Bai Shuang was a top graduate of the Skyraise Academy, and Sun Mo had defeated her fair and square. In the personal disciples battle, Sun Mo's students were also ranked higher.
One could say that Sun Mo would definitely enter the top ten. It would depend on his actual ranking.
"The overall ranking is out. It will be announced in the next two days."
Mei Yazhi smiled. Given her status, it was very normal for her to know internal news in advance.
"Mother, how much is it? Quickly tell me! "
Mei Ziyu urged.
"Number six!"
He was standing in the middle, no more, no less.
When Mei Yazhi saw Sun Mo calmly drinking his tea after hearing the ranking, she couldn't help but silently praise him. As expected, he was very calm.
On the other hand, Mei Ziyu was unhappy.
"Why isn't he in the top three?"
Mei Ziyu grumbled, "Who was the one who decided the rankings? Teacher Sun's three disciples are in the top three. No one has done this even in the past 100 years. "
"Ziyu, this ranking is already very high."
Mei Yazhi explained.
The Great Teachers Hero Rankings this time around were the most dazzling rising stars in the great teacher world below 30 years old. How old was Sun Mo?
He was 22 years old and was just a newbie who had just graduated for over a year.
Looking at his opponents, let alone the top ten, even the top twenty were top graduates of the Nine Greats.
As for the people in the top ten, other than becoming the top ranker in the examinations, their students had also become the champion of the personal disciples battle before.
In terms of talent, the top ten weren't bad. In terms of teaching students, they had all become the champion. In terms of teaching experience and ability, they had already joined the profession for a few years and were even teaching in the Nine Greats. How could Sun Mo compare?
Sun Mo could be said to have obtained the recognition of almost all the members of the judging panel for his current ranking. It was already sufficient for him to be proud.
"Ziyu, you can't just look at the ranking. You have to look at the age as well. If the ranking is limited to those below 25 years old, Sun Mo would be number one."
As Mei Yazhi spoke, she looked at Sun Mo and discovered that he was still very calm. It was like her praise was directed at someone else.
"Teacher Sun, congratulations on becoming number six on the Great Teachers Hero Rankings!"
Mei Ziyu congratulated him.
"Thank you!"
Sun Mo replied with a smile.
"Sun Mo, actually, your ranking can be a little higher. However, your qualifications and platform are simply too inferior."
Mei Yazhi felt very regretful.
The great teacher world didn't seem to care about one's background, but when the headmasters were recruiting great teachers, they would still look at the schools they graduated from.
Sun Mo graduated from the Songyang Academy. That was a'D 'grade school that had no sense of existence at all. Moreover, the place he was working at now was the Central Province Academy. Although his ancestors were wealthy, that was all in the past.
Those who calculated the overall rankings would also take these factors into account.
Simply speaking, Sun Mo was a talented person, but the platform he chose and the connections he had would definitely restrict his development.
Sun Mo fell silent. He didn't expect that the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces would also talk about this. However, he soon felt at ease. After all, in the modern era, he had already seen the vicious beatings of society.
Some companies said that they would treat all applicants equally, focusing on their abilities and not on their educational background. However, when the resumes were submitted, those that were not from Jiaotong university would be rejected. Even 211 was not enough.
There are even some employers where you don't even have the qualifications to submit your resume.
Reality was cruel.
If Sun Mo graduated from one of the Nine Greats, his fame would be even greater, and his social circle would be even higher as well.
"Sun Mo, in the past, you didn't have a choice. But now, you have many choices."
Mei Yazhi didn't go overboard.
Her meaning was very simple. If he came to Jixia Learning Palace and brought the halo of this school with him, Sun Mo's status would rise by a few levels.
Moreover, the most important thing was that his connections would be wider.
At the very least, the great teachers and graduates from Jixia Learning Palace would naturally be allies. And because of their abilities, all of them would occupy more important positions in society and control more resources.
To put it bluntly, the headmaster of a'D 'grade school would smile happily just because there were a few royal descendants. But what about the Nine Greats?
If you were to eat in the canteen, the person sitting next to you might be a king or princess or the son or daughter of the richest person in a certain city.
"Many thanks for Teacher Mei's great kindness, but I still prefer to stay in the Central Province Academy!"
Sun Mo rejected.
With Mei Yazhi's care, Sun Mo's life wouldn't be too bad even if he went to Jixia Learning Palace. But as a human, he should have some goals, right?
For example, to make the Central Province Academy the strongest school in the Nine Provinces.
If in the past, Sun Mo didn't have any feelings for the Central Province Academy, but now, he already felt a little reluctance.
Getting rid of the logistics department head Yang Cai, suppressing Zhang Hanfu, allowing the school to get rid of its financial crisis and walk on the right track, as well as personally building the Darkness Illusion Pagoda...
All of these were done by Sun Mo personally.
"No matter how good Jixia Learning Palace is, it belongs to others!"
Sun Mo sighed ruefully.
...
Two days later, it was the Star Awarding Ceremony.
When Sun Mo's great teacher attire had an additional star on his chest, it represented that he had officially become a 2-star great teacher recognized by the Saint Gate.
His social status increased by several times.
Sun Mo's three personal students were also eye-catching. In the secondary rankings of the Greencloud Rankings, they were directly ranked in the top five.
This secondary ranking recorded young men and women below 16 years old. It was basically ranked according to their potential. After all, young people changed every year and grew very quickly.
However, the popularity of the Greencloud Rankings wasn't very high.
There was no solution to it. Each of the things Sun Mo had done was worthy of people discussing enthusiastically. Hence, he had snatched away the limelight of these new talents.
Sun Mo rejected many people's invitations to banquets. Early the next morning, he sat in a carriage and began his journey back to Jinling.
The student recruitment meet was about to begin. Sun Mo had to recruit two students during this period of time. Time was very tight.
Ding!
"Congratulations on becoming the top ranker of the 2-star great teacher examination. As your performance is extremely outstanding, you are rewarded with a great teacher emblem and three mysterious treasure chests!"
The system didn't say a long word, but the rewards were extremely good.
Sun Mo patted Lu Zhiruo's head. "Open the chests!"
Light flowed.
Ding!
"Congratulations on obtaining an illustrated handbook of rare species in the Darkness Continent. Plant section. Rarity grade: S, 20 types. Proficiency level: elementary-grade."
Sun Mo's spirits stirred. After opening two Divine Force Fruits consecutively, was the mysterious treasure chest finally going to give out some good stuff?
20 types of rare plants represented that Sun Mo could expand the map of botany in the Nine Provinces by a little. If there were medicinal plants among them, he'd make a huge fortune.
"Continue!"
Sun Mo instructed. Three seconds later, he couldn't help but smile. It was because a golden skill book was floating before him.
In this era, what was the most valuable?
It was definitely knowledge!
Ding!
"Congratulations on obtaining a peerless-grade heaven-tier cultivation art, [Burning Moon Heart Sutra]. Rarity grade: S. Proficiency level: elementary-grade!"
It was actually a cultivation art?
Sun Mo was curious and checked the introduction.
The Burning Moon Heart Sutra was said to have been created by the Moon God who had fallen to the mortal world. This cultivation art absorbed the power of the moon as the source and supplemented it with spirit qi for cultivation.
Because it absorbed the power of the moon, this cultivation art was a cultivation art that could allow beginners to possess extremely high battle prowess in a short period of time. However, it would be weak in the middle stage, and at the later stage, it would be a bottleneck step by step. If one wasn't extremely talented, they wouldn't be able to cultivate it to the extreme.
Note: This cultivation art's prowess is the strongest at night, especially when the moon is hanging high in the sky. It's the strongest during the full moon of mid-autumn.
Sun Mo looked at the cultivation art's introduction and suddenly understood why this cultivation art wasn't at the saint-tier. It was because it didn't have a major late-stage.
To youngsters, it was better not to touch this cultivation art. Otherwise, they might develop a character that liked ease and hated hard work. But to those older cultivators who didn't have much future, this was equivalent to a top-grade cultivation art.
Quick mastery and quick effects. That was enough!
As for the late-stage?
Please, these people didn't have any late-stage cultivation arts to begin with.
Sun Mo subconsciously thought of Han Xi. It was a pity that he wasn't able to recruit her into the Central Province Academy. There was also that Liu Tong. He wasn't young anymore and could also cultivate it.
"Learn it!"
Sun Mo was very satisfied.
Saint-tier cultivation arts were too valuable. Sun Mo would definitely not impart them to others casually. However, there was no problem if it was a peerless-grade heaven-tier cultivation art.
One mustn't underestimate the Burning Moon Heart Sutra. This cultivation art could already be considered as the ultimate divine art of those schools in small places.
The rarity grade was S, indicating that there weren't many people who had grasped this cultivation art. If there weren't many, it meant that the value of this cultivation art was very high.
If Sun Mo had obtained this cultivation art earlier, he could have used it to headhunt Han Xi.
As the skill book shattered into motes of light and shot into Sun Mo's forehead, a bright moon appeared in his mind, changing between waxing and waning.
A moment later, Sun Mo finished learning it and sank into contemplation.
Although he didn't plan to cultivate this cultivation art in depth, as long as he learned it, it would be a great expansion to his horizons.
After fully comprehending the Burning Moon Heart Sutra, Sun Mo opened the last treasure chest.
It was another skill book!
After Sun Mo saw the name on the cover, his smile widened even further.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained the great teacher halo, Gushing Thoughts. Proficiency level: Elementary-grade. After activating it, the duration will be 10 minutes."
"Note: When you're in the midst of learning and composing, you can use this halo. It will allow your hearing and vision to become clearer, and your thoughts will be clearer. It's compatible with the 'Ocean of Questions' battle tactic. The effect will be even better when consumed!"
The system explained.
Sun Mo's eyes brightened. This was good stuff.
Complete Focus allowed a person to fully immerse themselves in doing something, forgetting to eat, drink, and sleep. Encyclopedic Knowledge, or even the perfect version of Retentive Memory, allowed a person to be in a good mental state when learning. Their memory would be high, and it would be very helpful when it came to memorizing knowledge.
But when it came to creativity, it wouldn't work. For example, writing essays or solving math problems. Because their thoughts wouldn't flow smoothly, it would be useless even if they did it for an entire day.
Thoughts gushed forth and perfectly solved this problem.
After activating this halo, the student's brain would immediately become better. They would be in the state of doing whatever they wanted to do when the feeling came.
It could be understood that when a person needed a burst of inspiration, using Gushing Thoughts would greatly increase their work efficiency.
"If I had this halo when I was in No. 2 High School, all the students in my class would definitely be great authors."
Sun Mo revealed a look of reminiscence.
What were students most afraid of in language test papers? First, reading comprehension. After all, this was a terrifying question that even the original author wouldn't be able to get full marks for.
Second, writing essays. Many students would rather starve for an entire day than write an essay of 800 words because it was too difficult.
Right now, under the halo of Gushing Thoughts, it wouldn't be a problem for students to write 800 words even if they couldn't write famous essays like 'Killing a Person in Ten Steps' or 'A Thousand Li Invincible'.
When Sun Mo was on his way back, the Central Province Academy and Myriad Daos Academy's student recruitment meet for this year started at the same time.
