“The medical practices you worship are just a branch of Gerlandian medicine. It’s something that not even dogs will care about!”

His words triggered an uproar. The freezing atmosphere instantly exploded.

“Motherf*cker! I’m going to teach that damned Gerlandian a lesson!”

“Damn it, how dare you come to Florence and make a ruckus?”

“I’m going to bash your head in!”

“How dare someone like you dare to spew words like that here? Who do you think you are?”

“There must be a few screws loose in that brain!”

Even Andrius, who was always calm, was irritated by Zachary. His brows furrowed tightly.

Luna also scowled, and the word ‘disgust‘ was written all over her face.

Thus, the second round of the Grand Medicinal Competition began amidst the angry curses toward Zachery.

After all the doctors went on stage, Angus raised his voice and announced, “The second round of the competition begins now! Here are the rules.

“When the competition starts, each participant will receive a basket containing a hundred different medicinal herbs.

“Participants will earn one point for each herb they identify correctly. No points will be awarded or deducted if they identify it incorrectly or fail to identify it.

“The time limit is ten minutes. Within these ten minutes, the 20 participants with the highest scores will proceed to the next round.

“In the case of a tie, the participant with fewer identification errors will rank higher. If the number of errors is the same, then the one who spends less time will rank higher!”
