Chapter 11 - Chapter 11: Taking the pulse is a heartbeat

"Oh, Ye Chen, you also know medicine?" Ning Tian didn't see through Ye Chen's thoughts; instead, she was surprised that Ye Chen was born into a medical family.

Because of the existence of healing-type Soul Masters, doctors are actually very rare, and their inheritances have basically been completely broken.

However, any medical family with a surviving inheritance definitely possesses true skills!

That's why Ning Tian was so surprised.

"Just a slight understanding~"

Ye Chen feigned modesty.

The Ye family's medical inheritance was still very strong, especially in acupuncture. Coupled with the "Hundred Solutions to Acupuncture" that Ye Chen obtained through signing in, which was directly imbued by the system, Ye Chen's acupuncture skills had basically reached the pinnacle, specializing in treating various difficult and complicated diseases.

However, Soul Masters don't really get sick. Ordinary doctors usually deal with the common people from noble families.

"Then, can you take pulses? Can you help me check?"

Ning Tian giggled, and without waiting for Ye Chen's answer, she directly moved closer to Ye Chen, extended her slender hands, placed them on Ye Chen's thigh, and even actively pulled up her sleeve, revealing a section of her fair wrist.

Clearly, Ning Tian had an extraordinary interest in this area…

"Uh, let me see…"

Ye Chen didn't refuse upon seeing this. He gently reached out and placed his hand on Ning Tian's wrist, lightly touching it. The sensation was warm and smooth.

As expected of the young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, her skin was truly enviable. Ye Chen couldn't help but touch it a few more times.

Ning Tian naturally felt it.

She secretly glanced at Ye Chen, then quickly averted her gaze, her face slightly flushed.

She suspected Ye Chen was doing it on purpose, but she had no evidence and felt too embarrassed to interrupt, so she could only endure it…

However, even if Ye Chen was truly doing it on purpose, she didn't feel it was a big deal.

Boys, it's normal to be a little lecherous…

Moreover, Ye Chen was so handsome; she didn't really lose anything by being touched by him…

Ye Chen was actually doing it on purpose, purely to test Ning Tian.

Because of his charm value, Ye Chen found that the opposite sex seemed to have a high tolerance for him, but he didn't know the exact extent.

If he confessed directly, could they go to a hotel tonight?

However, this was still unrealistic. After all, he wasn't a succubus, and his charm hadn't reached that level yet.

While pondering, Ye Chen seriously took Ning Tian's pulse.

After all, he was from a medical family. Although his medical skills weren't as amazing as his great-grandfather's, taking a simple pulse was effortless.

As expected, it was similar to Ye Chen's prediction. It was highly unlikely for Soul Masters to have any illnesses, let alone someone like Ning Tian, who came from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and grew up surrounded by natural treasures, making her physique far superior to ordinary people.

All aspects were very healthy, with no problems found.

"Click~"

Just then, Wu Feng walked out of the infirmary.

She then saw Ye Chen and Ning Tian huddled together, and Ye Chen was even touching Ning Tian's hand, doing who knew what.

"Ah! You two…"

Seeing this scene, Wu Feng couldn't help but exclaim, her mind going blank.

What happened??

How did Ning Tian suddenly hold hands with Ye Chen??

This was too fast, wasn't it??

"Ah, Wu Feng, you're out."

Hearing this, Ning Tian instantly withdrew her hand, and nervously clutched the corner of her clothes, quickly explaining, "Ye Chen comes from a medical family, so I asked him to take my pulse to see if there were any problems."

"Really?"

Wu Feng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, but she still looked at Ning Tian with some suspicion.

She always felt that something was off with these two, but she couldn't pinpoint it.

Did these two secretly kiss while she wasn't around?

"Yes, that's right. Ning Tian is very healthy, no problems at all," Ye Chen nodded and smiled.

Soul Masters are basically immune to illnesses; it's impossible for them to have any minor ailments. If they do, they're usually major problems.

For example, some males and females have issues in that area.

Many of these problems are caused by Martial Soul defects, or sometimes by injuries. These difficult and complicated diseases cannot be treated by healing-type Soul Masters; one must find doctors with true skills like them. Ye Chen had seen quite a few such cases.

"Alright then, Ye Chen, you should take my pulse too, to see if there are any problems~" Wu Feng said, also moving closer to Ye Chen, extending her hand in front of him, and smiling.

Ye Chen had already taken Ning Tian's pulse, so she also had to let Ye Chen take hers; otherwise, she would feel like she was missing out.

"Wu Feng, you don't need to do this. Soul Masters are basically very healthy; only ordinary people get sick frequently," Ye Chen said with a wry smile.

"No, there might be a problem. You took Ning Tian's pulse, so you have to take mine too…"

Wu Feng naturally refused, insisting on having Ye Chen examine her.

Ye Chen was a bit helpless, but he couldn't win against Wu Feng, so he also accommodated her.

Wu Feng sat beside Ye Chen, pulled up her sleeve, and placed her hand into Ye Chen's embrace.

Ye Chen gently held Wu Feng's wrist, concentrating on feeling her pulse.

Wu Feng stole a glance at Ye Chen, then quickly averted her gaze, a blush quietly spreading across her face.

"This guy… how can he be so handsome when he's serious…"

Wu Feng's heart couldn't help but speed up, and her pulse also began to quicken, becoming somewhat unstable.

Ye Chen felt Wu Feng's pulse and was slightly startled.

Because his great-grandfather had told him about this kind of pulse, saying it was the feeling of a 'heartbeat' (falling in love)…

Of course, Wu Feng's normal pulse was perfectly fine, and her blood and qi were vigorous, making her physical quality much better than Ning Tian's.

After all, she was a strong attack-type Soul Master, so her physical quality was naturally far superior to that of a support-type Soul Master.

"En, Wu Feng, you are also very healthy, no problems at all."

Ye Chen nodded, slowly withdrew his hand, his expression calm, pretending not to have noticed anything.

"Hehe, that's good then~"

Wu Feng chuckled, feeling delighted.

It seemed as if being confirmed "healthy" by Ye Chen was a great honor.

...

...

The group left the infirmary and walked towards the dormitories.

"Ye Chen, why don't you come to our dorm for a bit, eat something and rest~" Wu Feng seemed to have thought of something and suggested with a smile.

"Uh, isn't going to the girls' dormitory against school rules…" Ye Chen rubbed his nose, feeling inexplicably awkward, and hadn't expected Wu Feng to make such an invitation.

"The school rules only say that trespassing in the girls' dormitory will result in expulsion, it doesn't say that boys can't be invited to the girls' dormitory," Wu Feng pouted.

"That's right, Ye Chen, you must have consumed a lot of energy in the battle just now. Come to our dorm to eat something before you go back~" Ning Tian also suggested.

Because she also wanted to get closer to Ye Chen.

On one hand, it was because she had a good impression of Ye Chen.

On the other hand, she also knew the inside story of the Freshman Competition. With three people in a team, if they could team up with Ye Chen, they could easily win the championship, and no one would be unwilling.
