The other was an unknown doctor.
Who would emerge victorious?
The crowd watched in anticipation.
Looking at Jay and Jonathan on stage, Thea asked, “Mr. Caden, those medicinal herbs look ordinary. Can they really be made into a poison?”
“Yes.”
James nodded. “Though the herbs themselves are not poisonous, they could be after being mixed together. Jay and Jonathan are both skillful doctors. The poison they concoct should be deadly. We’ll have to see whose antidote is better.”
Thea glanced at James and asked, “Mr. Caden, do you think you can win against them in a competition?”
The corner of his mouth turned up slightly with a smile.
Seeing this, Thea understood.
Time passed.
Under the watchful gaze of the audience, Jay and Jonathan were concocting a poison in earnest based on their understanding of each herb.
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
“Time’s up. Please stop what you’re doing.”
Jay and Jonathan stopped.
Kevin looked at them and said, “For safety’s sake, you should create the antidote. There’s no time limit for this. As this is a competition, please ensure that the antidote is effective. Things might get a little problematic if someone actually dies. To ensure the fairness of this competition, the poison you have concocted will be temporarily sealed away.”
Jonathan immediately went looking for herbs to create an antidote.
Meanwhile, Jay only stood there motionless.
“What’s wrong, grandpa?” Christine asked.
Wearing a grim expression, he said, “The poison I concocted is too deadly. It’s almost impossible to create an antidote from the thousand herbs that are available here. It can release half the toxins at most.”
Christine whispered, “We still have acupuncture and acupoint treatment, don’t we? With these two treatments, the toxins should be completely removed.”
