No matter how rare something was, it would lose its novelty after people saw it for a long time.
The genie was definitely a 'spiritual beast' that would shock people. This was especially so for the ancient massage technique it performed. It was profound and exquisite. However, no one would be able to endure the boredom of watching it for three hours straight.
Sun Mo took the chance while he was treating Zhou Qiao and started to teach Li Ziqi on the spot, explaining the various important points of the bone setting technique and circulation technique.
Gu Xiuxun listened at the side while feeling grateful for Sun Mo's generosity.
Xie Cang and Mei Ziyu left the room to avoid arousing suspicion.
"It's already been three hours. Can you do it?"
Zhang Ji no longer had the demeanor of a great teacher. He was too embarrassed to peek, so he pressed his ear against the door and listened to the movements inside.
"Cough cough. Zhang shi, watch your image!"
Xie Cang reminded.
"I'm worried about Zhou Qiao. Don't let Sun Mo treat him badly!"
As time passed by, Zhang Ji increasingly felt that Sun Mo might have messed things up. This made him feel both happy and guilty.
Because if she thought that way, she would be letting down her good friend and Zhou Qiao.
Sigh!
This was human nature!
Zhang Ji sighed ruefully. But no matter what, he had won the match today. Sigh, Sun Mo was also doing his best for Zhou Qiao. There was no need for him to mock him.
As for the diamond pill, he didn't believe that Sun Mo would still have the face to ask for it.
In the end, Zhang Ji wasn't an evil person. He was just a little petty and felt heartache for the diamond pill. This was why he kept questioning Sun Mo.
Four hours passed and night fell. Many of the waiting examinees started to leave. After all, they still had to participate in the Great Teachers Battle tomorrow.
"Isn't this treatment process taking too long?"
"All the bones in Zhou Qiao's body are broken. I think one day of treatment is considered short!"
"Let's not wait any longer. I reckon that it's more likely to fail."
The remaining examinees discussed among themselves.
When Xie Cang heard this, he couldn't remain calm. Just when he was pondering if he should knock on the door to ask Sun Mo, the door opened.
Creak!
Li Ziqi's little head popped out. "Teacher Xie, the treatment is over. It went very smoothly. You can come in now."
Hua!
Hearing this, the people in front of the door immediately became excited.
"Very smoothly? Does that mean Zhou Qiao has recovered? "
"It's fake, right?"
"But all the bones in his body are broken. How long will it take to cure him? Is God's Hands really so terrifying? "
The remaining examinees couldn't help but push forward, wanting to enter the room to take a look. Most of them were graduates of Jixia Learning Palace, and there were a few who came from the same hometown as Xie Cang. They could be considered to have a rather close relationship, which was why they had waited until now.
"Shh!"
Li Ziqi placed her fair index finger before her lips. "Teachers, please be quiet. Zhou Qiao needs to recuperate!"
Everyone immediately shut their mouths.
"Thank you for your concern. Please go back and rest. Don't delay tomorrow's assessment!"
Xie Cang was a very considerate person. He bowed to the surroundings and only turned around to enter his room after expressing his gratitude.
Zhang Ji didn't even think about it and followed in.
Mei Ziyu hesitated. She wanted to enter, but she didn't have Sun Mo's invitation.
Li Ziqi was intelligent. When she saw Xie Cang's attitude toward Mei Ziyu, she knew that this girl with long black hair definitely had an extraordinary background. Moreover, her teacher also treated her very well. Hence, she invited Xie Cang.
"Teacher Mei, please come in!"
"En!"
Mei Ziyu nodded and walked in. She even closed the door for Li Ziqi in passing.
"Teacher!"
Zhou Qiao was lying on the bed. When he saw Xie Cang entering, he struggled to sit up and greet him. During this period of time when he was injured, his teacher had been taking good care of him, spending a lot of money and favors to invite many people to treat him.
Zhou Qiao had seen all of this in his heart.
Honestly speaking, if the personal disciples of other great teachers were to suffer such injuries, there was a 90% chance that they would give up. It was because the price to pay for treatment was too great. Moreover, even if they were cured, there would most probably be hidden injuries left behind and their future accomplishments would be limited.
"Don't move recklessly."
Xie Cang rushed to the bed. "Quickly lie down!"
"Teacher Sun?"
Xie Cang had an agitated look on his face. Zhou Qiao could actually move now? This was a good sign. Moreover, his body was only slightly swollen.
One must know that before this, Zhou Qiao was swollen like a sausage that had been soaked in rainwater for tens of days. Moreover, because his bones were shattered, his body was heaving up and down irregularly.
"He has been cured. After resting for a period of time, he will be the same as before."
Sun Mo consoled, "Don't worry, there's no harm to his talent."
"Is that really the case?"
Zhang Ji exclaimed in shock.
Sun Mo couldn't be bothered with him, but Gu Xiuxun and Li Ziqi were unhappy.
"What do you mean by this? Are you hoping that Zhou Qiao will be crippled? "
Gu Xiuxun questioned.
"No... it's just that..."
Zhang Ji didn't know how to explain. Moreover, he wasn't blind. Seeing Zhou Qiao's condition, he knew that Zhou Qiao had gotten a lot better. Moreover, Xie Cang would definitely look for a famous doctor to do a check-up in the future. Therefore, if Sun Mo were to lie, he would be courting death instead.
"Teacher Zhang, I've really recovered. I can feel it!"
As Zhou Qiao spoke, he even stretched out his right arm and made a punching action.
"Quickly stop. Don't you want your hand anymore?"
Zhang Ji jumped in fright. He was also concerned about Zhou Qiao.
"He can already do some light exercises now. It'll be beneficial to his recovery!"
Sun Mo explained.
Bones that had been reconnected needed an appropriate amount of exercise to be able to be reconnected.
"Teacher Sun, thank you so much!"
As Xie Cang spoke, he knelt down again.
There was really no way for him to repay such a favor.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Xie Cang + 1,000. Respect (1,602/10000).
"Teacher Xie's words are too serious."
Sun Mo quickly helped Xie Cang up. "If you really feel bad, why don't you treat me to a meal after the examination is over?"
"Of course!"
Xie Cang wiped the corners of his eyes, but his tears kept flowing out.
"Teacher Sun, I, Zhou Qiao, will never forget your grace of rebirth!"
Earlier, Zhou Qiao had already thanked Sun Mo and contributed 1,000 favorable impression points. Now that he saw his teacher thanking him, he spoke up again.
"Take a rest!"
Sun Mo beckoned Li Ziqi with his hand.
The little sunny egg understood. She took out two medicine packets from her bag and passed them to Sun Mo.
"These are the giant medicine packet and spring water beauty medicine packet. They are a medicinal bath formula unique to our Central Province Academy. When soaked in the water, it can heal injuries and strengthen the body. After he rests for two hours, you guys can use them together to consolidate the healing effects."
Sun Mo introduced.
"Thank you, Teacher Sun!"
Xie Cang didn't stand on ceremony. In any case, he wouldn't be able to repay the favor he owed.
"Then we'll take our leave."
Sun Mo clasped his fists and left the room.
Gu Xiuxun glared at Zhang Ji but didn't say anything in the end. She then followed Sun Mo and left.
Zhang Ji felt very awkward.
"Teacher Sun is very magnanimous. Moreover, God Hands are so terrifying. Brother Zhang Ji, it's best not to offend him!"
"Also, Teacher Gu, he didn't like you at first, but in order to let Zhou Qiao rest, he didn't find trouble with you. Shouldn't you feel ashamed of your inferiority?"
Xie Cang persuaded in a low voice and went out to send them off.
"Thank you, everyone, for your concern. It's all thanks to Teacher Sun's God Hands that my disciple is safe and sound. He can continue to cultivate in the future!"
Xie Cang's voice rang out outside the door. Firstly, it was to thank everyone. Secondly, it was to help Sun Mo spread his name. This was the only way he could think of to repay Sun Mo.
Hua ~
Gasps of surprise rang out.
Zhang Ji gritted his teeth. He knew that Xie Cang's words were so piercing to the ears, but it was for his own good. A person like Sun Mo was destined to be successful and have a good reputation. Zhang Ji was destined to be suppressed since he was in the same era as Sun Mo. If he didn't apologize now while Sun Mo's reputation wasn't high, he wouldn't even have the qualifications to do so in the future.
One must know that after Sun Mo was strong enough, even if Sun Mo didn't care about him, there would be plenty of bootlickers who would deal with him in order to curry favor with Sun Mo.
Moreover, Sun Mo's actions were worthy of his admiration. Hence, he chased after Sun Mo and shouted.
"Teacher Sun, it's my fault for being short-sighted. I didn't know how powerful God Hands are. Please forgive me if I offended you earlier!"
As Zhang Ji spoke, he placed his hands on the sides of his legs and bent his waist 90 degrees, bowing respectfully.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Zhang Ji + 100. Prestige connection unlocked. Friendly (100/1,000).
Gu Xiuxun turned her head and her lips twitched. "Sincere?"
"Teacher Gu, can you spare me this once?"
Zhang Ji bitterly smiled.
"Teacher Zhang, I understand your thoughts. It's understandable that you feel heartache for that diamond pill."
Sun Mo turned his head. "But sometimes, even a saint-tier alchemy pill can't be exchanged for an opportunity. Do you know why I'm willing to help Teacher Xie?"
"I'm willing to listen to your guidance!"
Zhang Ji clasped his hands.
"Other than being concerned for Zhou Qiao, I'm also convinced by Teacher Xie's sincerity. Let alone a diamond pill, I believe he'd be willing to use his life."
Sun Mo praised.
"Teacher Sun is praising me too much!"
Xie Cang felt ashamed. In truth, he was such a person. Although he didn't say it, he had already decided that as long as Sun Mo was in trouble, regardless of whether Sun Mo said it or not, he'd be the first to go through water and tread on fire.
The system's evaluation of Xie Cang as a good person wasn't random.
"I've benefited from your guidance!"
Zhang Ji felt ashamed. Why did he work so hard to maintain his friendship with Xie Cang? Wasn't it because of Xie Cang's character?
"Everyone has seen Teacher Xie's actions. He's truly a role model for our generation!"
The other examinees immediately nodded to express their approval. At the same time, they felt even more admiration for Sun Mo. By right, he should be the most dazzling person right now, but he wasn't arrogant at all. Instead, he flattered Xie Cang.
There was nothing else to say about his behavior.
"I'm ashamed to death!"
Xie Cang bowed, feeling even more favorable impression of Sun Mo in his heart. This was truly the demeanor of a great teacher.
Hence, he contributed another 500 favorable impression points.
Mei Ziyu stood in the crowd and watched as Sun Mo left. Her favorable impression of him increased greatly, and she also felt even more interested in him.
"He's really cured?"
"The God Hands are actually so terrifying?"
"It wouldn't be too late to come to a conclusion after seeing the actual effects!"
"Then you'll have to wait for a very long time. Zhou Qiao will definitely need to recuperate for a period of time. He definitely won't be able to participate in the student battle this time around."
Everyone discussed among themselves and then dispersed.
In the room, only Xie Cang and Zhou Qiao were left.
Zhou Qiao looked at the few strands of white hair on Xie Cang's temples and couldn't hold it in anymore. He directly knelt down and apologized verbally. "I've troubled Teacher during this period of time!"
"It's good that you've recovered!"
Xie Cang cried tears of joy. "Alright, quickly take a rest. Let's go take a bath. The medicinal packet that Grandmaster Sun gave us must be very powerful."
At the same time, Sun Mo asked the system for a reward.
