The scarab decided to be a coward for now. After it recovered its strength, it would break free from the restrictions of the contract and kill everyone in this city, turning them into mummies and building an undead army. After that, it would sweep through the world and return to Egypt.
In truth, compared to resentment and anger, the scarab felt more joy and lingering fear in its heart.
It had been too long. It had been over 100,000 years.
During this period, the beetle statue had landed in the hands of many people. Some people understood its value and tried to decipher it. This would inevitably cause damage to the statue.
To the scarab, the statue was the carrier of its soul. If the statue was destroyed, it would die as well unless it signed a soul contract with a spirit controller.
However, the soul contract it bore was simply too high-level. Those spirit controllers had no way to decipher it. It was even very difficult for them to sense its soul.
Until now, when the scarab was about to despair, it encountered Sun Mo.
"As expected, I'm a divine bug protected by the heavens."
After the scarab sighed, it was filled with anticipation for the future. (After I eat that human and regain my freedom, I can return home.)
(I wonder what my hometown has become!)
...
When the scarab was scheming against Sun Mo, Sun Mo was also thinking about how to completely subdue it.
The art of spiritual control was just so terrifying, mysterious, and dangerous. Others always felt that it was too cool for spirit controllers to summon spiritual beasts to do battle.
However, they didn't know that spirit controllers might be devoured by spiritual beasts and become their puppets.
"Let's first find out what capabilities Old Beetle has to be able to be a guardian and guard the pharaoh's tomb. This fellow should be very powerful, right?
"Oh right, even if I can't bring the treasures out, this fellow should have read the precious books in the tomb, right? If I can get it to spit out a few saint-tier cultivation arts, I'd have profited greatly. "
Just when Sun Mo was contemplating, the victor of the battle on the stage was decided.
Bang!
Jin Mujie knocked Duan Yingmei off the stage.
The students of the Central Province Academy immediately cheered. This was especially so for the guys. Their cheers were extremely loud.
In the school, the popularity of these teachers among the male students couldn't be compared to Jin Mujie. This was the killing power of a young married woman.
Jin Mujie's lessons had always been packed to the brim.
Many students would go to listen even if they didn't understand. This was especially so when they were physically and mentally fatigued. They felt that just by looking at Teacher Jin and listening to her voice, their bodies and minds would be healed.
"Thanks for letting me win!"
Jin Mujie clasped her fists.
"Cough cough!"
Duan Yingmei coughed out a mouthful of blood, and her countenance turned gloomy. It wasn't because she had lost the competition. After all, victory and defeat were common occurrences. Moreover, Jin Mujie was also a famous genius. It wasn't embarrassing to lose to her.
Duan Yingmei was depressed because she realized that she could no longer break through the bottleneck. Her future growth was already very slow.
This meant that ten years later, the gap between him and Jin Mujie would be even greater.
"Is this all I can do for the rest of my life?"
Duan Yingmei was disappointed.
What is the saddest thing in this world?
Was it because he was lazy and did not work hard, wasting his talent?
No, he was obviously very diligent, but because of his lack of aptitude and opportunities, he was unable to climb to the peak and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the mountains.
"Duan shi..."
Headmaster Cao's tone was rather displeased. "Why don't you give it a try?"
"I've tried my best."
Duan Yingmei shook her head. Even if they were to fight to the point where both sides were injured, she would be the one to lose first. Why bother?
"Jin Mujie is indeed very strong!"
"We can't continue like this. Although their overall strength is inferior to ours, they have a few top-notch great teachers. If they keep fighting, we won't be able to gain any advantage."
"Before this, we should have set a restriction. Each person is only allowed to fight once!"
The great teachers of the Myriad Daos Academy finally realized the reason why they had been suppressed all this while.
"Sister Jin, well done!"
An Xinhui flashed a thumbs up, feeling elated. At the same time, she silently heaved a sigh of relief in her heart.
If they were to compare their overall strength, the Central Province Academy was inferior to the Myriad Daos Academy. But now, they were competing against top-notch great teachers. Their chances of winning were very high.
"I miscalculated!"
Cao Xian also discovered this problem, but there was no solution to it. Unless it was absolutely necessary, these famous schools wouldn't participate in a great teacher group battle. Hence, Cao Xian had no experience in this.
Just when Cao Xian was pondering what move he should make next, Sun Mo spoke up.
"Teacher Duan, please wait a moment."
Sun Mo stepped out from the crowd.
Duan Yingmei turned her head. "Teacher Sun, what can I do for you?"
A person's name was like a tree's shadow. If Duan Yingmei was facing an ordinary 2-star great teacher, she might treat them politely, but she would definitely look down on them in her heart. However, she didn't dare to slight Sun Mo.
He was a two-time champion in addition to God Hands. This was sufficient to win Duan Yingmei's respect.
Naturally, there was also a hint of favorable impression.
"This brat is really handsome!"
For the sake of her career development, Duan Yingmei hadn't gotten married. Occasionally, she would dream of a strong arm hugging her.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Duan Yingmei + 10. Friendly (70/1,000).
"..."
Sun Mo suddenly heard the system's notification. The train of thought in his mind was interrupted as he looked at Duan Yingmei in astonishment.
(Do you have some kind of thoughts toward me?)
(But sorry, you aren't my type!)
Duan Yingmei's appearance was about 60%. It was just that her lips were thin and her chin was slightly sharp. According to the information obtained from Divine Sight, she was a proud and suspicious white-collared woman.
To put it simply, if her boyfriend spoke to an unfamiliar woman, she would suspect him and interrogate him for an hour.
(However, although your appearance and personality aren't in my good zone, I still have to headhunt you. It's because your potential value is extremely high.)
(Moreover, in terms of teaching and educating people, you're very responsible and have unique views.)
(Such a great teacher can become the main force of a famous school.)
"Teacher Sun?"
Sun Mo didn't say anything, causing Duan Yingmei to frown. She didn't know what he was trying to hide.
"Teacher Duan, do you feel like you're overflowing with spiritual energy with nowhere to vent it when you're cultivating recently?"
Sun Mo asked.
"Ah?"
Duan Yingmei's brows twitched and she asked, "How do you know?"
(I heard that you have God Hands, but you haven't touched me before.)
(Could it be that you can know my situation just by looking at me?)
"For the past half a year, have you felt that your mouth is dry and you can't sleep well? You always feel that you're full of energy?"
Sun Mo asked again.
"Yes!"
Just when Duan Yingmei nodded, she saw Cao Xian looking at her with a reproachful expression. She started for a moment and understood the reason. Cao Xian must have thought that she had interacted with Sun Mo privately.
Otherwise, how could he know so much just by taking a few looks?
"Headmaster Cao, I didn't. Don't misunderstand!"
Duan Yingmei explained.
"Hehe, Teacher Duan must be joking. I don't have the qualifications to interfere when you're making friends."
Headmaster Cao smiled, but he was very angry in his heart. (Do you think I'm a fool? You must have been touched by Sun Mo before, right?)
When Duan Yingmei had encountered a bottleneck, she had sought guidance from Cao Xian, but Cao Xian couldn't resolve it. Hence, when he saw the two of them now, he subconsciously felt that it was very logical for Duan Yingmei to seek help from God Hands privately.
Duan Yingmei frowned. Cao Xian's tone was a little loathsome. However, on account that Cao Xian had treated her quite well during these few years, Duan Yingmei prepared to explain further. However, before she could speak, Sun Mo spoke first.
"Teacher Duan, you cultivate the Burning Moon Heart Sutra, right?"
As the name 'Sun Mo' came out, let alone Cao Xian, even if her beloved dog fell into the water and died, Duan Yingmei wouldn't care about it anymore.
"Teacher Sun, you've also cultivated the Burning Moon Heart Sutra before?"
Duan Yingmei asked, her eyes wide with shock. One must know that this was a relatively rare cultivation art. Back then, she had only obtained it by chance.
Also, the reason why she could have her current achievements was because of this cultivation art.
"Mn, I've cultivated it before!"
Sun Mo nodded.
"Teacher Sun, since there's time, why don't we discuss it?"
Duan Yingmei had an excited look on her face. She didn't have the jealousy of others having something she had. On the contrary, she wanted to spar with Sun Mo.
It was because her understanding of the Burning Moon Heart Sutra had reached a bottleneck. Moreover, it was impossible for her to discuss it with someone who didn't understand this cultivation art.
"Teacher Duan!"
Cao Xian reminded, his voice filled with resentment. (Do you treat me as non-existent?) Moreover, Duan Yingmei's words were very weak. When the spectating students heard it, it was as though a teacher from the Myriad Daos Academy was begging Sun Mo.
"Hehe!"
Duan Yingmei also knew that it wasn't too appropriate and tactfully shut her mouth. However, Sun Mo spoke again.
"Your Burning Moon Heart Sutra is incomplete. That's why you would have this feeling of having abundant spirit qi but nowhere to vent it out. Moreover, as time passes, it would affect your body."
"Teacher Sun, don't be an alarmist!"
Cao Xian grew anxious. This Sun Mo was trying to stir up trouble.
Sun Mo didn't bother with Cao Xian. He took a few steps forward and stood before Duan Yingmei. He moved his head close to her ear and mumbled in a low voice, "Your great aunt must have bled a lot during this half a year, right?"
Duan Yingmei had a dumbfounded look on her face. (What the hell is great aunt? Moreover, my great aunt is just an ordinary farmer's wife. Why would she bleed?)
"Eh!"
Sun Mo felt a headache. He could only endure the shame and speak again.
This time around, Duan Yingmei's countenance turned unsightly.
It was because Sun Mo was right. This meant that the cultivation art he cultivated was indeed incomplete.
"Teacher Sun, you..."
Duan Yingmei subconsciously wanted to ask what the complete Burning Moon Heart Sutra was like. However, when she opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say.
To her, the Burning Moon Heart Sutra was an extremely precious peerless-grade heaven-tier cultivation art. In any case, if it was her, she wouldn't easily impart it to others.
Just when Duan Yingmei was conflicted about what price she could pay, Sun Mo once again moved close to her ear.
The hot air he exhaled caused her hair to flutter, feeling a little itchy. This also caused Duan Yingmei to feel a little flustered. She felt as though there was a little deer jumping around in her chest.
However, very soon, Duan Yingmei's entire body and mind were immersed in Sun Mo's soft voice. Her body started to tremble from agitation.
"What is Teacher doing?"
She kept feeling that she was going to suffer a great loss.
"Isn't it obvious? He's using the seduction tactic! "
Tantai Yutang chortled.
"Ah?"
Lu Zhiruo was shocked.
