Numerous gazes landed on Lu Changhe, nobody understood what was wrong with this brat.
After Lu Changhe slammed into the table, he still didn't manage to grasp that bit of inspiration. However, the intense pain caused him to return to his senses. He instantly understood that he was still in class.
If he angered Teacher Sun and couldn't attend his lessons, what should he do?
In an instant, Lu Changhe's clothes were drenched in cold sweat. He stuttered as he tried to explain, "I … I looked at your description and felt …"
Looking at this terrified student, Sun Mo wasn't angry. After all, the favorable impression points contributed by this student was sufficient to show that he acknowledged him.
Lu Changhe, 15 years old, fifth level of the body refinement realm!
Strength: 6. Fighting is not my forte.
Intelligence: 7. Above average. Occasional burst of great wisdom!
Agility 6. I like to take naps lying down.
…
Potential Value: Average
Note: He has quite good talent in the study of spirit runes. Hence, it's best to advise him to give up on learning martial runes!
Looking at Lu Changhe's data, Sun Mo indicated for him to sit down. "There's no need to explain, I understand."
"Thank you, teacher!"
Lu Changhe bowed and sat down. He heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. This Teacher Sun was a very good person!
"If everyone is interested in the study of spirit runes, you can come to my class in the future!"
Sun Mo smiled and picked up two pieces of spirit rune paper, waving them casually. "Those who want this can raise their hands!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
All hands went up.
What a joke! This was a Spirit Gathering Rune that could create a Qi Tornado. It was of a very high grade. Only a fool would not want it.
Lu Changhe wanted nothing more than to stick his arm in front of Sun Mo and let Sun Mo see himself.
Lu Zhiruo also raised her fair and tender hand.
"Can't you grow up a little? Teacher is trying to build up his reputation. Don't cause trouble."
Li Ziqi pulled down Lu Zhiruo's hand.
For such spirit runes, Sun Mo could draw one in 15 minutes. It was simply too easy. Even if the papaya girl didn't want it, Sun Mo would definitely give it to her.
After all, it could increase the efficiency of cultivation.
"That's true!"
Lu Zhiruo was enlightened.
"Here, this is for you!"
Sun Mo walked toward Lu Changhe and passed one to him. "Your talent in the study of spirit runes is very good, don't waste it."
"Thank you, teacher!"
Lu Changhe hurriedly stood up and expressed his thanks. He received the spirit rune with both hands and greedily stared at it.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Lu Changhe + 25. Neutral (40/100).
As for the other one, Sun Mo gave it to a new student who was interested in the study of spirit runes. As for other students with impure motives, Sun Mo didn't care about them.
The other students looked regretful. Such a Spirit Gathering Rune could be sold for a lot of money.
The bell rang, signaling the end of the class.
"Then, students, see you in the next class. By the way, I have something to do today, so I won't be answering any questions now."
Sun Mo packed up his things and turned to leave. He still had to make use of the time to sort out the essence he had comprehended in the afternoon.
Hearing this, the students revealed looks of disappointment.
"It's not a loss to be able to see Teacher Sun drawing such a high-grade Spirit-Gathering Rune!"
Some students were more open-minded and felt that they had not come to this class for nothing. They had made a small profit.
Lu Changhe sat on a chair and stared at this spirit gathering rune. It was like he was admiring a supreme beauty, his gaze unwavering.
"Student, can you sell this Spirit Gathering Rune to me?"
A chubby male student interrupted Lu Changhe.
"Ah?"
Lu Changhe started. After that, he shook his head. "I'm not selling!"
"Don't be in such a hurry to reject me. I'll pay 300 taels!"
The male student didn't give up. He stretched out his hand. "My name is Yang Jing. Let's be friends?"
Upon hearing this price, the students who were about to leave the lecture theater all revealed looks of shock. After that, envy appeared on their faces.
300 taels was enough for them to live on for a year.
However, such a high-grade Spirit-Gathering Rune was worth this price.
"Not selling!"
Lu Changhe rejected. He rolled up the spirit rune paper and packed his things, preparing to leave.
"Wait a minute, we can discuss the price. 350 taels is not enough? 400 taels then. Hey, don't be in such a hurry to leave! "
Yang Jing chased after Lu Changhe and stretched out his hand to pull him.
"500 taels, 500 taels should be enough, right?"
Yang Jing put on an expression as though he was bleeding profusely.
Upon hearing this price, the students suddenly felt a sense of regret as though they had just missed out on 500 taels of silver. One must know that they had the chance to obtain it as well!
If they had known that Teacher Sun would gift out a Spirit-Gathering Rune, they would have sat in the first three rows.
"500 taels?"
Lu Changhe stared at Yang Jing's small eyes that were filled with craftiness. He couldn't help but mock, "Since you are willing to pay, you should know your stuff. Do you think 500 taels of silver is enough to buy it?"
"Student, let's talk things over nicely!"
Yang Jing chortled.
"From your words, you are planning to resell it, right? I'm sorry to tell you that my clan runs a spirit rune shop. This Spirit-Gathering Rune is at least a sixth-level one. You have to pay 1,000 taels of silver to buy it! "
When Lu Changhe's words rang out, everyone was shocked.
The other male student who had obtained the Spirit-Gathering Rune was named Wei Li. He was holding onto the spirit rune paper normally, but when he heard the price, his hand subconsciously trembled as he hurriedly kept the spirit rune paper.
After that, a feeling of lingering fear assaulted his heart.
If he damaged the spirit rune paper, 1,000 taels of silver would be gone!
"I don't plan to resell it. I want to use it for myself!"
How would Yang Jing dare to admit it? If his actions were to be spread to the ears of the teachers, he would surely be blacklisted.
In school, teachers would often give out all sorts of items during class. Hence, there was an unwritten rule that only students could use the spirit rune paper for themselves. They were absolutely not allowed to resell it for money.
"Use it for yourself?"
Lu Changhe counter-asked.
"Yes, use it for myself. Since you said 1,000 taels of silver, I'll buy it!"
Yang Jing had an expression as though he was at a disadvantage, but he was actually secretly happy in his heart. His clan didn't have a mine, but his father was a big tea merchant. His clan owned tens of shops and a tea plantation that spanned over 1,000 mu. He could be considered a second-generation wealthy family.
Yang Jing's cultivation depended on piling up resources. He had used a lot of such spirit gathering runes. This was why he knew how valuable this one was.
"Buy it? Even if you give me 10,000 taels of silver, I won't sell it! "
Lu Changhe coldly snorted.
"Oi, this is meaningless. Have you seen 10,000 taels of silver before? If I really gave it to you, would you not sell it? "
Yang Jing's expression sank.
The other students didn't leave either. They were spectating this unexpected conflict. In their hearts, they also felt that this fellow who banged his head on the desk was bragging.
That was 10,000 taels of silver. Who wouldn't be envious?
"Hehe, 10,000 taels of silver? You still don't understand the true value of this spirit rune! "
Lu Changhe looked at Yang Jing, his eyes filled with a sense of superiority.
"Then what do you think its value is? If you can't say it, don't blame me for being impolite! "
Yang Jing was angry as well.
"Teacher Sun's spirit rune isn't the one everyone is familiar with. It's simplified a few strokes!"
As Lu Changhe spoke, he opened the spirit rune paper.
"What?"
"What are you talking about? If it's simplified a few strokes, would the spirit rune still be effective? "
"Do you think I've never drawn spirit runes before?"
The students all started to talk at the same time because this was basically impossible.
The study of spirit runes had been developed for over ten thousand years. It was unknown how many times these basic spirit runes had been improved by spirit rune grandmasters. They had become the most perfect diagrams that were very simple to draw, but their might wouldn't be weakened.
What was Lu Changhe saying now?
Sun Mo missed a few strokes? Did he think he was a great ancestor? No, even if he was a great ancestor, it wouldn't be so easy for him to improve the spirit rune.
Because after so many years, these basic spirit runes were already close to perfection. They used the simplest diagram to achieve the strongest effect.
Lu Changhe couldn't be bothered to argue with these fools. He directly opened the spirit rune paper and pointed at a few spots. After that, he hurriedly closed it because he was worried that these people would damage this spirit rune. No, it wouldn't even be allowed to dirty it. If that really happened, he would surely be angered to death.
A few students who understood spirit runes were dumbfounded. After that, bewilderment could be seen on their faces.
"It seems like a few strokes are really missing?"
"It's not 'seems', it's true!"
"That's impossible, right? Teacher Sun actually improved the spirit rune? "
These few students started to argue intensely, causing the spectators to be filled with shock.
"Do you understand now? This spirit rune represents that a huge commotion is about to occur in the spirit rune world! "
Lu Changhe looked at Yang Jing with a look of disdain.
Yang Jing clenched his fists tightly. He really wanted to beat Lu Changhe up, but he knew that he mustn't do so. This was because Lu Changhe seemed to have logic in his words. Hence, if this matter blew up and he was caught by the teaching authorities, the unlucky one would be him.
"Hmph!"
Lu Changhe turned and left.
"Oi, don't go. Let us take another look at it!"
A few students who understood spirit runes hurriedly chased after him. Lu Changhe instantly increased his speed, and a few others turned to block Wei Li.
"Don't be like this. Even if you beat me to death, I won't let you guys see this spirit rune!"
Wei Li hugged the cylindrical spirit rune paper and stared at these students. That resolute attitude of his made it seem like he was defending his life.
Outside the classroom, Li Ziqi leaned against the wall and watched as Lu Changhe left.
"Teacher's attainments in the study of spirit runes are actually so impressive?" Lu Zhiruo was shocked. She had heard the conversation earlier. "Eldest martial sister, did you know about this long ago?"
"Yes!"
Li Ziqi had an eidetic memory, and her memory was extremely broad. For basic spirit runes like this, she had long since engraved them in her mind.
Hence, when Sun Mo drew a third of the second spirit gathering rune, she could already tell that something was wrong. At that time, she had thought that her teacher had drawn it wrongly and was almost frightened to death.
Just when Li Ziqi was racking her brains, thinking of how to redeem her teacher's reputation, the spirit gathering rune was actually completed. Moreover, it even produced a spirit tornado. This meant that the grade of the spirit gathering rune wasn't low.
At that moment, Li Ziqi's mind was in a mess. However, she was a genius with full 10 points in intellect. In just a few minutes, she figured out the reason.
After the class ended, Li Ziqi didn't leave with Sun Mo. She waited outside the classroom, wanting to secretly buy that spirit gathering rune and study it. Who knew that Lu Changhe's talent in spirit runes wasn't bad? He could see through the true value of this spirit gathering rune.
"Let's go!"
Li Ziqi knew that it was already impossible for her to buy it. "However, our teacher is truly impressive!"
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Li Ziqi + 30. Friendly (336/1,000).
"That's for sure!"
Lu Zhiruo felt that there was no doubt about it.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Lu Zhiruo + 30. Friendly (583/1,000).
