Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)
Chapter 2264 Substitute Elder

"Speaking of which, not only are you highly skilled in medicine, but you're extremely lucky as well. The CAUMP just happens to be undergoing reformation because the previous annual competitions had caused the skills among the Holy Doctors to vary."

Rhett's expression turned serious as he spoke. In order to change this situation, the CAUMP changed the frequency of the competition to once every four years so that the participants could achieve better accumulation and allow more talented Holy Doctors to emerge, just like Matthew.

"The most important point is that you are about to form a conventional bond with the Sixteen Major Forces of Cathay. Hal's relationship with them has been fully repaid and exhausted, so now this bond has been transferred to you. But of course, it is because most of them are convinced of your abilities."

After Rhett finished speaking, Matthew curiously asked, "What if they aren't convinced?"

Upon hearing this, Rhett shook his head. "Then we'll wait another four years for the next Holy Doctor Competition."

Matthew understood the nature of this cooperation after listening to that. It was an exchange of interests to achieve a win-win situation. While one side would provide superb medical skills for emergencies, the other would protect the Holy Doctor.

"As for the second matter, it is about this." As Rhett spoke, he took out a palm-sized token from his pocket. "This is the token of the CAUMP's board of seniors. Considering your outstanding performance in dealing with the 'Zombies' virus and in the Holy Doctor Competition. After discussions with the board of seniors, it has been decided that you will be a substitute elder.

Although you have high attainment in medicine and have the inheritance from your ancestors, you don't have much experience and are unable to convince the masses. Therefore, the board of seniors has come up with this compromise." At that moment, Matthew received the token. His name was carved onto the token's front side, while the CAUMP's logo was carved on its back.

"Though you won't have the authority of an elder, you have the right to access all the medical books and pharmacopoeias owned by the board of seniors, except for confidential documents." That benefit made Matthew's eyes light up. Even though he had inherited his ancestors' legacy, the field of medicine was constantly evolving, so he still needed to consolidate a lot of modern information on medical and pharmaceutical studies.

"Alright, I have said everything that needs to be said. Once the Ten Great Families and the Six Kings have prepared the corresponding medicinal herbs and treasures for you, someone will notify you to attend a banquet."

After Rhett finished explaining, Matthew stood up. "Thank you once again, Mr. Wyatt. This is a small token of my appreciation. I hope you won't mind."

Once Matthew was done, he placed a small wooden box on the table, which Rhett curiously opened after Matthew had left.

There was only a neatly folded note inside, and when Rhett unfolded the note, his eyes lit up instantly. There were just over a hundred words written on it. It was the formula for the Divine Skill Pill.

"This kid, he's given me a difficult task." That pill could indeed be considered a miracle elixir, but making it involved a large number of precious herbs. In other words, if this pill was to be mass-produced to meet the entire Cathay market, it would take them several years just to cultivate the herbs needed.

"This has added to my workload! I have such a busy life." As he said that, he massaged his arm while looking full of melancholy yet longing. What kind of scene would it be if Cathay entered an era where everyone could practice martial arts?

The more Rhett imagined, the brighter his eyes became.

"I'll leave this matter to you, Dylan. Find suitable areas to cultivate these herbs as soon as possible. I want to see these precious herbs sprouting next year."

Dylan, who was standing on the side, smiled knowingly at the renewed vitality of his master.

"Yes, Master Wyatt. I promise to complete the task."
