"I'm willing!"
Sun Mo nodded. After the tour, he already understood the operation mode of this dark famous school. It was basically the same as the modern world.
As long as it was something that a teacher knew, he would definitely impart it to his students.
This answer was in line with the Starry Academy's teaching philosophy, but Sun Mo's answer was simply too fast. There wasn't even any hesitation. This caused everyone to be in disbelief.
After all, this was an era where tofu pudding or biscuit shops would pass down their secret recipes to their sons and not their daughters.
"Sun Mo, don't feel conflicted. If you are unwilling, we won't force you!"
The big shot in the middle reiterated, "We respect every great teacher's decision."
"No matter how precious the knowledge is, if it's not passed down and it doesn't turn into results, then what's the difference between it and trash?"
Sun Mo counter-asked, "Isn't the purpose of the existence of teachers to impart knowledge and educate others?"
Buzz!
Golden spots of light exploded and shot out in all directions.
"Priceless Advice?"
The interviewers were all stunned. Was this Sun Mo broad-minded or stupid?
When they first took office, they couldn't accept the principal's philosophy. It was only after a few years that they changed their mindset.
Sun Mo was so young, yet he already had such an awareness?
The activation of Priceless Advice meant that Sun Mo was sincere.
"I feel that there's no need to ask other questions."
The middle-aged female great teacher laughed and said, "Great Teacher Sun, congratulations on joining the Starry Academy!"
The other interviewers turned to look at the middle-aged man on the far right.
Because he was the headmaster of the school, he had the highest decision-making power.
"Sun Mo, if there comes a day when these students who have learned your knowledge start a war with the people of the Nine Provinces, what would you do?"
The headmaster of Constellation Academy asked.
"Stop the war!"
Sun Mo frowned. "Also, isn't this topic a little too far away? I feel that the most important thing right now is to let the students acquire a skill to improve their lives. "
"Don't you guys feel that the productivity of the Darkness Continent is too low? With all due respect, in another three hundred years, you have no chance of winning against the people of Nine Regions. "
The interviewers nodded.
Honestly speaking, when they were exiled, they really hated those sanctimonious fellows from the Saint Gate. However, after seeing the difficult lives of the aboriginals of the Darkness Continent, they realized that the most important thing now was to let everyone live a good life.
War?
That was suicidal.
"Congratulations on joining the Starry School. Let us create glory together!"
The headmaster stood up.
"Wait!"
Sun Mo shouted, "Let me ask you something first. Are you from the warmongering faction?"
"I just hope that everyone can become equal. Everyone can live according to their own thoughts and not be restricted by others."
The principal said bluntly, "If someone wants to stand on my head, then they will definitely receive my wrath."
"Idealist?"
Sun Mo chortled.
"I know it's hard, but if you don't do it, you'll never have a chance."
The headmaster assessed Sun Mo and asked another question, "What do you think of saints?"
"Guide! Lighthouse! Wise man! "
Sun Mo was very much looking forward to becoming a saint.
"In my opinion, a saint is just a person who knows more. His mission is to pass on knowledge and experience. He should not be deified."
The principal asked, "What do you think?"
"Your heart lacks reverence and respect!"
Sun Mo shrugged.
The interviewers were shocked. You really have the guts to say that. However, this is a school with a free learning atmosphere. Students have the right to express their thoughts.
A teacher can't punish students just because they say something different.
The principal was taken aback for a moment before bursting into laughter.
(If I respected the identity of a saint, I wouldn't have come to the Darkness Continent.)
The interview ended and Sun Mo passed. He officially became a teacher of the Starry Academy.
Lv Guojing and Zhang Xiang paid the tuition fees and prepared to learn some skills. As for Li Luoran, she became an intern teacher and had to learn from her seniors for a period of time. Currently, she didn't have the qualifications to teach.
...
On Monday morning, Sun Mo's first spirit rune class was held.
The classroom that could accommodate 100 people was currently occupied by over 50 students. To a new teacher, this was considered not bad.
One must know that these students came to listen to the class because they wanted to see what a top student with full marks was like.
"He's so young!"
"Very handsome!"
"I want to give birth to his children!"
The female students chattered.
Compared to the people of the Nine Provinces, these aboriginals were much more open-minded. There was no solution to it. Their living environment was too bad, and their average lifespan was only 50 to 60 years. If they weren't cultivators, their lifespans would be even shorter. Hence, everyone had the thought of enjoying themselves.
"My spirit rune classes will be divided into two types. The first type will start from the basics. After you guys learn it, you can become a spirit rune grandmaster."
After Sun Mo stood on the rostrum, he didn't introduce himself and went straight to the main topic. "The second type is to teach some practical spirit runes. You guys don't have to understand the operating principles of these spirit runes. You just have to imitate them and draw them out."
Sun Mo's unique opening speech immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"I'll demonstrate it for you guys now!"
Sun Mo took out a piece of spirit rune paper and pasted it on the blackboard. He casually pointed at a student. "Spirit runes are a type of language that uses its unique method to express its understanding of the world. If you know the study of spirit runes, what do you want to do with it?"
"Fly!"
The student who was pointed out was called Kong Xiang. He immediately voiced out an impossible idea.
"What nonsense are you thinking?!"
A student immediately scolded him.
"Everyone, don't mock him. Spirit runes can turn the impossible into the possible!"
After Sun Mo spoke, he started to draw floating spirit runes on the spirit rune paper.
"What is he doing? From the looks of it, is he really planning to draw a flying spirit rune? "
"What nonsense is he talking about? The possibility of my grandma crawling out from her grave is higher than flying! "
"But the way he splashes ink is so cool. I really want to give birth to his child!"
The students mumbled, but gradually, they stopped talking. It was because Sun Mo, who was drawing the spirit runes, exuded a serious, professional, and focused aura.
It was like a piano master was immersed in his performance, causing the audience to involuntarily feel a sense of awe.
This was respect for art, knowledge, and a great master!
Suddenly!
Boom! Spirit qi surged intensely, gathering toward this direction and channeling into the spirit rune paper.
Sun Mo landed on the ground and picked up the spirit rune paper. He walked toward Kong Xiang. "Here, the way to activate it is to channel spirit qi into it at the same time you tear it open!"
"Oh!"
Kong Xiang followed Sun Mo's instructions. At the next second, he felt his body becoming lighter. He was like a hydrogen balloon, floating up shakily.
Sssss!
What?
F * ck!
The entire classroom was filled with all sorts of profanities and vulgarities. There were also many pairs of dumbfounded eyes that looked like they were about to pop out.
It could really fly?
(I must be blind!)
(Eh?)
Kong Xiang also had a look of astonishment on his face. Before he could react, his head knocked against the ceiling with a bang. This caused him to panic, and his limbs started to move wildly.
But even so, he didn't fall down.
"Did everyone see it? This is the effect of spirit runes! "
Sun Mo smiled.
Examples were the best way to convince others.
This type of floating spirit rune was much simpler than the imperial space spirit rune. It could temporarily reduce the weight of an object. This was something Sun Mo invented to save time and effort when workers moved large items.
"Teacher, I want to learn this!"
The students' expressions grew agitated.
"Don't be anxious, there's another type!"
Sun Mo took out a spirit rune that he had drawn in advance and walked to the window. "Everyone, come over and take a look!"
Huala!
Everyone squeezed to the window.
After Sun Mo tore open the spirit rune, a fireball the size of a coconut formed within three seconds. It then shot out and hit the field.
Boom!
After a burst of sparks, a half-meter-deep pit was left behind.
"How impressive!"
The students exclaimed in shock.
"If you guys want to learn how to speed up the formation of spirit runes, you'll just have to memorize it. There's no need for you guys to understand the principles behind it. Naturally, you won't have any future prospects."
Sun Mo introduced.
"Teacher, how long do we need to learn how to create a flying spirit rune?"
Someone asked.
"If you have talent in this area, about 20 years or so!"
Sun Mo revealed a number that caused everyone to feel despair. Hence, everyone chose to speed up the learning process. After all, everyone's poor family circumstances didn't allow them to focus on learning and not work.
Bang!
Kong Xiang fell down. He didn't cry out in pain, but his tone was firm. "Teacher, I want to learn the first type!"
Sun Mo's first lecture became popular!
On that night, he became the topic of everyone in the dormitory. After all, being able to fly was the most eye-catching achievement.
In the following week, the number of people attending Sun Mo's lectures was always filled to the brim. This caused the school to have no choice but to change his classroom to a big one that could accommodate 300 people.
Sun Mo had planned to open two classes. He would talk about the speed up in the morning and the orthodox study of spirit runes in the afternoon. However, the orthodox study really tested one's talent and perseverance.
At the start, there were still people coming to listen. But three days later, only two to three people were left.
Sun Mo sighed. He could only stop this class and change it to botany.
"Teacher Sun knows this?"
When they heard that Sun Mo had changed classes, not only the students, but many teachers also came.
"Don't feel that herbology is more important than botany!"
Sun Mo opened and prepared to correct everyone's misconception. "It's true that herbology can save lives, but for many plants, it's useless even if you understand them. However, I want to tell you guys that botany is the foundation of herbology.
"As long as you have a sufficient understanding of the species of plants, you guys will be able to summarize them and find new herbs, edible plants, etc.
"Nature is an ecosystem. Herbs don't exist alone."
Sun Mo said this because he wanted to tell everyone that there were many plants in the boundless world that had yet to be excavated. As long as they had a systematic understanding of them, they would be able to excavate them.
Before their medicinal properties were discovered, any herb would be an ordinary plant.
Outside the classroom, the headmaster listened quietly.
"This time around, we've really picked up a treasure!"
The middle-aged female great teacher had a look of joy on her face as though she had picked up a treasure from her neighbor's house. "He's really too outstanding. Just him alone is equivalent to half of our school's great teacher circle."
"Be more confident and remove the 'maybe'!"
Someone interjected.
...
A month passed. Sun Mo's new life was calm and uneventful.
Other than starting another class on ferocious beasts to help students get to know those ferocious beasts of the darkness, Sun Mo didn't do much.
"Can I be considered to have become a dark great teacher?"
Sun Mo mocked himself. From the Saint Gate's point of view, he was helping the enemy nurture a seed of hope for the enemy.
"Teacher!"
As expected, Li Luoran found Sun Mo on the rooftop of the teaching building. She knew that Sun Mo liked to daydream here recently.
However, after she got closer, she felt a little bashful. She put her hands behind her back and lowered her head, feeling embarrassed to speak.
"What's the matter?"
Sun Mo smiled. "You want to give me something?"
"Winter... winter is coming soon. This is for you!"
Li Luoran stuffed the hat she had knitted into Sun Mo's arms and turned to run away.
The hat was knitted from white rabbit fur. The craftsmanship wasn't bad, and Sun Mo's name was even embroidered on the lining.
Sun Mo smiled and put the hat on his head.
Li Luoran hid beside the metal door leading to the rooftop. When she saw this scene, she couldn't help but laugh and wave her fist excitedly.
"Teacher Sun, how is life here compared to Jinling?"
The sudden voice caused Sun Mo to raise his brows and pull out his wooden blade.
"Lu Feng!"
Sun Mo looked toward the east.
A middle-aged man leaped onto the rooftop and sat there with his legs crossed. "Yo, we meet again. But it seems like you want to beat me up?"
"I want to kill you!"
Sun Mo suppressed his anger. "Where's Baiwu?"
"You should be thanking me. If I didn't save Baiwu, she would definitely be captured by An Dingzhi."
Lu Feng explained.
Sun Mo coldly snorted.
"Sigh, people like you who don't know anything are really blessed!"
Lu Feng was envious.
Sun Mo didn't want to listen anymore. He teleported and appeared before Lu Feng. He wanted to beat this guy up first.
Lu Feng had expected this and leaped off the rooftop.
Sun Mo wanted to chase after him, but a loud and resounding bugle sound rang out in the sky above the school.
"Your disciple has returned. Aren't you going to welcome him?"
Lu Feng teased.
Sun Mo glanced in the direction of the school gate.
At this moment, many students were running out of the school. Even those who were in class had stopped.
Sun Mo gave up on finding trouble with Lu Feng and walked toward the school gate. At the same time, he stopped an old great teacher who was passing by. "What's with this bugle sound?"
"A pathfinder group has returned!"
The old great teacher explained.
The Starry Academy had never given up on exploring the Darkness Continent. Every semester, a teacher would lead a group of students who were about to graduate to explore the Darkness Continent.
Firstly, it was to accumulate experience. Secondly, it was to obtain knowledge or resources.
Sun Mo walked out of the school gate and stood on both sides.
After waiting for less than ten minutes, a team appeared.
The students on both sides immediately clenched their right fists and placed them on the left side of their chests where their hearts were. This was a salute.
The first to go over was the scout group. They were covered in dust and looked fatigued. Their clothes were stained with blood. Behind them were the injured and the dead.
No matter what kind of predicament the pathfinder group faced, they would do their best to bring back the corpses of the dead.
The atmosphere was silent and solemn. The teachers and students on both sides lowered their heads and observed a moment of silence.
After these people went over, it was the truck's turn.
This was to display the harvest of this operation.
It might be more, it might be less, or there might even be none. However, the teachers and students all applauded and praised their contributions.
After that, it was time for the pathfinder group to enter the school.
Sun Mo opened his eyes wide and stared at those team members because of Lu Feng's words. As expected, when the end of the team entered his vision, Sun Mo became agitated.
It was because there was a familiar yet unfamiliar figure there.
