"Of course, it’s to save people."

Tianye Yingzi snorted coldly, turned around, and walked out.

...

After Zhou Xiaoqian and the others left, Tang Ming and the remaining contestants didn’t know that the medical competition had already ended in the outside world. They were all prepared to continue the competition.

In fact, the nine people who were eliminated in the last round already made up the top ten list announced by the medical competition.

As for the rest, no matter how they performed, they would no longer appear in the public eye, which was quite ironic.

Most of those who reached this stage in the medical competition were experts in Traditional Chinese Medicine. However, the top ten in the outside world were mostly Western Medicine contestants.

Thus, in the eyes of the public, Western Medicine had overwhelmingly defeated Traditional Chinese Medicine in the competition, which was very unfavorable for the development of Traditional Chinese Medicine and was one factor in its decline.

Moreover, every ten years a batch of Traditional Chinese Medicine talents would be sabotaged. Over the years, it’s no wonder that Traditional Chinese Medicine is declining.

"Congratulations to all of you for entering the next round of the competition."

After a period of rest, Huang Hexian smiled at all the contestants in front of him, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

"Sir, what will we be competing in the next round?"

Someone couldn’t wait to ask.

"Before we start the next round, I want to tell you in advance about some of the processes in this competition. There are three segments left in the upcoming competition. None of you will be eliminated, but everyone’s points will accumulate. After three segments, the scores will be divided based on points.

Actually, the ranking is not important. What matters is the process. As long as you pass the next three segments, I can guarantee with my life that you will become beings standing at the peak of humanity."

"Wow, the more you talk, the more exaggerated it gets."

Standing beside Tang Ming, Hua Yingjie said with a strange expression of disdain, "Last round, it was about money and fame. This round, it’s about the peak of humanity. This brainwashing is going too far."

"Though it seems a bit exaggerated, it appears many people are buying it."

Tang Ming laughed, glancing around at the people, all excited and full of anticipation.

"I won’t waste words. It’s up to your own efforts now. Enter the second layer of the Medical Tower."

After Huang Hexian spoke for a while, he directly announced.

"What second layer?"

"Isn’t there only one layer here, where’s this second layer from?"

"Yeah! Why is it called the Medical Tower, such a strange name."

...

Many people began to wonder.

Huang Hexian smiled faintly without explanation and raised his hand to make a gesture.

Moments later, the entire building began to tremble. The floor where Huang Hexian was standing moved aside, revealing a staircase passage leading deep underground.

"What’s going on, there’s really another layer?"

Hua Yingjie, holding Tang Ming’s arm, looked at the staircase in shock.

"Interesting, it’s indeed getting more and more interesting."

Tang Ming’s eyes sparkled, "No wonder it’s called the Medical Tower. It turns out to be a structure extending downward. It seems the further down we go, the more thrilling it gets."

Seeing this scene, many people reacted differently. Some were as excited as Tang Ming, while others felt uneasy and fearful.

"Everyone, entering the next layer is a journey that can determine your future. Good luck."

After calming down, Huang Hexian encouraged them with a smile and then took the lead to go down.

A group of people looked at each other.

Tang Xinhai said nothing and followed closely behind Huang Hexian, heading downwards.

"What should we do?"

Hua Yingjie swallowed hard, feeling a bit apprehensive.

"Do you still want to become the Young Medical King and win the championship?"

Tang Ming glanced at Hua Yingjie.

"I... for the revitalization of the Heavenly Medicine Sect."

Hua Yingjie roared and stepped forward without hesitation.

Xia Yu shook his head and also followed inside.

Others gradually entered the passage as well. Although apprehensive, they couldn’t give up halfway after coming this far.

After walking down the stairs for a while, the group entered a bright and spacious fan-shaped room decorated in pure white. Opposite the exit, there were rows of closed metal doors.

Once they arrived, the entrance disappeared instantly.

"Welcome to the second layer of the Medical Tower."

Huang Hexian smiled kindly at Tang Ming and the others: "This round of competition is very simple. Each of you forty-one can choose any entrance. Once inside, heal the patient well and exit from the other side to complete the task.

Afterward, scores will be calculated based on your completion time. First place gets forty-one points, second place forty points, and so on."

"If there are no objections, please prepare to start the competition!"

Huang Hexian smiled and suddenly raised a hand, reminding, "By the way, when you see the patients inside, you don’t necessarily have to cure them completely. As long as you can walk from this side of the passage to the other side, it’s considered passing."

"This competition is getting weirder and weirder."

After hearing Huang Hexian’s introduction, Tang Ming felt puzzled, "Everyone enters a door alone and acts independently. It doesn’t seem competitive at all!"

"Why wouldn’t it be competitive? Acting alone, and then earning points based on results, it’s very scientific in the end."

Hua Yingjie excitedly rubbed his hands together, looking warlike at Bai Shengqi and Tang Xinhai: "This time I must be the first to finish the competition, that way I can be ahead by forty points."

"Brother, was your math taught by a physical education teacher?"

Tang Ming rolled his eyes at Hua Yingjie, "First and last place are only forty points apart, and Tang Xinhai and Bai Shengqi surely won’t be last place. Even if you take first place, you’ll only be one or two points ahead, and they might not lose to you either."

"Seems like it, huh."

Hua Yingjie thought for a bit and realized the score gap is hard to widen.

"No wonder the scores from the last round weren’t high, the scores really matter."

Tang Ming furrowed his brows and looked around: "But I’m not interested in the championship, as long as I can get into the top ten, it shouldn’t be a problem."

"For you, there’s no problem, but for me, it’s a mountainous pressure."

Hua Yingjie sighed, feeling great pressure from the inexplicably strong Tang Xinhai and Bai Shengqi.

After everyone exchanged a few words, Huang Hexian spoke again: "If you have no further questions, please start choosing the passage you want to enter. Each person can only choose one passage, be cautious and do your best."

As soon as he finished speaking, the group began moving, almost choosing the corresponding door numbers according to the last round’s ranking.

"Then I’ll enter door number five."

Seeing Hua Yingjie and the others enter passages, Tang Ming sighed helplessly, pushed open door number five, and entered.
