No one was perfect. Secondary saints also had emotions and desires, so it was very normal for them to be unable to control themselves.
However, as they grew older and experienced more things, the thoughts of secondary saints started to transcend external things.
To put it simply, they had seen too much and enjoyed too much. There were too few things that could make them excited.
Beauties, money, status, and even kinship — these were things that were easily obtainable. Any secondary saint would abandon them like worn out shoes in the end.
Only the path of the saint was their only pursuit.
Chen Zhiming, Gao Ning, Fang Hong...
The evaluations of these few secondary saints were all very positive, especially for Du Changgong. The Holy Seal's evaluation was even better than Sun Mo's.
This person had truly dedicated his entire life to education and had no selfish motives at all!
The first round ended. Out of the 14 secondary saints, two were eliminated, and three gave up. There were only nine left.
"This elimination rate is a little high!"
Gu Xiuxun was a little afraid. Although Sun Mo had passed, the others weren't weaklings either. This could be seen from the Holy Seal's evaluation.
Although there might be some minor flaws in their bodies, there were no problems with their mental states and strength.
"This round is actually quite terrifying. To a great teacher, the most terrifying thing isn't death but the tarnishing of their reputation. It's also the social death that Sun... Secondary Saint Sun mentioned."
Jin Mujie looked at the Holy Seal that was taken away by the female clerk and drew in a cold gasp.
(My heavens!
If I were to go up and evaluate it, wouldn't my hobby of liking bones be exposed?)
She was afraid to think that she would occasionally use a thigh bone to amuse herself.
(No, I have to get rid of this bad habit.)
The countenances of the other spectating great teachers weren't too good either. After all, who didn't have a little secret in this day and age?
Xu Chunbo had long since expected this number of people to pass. Hence, he didn't make a fuss about it. He calmly watched as the Holy Seal was kept and then stood up.
"Everyone has seen the results of the first round. As for the evaluation, the Holy Seal has already given it. I believe that everyone has a scale in their hearts and has a general understanding of the various secondary saints!"
Xu Chunbo said loudly, "The battle techniques continue. There's no danger to your life in the first round. The worst outcome is that you won't be able to become a great teacher. However, the second round is dangerous. Once you fail, you'll be seriously injured at best, and you'll die at worst!"
"Men, bring in the Holy Scripture!"
Soon, four female clerks carried over an offering table with a jade shelf on it. On the shelf, there was an ancient book with a golden cover.
Everyone immediately craned their necks to take a closer look, and some even leaned forward.
This holy scripture was one of the Holy Gate's three great holy artifacts. It was said that reading it could cleanse one's soul, strengthen one's divine sense, and ultimately reach a profound realm where one's soul wouldn't dissipate even after death.
"Everyone knows that a Saint must have a Saint Heart, but a Saint Heart isn't necessarily unique to a Saint. A great teacher who possesses the breadth of mind of a Saint can also develop a Saint Heart. One of the effects of this Holy Scripture is that it can help a great teacher develop a Saint Heart.
Xu Chunbo explained.
Hua!
Everyone exclaimed.
Not only did the Sacred Heart sound impressive, but its effects were also extremely powerful. Those who possessed the Sacred Heart would be immune to all diseases, untainted by evil, and immune to any mental attacks.
Moreover, the Saint Heart could increase the effects of a great teacher halo by a hundred times. For example, if two great teachers were to fight and both of them used Battle of Tongues and Misleading Students, the great teacher with the Saint Heart would be immune to the negative effects of the halo, forming a terrifying mental suppression.
"Secondary saints, come and look at this book. Everyone has one day's time!"
Xu Chunbo smiled and looked at Sun Mo. "Or do you want to go first?"
"Sure!"
Sun Mo shrugged.
Everyone exchanged mutual glances, feeling very puzzled. Ji Xiangdong couldn't help but ask, "Is this round a test to see if one can condense a Saint Heart?"
"Do you think the Saint Heart is like the blooming of a fruit tree, that it will appear in autumn?"
Xu Chunbo rolled his eyes.
"Since none of us can condense a Saint Heart, how can we compare who is better?"
Someone interjected.
"The power of a holy artifact isn't something you guys can understand. Just wait and see the results!"
Xu Chunbo warned, "For the sake of fairness, we need witnesses. So, you guys can choose not to leave, but you are forbidden from speaking. Whoever disturbs the participants will be expelled!"
After Xu Chunbo spoke, he sat down.
The others did the same.
Sun Mo walked to the offering table. He couldn't be bothered to use Divine Sight to observe the holy scripture. He directly picked it up and after admiring the cover, he flipped it open.
"Mn? There are no words? "
Sun Mo started. There wasn't a single word on the page. He couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Xu Chunbo.
For this round, it shouldn't be an ordinary book to test everyone's comprehension, right?
It was like the emperor's new clothes. If he were to brag, he might fail!
(Wrong!)
Sun Mo soon rejected this conjecture. Everyone was a secondary saint, and after the first round, their merits had passed the test. Hence, they definitely wouldn't make things up and intentionally exaggerate. This meant that there were indeed profoundness in this sacred canon.
Sun Mo casually flipped a few pages and felt that this posture was a little tiring. He glanced at the surroundings and discovered that there were too many people. There was no space left. Hence, he decided to lean against the offering table and sit down.
"..."
The group of great teachers who were paying attention to Sun Mo were dumbfounded.
(This is a holy artifact. Can you show some respect?)
(If it's me, I'll definitely bathe and burn some incense before reading it.)
When Xu Chunbo saw this scene, he nodded lightly. He admired Sun Mo more and more.
Sun Mo recalled his experience of reading books in the library during his university days. At that time, many people went there to meet girls by chance. Sun Mo, on the other hand, spent his time reading books.
He would stay there for an entire day and never felt bored!
"Haha, so silly!"
Sun Mo mocked himself. However, he didn't feel upset or regretful. What was a happy life? It was fine as long as he felt happy when he thought of that period of time.
Books really brought Sun Mo a lot of happiness.
Just when Sun Mo was distracted and flipping through the book, many scenes actually appeared on the pages. They were Sun Mo's past experiences.
The scenes were moving, and the Sun Mo in them was vivid and lifelike.
"Mn?"
Sun Mo was startled. As expected, it was a holy hall. How marvelous. After that, he immersed himself in it.
Looking at his past from the perspective of a bystander, there was a different flavor to it.
In high school, there was a youth who played football and studied. Although it was tough, it was fulfilling!
After that, he managed to get into university!
He also yearned to get a favorable impression from his senior because he liked older girls. But very soon, he was immersed in internet cafes and novels.
During the end-of-year examinations, he was often on the verge of failing. Luckily, he repented in time and used good time management to balance his life and studies.
After that, he graduated, looked for a job, and became a screw in the big machine that was society.
"Haha, the salary is so low!"
Sun Mo saw how he was short of money when he wanted to buy a laptop. However, he still bought it to save money. If not, where could he go to watch movies and play games?
...
"What do you think?"
Just when Gu Xiuxun asked, Xu Chunbo's sharp gaze turned over, scaring her so much that she shrank her neck and hid behind An Xinhui.
The sun was setting, and it was dusk!
Sun Mo had been sitting there for a long time. The expression on his face kept on changing. There was crying and disappointment. Luckily, he was smiling most of the time.
An Xinhui suddenly felt a little self-reproachful and regretful. It was because there wasn't a shadow of her in Sun Mo's happiness!
The two of them didn't spend much time together.
"After I return, I will beg grandpa to marry Sun Mo!"
An Xinhui made up her mind.
Mei Ziyu propped her cheeks with her hands and looked at Sun Mo in a daze. She felt that even if she looked at him like this for an entire lifetime, it wouldn't be enough. "I really want to become a confidante in his life, to accompany him down this path and not be a passerby!"
Gu Xiuxun scratched her ears and cheeks, feeling extremely worried. She was deeply afraid that something would happen to Sun Mo.
Lu Zhiruo sat on the ground with her legs bent and her hands hugging her knees. Her gaze didn't leave Sun Mo from the start to the end. She didn't think of anything, but it seemed that she was thinking of many things.
"Teacher, you won't leave me, right?"
Lu Zhiruo, who had already lost her father, didn't wish to lose Sun Mo as well.
Everyone was a high-star great teacher and it wouldn't be a problem even if they didn't sleep for ten days to half a month. Just when everyone had gotten used to the novelty and was preparing to meditate to waste time, a change suddenly appeared on Sun Mo's side.
A platinum-colored light soared into the sky and enveloped him!
"What?"
Everyone was jolted awake and turned to look at Zhang Xuan.
The light was pure and holy. Then, like a drizzle, it sprinkled down.
When these rays of light landed on the great teachers, they felt as if they had soaked in a hot bath, washing away the filth on their bodies. Their bodies felt lighter by several tens of kilograms.
Immediately, dozens of people were enlightened.
Whoosh!
Xu Chunbo abruptly stood up and looked at Sun Mo in astonishment.
This …
Did he condense a Saint Heart?
My god, aren't you too much of a genius?
Xu Chunbo subconsciously looked outside. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that only half a day had passed!
Second Sage Zhou's face was as gloomy as water, and he suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness!
How could he fight against such a genius?
"We can't afford to offend them! We can't afford to offend them! "
Chen Zhimin shook his head and sighed.
"The new generation excels the old. I'm thinking of forfeiting!"
Du Changgong sighed with emotion.
The countenances of the other secondary saints were also unsightly. They had been famous for a long time and naturally knew the prowess of the sacred hall. Sun Mo had condensed a sacred heart so quickly. How were the others supposed to compete?
The light dissipated and Sun Mo stood up!
Huala!
Everyone stood up with respect on their faces. They could sense that Sun Mo's disposition had changed compared to this morning.
"Sun … Sun Yasheng, you condensed a Saint Heart?"
Gu Xiuxun asked in shock.
"I don't know if it's true or not. I just feel that my heart is beating very fast and very hot."
Sun Mo explained.
"Isn't that simple? Wouldn't you know once you release a great teacher halo?"
Chen Zhiming suggested.
Pak!
Sun Mo snapped his fingers and the expressions of everyone in the hall immediately froze. They sank into a daze as if they had been hypnotized.
"Teacher, your Unrealized Dream can actually affect the Second Sage?"
Lu Zhiruo exclaimed in admiration.
Wei Ziyou and Xu Chunbo were saints and naturally wouldn't be affected by this halo. They had wanted to say this, but when they heard Lu Zhiruo saying it, they were puzzled.
(Why didn't you sink into Unrealized Dream?
(Your father is a saint, but you aren't, right?)
