major medical sects and medical groups from overseas have already arrived in Kyoto.
Didnāt you say you wanted to participate in this Medical Competition before?"
Lionel Yeager reluctantly said, "I did want to participate in the Medical Competition, but Iām still overseas right now, I probably wonāt make it back by tomorrow!"
Joan Holman said, "Master, the competition will be held for three days. As long as you can get back within those three days, itās fine."
Lionel Yeager nodded, "If it lasts for three days, then I should be able to make it back."
Joan Holman continued, "By the way, Master, ten doctors will be selected from each countryās medical sects for this competition.
We have already confirmed nine spots on our side, leaving the last spot available.
Me, Mr. Holt, and Mr. Yi have all decided to give you the tenth spot. What do you think?"
Lionel Yeager took a sip of the beer handed to him by Prajna Bates and said, "Would it be a little inappropriate?
There are only ten spots in total. If I take up one of them,
Wonāt the other medical professionals have one less chance to learn and exchange ideas with world-renowned doctors?"
Joan Holman tactfully said, "Everyone is pushing each other away, not willing to take up this spot.
Master, donāt refuse. If you donāt participate in this Medical Competition, itās a great loss."
"Alright, since thatās the case, Iāll participate in this Medical Competition.
I also want to see how strong the medical skills of overseas famed doctors are."
Lionel Yeager did not hesitate and immediately agreed.
"Good, good. With you, Master, in this competition, we are sure to win!"
Joan Holman immediately grinned and said, "Later, I will send the details and location of the competition to your mobile phone."
After chatting for a while, Lionel Yeager hung up the phone.
After putting away the phone, Lionel Yeager went to Earl Cobb and the others, continuing to eat barbecue and drink with them.
Meanwhile.
Four Seasons Hotel.
In a private room.
Since Joan Holman had just used the hands-free function,
In a private room.
It was full of people.
Present were the members of the Sakura Countryās Sacred Medicine Gate and the Kimchi Countryās Hans Medical Gate.
"Master Beiyeno, the 9th Medical Competition starts tomorrow.
Have you confirmed your Sacred Medicine Gateās participants?"
An old man in a gray suit with white-gray short hair and sharp eyes asked another old man in a black kimono.
This old man was none other than the Master of Hans Medical Gate, Vicent Chilton.
The old man in the black kimono, with white and lively eyes, was none other than Beiyeno Canghong, the Master of the Sacred Medicine Gate.
Beiyeno Canghong took a sip of coffee and replied with a smile, "Our participants have been confirmed. Mr. Chilton, thereās no need to worry."
"Oh?"
Vicent Chilton curiously asked, "I wonder which members of your Sacred Medicine Gate will be participating?"
Beiyeno Canghong replied, "I will be participating in the competition, along with my son Mark Heady and my grandson Kavin Heady. Besides the three of us, the other seven are the most outstanding disciples of our Sacred Medicine Gate."
"Mr. Chilton, hello!"
Mark Heady, Kavin Heady, and the others stood up and bowed to Vicent Chilton.
Vicent Chilton laughed, "With Master Beiyeno leading the team, Iām afraid the first place in this medical competition will once again belong to your Sacred Medicine Gate."
Beiyeno Canghong waved his hand and said, "Thatās still uncertain for now. After all, the traditional medicine of East Nation has always been a strong rival to our Sacred Medicine Gate. If we are even the slightest bit careless, we might lose the first place to them."
Vicent Chilton suggested, "Why donāt we collaborate, Master Beiyeno?"
"Collaborate?"
Beiyeno Canghong asked doubtfully, "How would you like to collaborate, Mr. Chilton?"
Vicent Chilton explained, "Our two sects can join forces to defeat the traditional medicine practitioners from the East Nation, as well as other medical sects. When the time comes, our Hans Medical Gate will willingly give up the first place to you, and we only need the second place. After all, the best result weāve had in the Medical Competition so far was the third place. So, we want to improve our ranking as well. Master Beiyeno, I think you should consider it."
After contemplating for a moment, Beiyeno Canghong put down his cup and said, "Since Mr. Chilton said so, letās cooperate."
"Great!"
Vicent Chilton was overjoyed and laughed, "Hereās to hoping that we take the first and second place in this Medical Competition in advance!"
"To a pleasant collaboration!"
Beiyeno Canghong also nodded with a smile.
