"They are people from Haizhou!"
An Xinhui reminded in a low voice.
These people were wearing blue-colored teacher robes. At the bottom of the robes, there were waves. At the chest area, there was a school emblem with three waves on it.
This was the representative group from Wei Country's Haizhou Academy.
"Eh? Isn't this Headmaster An Xinhui? Sorry for not recognizing you! "
The young man was originally fawning over the girl beside him. When he saw An Xinhui, his eyes immediately brightened and he quickly walked over.
"You are?"
An Xinhui naturally didn't know this fellow.
"I'm Wei Lu, the grandson of Haizhou's headmaster. I just joined this year and will be the teacher representative to lead the new student group in the competition!"
Wei Lu spoke very quickly. His words were filled with pride.
"Pu!"
Li Ziqi wanted to laugh. (You are a teacher, so how can you say that you are the grandson of so-and-so when you are introducing yourself?
What do you treat the occupation of a teacher as?)
Clearly, in Wei Lu's heart, the value of a teacher wasn't as high as his identity as the grandson of Haizhou's headmaster.
Sun Mo's lips twitched. There was no technical content in this act. However, from the arrogant manner of this fellow, it was clear that he was spoiled by his family to the point of being lawless.
Wei Country was located in the west of Jing Province. It was a small country with a population of a few million. However, because it had an abundance of spirit stone mines, the citizens were very wealthy.
Since the citizens didn't have to worry about food and clothing, they would naturally put their energy into the education of the next generation. One could say that the popularity of culture was very high.
Haizhou Academy was the national school of Wei Country and was also established by the royal family. Every year, they would invest a vast amount of money into it. However, due to the problem of the population, the quality of the students wasn't good enough. Hence, after so many years, Haizhou Academy had been hovering between the'D 'grade and' C 'grade.
Haizhou's overall strength could be ranked in the top three among the 108 schools in the'D 'grade league tournament. They could often rise to the' C 'grade, but they wouldn't be able to sit there stably. After one to two years, they would be kicked down.
There was no solution to it. There were 72 famous schools in the 'C' grade. The pressure from the competition wasn't ordinary.
To put it bluntly, Haizhou Academy had money, but their foundation wasn't enough. The great teachers they headhunted weren't the best because the best great teachers wouldn't lack money.
Of course, there was another point. Even if Weiguo had money, they couldn't invest it into the school limitlessly. They still had to hand over a portion to the Saint Gate and the neighboring Jin Country.
If it wasn't for the Saint Gate's mediation, the Wei Country, which had a mine, would have long been annexed by the Great Jin Country.
In reality, Wei Lu didn't feel that he was being pretentious. Instead, he felt that he was being low-key enough. If not, the title he reported wouldn't be the grandson of Sea Prefecture's headmaster but Monarch Wei.
Yes, Wei Lu was a disciple of the Imperial Family.
"Nice to meet you!"
An Xinhui nodded. "How is Headmaster Wei's health recently? Is his asthma any better? "
"It's still the same!"
Wei Lu was very happy to be able to converse with An Xinhui. After all, this was a great beauty ranked # 5 on the Devastating Beauty Rankings. If he married her, many men would definitely die of envy.
"Cough cough!"
The girl beside him was unhappy and coughed twice.
"Oh, Lin`er, let me introduce you. This is An Xinhui, Headmaster An of the Central Province Academy."
Wei Lu introduced.
"Central Province Academy? Isn't it that supreme-grade famous school? "
Wan Yanlin had a look of shock on her face as she looked at Wei Lu. "You are actually acquainted with such a major character?"
"Eh, you are mistaken. The Central Province Academy is no longer a supreme-grade famous school. Right now, it's a'D 'grade!"
Wei Lu explained.
"Why would it drop to'D 'grade? Are you sure you're not mistaken? "
Wan Yanlin pretended to be surprised.
"This is a long story."
Wei Lu was still explaining seriously, but the countenances of the people from the Central Province Academy were already unsightly.
Only Wei Lu's personality was more straightforward. The others could tell that Wan Yanlin was intentionally exposing An Xinhui's group to make things difficult for them.
"Hmph!"
Wan Yanlin was a princess of Jin Country and was very beautiful. On the way here, Wei Lu had been very attentive, wanting to woo her. Although Wan Yanlin didn't accept it, she enjoyed the feeling of being licked.
Who knew that the moment they entered the hotel, Wei Lu would abandon her after seeing An Xinhui. What did this count as? Moreover, what made her unhappy was that this woman was even more beautiful than her.
Although Wan Yanlin was a princess, she was completely inferior in terms of intelligence.
"Isn't she just ranked # 5 on the Devastating Beauty Rankings? When I get my great teacher qualification next spring, I will also be ranked on the rankings. "
Wan Yanlin was unhappy.
This ranking was also called the Beauty Rankings. However, if one wanted to be ranked on it, one not only had to be beautiful, but one also had to be a great teacher.
"Boss Lei, can I trouble you to prepare a room?"
Sun Mo urged.
"Wait a minute, we have already booked this hotel."
Wan Yanlin interrupted Sun Mo.
"Oi, looking at your uniform, you are also a teacher, right? Do you understand the principle of 'first come, first served'? "
Li Ziqi knew that if her teacher said these words, it would lower his status. Hence, she said it on his behalf.
However, the little sunny egg was clearly thinking too much. Sun Mo wouldn't care about this. He didn't scold these two because what they said was the truth. The Central Province Academy had indeed declined.
"The people who came first are those who have already checked in. You guys? Aren't you all still standing in the lobby? "
Wan Yanlin argued.
"Lin-er!"
Wei Lu persuaded, not wanting to fall out with An Xinhui. After all, beauties would always receive preferential treatment. "Why don't we change to another hotel?"
"Why do we have to change?"
Upon hearing this, Wan Yanlin was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She directly exploded and questioned loudly, "Are you a bootlicker?"
Wei Lu's expression changed.
"Then is your Haizhou Academy afraid of the Central Province Academy?"
Wan Yanlin continued to ask.
"How can that be?"
Wei Lu smiled confidently. "No matter what, my Haizhou Academy is a frequent customer in the top three of the'D 'grade!"
"Oh, since that's the case, why did you give up the hotel to her?"
Wan Yanlin spoke in a righteous manner. "Right now, it's the league tournament period and it's not easy to book a hotel in White Dew City. If you miss out on this hotel, how long more do you have to bring the students to run around? You might not be tired, but they are! "
Wei Lu had an awkward look on his face. After thinking about it carefully, this was really the case. He turned his head and discovered that the other teachers had long since grown impatient. Hence, he smiled.
"Headmaster An, I'm sorry. We have booked this hotel!"
Wei Lu shrugged, indicating that he was helpless.
"You guys can book it just because you want to. Have you asked for my opinion?"
Boss Lei's lips twitched. Just when he wanted to tell these two groups that he was a businessman who valued his reputation, he heard the young man's offer.
"I will give you one million taels every day!"
Wei Lu smiled confidently. This price was sufficient to book the best holiday hotel in White Dew City, let alone this' Ten Thousand Maple 'which had less than 200 rooms.
Boss Lei's serious expression immediately turned into a humble smile. "I wonder what this great teacher's name is?"
"Wei Lu!"
Wei Lu waved his hand. "Go and tidy up the rooms!"
Liu Mubai had an expression as though he had eaten sh * t. What could he do when encountering a second-generation emperor who didn't lack money? He was also in despair!
Zhang Hanfu felt a little unhappy that his school was being insulted. But when he saw Sun Mo suffering a setback, he felt happy. (Who asked you to be arrogant? Now, you know that there's always someone better out there, right?)
"Wait a minute."
Sun Mo frowned. "I'll pay two million taels!"
Boss Lei pinched his fingers hard before he couldn't control his laughter. As expected, the god of wealth had arrived today.
"Yo, competing with me in throwing money?"
Wei Lu grew joyful. He surveyed Sun Mo. "In that case, I'll pay three million taels. You continue to follow!"
"Teacher Sun, don't be angry. His family has a mine, but do you have one?"
Zhang Hanfu seemed as though he was trying to dissuade Sun Mo, but he was actually mocking him. He wanted nothing more than for Sun Mo to continue shouting.
After hearing this, Li Ziqi rolled her eyes. (Please, my teacher's family really has a mine!)
"You don't have to pay so much money. There's no need!"
Wan Yanlin surveyed Sun Mo. "Didn't you say that the Central Province Academy has declined? The league tournament will continue for at least half a month. Two million taels a day means a total of 30 million taels. I don't believe they can afford it! "
Wan Yanlin's meaning was very simple. Since Sun Mo couldn't take out so much money, there was no need for them to increase the price.
"This small amount of money doesn't matter."
Wei Lu pretended to be very magnanimous before the woman. "Boss, quickly go and prepare the rooms. You don't have to worry about this Sun... Teacher Sun, right? No matter how much money he is willing to pay, I'll pay double! "
An Xinhui's expression turned unsightly because these words were a little too overboard. Also, it was true that she didn't have so much money.
Boss Lei glanced at An Xinhui. When he discovered that the headmaster no longer spoke, he knew that this matter had ended. "Headmaster An, I'm sorry. Teacher Wei, everyone, please come this way."
"Wait a minute!"
Li Ziqi wanted to act. As her father's most doted on daughter, she had her own land the moment she was born and would receive a lot of benefits every year.
Competing in wealth?
The little sunny egg wasn't afraid at all. She was most proficient in throwing money. Moreover, she had always been the one throwing money at others.
"Ziqi, don't accept such provocations."
Sun Mo called out to the little sunny egg.
"Hehe!"
Wan Yanlin sneered in disdain. (No matter how lofty your reason is, it can't change the fact that you are poor.)
"I'll remember it, teacher!"
Li Ziqi indicated that she understood.
"Go, bring the first box on the left over from the luggage rack!"
Sun Mo instructed.
"Alright!"
Li Ziqi jogged away.
Boss Lei was a shrewd person. The moment he saw this, he knew that this matter wasn't over yet. Hence, he wasn't in a hurry to leave. However, Zhang Hanfu couldn't help but start shooting.
"Teacher Sun, it's already late now. If we still don't look for a hotel, could it be that you want the students to spend the night on the streets?"
Sun Mo didn't bother with Zhang Hanfu. He took out his pocket watch and glanced at it.
The horse carriage was just outside the hotel. Hence, tens of seconds later, Ying Baiwu carried the suitcase and followed Li Ziqi back.
"Boss, 1,000 spirit crystals. I'll book your hotel for half a month."
Sun Mo's tone was very casual.
However, the others were stunned. They subconsciously glanced at the suitcase Ying Baiwu was carrying.
In the Darkness Continent, let alone spirit crystals which were a grade higher than spirit stones, even spirit stones were strategic resources. They were resounding hard currency.
Things like gold and silver couldn't be eaten or worn. To put it bluntly, they were expensive items of equivalent value. When one was about to starve to death, they wouldn't even be as useful as a piece of steamed bun.
However, spirit crystals were different. After cultivators absorbed the spirit qi essence within, they could really not eat or drink for a few days and still be in a pretty good state.
Ying Baiwu placed the suitcase on her left arm and used her right hand to open it, showing it to Boss Lei.
