Bound to the Lord Protector
Fellow TCM practitioners were rendered speechless. They had an awful expression on their faces when they heard George's request. TCM practices were nothing similar to those of Western medical practices. They didn't have access to such technologically advanced equipment that would enable them to keep a patient alive. It would be impossible for them to keep a vegetative patient alive through several silver needles. At the very least, none of the experienced TCM practitioners would be able to pull such a feat through. Susan regretted her action of bringing George to the forum due to his abnormal behaviour. She wouldn't have brought him with her if she had any idea of what he had in his mind. Susan urged, “George, you're leveraging on the Western medical practice's advantage and picking on TCM practice's weakness. It's not even a fair fight, to begin with! Just sit down!” George replied, “Does that mean you agree with my point of view as well? TCM practitioners are no match for Western doctors!” Susan got anxious all of a sudden and rebutted, “Stop playing around with my words! Both TCM practitioners and Western doctors each have their own pros and cons! However, both practices are essential for mankind's wellbeing! You can't possibly compare apples to oranges!” George got worked up and yelled hysterically, “Susan, you're a Western doctor as well! How dare you take the TCM practitioners' side? You're a traitor!” “Y-You're the traitor!” Susan was infuriated. Zeke got up all of a sudden as he could no longer hold back himself. He had always been a great fan of TCM practices. Hence, he would never allow anyone else to belittle TCM practitioners. Fine! I'll speak on behalf of fellow TCM practitioners today! Zeke walked towards George, but Daniel stopped him, asking, “Zeke, what are you trying to do?” Zeke replied, “I have to defend the dignity of fellow TCM practitioners.” Daniel's forehead beaded with sweat when he heard Zeke's words. “Hurry up and sit down! According to what I know, TCM practitioners are indeed no match for Western doctors in terms of maintaining a patient's life. Plus, it's a vegetative patient that we're talking about! You'll be in huge trouble if you mess it up! It's someone's life at stake here!”Susan tried to stop Zeke as well. “Mr. Williams, please stay out of this! Since I'm the one who invited him, I'll chase him out...” Zeke replied in a callous tone, “Chase him out? I won't allow him to leave unless he apologizes to fellow TCM practitioners today!” He marched towards the stage as soon as he finished his speech. Shawn sized Zeke up and asked, “Young man, what do you want?” “Revenge,” replied Zeke. The crowd got worked up once again all of a sudden. Revenge? Does that mean he's going to maintain a vegetative patient's life through TCM practices? He must be kidding, right? Although we've spent half of our lives researching TCM practices, we won't be able to pull off such a feat! This young man seems like a rookie in the TCM industry! I'm certain he won't be able to pull it off either! Shawn tried to stop Zeke, “Young man, I can totally relate to how you feel. I want to defend fellow TCM practitioners as well! However, I'm afraid no TCM practices are able to achieve such a feat as of now... You should take your leave.” Zeke replied, “That's because your knowledge is rather limited.” What an impudent fool! How dare he utter such words against the TCM Practitioners Association's president? He's even more arrogant than George! George cast an indifferent gaze at Zeke and thought to himself. You're the one I was waiting for! “Are you sure you're able to sustain my father's life?” Zeke replied, “Nope! I will save your father!” Pfffft! George broke into laughter all of a sudden, “Even the most advanced medical equipment couldn't pull off such a feat! Do you really think you can save my father and wake him up from a coma? Stop getting ahead of yourself!” Zeke mocked in return, “Oh? Does that mean the Western medical practices weren't able to save him? If I'm able to save your father, would that mean TCM practitioners are better than Western doctors?”“Of course,” replied George. Zeke assured him, “Great! If I'm able to save your father, you'll have to publish an official apology for three days through the international medical journals. I want you to admit that Western doctors are no match for TCM practitioners!” “Sure! However, if you can't save him, I want you to do the same and apologize to us Western doctors as well!” demanded George. Zeke nodded in return. Everyone grew anxious all of a sudden because they deemed the only outcome of the match would be Zeke's defeat. If they were to publish an official apology through the international medical journal and acknowledge they weren't a match for Western doctors, things would get much tougher for fellow TCM practitioners. That would be the end for fellow TCM practitioners. Everyone condemned Zeke for his actions and demanded him to withdraw from the match. Shawn was one of them too. “Young man, you have no right to represent TCM practitioners! You do not have the right to leverage on the honour of TCM practitioners! Hurry up and return to your seat! I'll let you off the hook this once!”
