Preston smiled faintly after taking three sips of the medicine and wrote on the paper. He listed down all


    the herbs in the medicine.


    When he was halfway through, he took another sip to ensure he did everything correctly. When he was


    sure of his judgment, he listed the rest of the ingredients. It took him less than 10 minutes.


    “I’m done.” Preston raised his hand to inform the invigtors that he finished. Although he spoke softly,


    he managed to attract the attention of everyone in the hall.


    “Is he serious? He’s finished already in such a short time?”


    “Hmph! I don’t believe he’s that good. I bet he just guessed the herbs!”


    The crowd whispered among themselves. Some were amazed, while some were doubtful.


    “Let me check.” The invigtor went to Preston and took his answer script. His eyes immediately lit up


    after going through the list.


    “Not bad at all. Your answers are all correct. There’s not a single mistake. Perfect score.” The invigtor


    praised.


    An uproar broke out among the crowd at that.


    “Damn it! Did he get a perfect score? Is he that good?”


    “As expected of Dr. Darby’s best student! He lives up to his name!”


    “Fuck! I haven’t written a word, and he’s already listed every ingredient and is continuing to the next


    test. We’re not evenpeting at the same level.”


    The crowd was shocked. Preston’s talent showed them how much theycked medical skills and


    knowledge. They had no hopes of getting first ce. So, they could only focus and try for second or


    third ce.


    “I’m done too.” Right then, Miranda raised her hand.


    The invigtor approached her and nodded in satisfaction when he saw her answers. “Very good.


    Perfect score as well.”


    “Another perfect score? Aren’t they too good at this?”


    “Oh man… What can I say? They’re way too good for people like us.


    “They are terrifying! I don’t think I’m cut out for this. I’m giving up!”


    Miranda’s perfect score destroyed everyone’s spirit. Many could not stand the pressure and chose

    to give up.


    “Hey, buddy! Are you not done yet? Do you need some help?” Preston turned to look at Dustin, a


    sarcastic smile on his face.


    “Preston, I think he needs some help. He hasn’t even written a word!” Miranda turned to look at


    Dustin’s paper and covered her mouth to hide her snigger. She looked just like a mean bitch.


    “No way! It’s such a simple test! You can’t even manage to think of a single herb? My, aren’t you a


    dumbass?” Preston mocked him, exaggerating his words.


    “What’s the rush? We have lots of time,” Dustin answered casually.


    “No matter how much time you have, it won’t change anything. Trash will always be trash. It doesn’t


    matter how hard you struggle. You’re never going to seed.” Preston taunted.


    “I say, stop struggling and just be Preston’s dog. At least he might give you a bone when he feels like


    it,” Miranda said with a smirk.


    “Are you sure that you’re going to be the winner?” Dustin asked suddenly.


    “Why not? We’ve both scored full marks, and you have not even written a word. Isn’t it obvious who the


    winner will be?” Preston’s lips curled into a mean smile.


    “Well, seeing how confident you are, I’ll teach you a lesson today.” Without another word, Dustin


    quickly wrote a long list of ingredients on the paper


    He wrote with great ease, without any hesitation. The crowd was stunned and amazed, wondering if he


    was secretly an expert.


    Even Preston and Miranda were flustered. He wrote so fast and withplete certainty. They began to


    doubt if they had chosen the wrong person to bully.


    “Done.” While everyone was still shocked by Dustin’s fast writing, he had already submitted his answer


    to the invigtor.


    The invigtor frowned when he saw Dustin’s answer. Then, in a frosty voice, he said, “Wrong answer.


    You get zero marks!”
