"What do you mean?"
Zhang Lan raised her eyebrows and stared at him.
The tone of the young man wasn't too good, but he wasn't mocking Zhang Lan. He was unhappy with the current situation. He had waited for two days and didn't even see a single strand of Great Teacher Jiang's hair. However, the moment this Gu Qingyan arrived, he immediately entered. This caused him to feel extremely unhappy.
He was being looked down upon!
The gatekeeper allowed Gu Qingyan to enter. What did this mean?
This meant that even if Great Teacher Jiang didn't say anything, a gatekeeper would also know that the Old Master would definitely want to meet a character like Gu Qingyan.
This was differential treatment.
Towards Zhang Lan, the young man knew that he was in the wrong. If it was any other time, he would apologize. However, he couldn't do it today. There were close to a hundred examinees in the surroundings. If he apologized, wouldn't he be mistaken as a coward?
"It means whatever you think it means!"
The young man retorted.
Most people wanted face, especially at the barbecue stalls in the summer. It was common to see such verbal conflicts. Actually, it was not a big deal, but because of face, they started fighting.
Clang!
Zhang Lan unsheathed her scimitar. The bright blade shone with a terrifying radiance under the sunlight.
"What are you doing? Do you want to fight? "
The young man's name was Wei Lu. He had come to take the exam with a group of colleagues who were on good terms with him. At this moment, they were also together. Seeing this, they all crowded over, clearly intending to advance and retreat together.
"Calm down, everyone!"
Qian Dun stepped forward and said, "Zhang shi, it's just a small matter. There's no need to take it to heart!"
"What's there to be angry about? Let's fight then!"
Gu Xiuxun waited here for over half an hour and was also filled with anger. This young man was unhappy, and she was unhappy as well. She just happened to lack a place to vent her anger.
"Gu's, don't make trouble!"
Qian Dun was helpless. You guys are geniuses and have nothing to fear, but I can't. If they were to fight, do you think I should go up or not? If I don't do it, how will I survive in the future?
If I went up, I would most likely be injured. Wouldn't that affect my assessment?
"Teacher Sun, can you persuade him?"
Qian Dun looked at Sun Mo.
Sun Mo didn't expect to see such a scene of a group fight here. For a moment, he felt a little nostalgic. The last time he fought was when he was in junior high.
"I know you're not angry at us, but your tone is too annoying. Apologize, and we'll let this matter go."
Sun Mo spoke.
He could be considered the leader of this temporary 'great teacher group'. Since something had happened, he naturally had to take responsibility.
"You want me to apologize?"
Wei Lu sneered and patted the saber on his waist. "Ask my saber first!"
The people who were waiting around had already begun to watch.
"Master Teacher Jiang?"
Sun Mo suddenly turned his head and looked to the left. After that, he revealed a respectful expression.
Wei Lu and the others were originally staring at Sun Mo. Upon seeing this, they hurriedly retracted their expressions and looked toward the door, preparing to greet him.
"Teacher Sun, this is the entrance of the Jiang Manor, you can't make a move here …"
Wang Chao knew how iron-headed Sun Mo was. It was a pity that after he finished speaking, Sun Mo had already acted.
Whoosh!
Sun Mo rushed out.
"Oh no!"
Wei Lu was quite smart. As soon as he turned to look at the door, he knew he was in trouble because he didn't hear the door open.
One had to know that with Jiang Wei's status, if he went out, he would definitely go through the main door and not the side door.
Pa!
Wei Lu subconsciously pulled out his saber, but just as his right hand touched the hilt, it was pushed away by a hand.
"Too late!"
With a smack, Sun Mo forcefully pulled out the long blade hanging on Wei Lu's waist. After that, he exerted force with his wrist and the long blade was half-unsheathed, placing it against Wei Lu's neck.
So fast!
Upon seeing this scene, the spectators were all extremely shocked. Half of them knew that they wouldn't be able to block Sun Mo's sneak attack.
This meant that if they were to fight against him in the great teacher combat examination, they would definitely lose.
"He should be at the sixth or seventh level of the blood-ignition realm!"
"He might just be proficient in movement arts!"
"However, this move is truly a show-off!"
The surrounding teachers mumbled and started to seriously survey Sun Mo.
The expressions of Wei Lu and the others were extremely unsightly. This was especially so for Wei Lu. His face directly flushed up as he roared in rage, "You cheated!"
"You are clearly the one who is stupid!"
Gu Xiuxun spoke in disdain. (Sun Mo is truly black-bellied, actually using schemes. I have to be careful in the future not to be tricked by him.)
Zhang Lan couldn't help but laugh. Black Doggy Sun truly lived up to his reputation. His heart was so dirty!
"You..."
Gu Xiuxun was very beautiful. Although her breasts were a little small, she had a pair of long legs. Being looked down on by such a beauty caused Wei Lu to be so angry that he wanted to kill someone.
"Sigh!"
Wang Chao sighed.
"Just accept your fate. I've never seen Teacher Sun cowering before. But following him really feels great!"
Qian Dun sighed ruefully. If he followed Sun Mo, he definitely wouldn't be the one to suffer. It felt so good.
"Your master said that he has to ask for your opinion before apologizing!"
Sun Mo made a listening gesture toward the long blade on Wei Lu's neck. "In that case, what do you think?"
(Are you mocking me?) (You are definitely mocking me, right?)
Wei Lu's lungs were about to explode from anger. This was especially so when he heard someone laughing at the side. This simply caused him to be too ashamed to show his face.
"This teacher, your blade doesn't seem to know how to speak!"
Sun Mo shrugged. "In that case, it seems that there's a problem with your brain. Go and get it treated, or it would be too late for regrets when you become a retard."
"You are the retard, your entire family is... uhh..."
Wei Lu couldn't continue because Sun Mo's long blade was pressed against his throat. The coldness of the blade instantly caused his hair to stand on end and he felt a little urge to pee.
"Haha!"
The surrounding people laughed loudly.
"You want to fight me? No problem, but you have to apologize to my colleague first! "
Sun Mo's expression turned solemn.
"Sorry, I'm in the wrong!"
After Wei Lu spoke to Zhang Lan, he looked at Sun Mo. "Is this enough?"
Swish!
Sun Mo's finger moved and drew a flower with the blade. He then passed the handle of the long blade to Wei Lu.
Pak!
Wei Lu grabbed the handle and roared, "Liang City's Wei Lu, please guide me!"
"Teacher Sun, this battle is mine!"
Just when Zhang Lan stood out and didn't say anything, an imposing voice rang out along with the sound of hooves.
"What are you guys doing?"
Jiang Zhitong pulled the reins and the purplish-red horse stopped in front of the door.
"Teacher Jiang!"
The group of people hurriedly bowed.
This man in his thirties was Jiang Wei's second son. He was a 3-star great teacher and held a post in the Saint Gate. His strength was outstanding and he was also one of the examiners this time around.
"You are so young yet you are so aggressive. What a disgrace!"
Jiang Zhitong reprimanded.
"Teacher Jiang, we know our mistake!"
Wei Lu's group hurriedly bowed and apologized.
Over at the Central Province Academy's side, Qian Dun and Wang Chao also apologized. Gu Xiuxun lowered her head and didn't admit her mistake. As for Sun Mo and Zhang Lan, they didn't even lower their heads.
Jiang Zhitong's eyes narrowed slightly before opening again. He naturally wouldn't berate Sun Mo and Zhang Lan because of this little bit of rudeness. However, he definitely didn't like them.
"It's a great virtue to know your mistakes and change them!"
After Jiang Zhitong spoke, he got off his horse and returned home. A manservant had already come over to lead the horse. The middle-aged gatekeeper also opened the side door and respectfully welcomed Jiang Zhitong home.
"What kind of gatekeeper are you? Don't you know how to reprimand someone for causing a conflict at the entrance? "
Jiang Zhitong was very angry.
(My Jiang Clan is also a major clan, yet we allow a bunch of youngsters to fight at the entrance. What a disgrace! Where is the prestige of my Jiang Clan?)
"This slave knows his mistake!"
The gatekeeper hurriedly knelt and admitted his mistake.
"You will be fined half a month's salary. If you do this again, you can go and wait at the back door!"
Jiang Zhitong's management of his clan was extremely strict. This was especially so recently. Because of the great teacher examination, many great teachers of virtue and prestige had come to Guangling. Jiang Zhitong didn't wish to see anyone in his clan making a fool of themselves. If that was the case, others would think that he didn't know how to manage his subordinates.
"Clan leader, Gu Qingyan is here!"
A maid came forward and reported in a low voice after receiving Jiang Zhitong's cloak.
"Got it!"
Jiang Zhitong stood up and walked toward the living room.
"Clan leader, should we let these teachers return first?"
The gatekeeper asked.
Usually, Jiang Zhitong would have sent them away. But today … "Let them wait here!"
If these examinees felt respect for the Jiang Clan, they shouldn't be causing trouble here. They should be quietly waiting respectfully.
"They truly don't know the rules!"
Jiang Zhitong shook his head. The youngsters nowadays were getting worse with each generation.
...
The two groups of people split up.
"Why did Teacher Jiang have to see this?"
Wei Lu was so depressed that he wanted to cough up blood. This time around, he had been scammed by Sun Mo.
The others also had worried looks on their faces. Although they knew that Jiang Zhitong most likely wouldn't make things difficult for them during the examination, they were still worried!
"Teacher Sun, your head is really made of iron!"
Gu Xiuxun looked at the closed door and couldn't help but tease. "Lowering your head and putting on an act won't cause you to lose any flesh. Why must you be so hard? Aren't you afraid that Jiang Zhitong will bear a grudge against you?"
"It doesn't matter!"
Sun Mo's lips twitched. "I rely on my capabilities to make a living!"
Sun Mo was already used to Jiang Zhitong's temper. In the past, when he was in university, he had seen teachers with even worse tempers than Jiang Zhitong.
If there was the slightest mistake, they would scold you badly.
Sun Mo understood why Jiang Zhitong was angry. Wealthy clans wanted face. If you fought in front of their house, wouldn't that be looking down on them?
To put it in another way, if you tried fighting in front of the government's quarters, the guards would rush over and drag you away at any moment.
"You people from the Central Plains really have a lot of rules!"
Zhang Lan's lips twitched.
"Is that Gu Qingyan very famous?"
Sun Mo was curious.
"He's the top graduate from the Skyraise Academy this year. He's a candidate for the headmaster position and has the qualifications to cultivate the Grand Universe Formless Divine Art. He's a genius who has already secured a spot on the Great Teachers Hero Rankings. Can you tell me if he's famous or not?"
Wang Chao reported a few titles, and all of them were enough to scare people to death.
"If I were to tell you all of his titles and honors, I would need five minutes!"
Qian Dun added. "Do you think he's amazing?"
"He's amazing, but he's not as handsome as Sun Mo!"
Gu Xiuxun chortled.
"That's right!"
Zhang Lan nodded. Gu Qingyan wasn't ugly and could even be said to be a little handsome. However, that was when compared to ordinary people. If he stood next to Sun Mo, he wouldn't be enough.
Moreover, Sun Mo's earlier attack was very cool. This was the spirit a group leader should have!
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Zhang Lan + 50. Friendly (350/1,000).
"..."
Qian Dun was speechless. Women were really superficial creatures. They basically didn't understand that talent was the most charming part of a man.
Qian Dun couldn't help but look at Sun Mo. After that, he immediately retracted his words. There was no solution to it. Even in terms of talent, Sun Mo wasn't inferior.
"Which one of you wants to leave?"
Sun Mo didn't wish to wait anymore.
Qian Dun jumped in fright and hurriedly stopped them. "You can't leave, or something will happen!"
