For ordinary students, taking on a master was a major event in their lives. Moreover, for someone of Li Ziqi's status, taking on a master was of the utmost importance. She had to choose carefully.
Li Ziqi's father found a secondary saint for her to be her teacher. It was a pity that her athletic ability was almost 0, and there was almost no future for her to speak of on the path of cultivation. Hence, she wasn't liked by that secondary saint and was tactfully rejected.
From then on, Li Ziqi started to feel depressed and rejected the idea of acknowledging a master. This lasted until she went to the outskirts of Jinling to relax and met Sun Mo by the Cloud Pavilion Lake. She was convinced by his words, 'If your heart is clear, why would you fear the wind and rain'.
That sentence of priceless advice directly lit up Li Ziqi's gloomy life, causing her to reveal a smile again.
Given Li Ziqi's status, even if she couldn't become a secondary saint, it wouldn't be a problem for her to become a 9-star great teacher. At the very least, she could also casually choose 6-star or 7-star great teachers. However, she had secretly taken Sun Mo as her teacher.
How many stars did Sun Mo have?
No stars!
Luckily, he was now officially employed. If he still had the title of an intern teacher, Li Ziqi felt that her cousin might break his legs.
He couldn't hide the fact that he had acknowledged Zhang Xuan as his master for too long. Thus, before that, he had to quickly raise his cultivation level and show some results.
At that time, when his aunt asked him about it, he would be able to confidently say that Teacher Sun was very amazing and could help him grow.
If that was the case, Sun Mo might be able to obtain his aunt's approval.
Hence, although Li Ziqi didn't wish to let that muscular freak with a purple headscarf knead her body, in order to deal with her aunt, she had to endure it.
"Alright!"
This was simply a small matter. Moreover, Sun Mo was also preparing to continue massaging the students.
"How about tomorrow afternoon then?"
Li Ziqi set a time. After all, Sun Mo's massage was different from the massages everyone was used to. She needed to make some preparations as well.
At the very least, a quiet and undisturbed place was a must.
"Sure!"
Sun Mo glanced at the sun. "You guys can go and eat, I won't be going. I still have something to do. Zhiruo, take my teacher token and eat whatever you want to eat. Don't try to save money for me."
"En!"
Lu Zhiruo nodded.
Seeing Sun Mo quickly leaving, not giving her a chance to suggest anything, Li Ziqi helplessly sighed. The first gathering was a failure.
…
Diamond Fruit, worth 3,000 favorable impression points.
Because Sun Mo wanted to know how much it could improve him, he went to the combat strength dojo first to fight a bronze man to test his combat strength.
It was lunchtime and there were very few people. However, Sun Mo still met a 'colleague'.
"Hi, Teacher Sun!"
Du Xiao greeted them.
"Du shi!"
Sun Mo revealed a sociable smile that wouldn't make others feel that he was trying to curry favor with them, but it also wouldn't make others feel that he was neglecting them. As long as they weren't colleagues with awkward personalities, they wouldn't be able to find any problems with it.
"You also like to take the test at noon when there are not many people?"
Du Xiao walked over.
"I'm afraid of the noise!"
Sun Mo shrugged.
This woman was in her twenties and had ordinary looks. She was wearing an azure teacher's robe. Sun Mo had only seen her once when he had gone to the office to familiarize himself with the environment, but he hadn't spoken to her.
"I'm also afraid of the noise!"
Du Xiao smiled. "Did I disturb you?"
Sun Mo could only smile. What else could he say?
You are disturbing me. Please leave. He would definitely bear a grudge, and their relationship as colleagues would basically be over.
Du Xiao also returned a smile.
After she graduated, she came to the Central Province Academy and had been working there for three years. Even if her EQ was bad, she could still train it a little.
Seeing Sun Mo's expression, Du Xiao knew that the most considerate thing to do was to leave. However, she didn't do so because she wanted to experience Sun Mo's' God Hands'.
Du Xiao didn't go to Sun Mo's first public lecture, but Jiang Yongnian and Zhou Shanyi, who were in the same office, did.
Jiang Yongnian was a chatterbox. After he came back, he exaggerated the things that had happened that day.
Du Xiao wasn't concerned about Sun Mo taking care of the school tyrant Zhou Yong, winning the arranged battle with Feng Zewen, and offending Vice-headmaster Zhang. She only wanted to know if Sun Mo's' God Hands' were really that amazing!
Du Xiao had been employed for three years and had comprehended three great teacher halos. She also felt that her secondary occupation had reached a certain standard. Therefore, she had been preparing for the '1-star great teacher' examination.
For such an examination, it was naturally best to succeed on the first try.
Leaving aside the fact that it could increase one's confidence, it would also look better on one's resume. For those teachers who had to retake the 1-star great teacher examination a few times, even if they obtained the qualification certificate, they basically wouldn't be able to go to a better famous school.
There was no other reason. Their standards were too lousy.
Such a situation was already an unspoken rule in the great teacher world. Therefore, Du Xiao wanted Sun Mo to help her 'feel it out'.
Of course, she definitely couldn't ask for help right away. Although the possibility wasn't high, if she were to be rejected, how awkward would it be for Du Xiao? Therefore, she wanted to communicate with Sun Mo first to get a feel for his character and temper. Once they had a good relationship as colleagues, it would be easier for her to ask for help.
Sun Mo took a few deep breaths. After that, he mustered all his strength and punched the combat-strength bronze man's chest.
These bronze men were three meters tall and their entire bodies were made of bronze. They were made from rare metals mined from the Darkness Continent and secret art blueprints excavated from historical remains.
Cultivators could understand their battle prowess through attacking these bronze men. Although there was a difference, it wasn't big.
Bang!
The bronze man let out a loud bang, but it didn't move at all.
Du Xiao's gaze landed on the bronze man's abdomen. A few seconds later, the pattern formed by the golden sand in her dantian stabilized.
“310。”
Du Xiao had long since memorized the pattern and the value conversion table. When she saw that it was 310, her heart was calm. In fact, she even felt a hint of superiority as a top student.
"Below average standard!"
When Du Xiao was at the first level of the blood-ignition realm, her all-out punch would produce a value that was much higher than this.
At the ninth level of the body-refinement realm, the value of one's battle prowess would gradually increase. After breaking through 100, it would mean that one had stepped into the spirit-refinement realm. At this level, there was no fixed realm. As long as one opened all 108 acupoints in the human body, they would be able to step into the blood-ignition realm.
The lowest battle prowess in the spirit-refinement realm was 100, and the highest was 300. After that, it would be the blood-ignition realm.
The peak battle prowess at the first level of the blood-ignition realm was 400, the second level was 500, and so on. In the blood-ignition realm, one needed a total of seven times before they could produce divine force.
The peak battle prowess at the blood-ignition realm was 1,000.
Pu!
Sun Mo smiled. Although he knew that the battle prowess wouldn't be too high, he still couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw this value.
However, Sun Mo wasn't surprised by this result. The value of this punch was purely based on brute force.
Let alone fist arts, Sun Mo didn't even know how to exert force.
Swoosh!
Sun Mo pulled out his wooden blade and recalled the moves he had copied from the battle with the two intern teachers in the morning.
Golden Sun Annihilation!
Bang!
The wooden blade slashed onto the bronze man's chest.
Over ten seconds later, the pattern stabilized.
“330！”
Du Xiao's lips twitched unnoticeably. She was familiar with this move. It was an ultimate move from the Golden Sun Sword Manual, a peerless-grade earth-tier cultivation art. Its prowess wasn't bad.
A combat prowess of 330 was an average standard among those at the first level of the blood-ignition realm. If Sun Mo used ordinary moves to achieve this value, it would be considered not bad. But if he used an ultimate move, it wouldn't be enough.
After all, ultimate moves were trump cards that could decide the victor of a battle. Honestly speaking, Sun Mo's combat prowess wasn't enough.
Sun Mo shook his head. After that, he swung his arm and the wooden blade suddenly pierced out.
Gale Shooting Moon!
Ding!
The wooden blade pierced into the bronze man's heart.
After the pattern stabilized, the value was 326, which was even smaller than before.
"Teacher Sun, these two moves of yours aren't bad. However, the Golden Sun Sword Manual is still more suitable for you. The Gale Sword Art has a high requirement on speed and reaction."
Du Xiao gave a suggestion out of goodwill.
She could tell that Sun Mo had used his full strength in both attacks. This meant that his strength was his forte. Hence, he should specialize in this type of cultivation art.
However, Du Xiao didn't know that this was only Sun Mo's second time using these two moves, and he had already achieved an average combat prowess of the first level of the blood-ignition realm. If he practiced for a few more months, the destructive prowess would be even greater.
Of course, Sun Mo definitely wouldn't practice them because he looked down on them.
"I'll try something else!"
Sun Mo didn't get angry just because someone said that he wasn't good at something. He wasn't so petty. Besides, this was a normal discussion between teachers.
After taking a few deep breaths and adjusting his state, Sun Mo slashed out.
Eighteen Words Order!
Pak pak pak!
The wooden blade densely landed on the bronze man's body.
For a time, the sounds of explosions rang out incessantly.
When Sun Mo slashed out, Du Xiao's expression changed. After all, she was a teacher and her judgment wasn't bad. She could instantly tell that regardless of Sun Mo's aura or the proficiency of his moves, they had all risen by at least two levels compared to earlier.
(Also, this move is so exquisite!)
Du Xiao's eyes immediately opened wide. After she saw it, she started to think about how she should defend against or break this move if she were to fight against Sun Mo!
After that, she discovered to her astonishment that she actually didn't understand it. Or rather, she wanted to see it clearly again.
The pattern gradually stabilized.
“360？”
Sun Mo shook his head, feeling very dissatisfied. This was a combat prowess from a divine skill. How could it be so low?
"You should be content. The main usage of Immemorial Vairocana is to hit out the opponent's cultivation art. It's not for you to use in combat."
The system was speechless. Sun Mo actually looked down on this divine skill. How detestable!
"Then why don't you give me a cultivation art that's specially used for combat?!"
Sun Mo was speechless. Even if it was the Grand Universe Formless Divine Art, its main usage was to feed moves to students. It wasn't suitable for combat.
However, it would definitely be sufficient when used against ordinary teachers. But when used against geniuses like Liu Mubai, Sun Mo still felt that it was better to learn a cultivation art that was specially used for combat.
"Please work hard to accumulate favorable impression points and purchase it from the system merchant store!"
The system introduced, "Everything you want is available here. Also, any saint-tier cultivation art would require at least several hundred thousand favorable impression points."
"Then what the hell are you talking about?"
Sun Mo was unhappy. He couldn't afford it.
Just when Sun Mo was talking nonsense with the system, Du Xiao, who was standing at the side, was stunned. What cultivation art was this? It actually allowed Sun Mo's combat strength to soar to 360?
The Golden Sun Sword Manual was a peerless-grade earth-tier cultivation art. In that case, this move must be from a heaven-tier cultivation art. Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to bring about such a huge improvement.
If it wasn't for the fact that Du Xiao still had the restraint of a teacher, she almost couldn't help but ask the name of Sun Mo's cultivation art. After that, a hint of envy appeared in her heart.
A good cultivation art was just so amazing. Not only could it completely bring out the cultivator's combat strength, but it could also increase it by several times.
"Teacher Du, I'll take my leave first!"
Sun Mo bid farewell politely.
"Oh, Teacher Sun, take care!"
Du Xiao waited until Sun Mo left. Then, she stood before the combat-strength bronze man and started to make her move. Sun Mo was already so powerful now. If he rose to her level, wouldn't he be evenly matched with her?
A sense of urgency suddenly gushed forth.
Du Xiao silently swore that she mustn't let this new teacher catch up to her.
...
Sun Mo borrowed a meditation room and sat down cross-legged. He blinked twice and opened the black cube-shaped storage cabinet, taking out the Diamond Fruit.
"How do I eat this? Do I need to cook it? "
Sun Mo took the Diamond Fruit and pressed it hard, feeling a little dumbfounded.
This fruit was the size of a walnut. Its skin was uneven and looked very ugly. The most important thing was that it had a metallic and glass-like texture. It felt very hard to the touch.
As a single dog without a girlfriend, Sun Mo still had a few points in his cooking skill. He was most proficient in pickled cabbage and fish.
"Directly swallow it raw!"
The system was concise and comprehensive.
"Are you sure?"
Sun Mo took the Diamond Fruit and gestured it in front of his mouth. It was so big. He felt that he would choke to death!
"I'm sure!"
The system's tone was impatient. "Don't blame me for not reminding you. This thing also has a shelf life. The earlier you eat it, the greater the effect."
Sun Mo hesitated a little but still decided to trust the system. Hence, he stuffed the Diamond Fruit into his mouth. After that, he was dumbfounded.
"Boohoohoo!"
Sun Mo spoke, but he made muffled sounds. Because there was something stuffed in his mouth, he couldn't speak clearly.
"Wait!"
The system understood Sun Mo's meaning. He was saying that this thing couldn't be bitten through.
"F * ck your mom!"
Sun Mo cursed in his heart.
In the past, he had accidentally watched a short movie. The female lead had an indescribable ball-shaped object stuffed in her mouth, and her saliva was flowing out.
He couldn't tolerate this!
Just when Sun Mo wanted to spit out the Diamond Fruit, the fruit actually melted rapidly. After that, it felt like he had eaten a raw tomato, turning into a puddle of soft paste.
Gulp!
Sun Mo forcefully swallowed it.
After a few seconds, a warm current was born in his stomach. After that, it rapidly spread to his limbs and bones.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Spirit qi gushed out from Sun Mo's body, forming a huge and malevolent-looking beast head in front of him.
This head opened its big mouth that was filled with sharp teeth. It was like a whale sucking in water and started to devour the spirit qi in the surroundings.
Hu! Hu! Hu!
Spirit qi gushed over and gushed into the huge beast's mouth.
Sun Mo looked at this head and didn't understand what was going on. It suddenly let out a long howl toward the sky and then swallowed him in a single gulp.
Sun Mo's vision instantly turned dark. After that, he felt as if he had been thrown into a meat grinder, experiencing the feeling of being squeezed, torn, and kneaded.
Roughly one minute later, the huge beast's head exploded with a boom, revealing Sun Mo's figure.
