Absolute Great Teacher Novel - Chapter 319
Chapter 319 First Round, Death Race!
Swish!
As the chest was opened, the glow from the crystals immediately shot out. Since it was afternoon and close to the evening, the shine of the crystals covered the great hall of the hotel, dazzling the eyes of everyone. These crystals were absolutely a work of art by nature.
At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded. Even Wan Yanli’s gaze looked somewhat bewitched.
“So…so much?”
Zhang Hanfu stuttered, his eyes stared fixedly at those spirit crystals.
Everyone here was a teacher. Their statuses weren’t low and they had naturally used spirit stones before. As for spirit crystals, they had seen them before but had never used them. For battle resources like these, they would usually store them for a rainy day.
But now, there was a chest of spirit crystals placed before everyone’s eyes.
Swish!
Boss Lei subconsciously stretched out his hand and wanted to take them, but An Xinhui’s movements were quicker than him.
Pak!
An Xinhui took a step forward and closed the chest. “Boss Lei, I apologize. We have to discuss something first!”
After speaking, An Xinhui didn’t wait for Boss Lei to agree. She turned and faced Sun Mo.
“Are you mad? These are the spirit crystals left by Uncle Sun, right? Even if you don’t care for them, you shouldn’t waste them like that!”
An Xinhui frowned.
(Spending 1,000 spirit crystals to stay in a hotel. My heavens, how extravagant can a human be? Sun Mo, are you not afraid of being struck by lightning?)
“Since silver is useless, I can only spam spirit crystals.”
Sun Mo shrugged his shoulders.
With regard to the value of a mine, Sun Mo understood it even better compared to these aboriginals from the Nine Provinces. On Earth, who was the wealthiest? Those capitalists from Wall Street?
No, the wealthiest people were the owners of oil in the Middle East!
Those fellows didn’t even need to do anything. They just had to extract oil from the ground below their feet and could sell it for an exorbitant sum of money. This was simply picking money from the ground!
Liu Mubai surveyed Sun Mo. He, who was originally stunned at how Sun Mo had so many spirit crystals, showed a look of understanding after he heard An Xinhui mentioning ‘Uncle Sun’.
Sun Mo’s father was very impressive back then. It was normal that he could leave such wealth to his descendants.
“We must not use the crystals!” An Xinhui suggested. “We will just not stay here, let’s change to another hotel!” “It’s fine. I still have many spirit crystals!” Sun Mo truly had no wish to search for hotels again. “Boss Lei, can I trouble you to quickly finish the check-in procedure? Will you be able to settle it within 15 minutes? Also, please get your staff to prepare some tea and pastries first. I don’t want my students to be overly fatigued.”
“Sure thing!”
Boss Lei nodded and bowed, immediately following the orders. Asking for Wei Lu’s opinion? Stop joking, ordinary people wouldn’t be able to take out so many spirit crystals.
Boss Lei felt that in order for Sun Mo to ‘appear cool’ this time, his wealth must have been drained badly.
“Sun Mo!”
An Xinhui frowned, feeling that he was wasting the inheritance his father had left for him.
“Headmaster An, you don’t have to worry about this.”
Li Ziqi smiled. What did 1,000 spirit crystals count for? After she received Sun Mo’s instructions to prepare a bunch of spirit crystals, she went to the Wind King Hall and casually collected some.
When one was traveling outside, one must naturally bring more money to avoid being embarrassed.
The purchasing power of silver and gold was a tier lower compared to spirit stones. However, spirit stones were too heavy, so they naturally chose to bring spirit crystals that were worth even more.
Moreover, there was another box in the luggage that was filled with even more valuable spirit diamonds.
“Alright, let’s prepare to rest!” Sun Mo patted An Xinhui on her shoulder, indicating for her to rest at ease. To him, these spirit crystals couldn’t even be considered a drop in the bucket.
When An Xinhui saw that the situation was unfolding this way, she hurriedly went to find the boss, preparing to negotiate for a lower price.
“I didn’t expect that you are actually a wealthy lord.”
Jin Mujie was taken aback.
Gu Xiuxun lowered her voice and asked softly, “Honestly speaking, how many spirit crystals do you have? I wish to purchase some!”
“Given our relationship, speaking of such things is simply equivalent to you treating me like an outsider. I will give you 100 crystals!”
Sun Mo laughed.
“You can’t possibly be having some intentions toward me, right?”
Gu Xiuxun touched her collar and stared at Sun Mo with a suspicious look in her eyes. Even parents wouldn’t give their children so many spirit crystals!
Ying Baiwu’s lips twitched, she wanted to say,
Teacher Gu, you are thinking too much. 100 spirit crystals can simply be scooped up by Teacher Sun any time he wants.’
The young iron-headed girl had been cultivating in the Wind King Hall throughout this month. She was long numb to the sight of the spirit crystals but others were not.
When Wan Yanli saw Boss Lei ignoring her and earnestly calling out and serving the teachers and students of the Central Province Academy, she was so angry that she almost coughed up blood.
“Brother Wei…”
Wan Yanli called out sweetly.
“Lin`er, I really can’t afford to win this!”
Wei Lu smiled bitterly.
For an object like money, when it was at a certain amount, it was just a number. Given Lu Wei’s royal status, it wasn’t a problem to spend a few million or tens of millions.
However, it was different for spirit crystals. They were important battle resources and other than the clan lord, no one had the authority to use them.
“Hmph!”
Wan Yanli snorted coldly. She turned her head and walked away, not wanting to remain and continue throwing face.
“Lin’er!”
Wei Lu chased after her. “Don’t worry, I will definitely find another hotel that’s better than this.”
“Brother Wei, you don’t have to console me. I understand.” Wan Yanli wasn’t an unreasonable girl. 1,000 spirit crystals? Let alone Wei Lu, even her father would hesitate to use them just to book a hotel.
(What origins does that Sun Mo have exactly? He’s actually so rich to this extent!)
“Don’t worry, those spirit crystals are most probably from the Central Province Academy’s storage. After they spend them, I want to see what they will do for the rest of this competition.”
Wei Lu chortled, rejoicing in their calamity.
“Finish off their representative group and make them surrender!”
Wan Yanli clenched her fists.
Money would even make the Devil turn millstones, let alone spirit crystals. Boss Lei used his fastest speed and settled the rooms for teachers and students from the Central Province Academy. However, An Xinhui still felt heartache at the loss of spirit crystals and negotiated the price to be 500 spirit crystals. But the downside of this was that they wouldn’t be able to book the entire hotel.
Zhang Hanfu immediately locked the door after entering his room and began to silently roar as he grabbed his pillow and punched it repeatedly.
Damn!
Damn!
(It’s that damnable Sun Mo again. Why is he always spoiling my plans? Also, where’s my son? What the hell is he doing in the Darkness Continent?
(Could something have happened to him?
(No, it can’t be.) Zhang Hanfu shook his head.
(He is extremely outstanding. Nothing would happen to him.)
For the next two days, the students recharged themselves. During this time, the representative group from Sky Orchid also stayed in the same hotel.
Sky Orchid was an extremely famous school that was ranked in the top ten, and they frequently joined the ‘C’ grade ranking. Both schools usually had no interaction, hence, their relationship was quite cold.
On the third day, at 8 a.m., at the White Dew Building, the ceremony of the league tournament officially started.
108 representative groups entered the venue. When the Central Province Academy appeared, everyone exclaimed in shock.
Their orange-colored martial uniform was simply too unique. In this era, the uniform of the various schools was roughly the same. At most, there would be some slight differences in the colors and designs. But the Central Province Academy’s uniform was simply too different.
However, the style did exude a different sense of beauty!
“It’s the Central Province Academy!”
“Che, what’s the point of using such tricks. If they want to win in the competition, it would still have to depend on their capabilities!”
“The new student group is their weakness, so there’s no need to care about them so much. Our main competitors are still Haizhou, Mingshao, and Sky Orchid!”
At the scene, buzzing sounds of discussion could be heard. After the initial shock, no one paid any more attention to the Central Province Academy. The famous schools ranked within the top ten attracted more attention.
After the vice alliance leader of Saint Gate, who was the organizer of this event, spoke, he directly concluded the opening ceremony. Tomorrow would be the official start of the competition.
Today, there was no entertainment. All the students made use of their time to get rested and reorganized.
After Sun Mo finished giving the freshmen massages, he wanted to give the higher-year students massages as well. However, An Xinhui stopped him.
“You have to participate in the competition too. You shouldn’t waste your energy.”
An Xinhui persuaded him. “I’m fine!”
Sun Mo was full of energy. He only needed to act personally when giving massages to females. The genie would handle all the males.
The only thing he was expending was his spirit qi. However, he managed to earn a large number of favorable impression points, and so it was quite worth it.
“No way, quickly go to sleep!”
The competition was tomorrow and this involved the future of the school. An Xinhui had wanted to say some more words to Sun Mo, but she truly didn’t know what to say.
“Don’t worry. We will surely make it!”
As the door closed, Sun Mo consoled her.
The new student competition and official competition would start at the same time, but the content of each competition was different. Hence, both groups separated after they entered the White Dew Building.
“I will work hard to become a leading teacher for the official competition next year!”
Seeing An Xinhui and Liu Mubai departing, Gu Xiuxun silently vowed.
A staff wearing a yellow vest walked over. He carried a sound amplification stone and started to speak.
“All teachers leading the new student groups are to stay in the waiting zone. The freshmen participating can group into your respective units and enter the ‘A1 zone’ to listen to the rules of the first round of the competition. Please remember that the judges won’t repeat the rules. Once you miss them, you should take responsibility for the consequences.
“The ‘A1 zone’ will close one minute later. Please make haste!”
After the staff repeated the message twice, he started to count down.
The feeling of pressure instantly flooded down. The freshmen weren’t able to hear the reminders of their teachers and could only do their best to hurry to the A1 zone.
Pushing and shoving kept happening, but the staff didn’t stop them.
“Kill our way over!”
Xuanyuan Po had a look of excitement on his face. He flicked his sleeves and prepared to barrel his way over! “Wait!”
Li Ziqi stopped Xuanyuan Po. “Zhang Yanzong, Xuanyuan Po, Zeng Gang, Xu Jialiang. The four of you should lead the way for our group and rush ahead. Wu Jitong, Peng Kunqi, you guys are to protect the left-wing. Xu Dingjiang, Zhao Zhi, you guys are responsible to protect the right-wing. The remainder will stay in the center!”
The little sunny egg’s command was clear and decisive. She was also observing the surroundings simultaneously.
“Li Ziqi, I’m the leader of this group!”
Zhang Yanzong grew unhappy, feeling that Li Ziqi had overstepped her bounds. “I know you can design such strategies too; I’m merely helping you out. You should place your energy in observing the members of the other groups.”
Li Ziqi didn’t wish to quarrel, hence, she complimented Zhang Yanzong.
Indeed, Zhang Yanzong was satisfied after hearing this. “Everyone, follow me closely. We will start to rush over!”
BOOM!
The new student group of the Central Province Academy was like a powerful current rushing straight toward the A1 zone. They directly forced a path open through the flood of students before them.
