There were over 30 secondary saints present, but only 13 of them raised their hands.
One had to know that as long as one was human, even if one was unwilling to admit it, there would still be class divisions. For example, if both were rich, a multimillionaire and a billionaire would definitely not be on the same level.
It was the same for these secondary saints.
Right now, those who raised their hands were the leaders of their respective powers. They were major characters who could shake the great teacher world with just a stomp of their feet.
Some of the other secondary saints didn't have the qualifications, while others were engrossed in research and couldn't be bothered to get involved in such matters. They had come this time around to help their good friends.
Of course, 13 people vying for the position of sect master was already a lot. After all, it was not easy to see a contest between secondary sages.
"Alright, the number of people has been decided. Let's not delay any longer and start the competition tomorrow!"
Xu Chunbo announced.
Even though time was tight, no one had any objections. It was because these high-ranking great teachers were all major characters of a region and were very busy.
"Since the matter has been settled, let's disperse!"
Wei Ziyou stood up.
His body had been in a terrible condition recently. If it wasn't for the importance of the position of Sect Master, he wouldn't have come at all.
"Hmph!"
Chen Zhiming flicked his sleeves and was the first to leave. However, when he reached the door, he halted his steps because Sun Mo was walking in while being escorted by a group of beauties.
"Haha, Teacher Sun, it has been several years since we last met. You have also become more carefree and unrestrained!"
Chen Zhiming teased.
When the others saw the intelligent An Xinhui, the gentle and charming Mei Ziyu, and the big and fair Jin Mujie, they were already very envious of Sun Mo's affinity with beauties.
Moreover, Murong Mingyue and Gu Xiuxun were also first-rate beauties.
"Hello!"
Sun Mo smiled and didn't address the other party respectfully. It wasn't that he was disrespectful, but rather, he really didn't know what this person's name was.
Seeing this, Chen Zhiming's expression changed slightly, feeling that he was being looked down upon.
"Secondary Sage Chen, please don't blame him. My fiancé is usually engrossed in educating people and doesn't have much research on the major characters of the great teacher world."
An Xinhui explained and quickly reminded Sun Mo, "This is Chen Yasheng from the Westshore Military School. He's proficient in the dao of battle formations."
"You flatter me!"
Although Chen Zhiming was unhappy, he thought about it carefully and felt that the other party didn't mean to treat him badly.
Despite his young age, Sun Mo had broken all sorts of records consecutively and became an 8-star great teacher. Such a person would surely put all his energy and time into learning. It was true that he wouldn't understand who was a secondary saint or a saint.
Because it was meaningless and unnecessary.
Many great teachers were very familiar with the major characters of the great teacher world. Other than their curiosity for gossip, they also hoped to meet them one day and seek guidance from them. In fact, they might even be able to cozy up to them.
But Sun Mo?
She was already his backer.
"Sigh, young and frivolous!"
When Chen Zhiming thought of this, a smile appeared on his face again.
There was no helping it. He didn't want to offend this hegemon who possessed the God Hands and many unique spirit runes.
Fortunately, I'm still a 9-Star Quasi-Sage. Otherwise, I wouldn't have any sense of superiority when facing him.
Chen Zhiming looked at Sun Mo's overly young face and felt a hint of jealousy in his heart.
"Yasheng Chen!"
Sun Mo clasped his hands.
Upon seeing this sight, many master teachers turned their gazes over.
Wasn't Sun Mo's attitude too arrogant?
Even if he didn't bow, he should at least lower his head slightly, right?
After all, the person standing in front of you was a secondary saint, a major character who could hear holy words. There were only a few tens of them in the entire Nine Provinces.
A commotion broke out in the hall, and it was all directed at Sun Mo's attitude.
Chen Zhiming's countenance turned unsightly again.
Right now, it was hard for him to back down.
He didn't want to lose his temper and ignore Sun Mo. After all, he coveted those inventions of Sun Mo's. But if he didn't lose his temper, wouldn't he, a secondary saint, want his face when so many people were looking at him?
(Sun Mo, you're too arrogant!)
Chen Zhiming was depressed and was thinking of how to find a way out of this when Secondary Saint Zhou spoke up.
"Yasheng Chen, how can you convince the masses if you become the sect leader in this manner?"
Everyone could hear the sarcasm in his words.
"Sun... Mn?"
That henchman Zhao Gang had wanted to take this opportunity to scold Sun Mo, but he suddenly discovered that he was unable to say Sun Mo's name. What the hell was this?
"Teacher Sun, how have you been recently?"
Wei Ziyou chuckled and greeted.
"Headmaster!"
Sun Mo hurriedly greeted. When he was in Jixia Learning Palace, this headmaster had taken good care of him.
"Headmaster!"
Mei Ziyu also greeted sweetly.
"Sun Mo, you've cheated away all the treasures of our clan. Now that you're back, shouldn't you be getting married?"
Wei Ziyou changed the way he addressed Mei Ziyu. This wasn't a rejection but a display of closeness.
He treated Mei Ziyu as his granddaughter, so he hoped that Sun Mo wouldn't drag things out.
"Grandpa!"
An Xinhui walked to An Xiaoxi's side and bowed to greet him.
An Xiaoxi ignored An Xinhui and kept staring at Sun Mo. His eyes were gradually filled with astonishment and bewilderment.
Sun Mo felt a little awkward. This topic wasn't easy to answer.
He naturally didn't wish to let Mei Ziyu down, but his fiancée and her grandfather were also here. Moreover, Gu Xiuxun's gaze was also filled with grief...
(Hehe!)
Jin Mujie was joyful. (How many boats do you want to ride?
Without the Sea King's ability, you want to raise so many mermaids. You must have suffered a loss, right?)
"Everyone, if you guys want to reminisce about the past, should we return to the hotel?"
Secondary Saint Zhou walked over. "Can you guys not block the entrance?"
Sun Mo assessed Second Saint Zhou and didn't greet him. Instead, he asked Wei Ziyou, "Saint, what's the outcome regarding the position of the sect leader?"
"No matter what the result is, it has nothing to do with you!"
Second Sage Zhou retorted.
When he saw that Sun Mo didn't greet him, he was so angry that his teeth hurt. Actually, he had the qualifications to teach Sun Mo a lesson because he was a secondary saint.
However, given Second Sage Zhou's breadth of mind, he didn't want to use his status to suppress others in front of everyone.
"How do you know it has nothing to do with me?"
Sun Mo rebutted sarcastically.
"Hehe!"
Zhou Yasheng was joyful, thinking that Sun Mo was extending his head over to let him hammer it. He would feel bad if he didn't accept it. Therefore, he swung his right sleeve and placed it behind his back, looking down at Sun Mo from a higher position.
"Sun Mo, remember this. Only secondary saints and saints are qualified to vie for the position of the Saint Gate's sect leader!"
While Secondary Saint Zhou was lecturing Sun Mo, Zhao Gang, who was in the crowd, grew anxious. He tried to call out Sun Mo's name again but failed.
This could only mean one thing — he was a Quasi-saint!
My god, I've seen a ghost, how old is he!
Speaking of which, he had to quickly stop his boss, or else he would make a fool of himself.
"Second Sage, Sun … Sun, he …"
Zhao Gang didn't wish to call Sun Mo secondary saint, but he couldn't call out his name. Hence, he stuttered. Before he could finish speaking, secondary saint Zhou had already finished retorting.
Oh no!
Zhao Gang facepalmed!
"Is secondary sage very amazing?"
Sun Mo mocked, "Didn't you just eat a few more years of rice than me? Oh, no, I was wrong. It's hundreds of years old rice. "
"You …"
Second Sage Zhou was furious.
Hiss!
Upon hearing Sun Mo's words, everyone was shocked.
Aren't you a little too full of yourself?
"Sun Mo, please mind your words!"
Gao Ning berated, "It's true that you're very powerful and full of glory, but you shouldn't look down on a secondary saint. Don't look down on your young age. If you're unlucky, you might not be able to advance to a secondary saint until you die of old age!"
"That's right. Advancing to become a Second Saint requires great wisdom, great willpower, and great courage!"
The old woman, Fang Hong, also interrupted.
To secondary saints, this was the proudest thing in their lives. They definitely wouldn't allow others to profane this title.
"Teacher Sun, we've decided to decide the sect leader through a great teacher competition!"
The old man who spoke was called Du Changgong.
He was born poor, and his father was a woodcutter. The greatest hope he had for his son was for him to enter a landlord's family and work as a laborer, living a stable and stable life. He didn't expect his son to become a secondary saint and bring honor to his ancestors.
"If Teacher Sun doesn't mind, why don't we have a cup of tea together?"
Du Changgong was giving Sun Mo a way out of this embarrassing situation.
He was the kind of person who didn't care about titles and titles. The reason why he was standing here and competing for the position of the sect leader wasn't for himself but for the vast number of great teachers who came from lower-class backgrounds.
That's right, the people he represented were opposing those great teacher clans.
"How about another day?"
Sun Mo sensed Du Changgong's goodwill and nodded at him. After that, he looked at the others. "A great teacher competition? Count me in then? "
Everyone was first stunned, but then they burst out laughing.
This Sun Mo was really boundlessly arrogant!
"Sun Mo, are you pretending to be stupid or do you really not understand? To participate in the great teacher competition, one must at least have the title of secondary saint. Is the lock on your door broken? I have a keysmith with pretty good skills here. Are you worthy? "
Secondary Saint Zhou retorted.
There was no problem for secondary saints to address each other by name.
Pffft!
Some people started laughing. It wasn't easy to see Sun Mo suffering a setback. This matter could be boasted about for a few years.
"Of course, I can understand this logic. But as for you, is there something wrong with your brain? If I wasn't a secondary saint, I wouldn't have requested to be included!"
Sun Mo coldly laughed.
"What? Sun... Sun... Aiya, f * ck, I can't pronounce his name! "
"F * ck, he really is a secondary saint!"
"Isn't this too unbelievable? How many years has it been since he became an 8-star great teacher? "
Everyone was completely dumbfounded. Their large eyes that were staring at Sun Mo were like inflated toads, protruding even more furiously.
This was especially so for those who mocked Sun Mo. Right now, they had awkward looks on their faces.
"Secondary saint?"
Gao Ning assessed Sun Mo cautiously.
Fang Hong's expression turned heavy. As for Chen Zhiming, he was first stunned before he heaved a sigh of relief.
Luckily! Luckily!
If I had retorted to Sun Mo earlier, I'd be the one being mocked now.
As for suspecting Sun Mo?
Please, what kind of situation is this?
If Sun Mo dared to make such a joke, then he'd just have to wait for his reputation to be swept away!
Sun Mo shrugged and deactivated his Obscurity.
A strange fragrance started to permeate the hall. Everyone was a high-star great teacher, so they naturally weren't unfamiliar with this smell.
Therefore, the hall sank into an awkward silence.
Sun Mo was too impressive, so much so that people didn't know how to reply to him.
Even if they wanted to praise him, they didn't seem to be able to find suitable words.
Secondary Saint Zhou's countenance was so gloomy that it was as if ink could be squeezed out. "Why didn't you say so earlier that you're a secondary saint? Were you waiting to see us make a fool of ourselves? "
"Could it be that your title of secondary saint is used to disturb people?"
Sun Mo retaliated.
"Eh!"
Secondary Saint Zhou was rendered speechless. Sun Mo's reason was too righteous.
"Secondary Saint Zhou, I'll consult you again. Do I have the qualifications to sign up?"
Sun Mo sneered.
"Sun Mo, you're thinking too highly of yourself. Do you know why only 13 people signed up despite there being so many secondary saints here?"
Since they had already fallen out, Secondary Saint Zhou wouldn't stand on ceremony either.
"Isn't it because I need some supporters to form my own power? I understand!"
Sun Mo had been in the workplace before and knew that a lone person wouldn't be able to conquer the world. Therefore, he looked around. "Great teachers, everyone already knows my name. There's no need for me to introduce myself. I'll only say one thing here. Today, everyone has given me a gust of spring wind. In the future, I'll definitely return it!"
Sssss!
Hearing Sun Mo's words, many great teachers were moved.
In such a situation, every word Sun Mo said was a promise. Once he couldn't fulfill it, his reputation and credibility would be ruined.
Many people were tempted by the idea.
They understood that Sun Mo said this because he wanted people to support him. It was because without power, one wouldn't have the qualifications to fight for the position of the sect leader.
There seemed to be no threshold for the qualifications to compete with great teachers, but in reality, there was.
At the very least, Secondary Saint Shi and Secondary Saint Hu from the Central Province Academy weren't qualified.
Right now, it was time to pick a side.
Although no one said anything, many great teachers who were on good terms with each other were communicating with their gazes.
This was an opportunity and also a risk!
If they supported Sun Mo now, they would definitely offend Secondary Saint Zhou and the other ten or so secondary saints. However, they wouldn't dare to take it lying down if they missed this opportunity.
If Sun Mo was still an 8-star great teacher, then everyone wouldn't be able to make a decision. After all, it was too difficult to ascend to a secondary saint. But now, he was already a secondary saint. Even if he couldn't ascend to a saint in the future, the capital he had accumulated was enough to last him his entire life.
"Sun Mo really has too many good things in his hands!"
Some great teachers in the crowd had this thought and raised their hands.
"I feel that Secondary Saint Sun must have a name!"
"That's right. Secondary Saint Sun is so young now, and his future achievements are limitless!"
"There's no need for the future. No one can reach him now!"
No one hesitated or waited for others to express their stance. They directly answered.
If they wanted to do it, they would be the first to surrender.
"Thank you, everyone!"
Sun Mo clasped his hands.
The expressions of the secondary saints became very solemn. This was especially so for Secondary Saint Zhou. It had only been a minute, but one-fifth of the people in the hall had raised their hands.
"Grandpa!"
An Xinhui glanced at An Xiaoxi. He was calm and had no intention of raising his hand at all.
However, as the grandfather of Sun Mo's fiancée, whether he raised his hand or not, it was all because of Sun Mo.
"The general trend is irreversible!"
Zhao Gang sighed and sneakily raised his hand.
Secondary Saint Zhou was dumbfounded. (Even my most loyal henchman is going to rebel?)
Zhao Gang had a mournful look on his face.
(What can I do?)
(I'm also very helpless!)
(Sun Mo is only 40 years old. How old are you? After you die, who will still be able to protect me?)
(No, look at this situation. Sun Mo's influence isn't much weaker than yours!)
"The current situation is like this. I announce that Secondary Saint Sun has the qualifications to participate in the great teachers face-off!"
Xu Chunbo had long since guessed this ending.
Great teachers were most proficient in teaching and educating people. Sun Mo's future was definitely the brightest in the Nine Provinces.
Unless he died now!
