Chapter 860 Know Nothing About Beast Curing

Similar to the beast evaluation competition, the beast curing competition was to see who could best diagnose the injuries and illnesses of the spirit-manipulated beast and then administer proper treatment. The five judges would review the diagnoses and the treatment methods adopted by the competitors before coming to a conclusion about the winner.

This competition also had three rounds, so the clan which won two or more rounds would become the ultimate winner. To be claimed the champion, a clan would need to defeat all three beast curers from the other clan.

After the first beast curers of both the clans assumed their positions, two spirit-manipulated beasts, which looked rather weak, were brought out and placed on the table in front for them to make a diagnosis.

Wasting no time, Travis and the beast curer from the Qi Clan immediately began checking their respective beasts.

Amidst this tense atmosphere, the audience couldn't help but notice something strange. Although the beast curer from the Qi Clan had finished his diagnosis and started administering the corresponding treatment on his beast, Travis was still taking his time on his diagnosis. He looked rather laid-back as if he was on vacation and not at a competition.

"What the hell is our brother doing?" Mary asked with a perplexed expression on her face. She knew Travis's ability well; by right, he should have finished diagnosing the beast long ago. So why was he standing there doing nothing?

The members of the Cao Clan had also noticed Travis's abnormal behavior and exchanged confused glances with each other. It almost seemed like he was slacking off on purpose.

On the other side, Alexander, the chief of the Qi Clan, cracked a knowing smile in their waiting area.

"I bet the Cao Clan won't be able to figure out what's going on even if they rack their brains for an explanation. Who would have imagined that something like this would happen at such a critical moment?" he sneered.

"Those who do not have justice on their side will get little help. They should blame themselves for going against the will of the people," Tate added and cast a stern glance at the Cao Clan on the other side.

"The princess has promised us that she will announce our clan as the first clan of the Timber Deity Empire if we defeat the Cao Clan this time. It's a pity that the princess and the other princes aren't here to watch the competition in person due to His Majesty's sudden summon. If the princess was here, the Cao Clan would have to submit to us rig

h a smirk, glancing at Mary. Then, he looked at Lucilla for her opinion. As long as Lucilla agreed, things would go smoothly.

However, Lucilla still hesitated, unable to make up her mind.

"Right now, we have no other choice but to try Mr. Rookie's idea," Lucas chimed in from behind. Even if they called other beast curers from their clan now, there was no telling if they would be able to win the competition. Besides, they didn't have the time. On the other hand, it was clear that Rocky had a plan. Lucas was inclined to trust him since he had witnessed firsthand how Rocky had won the beast evaluation contest for them the other day. If there was any chance of them winning, it would be because of Rocky. They had no choice but to place a bet on him.

Lucilla trusted Lucas, so she was finally swayed by his words. She bit her lip and turned to Juey. "All right, Miss Juey, get ready for the coming round. You're our only hope, so do your best! Don't let us down."

Although Lucilla's words were meant to be encouraging, Juey became a little uneasy after hearing them. She had promised Rocky that she would go all out, but this was the first time she would ever participate in a contest, so she felt nervous. Besides, she was worried that she wouldn't be able to win.

Seeing the anxious expression on her face, Rocky walked over to her and smiled. He took out the surgical tools bag that he usually used and handed it to her. "Don't forget your promise to me. Just do your best. I know you can do it!"

Looking at the ground, Juey took a deep breath. Then, she raised her head and nodded firmly at Rocky. Slowly but steadily, she reached out her hands and took the bag from him.
