The village beauty and me!

Aren't any of you going to participate?

"I won't participate in the bet, but we can take the exam together."

Chen Huan's clothes were being coaxed and persuaded.

These are all students of Traditional Chinese Medicine. If it weren't for my own reasons, they would probably have already taken the exam, or even passed it successfully.

Now, due to my own actions, I've wasted time and may not even get a single spot.

This is the outcome Chen Huan did not want to see.

The group of people looked at each other, unsure of what to do.

"What, are you trying to recruit more people because you're worried about not having enough?"

"How ridiculous." Sun Guangming immediately switched to sarcasm mode.

He then added sarcastically, "Poor people love to stick together."

"But the question is, do they really have the guts to team up with you?"

"It doesn't really matter anyway. All five spots today will be in our hands. No matter how much the poor and incompetent struggle, it's useless."

"Don't go too far. You keep calling people poor and incompetent. Do you think you're so great just because you have a little money?" The people who had been observing from the sidelines were now getting annoyed.

They immediately started arguing.

Seeing that the time was right, Chen Huan immediately invited, "Come on, join my team, I'll carry you to victory."

"We will absolutely not give up our spots to them today."

Therefore, under the influence of various factors, the other three people no longer hesitated and immediately chose to join Chen Huan's team.

The situation has now become five against five.

An ordinary person versus a so-called elite team.

"Hey you, hurry up and announce the rules, stop wasting our precious time."

"We are different from these poor people; we value time very much," Sun Guangming said bluntly to the examiner.

The latter was so angry that his face turned ashen, but he couldn't lose his temper because Chairman Xu was there to keep him in check.

At this point, all he could do was mutter, "If neither party has any objections, then I will now announce the rules."

"Just like before, let's identify the medicinal herbs, after all, this is a basic skill for learning traditional Chinese medicine."

Upon hearing about identifying medicinal herbs, Zhao Liping, who was initially a little nervous, immediately relaxed.

Because she knew very well how talented Chen Huan was in this area.

Although the people on the other side looked strong and well-equipped, they might not have much of an advantage if it came down to identifying medicinal herbs, thanks to Chen Huan's amazing abilities.

Sun Guangming snorted coldly, "Can we stop with this childish stuff?"

"We're all adults, what's the point of identifying medicinal herbs every day?"

"This is a TCM qualification exam, not an apprenticeship recruitment."

"You wouldn't be deliberately favoring Chen Huan, would you?"

Sun Guangming is a sensible man. He had some understanding of the previous matches, so he immediately voiced his opposition.

"This is the territory of the Chinese Medicine Association. You have no right to interfere with the assessment methods used. Who do you think you are?"

The examiner finally lost his temper.

Sun Guangming said with a sinister look, "What's wrong? Are you angry because I've seen through your secret?"

"So what if you're just a Traditional Chinese Medicine Association? Believe me, I'll report you to the relevant authorities for abusing your power and using your position for personal gain!"

"Our family business has an excellent legal team, and I will definitely let you know when the time comes."

The examiner, his face dark, was about to continue scolding him.

At this moment, Chen Huan stepped forward and said calmly, "Wow, that's impressive. Big families are different; they even speak with such arrogance."

"Since that's the case, why don't you tell me your thoughts? How would you like to compete?"

The examiner glared at Chen Huan.

He wondered to himself, "Could this kid have something wrong with his head?"

I tried my best to help him, but he not only didn't appreciate it, but also sided with the opponent. Has he gone mad?

Sun Guangming's face lit up with joy. "Great! You're the one who suggested it."

"What I mean is, since we're going to have an assessment, let's make it more formal and sophisticated."

"Let's start with the medicinal herbs, but this time it's not child's play like identifying herbs; let's make the medicine directly."

"Both sides have five people each, so it can be considered a small team."

"Let's have a team competition. Each side will refine their own medicine, and the team with the better quality medicine will be the winner."

This guy clearly came prepared. Even though he doesn't understand traditional Chinese medicine, he's talking non-stop, like he's reciting a text.

Chairman Xu immediately coughed and looked at Chen Huan.

It was clearly meant to warn him not to fall for the scam.

The new members standing behind Chen Huan were also shaking their heads repeatedly.

They are here today to take the primary level TCM qualification exam.

Even if they had some basic skills and abilities, they were still far from being able to compete with professional teams in making medicine on-site.

Therefore, the competition rules proposed by Sun Guangming are a huge trap. Falling into it is equivalent to losing, without a doubt.

However, Chen Huan nodded without hesitation, "Okay, we'll do it your way."

"One match decides the winner; the loser is fired, and the winner gets the certificate."

After speaking, he turned his gaze to the examiners and Chairman Xu, "What do you two think?"

The examiner was clearly about to object, but Chairman Xu calmly responded, "Since both of you have reached an agreement, I naturally have no problem with that."

"As long as you can make good medicine, the winning side will naturally get the qualification certificate."

"I just don't know what the specific details are."

"You two need to discuss this before the competition to avoid ending up in court."

Sun Guangming's eyes lit up, clearly indicating that he had other prepared statements.

At this moment, Zhao Liping spoke up, "Shouldn't you be able to decide what medicines to refine anymore?"

"After all, you were the ones who proposed this rule, so it's obvious you were prepared in advance."

"If we concoct medicine according to your requirements, wouldn't we be at a huge disadvantage?"

The new teammates next to her immediately chimed in, "That's right, this beautiful lady is absolutely right. We can't let them continue to take advantage of us."

"We should be the ones to decide what medicine to refine."

Sun Guangming snorted coldly, "This is your home turf. As outsiders, we are at a disadvantage from the start."

"Why should you be the ones deciding which medicine to refine? Are you insecure and lack confidence in your own abilities?"

The two sides started arguing, neither willing to give in.

Chen Huan frowned, stepped forward, and said loudly, "Listen to me."

After everyone quieted down, he continued, "To be fair, I think we shouldn't set any rigid rules."

"I do have a suggestion."

"Find an outsider, someone who doesn't understand traditional Chinese medicine or medicinal herbs, and randomly select ten kinds of medicinal herbs, then give them to each of the two teams."

"Both sides used these medicinal materials to refine medicines on the spot. Whoever could refine a more valuable and effective medicine would be the winner."

Both sides remained silent for a while.

Sun Guangming and the few TCM elites he had brought across the table discussed the matter.

Finally, they focused their attention on Zhao Yaru, saying, "Let Miss Zhao take on the role of the outsider."

"Let's randomly select fifteen medicinal herbs and have a showdown!"
