My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 86: Training Classes for the Elite Only

Qin Shanshui stood there awkwardly, looking at Yang Qi. "It was just a joke, Mr. Yang," he said. "I greatly admire your outstanding medical skills!"

"A joke? If I had lost the bet, it wouldn’t have been a joke, would it?" Yang Qi scoffed. "Miss Lin and City Lord Zhao were both witnesses. Are you trying to go back on your word?"

Qin Shanshui clenched his teeth. "How about this? I’ll give you a medicinal herb that’s over ten years old. Can we just forget about the kneeling?"

"No!" Yang Qi stated indifferently.

"Hmph! You just got lucky, like a blind cat catching a dead mouse, and managed to save Miss Zhao. Don’t push your luck," Wang Nanshan, Qin Shanshui’s disciple, suddenly shouted. "My master is the president of the National Medicine Association in Kang City and one of the vice presidents of the Jingnan Prefecture National Medicine Association. Offending him will do you no good."

"That’s right, Liu Yu," Qin Tian sneered. "Don’t you want to attend the National Medicine Association’s training program too? Your master and Yang Qi have a good relationship, so why not ask your master to put in a good word? Otherwise, this will be embarrassing for everyone!"

"Oh? You also want to attend the training program of the National Medicine Association?" Yang Qi glanced at Wang Nanshan and smiled.

"That’s right! Nanshan is truly a dragon among men," Qin Shanshui said proudly. "At such a young age, he has already acquired half of my skills. He’s coming to Kang City specifically to participate in the National Medicine Association’s training program. In the future, he will be the Sacred Hand of Jingnan Prefecture."

Actually, he didn’t understand why the training program, which was originally held in the Provincial City, had been relocated to Kang City. Still, it worked in his favor. Proximity brought opportunity, and being in Kang City made it easier for him to pull some strings.

Wang Nanshan was also immensely proud. It seemed these young people truly felt honored by the prospect of the Jingnan Prefecture National Medicine Association’s training program. Wang Nanshan himself looked insufferably arrogant, as if joining the program meant he would instantly reach the peak of his life.

In his pride, Wang Nanshan shot a few more glances at Lin Qingxuan, undisguised greed showing in his eyes. Who doesn’t like a beautiful woman? But his gaze was simply lecherous, utterly filthy.

"Miss Lin, if you only admire this boy’s medical skills, there’s no need," Wang Nansheng smiled. "I’m going to be the Sacred Hand of Jingnan Prefecture. If you ever have any problems, feel free to come to me. I’ll solve them for you. Besides, my cousin, Wang Teng, is deeply in love with you."

"That’s right, Miss Lin," Qin Shanshui added his approval. "This young man is extremely capable, with a truly unique talent for medicine. In the future, he won’t just be the Sacred Hand of Jingnan Prefecture. He might even go to Jingzhou to become an Imperial Physician! Getting on good terms with him would also be beneficial for your Lin Family in Jingzhou."

Qin Tian also smiled. "Uncle, your ability to pick talent is truly top-notch. Wang Nansheng’s future as an Imperial Physician will begin with this training program. I heard the National Medicine Association has a new President, who will personally participate in the training. That’s incredibly prestigious! It’s not something a lucky pretty boy like Yang Qi can compare to."

"You all seem to be getting off-topic," Yang Qi’s voice suddenly cut in. "Qin Shanshui, kneel."

"You! You just don’t get it, do you?" Qin Shanshui retorted. "If you let me off this time, I can get you into the training program."

"Not interested."

Yang Qi found this hilarious. He was already the President of the National Medicine Association. Did he really need a minor figure like Qin Shanshui to get him into a training program? How ridiculous.

At this moment, Lin Qingxuan grabbed Yang Qi’s hand, smiled, and said, "I don’t think you’re even a match for Yang Qi. Your disciple is even less of a match for him. You boast so much, aren’t you afraid of the fall killing you?"

Seeing Lin Qingxuan’s action, Wang Nansheng felt a fire ignite within him.

Never mind that he himself was smitten with her; the simple fact that his cousin Wang Teng liked Lin Qingxuan was enough. He couldn’t tolerate her being so intimate with another man. Moreover, the person she was now praising was just a down-and-out nobody. How could he possibly compare? Even though he was from a collateral branch, he was still a member of the Provincial City’s Wang Family. His cousin, Wang Teng, was the heir of that same family!

"Miss Lin, you must have been deceived by this guy," Qin Tian said blatantly. "He used to be decent, but what is he now? Just a useless wreck."

"That’s only because you’re all fools," Lin Qingxuan stated coolly.

Hearing this, Qin Tian was seething with rage. He was practically hopping mad, but facing Zhao Xiong and Lin Qingxuan, he didn’t dare vent his anger.

"Qin Shanshui, you still haven’t knelt," Yang Qi said again.

Qin Shanshui, who had hoped to muddle through, was utterly dismayed. Helplessly, he knelt and gave Yang Qi three loud kowtows.

"Hahaha, very good," Yang Qi laughed. "Now send someone to get the medicine."

With a gloomy expression, Qin Shanshui made a call to have the medicinal herb delivered. Then, he looked at Qin Tian and said, "Remember, the opening ceremony for the training program is in three days. Bring your family to spectate. If you’re lucky, you might even get to see Master Chen. You might even catch a glimpse of our new President."

The man was obviously just showing off. He couldn’t possibly dream that Yang Qi himself was the new President of the Jingnan Prefecture National Medicine Association.

"If we could meet Master Chen, it would truly be the fortune of a lifetime," Qin Tian said, playing along and deliberately showing off. "And the new President is probably even more incredible than Master Chen. If we could meet him too, we wouldn’t have to worry about any intractable diseases in Jingnan Prefecture ever again. It would be like gaining an extra life."

"I’m so envious. I’d love to meet Master Chen, too," Liu Changsheng said wistfully. "And if I could see the new President, that would be even better!"

Liu Yu’s face was full of hope. He desperately wanted to join the training program. Even Zhao Xiong was interested in going. In Jingnan Prefecture, the National Medicine Association controlled seventy percent of all medical resources, especially for problems that Western medicine couldn’t solve. They were the last hope. Building a good relationship with them was undoubtedly a wise move. In his view, Yang Qi saving his daughter was probably just a stroke of luck. After all, the boy was far too young.

Hearing them talk, Qin Shanshui sighed. "It can’t be helped. This is a high-level training program. It’s not for just anyone. Not every Tom, Dick, and Harry can get in!" 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"What a joke," Yang Qi said with disdain. "It’s just the opening ceremony for a National Medicine training program. What’s so difficult about it? I’ll go if I want to. Liu Changsheng, Liu Yu, you two should come along as well. I’d like to see who dares to kick you out!"

With the exception of Lin Qingxuan, everyone was stunned. His claim was nothing short of astounding. Even Zhao Xiong frowned slightly. This young man was his benefactor, so he couldn’t say anything, but he certainly was a braggart.

"HAHAHA!" Qin Shanshui burst into laughter. "You’ll go if you want to? Are you kidding me? This is a high-profile ceremony for the absolute elite. Only prestigious figures are qualified to attend. Oh, I almost forgot—are you planning to have Miss Lin beg for favors on your behalf again?"
