Qin Fen wasn't able to recruit Xuanyuan Po. This was a humiliation, and he naturally wouldn't spread it around. However, the average-looking and slightly uglier students didn't have such concerns. Moreover, the process of Sun Mo subduing Xuanyuan Po was truly astonishing. Moreover, the outcome was like a toad eating swan meat. It was simply too surprising. Therefore, after they returned to their dorm, they couldn't wait to inform their dorm mates about this matter. Then, the news spread even more widely.
The second day of the student recruitment meet arrived. The school was still filled with people.
Zhang Sheng sat in the canteen, stirring the porridge in front of him with a gloomy expression. Yesterday, he had run around until his legs were broken. He had spoken too much and his voice was hoarse, but he hadn't managed to recruit a single student.
"Don't be depressed. It's that difficult for intern teachers to recruit students. Yesterday, I was rejected over 20 times."
Yuan Feng took a bite of his bun and could only turn his grief and indignation into appetite.
Zhang Sheng couldn't be bothered with Yuan Feng, thinking that a trash like you had the face to compare yourself with me? However, when he thought of how he had also been rejected over 30 times, his countenance turned even more unsightly.
"All of you are fools. You guys don't even know what you've missed out on."
Zhang Sheng felt that the students who had rejected him were truly blind.
Ludi was eating his porridge. After he finished it, he still had to hurry up and cook pig trotters. He knew his own capabilities and had never thought of recruiting students.
"As long as I serve Teacher Zhou well and get him to write a few nice comments for me, my qualifications to stay in the school will be stable."
Ludi didn't have high requirements. He would first stay in the school and then slowly climb up.
"Have you guys heard? Sun Mo has deceived Xuanyuan Po! "
"That can't be true, right? Xuanyuan Po doesn't even fancy Liu Mubai. How can he follow Sun Mo? "
"Didn't Sun Mo go to the logistics department? Does he have the qualifications to accept disciples? "
The intern teachers at the neighboring table discussed as they ate.
Yuan Feng was curious and went over. After hearing a few words, he was extremely shocked. "Are you guys joking? Where did this news come from? How can someone like Sun Mo recruit Xuanyuan Po? "
"Someone saw it with their own eyes. Moreover, Qin Fen and Gu Xiuxun were also present at that time..."
Before this intern teacher could finish speaking, he heard a loud bang, causing him to jump in fright. He turned his head and saw Zhang Sheng slamming his chopsticks onto the table.
"Bullshit!" Zhang Sheng roared in rage. "What qualifications does that Sun Mo have?"
"That's right. If Gu Xiuxun and Qin Fen were here, it would be even more impossible for Xuanyuan Po to choose Sun Mo." Yuan Feng sat back down and continued to eat his breakfast. "Stop spreading nonsense. Sun Mo must have gotten people to spread this rumor in order to expand his reputation and make it easier for him to recruit students."
Hearing Yuan Feng's words, the intern teachers also started to feel suspicious. After all, the possibility of Sun Mo recruiting Xuanyuan Po was basically zero.
"I see!"
Zhang Sheng, who was still feeling angry, was suddenly enlightened. (I knew it. If I can't do it, that Sun Mo wouldn't be able to do it either!)
…
Teaching building, office.
There weren't any lessons for the next few days, but the official teachers weren't idling around either. Putting aside the fact that they were also selecting students, once the student recruitment meet ended, it would be time for classes to officially begin. Teaching plans and other materials had to be prepared in advance.
Zhou Lin pushed the door open and entered. She smiled before saying anything, "Teachers, did you learn anything?"
"It's Assistant Lin." Teacher Zhou Shanyi, who was a little chubby, patted his belly and immediately continued, "Why? Are you here to gather information for Headmaster An? "
"I'm also very concerned, alright!"
Zhou Lin pretended to be angry and rolled her eyes. Teacher Zhou didn't feel angry but rather enjoyed it. After all, beautiful women could be tolerated no matter what they did.
"Didn't the school collect the information of those outstanding students and send it to us? I went around and saw quite a few of them. I've also gained something. "
Teacher Jiang Yongnian, whose hair was combed meticulously, picked up his teacup and drank a mouthful. He had a contented expression on his face. He had just reached 30 years of age, so his competitive spirit wasn't weak.
Whether a teacher's teaching ability was strong or not wasn't determined by their words. Rather, it depended on their results. What were results? Can they teach outstanding students?! And the first step was to recruit students.
Although the school didn't reward them, the teachers would secretly compete with each other during the student recruitment meet every year, fighting for those outstanding students.
"Oh, I'll have to congratulate Teacher Jiang then."
Zhou Lin congratulated.
"Speaking of which, Liu Mubai, who has such high standards, also took a fancy to a young man named Xuanyuan Po. Guess what happened in the end?"
Jiang Yongnian stroked his teacup, his countenance filled with smiles.
"What happened?"
Zhou Lin played the role of the supporting actor.
"He rejected me."
Although Jiang Yongnian was a 1-star great teacher, he knew that Liu Mubai, who hadn't obtained the title of '1-star great teacher', was a very strong competitor. Hence, he felt very good when he saw Liu Mubai suffering a setback.
"The youths nowadays are too arrogant. Only when they hit a wall would they know how precious an opportunity they have lost!"
Lian Zheng regarded Liu Mubai very highly, so he was very angry at Xuanyuan Po.
"Did a great teacher with a star make a move?"
Zhou Lin wasn't surprised. The teachers had a very high evaluation of Liu Mubai, and even An Xinhui had high hopes for him. However, the students didn't know about this.
"Nope."
Jiang Yongnian kept her in suspense. "Why don't you guess?"
"Could it be one of the teachers here?"
Zhou Lin glanced over, thinking of nice words in her heart and preparing to flatter him.
"Nope."
Jiang Yongnian shook his head.
Zhou Lin fell silent and her countenance turned heavy. Her intellect and emotional quotient weren't bad. Since Jiang Yongnian kept on denying it, it meant that the teacher who got Xuanyuan Po must be very special. She then had a flash of inspiration.
"Could it be Gu Xiuxun?"
That's right, it would only be surprising if an intern teacher got a genius.
"Guess again!" Jiang Yongnian chuckled. "By the way, it's not the three graduates from the Nine Greats either."
Zhou Lin's brows furrowed. She had gone through the information of those intern teachers and memorized them. There wasn't anyone who was especially outstanding.
"What's there to guess? It's Sun Mo! "
Lian Zheng was unhappy. Jiang Yongnian was saying all this to ridicule Liu Mubai. His hidden meaning was telling everyone that Liu Mubai was inferior to an intern teacher.
"Who?"
Zhou Lin was like a fighting rooster that had encountered an enemy. She instantly straightened her neck.
"Sun Mo." Jiang Yongnian added oil to the fire and told them the news he had heard. "However, this fellow is really scheming. He actually knows how to use words to trick people."
The teachers in the office didn't say anything, but their opinions were similar. They felt that Sun Mo was using words to attack the heart, which was why he managed to deceive a young man like Xuanyuan Po who didn't know much about the world.
"I feel that Sun Mo's identity as Headmaster An's fiance has a greater effect."
Lian Zheng felt that Sun Mo was using his connections to intimidate others. By bringing out this identity, even adults who didn't know the inside story would be intimidated, let alone students.
"No matter what the result is, Xuanyuan Po's potential is most probably going to be crippled."
Jiang Yongnian sighed ruefully. If he were to guide Xuanyuan Po, there would definitely be a spot for him on the Greencloud Rankings.
Zhou Lin chatted with everyone for a while more before she came out and headed straight for the headmaster's office.
"What's wrong?"
An Xinhui heard Zhou Lin's hurried footsteps and thought that something major had happened.
"Xuanyuan Po has acknowledged Sun Mo as his teacher." Zhou Lin quickly told them the news she had heard earlier. "Since it's not too late, quickly get Sun Mo to give up Xuanyuan Po and hand him over to Liu Mubai."
"Calm down first!"
An Xinhui passed a cup of water to Zhou Lin.
"How can I still calm down? If this continues, that Xuanyuan Po will be crippled. "
Zhou Lin was very anxious. To the current Central Province Academy, they couldn't waste any good seedlings. Only by nurturing outstanding students would they have the capital to return to the ranks of the Nine Greats.
The summer wind blew in, ruffling An Xinhui's hair.
"Eldest Miss, that fellow must be using his identity as your fiance to swindle people. We must warn him, or who knows how many good seedlings will be wasted by him!"
Zhou Lin felt indignant.
"That won't happen!" An Xinhui shook her head. Some distant memories floated up in her mind. "Sun Mo isn't that kind of person!"
"My Eldest Miss, people's hearts will change. You always have such a good opinion of others."
Zhou Lin felt depressed.
"I believe in Sun Mo."
An Xinhui persisted.
"Alright, even if Sun Mo didn't use the name of your fiance to swindle people and only schemed to recruit Xuanyuan Po, what would happen in the future? He is just a graduate from Songyang Academy. Would he be able to teach Xuanyuan Po? "
Zhou Lin snorted disdainfully. "I've inquired about it. This young man is highly regarded by Liu Mubai, and even a few great teachers are paying close attention to him. He must be a genius. In the end, he was snatched away by Sun Mo. What's the meaning of this?"
An Xinhui continued to bend over her desk and work.
"Eldest Miss, quickly think of a solution. It's fine even if Gu Xiuxun and Qin Fen get Xuanyuan Po. Sun Mo, why him? "
Zhou Lin was unhappy. It was like seeing a beautiful bride sleeping with a smelly and dirty neighbor. Just thinking about it made her feel disgusted.
"Why can't it be him?"
An Xinhui suddenly asked.
"Because..."
Zhou Lin naturally had a bunch of reasons, but before she could explain, she was interrupted by An Xinhui.
"That's enough. Go back to work."
An Xinhui's tone was strict.
Although the eldest miss usually treated people very well, she would be very imposing when she was angry. Zhou Lin didn't dare to disobey An Xinhui. Her lips twitched and she left unwillingly.
An Xinhui bent over her desk again, but there was an additional stray thought in her heart. Hence, she put down her pen and walked to the window, looking down at the campus.
"Little Momo, it's fine if you can't help me. But I hope that you can prove yourself and not be looked down upon by others."
An Xinhui touched the window frame carved with flowers and looked at the grass and trees on the campus. It was as if she could see the little boy who was like a little tail following behind her, calling out 'elder sister'. Hence, the corners of her lips involuntarily curled up into a smile.
This campus had her beautiful childhood. She had to protect it no matter what. She wanted to be delisted? Unless she wanted to step over her own corpse!
...
Sun Mo sat in a corner of the canteen, drinking his porridge while admiring the book floating before him. It was enshrouded in purple light, looking magnificent and mysterious.
"System, say it again!"
Sun Mo requested.
