Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1551: Chapter 1551: Looked Down on Again! (First Update)

Returning to Xuantian City, dawn had already broken, and Ye Haochuan didn’t go back to the inn but headed straight to the Greenstone Pagoda.

At this time, the surroundings of the Greenstone Pagoda were already densely packed with people; at a glance, all you could see were heads filling the space, even more spectacular than the scene during registration.

”Alliance Hierarch, why are you only arriving now? We’ve all been waiting to see your contest!” Ye Haochuan hadn’t even entered the crowd when Langfan shouted from afar.

”Watch my contest? Isn’t the Greenstone Pagoda supposed to not allow unrelated personnel to enter? How would you watch?” Ye Haochuan asked, puzzled.

”You still don’t know?” Langfan looked at Ye Haochuan as if he were an idiot and said, ”Well yes, you didn’t seem too concerned with the earlier matches, so you probably didn’t have time to review the contest regulations.”

With a smug look, he continued, ”Originally, picking five super geniuses from thirty was to be a two-day contest. But this time, because of the team battle, it’s been compressed. So today is the final!”

”Final? What does that matter?” Ye Haochuan asked, still puzzled.

Langfan made a gesture of exasperation and said, ”How can the final not be open to spectators? Otherwise, why wouldn’t Xuanmen just appoint five super geniuses directly? What’s the point of having a Greenstone Society then?”

”In that case, why are all these people gathered here? Why aren’t they going inside?”

Upon hearing this, Langfan’s face instantly turned sour and he replied, ”The guards won’t let us in!”

”Not allowed in? Then how will they watch the battle? Are they planning to do a live broadcast? Why not just watch from the inn? What’s the point of gathering here?”

”That I really don’t know. Once the contest begins, I guess we’ll naturally find out.” Langfan laughed, ”You’d better go inside quickly; the contest seems to be starting soon!”

Hearing Langfan’s words, Ye Haochuan stopped worrying about how they would watch and focused on getting into the contest.

As he slowly squeezed through the crowd toward the Greenstone Pagoda, several formidable voices flew overhead swiftly. Looking at their arrogant demeanor, heads held high, they seemed to despise all others.

Some among them deliberately executed majestic cultivation techniques, astonishing the crowd. Others used spiritual energy to add glamorous glows to themselves, catching people’s attention.

”Wow, look, these are the super geniuses in the top thirty!” someone in the crowd exclaimed.

The remark caused nearly everyone to turn their gaze toward those individuals, eyes filled with envy.

”Amazing, look at that young man, only twenty-one or twenty-two years old, yet has reached Core Formation Mid-Stage. Such talent is simply sky-defying!”

”What’s that? Look at that blue-shirted young man; he’s already at Core Formation Peak level!”

”And, the one in green seems to be a young master from the Ji Family. Last Greenstone Society, he entered the top thirty, and this time, who knows if he’ll make it to the top ten?”

”...”

Amidst the surrounding noisy chatter, Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Damn it, didn’t think this bunch would use such flamboyant ways to show off. Seems like I’m being too low-key!

”Well then, I should fly over; squeezing through is certainly a waste of time!” Ye Haochuan mumbled and was about to summon his Flying Sword.

However, at that moment, an elder suddenly stopped him and said, ”Young man, you mustn’t!”

”What’s wrong?” Ye Haochuan asked with a puzzled look.

”Every year during the Greenstone Society finals, there’s an unwritten rule. If you’re not in the top thirty, you can’t fly here. Otherwise, it’s easy to provoke retaliation from the top thirty talents!” the elder said with a caring smile.

Well, no wonder only these flamboyant ones are flying—it turns out there’s such a rule!

Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but smile wryly. This kind of rule undoubtedly exists to prevent others from overshadowing these people’s limelight.

”Elder, no need to worry, I am in the top thirty...” Ye Haochuan replied politely.

”Young man, boastful words are not a good trait!”

The elder lectured, ”I’ve watched so many Greenstone Societies; aside from the previous Ming Lang, which top thirty talent wasn’t born into a wealthy family? Judging by your attire, it’s clear you’re from an ordinary background.”

Jeez, it’s because of my clothes again—looked down upon!

Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Nevertheless, he wasn’t angry, as the elder’s intentions were good.

”Elder, how do you know I’m not someone like Ming Lang?” Ye Haochuan smiled and said.

The elder laughed and sighed, ”Ming Lang’s kind of talent isn’t easy to come by. Besides, back then, Ming Lang, though dressed ordinarily, had eyes brimming with murderous aura—one look and you could tell he wasn’t a common man. Despite your good looks, you lack transcendent demeanor; how can you compare to Ming Lang?”

Ye Haochuan truly had no words at this point; although cultivation had greatly enhanced his aura, his usual ordinary attire and lack of attention to demeanor made him indeed look like a regular person.

”Elder, your health seems somewhat poor!” Ye Haochuan shifted the topic from the top thirty issue and asked.

”Oh, as one ages, the body naturally isn’t as it used to be!” the elder shook his head and sighed.

”It’s not just age; it’s probably because of a few dark injuries left from youth, right?” Ye Haochuan smiled and said.

”How did you know?” The elder was startled and asked, ”Could it be you’re a Medicinal Cultivator?”

The elder had only just cultivated to the Innate level; for him, Medicinal Cultivators were prestigious figures.

It’s not due to his lack of exposure, but because Medicinal Cultivators are extremely rare, and those with some achievements are even rarer. For those barely Innate cultivators, opportunities to connect with skilled Medicinal Cultivators are scant.

Ye Haochuan’s ability to discern his ailments instantly spoke volumes about his medical skills. He hadn’t expected such a distinguished Medicinal Cultivator to be so approachable.

”I am indeed a Medicinal Cultivator, but I dare not claim any titles before you.” Ye Haochuan smiled and said, ”I have some medicine here that can heal your dark injuries and even prolong your life. If you trust me, please take it.”

With that, he took out a small bottle of Primordial Thunder Purple Bee Emperor Jelly and handed it to the elder.

”Thank you, Medicinal Cultivator!” Trembling slightly, the elder accepted the bottle and drank it in one go.

Seeing the elder drink it without hesitation, Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but chuckle, ”We’ve just met; aren’t you afraid I might harm you?”

”Medicinal Cultivator jokes, my old bones are already buried up to the neck; what’s there for a Medicinal Cultivator to harm?”

In just a word, the elder’s voice had changed significantly. His earlier frail and hoarse voice was replaced by a bright and robust one.
