During the waiting process, Zhong Feng glanced at Wang Ye and asked with some confusion:

"Wang Ye, logically speaking, the sequence in which I placed those two medications just now was correct. Why did you ask me to switch the order?"

Earlier, when Wang Ye made the suggestion, Zhong Feng didn't question it, as it was a sign of his trust in Wang Ye.

But now, after everything had finished, Zhong Feng's inquiry was akin to seeking guidance from Wang Ye.

The same question was asked at two different times, but the meaning behind each was completely different.

Wang Ye began to explain, "Under normal circumstances, following your original sequence would indeed pose no problems."

"However, if you were to mix it with the other medication you added, you would need to change the order. At that time, it's highly possible for the medicinal effects to get scattered."

"By altering the order and adding one medication at the beginning, it would solidify the effect for a moment before the introduction of the second medication. Although it also disperses, the sequence forms a buffer."

Wang Ye's explanation prompted Zhong Feng to start pondering.

As he thought, a lightbulb went off for Zhong Feng, and his view of Wang Ye suddenly changed, as he exclaimed, "It really is so!"

"I hadn't thought of that at first, but you noticed it, and you pointed out the issue from just the first step."

Admiration was clear in Zhong Feng's gaze towards Wang Ye.

Though he had invited Wang Ye to help and hoped Wang Ye might discover something, Zhong Feng believed the chance of Wang Ye noticing the issue was quite slim.

Yet, to his surprise, Wang Ye identified the problem right from the first instance.

Moreover, it was a problem most people would hardly notice.

No, that's not right!

Very few would pay attention to such an issue!

To think of this, first, one must deeply understand Traditional Chinese Medicine, second, have mastery over the entire process, and third, possess meticulous attention to detail and control of minutiae.

All three elements were essential.

Thus, even for Zhong Feng, who had experimented many times, success had eluded him.

But for Wang Ye, merely observing Zhong Feng at work was enough to pinpoint the problem instantly.

"I feel this experiment is bound to be successful!"

Though the results were not out yet, having understood the rationale behind Wang Ye's instructions, Zhong Feng was already filled with confidence.

His look at Wang Ye grew increasingly confident.

Meanwhile, his eyes remained fixed on the place where he had brewed the medicine.

Waiting patiently.

Waiting for that moment of success.

That moment would be a milestone for Traditional Chinese Medicine in Dragon Country, advancing it a step further in the medical field and ensuring its prominence for a few more years.

And how many more such years did Zhong Feng have in his life?

Ten minutes.

The time it took to brew herbal medicine soon passed.

Normally, brewing Traditional Chinese Medicine takes longer than ten minutes, requiring half an hour, if not more.

So, in this fast-paced era, Traditional Chinese Medicine... is not very popular.

But the ingredients Zhong Feng had used were somewhat different and only needed to be brewed for just those ten minutes.

Zhong Feng took out the successfully brewed medicinal soup, and next, it was time to test its effects.

This test would take another two hours.

Originally, when Wang Ye arrived, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. By now, it was almost six o'clock.

"It worked! It worked! It worked!!!"

A smile broke across Zhong Feng's once solemn face due to the yet unknown results.

His brow, furrowed with tension, relaxed at this moment, and he even started to jubilantly move about on his feet.

Like a child who had just received an award.

At Zhong Feng's level, things like money no longer brought joy.

Zhong Feng was completely uninterested in such trivial matters.

Only these accomplishments could thrill him profoundly, as if he had achieved something amazing or obtained some treasure of the world.

Wang Ye, standing beside him, had also been assisting Zhong Feng with the experiment.

Seeing the smile emerge on Zhong Feng's face, a smile also involuntarily appeared on Wang Ye's face as he congratulated Zhong Feng:

"Elder Zhong, congratulations on the success of your experiment. With this, your status in the medical community of Dragon Country is further secured."

In fact, Zhong Feng's status in the community of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Dragon Country was already as solid as a rock.

No one in Traditional Chinese Medicine in Dragon Country could shake Zhong Feng's standing.

Those who knew about the recent developments in Traditional Chinese Medicine in Dragon Country were aware that without Zhong Feng, although Traditional Chinese Medicine would still survive under the pressure of Western Medicine, the situation would likely be much more severe than it is now.

However.

Zhong Feng, upon hearing Wang Ye's words and previously exhilarated from the experiment's success, now became serious.

His eyes, though small, were intense as they fixed on Wang Ye, and he spoke solemnly:

"They always say that my position in the Traditional Chinese Medicine community of Dragon Country is high and unshakable."

"I'm also aware of how they describe me, saying how if it weren't for me, the trends faced by Traditional Chinese Medicine today would not be as favorable."

"Although I know these are facts..."

Listening to Zhong Feng's words, Wang Ye couldn't help but internally joke about it.

Isn't Elder Zhong humblebragging?

However, Wang Ye kept his teasing to himself as he maintained a serious expression because he knew that given Zhong Feng's grave demeanor, whatever he was about to say next must be of extreme importance to him.

Jokes aside, Wang Ye took very seriously what Zhong Feng was about to say next.

"Yet, I wish there were someone who could threaten my unshakeable status, someone who could surpass me."
