CHAPTER 199: 199: IT’S TIME TO GIVE THIS GIRL AN OPPORTUNITY TO TOUGHEN UP.

This relationship was something Mr. Baili had never publicly disclosed. His purpose was simple: he wanted Gu Tong to have the freedom to develop on her own. Only on the battlefield can a doctor be truly tested.

His reputation would only be harmful, not beneficial, to Gu Tong!

Therefore, this is the reason Gu Tong always addressed Mr. Baili as Professor, and also why she misunderstood her previous life. She couldn’t understand the painstaking effort of the old professor, as she was not a mind reader.

"This..."

Gu Tiancheng was dumbfounded. He never imagined that such a remarkable professor was Gu Tong’s teacher. Even more, he didn’t expect that such an excellent student was his own daughter.

"Of course, Professor Hao also mentioned that it was his conjecture, as Mr. Baili has not acknowledged it yet! Perhaps it’s because he wanted Gu Tong to go out and hone her skills, which is why he acted this way! However, he confided in me the reasons for his conjecture: because Professor Baili personally taught Gu Tong a lot of knowledge, including Artifact Technique!"

Gu Tong’s uncanny Artifact Technique, precise and flawless, now has a reasonable explanation.

That same statement hit Gu Tiancheng in the chest, leaving him unresponsive for a long time.

After a long while, as Gu Tiancheng’s disbelief gradually faded, he suddenly slapped his thigh hard!

"Damn it, she’s actually my daughter! I can hardly believe it! That damn girl! She actually kept it hidden from me all this time! Wait till she comes back, see how I handle her!"

Excellent is simply an understatement!

The existence of a Royal Doctor on the battlefield, they knew well, and if not for the protection, Mr. Baili’s position wouldn’t have been kept so deeply concealed.

Xue Zhengping understood his overwhelming excitement. If it were his daughter, he would likely wake up from dreams laughing. He poured cold water on the situation and said, "You better not think about settling scores later on! Our primary task now is to keep Gu Tong’s identity secret!"

"Cultivating Royal Doctors on the battlefield is difficult and they frequently face assassination. Cultivating an all-round Royal Doctor is even harder than climbing to the sky! I guess that if it wasn’t Mr. Baili’s request, the First Royal Medical College would absolutely not have let her go! Mr. Baili’s purpose in doing this is to let Gu Tong become familiar with the battlefield!"

Only by traversing the battlefield, licking blood, and immersed in the smoke of war, can one truly be called a Royal Doctor of the battlefield! Mr. Baili has his profound reasons for doing so.

"Does this...count as a happy accident?"

If it weren’t for Li Yan’s connection, Gu Tiancheng wouldn’t have transferred Gu Tong to join the Royal Medical College, nor would he have kept her as a special trainee.

Moreover, without this particular mission, Gu Tong would never have gone to the battlefield.

"It counts, and it doesn’t count! Gu Tong is Mr. Baili’s student, and he couldn’t possibly abandon her. Probably, after a few more years, when the time is right, he will definitely transfer Gu Tong away!"

"So, according to what you mean, we should go with the flow and give this girl the opportunity to hone her skills..."

Gu Tiancheng had never thought that one day he would have to send his daughter to the battlefield for training and that it would not be optional!

"Going with the flow is far from enough! We also need to create opportunities, so she can get training on the battlefield and become a truly versatile Royal Doctor of the battlefield!"

The tense expression on Xue Zhengping’s face gradually faded, replaced by an excited sigh as he said, "Old Gu, you are truly fortunate... your daughter has immense potential..."

Being a student of Mr. Baili is something countless Royal Doctors only dream of!

Personally trained, emphatically supported, and painstakingly nurtured by a Five-star Prince, Gu Tong’s starting point is unimaginably high. Barring any accidents, her future could reach heights difficult to surpass!
