"What's this teacher's name?"
Among the spectators, some students started to inquire about Sun Mo's name.
This was how the great teacher world was. The greater the fame of a teacher, the more students would come. If there were a few more outstanding students who could ascend onto the Greencloud Rankings, then the doorstep of the teacher's house would be trampled to pieces by the students who came to seek knowledge.
"Sun Mo actually won?"
In the crowd, Yuan Fengman's face was filled with shock. What was Qin Fen doing? You, a graduate from Jixia Learning Palace, actually lost to Sun Mo, a nobody in Songyang Academy? Did you buy your diploma?
Although it wasn't good to belittle one's alma mater, Songyang Academy's ranking was only'D ', which was a far cry from a student from one of the Nine Greats. How could you have lost?
Qin Fen was one of the only three intern teachers who had graduated from the Nine Greats. Usually, his eyesight was so great that he didn't even think highly of people like Zhang Sheng. In the end, he had become Sun Mo's stepping stone.
"Sun Mo is going to be famous now!"
Thinking of this, Yuan Feng was filled with envy and jealousy.
"Teacher Sun is truly impressive!"
In the crowd, Qi Shengjia's gaze was filled with worship as he stared at Sun Mo. When he looked at Zou Ping, his gaze turned into envy. Sigh, his aptitude was too bad and he didn't have the chance to acknowledge Teacher Sun as his master.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Qi Shengjia + 20.
Prestige connection with Qi Shengjia: Neutral (393/1,000).
"Qin Fen, you lost!"
Sun Mo naturally wouldn't answer Zou An's question. He wasn't worthy yet. The system's notification also caused him to sigh ruefully.
As expected, Qi Shengjia was an honest person. He was merely a spectator, yet he was already impressed by Sun Mo. He gave Sun Mo so many favorable impression points, even more than Zou Ping, who had truly received an upgrade.
"Should we accept him?"
Sun Mo felt conflicted.
Qin Fen, who was already resentful, blushed instantly when he heard this. He was ashamed to the extreme, and then his face turned green.
No, I haven't lost yet!
Qin Fen racked his brains, trying to find a loophole. He then questioned, "Sun Mo, Zou Ping won not because his martial techniques were upgraded but because of his physical attributes. Did you feed him something?"
Hua!
The moment he said this, an uproar broke out. It was because Qin Fen was implying that Sun Mo was cheating.
"Your desire to live is really strong."
Sun Mo sneered.
Zou An's eyes lit up.
"Teaching Assistant Qin, please don't slander Teacher Sun and my character."
Sun Mo wasn't anxious, but Zou Pingxian was. There was no solution to it. If he didn't quickly clarify things and let others misunderstand that his victory was because he had consumed an alchemy pill to temporarily raise his combat strength, it would be a great stain on his reputation.
Moreover, after witnessing the prowess of the Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands, Zou Ping had already decided to acknowledge Sun Mo as his teacher. At such a time, the disciple would naturally speak up and help his teacher to attack.
"Qin Fen, please watch your words."
Jin Mujie frowned. She didn't like Qin Fen's attitude of not acknowledging his loss.
"Teacher Jin, if Sun Mo has a clear conscience, I want to know what guidance he gave Zou Ping." For the sake of his reputation, Qin Fen could only fight with his life on the line. Fortunately, he wasn't stupid. He knew how to cover up, "This is also a kind of experience for me."
Whoosh!
The gazes of everyone turned to Sun Mo. Actually, everyone was curious as well.
"Sun Mo, what do you think?"
Jin Mujie asked.
"I don't mind!" Sun Mo shrugged. "Zou Ping, you tell him!"
"Teacher Sun used the Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands to massage me for about five minutes. After that, my physique improved tremendously and I'm about to reach the second level of the body-refinement realm soon."
Zou Ping explained. Before his words ended, Zou An cried out first.
"Impossible!"
Zou An's expression was one of 'You're lying' as he retorted indignantly, "Your realm should be the same as mine. Based on my estimation, you'll need at least three months before you can level up. Who are you lying to to get such a huge improvement in just five minutes?"
"Actually, I don't believe it either, but this is the truth!"
Zou Ping was very happy when he saw his younger brother's expression. (Now, you know how amazing your elder brother is, right? In the future, you better maintain your respect for me!)
"Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands? It sounds so domineering! "
"Five minutes of massage is comparable to three months of cultivation? Why does it sound a little fake? "
"It must be a lie, right?"
The spectators whispered to each other. If what Zou Ping said was true, then Sun Mo's Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands was almost comparable to the effect of the Origin Nurturing Pill.
This was a type of alchemy pill used in the body-refinement realm. After consuming it, it could directly consolidate one's foundations and strengthen one's physique, allowing one's realm to rise by one level.
Of course, the price was also very expensive. A random pill would cost over 10,000 taels of silver. If one's family didn't have a mine, it was best not to think about it and just focus on cultivating.
Hearing Zou Ping's words, Qin Fen's spirits stirred as if he had grabbed onto a life-saving straw. He immediately questioned, "Sun Mo, we're competing in guidance, not massage and tuina!"
"Hehe, Teaching Assistant Qin, can you be any more shameless?" Sun Mo was amused. "Let me ask you, what is considered guidance?"
"Of course it's to point out the student's shortcomings!"
Qin Fen forcefully maintained his stance, but even he felt embarrassed when he said this.
In the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces, the guidance a teacher provided to a student was comprehensive. Not only did it include guidance on cultivation, but it also included the maintenance and conditioning of the student's body, psychological guidance, and even marriage.
It could be said that after a student acknowledged a master, they would become the teacher's unpolished jade. The teacher's final goal was to forge them into a perfect work of art.
Some strict great teachers would control a lot of things. Let alone a student's diet, cultivation plan, and rest time, they would even control their emotional life.
If a student encountered a great teacher who focused on restraining desires, they would have to be mentally prepared that they wouldn't have a chance to roll around in bed for the rest of their lives.
After Sun Mo found out about this in the library, he was also shocked. However, he soon felt at ease.
In ancient China, the relationship between teachers and students was very close. Even in the modern era, those top-notch coaches were also very strict with their athletes.
In the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces, after a student acknowledged a master, they would follow the teacher and learn. The teacher would also have to do his best to guide them. Many teachers wouldn't dare to say that they would treat their students as their own sons, but it wouldn't be a problem for them to treat their students like half a son.
As long as they didn't cheat, it didn't matter what the teachers guided their students. As long as they could defeat their opponents, they would be considered a good teacher.
The surrounding students let out shameless laughter, suddenly feeling a little disappointed with Jixia Learning Palace. Their graduates were only at this level?
Of course, more students and teachers were interested in Sun Mo's Ancient Dragon Capturing Hand.
"You want me to guide you? Alright, this Zou Ping's martial arts are inferior to his younger brother's, and his moves aren't coherent enough. He needs to practice hard. As for Zou An, he's very proficient in this Crow Fist, able to retract and release it freely. It's also because of this that he could go easy on Zou Ping in all the previous competitions, causing Zou Ping to misjudge their strength. "
Sun Mo spoke up.
In the battle earlier, he had kept his Divine Sight activated. Through the detailed data of the two of them and comparing it to their actual combat, it was very easy for him to come to some conclusions.
"However, Zou An also has his shortcomings. He relies too much on his right hand, and the prowess of his left hand is almost halved. If he doesn't practice more, it's very likely that he would be targeted and defended against."
Zou An, who was initially unconvinced, was stunned. He looked at Sun Mo in astonishment because everything Sun Mo said was correct. However, he had only exchanged less than ten moves with his elder brother. It was just tens of breaths' time, yet Sun Mo had managed to see through so many things?
Yue Rongbo assessed Sun Mo in astonishment. It seemed that Sun Mo was even more amazing than he had expected.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Yue Rongbo + 3.
Prestige connection with Yue Rongbo: Neutral (6/100).
Jin Mujie's beautiful eyes stared at Sun Mo, feeling a little surprised. After that, she felt a little angry. Zhang Hanfu and Wang Su had thrown Sun Mo to the logistics department in order to fight for power. Luckily, Sun Mo didn't resign out of anger. Otherwise, the Central Province Academy would have lost a good teacher.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Jin Mujie + 1.
Prestige connection with Jin Mujie: Neutral (3/100).
Hearing the system's notification, Sun Mo couldn't help but twitch his lips. (These two great teachers really have high expectations of me. They are really stingy in giving favorable impression points.)
The two great teachers had long since seen through the Zou brothers. That was why they admired Sun Mo.
The spectators didn't know if Sun Mo was right or not, but Zou An knew. Moreover, if he lost, he probably wouldn't have the chance to enter Liu Mubai's tutelage. Therefore, he walked over and knelt before Sun Mo.
"Teacher Sun, please accept me as your disciple!"
Bang!
Zou An kowtowed.
(To be able to see through my background with just a few moves, Sun Mo shouldn't be too bad either. Moreover, he seems to be Headmaster An Xinhui's fiance. If I can make use of this connection, I'll be able to climb even higher.)
Zou Ping was stunned when he saw his younger brother's actions. After that, he came to a realization. His younger brother was trying to snatch food from the tiger's mouth. Therefore, he quickly rushed over.
"Teacher Sun, student Zou Ping admires your talent and hopes to enter your tutelage!"
Bang!
Zou Ping kowtowed. As he was wary of his younger brother, he kowtowed even harder.
The two students knelt before Sun Mo respectfully. Without his words, they didn't dare to get up.
At the sight of this scene, Qin Fen was so angry that his lips twitched. It was like the cabbage he had his eyes on had been snatched away. After that, an indescribable sense of disappointment appeared on his face.
There was no longer a need for Jin Mujie, the judge, to determine the victor. The Zou brothers' kowtowing was the best answer.
Sun Mo's victory was indisputable!
"Teacher, you managed to snatch it!"
Li Ziqi stretched out her finger and secretly poked Sun Mo's arm.
Lu Zhiruo smiled sweetly at the side. She looked at Sun Mo with eyes filled with worship. (Teacher Sun is so impressive!)
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Li Ziqi + 10.
Prestige connection with Li Ziqi: Neutral (126/1,000).
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Lu Zhiruo + 15.
Prestige connection with Lu Zhiruo: Neutral (128/1,000).
In the crowd, Qi Shengjia looked at the Zou brothers with incomparable envy. He also wanted to be Teacher Sun Mo's student!
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Qi Shengjia + 20.
Prestige connection with Qi Shengjia: Neutral (413/1,000).
Hearing the continuous notifications, Sun Mo felt a little embarrassed. (Qi Shengjia, I'll feel proud if you admire me so much.) However, he couldn't help but glance at Xuanyuan Po. This combat addict was standing at the side and watching the show with his arms crossed, completely unmoved.
Yuan Feng was so jealous that his eyes turned red. If killing wasn't against the law, he would immediately rush out and mince Sun Mo into meat paste.
For this student recruitment meet, as long as an intern teacher could recruit five students, they would be able to officially join the Saint Gate and become a teacher officially recognized by the Saint Gate. But Sun Mo had done it now. He was even faster than Qin Fen.
Jin Mujie took a few steps back and gave the stage to Sun Mo. This was the glory that belonged to him.
Seeing that Sun Mo had no reaction, Zou An felt a little unhappy in his heart. (I've already given you enough face. Why don't you hurry up and agree?)
If it was other intern teachers, they would have stretched out their hands to help Sun Mo up. Hence, he endured his frustration and shouted in a louder voice, "Teacher, please accept me as your disciple!"
"Teacher, please accept me as your disciple!"
Zou Ping hurriedly followed. No matter what, he had to enter the school and become his younger brother's senior.
