Absolute Great Teacher Novel - Chapter 126
Chapter 126: Great Arrogance from One with Power
Due to the incident that had taken place before the class started, even though there were no more seats in the lecture theater, Cai Tan didn’t leave. Instead, he went to the classroom next door to wait.
He wanted to make use of the time between lessons to beg Sun Mo to give him a checkup. After all, he wasn’t willing to accept the fall from being a genius who received the attention of many people and became an ordinary person whom no one cared about.
However, if he were to ascertain that he had really been poisoned, then what should he do? Who was the one who had poisoned him?
Amidst his chaotic thoughts, the bell that signaled the end of the lesson rang. Cai Tan immediately ran out. However, the moment he left the classroom, he saw that Sun Mo was surrounded by close to 100 students.
There wasn’t even a spot around him, let alone being able to squeeze in.
“Teacher, I have a question!”
“Teacher, I feel that there’s a problem with my energy channels. Can you use your God Hands to give me a massage?”
“Teacher, teacher, I’ve recently encountered some problems in my cultivation!”
The students were all shooting away, wanting Sun Mo to answer their question.
“Be quiet!”
Sun Mo pinched his forehead. It wasn’t a good thing to have a great reputation either, as he didn’t even have time to take a break between lessons. However, he didn’t feel annoyed or impatient toward such things.
As a teacher, the more the students loved to study, the happier Sun Mo would feel.
“Teacher! Teacher!”
As Liang Cheng didn’t wish to be expelled, he had been kneeling for the entire duration of the lesson outside the lecture theater. He had wanted to move Sun Mo and then plead for mercy after class.
However, the moment the lesson ended, Sun Mo was drowned by the students. There was no way that Liang Cheng could squeeze his way over. He was dumbstruck and then spat out saliva before getting up to leave.
He wasn’t going to continue coming to this lousy school! He would go out to earn money!
During the entire break, Cai Tan also didn’t have a chance to squeeze up to Sun Mo. When the lesson started, all the students dispersed.
This was an unspoken rule in the Central Province Academy.
Teachers were humans as well, and they needed their breaks. Moreover, constantly crowding around along the corridors would also affect the other teachers’ lessons in the vicinity.
“Shengjia!”
Sun Mo called out.
Qi Shengjia, who was just about to leave with his two friends, immediately turned when he heard this voice. He ran up to Sun Mo.
“Do you have anything on later?”
Sun Mo smiled and asked, reaching out his hand to press onto Qi Shengjia’s shoulder. This young man was tall and had lean muscles, like Bruce Lee. He had a good complexion. It seemed like he had been doing well recently.
“No!”
Qi Shengjia quickly shook his head.
“That’s good then. Come with me to take a bath!”
Sun Mo had been busy for over a week and finally had some rest time. It happened that he hadn’t used the giant medicine packet yet, so he was planning to look for a big bathhouse to test out its effect.
“Huh?”
Qi Shengjia was stunned, but feelings of great surprise immediately surged in his heart.
Ding!
+20 favorable impression points from Qi Shengjia. Friendly (671/1000).
Hearing the system’s notification, Sun Mo felt speechless. (As expected of my experience baby, no, favorable impression points baby. Just an invitation to take a bath together would bring me favorable impression points.)
Qi Shengjia was someone who knew gratitude toward others. If other people were to treat him well, then he’d treat them well for life.
Zhou Xu and Wang Hao, who weren’t far away, felt so jealous that their eyes were going to turn green. The other students were the same. All of them were looking at Qi Shengjia with envious gazes.
Having a bath together with Teacher Sun? Qi Shengjia would definitely be able to receive guidance during this period. He might be able to enjoy the God Hands’ Tuina (chinese massage therapy).
“Let’ go over and give our greetings!”
Zhou Xu was braver and tugged at Wang Hao, running over. He bowed and greeted, “Teacher Sun!”
Wang Hao had taken a few steps forward, but he then came to a stop again.
Even though it had only been a week, the current Sun Mo was no longer the same intern teacher he had been before. He was now an official teacher employed by the academy, a newly rising teacher who possessed ‘God Hands’. Even the students from the higher grade would come fighting for seats to attend his lesson.
The reason Wang Hao stopped was because he was worried that such abrupt actions would offend Sun Mo.
“En!”
Sun Mo nodded at Zhou Xu. “Xuanyuan Po, Tantai, Jiang Leng. The three of you, don’t leave. Come with me to take a bath.”
“Teacher, I’m very busy!”
Xuanyuan Po wore a helpless expression. (Take a bath? Isn’t this just a waste of time? I still have to go fighting!)
The students nearby had a strong urge to strangle Xuanyuan Po after hearing his reply. He really didn’t know how blessed he was.
“Teacher, what about the two of us?”
Lu Zhiruo blinked her big eyes and looked at Sun Mo.
“If there are great teachers you like or lessons you like, you can go and attend them.”
Sun Mo still had no idea what the giant medicine packet’s effects were and thus didn’t dare to recklessly give them to the two girls.
“Oh!”
Lu Zhiruo seemed a little disappointed. She didn’t wish to be separated from Sun Mo.
“Let’s go!”
Sun Mo had only taken a few steps when Jiang Leng came over. He took the teaching materials from Sun Mo, helping him to carry them.
Seeing this, Qi Shengjia slapped his forehead, feeling regretful. He was really foolish. Why couldn’t he think of such ways to please Sun Mo?
“Why is it Qi Shengjia? How am I inferior to him?”
Zhou Xu looked at the group’s departing view, feeling indignant. He felt that his aptitude wasn’t bad. Although he wasn’t comparable to Xuanyuan Po, who had caught Liu Mubai’s eye, he should at least be stronger than the other three, right?
One of them was a sickly guy, one was Jiang Leng, who was covered in shattered spirit runes and had no future. Alright, even if they had talent, then what about Qi Shengjia?
As his roommate for three years, Zhou Xu knew how trashy Qi Shengjia was. If it wasn’t for Sun Mo, Qi Shengjia would have dropped out from school a long time ago, returning to the countryside to work as a manual worker for some landowner.
“Sigh, this is because Shengjia got to know Sun Mo before he had shot to fame!”
Wang Hao exclaimed, “Honest people have their own good fortune!”
“It’s really unfair!”
Zhou Xu felt upset and swung his fist. Why didn’t he hold onto Sun Mo in time back then? Sigh, but he couldn’t be blamed for this. Who could have known that Sun Mo, being an intern teacher, turned out to have ‘God Hands’!
…
When Lian Zheng arrived at the Headmaster’s office, An Xinhui and Jin Mujie were in the midst of a discussion.
“Head Lian, is something the matter?”
An Xinhui gestured for Lian Zheng to take a seat.
“It’s about a student called Liang Cheng!”
If it was any other male teacher who had the chance to get close to An Xinhui, they’d definitely not let the chance slip by and would tell her directly. However, Sun Mo didn’t mind it. When he saw Lian Zheng, who was patrolling the teaching building, he told him about Lian Zheng’s matter.
As for whether Liang Cheng would be expelled or allowed to stay for further observation, it’d be up to the school’s decision.
“Has this been verified?”
An Xinhui frowned slightly.
“Yes!”
Before coming to look for An Xinhui, Lian Zheng had already gone to look for Liang Cheng and Wang Li to question them. The thieving case was also being investigated.
“What is Head Lian’s take on this?”
An Xinhui asked.
“Expulsion. Not only did Liang Cheng lie a lot, but he even said that his mother was severely ill, using it as an excuse. He is really immoral. Moreover, I’ve already checked. It’s true that his roommate has lost money. As for whether it was done by Liang Cheng or not, it’s still pending investigation!”
Lian Zheng wore a solemn expression. He was a harsh person and viewed the school’s rules as a very sacred thing. Anyone who tainted the school’s reputation must be expelled.
“It should be right then!”
Jin Mujie sighed. Stealing was not something commendable. Moreover, it was stealing one’s roommate’s stuff. How could a student do something like this?
Although Lian Zheng didn’t investigate the matter, he was agreeable to this statement.
Prior to this, Sun Mo hadn’t even heard of Liang Cheng’s name. However, he suddenly said that Liang Cheng had stolen two silver taels. The amount was exact as well. This could only mean that he had great confidence.
Sun Mo was a teacher. If he were to spout rubbish, he’d get himself in big trouble.
“Then Head Lian, I’ll trouble you to handle this matter!”
After saying this, An Xinhui felt baffled when she saw that Lian Zheng had no intention of leaving. “Is there anything else?”
Lian Zheng hesitated for a moment before saying, “Does Teacher Sun really possess the ‘God Hands’?”
Even An Xinhui was a little surprised to see that Lian Zheng, who was usually solemn and serious, unconcerned about anything other than his job, was suddenly feeling curious about Sun Mo.
Had her childhood friend’s reputation already grown so much?
“I know that a few great teachers are able to assess a student’s aptitude based on their many years of experience and talent after touching them. However, Sun Mo’s case isn’t just limited to this. He’s able to tell if a student has stolen something or not, as well as their parent’s condition. Isn’t this too much of an exaggeration?”
Lian Zheng’s rough face couldn’t hide his astonishment and doubt. “This is simply a miraculous skill!”
“Maybe he used some other method to find that out.”
Jin Mujie made a guess. She then looked toward An Xinhui with great curiosity, waiting for her explanation.
“I don’t know!”
An Xinhui shook her head.
“Headmaster, I’ll be taking my leave.”
Lian Zheng knew that he wouldn’t be able to get an answer and thus left.
“No matter what, our Central Province Academy has picked up a gem!” Jin Mujie exclaimed.
This 3-star great teacher with a perky butt had also heard of the recent events concerning Sun Mo. The number of people attending his lesson was overwhelming compared to some senior teachers who had several years of teaching experience.
“I believe that it won’t be long before the Myriad Daos Academy’s headmaster will also hear of Sun Mo’s name. He might end up getting so angry that he’d puke out blood.”
Ding!
+5 favorable impression points from Jin Mujie. Neutral (11/100).
“It’d be best if he’d be driven to death from anger!”
An Xinhui joked.
Ding!
+20 favorable impression points from An Xinhui. Neutral (55/100).
After finishing with their discussion, Jin Mujie took her leave and returned to her office. She rubbed her slightly stiffened neck and couldn’t help but recall the feeling of Sun Mo’s massage the other day by the Sorrowless Lake.
“It felt really good!”
Jin Mujie decided to go and look for Sun Mo. But what reason should she give? Oh right, shouldn’t it be very normal for a 3-star great teacher to show concern to a new teacher’s work and life?
…
In the Headmaster’s office, An Xinhui got up and walked to the window, looking down at the academy. In her mind, a stalwart and elegant figure appeared.
That person was Sun Mo’s father, the personal disciple that her grandfather valued the most. Her grandfather had the thought of passing down the academy to him, but he had died in the Darkness Continent.
“Maybe Uncle Sun had imparted Sun Mo with some dark secret arts?”
An Xinhui came up with this conjecture. She didn’t believe that someone’s hands could tell everything about another person. Sun Mo must have grasped some kind of dark secret arts that she didn’t know about.
All sorts of unbelievable abilities existed in the Darkness Continent. The great teachers referred to them as dark secret arts.
