The spirit qi roaming dragon wasn't a rare mysterious species of darkness. Moreover, in the history of Middle-Earth, there were people who had caught one before. Hence, its image had long since appeared in the illustrated handbook of darkness species.
The growth rate of the spirit qi roaming dragon was very fast. It belonged to the large-sized species. Even in its infancy stage, its body length was around four to five meters. When it reached adulthood, it would reach a terrifying length of tens of meters, and some could even reach over 100 meters.
As long as it had the word 'dragon' in its name, it would belong to the dragon race. Regardless of whether it lived in the sea or on land, it would be able to fly. Its entire body was covered in scales, and it had horns on its head. It emitted an aura that was unique to a superior species.
What was a superior species? It was a species that was born at the top of the food chain. They had very few natural enemies and powerful combat strength.
For example, a tyrannosaurus rex was a superior species. Basically, it was the only one who would eat you. The first reaction of any other animal would be to flee.
That loach was extremely ugly. When it was saved by Lu Zhiruo, it was covered in wounds. If it wasn't for the papaya girl being soft-hearted, it would have been stewed into soup by the three Minglan students.
Thinking of how the spirit qi roaming dragon had been trampled on and abused by the students, it didn't look like a superior species at all.
Li Ziqi felt that it was better to observe a little more. Just when she was about to discuss with Lu Zhiruo, she suddenly shivered and started to look around.
"What's wrong? It can't be that thing coming again, right? "
The little sunny egg was curious.
"En!"
Lu Zhiruo's expression was heavy. "I feel that it's very dangerous. We should leave this place immediately!"
"I don't have the final say in such matters!"
Li Ziqi sighed. She still went to look for Sun Mo and reminded him.
This time around, everyone's luck wasn't bad. About 20 minutes later, the spirit qi tide stopped.
"Thank the heavens, it's finally over!"
Du Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. If it continued, all the students would die.
"Sun Mo, it's all thanks to you this time around."
Jin Mujie sighed ruefully.
The other teachers also looked at Sun Mo, feeling extremely envious. His Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands could clear the energy channels and increase the circulation of spirit qi. At the same time, it could increase the capacity of the muscles to contain spirit qi. It could be said to be the most effective method to deal with spirit pressure allergy.
If they encountered such a situation normally, although the students wouldn't die, there would be a few who would be seriously injured. In serious cases, there might even be hidden injuries left in their bodies, affecting their future cultivation. But now, the students didn't have much of a problem.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've received a total of + 2,150 favorable impression points."
"This is my duty!"
Sun Mo didn't feel arrogant. It was only natural for a teacher to help a student.
"Let's retreat to the hot spring area first!"
Jin Mujie instructed.
The visiting group from the Myriad Daos Academy also returned. All of them were in extremely sorry states. After both parties met, Fang Wuji started to frown.
"Why do the injuries of these students seem to be much lighter than ours?"
Fang Wuan didn't understand.
During the recruitment of new students, the Myriad Daos Academy was a level higher than the Central Province Academy. Hence, the aptitudes of the students they recruited were much better compared to the Central Province Academy.
This was especially so for the elite students who had been carefully selected. They should have crushed their opponents, so why was it that their side was in such a miserable state?
"It should be because of that God Hands?"
Fang Wuji surveyed Sun Mo.
"It's possible!"
Fang Wuan nodded. His desire to kill Sun Mo grew even stronger.
"If only we could invite him to join our school!"
Fang Wuji felt very regretful. He wanted to work together with such a teacher.
As mortal enemies from the same city, the two of them should have exchanged glances and left. Or, they should have said a few harsh words. However, Fang Wuji shouted instead.
"Teacher Sun, can I trouble you to treat our students?"
Fang Wuji's tone was very sincere.
Seeing that even Fang Wuji, a famous person with the reputation of being one of the twin jade annulus of Jinling, valued Sun Mo highly, Yi Jiamin felt so jealous that he was about to explode.
"Alright, after I settle the students down, I will go over!"
Sun Mo didn't reject. The two schools were competing and were mortal enemies. However, this had nothing to do with the students. (Alright, even if it was related, he can't just watch them die, right?)
Upon hearing this reply, the teachers and students of the Central Province Academy immediately looked at Sun Mo with strange gazes.
"Teacher Sun, it isn't too good for you to do this, right?"
Zhang Qianlin criticized, "Teacher Jin, are you not going to control him?"
Jin Mujie fell silent. Although it was beneficial to the Central Province Academy if the Myriad Daos Academy's new student group was crippled, she couldn't say such words.
In the great teacher world, great teachers also had different opinions toward the cruel competition between schools. Some felt that only such a cruel battle would temper talents, while others felt that it was too bloody.
"Teacher Sun's virtue is unparalleled. We will withdraw from the Spirit Qi Canyon this time around."
Fang Wuji guaranteed.
"Elder brother!"
Fang Wuan looked at Fang Wuji in shock. (Have you forgotten what the headmaster said? He wanted to wipe out the Central Province Academy's visiting group and kill those teachers, especially Sun Mo!)
"Shut up!"
Fang Wuji berated.
If it wasn't for the fact that Headmaster Cao had done him a great favor, given Fang Wuji's temper, he wouldn't have accepted this mission. He felt that it wouldn't be too much to kill in the league tournament. But using such methods during the tempering exercise was a little too despicable.
Although in the Darkness Continent, the strong preyed on the weak and life and death depended on one's strength, killing the students and teachers of others was simply too low of a standard.
It just so happened that with this excuse, he could avoid it.
Also, this Sun Mo didn't hesitate at all when he agreed to treat his students. He was truly a competent teacher!
(Ai, I really want to be friends with him!)
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Fang Wuji + 20. Prestige connection unlocked. Neutral (20/100).
Upon hearing the notification, Sun Mo had a speechless look on his face. Didn't this square-jawed fellow want to destroy his student group?
Why did he contribute favorable impression points instead? Moreover, they didn't seem bad.
After coming to the Central Province Academy for a few months, Sun Mo had more or less understood the relationship between these famous schools. They were like the sects in fantasy novels or xianxia novels.
When students were choosing a school, they would seriously consider the school's philosophy, teaching style, etc. Once they joined a school, it meant that they had become one with the school. If there wasn't a major incident, they wouldn't transfer schools.
One could say that the relationship between a school and its students was one where they would suffer and the other where they would prosper. Hence, everyone's sense of belonging was very strong.
Sun Mo wasn't a native of the Central Province Academy, so he wasn't used to the competition between famous schools. After all, people would die at every turn. It was too terrifying.
Fang Wuji felt conflicted. The main reason was because everyone was from Jinling. Not only were they from the same country, but they were also from the same hometown. If this was a famous school from another country, there wouldn't be so many problems.
"Teacher, something's wrong. Something is coming!"
Lu Zhiruo's ears twitched. She had a look of panic on her face as she reminded Sun Mo.
Before Sun Mo could confirm the situation of the hot spring area, over ten tornadoes with a radius of three to four meters gusted over. The area they enveloped was extremely vast. Everywhere they passed by, sand and stones would fly, and birds and beasts would flee.
"Quickly spread out and find a place to block the wind!"
Jin Mujie shouted.
Under such wind strength, humans would appear very insignificant. Moreover, if they were hit by the stones swept up by the tornadoes, although they wouldn't die, they'd definitely be injured.
"Everyone, be careful. The spirit-wind overlord is attacking!"
Jin Mujie reminded.
Such tornadoes were definitely not formed naturally. Jin Mujie had planned to get the group into a formation the moment the tornadoes disappeared to deal with the sudden attack of the spirit-wind. However, these wind elementals followed behind the tornadoes and directly rushed over.
"They're here!"
Gao Ben shouted, "Prepare for battle!"
"Teacher Zhou, you lead the group. I'll go deal with that overlord!"
Jin Mujie rushed out.
The species in the Darkness Continent had different titles based on their combat strength. Overlords, as the name implied, were the masters of a region.
The strength of such overlords could vary, but they would definitely be stronger than ordinary species!
"The few of you, use the lightning protection rune!"
Sun Mo instructed, "Xuanyuan Po, Jiang Leng, Baiwu, take good care of Ziqi and the other two."
"Teacher, although I rely on my brain for a living, I have combat strength as well!"
Tantai Yutang didn't wish to be looked down upon.
Sun Mo didn't pay him any heed because densely packed spirit-winds had already appeared in the hot spring area. He did a rough count, and there were at least 500 of them.
"Why are there so many of them?"
Some students cried out, feeling their scalps turning numb.
"Don't panic, it'll be fine!"
Gu Xiuxun consoled.
Li Ziqi took out the lightning protection rune and exerted force with both hands, tearing it apart.
Crackle!
A few streaks of fragmented lightning arcs appeared and instantly increased in number, forming five lightning spheres that revolved around Li Ziqi's body, slowly revolving around her.
The others also tore apart their spirit runes. In an instant, the lightning spheres revolved around them.
Regardless of teachers or students, all of their gazes turned over. Even Fang Wuji's side was alarmed. This scene was simply too magical.
"What... what is this?"
Zhang Qianlin was dumbfounded. He even started to suspect that he was suffering from dementia. If not, why couldn't he find any spirit runes with such an effect after searching through his brain?
Naturally, there was another possibility. That was that this spirit rune was researched by Sun Mo. However, to Zhang Qianlin who was proud and arrogant and felt that he was a spirit rune genius, this was something he didn't want to think about or accept the most.
The spirit-winds were like a pack of ferocious beasts, rushing over.
The teachers at the frontlines immediately started to fight, doing their best to block them. However, there would always be some that slipped through the net. Hence, they had to rely on the students to deal with them.
"Ziqi, retreat. Let me do it!"
Xuanyuan Po rushed over. However, just when he got near the spirit-wind, his silver spear didn't move, but a lightning sphere on his body was attracted by the static electricity from the spirit-wind. It spun and smashed into it.
BOOM!
The lightning sphere exploded. Blue lightning that was like a spider web extended out from the spirit-wind's body, instantly turning it into a charred state.
Huala!
The spirit-wind disintegrated and died!
"Damn, so powerful?"
Xuanyuan Po jumped in fright. Not only him, even the students in the surroundings were stunned.
"Teacher, this won't electrocute us to death, right?"
Tantai Yutang's lips twitched a little. There was no solution to it. He felt a little panicky bringing this thing with him. If things went wrong, he might turn into charcoal.
"It won't!"
Sun Mo glanced at it. He didn't expect it to be so good.
The number of spirit-winds was simply too many. There were only a few teachers in the Central Province Academy and they basically couldn't stop them. The students were also forced into combat.
All of them were as though they were facing a great enemy. Their expressions were heavy. Looking at Sun Mo's six students, they didn't even have a chance to act. Because when the spirit-winds got within two meters of them, the lightning spheres on their bodies would immediately spin and collide with them, performing an automatic defense.
Hence, amidst the crackling sounds of electricity, all the spirit-winds that got close to them were charred black and died on the spot.
Logically speaking, since Li Ziqi's side was safe, the students should have gotten closer. However, they had nervous looks on their faces as they distanced themselves.
There was no solution to it. They were afraid of being electrocuted to death!
"Aiya, how annoying!"
Xuanyuan Po was unhappy. He wanted to fight and not be protected by these lightning spheres. Usually, he would have taken the initiative to collide with the spirit-winds. But today, he had just taken a few steps when he recalled Sun Mo's reminder and endured it.
"I have to protect Ziqi and the others!"
Xuanyuan Po turned his head and glanced back.
"Teacher Sun, what spirit runes are these?"
Zhang Qianlin couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart and asked.
"Let's fight first. If you have anything to say later!"
Sun Mo retorted. (What kind of situation is this? Why are you still concerned about spirit runes?)
"Teacher Sun, do you have more of these spirit runes? Give me a few! "
Gu Xiuxun knew that asking for spirit runes in public would damage her prestige. But for the safety of her students, she didn't mind it.
"Ziqi, give ten to Teacher Gu. As for the remaining spirit runes, give one to each student."
Sun Mo instructed. In any case, he had enough spirit runes. Before entering the Darkness Continent, he had stayed up late to draw them.
When the students heard this, they immediately shed tears of gratitude.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained a total of 3,698 favorable impression points."
These were all contributed by the students. After all, it was a matter of life and death, and the amount of favorable impression points contributed was terrifying. Moreover, in addition to the previous points, over ten of them had directly broken through to 100.
Ding!
"Congratulations, because seven students have broken through to 100, you are rewarded with five black-iron treasure chests. Please continue to work hard."
"Congratulations, you've completed the achievement of causing the prestige of five people to be ruined in one go. You are rewarded with one golden treasure chest. Please continue to work hard."
A pile of treasure chests appeared before Sun Mo's eyes, almost blinding him.
"System, can you not add to the mess?"
Sun Mo was speechless. "Also, do you not know how to count? The number of black-iron treasure chests should be seven! "
"You can't even handle such a small scene. In the future, when you go to the higher levels of the Darkness Continent, what would you do?"
The system teased, "As for the number of treasure chests, because the number 'seven' isn't aesthetically pleasing, I will deduct two!"
"F * ck your mom, this is also a reason?"
Sun Mo immediately cursed in his heart. "Also, why isn't seven aesthetically pleasing?"
"Teacher Sun, thanks. I'll remember this favor!"
At the same time Gu Xiuxun slashed a spirit-wind with her sword, she cast a deep glance at Sun Mo. There was really nothing to say about this fellow's character.
"Teacher Gu, protecting students is my responsibility. You are treating me like an outsider by saying this."
Sun Mo indicated for Gu Xiuxun to not mind it.
"These spirit runes would surely be expensive, right?"
Zhang Yaozong frowned. He was a person who didn't like to owe others favors. As he tore apart the spirit rune paper, sizzling arcs of electricity flashed. Five lightning spheres condensed and floated around him.
The lightning spheres smashed into the spirit-wind's body and directly exploded. After that, it was killed in a single strike. The attack power was extremely terrifying.
"I don't know!"
Sun Mo shrugged. Because he had drawn it himself, it wasn't difficult. The amount of spirit rune paper consumed wasn't that much. Even the flower spirit rune ink rewarded by the system wasn't much.
