Chapter 828 - God Hands Displaying Its Might

Chapter 828: God Hands Displaying Its Might

The number of people attending Sun Mo’s botany lecture was still explosive. His classroom was packed full.

Among these students, some of them came to watch a show after they heard about Sun Mo’s shocking performance in his spirit runes lecture. But the others were here to learn more about darkness plants.

No matter what, the classroom was filled to the brim and Sun Mo’s lecture didn’t cause them to be disappointed.

A subject like botany was the ‘toughest’ to teach. This was because there was too much rote memorization required. Luckily, Sun Mo’s lecturing style was humorous and had some charm, causing those listening to his lesson to not feel dry and dull the entire time.

“The class has ended!”

As Sun Mo announced the end of the class, he left the classroom.

The students all stood in unison and started to clap.

This was their recognition and praise toward Sun Mo’s teaching ability and generosity.

How many people would be willing to share such rare and precious knowledge willingly?

“If it wasn’t for the fact that he has a conflict with Wanyan Zhenghe, Teacher Sun would be able to stay behind, right? What a pity.”

Some students felt pity for Sun Mo.

Although they had only attended two of his lessons, they had become his fans.

“You guys are thinking too much. Although Wanyan Zhenghe is the crown prince of Jin Country and will be the future king, this place is the Dragon Subduing Academy after all. Can’t it even protect a great teacher?”

“Your words are problematic. Does Teacher Sun still need people to protect him? Do you know he’s a very capable fighter?”

“That’s right, I heard he won three matches this morning in the Dragon Subduing Palace and even caused his opponents to give up voluntarily.”

Because Sun Mo’s actions and style were too unique, he became a hot topic in just two days.

Just like the saying ‘some people are like the bright moon’, even if they disguised themselves, it wouldn’t be able to mask their glow.

…

Sun Mo walked out of the castle, which was the teaching building. When he saw that Mei Ziyu hadn’t arrived yet, he decided to wait under a pine tree.

Since he was bored, he decided to open the two golden chests he had obtained previously.

“Sadly, my lucky mascot isn’t by my side!”

In the past, when Sun Mo was playing games, he never experienced good luck at all. Luckily, he didn’t lack favorable impression points now, so even if his two golden treasure chests opened lousy items, he didn’t mind it.

Very soon, a book covered in black light appeared before him.

Ding!

“Congratulations, you’ve obtained [200 trivia about the study of spiritual control]. Do you want to learn it?

“What?”

Sun Mo blinked.

“What’s your highest level of education? You don’t even know what trivia is?”

The system teased him.

“Of course I know what the term means!”

Sun Mo naturally understood. Trivia meant pieces of information with little importance or value; they were like insignificant remote knowledge. One could say that this ‘skill book’, other than being able to enhance Sun Mo’s idle conversation skills when he chatted with others, had no other benefits.

However, trivia was also a form of knowledge, so he might as well learn them.

“Open the next chest!”

Sun Mo felt anticipation.

After that, another book shining with black light appeared.

Sun Mo suddenly felt a bad premonition.

Ding!

“Congratulations, you’ve obtained [500 trivia about Puppetry]. Do you want to learn it?”

“Damn!”

Sun Mo kicked the pine tree beside him. (Are you pranking me?)

“What’s wrong?”

A gentle voice rang out from the side.

“Nothing!”

Sun Mo smiled. Mei Ziyu had arrived. “Were your lectures today not smooth?”

“They are pretty good.”

Mei Ziyu didn’t care whether she could get the qualifications of 3-star or not, but the moment she started to teach students, she would do her utmost.

“Today, I got to know a young girl. She’s very fat, the type that weighs over 200 jin…”

The two of them didn’t need to communicate beforehand and walked without prior consultation with each other toward the canteen.

Sun Mo spoke about the interesting things today. His voice was as gentle as jade while Mei Ziyu listened silently, occasionally concealing her smiles.

The setting sun caused a cold afterglow to paint the sky.

The atmosphere between the two of them was extremely good, as though they were very close confidantes. There was no need for words, and they would understand each other’s thoughts just with a glance or a smile.

When they walked to the canteen’s entrance, Mei Ziyu saw a figure so fat that it looked like a ball.

“That’s Xianyu Wei, right?”

Mei Ziyu was stunned. This was the first time she saw such a fat girl.

“Teacher!”

After seeing Sun Mo, Xianyu Wei rushed over. Her two large legs caused the ground to tremble from the impact.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Sun Mo turned his head.

There was no solution to it. It was too conspicuous.

When Xianyu Wei was running, her fats were undulating like waves. Absolutely no one could stare at her directly.

“Teacher!”

After seeing the blue teacher robes of Mei Ziyu, Xianyu Wei didn’t look down on her because she was an intern teacher. She respectfully greeted Mei Ziyu.

“Being able to follow Teacher Sun is an extremely hard-to-come-by opportunity. You should cherish it!”

Mei Ziyu’s impression of this girl wasn’t bad, hence, she spoke out in reminder. She didn’t want this girl to miss out on this chance. For example, that Xiao Ri`nan previously… If he had listened to Sun Mo, he would have been able to enjoy the Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands and would be able to walk without crutches.

“I understand.”

Xianyu Wei nodded heavily. She was unsophisticated in her thoughts but not silly.

During these few days, because she snuck out to find food, she hadn’t heard any rumors about Sun Mo and didn’t know anything about him at all. But after the afternoon, she understood.

There was basically no need to intentionally find news about him. As a person who could say the bold words ‘If anyone is able to stump me during my lectures, I’ll quit being a great teacher forever’. Moreover, he completely ignored Wanyan Zhenghe’s status and ‘smacked’ his face. In the school, people would discuss about Sun Mo at every moment.

“Teacher, well done. Someone like Wanyan Zhenghe is truly too bad. He likes to bully people.”

Xianyu Wei flashed a thumbs-up at Sun Mo.

Because she was fat, she had been laughed at and mocked by Wanyan Zhenghe before.

Naturally, because she was a girl, he didn’t beat her up.

“You should understand more about me, right? Are you not afraid that Wanyan Zhenghe might implicate you because of me and find trouble for you?”

Sun Mo asked.

“My father said before that being afraid is the behavior of a coward. We should subdue our fear. For saints, if they could hear the dao in the morning, they wouldn’t mind dying in the evening. As long as I can learn something useful from Teacher, even if I get bullied by Wanyan Zhenghe, I would still feel that it is worth it.”

Xianyu Wei revealed a determined expression.

“Not bad!”

Sun Mo couldn’t help but stretch his hand out and rubbed Xianyu Wei’s head. This was a good girl with her own determination and will. “Come, let’s go for a meal.”

“Oh yeah, it’s time to eat!”

Xianyu Wei took the lead, drooling while she stared at the canteen staff cooking food through the canteen window. Aiya, all the dishes seemed so delicious.

Mei Ziyu would always eat very little as she would consume alchemy pills most of the time. But after she saw Xianyu Wei gorging herself, her appetite also opened up and she ate half a bowl of rice.

“Teacher, try it. I’ve told you before that these lion heads (pork meatballs) are so delicious that I can eat a hundred of them in one go.”

Xianyu Wei passed two of the meatballs to Sun Mo and Mei Ziyu. She then lifted her bowl and licked the broth at the bottom. After that, she narrowed her eyes and revealed an expression of enjoyment.

Sun Mo and Mei Ziyu looked at the pork meatballs that were even larger than a human fist, feeling somewhat speechless.

“This…we should split and share them, right?”

Mei Ziyu was shocked. She felt a little overwhelmed.

Truthfully speaking, a ‘lion head’ was enough for four people to eat.

“My original meaning was we share one while she eats one herself.”

Sun Mo was speechless, but the filial piety of Xianyu Wei was pretty good. At the very least, she knew how to take the dishes and give them to her teacher first. (But by doing this, would I seem petty then? I should have bought four.)

“Understood.”

Mei Ziyu’s lips curled into a smile. When she saw that Xianyu Wei’s appetite wasn’t satisfied yet, she laughed. “If you want to eat more, just go and buy more. Your teacher has the money, so there’s no need for you to hold yourself back for him.”

“Ah?”

Xianyu Wei started. After that, she felt joy and looked fixedly at Sun Mo. “This isn’t good, right?”

“Let’s go!”

Sun Mo waved his hands.

…

After their meal, they left the canteen. Mei Ziyu involuntarily cast a glance at Xianyu Wei’s stomach. This meal of hers consisted of eating lion heads that were bigger than human fists.

“So satisfying.”

Xianyu Wei touched her tummy and exhaled. “Teacher, you are so nice.”

“I hope you will say the same thing in half a month.”

Sun Mo’s expression turned solemn. “Alright, let’s take a walk to aid in digestion. I want to rent a training room for cultivation and start your official training.”

“Ah?”

Xianyu Wei was shocked. (The training is going to start so quickly?) Hence, she revealed a straight face and waited for Sun Mo to ask her about her cultivation situation. But after half an hour, Sun Mo didn’t seem to have any intentions to ask her about this.

All famous schools would have many meditation and training rooms. After all, some cultivation arts the teachers wanted to pass down had to be kept confidential.

“How much does it cost to rent a training room? The largest type of them.”

Sun Mo surveyed a large stone castle before his eyes and was estimating how many rooms there were.

The buildings in the entire Dragon Subduing Academy were mostly constructed from the same material as this castle.

“Sorry, ‘A’ grade training rooms are not rentable by intern teachers.”

The aunty who was the gatekeeper glanced at the teacher robes Sun Mo was wearing and curled her lips. This color belonged to intern teachers, and they had the lowest status of all teachers.

Naturally, her rude attitude was primary because Sun Mo was someone from the Central Plains.

Sun Mo turned his head and asked Xianyu Wei. “Is there such a rule? Or is this something this woman made up so she can earn some bribes?”

“There’s indeed such a rule.”

Xianyu Wei hurriedly replied.

Actually, she didn’t know that there was excess for the largest training rooms in the Dragon Subduing Academy. This was because, for great teachers that had the ranking 5-star and above, they would have their own private lodgings or offices. They could directly teach their students in their own territory.

Only 3-star or 4-star great teachers would rent training rooms here. However, they were also a minority.

After all, teachers of these levels wouldn’t lack money. Who wouldn’t be able to afford a house?

“Aunty, can’t I just pay more?”

Sun Mo’s lips twitched.

“It isn’t a problem about money…ah, what are you doing? Molester!”

The aunty originally wanted to say that the problem was because Sun Mo was someone from the Central Plains, but Sun Mo’s hand already touched her. How preposterous.

(An average-looking dog from the Central Plains also dares to take advantage of this lady?)

“Don’t misunderstand. I’m just verifying how serious your illness is.”

Sun Mo was very calm.

“You are the one who is ill!”

The aunty directly shot back. Hiding a sickness for fear of treatment was something many people were guilty of.

“Do you often feel a headache, dizziness, blurriness in your vision, and you would also feel pain in your left chest occasionally?”

Sun Mo had used Divine Sight to see the aunty’s data. He touched her to disguise this fact, so he could push the ‘blame’ to God Hands as he didn’t want to expose his ocular technique.

“Ah?”

The aunty was shocked. Her gaze began to be filled with suspicions.

“You also urinate frequently and when you go to the washroom, oh I mean, the toilet, you would feel quite painful…”

This aunty was only over 40 years old, but she had a body full of problems. Other than hypertension, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, she also had heart disease, diabetes, and kidney stones.

“H…how did you know?”

The aunty was completely stunned. Dizziness and headaches were minor problems that affected many people, so this guy might be randomly talking nonsense. But urinating frequently and feeling pain? This was an extremely private matter.

Sun Mo smiled. “Secret.”

After hearing this, the aunty almost spat a mouthful of phlegm on Sun Mo’s face. However, she endured it. Her many years of experience in society told her that Sun Mo had a way to cure her.

“This is the key to the ‘A1’ training room.”

The aunty admitted defeat.

“How much money?”

Mei Ziyu took out her purse.

“It’s free.”

The aunty smiled and was very amicable.

(What a joke, I might be a gatekeeper and don’t have any status, but giving away a key as a favor is no problem for me.)

(Also, my distant cousin is the vice logistic head.)

“Let’s enter!”

Sun Mo took the key and entered the stone castle.

The aunty wanted to say something to make him stay, but she didn’t dare to.

After working for a long time in school, she also understood that the more talented a great teacher was, the more she couldn’t afford to offend them.

She also found someone to check out her illness before, but they could only cure the symptoms and not the root. Her illness kept coming back.

“Seeing how smart you are, I won’t mind your previous offense. I’ll tell you a way to nurture your health. From now onward, don’t eat any more meat. For your case, where you eat meat three meals a day, you will die even quicker.”

Sun Mo turned his head and instructed.

“Thank you for your guidance, Sir. I’ve remembered it.”

The aunty hurriedly bowed, yet her heart was filled with bewilderment. (How does he know I eat meat three meals a day?)

Xianyu Wei followed Sun Mo and entered the stone castle. After walking a distance, they found the training room and entered it. However, she still turned her head back to look, wanting to say something but was hesitating.

“Teacher, how do you know what illnesses she has?”

Xianyu Wei was curious.

“Because I have God Hands!” Sun Mo laughed. “Undress and lie down!”

“God Hands? What’s that?”

Xianyu Wei blinked her eyes and felt a little shy. It wasn’t because her body might be seen by a guy. After all, Sun Mo was a teacher and it didn’t matter if he saw it. There was also a female teacher beside him.

She was shy because she was too fat. If she undressed, her fats would clearly be very unsightly to look at.

“A magical technique that can make you slim.”

Sun Mo took out a bottle of ancient whale oil. “Quickly.”

Xianyu Wei lay on the mat. When Sun Mo opened the bottle, a strange fragrance drifted out from it.

“Wow, it’s so fragrant!”

Xianyu Wei sniffed forcefully and even gulped down a mouthful of saliva. “Can it be drunk?”

“Calm your heart and focus your mind.”

Sun Mo instructed.

The massage started. Very soon, spirit qi gushed forth from Sun Mo’s hands, condensing into the genie. It lowered his head and looked at Xianyu Wei. After that, it immediately shivered.

A person could actually be so fat to this extent?

“Quickly press!”

Sun Mo instructed the genie via his gaze. Xianyu Wei was so fat and had such a large body area. He would die from fatigue if he was the only one massaging her.

(No can do! No can do!)

The genie shook his head.

Xianyu Wei turned her head and then saw a muscular dude standing beside her. This thing had a strange skin color and a turban on his head. Its upper body was clad in an unbuttoned corset and his glistening muscles were fully revealed.

The most terrifying thing was that it had no legs.

“Ghost!”

Xianyu Wei screamed and was like a fish that was struggling to breathe after being dragged up the shore. After that, a punch that was like an artillery shell blasted toward the genie.

Bang!
