Chapter 47: Number One Great Teacher in Jinling!

Chapter 47: Number One Great Teacher in Jinling!

“I can defeat Peng Wanli and join the battle hall because of Teacher Sun Mo’s efforts!” Qi Shengjia roared.

“Ah?”

Yuan Feng fell into a daze, and he subconsciously glanced at Qin Fen.

Qin Fen, who had been waiting to mock Sun Mo, felt extremely awkward. He wanted to find a hole and dive into it to hide.

“Then...then why did you acknowledge Qin Fen as your master?”

Yuan Feng questioned.

“My...my aptitude is too bad, and I don’t have the face to beg Teacher Sun Mo to take me as his disciple. If I did, I would definitely become a taint on his teaching career. Coincidentally, teaching assistant Qin Fen came to look for me saying that he wanted to accept me as his disciple, and I decided to agree.”

Qi Shengjia explained.

After he finished speaking, the entire place was in an uproar.

Although Qi Shengjia didn’t say too much, everyone understood the meaning of his words. Because this fellow felt inferior, he didn’t dare to ask Sun Mo to be his master. Hence, he chose Qin Fen who went knocking on his door.

Comparing this, it was very clear who was stronger between Sun Mo and Qin Fen.

For people like Yue Rongbo, they thought deeper. Qi Shengjia referred to Qin Fen as a teaching assistant while he called Sun Mo as a teacher. From this, one could see the difference in statuses the two of them held in his heart. Did Qi Shengjia not know how face-smacking this was for Qin Fen by saying all this in public?

Then again, Qi Shengjia looked like an honest person who would forgive his wife even if she turned out to be unfaithful on their wedding day. Evidently, he didn’t think about how serious the consequences of his words were.

Or maybe, he did think about it. However, he respected Sun Mo too much; hence, he was helping Sun Mo to explain.

“Have you heard it?”

Li Ziqi questioned Yuan Feng.

Yuan Feng’s thoughts were in turmoil, and he didn’t know how to explain it. On the contrary, Sun Mo had a cold expression on his face as he spoke up.

“Qi Shengjia, when have I ever taught you before? Don’t try to form a relationship with me randomly!”

When Sun Mo heard Qi Shengjia’s words, he felt extremely gratified. However, he was also worried about Qi Shengjia. (Do you have to be so honest? After saying these words, even if you are not driven away by Qin Fen, you would be ignored for a few years. In any case, you will die for sure.)

If a personal disciple was expelled by a teacher, that would be a huge taint in their life. Basically, it would be extremely difficult for them if they wanted to find another teacher.

After hearing Sun Mo’s words, Yue Rongbo nodded, feeling even more admiration for Sun Mo.

Ding!

Favorable impression points from Yue Rongbo +1.

Sun Mo glanced at Yue Rongbo. Were teachers at the 3-stars and above all so stingy? Would they die if they gave him more favorable points?

In truth, Sun Mo understood that the higher the star-grade of a great teacher was, the more situations they had seen before. Besides, they had seen too many geniuses. It was too difficult for them to admire a junior and feel a very favorable opinion of him.

“Ah?”

Qi Shengjia was startled. Clearly, he didn’t understand Sun Mo’s good intentions and thought that Sun Mo was really angered. Hence, he kowtowed three more times with even more force.

“Qi Shengjia, since you worship him so much. Our verbal agreement in the past no longer counts.”

Qin Fen emphasized the words ‘verbal agreement’, and this could be considered as him finding a way out of the situation.

He didn’t have Divine Sight and naturally wouldn’t know about Qi Shengjia’s potential. When he saw this fellow breaking through two levels in such a short time and even jumped levels to defeat Peng Wanli, he thought that this fellow was enlightened and would rise meteorically. Hence, he took the initiative to recruit Qi Shengjia.

“Teaching assistant Qin?” Qi Shengjia cried out in shock. After that, he secretly cast a glance at Sun Mo. In truth, he really wanted to be Sun Mo’s student.

“No, it’s impossible. You are a ‘soft-rice’ guy. If it wasn’t for you hugging Headmaster An’s thigh, how could you possibly recruit any students? Do you think you are the top great teacher in Jinling City?”

Yuan Feng shook his head, his face was filled with disbelief. He pointed at Qi Shengjia and roared, “This student must be afraid to offend you because you are An Xinhui’s fiance!”

One couldn’t blame Yuan Feng for having such thoughts. He and Sun Mo were both graduates of the same batch from Songyang Academy, and they were even living in the same dorm. It could be considered that he understood Sun Mo very well. Qin Fen’s talent definitely trumped Sun Mo’s.

Just ten days ago, Sun Mo had still been a loser. Why did he suddenly become so sharp?

(If you are so awesome, why didn’t you show any of your brilliance when we were studying? Hence, you must have definitely relied on An Xinhui’s fame to cheat others.)

“Are you done?”

Sun Mo mocked.

“No.”

Yuan Feng felt even angrier when he saw the casual and relaxed expression on Sun Mo’s face. (What qualifications do you have to act so composed? Your face should be red in anger and you should quarrel with me. Quickly hit me due to being angry from embarrassment and show others your true face!)

“Pui, you are a scheming dog. Why didn’t I discover this in the past?”

Yuan Feng spat a mouthful of saliva.

“You are truly annoying. In any case, let me just tell you this. I don’t simply have two students. I have four of them!”

Sun Mo lifted four fingers.

“Ah?”

Yuan Feng was dumbstruck. There were still two more? (Who is so foolish to fall for your lies?)

“Make way! Make way! Is there a fight?”

Because Yuan Feng was shouting, there were quite a lot of people surrounding the lecture hall outside, watching the show. Xuanyuan Po just arrived, and he directly squeezed his way through the crowd.

“Oh, he’s my student!”

Sun Mo smiled lightly.

“Xuanyuan Po? Why would a genius like him follow you?”

When Xuanyuan Po saw Sun Mo, he immediately retracted his ostentatious attitude. He jogged over. After that, he stood straight and bowed. “Teacher!”

After speaking, Xuanyuan Po touched his spear and stared at Yuan Feng. “Teacher Sun Mo, is this fellow trying to find trouble with you?”

Yuan Feng was dumbfounded when he saw Xuanyuan Po protecting Sun Mo as though former was a battle hound. What was going on with these students? Did shit enter their brains?

“No way, I’m going to tell Headmaster An that you are using her name to cheat students!” Yuan Feng roared, “I cannot let the headmaster’s name and the school’s reputation be destroyed by you!”

“How noisy!”

Sun Mo hadn’t wanted to act. But when he heard that Yuan Feng wanted to complain to An Xinhui, how could he let this happen? Hence, he lifted his finger and pointed straight at Yuan Feng.

Pak!

A golden facula shot out from his finger like sparks from flint. The golden light didn’t disappear but condensed into the shape of a sharp golden arrow that shot toward Yuan Feng.

The distance was too close. Yuan Feng basically didn’t have time to react.

Swish~

The golden arrow shot into Yuan Feng’s head, and the impact caused his head to be knocked back slightly. When his head returned to the normal position, his eyes had already lost focus; there was no spirit in them.

Ah!

Yuan Feng subconsciously let out a low roar. He stared vacantly ahead. His mouth was wide open and drool flowed down, wetting his clothes.

“Ignorant and Incompetent?”

Qin Feng screamed shrilly as his expression drastically changed. He subconsciously took a step back, lengthening the distance between him and Sun Mo. The expressions on the faces of the other intern teachers were unsightly as well.

“Is that the great teacher halo, ‘Ignorant and Incompetent’?”

“I’ve never seen it before, but I heard that those under the effect of this halo would fall into a daze and become something like an imbecile!”

“How terrifying!”

The students discussed as they looked at the dazed look on Yuan Feng’s face. He was drooling and wandering about aimlessly. He even knocked into a few desks, but he had no reactions. All of the audience felt fear and trepidation. When they turned their gaze to Sun Mo again, a hint of reverence could be seen in their eyes.

This was the power of a great teacher halo!

Ding!

Favorable impression points from Qi Shengjia +15.

Prestige connection with Qi Shengjia. Friendly (373/1,000)

When Sun Mo heard the system notification, he felt a little conflicted. Should he accept Qi Shengjia as a personal disciple or not?

“20 years old, possessing two great teacher halos. Not bad at all.”

Yue Rongbo nodded. If he had three, it would be even better. However, that was an extravagant hope on his end. After all, Sun Mo just recently graduated and hadn’t taught any students before.

How could teachers comprehend a great teacher halo? There was actually a trick, and that was to teach students. Once the number of lessons exceeded a certain number, the teachers would gather enough experience and understanding. When the conditions were right, success would follow naturally, and they would comprehend a great teacher halo.

“Teacher, you are so awesome!”

Li Ziqi clapped and cheered. Quarreling with such a person was too damaging to one’s status, so Sun Mo had directly used a great teacher halo and solved the problem.

Ding!

Favorable impression points from Li Ziqi +10.

Prestige connection with Li Ziqi. Neutral (81/100).

Ding!

Favorable impression points from Lu Zhiruo +15.

Prestige connection with Lu Zhiruo. Neutral (83/100).

Although Lu Zhiruo didn’t say anything, the favorable impression points generated from her had expressed her feelings.

The eyes of the Zou brothers brightened as they surveyed Sun Mo. It seemed like Yuan Feng’s words were unreliable. This teacher Sun Mo wasn’t a ‘soft-rice’ guy. In any case, even if he cheated, being able to accept four students also meant that he had some capabilities.

“Teacher, do you want to accept them as disciples?”

Xuanyuan Po pulled his spear out as an aura of sharpness radiated forth. “Come, fight me first and let me see if you guys are qualified to be Teacher’s students or not!”

Xuanyuan Po loved battle, and his aura immediately became sharp the moment he took out his spear. He was like a ferocious beast choosing targets to devour.

The expressions of the Zou brothers turned heavy. As geniuses, they could feel that Xuanyuan Po was a very strong enemy.

Pak!

Li Ziqi rolled the information booklet and used it to hit Xuanyuan Po’s head. “Don’t start trouble!”

(The aptitudes of the twins aren’t bad. What if they got chased away after being beaten by you?)

“Why are you hitting me?”

Xuanyuan Po stared at Li Ziqi. His attitude didn’t soften just because she was a girl.

“Teacher, he is just a battle addict that likes to fight. His EQ is too bad!”

Li Ziqi was speechless. (I’m standing beside Sun Mo. Normal people should be able to guess my identity, right?)

“Teacher Sun Mo!”

The Zou brothers greeted him. During the first day of the student recruitment meet, they had seen Liu Mubai try to recruit Xuanyuan Po on the Martial Arts Platform.

Liu Mubai was very famous. He was one of the targets the Zou Brothers wanted as a master. Now when they saw that Xuanyuan Po had chosen Sun Mo, they naturally didn’t dare to slight Sun Mo.

Upon seeing this scene, Qin Fen was anxious and angry. He glared at Sun Mo and roared.

“Sun Mo, do you dare to compete with me?”

During these two days, Qin Fen’s path of accepting disciples was not smooth at all, and he had been rejected many times. He had failed to recruit all the students he had his eyes on, and he was enraged by it. Hence, he could only lower his target and recruit Qi Shengjia.

Earlier, he had put in so much effort and finally convinced the Zou brothers. But now, the meat before his eyes was about to fly away, so it would be a wonder if he wasn’t angry.

Sun Mo didn’t reply. He glanced at the brothers as their data rose from their bodies.

“Sun Mo, are you not the number one great teacher in Jinling? Come on, fight with me!”

Qin Fen wanted to spur Sun Mo into action by making negative remarks. He wanted to defeat Sun Mo fair and square to let Xuanyuan Po and Li Ziqi know that they had missed out on the chance to follow an outstanding teacher like him.

Sun Mo wasn’t even worthy to lift his shoes for him!
