Chapter 109: Volunteer Test

Ning could only think of a single way to remove the Yin Qi and he did exactly that. 

Elder Neal and the lady watching him perform his dance and looked in puzzlement. The lady was curious as to why he would suddenly cry out in pain, only to start dancing immediately after.

Elder Neal on the other hand was fuming with rage, seeing everything happening. Ning had not only cured the patient that was meant for him but had now cried out in victory as well as was dancing in joy. 

His anger didn't let him see the real situation.

As soon as he reached the climax of dancing, Motes of lights were entering his body. So, he stopped the Yin to Sound conversion technique. 

The Yin Qi immediately entered his body once more and started attacking his body, but this time, there were defenders inside of him. 

The Qi that destroyed any inkling of Yin or Yang Qi were fighting furiously to destroy all the Yin Qi. While Sun God's Morning Cleansing technique no longer help him cultivate his body, there were other applications for it. 

It took him a while, but soon all the Yin Qi were destroyed by the other Qi. Ning finally stopped dancing and sighed with relief. 

"Thank god I knew that technique," he whispered to himself.

"Are you finally done dancing?" Elder Neal looked at him in anger. 

"Oh yeah," he said. He then turned to the lady and said," since you are fine, let's leave."

"Umm… the payment?" she asked. 

Ning looked at Elder Neal with a smile creeping on his face. "It's free," he said. 

"Wait, no. It will cost you money. You took my time and that costs money," Elder Neal hurriedly said 

"Oh, how much is it then, Doctor?" she asked.

"It's… um… 1 gold coin," Elder Neal said. He really couldn't say any higher price or he would get complained about once again. 

The girl took out a gold coin and left with Ning. Ning reminded her not to cultivate ever with that technique and returned back to the room. 

Elder Neal looked like a tomato with a face so red with anger, that Ning nearly didn't recognize him. Ning waited for him to say something, but he just didn't speak.

'Holy sh*t, just how angry is he? He must be cooking up some god knows what plan in his mind right now,' Ning thought. 

The rest of the day passed normally. People came, got treated, and were sent back. Elder Neal no longer spoke that day with Ning aside from simple orders.

At the end of the day, Ning went back to his cottage.

The rest of the week passed in the same way as the first two. He was made to attend the lesser liked physicians, especially the arrogant ones that thought they could do no harm.

Ning tried to stay out of trouble until the day of the exam and got into no extra drama. 

Finally, a week later, it was time for the volunteer exam. He had learned a few more things regarding volunteers during his free time and was fully ready for the exam. 

He walked into the exam hall early morning and saw that only a few others were there before him. More people started appearing and soon, the hall was full. 

After a few more minutes, a new elder walked in. Ning had never seen this elder before, which meant he was one of the better ones in the guild. 

"I hope all of you are hereby now. We will be starting the volunteering test soon." The elder took a stack of paper and passed it around the room. 

"Alright, I will be asking questions, and you guys can simply write down your answers. You guys will have a minute to answer each question. If you cannot do it by then, you are just not good enough."

"I won't be waiting for anyone and will simply keep on giving out new questions," the elder said. 

Everyone nodded and got ready for the questions. 

"Question 1. The patient has a broken arm, what do you do?" the elder asked. The question was a simple one that anyone striving to be a volunteer could easily know. 

'Send them to the physician,' Ning jotted down. That was what the volunteers were made to do. 

Volunteers could only treat illnesses or conditions that did not require making different pastes or powders. They were also not allowed to treat big medical problems and would have to refer the patients to the physician.

"Time's up. Question 2. The patient has a problem in their upper chest. You notice a red spot right above their collarbone. What do you do?"

"Question 3. The patient is a young man around 10 years of age and is suffering from headaches. You notice their eyes are sunken and their ears are slightly pale. What do you do?" 

.

.

"Question 7. This young lady has a back problem and doesn't know the cause of it. What questions do you ask to find out the answers?"

.

.

"Question 10. A Qi Condensation realm cultivator comes in with pain on their arm. What procedure do you take to find out the cause?"

.

.

"Question 15. A Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator cannot collect Qi anymore after breaking through. What is the cause?"

Questions came out of the examiner's mouth one after another, every single minute. Ning would listen to the question and come up with the best answer he could without giving away the fact that he had knowledge out of the sect as well.

Soon, the elder asked the final question.

"And finally, Question 25. A patient came in with a disease and you find out that it is highly contagious, what do you do?" 

Ning nodded and quickly answered the question on his sheet of paper. Once a minute was passed, the elder asked everyone to stop writing and leave the room immediately. 

Ning made sure his paper had his name on it and left the exam hall.
