The judges had no choice but to look towards the person in charge for guidance.
"What are you waiting for? Start scoring!"
"My teacher will definitely get a perfect score this time!" Natasha shouted.
The crowd also started calling out, demanding a perfect score for Jiang Yi.
Seeing that the person in charge had not made a decision, the judges began to grow anxious.
"Everyone, please be quiet. Although Mr. Jiang's scar removal cream is miraculous, who knows if there are any side effects?"
"Furthermore, Traditional Chinese Medicine is generally weak. How can it have such miraculous efficacy? There must be something wrong here!"
"Therefore, the scoring will be discussed later!" The person in charge spoke directly.
As soon as these words were spoken, the audience erupted.
No one expected the person in charge to come up with such an excuse. This was clearly targeting Jiang Yi. Although it wasn't very obvious, everyone present knew what was going on.
However, no one said anything.
They believed in Western medicine and naturally did not want to see Traditional Chinese Medicine rise.
Natasha was furious.
"You're not letting the judges score my teacher, which is clearly targeting him!"
"You're afraid my teacher will become the champion of today's competition, so you're using such despicable means to target him!"
"I know why you're doing this. Someone must have bribed you. Was it Jiang Tian and Lu Ming who bribed you? I saw you exchanging knowing glances with them earlier!" Natasha said directly.
Hearing this, the expressions of the person in charge, Jiang Tian, and Lu Ming turned grim. If this matter were exposed, they would be in big trouble!
"It's truly unexpected that the esteemed Drug Administration would do such a thing!" Natasha continued.
"You're slandering me! You have no evidence, and I can sue you for defamation!" The person in charge said angrily.
"This matter is self-evident, why would we need evidence?"
"If you really want evidence, the Grand Lord is here. As long as the Grand Lord orders a thorough investigation into this matter, finding evidence will be very easy, not difficult at all!" Natasha stated.
Hearing this, a cold smile appeared on the person in charge's face.
Even Jiang Tian and Lu Ming also sneered.
This was because they knew that Barry was also very resistant to Traditional Chinese Medicine and had suppressed TCM practitioners in Simon State.
In their opinion, with this situation, Barry would definitely be on their side, and Barry would never help Jiang Yi.
"Today is indeed interesting. I've witnessed such an unbelievable scene!" Barry said with a strange cold smile.
"Grand Lord, I know you have a prejudice against Traditional Chinese Medicine. This matter can be left to us to handle, don't worry, we will definitely not let Traditional Chinese Medicine win this competition." The person in charge said respectfully.
"Slap!"
Barry raised his hand and slapped the person in charge directly.
This slap stunned the person in charge.
"Grand Lord, did I say something wrong?" The person in charge covered his face, his expression full of confusion.
"Not only did you say the wrong thing, but you also did the wrong thing!" Barry snorted coldly and said angrily, "When did I ever say I had a prejudice against Traditional Chinese Medicine? I did deal with doctors who used TCM in the past, but they were all quacks."
"As long as they are quacks, whether they are TCM or Western medicine practitioners, I will deal with them. What you just said was clearly an attempt to tarnish my reputation."
Upon hearing this, the person in charge broke out in a cold sweat.
"Also, I came to observe the competition wanting to see a fair and just contest, but you resort to such tricks? I stayed silent, did you think I was a fool?" Barry reprimanded angrily.
The person in charge's legs went weak. Hearing Barry's tone, he knew he wouldn't be let off easily and his fate would be dire.
The smiles on Jiang Tian and Lu Ming's faces also vanished. With Barry's involvement, their plan was no longer feasible.
Moreover, if the person in charge exposed them, they wouldn't escape either.
"I'll let this debt slide for now. You continue to host the competition, and after it's over, I'll decide how to deal with you!" Barry said sternly.
"Thank you, Grand Lord!" The person in charge quickly responded, letting out a long sigh of relief.
Barry letting him continue hosting the competition meant he still had a chance to survive.
Jiang Tian and Lu Ming also breathed a sigh of relief.
Barry glanced at Jiang Yi, then withdrew his gaze and said to the person in charge, "His scar removal cream is truly astonishing. It's something ordinary Western medicine cannot compare to!"
"Yes, yes..." The person in charge quickly agreed.
Then, the person in charge addressed the judges, "You can start scoring now. Remember, be fair and just!"
Upon hearing this, the judges began to score Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi directly received a perfect score of one hundred.
No one in the audience had any objections; Jiang Yi's scar removal cream was indeed miraculous. It was not surprising to receive such a high score.
Jiang Tian and Lu Ming frowned deeply. With Lu Ming's skills, he couldn't possibly create such a miraculous scar removal cream. Therefore, Lu Ming had no chance of winning against Jiang Yi in this competition.
"Teacher, you will definitely be the champion of this competition!"
"You got a perfect score in the first round, and the second round tomorrow is your strong suit, so you'll definitely get a perfect score too!" Natasha said to Jiang Yi with a smile.
Jiang Yi smiled and said nothing. Winning such a simple competition was normal for him. No matter what tricks Jiang Tian and Lu Ming used, Lu Ming's skills were no match for Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi glanced at the other contestants who were still making scar removal cream on the high platform, raised his eyebrows, and then walked towards a small courtyard beside them. They couldn't beat him, so staying here was pointless.
Jiang Yi planned to secure a room to stay in and wait for the second round of the competition the next day.
To his surprise, Natasha had already booked the room, one of the most luxurious rooms in the castle. Moreover, the room's window directly faced the plaza, allowing one to see everyone on the plaza from the window.
Jiang Yi examined the room and found it to be a suite with a kitchen, a bathroom, and a large balcony, which even had a small swimming pool!
"Teacher, are you hungry?" Natasha asked. "I'm a bit hungry, how about I go get some ingredients and we cook together? I don't know what ingredients you need, so please write me a list!"
Ever since Natasha had eaten the nourishing soup personally prepared by Jiang Yi earlier, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva whenever she thought of its taste! It wasn't even mealtime yet, and Natasha was already craving it.
