Headmaster Cao, you guys have lost this round! "
As Li Ziqi put down the brush, before Fu Hong could check, Zhuo Long impatiently spoke, "Genius, truly a genius. Being able to decipher spirit runes at such a young age, your future is limitless!"
The Central Province Academy's students didn't cheer. Instead, they looked at Fu Hong. After all, he had to be the one to decide if it was correct or not.
Fu Hong walked toward the table and lowered his head to look at the spirit rune paper. He couldn't help but frown. The lines of the spirit rune were elegant yet orderly.
Other than being accurate, there was also an added sense of beauty.
It was like when students from the Fine Arts Department drew characters. Some were accurate and could tell what they were drawing, but some were not only accurate but also had an added sense of beauty.
The so-called grandmasters were able to let ordinary people who didn't have a good sense of beauty experience a simple drawing.
"How old are you?"
Fu Hong couldn't help but ask.
"How is it? Are you convinced now? "
Zhuo Long laughed complacently. "She is Sun Mo's student and is only 14 years old this year."
Gu Xiuxun glanced at Zhuo Long in puzzlement. (What are you so proud for? She isn't even your personal student.)
"She is indeed a genius!"
Fu Hong nodded, but he smiled an instant later. "Sadly, she didn't complete this spirit rune!"
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Long was unhappy. "She didn't complete it?"
As he spoke, Zhuo Long picked up the spirit rune paper and activated it.
Bzz!
A faint blue light flashed and enveloped Zhuo Long's body.
Hua ~
Gasps of shock rang out.
"Ziqi's spirit rune has been activated. You are telling me that she didn't complete it?"
Zhuo Long mocked, "Headmaster Cao, can you not bring any random person to challenge us? Are you looking down on us or yourself? "
Everyone discussed and looked at Fu Hong doubtfully. This was because a spirit rune competition was so simple. As long as the spirit rune could be activated, it meant that it was a success.
Fu Hong ignored Zhuo Long and looked at Sun Mo instead. "Teacher Sun, you can't be saying that she completed it too, right?"
"Teacher Zhou, this spirit rune is indeed incomplete."
Sun Mo spoke.
"What?"
Zhou Long was astonished. As for Fu Hong, he furrowed his brows. His original intention was that if Sun Mo insisted that Li Ziqi had completed it, he would be able to take out the complete spirit rune to deal with Sun Mo. In the end, Sun Mo actually agreed with his point of view...
"No, it can't be. He only took a glance. How could he possibly complete this spirit rune? Fu Hong, don't scare yourself. "
Fu Hong lifted his chin slightly. At times like this, he just had to pretend to be profound.
"The effect of this spirit rune is to calm one's mind and calm one's heart, suppressing one's churning qi and blood. Ziqi, I'm very satisfied that you can do this within 15 minutes."
Sun Mo looked at the little sunny egg and praised.
Why did he want Li Ziqi to act?
Firstly, it was to give her a chance to sharpen herself. Secondly, it was to clear her name. His eldest disciple was not bad either.
Although he couldn't fight, his brain was excellent.
One must know that Li Ziqi had always blamed herself for not being able to participate in the personal disciples battle and obtain glory for her teacher.
In the crowd, many students revealed shocked expressions.
Usually speaking, after a spirit rune was patched up, one would only know its effect after using it. But Sun Mo actually knew it just by taking a look?
Moreover, looking at Zhou Long and Fu Hong's expressions, Sun Mo was right.
"Ziqi, lay out the paper!"
Sun Mo walked toward the table. He had a brush and paper in his right hand and a wide sleeve in his left. After the little sunny egg laid out the spirit rune paper, he started to draw the ink.
Fu Hong was no longer able to remain calm. He walked over and sighed in his heart after taking a look.
This spirit rune was really beautifully drawn.
A commotion broke out in the surroundings. The students didn't dare to move, but the great teachers didn't have such taboos. They directly walked over to spectate.
Three minutes later.
Boom!
Spirit qi trembled and gushed over rapidly, channeling into the spirit rune.
"It's a spirit qi tornado!"
A student exclaimed in shock.
The appearance of this phenomenon not only meant that Sun Mo had succeeded in drawing it, but the quality of the spirit rune was also extremely high.
"This diagram actually contains two spirit runes. The main effect is violence, which means to raise one's combat strength. However, in such a situation, it would usually be accompanied by agitation in one's emotions, causing one's qi and blood to seethe. In order to prevent the user from losing their rationality, the spirit rune must have a calming effect."
As Sun Mo explained, he activated the spirit rune he had just drawn on Fu Hong's body.
Boom!
Fu Hong's muscles swelled up visibly, causing his teacher attire to bulge. On his exposed skin, green veins and blood vessels could be seen popping up like earthworms.
After a short period of silence, the students of the Central Province Academy immediately started cheering.
"Your great uncle will always be your great uncle!"
"Is Teacher Sun's spirit rune study so amazing?"
"I've made a loss! I've made a loss! Why didn't I attend Teacher Sun's spirit rune lessons in the past? I feel like I've made a loss of one million taels! "
The students chattered. This was especially so for those who majored in spirit runes. They felt so regretful.
The Myriad Daos Academy's great teacher circle fell silent.
Cao Xian turned his head and stared at Fu Hong.
"This... this..."
Fu Hong stuttered. His face was filled with a 'damn' expression. Because he was a spirit rune master, he understood how terrifying Sun Mo was more than others.
This was truly unbelievable!
So, when Sun Mo said that he didn't need two hours, he wasn't putting on an act. He was truly impressive.
"So, when he said 15 minutes, he meant that Ziqi needed 15 minutes to complete the spirit rune!"
Zhou Long was enlightened. After that, he asked curiously, "Teacher Sun, it can't be that you managed to decipher this spirit rune after looking at it, right?"
The others also looked toward Sun Mo.
"No, I only thought of it in passing when Ziqi was deciphering the spirit rune!"
Sun Mo shrugged and looked at Fu Hong with some sympathy.
If it was before the 2-star great teacher examination, Sun Mo wouldn't be able to reach this level. But after experiencing the tempering of Bai Wenzhang's quintuple spirit rune, this spirit rune before him was like a younger brother.
This was a quintuple spirit rune, and it was a very elementary one.
As long as one grasped the rules, it wouldn't be too easy to decipher it.
It was like if you were doing advanced mathematics all along, and someone tested you with a four-step arithmetic problem. Wouldn't it be a waste of time?
Sun Mo spoke in a casual tone, but everyone drew in a cold gasp and looked at him in shock.
What kind of terrifying memory was this?
Everyone had seen it. Sun Mo only took a glance and passed the spirit rune to Ziqi. This meant that Ziqi had memorized it immediately.
Of course, what was even more terrifying than memorizing it was that he had gone through all sorts of trials and errors in his mind, completing the spirit rune.
"I'm impressed!"
Zhou Long clasped his hands and sighed. "Teacher Sun, if there's time in the future, please guide me."
"Teacher Zhou is too polite!"
Sun Mo returned the greeting. After that, he looked toward Fu Hong. "This spirit rune isn't that complicated. The difficulty lies in its train of thought.
"Look at Teacher Zhou, he only used 15 minutes to complete the first spirit rune. You are just digging a hole by using it as a topic!"
"This great teacher, when doing academic research, it's better to be down-to-earth."
At the end of Sun Mo's words, golden light shone from his body. After that, light spots shot out.
Priceless Advice was activated.
"Haha, Teacher Sun is praising me too much."
Zhou Long laughed loudly. Sun Mo was so good at talking and even praised him. For a time, Zhou Long had a good impression of Sun Mo.
After all, he had made a mistake. This time around, he had regained a lot of face.
"Damn, such a large area of effect?"
The great teachers from the Central Province Academy were still fine, but the great teachers from the Myriad Daos Academy had never seen Sun Mo activating Priceless Advice before. When they saw the entire square being filled with light spots, they were a little frightened.
One must know that Sun Mo's Priceless Advice was at the grandmaster-grade. Not only did it have a large area of effect, but it could also last for three days.
After a short period of silence, thunderous applause rang out.
An Xinhui was also clapping agitatedly.
Although Liang Jumu had won the first round, to speak the truth, things like the courtesan puppet were a little tricky. But for Sun Mo's victory, not only did he leave everyone speechless, but he even looked down on Fu Hong with the respect of a great teacher.
The difference in their cultivation realms was obvious.
Fu Hong's lips twitched. No matter what, he was a 2-star great teacher. How could he accept being guided by a junior? However, since the great teacher halo had activated, Fu Hong would have to bow. If not, he would have a reputation of being arrogant and conceited.
"This student has benefited from your guidance!"
Fu Hong bowed.
There was no solution to it. In the great teachers battle, if one lost and the other party activated Priceless Advice, it would mean that the other party was sincerely guiding the loser. In that case, the loser had to express his gratitude with the attitude of a student.
This was the rule of the great teacher world. If Fu Hong didn't do it, his reputation would be tarnished.
"Didn't you say that you would give it to him for free?"
Cao Xian was so depressed that he wanted to cough up blood. If he knew that things would be so bad, he wouldn't have brought Fu Hong here.
Why was Sun Mo so impressive?
Even Priceless Advice was activated. This was simply the most tragic form of mockery.
"Hehe, I knew it!"
Gu Xiuxun was already used to it. If Sun Mo didn't use golden sentences, would he still be called Sun Mo?
"Don't clap. Everyone, sit down. This is just the basics!"
Lu Zhiruo took a bite of the melon with pride. It was so sweet. When she saw Li Ziqi returning, she passed a piece over. "Have some melon!"
"Not eating!"
Li Ziqi's heart was filled with gratitude toward Sun Mo because she understood her teacher's motive. He was giving her a chance to display her talent.
Her teacher was so gentle!
"Headmaster Cao, do you have any other guidance?"
Sun Mo asked.
Ding!
"Congratulations, you've obtained a total of + 11289 favorable impression points. Please continue to work hard."
Upon hearing the system's notification, Sun Mo's heart was bubbling with joy. Because there were too many new students, as long as he performed well, he would be able to earn a lot of favorable impression points.
"Teacher Sun, take a break!"
An Xinhui hurriedly spoke, telling Sun Mo to stop while he was ahead. Right now, he was the golden signboard of the Central Province Academy, and there mustn't be any stains on his name.
"Headmaster An, you are thinking too much."
Wang Su shook his head. With a trump card like Sun Mo, he should use it more. The one who should be worried was Cao Xian. How headstrong must he be to keep suppressing Sun Mo?
Cao Xian suppressed his depression. He turned his head and called out a name. "Teacher Fan, I'll have to trouble you."
An old man with white hair stepped out from the crowd. "Teacher Sun, I'm Fan Wenbin. I'm proficient in the study of spirit runes and wish to spar with Teacher Sun!"
An Xinhui immediately cast an aggrieved glance at Wang Su. Fan Wenbin, a 5-star great teacher, a spirit rune grandmaster, the number one expert in spirit runes in the Myriad Daos Academy.
"Alright, Headmaster Cao is truly headstrong!"
Wang Su was helpless as well. This fellow was determined to ruin Sun Mo's reputation. He even used a great killing weapon like Fan Wenbin.
