Seth noticed their looks of confusion, and he said, "He's from Hill Crest. This is their first time joining the forum, and they're already making a mess out of it. They must be punished!" He looked at Kingsley smugly, thinking that Kingsley could not do anything about this.

"H-Hill Crest?" Ronald and his companions froze. Wait. We sent the invites to them ourselves. It can't be. Could he be the one? Ronald noticed Alice and Alan. He thought they looked familiar, and then he realized where he had seen them before. They were with the God of Medicine back at Joshua's place! "G-G..." Ronald started to stammer. Words were not enough to describe how shocked he was. Just like Ronald, his companions' eyes widened. They too were in disbelief.

They knew Dr. Nicholson was young, but they did not expect him to be this young. He's what? Twenty? Twenty-one? It was unbelievable that someone had mastered the art of ancient healing at that kind of age. Most master healers had worked for decades in the industry. Kingsley was the only outlier, but still, it proved that even the young could be a master. The juggernauts froze up. They stared at Kingsley, as if he was some sort of miracle.

The crowd was perplexed to see Ronald and his companions freeze up.

"What's going on? Why are they so quiet all of a sudden?"

"They're furious, I guess. Hill Crest is just some no-name hospital, and they just made a mess."

Tristan snapped out of it and told Ronald, "I can handle this, Mr. Duncan. Don't worry about it. I'll make him—"

Ronald snapped out of it before he could finish, but he was still staring at Kingsley. His eyes gleamed, and he buzzed with excitement. "M-Might you be Dr. Nicholson?"

Tristan and everyone else were flabbergasted. "He's what now?"

Lots of reporters tried to make a writeup of what happened last time, but Kingsley told Daniel to keep the news from making the rounds as he wanted to lay low. Not even a video or a photo of the occasion was leaked. Tristan and the other doctors were Western doctors, after all, so they did not really care about ancient healing. Of course they had no idea Kingsley had made a name for himself in Cleapolis.

Everyone was still waiting for an answer, but what came next only begged more questions. Ronald's companions suddenly leaped in joy.

"Oh my god! It's him! It's Dr. Nicholson!"

"Holy smokes! He's young!"

Blake was red with excitement. He pushed through the throng and knelt before Kingsley. "Dr. Nicholson, I wish to study under you. Please, take me under your wing."

Tristan, Seth, and the crowd were in disbelief. They could not believe what they just heard. The Acupuncture Society's president actually knelt down to him? And he wants the guy to be his mentor? Is this some sort of joke?

These doctors might not care about ancient healing, but they still knew that Blake was the pride and joy of the legendary Old Master Todd. They could not believe that Blake actually wanted to break off from Dr Todd and learn from someone else, and right in front of them too.

Seth's mouth formed a comical O. It was like his world shattered. "A-Are you alright, Mr. Hemsworth? Is something wrong?"

Before he could go any further, Ronald knelt before Kingsley as well, and he said the same thing Blake did. "Please, take me under your wing, Dr. Nicholson!"

"W-What are you talking about, Mr. Duncan?"

The crowd froze up for a long while. Blake kneeling down was already crazy enough, and Ronald doing the same thing only made it crazier.

Everyone thought they were seeing things, but then Ronald's other companions knelt as well. Some of them were too old to move, but they still leaned against the people beside them as support and slid down. They gazed at Kingsley with worship while requesting, "Please, take us under your wing, Dr. Nicholson! We'll be loyal to you for life!"
