James glanced at Francois and said coldly, “Mr. Cortez, are you calling into question the Solean medical conference’s impartiality? With so many reporters and cameras here… With an audience that numbers a hundred thousand and the millions of viewers who are watching live right now, are you trying to say that I cheated?”
“You must’ve cheated. How can a youngster like you correctly identify so many herbs using your sense of smell in such a short amount of time? Even if you had your eyes opened, there’s no way you could’ve done it so quickly!”
Francois could not believe it.
He could not believe that a youngster like James would have such proficiency in medicine.
Delilah said, “Since the opponent has raised questions about the fairness of the competition, I’d like to invite the jury to investigate if there’s anything wrong with his blindfold.”
James gave his blindfold to the jury.
After inspecting it, they found nothing wrong with it.
“In that case, I officially declare Thea Callahan the winner of the first round.”
Hearing the final verdict, the crowd was rowdy.
Who would have thought that Thea, a woman who spent a fortune to push herself up the rankings, could emerge victorious in the first round?
“Who’s her assistant?”
“An unfamiliar face…”
“Never seen him before.”
“No, wait. That face… Isn’t he James Caden of Majestic Corporation?”
“What? James Caden? Isn’t he the Black Dragon? I thought the Black Dragon died on the battlefield.”
As James’ face was shared all over the internet, and his identity was exposed, many remembered him. They were utterly stunned.
“The Black Dragon? How can this be?”
“Legend has it that the Black Dragon’s medical skills are unrivaled. That explains the results.”
The crowd was heated in a discussion.
Delilah was just about to announce the next round of the competition when she received news from the staff backstage.
Upon hearing what they told her, she momentarily froze. Then, her body shivered.
Glancing at James, she blushed and asked excitedly, “Umm… May I ask if your name is James Caden?”
James never expected his identity to be exposed so soon.
He scratched his nose and said, “Yes.”
