After Liang Hongda finished his closing speech, the 1-star exam was over. Everyone could go home and find their own mothers.
"What about you guys? Do you plan on having fun for a few days and touring around Songan Prefecture, or do you want to go straight back to Jinling?"
Sun Mo definitely had to return.
However, with Little Silver, it was only an hour's journey.
"I'm going back!"
Li Ziqi still had to prepare for the 4-star personal disciple battle. Hence, she didn't want to waste even a single minute.
The other Calabash Brothers also chose to go home.
The little sunny egg's excellence caused them to feel a sense of danger. They felt a strong urge to learn from her.
"Alright!"
Sun Mo felt very gratified.
This was the kind of competitive atmosphere he wanted.
If a student wanted to learn well, teachers and parents couldn't force him to learn. Instead, they had to guide him to learn and compete on his own.
Why do the students in those key middle schools generally have better grades?
Other than the quality of the teachers and the quality of the students, the most important thing was the learning atmosphere.
After class, everyone was still studying in their seats or discussing problems. As time passed, those who wanted to go out to play stopped.
"Teacher Sun, please wait!"
"Teacher Sun, congratulations!"
"Teacher Sun, I wonder if you have the time. I've booked a private room at the Swallow Phoenix Brothel and would like to congratulate your brilliant disciple for obtaining the top spot!"
When one of them walked toward Sun Mo and started to chat, the others couldn't hold it in any longer.
This opportunity was hard to come by. If he didn't make use of this opportunity to befriend Sun Mo while he was still a 3-star great teacher, he wouldn't have any more chances when Sun Mo's star level was higher.
"Teacher Sun, congratulations!"
As a gentle voice rang out, all the noise in the surroundings disappeared.
Whoosh!
Everyone turned their heads and saw the 7-star great teacher Tong Xugao smiling as he walked over. He clasped his fist at Sun Mo.
"Tong shi!"
Sun Mo returned the greeting.
"Your brilliant disciple's understanding of spirit runes is truly an eye-opener."
Tong Xugao wasn't just flattering him. He was praising him sincerely.
"Teacher Tong is praising me too much. Ziqi still has many areas to learn!"
After seeing Tong Xugao and Sun Mo chatting for a while, they started to chat as they walked. Moreover, they seemed to have the intention to drink a cup together.
Do you have to be so shameless?
He actually used the Silent Out of Fear Halo to make everyone shut up!
Hmph!
When it comes to bootlicking, if I admit that I'm number two, no one would dare claim to be number one.
Make me talk if you can!
Let's compete fairly!
Despite thinking this way, these low-star great teachers tactfully didn't get close to Sun Mo.
Don't just look at how Tong Xugao's attitude was amicable and he was chatting cheerfully with Sun Mo. That was because Sun Mo had the qualifications to do so. If it was someone else, they would surely be scolded by Tong Xugao to the point where they couldn't even take care of themselves.
Did they really think that a 7-star great teacher wouldn't get angry?
If such a person was placed in the Nine Greats, he would be a primary school tycoon. He would have a large group of people working for him.
Since ancient times, no matter what industry or profession it was, the higher one climbed, the harder it was. If one wanted to be at the top, it meant that one had to surpass many people.
How many seven-stars were there in the entire Nine States?
Therefore, every single one of them was worth roping in.
Seeing that Tong Xugao wanted to have a long chat with him, Sun Mo immediately smiled and took the initiative to treat him to a meal.
"It should be my treat!"
Tong Xugao was very open-minded and didn't mind such a small matter. However, he had a higher opinion of Sun Mo in his heart.
This was a young man who understood the ways of the world.
Not aloof, not arrogant!
He would not be arrogant and look down on others just because he had some talent.
"Teacher, I'll go and make arrangements. Swallow Phoenix Inn."
Tong Xugao's personal disciple didn't wait for his teacher's instructions. He took the initiative to say something and then left.
When Sun Mo's group arrived in the carriage, the boss of the inn was already waiting at the entrance.
Being able to open the most luxurious inn in a location like Song An Manor, the boss's identity must be very respected. But now, he had to respectfully welcome them in advance.
Sun Mo had been here before, but he didn't have such prestige. The boss only came out to toast a cup of wine and said a few auspicious words.
"I still have to rise in stars and become a secondary saint!"
Sun Mo set a small goal for himself. "I have to strive to rise to 4-stars within three years."
The main test for 4-stars was the personal disciples battle. Therefore, Sun Mo could only hope that his Calabash Brothers would grow faster and ascend the Hero Rankings as soon as possible.
As for the few stars below, it wasn't a problem for Sun Mo.
For the 5-star examination, one had to comprehend at least 15 great teacher halos, including Teacher for a Day, Father for Life.
This was the standard.
Although Sun Mo would occasionally use this halo to admonish his students and make them kneel down, it was actually a halo of self-restraint and self-restraint.
Only by treating the students like their own sons would one be able to comprehend this halo.
This meant that great teachers had to love and care for each of their students from the bottom of their hearts. They shouldn't think of their own careers and treat them as tools.
Therefore, if one wanted to comprehend it, they had to bring out the spirit of dedication that would last until the end of their lives.
Then, they had to grasp a grandmaster-grade specialty.
Sun Mo knew both of them. In addition to the newly learned 'Rotten Wood Can't Be Carved', he had already grasped 16 great teacher halos.
To put it bluntly, this test was a test of a great teacher's love.
When treating students, one mustn't be selfish or biased. One must have a spirit of dedication that would rather sacrifice oneself for the sake of helping their students.
The Swallow Phoenix Restaurant was very popular. One had to queue up several days in advance to be able to eat there.
Tong Xugao definitely wouldn't book a seat in advance. But now, he was directly invited to the top floor and sat in the private room with the best scenery. Even the Calabash Brothers benefited from it.
This was the benefit brought about by the identity of a 7-star great teacher.
"This cup of wine is for Teacher Sun. You have brought a new dawn to the spirit rune world."
Tong Xugao's words gave the boss, who was walking over with a cup of wine and preparing to strike up a conversation, a fright.
Although he knew that Sun Mo was very famous, it shouldn't be to the extent where a 7-star great teacher would lower his attitude to such an extent, right?
"Teacher Tong praises me too much."
Sun Mo declined. "I can't drink this cup of wine. After all, you are the senior in the spirit rune world."
"Sigh, don't flatter me. I've cultivated bitterly for 30 years, but I'm still a grandmaster. How embarrassing, how embarrassing!"
Tong Xugao felt depressed.
The other 7-star great teachers already had an ancestor-grade specialty, but Tong Xugao didn't. If it wasn't for the fact that he had four grandmaster-grade specializations, he wouldn't have enough face to lose.
The most important thing was that he had spent the most time and effort on the study of spirit runes.
Sometimes, Tong Xugao even suspected if he didn't have this talent.
Sun Mo had the miracle of reviving a withered tree and even invented circuit board spirit runes. All of these caused Tong Xugao to drool in envy. He had never had such glorious achievements in his entire life.
"Teacher Tong, you just haven't found the gateway. Once you do, your standard will improve by leaps and bounds."
Sun Mo encouraged.
"Don't use such respectful terms. Let's treat each other as equals!"
Tong Xugao didn't like such politeness.
The boss, who was left hanging at the side, didn't dare to complain. Moreover, he was a shrewd person. After listening for a while, he discovered that Tong Xugao wasn't just saying pleasantries. He truly admired Sun Mo.
No, there was even a hint of envy and worship in his words. This was impressive!
The boss couldn't help but raise Sun Mo's guest grade in his heart.
This meant that the next time Sun Mo came to the Swallow Phoenix Brothel, he wouldn't need to wait for a table. The boss would directly bring him to a private room on the top floor.
Of course, Sun Mo didn't care about this.
He wasn't a vain person.
Moreover, the little sunny egg's family had always been prepared by the royal chefs.
It was just that Sun Mo didn't know this.
...
When Sun Mo and Tong Xugao were eating, Liang Hongda was also invited back to the manor by the Zhou Clan.
"How is it?"
Liang Hongda asked as he looked at the unconscious Zhou Wenbin who was lying on the bed.
There were over ten of the best doctors in Songan Prefecture, as well as the highest-ranked botanists, herbalists, and alchemists.
There were also three gu masters and poison masters.
However, at this moment, everyone was shaking their heads with heavy expressions.
"You didn't find out the reason?"
Liang Hongda frowned. This was a little troublesome.
"Young master Zhou doesn't have any injuries on his body, and there are no signs of battle on his clothes either. He should have been ambushed."
Liu Xu introduced.
He was a 6-star great teacher who specialized in medicine and was also the attending physician this time around.
"Who ambushed him?"
Liang Hongda asked and looked at the old butler. "Where are the bodyguards? They couldn't have all died, right? "
"Back then, young master was in a bad mood and didn't allow anyone to follow him."
The old butler's tone sounded a little resentful.
It was all Sun Mo's eldest disciple's fault. If she hadn't won against the young master, the young master wouldn't have left in a fit of anger and such a thing wouldn't have happened.
"Wenbin didn't allow anyone to follow him, so you guys didn't follow him? What kind of servants are you? "
Liang Hongda scolded.
If it wasn't for the fact that he was a little far away, he would have sent a slap over.
He was the host of this year's examination, and Zhou Wenbin could be considered to have met with an accident in his territory. What if Secondary Saint Zhou blamed him?
"You really can't find out the reason?"
Liang Hongda looked around.
The great teachers were all shaking their heads.
"It should be the dark great teacher's doing!"
Liu Xu sighed. "You also know that they have some means and are very mysterious. I think we should quickly prepare a carriage and send him back to the Zhou Clan."
Given Secondary Saint Zhou's connections, he would definitely be able to find a better doctor.
Saving someone was like fighting a fire. They couldn't drag this out.
However, Liang Hongda was hesitating. Once this person was sent back, he wouldn't even have any way to salvage the situation. This was Secondary Saint Zhou's beloved grandson. If something happened to him, he wouldn't be able to get Zhou Wenbin's forgiveness even if he apologized a few times.
"Why don't we get Sun Mo to take a look? Isn't he God Hands? He should have a way to deal with this kind of illness, right? "
A great teacher suggested.
Everyone raised their brows. This suggestion wasn't bad, but who was going to invite him?
This required a lot of favors. Hence, everyone looked toward Liang Hongda.
"Why are you all still in a daze? Go and invite Great Teacher Sun! "
Liang Hongda bellowed at the old butler.
"Alright!"
The old butler actually didn't wish to invite Sun Mo. After all, he was Li Ziqi's teacher. If something happened to the young master, he could be considered to be partly responsible. However, if the young master died, he wouldn't be able to survive either. Hence, he could only make an appearance.
"Wait a minute, are you going just like that?"
Seeing the old butler leaving in such a hurry, not planning to prepare anything, Liang Hongda grew anxious.
"Ah? What else? "
The old butler was stunned.
"Prepare a gift!"
Liang Hongda felt exasperated. Were the butlers nowadays so low in their professional standards?
"Gift?"
The old butler was stunned.
(Ever since I became the little butler of the Zhou Clan, I've been receiving so many gifts that my hands are getting tired. When I go out to do something, I just need to report my name.)
Gift?
Sorry, I've never practiced it before!
"Of course, if you invite someone to do something, are you going to go empty-handed?"
Liang Hongda bellowed.
"But... but..."
The old butler still couldn't figure it out. If Sun Mo had the chance to treat the beloved grandson of the secondary saint, shouldn't he be rushing over?
Such a chance to curry favor and do favors was something that others wouldn't have even if they wanted to.
How great of a fortune would it be to give Sun Mo!
