Chapter 221 Disqualification from the Competition
The judges exchanged glances and discussed for a moment before the judge in the middle looked at Kong Wange and said, "Okay, let's do it your way. Is there any volunteer willing..."
Upon seeing this, the volunteers nearby all took a step back in unison.
Judge: "..."
Seeing the tense atmosphere, a voice suddenly approached and said, "Little girl, stab me."
Kong Wange looked over at the sound and saw an elderly man with white hair approaching, who even extended his arm.
It was Mr. Feng, the judge who announced her group's first place winner in the previous round.
Seeing that Mr. Feng had a kind face and encouraging eyes, she nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, Mr. Feng."
After saying that, she took a deep breath and began to administer acupuncture.
The organizers prepared forty-nine needles for each candidate. Apart from the nine needles Wen Xiaoxiao had, there were forty more in her box. Careful observers would notice that Kong Wange took the needles from the right side of the needle case this time.
After more than a dozen needles had been inserted, unfortunately, Old Feng showed no abnormalities whatsoever.
Wen Xiaoxiao was puzzled and asked, "Teacher, don't you feel anything?"
Old Feng glanced at Wen Xiaoxiao and said indifferently, "Yes."
Wen Xiaoxiao was now reassured and said, "How could I not feel anything!"
However, the next second, she heard Old Feng say, "It feels especially comfortable."
Wen Xiaoxiao: "?"
Old Feng turned to look at Kong Wange and exclaimed, "Little girl, your acupuncture skills are quite good! You're quick, the pressure is just right, and you pinpoint the acupoints accurately. It's clear you've put in the effort to learn. I feel so comfortable after your needles!"
Kong Wange smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Teacher Feng."
Old Feng smiled and said, "It seems that your acupuncture skills are not a problem."
Clearly, Mr. Feng held a very high position among the judges, and no one objected to his words.
Kong Wange removed the needles one by one and put them into the box.
Continuing from what Elder Feng said, she said with a wronged expression, "Distinguished judges, as you can see, the problem is not with me. Now I suspect that Wen is jealous of my medical skills and is afraid that I will take her admission spot, so she deliberately applied the medicine to herself to frame me!"
Everyone was shocked when these words were spoken.
Wen Xiaoxiao was also stunned. Pointing at Kong Wange, she trembled and said, "What are you saying? Our Wen family is a family of doctors, and I am also from a prestigious family. With my abilities, why would I lower myself to frame you?"
Kong Wange glared at her angrily: "Stop trying to flatter yourself. You talk a good game, but why didn't you beat me in the last match? You didn't beat me in the last match, and now you're in the same group as me again. Are you scared, so you've resorted to dirty tricks to harm me!"
Wen Xiaoxiao panicked and blurted out, "You...you're talking nonsense, I...it's because of my constitution...I..."
Kong Wange scoffed, "Oh, you just said it was my fault for inserting the needles, and now you're saying it's your fault?"
After she finished speaking lightly, she turned to the judges and said, "Teachers, I request that Wen Xiaoxiao be searched. She must have evidence on her that she framed me!"
Upon hearing this, Wen Xiaoxiao suddenly felt at ease. She had already thrown away the medicine bottle, so where would she get any evidence?
She looked around at everyone and said in a high-sounding manner, "Teachers, I have nothing to hide. You can search me, but what if you can't find any evidence and discover that I was framed?"
Kong Wange spoke first: "If no evidence can be found, I will voluntarily withdraw from the competition!"
"Okay, you said it yourself." Wen Xiaoxiao turned to the judges with a wronged look on her face and said, "Teachers, let's search."
Originally, everyone was hesitant to actually search the body because of the Wen family's power, but now that Wen Xiaoxiao had agreed, with Old Master Feng's permission, a female proctor stepped forward to search her.
Wen Xiaoxiao was wearing a puffy skirt with a very simple design, featuring only a few small pockets on the left and right sides. She quickly finished searching.
The female proctor stepped aside and said, "Mr. Feng, no."
Wen Xiaoxiao's arrogance flared instantly: "Kong Wange, keep your word! You deliberately slandered me, you're morally corrupt, withdraw from the competition immediately!"
Kong Wange said lightly, "What's the rush? I haven't even looked at your bag yet."
As she spoke, she took three steps in two, picked up Wen Xiaoxiao's bag, opened it with her left hand, and quickly rummaged through it with her right hand, pulling out a medicine bottle and saying, "What's this?!"
Wen Xiaoxiao was stunned. Looking at the bottle, an ominous premonition suddenly rose in her heart.
Seeing this, several judges gathered around Kong Wange, opened the bottle, and smelled it.
One of the judges' expressions darkened slightly: "It's Tianfeng Hemp."
Everyone present was a medical student; how could anyone not know what Tianfengma was?
When this herb is applied to the body, it will quickly cause a red rash that is hot and itchy, indicating its strong medicinal effect.
"My god, Wen Xiaoxiao is ruthless enough to actually poison herself!"
"As expected of someone from a powerful and wealthy family, they're incredibly stubborn and have a big heart! Amazing!"
Amidst the surrounding chatter, Old Feng said with a stern face, "Wen Xiaoxiao, do you have anything else to explain?"
Wen Xiaoxiao suddenly realized what was happening and snatched the medicine bottle from her: "Teacher Feng, don't believe her. I've been wronged."
As she spoke, she pointed at Kong Wange and said, "It was you. You put the bottle in my bag, didn't you?"
Kong Wange retorted righteously, "Wen Xiaoxiao, do I need to do this? I'm better than you in every way, why would I need to frame you? Besides, you were the one who attacked me first, weren't you?"
Wen Xiaoxiao took a step back in disbelief: "You're talking nonsense, you're framing me! I had this thing thrown away a long time ago, it's impossible for it to still be in my bag!"
"Oh, so you admit it's yours." Kong Wange's eyes crinkled into a smile.
Wen Xiaoxiao suddenly realized what was happening and cursed wildly, "You bitch!"
It lunged at Kong Wange with its claws outstretched.
Seeing this, the proctor quickly stepped forward to stop her.
Looking at the woman in front of him who seemed to be insane, Old Feng sighed: "Candidate Wen Xiaoxiao maliciously framed a fellow candidate in the same examination room. She is unrepentant, has a terrible attitude, and her behavior is outrageous. I hereby announce that she is disqualified from the competition and banned from the competition for three sessions as a warning to others."
Wen Xiaoxiao was dragged out. After a brief discussion, order was restored in the arena, and everyone returned to the competition that had just been completed.
Half an hour later, the competition ended, and the judges announced the final results and rankings on the spot.
Despite deliberately concealing her true strength, Kong Wange, a master of score control, secured tenth place and successfully earned a spot in the Imperial Academy.
Looking at the acceptance letter in her hand, she smiled with satisfaction and walked out with the others.
Along the way, all the candidates were whispering about what had just happened at the competition, and their words were full of complaints about Wen Xiaoxiao.
She was enjoying the conversation when, after leaving the stadium, she was stopped after only a few steps.
She looked up and saw a face contorted with rage.
Wen Xiaoxiao and her servants had been waiting for Kong Wange for a long time. When she saw her come out, she immediately blocked her way and said, "Kong Wange, I'll remember you. Do you really think you can get into the Imperial Academy by getting rid of me? You wait, the Wen family will not let you get away with this!"
