The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3750: Found a Treasure!

Deng Shaofeng stood before Ye Chen, his expression twisting into something more contemptuous and sinister. "Boy, didn't you boast that you could pass the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master's examination? And now? Do you recall when I vowed to make you regret every word you ever uttered?"

Hearing this, Xu Shenglong's own tension mounted. How could this be? Why had the woman stepped down from the stage so abruptly? Hadn't the list of qualified Advanced Cloud Clearing Masters been announced yet? Could it truly be that Brother Ye had failed the examination?

He stole a glance at Ye Chen and was momentarily taken aback. Even at this critical juncture, Ye Chen's expression remained remarkably composed.

Ye Chen calmly met Deng Shaofeng's gaze. "Why the haste? Hasn't the time to issue the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master license arrived yet?"

Deng Shaofeng erupted in laughter, as if he'd heard the most ludicrous jest. He addressed the assembled crowd, "Everyone, cast your eyes upon this boy, still clinging to his charade! Waiting for the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master license to be issued? Is he fabricating excuses as death approaches?"

The gazes of the surrounding crowd turned icy towards Ye Chen, followed by a wave of derision.

Deng Shaofeng's expression darkened instantly. He spoke with venom, "Boy, no one has passed the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master exam at all. You intended to wait for the license issuance? Such a sight you shall never witness in this lifetime! Weren't you exceedingly arrogant before? Didn't you revel in gambling? Now, it is time for you to honor the wager!"

The onlookers joined in, their jeers echoing, "Honor the wager! Honor the wager! Honor the wager!"

In an instant, the cries of thousands of martial artists became deafening, pressuring Ye Chen to kneel before Deng Shaofeng.

Xu Shenglong's face grew grim, his eyes blazing fiercely. As Ye Chen's follower, he could not permit Ye Chen to suffer even an iota of humiliation. If necessary, he would even sacrifice his own life to eliminate Deng Shaofeng.

Dead men have no wagers to fulfill. But Ye Chen gently placed a hand on Xu Shenglong's shoulder, offered a slight smile, and glanced towards the high platform, softly murmuring, "It's beginning."

Beginning? Deng Shaofeng couldn't be bothered to turn around, merely regarding Ye Chen as a fool. This boy was on the verge of kneeling, yet he sought to play dumb and evade the inevitable? Beginning what? Could he still be harboring the delusion of passing the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master exam?

Suddenly, the entire square fell into a profound silence.

Deng Shaofeng frowned slightly. He turned to a nearby martial artist and inquired, "What is happening?"

At that moment, the individual stared at the front of the platform in astonishment and replied, "Young Master Deng, Master Chen, he... has returned to the stage..."

What! Deng Shaofeng's expression contorted, and he quickly spun around. He saw the old man, with hair like a crane's and a face of youth, standing once more upon the platform!

Instantly, Deng Shaofeng felt a flicker of panic! Hadn't the Cloud Clearing Master license issuance ceremony concluded? Why was Master Chen back again? A powerful premonition of disaster surged within his heart.

Everyone watched with trembling eyes as Chen Yuanbiao, the vice president of the Netherworld Cloud Clearing Association, ascended the stage again, clearly for a significant reason.

Chen Yuanbiao smiled. "So many have not yet departed? Have you already sensed the impending significance of this moment?"

These words caused the hearts of thousands of martial artists to leap with anticipation! Could it be...

The next moment, Chen Yuanbiao's voice boomed, "During this Cloud Clearing Master inspection, one among us has successfully emerged as a qualified Advanced Cloud Clearing Master! This is a great fortune for the entire Netherworld Cloud Clearing Association! Therefore, this Advanced Cloud Clearing Master license shall be personally presented by me to this deserving individual!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd felt as though their scalps were about to explode; Deng Shaofeng began to tremble ever so slightly. Someone had genuinely succeeded in passing the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master's exam!

But at this exact moment, an elder let out a wild laugh and strode towards the platform with the imposing gait of a dragon. His name was Song Zhu, and he had been a Cloud Clearing Master for a full hundred thousand years! The Cloud Clearing Association had regarded him as the most probable candidate to attain the status of Advanced Cloud Clearing Master in this examination.

Seeing Song Zhu make his way towards the stage, everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief... The qualified individual was not Ye Shitian... Deng Shaofeng too managed a somewhat strained smile; he had nearly been scared to death just moments ago. It was only logical; an individual who had only cultivated the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques for a mere ten days could not possibly have passed the examination...

But just as Song Zhu was about to ascend the platform to pay his respects to Chen Yuanbiao, he called out, "Master Chen..."

With a slight shake of his head, Chen Yuanbiao spoke with a rather detached expression, "Song Zhu, do you recall this sensation of stepping onto the stage?"

Song Zhu was momentarily perplexed; what did Master Chen intend to convey?

In his estimation, if only one individual were to succeed in the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master examination, surely that person could only be himself!

Should Master Chen not be offering him congratulations?

Instead, he uttered a cryptic remark?

Chen Yuanbiao continued, with a hint of regret coloring his tone, "Song Zhu, your performance today was commendable, achieving a success rate exceeding sixty-nine percent! Sadly, this minuscule margin of difference proves fatal in the Cloud Clearing Master examination. I trust you will remember this feeling of receiving your license on stage and resolve to endeavor harder next time!"

Upon hearing these words, Song Zhu froze abruptly. His already aged countenance appeared to wither further in an instant!

Unwilling to accept this outcome, he fixed his gaze upon Chen Yuanbiao and instinctively inquired, "Impossible! Aside from myself, who else could possibly pass the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master examination?"

At this, Chen Yuanbiao's gaze shifted towards someone specific.

Concurrently, a portion of the martial artists assembled in the square followed Chen Yuanbiao’s line of sight...

At the focal point of Chen Yuanbiao’s gaze stood a young man, his expression remarkably serene...

In that immediate moment, it felt as though an arctic gale swept across the entirety of the square, chilling the millions of martial artists present to the bone!

One by one, their eyes widened like statues, fixed upon the individual before them...

Chen Yuanbiao offered a smile and announced, "Congratulations, Young Master Ye Shitian, you have successfully passed the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master examination. Kindly step onto the stage to receive your license."

The one who had passed the exam was indeed that same young man rumored to have practiced merely the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques for ten days, who had subsequently made a wager with the talented Deng family scion, Deng Shaofeng, creating a sensation throughout Xianying City!

From a secluded corner of the square, a slender-lipped man with an elegant demeanor, whose eyes sparkled with intelligence, observed Ye Chen as he calmly strode towards the platform. A faint smile touched his lips as he murmured, "This journey was truly worthwhile; it appears I have discovered a hidden gem."

By this juncture, Ye Chen had already ascended the elevated platform. As he accepted the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master license from Chen Yuanbiao, he cast his gaze down upon the assembled multitude of a million martial artists and let out a sudden, hearty laugh.
