Chapter 1067: Assistant Tutor Sun Has Returned!

Mister Qin sat in his room with one of his legs crossed over the other. He was drinking tea and would occasionally toss some pastries into his mouth. Such a life was truly wonderful.

The tea was the top-rated maojian from Xinyang Prefecture, while the pastries were a new type of southern-style pastries from the Daoji Bakery. A country bumpkin like Mister Qin had no idea whether they were delicious or not and only knew that they were very expensive.

Although Sun Mo gave an increase in salary to everyone after he had become the vice headmaster, honestly speaking, Mister Qin was still unable to afford to eat this every day.

However, before the prime minister, there were still seventh-grade officials.

The fame of the Central Province Academy surged explosively after it had risen to the ‘B’ grade. Sun Mo had also obtained the unprecedented achievement of being a three-time champion in the great teacher world. Hence, the number of students who came to join the school increased dramatically.

As a gatekeeper, one could say that Mister Qin was very familiar with various matters of the school. Those coming to seek education here would either give him gifts or red packets for the sake of getting some information in advance, so as not to accidentally offend Sun Mo and waste all their prior efforts.

So, Mister Qin managed to become quite wealthy from all these extra tips.

“All praises to Great Teacher Sun!”

Mister Qin cheered and turned his gaze toward the school gate. After just a glance, he immediately ran out as he called out a greeting.

“Sir Assistant Tutor, you’ve returned?”

Mister Qin smiled so widely that the creases on his face could squash a fly to death.

“Assistant tutor?”

Xianyu Wei didn’t understand this title.

“I think it’s better for you to address me as Great Teacher Sun!”

Sun Mo smiled.

With regard to the Great Tang Emperor granting him an official post as an ‘assistant tutor’, Sun Mo already knew about it from the letters that An Xinhui sent him.

Honestly speaking, he didn’t feel anything at all.

Humans had to have more lofty goals. If he wanted to become an official, he would naturally prefer it to be a ‘grand tutor’ instead.

“No matter what the title is, you are forever our most noble leader!”

Mister Qin immediately started to fawn while nodding to Sun Mo’s students. Even for barbarians like Xianyu Wei and Helian Beifang, he didn’t dare to slight them.

There was no solution to it. Who told them to be Sun Mo’s personal students?

“Why don’t they give our teacher the ‘grand tutor’ title?”

Lu Zhiruo pouted her mouth and felt a little unhappy. She felt that the Great Tang Emperor was looking down on her teacher.

“Only the personal teachers of crown princes can be addressed as ‘grand tutor’.”

Tantai Yutang explained.

“But our eldest martial sister is very much doted upon by the emperor. It shouldn’t matter even if he granted our teacher the title of ‘grand tutor’.”

Lu Zhiruo argued.

“No matter how much the emperor dotes on Ziqi, it’s impossible for him to pass the throne to her.”

Tantai Yutang was speechless. These were ancestral teachings of the world. “Above grand tutors, there is an imperial preceptor. Do you know how noble this title is?”

“In that case, we might as well help our eldest martial sister to ascend the throne and let Teacher become an ‘imperial preceptor!”

Lu Zhiruo suggested.

“Shh!”

Jiang Leng hurriedly covered Lu Zhiruo’s mouth. (Are you mad? You even dare to utter such rebellious words? Do you want your entire clan to be beheaded?)

“Eh, I was wrong. Eldest Martial Sister, please pretend that you didn’t hear it.”

Lu Zhiruo shrank her neck back and stuck her tongue out. She was merely saying words of anger and wouldn’t really dare to do such a thing.

Li Ziqi stared at Mister Qin.

Hu! Hu!

Mister Qin pretended to be whistling, acting like he had heard nothing.

(What a joke, I don’t wish to be silenced.)

“In the future, don’t say such words recklessly!”

Li Ziqi reminded Lu Zhiruo. She was worried that this might bring trouble for their teacher.

…

After returning to school, they all felt at home.

Sun Mo’s feelings of nervousness immediately calmed down. The only trouble was that no matter where he went, there would be students and teachers greeting him.

Sun Mo couldn’t ignore them as he needed to maintain the bearing of a great teacher. Hence, he returned all the greetings. And after some time, his face had stiffened from smiling too much.

However, these were all people from his school!

Sun Mo was very satisfied when he looked at the great number of students. It felt like he was looking at future talents!

At the headmaster office, when An Xinhui heard Sun Mo knocking on the door, she immediately stood up to welcome him.

“You’ve finally returned?” An Xinhui rolled her eyes. “I almost thought you don’t want us anymore!”

“Us?” Sun Mo started.

“Eh!”

An XInhui immediately blushed. She was referring to both the school and herself. In order to mask her embarrassment, she quickly reported the school’s situation during these few months to Sun Mo.

In any case, things were flourishing!

“Do you want to participate in the 4-star great teacher examination?”

An Xinhui asked.

“Yes!”

Honestly speaking, who didn’t thirst for creating history? Once he obtained the beautiful reputation of a four-time champion, his future path would be extremely smooth and stable.

When it came to recruiting students, he didn’t need to act personally and there would be countless elite students lining up to look for him.

Maybe in the future, there would be the idiom ‘The snow piles up at Sun’s door’.

“Are you confident?”

An Xinhui frowned. “Who will participate in the personal student battle then?”

Sun Mo explained the situations of his students to her.

“You should give Zhiruo a chance. After all, this competition is a rare tempering exercise. If you pass, little Zhiruo will no longer have a chance in the future.”

An Xinhui teased.

“Let me think about it more.”

Sun Mo fell silent.

“During this period, you don’t have to give lectures either. Just prepare yourself well for the examination!”

An Xinhui suggested. “For miscellaneous stuff like registering your name for the exam, just leave it to me.”

“Mn, I have a few spirit rune operations I need to do.”

Sun Mo nodded.

“What is that?”

An Xinhui was curious. Her childhood sweetheart went to learn from Bai Wenzhang. Most probably, his standard should have improved to a terrifying stage, right?

“You will know when the time comes!”

Sun Mo kept her in suspense.

After that, Sun Mo had dinner together with An Xinhui, Mei Ziyu, Murong Mingyue, Gu Xiuxun, and Jin Mujie. These five beauties had their own unique aspects, and one would feel their minds being refreshed and their spirits being lifted just by taking a glance at them.

However, for the vast majority of the time, Sun Mo’s eyes would land on Jin Mujie. There was no solution as she was truly too huge.

After dinner, the six of them went for a stroll on campus, and some male teachers passing by were filled with envy after seeing this.

(Why would a jerk like Sun Mo be qualified to chat happily with so many beautiful great teachers?)

(Great Teacher Jin is so fair!)

(Wait a minute, Teacher Ziyu is so pure and she’s the type of girl I like!)

(Aiya, I think it’s better to choose Headmaster An. After all, she was once the lover I yearned for in my dreams.)

…

The male teachers suddenly discovered that these five great beauties each possessed their own flavor. It was so difficult to choose.

“Teacher Jin, are you participating in the 4-star exam?”

Sun Mo asked with a smile. “If yes, let’s go together!”

“Yes, I am!” Jin Mujie didn’t hesitate.

This year, she had spent the vast majority of her time guiding her students. Besides, she had failed once and her perfect record was already broken. It didn’t matter even if she failed again.

Naturally, the most important thing was that she had no plans to move to a new school. Even if she failed the exam again, An Xinhui would not fire her.

“Let’s go together!”

Sun Mo issued an invitation.

“Do you have a newly invented spirit rune during these few months?”

Gu Xiuxun poked Sun Mo.

“Yup!”

Sun Mo calmly smiled.

“What is it?”

Mei Ziyu blinked her beautiful eyes.

“You guys will know three days later. At that time, we can head to the manor to test out the new spirit rune.”

This manor was naturally granted to him by the emperor and was located on the outskirts. Many wealthy people wouldn’t be able to purchase the property despite how rich they were. After all, wealth wasn’t greater than authority in the Nine Provinces.

And royal authority was the greatest authority of all.

“Teacher Sun, you shouldn’t be happy too early. I heard that this year’s exam is extremely tough!”

Yue Rongbo arrived.
