Absolute Great Teacher Novel - Chapter 1000
Chapter 1000: Kind and Charitable Sun Mo
At the hotel, Lu Feng who was dressed in white was seated on the window ledge, looking at the moon. The wine pot in his left hand had been emptied long ago.
Knock knock!
Someone knocked on the door.
“I’m asleep!”
Lu Feng’s voice was cold and emotionless, as if it had rolled on the snowy plains in the northern frozen land, with all feelings sealed up by ice.
Outside the room, Huang Meibo pursed her lips.
She knew that her teacher was quite dissatisfied with her performance.
“Teacher, I’ll win!”
After saying that, Huang Meibo bowed and then returned to her room.
“Win?”
Lu Feng sneered. (Li Ziqi isn’t good in battles. What’s the point of winning against someone like this? If you want to crush someone, then crush that Xuanyuan Po or that Ying Baiwu…)
“This is really a lousy trip!”
Lu Feng tossed the wine pot away, thinking of how he could find something fun to do.
Should he kill a few people? Or a few hundred people? Should he kidnap Li Ziqi?
He really wanted such an outstanding student!
…
It was a bright and beautiful morning.
The bright sunlight scattered down on the lush green grass, as if laying down a layer of light carpet.
“Eldest Martial Sister, don’t worry, you’ll definitely be able to win!”
Lu Zhiruo cheered Li Ziqi up.
This round was the martial examination, and it would be very entertaining to watch.
In order to increase the Saint Gate’s influence, the judges opened up the martial examination for public view to share the fun with the people, allowing the commoners to have more sense of participation.
Of course, there were also some interests behind this. In every martial examination, there’d be bets of various scales set up.
With every gambling setup, be it an underground one or an official one, they’d have to pay a portion of the money to the Saint Gate and the Golden Cherry Academy.
Therefore, it was impossible to conduct a closed-off competition, and the Golden Cherry Academy would even distribute pamphlets to attract the citizens from the Song An Prefecture to come and watch.
This time around, all of Sun Mo’s disciples came to cheer for their eldest martial sister.
“That’s right. You just need to fight two rounds anyway.”
Tantai Yutang chuckled.
After the elimination from the first three rounds, there were 901 examinees left. However, there’d only be 300 accepted in the end. This meant that she’d definitely be able to pass if she could win two rounds.
“Why do you guys think so poorly of Eldest Martial Sister? I placed bets that she is going to become the champion!”
Helian Beifang was upset.
“How much did you bet?”
Li Ziqi turned and asked.
“1,000 taels!”
The barbaric young man didn’t have much money himself, but he had a super rich teacher and he’d always get a good allowance from him every month.
However, Helian Beifang wasn’t someone who would spend money recklessly and thus had saved them up.
And now, it was time to bet it all in.
“Very good. You can cry in advance now.”
Li Ziqi patted Helian Beifang’s shoulder with certainty. “If this money doesn’t go down the drain, I’ll change my surname to yours!”
The barbaric young man’s expression instantly fell. “Eldest Martial Sister, can you be more confident?”
“I’m not good at self-deception!” Li Ziqi’s lips twitched.
Sun Mo followed at the back, watching as his disciples fooled around. He frowned slightly. He knew that the little sunny egg was very nervous. Otherwise, given her character, she wasn’t someone who’d crack jokes.
It was a pity that he couldn’t help her out at a time like this.
Right now, the field was crowded with people.
There were a total of eight arenas, and battles were taking place on each of them concurrently.
Li Ziqi had drawn a lot yesterday afternoon, and she was assigned to arena eight. Therefore, she just needed to wait for her turn.
Sun Mo’s group had the right to get close to the arena to cheer for her as her close company.
“I hope that I meet a weakling!”
Li Ziqi prayed.
Even though there was still the Q&A segment in the fifth round, the questions asked were mostly things like why did they want to become a teacher and what inspirations one had for the future.
As long as the examinee wasn’t an idiot who’d say things like they only became a great teacher because they wanted to enjoy glory and riches, no one would be eliminated.
Therefore, this round would be the deciding factor, and the battles were very intense.
Agonizing cries kept on ringing out, and there’d be unlucky people covered in blood and carried off in stretchers every now and then.
“This is such a good training opportunity, so why are you guys not practicing your Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands?”
Sun Mo suggested.
“I don’t wish to miss out on Eldest Martial Sister’s competition!”
Lu Zhiruo explained.
“Teacher, we have no lack of people to practice the Ancient Dragon Capturing hands on. Some students are even willing to spend a lot of money for us to give them a massage!”
Qin Yaoguang couldn’t help but smile. (You must be unaware of how great your reputation is.)
Many people were willing to pay a price for Sun Mo to use his God Hands on them, but they didn’t have a chance to do this.
Those students didn’t have the right to get a massage from Sun Mo, so they could only approach his disciples who happened to need to gain experience.
“Who do you guys think will win?”
Xianyu Wei felt curious.
Two guys were engaged in an intense battle on the arena.
“The short-haired one,” Qin Yaoguang assessed.
“What’s the reason for that?” Xianyu Wei asked humbly.
“His opponent has a big head and thick neck. He’s either a rich guy or a cook. If he were to become a great teacher, he’d pull down the looks rating for the entire great teacher world.”
Qin Yaoguang’s darted toward Sun Mo. “I feel that the Saint Gate should set up a standard, rejecting everyone who is uglier than Teacher.”
“Then Teacher will be the only one left in the Saint Gate then.”
Xianyu Wei frowned.
Qin Yaoguang was stunned. (I didn’t expect that an innocent girl from the plains like you would have learned to flatter people too. Moreover, it was done so well and in a refreshing way.)
(Alright then! I, Qin Yaoguang, am willing to proclaim you to be the strongest bootlicker!)
Bang!
In the time the two of them were talking, the short-haired man struck his opponent off the arena.
“Huh? It really turns out like this?”
Xianyu Wei was surprised.
“Don’t listen to her gibberish. The short-haired guy’s opponent has suffered internal injuries three months ago. He should have been too anxious to gain progress for the martial examination.”
Sun Mo explained.
The defeated young man was upset when he heard Sun Mo’s words. He was stunned and looked over. This person’s words were so accurate!
“Zhiruo, help give him a massage!”
Sun Mo instructed.
“You are…”
The young man was puzzled.
“Sun Mo!”
When this name was mentioned, all the gazes in the surroundings turned his way with a swoosh.
“This is Three-time Champion Sun? I finally got to see him in person!”
“To think that he’s so handsome? F*ck your mom! He can rely on his looks to be a gigolo, but why does he have to rely on his talent for a living? Isn’t life as a gigolo good?”
“If I had his looks, there’s no way that I’d agree to work.”
“That’s right. If I had his looks, there’d definitely be eight to ten aunties fighting to buy me coconuts every day I took a walk along the streets!”
The surrounding people discussed amongst themselves, feeling very envious and having an urge to tear off Sun Mo’s face to put onto their own.
When the young man heard Sun Mo’s name, he knew that he had been struck by good fortune. He immediately cupped his hands together in pleasant surprise. “Thank you Teacher Sun for your help!”
“Your aptitude isn’t bad, but this Beautiful Tiger Subduing Fist is too lousy. Change your cultivation art!”
Sun Mo sighed.
If this young man had a suitable cultivation art, his battle prowess would be able to increase by at least three folds.
Hearing that, the young man broke into a bitter smile. “I can’t afford to buy one. The school’s heaven-tier cultivation arts can only be read if one pays with spirit stones.”
“You seem to have a cultivation art you are interested in?” Sun Mo asked.
“I want to learn the Minor Dragon Elephant Art!”
The young man scratched his head and smiled in embarrassment.
“Wow, you’re really greedy. This is a superior-grade heaven-tier cultivation art. Unless you’re the headmaster’s son, just forget about it.”
“Young man, focus on working hard and stop daydreaming!”
Everyone mocked, but it was done in good will. In these times where it’d take one to be an apprentice for ten years before they could learn how to make a dish, a superior-grade heaven-tier cultivation art was really very precious.
“Zhiruo, help him over!”
Sun Mo decided to see through the end of this good deed.
However, the most important reason was still because this young man’s aptitude wasn’t bad, and Sun Mo didn’t want to waste his talent.
If this young man continued to cultivate this lousy cultivation art, he wouldn’t see much progress in the next three years. He’d then always lose out in the martial examinations.
Consecutive setbacks would make a person sink into self-doubt and eventually go to waste.
“Oh!”
The papaya girl immediately helped the young man over.
“Teacher… Teacher Sun…”
The young man had no idea what Sun Mo wanted to do, but judging from his words, it seemed that Sun Mo was going to teach him a cultivation art?
That couldn’t be, right?
It was a superior-grade heaven-tier cultivation art they were talking about. It was worth many spirit stones. No one would be such a prodigal!
“Calm your mind and get rid of all distractions!”
Sun Mo instructed and then recalled the Minor Dragon Elephant Art’s crux in his mind. At the same time, white light lit up on his right hand.
The people near the arena immediately fell silent, looking over curiously.
What was Sun Mo doing?
In terms of age, the young man was actually two years older than Sun Mo. However, he was being very submissive now, looking so docile like a primary school kid who was standing in front of a strict teacher.
Sun Mo didn’t let the young man wait for long. After the time taken for seven to eight breaths, Sun Mo completed his preparations and launched out a punch.
Hua!
His right fist stopped in front of the young man and then white light gushed out from it, channeling into the young man’s forehead.
Buzz!
The young man’s body tilted backward, and then many scenes flashed past in his mind.
This…
This was…
The Minor Dragon Elephant Art?
As the young man hadn’t seen it before, he didn’t know. But it looked very familiar to what the headmaster had used…
“This is the Minor Dragon Elephant Art. The reason I’ve taught you this today is because I don’t wish to see you getting defeated by this setback. Try again next year and become a great teacher, teaching and educating people, going after your life pursuits and values.”
Sun Mo encouraged him.
“That can’t be real, right? He taught someone a superior-grade heaven-tier cultivation art so easily?”
“This is Sun Mo we’re talking about. Moreover, how would he dare lie so openly in public?”
“You guys are really shallow. A cultivation art of this grade might be very valuable to you, but that person there is Sun Mo. I heard that he knows multiple peerless-grade saint-tier cultivation arts and is extremely strong.”
The teachers and students nearby whispered amongst themselves. Some people who had heard stories about Sun Mo immediately explained to the others.
Plop!
The young man reacted and immediately dropped to his knees, banging his head hard onto the ground three times.
“Thank you Teacher Sun for the bestowment!”
Tears gushed out from the young man’s eyes, covering his face. His body also trembled incessantly from the agitation.
Learning this cultivation art would make his prospects even brighter. It could be said that something that was considered to be a small favor to Sun Mo had changed his life.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Passerby Young Man +1,000. Respect (2,500/10,000).
“You can get up!”
Sun Mo helped the young man up. “I only imparted the cultivation art to you because I saw that you’re tenacious, not backing off even in a tough battle. When you encounter other failures in life in the future, think back about the battle today.”
“I will remember Teacher Sun’s teachings!”
The young man said respectfully.
The other young man, who had just won the fight and was celebrating with his companions, saw that his opponent had received the Minor Dragon Elephant Art. He instantly felt less happy about this victory.
This was a superior-grade heaven-tier cultivation art!
(I want it too! F*ck your mom! If I knew this would happen, I’d lose the battle intentionally.)
To people like them who came from poor families, such a cultivation art could be used as their family heirloom, one that was passed down only to the sons and not the daughters.
