Strongest Medical Saint

Miao Bohou and others saw Shen Feng's indifference and started to become anxious. If they couldn't reach the assessment site within ten minutes, Shen Feng would be directly eliminated.

Seeing his granddaughter Kong Xiaoxuan had already run out, Kong Yaonian had a sorrowful expression on his face and said, "Little Brother Shen, I'm begging you, please don't play with me at a time like this!"

Shen Feng replied casually, "Don't worry about it! Ten minutes is way too long, there's no need to panic."

After finishing his words, he started running in the direction to his left, without the need to exert his full strength.

Each teaching building with an assessment site was some distance apart, so people heading to different assessment sites couldn't see the situations at the others.

Tang Kexin watched Shen Feng's receding back as he ran and shouted, "Brother Shen Feng, you can do it!"

Xiao Yiqiu, Xu Han, and other students also started to cheer loudly, "Teacher Shen, keep it up, Teacher Shen, keep it up!"

Standing in the crowd, Mo Wei, Nie Zhiqi, Fang Junxian, and Qin Ruiyuan had fluctuating expressions as they watched Shen Feng leaving. Among them, although Qin Ruiyuan was the president of Tianhai Medical University, this selection competition was merely using their campus facilities, and he didn't have much say in the proceedings.

Miao Bohou and others hadn't expected the preliminary competition to change so much, even including a physical component. However, the truly renowned doctors had all advanced without needing to compete.

Once all the competitors had left, Qiu Baixing said, "There are cameras outside each assessment site, and the footage they capture will be transmitted here in real time. I believe everyone is very interested in this assessment, so I will choose one site's footage to broadcast."

Having said that, he was the first to walk towards the gymnasium, with Ji Yunhan and Uncle Zhong beside him.

Miao Bohou, Kong Yaonian, and the rest also entered the gymnasium.

At that moment.

The assessment site for Shen Feng happened to be the same one where Shao Manhong and Li Zhenfa were, and a group of people were straining to run towards a distant teaching building.

Shen Feng quickly overtook them. Shao Manhong and Li Zhenfa were sweating profusely. Seeing Shen Feng surpass them, they were extremely uncomfortable inside. Regardless of whether Shen Feng had any medical skills, they absolutely disliked the young man, and it seemed their rivalry was set in stone.

All of a sudden.

A cry of agony arose from within the running crowd, "Ah!"

A man in his forties fell to the ground, clutching his chest tightly, gasping constantly, "I can't breathe, I can't breathe..."

His complexion grew paler and paler, and his lips began to change color, as the surrounding people suddenly stopped.

Shen Feng, who hadn't run too far, also turned his gaze toward the middle-aged man who had fallen.

Seeing the man struggling to breathe more and more severely, as if he might stop breathing at any moment.

And the time ticked away by the second.

A competitor in his thirties looked at his watch and without hesitation continued to run towards the assessment site.

After the first person took the lead, many others also started running again, justifying themselves with seeming conviction.

"Someone will come to treat him soon. It's the competition period now, we can't stop," they argued.

"Yes, if we don't get to the assessment site within ten minutes, we'll all be eliminated."

...

Shen Feng shook his head as he watched these people reveal their true nature. Making it clearer wouldn't change the fact that they were just considering their own interests, right? Did they really need to put on such airs of righteousness?

However, he sensed something was off. On the surface, it seemed like the middle-aged man was indeed in bad shape, but the vitality within him showed no signs of dissipating.

After carefully sensing with his Spiritual Energy, Shen Feng quickly had his answer. The middle-aged man had taken some kind of drug to purposely put himself in this state.

Realizing this, Shen Feng chuckled to himself, "This kind of assessment is really cliché."

He guessed that within the crowd heading to the same assessment site, there would be one contestant suddenly falling ill, which was obviously staged by someone.

But the illness seemed very realistic, and at this moment, no one would bother to check thoroughly. Therefore, even seasoned doctors couldn't see through the ruse, and even if they did check, it wouldn't necessarily be quick to find out.@@novelbin@@

So, is this an assessment of medical ethics?

Is it to neglect helping others for one's own benefit, or to abandon personal gain and aid those in distress?

He guessed that only by choosing the latter would one be able to advance smoothly – no wonder he had seen a hint of cunning flash in Qiu Baixing's eyes earlier.

Shen Feng walked directly toward the collapsed middle-aged man. Almost all the contestants had left, leaving only a few stragglers.

He hadn't noticed earlier, but Sun Dong Quan's disciple, Zhao Yi, was also there. This time, he was solely relying on his master's influence to gain some experience, not expecting to rank highly, especially since his master was also participating.

When Zhao Yi saw Shen Feng walking back, he said anxiously, "Senior Shen, what are you doing? You should head to the assessment site quickly. I'm just here to go through the motions. I won't be participating in the International Medical Competition, anyway."

Shen Feng shrugged his shoulders without explaining much, "Let's first check his condition!"

Most of those who stayed were contestants who relied on connections to get a glimpse of the world.

Shao Manhong and Li Zhenfa naturally ran faster than rabbits. When they saw Shen Feng going back like an idiot, they felt secretly thrilled. They really wondered if this guy had a problem in his head. At such a critical moment in the competition, he actually bothered with some random person, serving him right to be eliminated.

As Shao Manhong ran forward, he said to Li Zhenfa beside him, smiling, "Is this kid planning to give up the competition? For a stranger?"

Li Zhenfa responded, "Who knows how he deceived Cripple Hu and the others? At a time like this, which fool would give up? This is a national selection competition. Even if one can't make it to the international stage, getting through the preliminaries can still offer a chance to showcase one's medical skills on a national platform, which is very beneficial for boosting one's reputation."

Shao Manhong ran energetically, checking his watch and realizing he had enough time before slowing down a bit. He said, "Only those who know they can't make it through the competition would give up now. That means this kid lacks confidence. Even if he knows medical skills, I doubt he's that strong. I really don't understand why Cripple Hu and the others are so respectful to him?"

Meanwhile,

Shao Manhong and Li Zhenfa had reached the teaching building, with plenty of time to spare. The ten-minute duration was ample, as long as one ran a bit, they could arrive within the allotted time.

As Shao Manhong and Li Zhenfa reached the third floor, they glanced down at the distant spot below the building and saw that Shen Feng hadn't left yet.

Li Zhenfa chuckled, "This kid is destined to be eliminated."
