Chapter 580
“To ensure a fair fight and make you acknowledge that Solean Medicine is just an offshoot of Goryeon Medicine, I will leave the preparation of the herbs to Herbal Biotech.”
Jonathan was seld-assured. Jay knew this would be the last opportunity Solean Medicine have. If James was defeated, Solean Medicine would completely lose its credibility and from today onwards, the world would see Solean Medicine as Goryeon Medicine.
Thus, he personally chose the herbs.
He randomly chose a thousand of them.
The herbs each of the participants would receive were different.
Soon, two huge boxes were lifted onto the stage.
They were sealed and only had a single opening just big enough for a hand to fit through it. Jay looked at James and Jonathan and said, “The herbs were chosen randomly. Each box has different herbs in it. Choose one.”
James glanced at Jonathan. “You may go first.”
Jonathan pointed at one of the boxes.
After his selection, the staff separated the boxes.
All other necessary equipment was also prepared-tables, papers, pens, blindfolds, and the like. They each stood before a box and wore blindfolds.
Meanwhile, a few assistants stood by their sides.
They were there to seal the herbs and the answers together to determine the results after James and Jonathan had identified the herbs and jotted down their answers.
Delilah stood in the middle and questioned the participants. “Are you ready?” James and Jonathan said in unison, “Yes.” “Ready… Three… Two… One… Start!” A countdown of ten minutes appeared on the LCD TV behind the stage.
Jonathan immediately reached into the box and grabbed a herb. After sniffing it, he put it aside and swiftly wrote the answer.
Meanwhile, the staff hurriedly sealed the answers and the herbs away.
There were cameras all over the hall. There were no dead angles which meant there was no room for cheating. While Jonathan had already identified a number of herbs, James simply stood motionless. The crowd became increasingly worried. “Hurry up!”
“What are you standing there for? Get moving!”
They were all anxious for James.
“We’ll be humiliated if you lose!”
