The people in the surroundings fell silent as they watched Liu Yi flying into a rage.
"Alright, don't be angry anymore. It's embarrassing. Calm down and try again next year!"
The examiner persuaded.
He had seen such scenes too many times and could understand this examinee's mentality.
This was a young man with aspirations. If he had no hope and was directly eliminated, it was one thing. But in the end, he fell at a place where he was just a step away from success.
Honestly speaking, it was too regretful. If the examiner was in his shoes, he would feel depressed as well.
After becoming a 2-star great teacher, the most direct benefit was that their status in the school would rise.
If 1-star great teachers were small fries, then 2-star great teachers would be like young sharks. They already possessed extremely strong competitiveness and their words before the headmaster would carry weight.
Of course, the most important thing was the change in salary. The income of a 2-star great teacher would at least double. Also, it would be easier for them to apply for research funding from the school.
Sadly, all these were gone as the student was defeated.
"This kind of failure and regret is also a kind of growth. Remember it and try again next year!"
The examiner encouraged.
"Teacher!"
# 10 called out, feeling very remorseful.
"Shut up, don't call me!"
Liu Yi roared, "Do you know how difficult this year's examination is? I walked step by step until now, but in the end, I fell in the personal disciples battle. I can't accept this! "
His words resonated with many examinees.
(That's right. Based on my results, I would have long since passed if it was in the previous years. Yet, I encountered the increased difficulty this year. I'm truly unlucky.)
"As expected, I was too lenient toward you guys!"
Whenever Liu Yi thought of how he wouldn't have the chance to go to the 'A' grade or the Nine Greats, his heart would throb in pain.
# 21 didn't have much strength left. He directly sat on the stage and panted heavily. Now that he had rested, he started to roar.
"Oh yeah, I won. Teacher, I won!"
# 21's teacher hugged his personal student and had an agitated expression. He kept on rubbing his student's hair and patting his back.
"You won! Right, you won! "
"That's awesome!"
"Thank you for helping me obtain the title of a 2-star great teacher. Didn't you want to go to Shun Donglai to have a sumptuous meal? I'll go all out and treat you to a sumptuous meal. "
Number 21's teacher cried tears of joy. This was the happiest day of his life.
"Forget it. Shun Dong Lai's dishes are too expensive. A single meal would cost me two months of my salary!"
Number 21 rejected.
"Even if I have to eat half a year's salary, I still have to go!"
Number 21's teacher carried him on his back and left the arena, making way for the next round. "This won't do. After the doctor treats your wounds, we'll immediately go for a feast!"
Seeing his opponent happily discussing where to celebrate, Liu Yi, as the loser, slapped No. 10's face again. Then, ignoring him, he turned around and left.
"Hey!"
The examiner couldn't bear to watch any longer.
"What? Are you going to interfere with me disciplining my personal disciple? "
Usually, Liu Yi would not show such a bad attitude towards the examiner. But today, he was so angry that he was hysterical.
In truth, Liu Yi felt very sullen. He really wanted to fight. Either he killed someone, or he was beaten to death.
"Ugh!"
The examiner was stumped because a personal teacher could be considered half a father. No matter how he disciplined his personal disciple, no one had the right to interfere.
"T... teacher, I'll definitely win next year!"
No. 10 wiped his tears and shouted a guarantee.
"What's the use of winning next year? I've already failed the first time! "
Liu Yi roared in anger.
Actually, Sun Mo didn't have the right to interfere in such matters. But when he saw a young man crying so sadly, he still spoke up.
"This great teacher, look at how sad he is crying and how much he blames himself. Actually, he feels even worse than you when he loses."
"Why do you care?!"
Liu Yi opened his mouth and roared back.
Swish!
The spectators looked over. When they discovered that the person who spoke was Sun Mo, they all felt that there would be a good show to watch.
"Calm down first!"
Sun Mo consoled.
The papaya girl looked at Liu Yi and took out a piece of melon. "Eat some melon!"
When Liu Yi saw that it was Sun Mo, he started. But after that, a wave of depression and anger surged up his head.
"I'll eat your mom!"
"You're a supernova, a genius that everyone pays attention to. It's naturally easy for you to say that. If it was you who was just a step away from breaking through but ended up falling to your death, wouldn't you be angry?
"Do you know how difficult it is for ordinary people like us to get a good opportunity? My grandfather went to an 'A' grade school to apply for a job, but in the end, they didn't even look at his research results. When they asked him about his examination results and found out that he didn't pass the 3-star great teacher examination on his first try, he was directly rejected. "
Liu Yi's eyes were red. In his heart, his grandfather was the most impressive and had excellent research results in the study of spirit runes. But in the end, because he didn't pass the exam on his first try, he didn't even get a chance to recommend himself and was rejected.
His grandfather was disappointed for many years. Even when he died, he was still mumbling about how he didn't become a great teacher in an 'A' grade school and died with regrets.
Before the memorial tablet, Liu Yi swore that he would definitely become a great teacher in an 'A' grade school so that his loving grandfather could rest in peace.
But now, he couldn't do it.
Everyone fell silent. Everyone had heard of this unwritten rule before.
The examiner also didn't know how to persuade him. Who didn't want to enter a famous school? But there were only so many spots, and there would always be someone who would be eliminated.
"Honestly speaking, I don't hate how cruel the competition is. What I hate is that they don't even give me a chance to compete. Why must we deny our entire lives just because of a single failure?"
Liu Yi roared in anger.
Everyone felt some sympathy in their hearts. After that, they looked toward Sun Mo.
"Teacher Sun, don't persuade him anymore. You are a genius, but you don't understand the bitterness of ordinary people like us!"
"21 years old, a year after graduation, and he's already applying for the 2-star great teacher examination. Haha, I'm so envious!"
"Teacher Sun, just go and enjoy the happiness of being a winner in life. There's no need for you to worry about us losers!"
Some of the older examinees who had already taken the exam a few times felt unhappy and envious toward Sun Mo. Hence, they took this chance to rebuke him.
"Teacher!"
Papaya Lu Zhiruo felt a little worried. She grabbed Sun Mo's clothes.
"I naturally don't have the qualifications to interfere. I just want to say something fair. Earlier, 90% of the reason why he lost was because of you."
Sun Mo wasn't angry.
"During the last three minutes, the situation was extremely tense. Actually, anyone could have won, but you were anxious. Hence, you kept shouting and giving guidance, causing your student to panic even more.
"Look at your opponent. I've observed him before, and he was very anxious as well. However, he didn't say anything. I don't feel that he couldn't see the crux of this match, so why didn't he say anything?
"Because this is a battle between personal students. He chose to trust his student. Even if he lost, he would accept it."
Just when Sun Mo finished speaking, he heard the system's notification.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Li Tie + 100. Friendly (220/1,000).
Swoosh!
Everyone looked at Sun Mo in puzzlement. Was this nonsense? After that, they looked toward the teacher of # 21, waiting for him to give an explanation.
Li Tie looked at Sun Mo, feeling a little shocked and impressed in his heart. As expected of a supernova. His mental state was completely seen through by Sun Mo.
"Isn't that so? Why don't you say something?"
Someone urged.
"Yes!"
Li Tie nodded. "Teacher Sun is right. Since they have fought to such an extent, regardless of victory or defeat, I'll feel proud for my student.
"If he wins, this will become the most precious experience of his life. Whenever he encounters a barrier that he can't cross, I hope that he can recall today's perseverance, recall today's victory, and use it as his motivation to continue moving forward. If he loses, I will encourage him and work hard together with him to grow together!"
As Li Tie spoke, he rubbed his student's head.
"Teacher!"
# 10 felt embarrassed.
Looking at the harmonious relationship between the two of them, many examinees felt envious. They also started to ponder over his words. If they encountered a similar situation in the future, what should they do?
Pak! Pak! Pak!
A few examiners applauded. This was the true mental state of a great teacher!
Sun Mo was also applauding. From the interaction between Li Tie and his student, he had learned some things and started to reflect on his past.
What should the relationship between a teacher and a student be like?
Ding!
"Congratulations, your comprehension of the title of great teacher has increased by one. Reward: 1x silver treasure chest!"
Sun Mo started. This was possible?
Gradually, the sound of applause rang out. Very soon, it shocked the surroundings, causing the people in the surroundings to look over.
"You're praising me too much! You're praising me too much! "
Li Tie pressed his palms together and kept on being humble. "This is what my teacher taught me. Actually, I'm still very lacking when it comes to teaching students. In terms of excellence, Teacher Sun is still the best. He can even see through the battle situation and my mental state!"
With regards to this point, everyone no longer doubted it.
Like a dog in front of the door, One-Vote Sun truly lived up to his reputation.
"This great teacher, your student really wanted to win and get the 2-star title for you. Although he lost, he did his best. The two slaps you gave him earlier actually made him feel more despair and pain compared to losing the competition."
Sun Mo sighed.
He could tell that # 10 admired Liu Yi a lot.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yi turned his head and saw his personal student looking at him. His personal student was like a puppy that was about to be abandoned, waiting for his forgiveness. His wound was bleeding and he was coughing, but he couldn't be bothered to deal with it.
Hence, Liu Yi's heart thumped.
"Teacher, I'm sorry!"
# 10 knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily.
"I also know that I'm in the wrong, but I couldn't help it!"
Liu Yi cried. After that, he gritted his teeth and rushed to # 10's side. "I'm in the wrong, I shouldn't have hit you!"
"Teacher, you weren't in the wrong. I'm too trash."
# 10 cried. But when he saw that his teacher wasn't angry anymore, his worried heart also calmed down.
"I will reflect on myself. I'll come back next year to get the 2-star title again!"
Liu Yi smiled and hugged his student's shoulder.
"This teacher, I feel that there's a need to say something!"
Sun Mo spoke.
Liu Yi hurriedly got up and tidied his great teacher robe. After that, he bowed with his hands clasped. "Teacher Sun is too polite. My name is Liu Yi. If you have anything to say, feel free to ask me!"
