Chapter 100
Andrew chuckled. “This is nothing to me!”
Then, he pressed his palm against Mark’s main pressure points while his right hand swiftly inserted three silver needles with a skillful flick
Instantly, two distinct energies surged from Mark’s body. He winced in pain but soon let out a deep breath, feeling an incredible lightness.
“Is it over already?” Mark asked Andrew in disbelief.
“Yes, it’s done,” Andrew replied with a smile.
Mark stared at Andrew intently and stated, “What remained in my body was energy left by at grandmaster. An ordinary person would be completely destroyed just by touching it, yet you handled it without breaking a sweat. If I’m not mistaken, you must be a martial arts master yourself?”
Instead of answering directly, Andrew simply smiled and said, “Mr. Thatcher, you should rest now. I’ll write two prescriptions, and with two months of recovery, you’ll be completely healed.”
After leaving the prescriptions, Andrew walked out of the room. Immediately, Lauren gracefully slipped her arm through his, completely disregarding the stares from others.

Back in the room, Cedric was dumbfounded. “Mr. Thatcher, you can’t be serious about him being a martial arts master?”
“Dr. Aicker, why would I joke about something like this?” Mark responded with a wry smile. In fact, I suspect Dr. Lloyd isn’t just any martial artist, but a hidden master who chose to stay out of the spotlight.”
“That’s impossible!” Cedric protested. “I acknowledge his extraordinary medical skills, but for him to be both a doctor and a martial artist at such a young age is too unbelievable. Martial arts require years of training with tons of challenges. He’s just a junior doctor at Jayrodale General Hospital. How could he actually be a hidden master?”
Mark replied, “Dr. Aicker, I’m just as shocked as you are. But you saw how he reacted when I asked about his martial arts background. He just smiled and sidestepped the question entirely. Clearly, he isn’t just some talented doctor. He’s likely a powerful figure hiding right here in – Jayrodale.”
Cedric trembled with excitement and exclaimed, “To have such extraordinary medical skills at such a young age…. I should’ve known he must come from a powerful family or prestigious background. His martial arts mastery makes perfect sense now. I must establish a connection with him, even if it means swallowing my pride!”
Mark cautioned, “Dr. Aicker, you should consider whether the Aicker family is worthy. People like him have weathered great storms, and I’m afraid your family isn’t enough to impress him.

Later, when the door opened and Mark greeted his visitors to assure them he was fine, everyone was stunned. This young doctor had accomplished what even Cedric could not do.
Mark smiled and said, “Everyone, you can head back now. I owe my savior a proper thanks, so I won’t keep you any longer.”
Then, he invited Andrew, Cedric, and Lauren to join him in the main hall. Meanwhile, Harvey, who had been waiting outside, finally accepted that he would not be invited in, and his eyes turned red with envy.
