Later, I added other fields, general medicine, pediatrics, obstetrics, gynecology, networking, negotiation, a lot more. Most recently, I’ve been studying psychiatry."

Her eyes widened a bit. Just how many things can one person master?

He continued, almost like he was reading her thoughts. "I also practiced martial arts and a few other areas, but I’m not the best there. In fact, I’m only second to two people when it comes to the things I didn’t specialise in."
