Chapter 561 The Traditional Medicine Course
Seth had a close friend named Simpson, who held a director position in Huxville. He had connections with many internationally renowned movie stars and recently, he had been considering a trip to Chanaea for inspiration.
Given the circumstances, it was best to have him come over sooner to meet with Emrys.
As a result, Seth readily agreed.
After leaving the film set, Emrys didn’t return to Verdant Estate, nor did he go to Apricot Hall. Instead, he made a trip to Jazona University.
After all, he was also a teacher for the traditional medicine short course. However, he wasn’t particularly committed. He would often disappear for a month or two at a time. Given these long absences, it would be unfair for him not to teach a single class.
Otherwise, there would have been no reason to start the course in the first place.
So, before leaving Jazona previously, Emrys had already instructed Mathias to arrange for doctors from Jadeborough Hospital to come and give lectures.
At the very least, he ensured that there was one class each week.
Most hospitals nowadays collaborate with medical universities by becoming affiliated institutions. Therefore, many doctors within these hospitals often find themselves giving lectures.
Jazona University was not a medical university, but arranging for someone to teach there weekly was not a significant issue for Jazona Hospital.
As the deputy director of the hospital, Mathias had the authority to make such arrangements.
Emrys didn’t notify anyone in advance. He only asked Mathias and found out that there was a traditional medicine class that day. So, he quietly made his way to Jazona University.
When Emrys saw the classroom, which was not even a third full, he couldn’t help but reveal a bitter and helpless smile.
Among these students, a third were engrossed in their phones, another third were sleeping, and only a handful were genuinely paying attention to the lecture.

Most of them were just there to earn academic credits.
Ever since Emrys stopped teaching at Jazona University, his traditional medicine interest. class fell into an awkward situation.
Of the doctors who were arranged by Mathias to give lectures, none were as lively and interesting as Emrys.
After several classes, the number of students gradually decreased.
In order to avoid the embarrassing situation of having no attendees for this elective course, the school incorporated it into the credit system, thereby retaining a portion of the students.
The thing about traditional medicine was that it was inherently dry and dull. If it was not presented in an engaging way, it could easily put people to sleep.
The situation at hand was exactly like that.
The lecture was being delivered by a stern man in his thirties, who was reciting the course materials word for word.
He was just there to complete the task assigned by the deputy director, so he didn’t put any effort into his lectures at all.
At that time, he was discussing an important concept in traditional medicine–preventing illness before it occurs.
“In ancient times, it was said that a superior doctor would provide preventative treatment to a person who has early symptoms of a disease…”
He recited the text from the book verbatim.
Thereafter, he elaborated slightly on the topic before considering the content taught.
Emrys heard it clearly at the classroom door, sighing inwardly. This is hardly a traditional medicine short course; it is more like a hypnotherapy session.
The popularity that he had managed to build up with great difficulty before was essentially gone.
“This isn’t how you teach the class.”
Emrys simply couldn’t bear it any longer. He strode into the classroom and began to
