The competition officially began.
Just as Li Zhengxi walked in front of the puppet, a staff member came to his side with a tray.
Inside the tray, there was a long black cloth and several hundred silver needles.
Li Zhengxi picked up the black cloth from the tray, covered his eyes, and then grabbed a silver needle and quickly inserted it into the Yintang acupoint of the puppet.
Then, the second silver needle was inserted into the Taiyang acupoint of the puppet.
The third one was inserted into the Ermen acupoint.
The fourth one was inserted into the Jingming acupoint.
The fifth one was inserted into the Renzhong acupoint.
The sixth one, the seventh one…
In just the blink of an eye, Li Zhengxi inserted more than thirty silver needles into the puppet.
It took less than three minutes.
Seeing this scene, the faces of the three national medical masters in the audience became solemn.
Li Zhengxi truly lives up to his title as the Medical Sage of the Great Korea. His ability to dispense needles so quickly and identify acupoints so accurately even makes me feel ashamed of myself. Zhang Jiuling exclaimed.
Li Chunfeng said, “Ordinary people, even if they don’t cover their eyes, their needle insertion speed is not as fast as Li Zhengxi.”
Nie Xueliang looked worried: “In this blind needle competition, Little Ye is under a lot of pressure!”
Immediately, the three of them looked at Ye Qiu on the stage.
Ye Qiu’s expression remained calm and unruffled.
Zhang Jiuling let out another exclamation: “After seeing Li Zhengxi’s skills, Xiao Ye can still be so calm. He really has the demeanor of a great general!”
Li Chunfeng followed suit and said: “Yes, Xiao Ye is so young, yet he can keep his heart as calm as still water. It’s not simple.”
I just don’t know if Xiao Ye can win this round?
Nie Xueliang was most concerned about the outcome of this round.
The preparations for this competition were very thorough. On both sides of the stage, a huge LED display screen was erected respectively.
Every move on the stage was simultaneously displayed on the big screen, allowing the students to see clearly.
Exclamations rang out continuously:
Damn it, you can still give acupuncture with your eyes blindfolded. That old man is so powerful.
Nonsense, he is the Great Korean Medical Saint.
I didn’t expect that there could be so many tricks in the competition of medical skills. It’s really wonderful.
Brothers, stop playing games and watch the competition!
“……”
On the stage.
Li Zhengxi quickly inserted the needles without stopping for a moment.
Seven minutes passed.
There were already more than a hundred silver needles inserted into the puppet.
Li Zhengxi was so tired that he was sweating profusely. Although he was very familiar with this puppet, giving acupuncture was also a physical job.
Mr. Li, why don’t you take a two-minute break?” Ye Qiu kindly advised.”
Hmph, I don’t need to rest.” Li Zhengxi snorted coldly.”
He didn’t think Ye Qiu had good intentions. This competition also paid attention to time, and the shorter the time, the better. If he took a two-minute break, it would be equivalent to giving Ye Qiu two more minutes.
Although in Li Zhengxi’s mind, Ye Qiu was bound to lose this time, he didn’t want to rest either.
Winning earlier meant that Ye Qiu could die earlier.
Li Zhengxi continued to insert the needles.
While inserting the needles, he also counted in a low voice: “One hundred and fifty-seven, one hundred and fifty-eight, one hundred and fifty-nine…”
The number of silver needles in the tray was getting fewer and fewer.
Time was also passing by minute by minute.
Fifteen minutes later.
”The needle insertion is completed!” Li Zhengxi suddenly shouted loudly.
After shouting this, Li Zhengxi took two steps back and almost sat on the ground. Fortunately, Li Minghan was quick-eyed and ran over to support him.
”Father, are you okay?”
”I’m fine.” Li Zhengxi tore off the black cloth over his eyes and said panting.
Ye Qiu said beside him: “At your age, why bother to work so hard?”
”I told you to rest, but you just wouldn’t rest.”
”What, you want to kill me earlier?”
You’re right. I just want you to die earlier. What qualifications do you, a fledgling kid, have to compete with me? Li Zhengxi shouted, “Staff, check the result.”
Immediately, two staff members came to the stage.
Three minutes later.
The inspection was completed.
A staff member loudly reported the result: “Mr. Li Zhengxi took fifteen minutes and inserted three hundred and sixty-five silver needles. Each silver needle was inserted into the acupoints of the puppet accurately without error.”
As soon as this result was announced, the whole audience gasped.
Hiss——
“Li Zhengxi is so amazing!”
”He inserted three hundred and sixty-five silver needles in fifteen minutes and accurately without error. So awesome!”
”You know, he inserted the needles with his eyes blindfolded.”
”Oh no, Ye Qiu lost the first game.”
Among the crowd, a beautiful girl wearing a peaked cap put her hands on her chest and prayed silently.
”Ye Qiu Oppa, come on!”
If Ye Qiu saw her, he would definitely recognize that this girl was the one whose leg injury he treated in Confucius Temple the day before yesterday afternoon.
Her name is Xu Changjin, twenty-one years old, from South Korea. She is a student majoring in Chinese at Jinling University and also the school flower of Jinling University.
”Changjin, what are you thinking about?” A short-haired girl next to her asked.
Xu Changjin smiled and said: “It’s nothing.”
”Changjin, who do you think will win, that South Korean medical saint or Ye Qiu?”
”I don’t know.”
”Then who do you hope will win?”
Xu Changjin looked at Li Zhengxi and then at Ye Qiu and said: “I hope neither of them will lose. It’s best to end in a draw.”
”Why?” The short-haired girl was puzzled.
”Because the losing side has to commit suicide. They are both excellent doctors and I hope they can both live.” Xu Changjin said.
”Changjin, you are a Korean. I can understand that you hope the great Korean doctor won’t lose, but why don’t you hope Ye Qiu to lose? Do you like him?”
Hearing this, Xu Changjin’s eyes dodged a little and said, “Don’t talk nonsense. I just don’t want people to die.”
”Really?” The short-haired girl didn’t believe it. “If it’s just like this, then why are you blushing?”
Xu Changjin quickly covered her face with both hands and asked, “Am I blushing?”
”Not only your face is red, but also your ears are red. I think you just like that Ye Qiu.” The short-haired girl looked at Ye Qiu on the stage and said, “Changjin, to be honest with you, I also like him.”
”He is so handsome and wearing a white robe. He is simply the prince charming in my heart.”
”I really want to be his girlfriend.”
Seeing the short-haired girl’s nympho look, Xu Changjin’s heart tightened.
Then, the short-haired girl changed the topic: “However, since you like him, Changjin, then I have to give him up to you reluctantly.”
”Who wants you to give up.” Although Xu Changjin said so, there was a hint of joy in her heart.
The short-haired girl said, “Don’t want me to give up, right? Okay, then I will fight with you.”
”You are not allowed to fight with me.” After Xu Changjin said this, she realized that she had revealed her true feelings and instantly her face was full of shyness.
The short-haired girl laughed loudly: “Hahaha, I got your innermost thoughts out. Changjin, it turns out that you really like Ye Qiu!”
Xu Changjin was so ashamed that she had no place to hide. She glared at the short-haired girl and said, “Qiqi, if you say that again, be careful that I break off friendship with you.”
“Okay, okay, I won’t say it anymore… Hey, your sweetheart is going to take action.”
Immediately, Xu Changjin raised her head.
Her eyes looked at the stage.
