“So, Dr. Edel, shall we compete?” Thomas asked with a smile.
Edel, visibly sweating, remained silent.
The crowd around them didn’t care much about the subtleties. They saw a twist in the tale and thought the drama unfolding was quite enthralling.
In a moment.
“Compete.”
“Compete.”
“Compete.”
The onlookers started to chant and shout.
Ava’s face turned from green to white in quick succession.
She had rallied this crowd with the hope of pressuring Eason to change
doctors.
But now…
The crowd had turned the tables, putting her and Edel in a decidedly tricky situation.
After all….
Edel’s guilty demeanor had pretty much given the game away.
Could it be that Thomas was, by some incredible coincidence, the legendary Medical Mystic?
The noise of the crowd grew louder and louder.
With a slightly pale face, Ava asked in a low voice, “How confident are you?”
Dr. Edel’s sweating seemed to intensify.
Having dared to impersonate the Medical Mystic, he naturally had some knowledge of medicine.
Indeed, his skills were actually quite impressive.
Among doctors overseas, he was known for his expertise in traditional medicine.
But the catch was…
He had never faced a true master.
Traditional medicine is a bit of an enigma. Despite similar learning methods and content, it’s often the practitioners from countries righ in the medical culture who reach the pinnacle of this art.

Chapter 390
While Edel could claim the title of king in the realm of traditional medicine abroad, in countries steeped in medical culture, he would pale in comparison.
Edel took a deep breath and slowly said, “Although I have some understanding of traditional medicine, my primary approach to treatment is modern medicine. Traditional medicine is just an adjunct for me. And to some extent, traditional medicine is… pseudoscience.”
Edel, in his attempt to wriggle out of the challenge, had put his foot in his mouth.
Ava’s face changed instantly.
Had Edel lost his mind?
Did he realize where he was?
How dare he make such a statement?
“Edel!” Ava sharply interrupted him, her voice tinged with anger. “Shut your
our mouth.”
“I…” Edel realized his blunder. Annoyed but determined, he continued, “I’m not dismissing traditional medicine, but from my perspective, modern medicine is indeed the primary focus of my research. So, I won’t compete with you. It’s not my forte.”
Edel was still trying to wriggle out of the situation.
sir.
Thomas sneered. “Is that so? So, Dr. Edel thinks that modern medicine surpasses traditional medicine in every aspect?”
Dr. Edel stiffened.
This was Tonico, a country rooted in medical culture.
Many people around him were watching him like hawks.
This was a tricky situation for Edel, but he had no choice but to respond.
Steeling himself, he said, “Yes.”
He thought to himself that if Thomas wanted to compete in modern medicine, he might not necessarily
be outclassed.
After all, he was among the top doctors globally.
“Very well,” Thomas said calmly. “Let’s do it this way. We’ll have a challenge where I’ll only use traditional medicine, and you’ll only use modern medicine. Right behind us is a hospital. You choose two patients with the same condition, and let’s see who can cure their patient first. How about that?”
This…
Edel’s eyes lit
- up.
It’s well–known that traditional medicine works slowly.

Even if Thomas was the Medical Mysts. Smited to wing traditional methods, how could he possibly
Thomas was too full of himself.
“Abright, 10x decided then” Edel experly agreed. “Are you sure I get to choose the patient?”
“Of course. Thomas nodded.
“With so many witnesses if I win.” Edel persisted
Thomas glanced at him. “Then you’ll be the undisputed Medical Mystic, and no one will ever doubt you. Lagain
“Great“” Edel was visibly energized.
Even if everyone knew he was a fake, winning would make him legitimate!

This competition seemed like a sure win for Lårl
With this thought, Ava cracked a slight smile “Wouldn’t it be a shame for such a contest to have no audience? How about I invite a few journalists and broadcast the whole event live?
“Sure, Thomas sait, raining an eyebrow

But this played right into her handi
She continued. “I believe the public would also like to see what’s happening. Why don’t we broadcast it live on television as well?
Thomas glanced at her and agreed. “Okay”
Ava narrowed her eyes.

This live broadcast meant that if Thomas lost publicly, even as the real Medical Mystic, there would be no coming back from it.
As for the chances of Thomas winning… they were extremely slim.
If Edel, one of the top doctors, were to lose to someone using purely traditional medical methods especially in terms of speed, then the gap between him and Thomas would be just too vast.
Edel was already at the pinnacle of medicine. Even if Thomas was more skilled, could he really leapfrog him in such a dramatic fashion?
That seemed impossible.
Mulling over the situation and feeling confident about her victory, Ava relaxed a bit.
She approached Edel and whispered. “Find some patients who need surgical operations.”
Edel nodded subtly, sharing the same thought.
Surgery is the forte of modern medicine, and he couldn’t believe that, no matter how skilled Thomas was, he could cure internal diseases that required surgery.
“Then, please Dr. Edel, go ahead and select the patients, Eason said, showing his complete trust in Thomas. He signaled, and soon someone from the hospital brought over a record book listing all the patients in the hospital.
Except for the floor exclusively reserved for treating Alexander, there were several hundred patients in the rest of the hospital.
Choosing suitable candidates wouldn’t be hard.
After browsing the list, Edel quickly made a decision. Let’s choose these two patients with appendicitis. They’re both in their thirties, young men with stable vital signs and no other complications. The only issue Some inflammation in the appendix. Dr. Thomas, you can choose one of the patients first, and I’ll treat
the other.”
Edel appeared quite magnanimous.
Eason’s face, however, changed slightly.
Appendicitis isn’t a severe disease, but the problem is….
The fastest and widely accepted treatment is surgery, removing the inflamed appendix.
But the issue is….
Thomas can only use traditional medicine.
Is he really sure about this?
