Visitors from the Medical Institute
A few days later, the Fourth Division.
People from the Shin'ō Medical Institute have arrived.
There weren't many people, but their presence was significant.
The leader was a middle-aged man wearing the uniform of the Shin'ō Medical Institute.
His name is Sōya, and he is currently the agent of the Shin'ō Medical Institute and a retainer of the Tsunayashiro Clan.
He was followed by several young doctors, all of noble birth, with arrogant eyes.
When they entered the Fourth Division's clinic, their gazes swept over every member of the Fourth Division present, as if they were looking at a pile of worthless things.
The members of the Fourth Division stood to the side, their expressions respectful.
They all knew these people came with ill intentions, but no one dared to offend the people from Shin'ō Medical Institute.
This is the territory of the nobles. If you offend them, you can forget about living in the Seireitei in the future.
Moreover, if they perform well, they might gain the favor of these nobles and perhaps even achieve great success.
Kiyōnosuke Yamada stood before the crowd, his hands tucked into his sleeves, his expression calm.
He glanced at the arrogant noble physicians but made no comment.
After all, these people might be his future colleagues.
Sōya walked to the center of the examination room and stopped.
"Gentlemen of the Fourth Division, I have long admired your name."
His voice was gentle, but his tone carried a condescending air.
"We're here today to exchange medical experience with your team."
"After all, the Shin'ō Medical Institute is about to expand and needs more talent. I've heard that the Fourth Division is full of hidden masters, so I've come to seek their advice."
The young doctors behind him chuckled softly.
That laughter was full of contempt.
The members of the Fourth Division sized each other up, but dared not show any unusual expression.
He claimed to be asking for advice, but anyone with eyes could see that he was more like someone looking for trouble.
Ignoring their reactions, Sōya took a medical record from the person behind him.
"We have a case here, and we would like to ask the Fourth Division for their guidance."
He opened the medical record, his tone indifferent.
"This is a patient whose Reiatsu has collapsed and whose spirit is on the verge of breaking down. Our clinic has tried many methods, but to no avail."
He raised his head and glanced at the members of the Fourth Division present.
"I wonder if anyone in the Fourth Division, besides the captain and vice-captain, can offer any suggestions?"
The examination room fell silent, and the members of the Fourth Division looked at each other in bewilderment.
A soul tear—the number of people in the entire Fourth Division who can heal such an injury can be counted on one hand.
Seeing their reactions, Sōya's lips curled into a slight smile.
His self-illuminating light swept across everyone, finally landing on Wang Xun.
He had seen the photo; this man was their target.
But... why does he look so sickly and weak?
"You're the Fourth Seat?"
Wang Xun nodded.
"Yes."
Sōya looked him up and down.
"I heard you were directly appointed as the Fourth Seat by Captain Unohana, so your Kaidō skills must be quite high."
"Can we see it today?"
He threw the medical record on the table, and the atmosphere in the examination room instantly froze.
The members of the Fourth Division exchanged glances, but none of them dared to utter a sound.
Kiyōnosuke Yamada frowned slightly, but he didn't move; he just looked at Wang Xun.
Wang Xun remained silent.
He walked to the table, picked up the medical record, and glanced at it.
"I've reviewed the file. Where is the patient?"
Sōya hadn't expected Wang Xun to be so direct.
They didn't even finish reading the patient's medical record before asking where the patient was.
"It's right outside the door."
Sōya's lips curled up slightly.
"Bring him in."
Sōya waved his hand, and two young doctors pushed in a hospital bed.
A middle-aged man lay on the bed, his face pale, his lips purple, and his breathing weak.
His Reiatsu was almost imperceptible, as if it might dissipate at any moment.
Wang Xun walked to the bedside and placed his hand on the patient's forehead.
A pale green Kaidō Reiatsu probed into the patient's body, and after a moment, he withdrew his hand.
"It's a tear in the soul."
He turned around and looked at Sōya.
"What methods did your pharmacy use?"
"We used a standard Reiatsu stabilization technique, combined with Reishi replenishment agent. But the effect was not good; the patient's Reiatsu continued to dissipate."
Wang Xun nodded, walked back to the bedside, took a deep breath, and raised his hands.
That's true, but Wang Xun knew it was a lie.
They didn't treat this person at all; now, the hidden wound deep in this person's soul is truly hanging by a thread.
The patient may die at any moment during treatment.
So that's what they were planning.
However, for Wang Xun, it was used in the wrong place.
A pale green Kaidō Reiatsu seeped from his fingertips, splitting into two streams.
Double Kaidō spellcasting is his most proficient technique.
The examination room fell silent.
Everyone watched Wang Xun's hands, watching the fine Reiatsu threads at his fingertips weave through the patient's body.
His movements were slow, but every step was incredibly precise.
Sōya stood to the side, his expression gradually shifting from one of detached amusement to one of seriousness.
He had never seen Wang Xun's methods before.
That wasn't a standard technique, nor was it some advanced skill; it was a method of implementation that he couldn't understand at all.
This person's Kaidō was incredibly powerful?
Although he understood it clearly, he would never be able to do it to the same degree as Wang Xun.
Sōya was so engrossed in watching that he realized the patient's condition was indeed gradually stabilizing, and he finally remembered his mission.
He felt a pang of panic and wanted to speak up to stop them, but he didn't know what to say.
After a moment, Wang Xun withdrew his hands and gently exhaled.
The patient in the hospital bed has regained a normal complexion, is breathing steadily, and has stable Reiatsu.
"Alright."
Wang Xun turned around and looked at Sōya.
"The patient is out of danger for now; however, a suitable plan needs to be developed for the remaining follow-up treatment."
The examination room was deathly silent.
The people at the pharmacy looked at Wang Xun with shock in their eyes.
They knew Wang Xun was powerful, but they didn't expect him to be this powerful.
Kiyōnosuke Yamada stood in the corner, his hands tucked into his sleeves, his expression calm.
But a slight smile curved the corners of his mouth.
Sōya's face turned pale and then flushed.
He looked at the patient on the hospital bed, then at Wang Xun, his lips trembling, unable to utter a single word.
"This, this is impossible..."
He murmured.
"How could such an injury stabilize so quickly..."
Wang Xun looked at him calmly.
"Sōya, the patient's condition has stabilized. If you don't believe me, you can examine him again."
Sōya remained silent.
The young doctors behind him looked at each other, none of them daring to step forward.
They all knew that what Wang Xun said was true.
The patient's Reiatsu has stabilized.
Is there anything else you'd like to advise me on?
Wang Xun asked.
Sōya's face turned bright red.
He was originally instructed by the Tsunayashiro Clan to suppress a guy named Wang Xun in the Fourth Division.
Unexpectedly, this guy's Kaidō skills were actually able to heal this kind of injury.
"You..."
He pointed at Wang Xun, his fingers trembling.
Wang Xun looked at him without saying a word.
The examination room was so quiet you could hear a heartbeat.
Then, a voice came from the doorway.
"Sōya Muneya, it's been a long time. How are you doing?"
Sōya's body stiffened.
Retsu Unohana stood at the door, holding a document in her hand, her expression calm.
Her gaze fell on Sōya, making him shiver.
"Sorry, I had some last-minute work and I'm a little late."
Unohana looked at him, remained silent for a moment, and then looked away.
"There are other matters to attend to regarding the inspection of the Shin'ō Medical Institute. Please follow me."
Sōya was speechless; he stood there, his face ashen.
Then, he turned back and gave Wang Xun a deep look, gritted his teeth, and led the group to follow Unohana outside.
A few days later, at the Tsunayashiro Clan's residence.
Tokinada sat at the tea table, listening to Sōya's report.
"--. That Wang Xun actually healed that injury; his Kaidō abilities far exceeded our expectations."
"Unohana arrived unusually quickly, and we didn't have time to launch an attack. This plan... has failed."
Tokinada didn't speak, but simply put down the water glass in his hand.
Then he slammed it onto Sōya's face.
"Waste."
Sōya dared not breathe, bowing his head and silently enduring the pain.
Then, Tokinada let out a cold breath.
"It's okay, if it doesn't work this time, there's always next time."
"I have a new idea..."
