At night in the Darkness Continent, after the sky darkened, the aurora was like ribbons that filled the starry sky, becoming even more beautiful and colorful.
They were so beautiful that they were intoxicating, like a dream or fantasy!
The bonfire flickered.
Lu Zhiruo squatted at the side and looked at the white porridge in the small iron pot that was bubbling. Although it was already cooked, it had to be cooked to a certain degree for the taste of the porridge to be better.
The food for her teacher to drink naturally had to be the best.
Sun Mo walked over and sat next to the papaya girl. He lifted his hand and patted her head.
"Open the diamond treasure chest!"
The treasure chest opened, emitting a seven-colored glow. When it dissipated, a skill book was left behind.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained a part of the Darkness Continent's Great Plant Encyclopedia. There's a total of 1,000 types of plants recorded in it."
"Cool!"
Sun Mo whistled and was overjoyed. In addition to this encyclopedia, he had a total of 1,200 types of plants from the Darkness Continent. It was enough for him to open a new class.
Opening a new class and being able to teach students meant that he had another batch of 'leeks' and could steadily produce favorable impression points.
The skill book given by the system was simply too perfect. Sun Mo believed that by relying on the encyclopedia, he would definitely be able to convince many students.
Naturally, the greatest value of this encyclopedia was that when he led his new student group on an adventure in the Darkness Continent, he would be able to differentiate which plants were poisonous and had medicinal value...
Sun Mo was a little surprised to receive such a good reward on his first try. He was also worried that he would exhaust too much luck and wouldn't dare to open the mysterious treasure chest anymore.
It wasn't that Sun Mo was too pretentious. It was just that as an extremely unlucky person, he could only rely on metaphysics to open chests. Otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to get a consolation prize.
"Teacher, the porridge is ready!"
The papaya girl scooped a bowl and passed it to Sun Mo with both hands.
"Mn!"
Sun Mo took it and drank it while observing the campsite.
The Spiritwind Canyon was the best training ground for cultivators who had just entered the Darkness Continent. Hence, many people would usually come here.
At this moment, other than the Central Province Academy and the new student group from the Myriad Daos Academy, there were two other groups at the entrance. However, their campsites were very far away from each other, and they had no intention of interacting with each other.
The temporary campsite of the Central Province Academy's new student group was located at the bottom of a slope. Sun Mo, Gu Xiuxun, Gao Ben, and Zhang Lan only needed to lead their own students. There was no need to care about the others. As for the other students, they were randomly divided into a few small groups and led by the teachers.
By doing this, it was convenient for teachers like Sun Mo to conduct private lessons for their personal students. At the same time, it was also to prevent others from eavesdropping.
One couldn't help but say that the system of the Central Province Academy was very humane.
"Ziqi, take care of the team. I'll go patrol!"
After a simple dinner, Sun Mo found an excuse to leave. When he was very far away from the campsite and ascertained that he wouldn't be seen by others, Sun Mo took out the 'Great Plant Encyclopedia' that was thicker than a dictionary and shattered it with a single slap.
Pa!
The encyclopedia shattered into a large ball of green light. Under the night sky, it was as bright as a firefly. After that, it shot into the center of Sun Mo's brows.
Many plants of darkness appeared and disappeared in Sun Mo's mind.
Sun Mo immediately focused his attention and focused on memorizing them. However, because there were too many plants, Sun Mo spent a total of two hours before he managed to memorize all of them.
Ding!
"Congratulations, the proficiency of the 300 types of darkness plants you've grasped has been raised to the grandmaster-grade. The 700 types of darkness plants have been raised to the expert-grade!"
As the system notification rang out, Sun Mo's vision was filled with the names of the plants. They were divided into two columns, displaying the different proficiency levels.
Sun Mo bitterly smiled. The more he memorized, the more he felt that he didn't have enough energy. The effect of memorizing was also greatly reduced. It seemed that he wasn't a genius after all.
If Li Ziqi was the one to memorize them, she'd probably be able to recite them fluently after seeing them twice.
Sun Mo returned to the campsite and discovered that although the students had rushed for an entire day and were very tired, no one was resting. They were either meditating or reading books with the help of candlelight.
If anyone had questions, they could consult Jin Mujie.
"Teacher, you're back?"
Lu Zhiruo immediately ran over. "I brought some pastries. Do you want to eat them?"
"I'm not eating them."
Sun Mo flicked his finger and rapped the papaya girl's forehead. "Focus on meditation, don't let your mind wander!"
"Awu!"
Lu Zhiruo felt a little disappointed. Those pastries were specially made by her for this trip.
"I've eaten my fill for dinner. I'll leave them for tomorrow."
Looking at the papaya girl's expression, Sun Mo sighed and patted her head. "If you don't want to meditate, go and sleep. Don't wait for me in the future."
"Oh!"
Lu Zhiruo nodded. After that, she sat down and started to meditate. However, she felt a little absent-minded. (Does Teacher hate me? If not, why doesn't he eat pastries?)
The papaya girl's imagination ran wild and she would occasionally sneak a glance at Sun Mo.
Sun Mo felt his scalp turning numb from being stared at. He could only compromise. "Where are the pastries?"
Upon hearing this, the papaya girl was like a rabbit that had been shot by an arrow. She immediately bounced up from the ground and ran toward the tent to rummage through her luggage.
"How big!"
Li Ziqi, who was beside the bonfire, saw Lu Zhiruo's two big papayas swaying intensely from running. She was so envious that she wanted to crush them.
"How is it? How is it? "
Seeing Sun Mo eating the pastries, Lu Zhiruo blinked her big eyes and stared at Sun Mo. She felt trepidation in her heart, as though she was waiting for her college entrance exam results.
"It's very delicious!"
Sun Mo nodded.
"Hehe!"
Lu Zhiruo smiled. The orange-red light from the fire shone on her face, and it was filled with joy. This time around, she was finally satisfied. She quietly sat down and entered a meditative state.
"Open the treasure chest!"
Sun Mo recalled the sweetness on the tip of his tongue and instructed the system.
The mysterious treasure chest that was shrouded in a dense purple aura opened in response. A skill book that was flashing with golden light appeared before Sun Mo's eyes.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained the great teacher halo, Encyclopedic Knowledge. Proficiency level: elementary-grade."
"Note: When you add this halo to your target, their learning efficiency will be greatly increased."
"..."
Sun Mo was so excited that he almost cursed out loud. The papaya girl was as expected of the lucky mascot for opening treasure chests. After obtaining the 1,000 types of plants encyclopedia, she was still able to open a great teacher halo. Her luck was truly unparalleled!
Of course, compared to Teacher for a Day, Father for Life, which was a rare halo that could only be comprehended by the elderly, Encyclopedic Knowledge was much more common. Moreover, its versatility was extremely high as well.
Just like Ignorant and Incompetent and Misleading Students, Sun Mo rarely had the chance to use them. This was especially so for Misleading Students. He hadn't used it yet, but Encyclopedic Knowledge was amazing. He could give it to his students whenever he wanted.
Encyclopedic Knowledge, as the name suggested, was to maintain one's learning state at its peak, achieving the effect of getting twice the results with half the effort.
"You guys continue eating, I'll go and rest for a while!"
Sun Mo entered the tent and learned the skill book at the first instant.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've grasped Encyclopedic Knowledge, elementary-grade. After activating it, the effect can last for half an hour."
Enjoying the refreshing feeling in his mind, Sun Mo felt that this was great. If he had such an amazing halo back when he was in high school, he would have been able to get into Peking University no matter what!
The only blemish was that the duration was too short. Although half an hour was enough for many men to masturbate until they couldn't get up again, it wasn't enough for learning.
Ding!
"Congratulations, due to your outstanding guidance, your personal disciple has comprehended the 'Self-Taught Knowledge' and has become a reserve teacher. You are hereby awarded 1x great teacher emblem."
"New mission issued. Please help your student become a great teacher within three years. After you succeed, you will be given generous rewards!"
Sun Mo glanced at the great teacher emblem that he didn't know what use it had and kept it. After that, he started to frown. If Li Ziqi wanted to be a teacher, it wouldn't be a problem for her to have sufficient knowledge. However, this halo was something that could only be obtained through sudden comprehension.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've grasped 1,000 types of plants from the Darkness Continent and obtained the title of Herbal Specialist."
"Eh? There's even a title? "
Sun Mo was joyful and waited for the system to give him a reward. However, after waiting for five minutes, the system fell silent. "Oi, why aren't you saying anything?"
"Say what?"
The system didn't understand.
"Where's my reward?"
Sun Mo asked.
"What reward?"
The system didn't understand.
"The reward for obtaining the title of Herbal Specialist? Even if it's the worst lucky treasure chest, there should still be one, right?"
Sun Mo's request wasn't high.
"Sorry, I don't have one!"
The system's reply exuded an air of poverty.
"Then what's the use of this title?"
Sun Mo frowned so hard that he could suffocate a crab.
"It's useless. It sounds nice and looks fun."
After the system spoke, it fell silent again, leaving Sun Mo sitting in the tent in a daze. (This works too?) As expected, in this world, all sorts of titles were bestowed. But when it came to specific rewards, you would be told to scram as far away as possible.
...
In a temporary campsite in the Spiritwind Canyon, Chen Anfu couldn't sleep at night. His countenance was heavy and his eyes were so dark that he looked like a panda that was about to die.
"Why haven't we found it yet?"
His personal disciple had left for ten days, but there was still no news from him. This was truly making him anxious.
However, that mysterious species of darkness wasn't too easy to capture. If not, it wouldn't be ranked tenth on the mysterious species list.
"Teacher, another five student groups have arrived at the Spiritwind Canyon today. The number of people there is over 300."
A female disciple came to report. She was in charge of her teacher's daily life, as well as to gather information.
Chen Anfu's heart tightened and he couldn't help but ask, "Are there any student groups from the Nine Greats?"
"No!"
The female disciple replied.
"Oh!"
Chen Anfu heaved a sigh of relief. He definitely didn't care about those students, but the teachers from the Nine Greats all had some capabilities. He was naturally fearful of them.
He had been tracking that mysterious species of darkness for a total of three years. After wasting so much time, it wouldn't be worth it if everything went to waste.
"You should go and search for that mysterious species of darkness as well."
Chen Anfu instructed.
"But who is going to take care of Teacher's daily life?"
The female disciple was worried. As a 4-star great teacher, her teacher didn't even have a servant by his side. This was too shabby. If outsiders were to see this, they would surely be mocked.
"Things have already come to this. It doesn't matter even if I starve for a few days."
Chen Anfu waved his hand, getting the female disciple to quickly go. As long as he found that mysterious species of darkness, he would be able to replan his future life. At that time, the headmasters of the Nine Greats would personally come and offer a sky-high price to headhunt him to their schools. He might even be able to get a vice-headmaster position.
