The Battlegod Canyon was a towering mountain. Every day, only when the sun was in the sky would sunlight shine down. Most of the time, the mountain would cast a large shadow.
When there was wind or cloudy weather, the canyon would be as cool as autumn.
"You are..."
Sun Mo turned his head.
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man. He exuded an imposing aura even without being angry. This was especially so when the shadow of the mountain covered his face, causing his facial features to appear a little sinister.
The papaya girl hid behind Mei Ziyu. This person's appearance and aura caused one's heart to palpitate.
"I'm Yan Ju, a 5-star great teacher and the head teacher of the Taoshi Academy."
The middle-aged man reported his identity, instantly attracting the attention of the people in the surroundings.
It was because these two titles were considered quite impressive.
There was nothing much to say about 5-star great teachers. In a small country, they were major characters that even the emperor would come out to welcome. As for the Taoshi Academy, it was an 'A' grade famous school.
In the entire Middle-Earth Nine Provinces, there were only 18 of them. To be able to become the head teacher of such a top-notch school, one could tell that his capabilities were extremely great even if one thought with their knees.
"Nice to meet you!"
Sun Mo nodded, waiting for Yan Ju to explain his purpose of coming.
Yan Ju frowned slightly and surveyed Sun Mo, thinking that he didn't know if this fellow was arrogant or didn't know the ways of the world. Ordinary people would have taken the initiative to greet him when they heard his identity.
However, Sun Mo merely said the word 'nice to meet you'.
Also, weren't the expressions of these students a little too calm?
Sigh.
As expected of people from low-grade schools. Their horizons were too shallow and they basically didn't know what sort of major character they were facing.
(It's rare for a 5-star great teacher to have a chance to speak to you guys in your entire lifetime.)
"Is this young lady your student?"
Yan Ju felt that he was a major character and thus didn't care about the attitude of Sun Mo and the others. He looked toward Li Ziqi and surveyed her carefully.
"Yes!"
There was no need to ask. They were here to headhunt people. Hence, Sun Mo casually replied.
"How old are you?"
Yan Ju estimated that she should be around 13 or 14 years old, right? After all, her appearance and figure were clearly in her budding years.
Li Ziqi had received royal etiquette before, and she was humble and polite when interacting with others. However, this Yan Ju had a lofty appearance. This was especially so when he was talking to a teacher. His tone was completely questioning and wasn't too polite. Hence, she lowered her head and pretended not to hear him.
"Bad ears?"
Yan Ju's frown deepened. If this was the case, his points would be deducted.
"My eldest senior sister is fourteen years old!"
Qin Yaoguang chimed in.
"Fourteen?"
Hearing this number, Yan Ju's thoughts became lively again. He couldn't help but ask, "How many great teacher halos have you comprehended?"
If it was two or more, he could accept her as his disciple. If it was one, then forget it. It was not worth the effort to poach her.
The Taoshi Academy was also a famous school, and they were extremely strict when it came to enrolling students. One needed to have extremely high aptitude. Hence, within the first two years of enrolling, there were students who comprehended self-taught. Although it was rare, it wasn't impossible.
Li Ziqi was intelligent and could basically guess Yan Ju's thoughts. Hence, she spoke.
"Two!"
If he were to say that he had three or even four, it would definitely cause a huge commotion. Then, Yan Ju would ask him to headhunt him. This would undoubtedly bring trouble to him and his teacher.
But speaking of which, there should also be students of this level in the Taoshi Academy, right?
If that was the case, wouldn't it seem like the teacher's teachings were incompetent?
Hence, the little sunny egg chose to announce a 'two'.
From her point of view, this was an average standard. It wouldn't cause others to covet her and invite unnecessary trouble. It also wouldn't cause her teacher to lose face.
However, she didn't know that after Yan Ju heard this number, his eyes brightened and he looked at her with a burning gaze.
"Two? When did you comprehend the self-taught halo? "
Yan Ju took two steps forward, wanting to observe Li Ziqi at a closer distance. "There are two more halos. What are they?"
The little sunny egg took a step back and hid behind Sun Mo. After that, she didn't continue the conversation.
"What's your name?"
Yan Ju asked.
This time around, Li Ziqi directly hid behind Sun Mo and ignored him. This caused Yan Ju's thick and short brows to furrow deeply.
But after that, he relaxed his brows.
(It's fine. She definitely doesn't know how esteemed my identity is. After she understands, she'll know how rude her current actions are. Then, she'll apologize to me in fear and trepidation.)
Hence, Yan Ju smiled and introduced in a teasing tone.
"5-star great teachers are a little lacking. After all, there are many great teachers in the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces. However, there are only 18 'A' grade academies!"
"I'm untalented and am currently taking up the position of the teaching director."
"You, are you interested in coming to the Taoshi Academy to study?"
Yan Ju also wanted face. In front of her personal teacher, he didn't have the cheek to poach her. In any case, after she came to the school, she would be like meat in the pot. He would just have to think of other ways.
Li Ziqi didn't hesitate and directly rejected. "Sorry, I'm not interested!"
"Hehe, the teachers here are all very impressive. There's also the basic facilities... cough..."
Yan Ju couldn't continue because he was rejected too quickly. He was too astonished and almost bit his tongue.
"Why?"
Yan Ju was surprised. A student at this age should already know the benefits of a famous school.
"Because I want to follow Teacher to seek knowledge."
Li Ziqi's reply was concise and comprehensive.
For the second time, Yan Ju glanced at Sun Mo. It seemed like this fellow had some capabilities. He had done quite well in terms of winning over the feelings of his students.
Of course, this young man was also very good-looking. If he had some talent, he would really be able to make young girls fall for him.
"This great teacher, are you interested in working in the Taoshi Academy?"
Yan Ju laughed.
(This is called taking drastic measures. After I headhunt your teacher, you will surely come as well, right?)
(At that time, you will know how insignificant the world you have seen is. As for this teacher...)
Yan Ju felt that three months later, he would be affected by the immense pressure of teaching and being surrounded by talented great teachers. He would then become autistic.
There was no need for him to fire him. If he knew his own limitations, he would resign and leave.
"Not interested!"
Sun Mo's rejection was also very clean.
Meow meow meow?
(What the hell?)
(Are all the people I met today idiots?)
Yan Ju was stunned. (Why don't you guys speak according to the script?)
(Yes, maybe I didn't hear it clearly.)
"Sorry, what did you say?"
Yan Ju repeated his words.
"Teacher said that he isn't going!"
Qin Yaoguang helped when she saw that Sun Mo wasn't interested in answering this question.
"This great teacher, is the name of the Taoshi Academy not enough?"
Yan Ju's tone was a little unhappy.
From his point of view, Sun Mo was waiting for a good offer, asking for a better salary than the current one.
(What wishful thinking!)
(Do you know how many great teachers would fight to get into our Taoshi Academy during the recruitment season every year?)
"This fellow actually doesn't offer a price when he headhunts people. He really has no sincerity!"
Gu Xiuxun spoke in disdain.
"Because the name of the Taoshi Academy is sufficiently resounding."
Mei Ziyu understood Yan Ju's mentality.
It was sufficient for a major school to headhunt people based on their fame.
It was like Real Madrid and Barca headhunted people. Those players would rather stop training and lower their salaries to join them. Why? Because standing on this platform would be extremely beneficial to their future careers.
Naturally, the prerequisite was that they could establish a foothold in the team.
"Not enough!"
Sun Mo replied with two words. He no longer had the mood to be perfunctory.
"What did you say?"
Yan Ju's eyes instantly widened to the limit. "Say it again?"
"You guys can continue. I'll go out with Ziqi. Zhiruo, do you want to join us?"
Sun Mo treated Yan Ju as a mad dog.
"It's fine, I'll comprehend a little more!"
The papaya girl felt that she should work harder, or her prestige as the second martial sister would be lost.
"Pay attention to your body."
Sun Mo instructed. After that, he looked at Yan Ju. "If you didn't hear it clearly, I'll say it again. Not enough!"
Hua ~
A commotion broke out in the surroundings.
(This fellow is so arrogant. It's one thing if you don't want to join the Taoshi Academy's headhunt, but why do you have to be so unyielding? This is very offensive.)
"You... you..."
Yan Ju pointed at Sun Mo. He was so angry that his hand was trembling.
"Stop it. Our teacher is so carefree and carefree as a vice headmaster in the Central Province Academy. Why would he want to join your Taoshi Academy as a teacher?"
Qin Yaoguang spoke in disdain. She didn't like this fellow's attitude either.
"Vice headmaster? So young? "
"Central Province Academy? Is it An Xinhui's school? "
"What's this fellow called? Sun Mo? Eh, I seem to have heard this name before? "
The people in the surroundings discussed.
Right now, Sun Mo was famous because he had obtained shocking results in the two great teacher examinations. However, he hadn't made a name for himself in other places.
Hence, those who knew of his great name were all from the great teacher world.
"You are Sun Mo?"
Although it was a question, Yan Ju had already confirmed it. If it wasn't for God Hands and An Xinhui's fiance, this fellow definitely wouldn't have the confidence to speak to him so rudely.
"Don't you feel that it's very rude for you to only ask my name now?"
Sun Mo mocked.
In truth, everyone could tell that Yan Ju didn't treat Sun Mo seriously. Not taking the initiative to ask for Sun Mo's name was also a form of disrespect.
"Eh!"
Yan Ju felt unbearable from being choked. After that, he felt angry. Ever since he became a 3-star great teacher, those juniors had been very well-behaved when speaking to him. It had been 20 years, right?
This Sun Mo was the first person who dared to use such a tone.
"How preposterous. Sun Mo, I admit that your results in the examinations are very good, but you are only a 2-star great teacher now. I don't know how many years it would be before you can obtain my current title. Hence, as a person, you must be humble and accept your gifts."
Yan Ju displayed the demeanor of a great teacher and lectured Sun Mo.
"Is this the attitude you should have when facing a senior? Why aren't you apologizing? "
Boom!
Even Profound Words erupted forth.
"This fellow is too bad!"
Mei Ziyu was exasperated. Sun Mo was bullying Sun Mo by relying on his high star-rank and grasping many halos.
Profound Words would force the listener to do what the great teacher said. It wasn't like Priceless Advice, which was a great teacher's way of venting his emotions. Even if the great teacher didn't think this way and was just a sanctimonious fellow, Profound Words would still be effective.
"Hehe, he's going to be out of luck!"
Gu Xiuxun was joyful. (Do you think the nickname Black Doggy Sun is fake?
You are taking the initiative to deliver yourself to me!)
