Sun Mo could understand Fang Duanwu's feelings. His mother was about to die. In the last days of her life, he wanted to pass the 1-star great teacher exam and tell her that her son had made some achievements and didn't bring shame to her. Also, his life in the future would be stable and he wouldn't have to worry about his livelihood.
Fang Duanwu felt that this way, his mother would be able to pass on with a smile. However, he had forgotten that the occupation of a great teacher was to impart knowledge and nurture people. Reputation was the most important.
In other words, in order to protect their reputation, great teachers were willing to sacrifice their lives.
Why was it so difficult for the Daynight Starlord to recruit a student when he was already a Quasi-sage?
Because his reputation was not good. Young people with great ambitions did not lack teachers. Why should they follow you and become a street rat that was hated by everyone?
What right does a person who cheated to become a teacher have to teach students?
A man with a bit of pride would probably feel embarrassed and self-reproach every time he faced a student.
"Got it!"
Uncle Soul bowed toward Sun Mo and then floated back to the classroom.
He suddenly understood why Sun Mo could become the number one great teacher in the Nine Provinces at such a young age. Putting aside his strength and talent, his mental state was something that many high-ranking great teachers would find hard to achieve.
"Uncle Soul, you're finally back!"
Fang Duanwu was very nervous. "What happened?"
Uncle Soul shook his head when he saw Fang Duanwu's flustered appearance. Given how unconfident Fang Duanwu was, who would believe that he was a 1-star great teacher?
"Let's go!"
Uncle Hun said.
"Ah?"
Fang Duanwu was stunned. "Where are we going?"
"Go home!"
Uncle Soul sighed. "You've been discovered!"
Dong!
Fang Duanwu was so scared that his legs went soft and he slid to the ground. His body began to tremble and he looked out of the window subconsciously. "It's Grand Master Sun, isn't it? I knew he was so powerful. How could I not be discovered when I cheated? It's over, it's over, my life is over. "
"What are you doing?"
The three invigilators immediately walked over and spoke sternly.
Uncle Hun no longer wasted his breath and took the lead to float out.
"I … I'm not taking the test anymore!"
Fang Duanwu got up, dropped a sentence, and ran out of the examination hall with his head down.
"What happened?"
The First Star Assistant Exam was incomprehensible.
"He must have realized that the question was too difficult and couldn't solve it, so he gave up!"
The two-star examiner picked up the paper and glanced at it casually. Then, he frowned.
"What happened?"
The 1-star assistant examiner craned his neck to look.
"I've already answered all the questions correctly. Logically speaking, I shouldn't give up!"
The countenance of the 2-star auxiliary examiner turned heavy. He recalled that Sun Mo had been standing outside the window for a very long time, looking at this examinee. "Could he have cheated?"
That 5-star assisting examiner was already standing at the classroom's entrance. He glanced toward the corridor and saw that at the end of the corridor, at the staircase, that examinee was kowtowing to Sun Mo.
Alright, there was no need to guess anymore. Teacher Sun must have discovered that he was cheating, but for some reason, he didn't expose him.
"It's over. I was planning to perform well to win Grandmaster Sun's favor and get a Imperial Spirit Rune."
The Five Star Auxiliary Examiner had a gloomy look on his face. After that, he was puzzled. How did that examinee cheat?
If we're talking about relying on the art of spiritual control, I'm a Spirit Controller, the kind that's half a step into the Grandmaster level!
Why didn't I notice?
…
The first day of the written examination ended. Other than Fang Duanwu, who was personally caught by Sun Mo, there were over 20 other cheaters who were caught.
These were all examinees who felt that their cheating methods were brilliant and wanted to get lucky. If it was in the past, they might really succeed. But this year, the rank of the invigilator was simply too high.
In the office, Sun Mo looked at the files of these examinees and shook his head. He then picked up his brush and wrote down his comments.
"Yaoguang, save these files. After the examination ends, hand them over to the Saint Gate."
Sun Mo instructed.
"Teacher, this guy is a student from the Heavenly Mystery Academy!"
Qin Yaoguang took out one of the files and reminded Sun Mo.
Once he was handed over to the Saint Gate, this student's great teacher career would end prematurely. One could say that Sun Mo would decide their future.
"So what?"
Sun Mo counter-asked.
"He's a fifth-year student. This time around, he came for the examination purely because he made a bet with a classmate. His reputation is very great."
Qin Yaoguang felt that this was a genius and she should give him a chance.
"Save it!"
Sun Mo sighed. "Everyone has to be responsible for their own actions. If someone is discovered to be cheating, they'll be banned from future examinations and their great teacher qualifications will be stripped. This is the rule that the Saint Gate has implemented for over 1,000 years. Even if he is an absolute genius, he doesn't have the qualifications for the Saint Gate to make an exception for him."
"Oh!"
Qin Yaoguang no longer tried to persuade him.
Sun Mo was preparing to continue working, but the door was suddenly slammed open by Lu Zhiruo.
"Teacher, the Hanyan Boat has caught fire and sank into the river. I heard that tens of examinees have died!"
Lu Zhiruo had an anxious look on her face. Upon hearing this, her first thought was that things were bad.
If such a casualty happened during the examination, it would cause others to lower the Central Province Academy's evaluation.
Swish!
Sun Mo stood up and walked out while asking, "They didn't prepare for the examination during the examination and still had the mood to drink with prostitutes?"
By the time Sun Mo rushed to the riverside, the boat had already sunk. Ying Baiwu was giving instructions at the riverside, finding a boatman who was good at swimming to fish up the corpse.
This place was in a mess, and there was a large circle of people watching the commotion.
"Baiwu, Teacher is here!"
Lu Zhiruo called out.
"Teacher!"
Ying Baiwu hurriedly ran over.
"What's going on?"
Sun Mo glanced over. The people from the government office hadn't arrived yet.
"I rushed over as soon as I received the news, but I'm still too late."
During the examination, Ying Baiwu was responsible for the safety of the Central Province Academy. In order to guard against a sneak attack from Dark Dawn, she had taken care of all the city foxes in Jinling. Relying on them to gather information, she was able to rush over at the first instant when the boat was in trouble.
"According to the testimonies of the two survivors, they are examinees who did quite well in the written examination. They heard that the famous prostitute Su Xiaoxiao is performing for free today to congratulate the examinees and wish them the best in the examinations. The examinees who obtained the highest ranking would even be able to kiss Su Xiaoxiao after the examination."
Ying Baiwu lowered her voice.
"..."
Sun Mo was speechless. Were these examinees too arrogant? Of course, they might be controlled by their lower bodies. After all, Su Xiaoxiao could be considered very famous in the Qinhuai River.
In any case, she wouldn't even be able to afford tea if she didn't spend at least 1,000 taels of silver.
After Lu Zhiruo heard this, she heaved a sigh of relief. "It's good that Dark Dawn isn't the culprit!"
"It shouldn't be!"
For the sake of the school's safety, Ying Baiwu hadn't slept much during these few days. In the end, such a thing still happened. She was really angered to death.
"You guys can go back first. I'll handle this!"
Sun Mo felt a headache. Tens of examinees had died. This was a major matter and he had to be held accountable. At the very least, the boss of this pleasure boat wouldn't be able to escape the calamity of imprisonment.
It wasn't that he wanted him to pay with his life, but he was worried that if he ran away, no one would compensate him.
Sun Mo busied himself until dawn before he prepared to return to the school. As the chief examiner, he had to be present to deal with sudden incidents. However, he had just returned to the school and hadn't even warmed his seat when Lu Zhiruo ran over anxiously.
"Teacher, something bad has happened. The Drum Tower Street Welfare Institute is on fire!"
"What?"
Sun Mo was shocked. He directly activated the Imperial Sky Spirit Rune and rushed toward the Drum Tower Street.
After the Central Province Academy's financial situation took a turn for the better, Sun Mo started to allocate funds to establish a children's welfare institute to take in those homeless children.
Right now, there were over 20 of them in the entire Jinling. Among them, the Drum Tower Street Welfare Institute was the largest one. The children there all had no problems with their bodies and their talents weren't bad. Sun Mo had planned to give them a chance to attend school when they were of age, but in the end, such a thing happened!
Sun Mo's countenance was very heavy.
Two fires in one night. Wasn't this too unlucky?
He started to suspect that this was done by Dark Dawn. Maybe, it was a diversion. However, so many children had died, so he had no choice but to go.
Ten minutes later, Sun Mo arrived at the Drum Tower Street.
The fire brigade in Jinling was already putting out the fire, but it was useless because the fire was too big. Usually, in such a situation, they would tear down the surrounding buildings to prevent the fire from spreading. After that, they would wait for the fire to die down.
Sun Mo found the leader of the fire brigade and grabbed him by the collar. "Where are the children? How many have been saved? "
"I don't know."
This middle-aged man was sweating profusely and was so frightened that his countenance was pale. "Sun... Great Teacher Sun, the fire... the fire is too big. If our people went in, they would just be sending themselves to death."
Pak!
Sun Mo pushed the middle-aged man away and activated the Invulnerable Golden Body and the Battlegod Protection, directly rushing into the welfare institute. Actually, he knew that this action wouldn't help the situation. With such a big fire, some people would have been burned to death.
"No!"
The middle-aged man jumped in fright and knelt down with a thud. If something happened to Sun Mo, His Majesty would execute his entire family.
"Great Teacher Sun, quickly come back!"
...
On the west side of the Central Province Academy, in a grocery store facing the street.
"Sun Mo and An Xinhui have already left!"
The Daynight Starlord glanced at the Daybreak Starlord, who was beside him, in puzzlement. "We have such a strong military force. Why do we have to play the trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain?"
The Daynight Starlord really wanted to exchange blows with Sun Mo.
"This is called being cautious!"
The Daybreak Starlord held a bamboo cup with iced soybean milk inside. "Don't underestimate this school. They also have a saint, two secondary saints, and an old headmaster whose consciousness is unknown!"
"Trash!"
The Daynight Starlord's lips twitched. He pushed open the door and teleported into the school.
The Daybreak Starlord looked at the school that was enveloped in mist and kept feeling uneasy. Why did he feel that things would go wrong this time around?
(Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. I'll quickly get the Great Dream Heart Sutra and leave!)
The Corona Starlord didn't like to be sneaky when doing things. Therefore, he entered from the main entrance.
"Oi, what are you doing?"
Mister Qin, who was staying in the gatehouse, immediately ran out when he saw this uninvited guest. "This is the Central Province Academy. Unauthorized people are forbidden to enter..."
Bang!
Before Mister Qin finished speaking, he was sent flying by an invisible force. He fell over ten meters away and fainted.
The school gate of the Central Province Academy was made of metal railings. When the Corona Starlord approached, the railings twisted and bounced off. There were some crickets and insects chirping in the corners, but they instantly stopped.
In the study, Yang Shizhan, who was reading at the table, suddenly lifted his head with a heavy expression.
Tsk!
Three secondary saints had arrived. What was Dark Dawn planning to do?
