Generally speaking, it was rare for someone to cause trouble on the opening day of another party's business, even if the relationship between the two parties was not good. It would be akin to backing someone into a corner.
When Matthew learned about the identity of the other party, his dissatisfaction grew even stronger.
Seraphis was known for having a lower level of medical expertise in Cathay.
These old alternative medicine doctors didn’t prioritize the development of their medical skills. Instead, they were always focused on sabotaging each other.
Advancing the study of medicine was supposed to be a collective effort where the doctors learned from each other and made progress together.
However, these three old alternative medicine doctors were only concerned about their own interests. They were probably not good people.
While Matthew was contemplating, the three old men had already approached him.
Since the medical competition had just ended and Hulwin had limited communication with Cathay due to the fact that it was a remote place, the three of them only knew that there was a new Holy Doctor in Cathay, but they had no idea about his name or what he looked like.
Therefore, even when these three old men were in front of Matthew, they did not recognize Matthew.
The old alternative medicine doctor in the lead, Mr. Riley, snorted coldly and glanced at Matthew with disdain.
Then, with a contemptuous tone, he said, "Young man, it is important to know oneself. Grayson Zahn's medical skills are not even at one-tenth of our skill level. I advise you to take down the sign that claims you can cure all diseases to avoid any accidents and trouble for yourself. What do you think?"
After speaking, he raised his chin proudly and waited for Matthew's response.
The other two old men behind him also showed disgust on their faces. They closed their eyes and shook their heads repeatedly.
Upon hearing Mr. Riley's words, Grayson's face immediately turned dark.
Seeing Grayson’s reaction, Mr. Riley sneered, "What's wrong? Are you not convinced? With your level of medical skills, you can barely sustain this small clinic. Do you really deserve to claim that you can cure all diseases?"
"First, they offended the Yarwoods, and now they offend the three renowned alternative medicine practitioners in Hulwin. Their clinic is probably going to go bankrupt soon."
Only when Mr. Riley signaled did the disciples stop mocking Matthew.
"Young man, it's not a bad thing to be full of enthusiasm, but you also need to have some restraint. You don't even show basic respect for your elders. It's difficult to sustain a medical clinic in the long run this way, young man." Mr. Riley's tone carried a hint of threat.
Matthew narrowed his eyes. "What do you want then?"
He was expressing impatience, but to the other party, it seemed like he was admitting defeat.
With his chin held high in arrogance, Mr. Riley remained silent.
His disciples, on the other hand, were smart enough to step forward and act as their master's mouthpiece.
