Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

"Huh? What do you mean I can't become a physician?" Ning asked in surprise.

"Elder Neal is one of the 3 judges who are responsible for testing the physician's knowledge. They can also influence your chances of becoming a volunteer, but not as much," Samod said.

"Really? F*ck," Ning started to worry, but quickly put his worries aside. His anger was higher than his worries for now. "Whatever, I will just have to show them my medical prowess when I go take the volunteer exam tomorrow," Ning said.

"Volunteer exams only take place once a month. The last one took place about a week ago," Samod said in a monotonous voice.

"Oh, really? Alright then, I will show them my medical prowess when I go take the volunteer exam in 3 weeks," Ning said.

Samod just shook his head and returned to the elder's room and Ning followed behind.

As soon as he entered, however, Ning got a little fearful of the atmosphere. Elder Neal was letting his Qi wander around recklessly and Ning's body was reacting to that.

'F*ck, just how strong is the?' he thought. He didn't dare check the cultivation realm just in case it was too high and he would get mentally hurt. From the feeling alone, however, Ning could tell that the old man was in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

'Damn, this is scary,' he thought but showed no fear on his face.

"Hohoho, you think you are some invincible being, don't you brat? Very well, let's see how long you can stay in the Physician's guild. I will make sure to make your life hell," the old man said.

Ning didn't back down against the threat, "Go ahead. I will wait for this supposed hell," he said.

Throughout the day, multiple different patients came in and out of the guild looking to get treated and Elder Neal got a lot of patients. However, he no longer swindled them out of money as Ning would be looking at the ingredients very carefully.

He tried to do so once and Ning immediately corrected him, leaving him a little red on the face. At the end of the day, Elder Neal swore that Ning would rather wish to be in actual hell than what was coming for him.

Ning went back to this cottage in the sect for the night. It felt good finally resting after a tiresome day. He started cultivating and very soon, night turned to morning.

Once he got out of cultivation, he checked the beast space to see what was happening. He couldn't see any difference in Night, but the beetle had started laying a sort of cocoon around it. The cocoon wasn't fully made and would still take some time to build, but that still surprised Ning.

'Is that how it evolves?' he wondered. Quickly he forgot about those things and looked forward to another day at the guild.

'That old man said he would make my life hell, didn't he? I'm curious to see how,' he thought. He walked out of his room and went to the Physician's hall.

At the registration hall, he asked the person who he was attending this day, and was given a room. He walked to the room and entered.

Inside was a relatively young man, who seemed a little too fidgety. 'What's going on here?' Ning thought.

"Hello, Physician Ula, I am your attendant for the day, Ning," he said as he introduced himself.

"O- Oh, sorry about that. I didn't see you there. Please come on in," the physician said. According to the man at the registration who assigned him the physician for the day, This man was actually a newbie physician who only passed the test 3 days ago and was starting for the first time today.

'Is this going to be a problem though?' he wondered.

Soon, something vibrated in his storage bag. It was the talisman notifying him of a patient's arrival. Ning had come to learn that the squiggly lines of the talisman weren't any language and simply just provided information directly to the cultivator's mind.

"A patient is here. I will go get them," Ning said and left the room.

He walked to the front of the registration hall and saw a little girl with a face full of weird rashes and little lumps filled with blood and pus.

"She is your patient today," the man at the registrations said. He seemed to be a little cold today.

"Please come," Ning said as he took the little girl and her guardian through the hall to Physician Ula. He opened the door and let them in.

Ula turned around and saw the disgusting face of the little girl and nearly vomited.

'Holy… has he not seen blood and gore or what? How is he even a physician?' Ning wondered.

"Doctor, please check my little sister. She suddenly came down with this rash 2 days ago. We waited the whole day yesterday to see if it would go away, but it just kept on getting worse," the guardian said.

"I— I see," Ula said and started checking the little girl. He showed the signs of him being a newbie and the guardian started to worry.

Ning was curious about her condition too, so he went a little closer to check as well. He looked for a while and quickly realized what the problem was.

He watched Ula working hard to figure out the cause but being unable to, so he decided to help a little.

"Did your sister come into contact with anything unusual recently?" he asked.

"Umm… no, nothing unusual," the brother said.

"Nothing? Not even some insects or any plants that might be poisonous?" he asked.

"I don't… Eli, did you come in contact with any plants or insects recently that you haven't seen before?" he asked his sister.

"I…" the little girl started thinking. " 3 days ago when I went to the outer parts of the forest to collect firewood, I saw a really pretty flower I hadn't seen before," she said.
