Chapter 721 by Marina Vittori

“Does it matter to me who you are?” Dustin shrugged. “You insolent bastard! I am the leader of Asclepia, Dr. Bruce Darby’s best student! Your disrespect toward me is a direct disrespect toward Asclepia! Just a word from me is enough to make you vanish from the medical field! Don’t test me!” Preston threatened.

The people who showed up were people involved in the medical field. Asclepia’s power stretched across the nation. And all prestigious entities in the medical world respected them. It was easy for them to wipe out a small fry.

“Oh, I’m so scared. Well, go ahead and do as you wish, then,” Dustin replied dismissively. His unconcern attitude and disregard fueled Preston’s anger. “Y-yo-you bastard! Just wait!”

“Are you done yet? If you are, please get lost.” Dustin waved his hand impatiently as if he was driving a bug away. “You-!” Preston gritted his teeth.

As he was about to get violent, Miranda tugged on his arm. “Preston, there’s no need to stoop to levels of such lowlife. People like him can only hope he’ll ever get to our level. He’ll never be as good as us, so all he can do is run his mouth.”

“That’s right! Only incompetent people waste their time talking. People with real skills speak with their actions!” Their lackeys added.

“You rascal! You sound sure of yourself. If that’s the case, let’s have a challenge.” It was clear that Preston wasn’t pleased. Since he couldn’t win him in an argument, it was time he put his skills to

use.

“I’m not interested.” Dustin flat-out rejected.

“Hah! Are you not interested, or you don’t have the skills? Or perhaps, you simply don’t have the guts?” Preston snickered as if he had seen through Dustin’s brave act.

“Hmph! Here I was thinking that maybe we’ve got ourselves a worthy opponent. It turns out he’s just a cowardly chicken!” Miranda mocked.

“This is what we call a champion boaster. They always win in an argument. But once things start getting serious, they chicken out faster than anyone else.”

“A slacker will always be a slacker. No matter what they say, the facts won’t change!”

The lackeys ridiculed and mocked Dustin, looking at him as if he were nothing more than a mere clown.

“Hey! That’s enough!” Abigail was angered. Had it not been for her concerns for decency, she would have taken action much sooner. They were a bunch who did not watch what they said.

“What? Are you just going to stay silent and let a girl stand up for you? What a worthless bum!” Preston continued to taunt.

“I intended to ignore you, but you seem adamant about getting on my nerves. Fine, you wish to challenge me, don’t you? I’ll take you up on that challenge.” Dustin did not wish to tolerate them

anymore. Just because he couldn’t be bothered to take action did not mean that he wasn’t capable of doing so.

“Wow! You’re finally acting like a man!” Preston gave a cunning grin.

“Alright, I won’t take advantage of you. Let’s just go through with Dr. Watkins’ examination. Whoever gets a higher rank in the examination wins. The loser will be the winner’s dog. How’s that? Do you dare to take up the challenge?” Preston was dead set on winning.

Preston was going to defeat Dustin so that he could crush him under his feet, utterly humiliating him. Only by doing so could he vent the anger in his heart.

“Well, if you insist on becoming my dog, I’ll agree to it, then.” Dustin had an impassive look.

“Hmph! Keep talking tough. Let’s see how much longer you can stay arrogant!” Preston sneered.

“Everyone, did you all see that? We are all witnesses to the challenge. The loser shall be the

winner’s dog.” Miranda was quick to back Preston up.

“That’s right! The loser will be a dog!” The lackeys followed along.

It wasn’t every day that they came across someone they could humiliate. They were going to grab hold of every opportunity that came their way.

“This young man is acting so recklessly. Why would he accept Preston’s challenge? At a medical examination too! Isn’t he inviting defeat upon himself?”

“If he doesn’t have the ability, he should admit defeat. But he insists on being arrogant! He’s going to embarrass himself when he loses.”

“Young people these days are too proud. They don’t know their limits.”

The crowd around them started whispering and commenting on Dustin’s actions. From their point of view, Dustin was too arrogant and would end up embarrassing himself.
