(You created it yourself?)
(Do you think you're a spirit rune great ancestor?)
If it wasn't for the fact that they still had some rationality left, the great teachers who majored in the study of spirit runes would have spurted out blood. Sun Mo's words toppled the worldview they had cultivated for tens of years.
How difficult was it to create a spirit rune?
Even spirit rune grandmasters would rarely be able to do it. One could say that the study of spirit runes had developed for thousands of years and many spirit rune great ancestors had appeared. However, the majority of the existing spirit runes were excavated from ruins in the Darkness Continent. What great ancestors did the most was to research, decipher, and even repair the damaged spirit runes.
In the spirit rune world, the birth of every new spirit rune would definitely cause a huge commotion.
How old was Sun Mo?
He was 21 years old, a young man whose hair had just grown out. He actually dared to boast shamelessly that he had created a spirit rune. Wasn't he afraid that the wind would cut his tongue?
The main examiner Cui Shunde narrowed his eyes and stared at the spirit rune hanging on the wall. Very soon, he saw through the profoundness within.
Although the main structure had changed, the core was still the spirit gathering rune's framework.
(This is amazing!)
One must know that this was the main research direction of spirit rune grandmasters.
"Impossible, how old are you?"
Zou Mei shook her head like a rattle drum. She then explained, "I have no intention to offend you, but you are really too young. How could you have grasped such profound knowledge?"
The growth of a person's knowledge was definitely a gradual process. Sun Mo's age was like a junior high student who had just come into contact with Newton's first law suddenly saying that he had grasped quantum mechanics. Only a ghost would believe him!
"The show is about to start!"
Li Ruolan's eyes flickered, waiting to see Sun Mo's performance.
Sun Mo smiled and then tore the spirit gathering rune apart.
BOOM!
As the spirit rune was activated, a large amount of spirit qi gathered over like tidal waves, crashing against the window frame. A few minutes later, the density of the spirit qi in the classroom reached a saturation point. There were even flashing spots of light.
Several hundred people bathed in the spirit qi and fell silent.
Facts spoke louder than words.
This was definitely a spirit gathering rune, and it was the top-notch kind.
"..."
Zou Mei's mouth opened and closed a few times, but she didn't know what to say. She stared blankly at the spots of light that resembled fireflies. Her entire mind was numb.
Her worldview had collapsed, followed by a deep sense of inferiority and loss.
(I originally thought that I was a genius and had shocking talent in the study of spirit runes. In the future, I would definitely be able to become a spirit rune ancestor. But from the looks of it now, I'm just trash.)
A true genius was someone like Teacher Sun!
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Zou Mei + 100. Friendly (200/1,000).
Sun Mo hung up another piece of spirit rune paper on the blackboard. After dipping the brush in ink, he started to draw. A few minutes later, a Spirit Gathering Rune was completed.
Boom!
A spiritual energy tornado was formed.
Hua!
Another exclamation rang out. Wasn't Sun Mo's speed of drawing spirit runes a little too fast?
Sun Mo didn't stop. He hung up another spirit rune paper and started his magnificent performance.
One painting!
Two paintings!
Three paintings!
…
Within 20 minutes, Sun Mo had completed a total of seven spirit runes. Moreover, not only were each of them different, but a spirit qi tornado had also appeared on each of them.
Hiss!
Even the main examiner, Cui Shunde, who was very knowledgeable, had his eyes wide open as he drew in a breath of cold air. As for the others, they were so shocked that they were speechless.
Usually speaking, if a teacher didn't speak and drew spirit runes for 20 minutes, it would definitely be extremely boring. But when it came to Sun Mo, no one shifted their gazes away for even half a second.
"These are all Spirit Gathering Runes!"
Sun Mo smiled and put down the brush.
"Are... are all created by you?"
Zou Mei's voice trembled as she asked this. She didn't believe it, but she had never seen a single one of these Spirit Gathering Runes before.
"Rather than saying that they are created, it's more appropriate to say that they are deleted!"
Sun Mo explained.
"It's already very impressive to be able to delete spirit runes."
Cui Shunde sighed ruefully.
Many great teachers nodded. Being able to delete spirit runes meant that the spirit rune master had the deepest understanding of the spirit rune. Some spirit rune grandmasters didn't care if the effect would be weakened and could still delete a spirit rune. But to be able to delete so many spirit runes from a Spirit Gathering Rune like Sun Mo...
Other than saying that they had nothing better to do, everyone was filled with deep admiration. This really caused their scalps to turn numb!
"I'm doing this because I hope that everyone will learn to doubt. Don't just believe whatever your teacher says because sometimes, they might be wrong as well."
Sun Mo spoke, revealing the main topic of this lesson.
Hua ~
The entire classroom was in an uproar. After that, it was as though a cold gust of wind had passed by. Not only the students, but even the great teachers were looking at Sun Mo in astonishment.
The gazes of some great teachers were already filled with displeasure.
"Big news!"
Li Ruolan grew excited. She tossed her fountain pen aside and directly took out an image-recording stone, wanting to record everything.
One must know that in the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces, respect for teachers was emphasized. It wouldn't be too much to say that teachers were like the heavens. But Sun Mo was actually teaching students to doubt their teachers?
This was definitely a great disrespect and a humiliation to the etiquette of great teachers.
"If a person wishes to improve, they must constantly maintain a questioning spirit, ponder, and explore!
"Take this spirit gathering rune for example. If you guys understand its theory and framework, you'll be able to know the effect after it is activated. You'll naturally know if my words are correct or not.
"Right now, there are still great teachers who can guide you. But when you guys climb to a region that no one has ever reached before, what will you do?
"You can only rely on yourself, and doubt is the most solid path to success!
"A person's eyes might deceive him, but the principles of nature will never do so!"
Sun Mo explained in a clear voice.
He used the term 'principles of nature', but his original intention was to refer to all sorts of 'theorems and formulas'. The profoundness of the world could all be explained by them.
Seeing Sun Mo standing on the rostrum and speaking frankly with assurance, Cui Shunde revealed a smile of admiration. After that, he turned his head and looked at the teachers and students in the classroom.
Those students and even some great teachers were in a daze. They didn't know what Sun Mo was saying, but it was fine. There would be a day when they would understand what Sun Mo had brought them.
This was a dialectical way of thinking.
It was no wonder that Sun Mo could create spirit runes. Just from his way of thinking, it was already higher than the vast majority of people.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Cui Shunde + 200. Friendly (410/1,000).
When Zou Mei heard Sun Mo's words, it was as if a bolt of lightning had struck her head. She instantly gained a hint of comprehension, but it was also like a specter that floated around. She had no way to grasp it.
"Next, I'll analyze the structure of the spirit gathering rune for everyone!"
As Sun Mo spoke, he started to explain the spirit gathering rune.
The more Zou Mei listened, the brighter her eyes became. That hint of comprehension also became increasingly clear. In the past, she had memorized spirit runes by rote. But now, she started to search for the rules.
A new world opened up before Zou Mei's eyes.
As Sun Mo explained, he observed the expressions of the students. The vast majority of them were at a loss, but Zou Mei's eyes were wide open and she was panting slightly. Perspiration seeped out of her forehead, and her right hand was subconsciously trembling at a fixed frequency.
"Even if only one person managed to comprehend it, it wouldn't be a loss!"
Sun Mo was very satisfied.
Zou Mei's current state could be described with a trendy term. It was called 'flow'. Generally speaking, it was an optimal state when one was completely immersed in something and had no distractions.
After entering such a state, one would become very confident and could even surpass gods!
After Sun Mo finished speaking, he had planned to end things here. But after seeing Zou Mei's state, he decided to reward her.
"I'm going to draw a spirit rune now. Everyone, look carefully!"
Under Sun Mo's brush, a lightning protection rune rapidly took form. In order to let Zou Mei see it clearly, he intentionally slowed down his drawing speed. However, the vast majority of people were still looking at it and were deeply shocked.
"This is also a spirit rune?"
"Why are there such runes?"
"It's so strange, but it's also very beautiful!"
The students couldn't help but whisper to each other.
The wiring method was the same as a circuit board. It brought about a strong sense of industrial beauty, giving the aboriginals of the Nine Provinces a huge visual impact.
Those great teachers who were listening at the side had already forgotten their duties and were fully immersed in this spirit rune.
Cui Shunde took his brush and rapidly recorded it down. His ears pricked up, deeply afraid that he would miss out on any of Sun Mo's words.
The bell signaling the end of class rang out, but no one cared. All of them were staring at Sun Mo as he drew the spirit rune.
Even a fool would know that this was a brand new spirit rune.
BOOM!
As Sun Mo drew the final stroke, the spirit qi tornado erupted once again.
Usually, the students would surely be shocked. But today, they had seen too much and no longer felt anything new.
"So beautiful, I really want it!"
"Teacher Li, you don't specialize in the study of spirit runes. Why do you want this?"
"To collect it!"
The great teachers clamored. If it wasn't for the fact that Sun Mo hadn't announced the end of the class, they would have long since rushed over to ask for this spirit rune.
(As the main examiner, wouldn't it have a bad influence if I asked for a spirit rune from the examinees?)
Cui Shunde felt conflicted. But when he looked at this spirit rune again, he decided that he had to get his hands on it no matter what. If not, he would regret it for a few years.
"This student, you have extraordinary talent in the study of spirit runes. Quickly find a grandmaster and don't delay any further."
Sun Mo activated Divine Sight and saw Zou Mei's data. This was a girl whose talent was even more off the charts compared to Lu Changhe.
Swoosh!
Everyone looked at Zou Mei with envy in their eyes.
One must know that this was Sun Mo's praise. Just this sentence alone would make Zou Mei famous.
"Teacher..."
Zou Mei had an agitated look on her face. She left her seat and rushed toward Sun Mo. She directly knelt down. "Teacher, please accept me as your disciple!"
Zou Mei was completely subdued by Sun Mo's profound knowledge of spirit runes.
Si ~
Upon seeing this scene, the tens of great teachers drew in a cold gasp. Amidst their exclamations, there was also a strong sense of envy. This time around, Sun Mo was going to be in the limelight again.
It was an extremely rare thing for a student to acknowledge a teacher during a lecture.
No one suspected that this was arranged because the students were randomly selected to listen to the lecture. No one knew about this beforehand. Also, no one dared to act recklessly when it came to acknowledging a teacher.
"Major news!"
Li Ruolan pointed the image-recording stone at Sun Mo, waiting for his decision.
