Chapter 162 - Lying Fairy

'Little runt' Shen Ci: "..."

He very much suspected that senior Hades wanted to say he was the runt but had changed his wording because he was afraid of being roasted by the stream comments...

"Ten years?" Although he was prepared for this, Li Jianyu was still shocked by this number.

Suppose a medical student graduated at the age of 25 or 26, they would be in their thirties before they gained ten years of medical experience.

In traditional conventions, TCM practitioners got better with age. After all, age symbolized experience.

Yet Xiang Yi had broken everyone's expectations!

Seven or eight years old… Most people were still in the first grade when Xiang Yi had begun learning clinical TCM prescriptions??!

Xiang Yi responded calmly. "Mhmm. I learned it for a decade or so and received my TCM practitioners certificate in my first year of university."

Li Jianyu: "Ah, I see. Yi mei, fighting!"

Jiang Chen, who was a beat behind everyone: ...!!!

'Ah ah ah I should be the first one to flatter sis!'

However, Li Jianyu underestimated the determination of the haters.

——[Let me circle the keywords. Prescribing medication at the age of seven or eight, and received the certification in her first year of university. But! She personally admitted that her university degree was in agriculture! This is conflicting. Did she just reveal herself?!]

——[Why is Hades covering for her so much? If she was treating people at the age of seven or eight, isn't that still illegal medical practice? How sly]

——[Hahaha I expect no less of the Fake Fairy. Based on her logic, I attend college in Beijing, so I can get a certificate from Tsinghua University?]

…

Some netizens were too eager to search Xiang Yi up on Weibo.

This time, in addition to the Fake Fairy tag, they also added the nickname Lying Fairy.

There were a few female celebrities in similar degrees of popularity with Xiang Yi. Seeing her popularity rise, they began to feel slightly threatened. Immediately, they had paid out a hoard of navy members to try and put out the fire that was about to be Xiang Yi's rise to fame.

Lying was not too big a shortcoming on its own, but as long as they rode the waves, it was easy to ruin her reputation and continue to fuel the public's hatred of Xiang Yi.

Soon, several cryptic messages began appearing in the comment section.

——[Congratulations, Xiang Yi, on receiving the Nobel Prize for Traditional Chinese Medicine~]

——[Started practicing at seven, huh? Even Hua Tuo will have to call you master if he was alive]

——[You guys are all mistaken, the Lying Fairy is actually a witch doctor, specializing in poisoning and seducing men. If you don't believe me, just look at Shi Yingdi, Hades, the boys from Sea7, Director Li Jianyu… Which one of them hasn't been desperate to defend her?]

…

When #LyingXiangYi# began to trend on the search terms, a TCM blogger suddenly posted a Weibo —

[One TCM tip a day]: Our country's TCM qualification exam is an industry admission examination. How can it be explained? Simply put, it evaluates whether you have the ability and knowledge to practice as a physician.

Normally, applicants must have a major in Chinese medicine and intern at a hospital or a health clinic, which means you must not only know theory but have experience in practice as well.

However, there is a system of apprenticeship or master and disciple process for TCM in our country. That is, well-known masters can take in apprentices, like a father taking in a son. So, our country has that special examination method as well.

Basically, this is the traditional qualification method for physicians and doctors. Using layman's terms: If you have a master, and your master is a TCM physician, as long as you study under him for over three years and your master thinks you're adequate, ok, you can take the test! As long as you pass, you can be certified!

When this Weibo was posted, nobody paid attention.
