Sun Mo's hand stiffened as he stared at Murong Ye in astonishment.
(I know you contributed a lot of favorable impression points and should admire me a lot. But I didn't expect you to be so generous.)
There was a rule in the Dragon Subduing Academy. Regardless of whether they were students or great teachers, even if they passed the test and entered the Dragon Hall, they had to go through three years of observation to confirm their loyalty to the academy before they could obtain the ancient dragon language.
There was also an unspoken rule that if one wasn't a barbarian, no matter how outstanding their performance was, they wouldn't be able to obtain this language.
Sun Mo didn't know these secrets, but after hearing the words' dragon language ', he knew how precious the scroll in his hand was.
"Many thanks for Headmaster Murong's good intentions, but I can't accept it!"
Sun Mo returned the scroll.
The winter wind was a little cold, but Sun Mo's heart felt a little warm.
"I've always felt that knowledge is alive. If it can land in the hands of someone who can develop it, they should be happy and fortunate."
Murong Ye persuaded.
"Teacher..."
Xian Yuwei wanted to persuade him. (This is the dragon language, how can you not want it?) If it was her, she would have started reading it eagerly.
"It's impossible for me to stay in this famous school."
Sun Mo stated clearly.
When Xian Yuwei heard this, she was stunned and blurted out, "Why?"
Sun Mo didn't explain.
As for Murong Ye, he didn't need Sun Mo to explain either. "You've misunderstood. I'm not using this as a threat to get you to stay. It's purely because I admire you."
Sun Mo's priceless advice was too good. Although Murong Ye didn't agree with it completely, he acknowledged Sun Mo.
"Sorry, I can't accept it!"
Sun Mo rejected. After clasping his hands, he turned and left.
He was an upright person who knew gratitude. Although Murong Ye didn't want anything, Sun Mo would feel that he owed Murong Ye a great favor if he couldn't get over it.
Sun Mo would rather spend a sky-high price to purchase the ancient dragon language than to have it given to him for free.
Moreover, Sun Mo had already learned it.
"I've already spent 200,000 favorable impression points. I should use it at least once, right?"
Otherwise, he would feel like he had been taken advantage of.
"Teacher, wait for me!"
Xian Yuwei chased after him, unable to conceal the shock on her chubby face. She had finally witnessed the bearing of a great teacher today.
One dared to give and the other dared to reject. What a perfect match.
Murong Ye looked at Sun Mo's back view and sank into contemplation.
The holly on the campus was still green.
An hour later, Murong Ye made his decision.
In the library, Murong Mingyue was sitting on a wooden chair and reading a book. Her posture was elegant and refined.
"Bright Moon!"
Murong Ye shouted.
Murong Mingyue's fingers trembled as she rose to her feet and bowed slightly. "Uncle!"
"En!"
Murong Ye sat down. "Sun Mo, do you know this person?"
Murong Mingyue shook her head.
"His study of spirit runes is very impressive. Moreover, he just broke the record for the fastest person to clear the trial and carved his portrait on the Giant Dragon Rampart."
Murong Ye explained.
Murong Mingyue was not shocked. She sat there with an indifferent expression on her face, like the reflection of the moon in a lake, calm and unperturbed.
She liked peace and quiet. Hence, she would eat and read alone. However, because Sun Mo's popularity was simply too high, there were people discussing him everywhere. Hence, she also heard about these things.
"I admire Sun Mo and want him to join my great teacher circle, but he rejected me. Mingyue, I can only rely on you. Help me persuade him."
Murong Ye instructed.
Murong Mingyue didn't want to go, but Murong Ye didn't give her a chance to reject. After speaking, he stood up and left.
"When will these days come to an end?"
Murong Mingyue frowned slightly. She thought of Sun Mo, who wanted to poach her to join the Central Province Academy. He even made a bet with her to revive the withered peach forest.
"Sun Mo, you shouldn't have come to the Dragon Subduing Academy!"
Murong Mingyue nodded. Her gaze landed on the pages of her book, but her thoughts had already drifted away.
...
After the botany class in the afternoon, Sun Mo followed his usual routine. He gave Xian Yuwei a massage and sparred with her, explaining her strengths and weaknesses through actual combat.
"Teacher, I feel that I've lost a lot of weight again."
Xian Yuwei rubbed her belly. She was very happy that she had lost a lot of fat. However, she was a little puzzled. "But I've eaten quite a lot recently. Why is that? "
As for the amount of training, when Xian Yuwei was with Song Enmin, it wasn't small either. After all, that great teacher also wanted her to lose weight.
It was just that he hadn't succeeded.
"Because of the massage and the Dharma Skyshock Fist."
Sun Mo explained.
"Previously, you cultivated for six hours a day. It might seem like a lot, but your cultivation art is too weak. It can't exhaust the excess energy in your body at all."
The Dharma Skyshock Fist was a Buddhist fist, a cultivation art that martial monks specialized in.
What were martial monks?
They could be said to be hired thugs specially raised by temples. Every day, other than cultivating, they would go out to collect rent or go on expeditions to other temples to make a name for themselves.
Sun Mo had studied it before. When this cultivation art was cultivated to the extreme, it could turn one into a muscular man, like the Terminator. Therefore, he hadn't been using it recently.
After all, Sun Mo's goal was to be an elegant young man and walk the path of a suave scholar.
A scholar was handsome and charming. To ghosts, he could attract Xiaoqian. To humans, he could make rich young ladies fall in love with him and make maidservants fall in love with him. If he was a little more impressive, it wouldn't be a problem for him to marry a princess.
What kind of charm could a muscular man have?
Only the lady boss who needed manual labor at home liked him.
Moving bricks in the day and seducing people at night. Two jobs with one cent of salary. Perfect.
If the lady boss was a little more beautiful, he could even save on his salary.
"Teacher!"
Xian Yuwei knelt down. She had no way to repay him and could only kowtow.
"Get up. As long as you cultivate well and display your brilliance in the Autumn Hunting Ceremony, that would be the best repayment to me."
Sun Mo smiled lightly. "Come, let's fight again."
...
The next morning, after Sun Mo washed up, he headed toward the Dragon Subduing Palace.
"Teacher Sun is here!"
As Sun Mo arrived at the teleportation formation, the students waiting in the surroundings immediately straightened their bodies and bowed to greet him from afar.
In famous schools, great teachers who were good in both academics and combat would always have the highest popularity. Moreover, Sun Mo was so handsome.
"Things like cultivation can't be rushed. Students below the spirit-refinement realm shouldn't come and join in the fun. They won't understand."
Sun Mo persuaded.
"Teacher, didn't many people say that by observing more, we can increase our horizons?"
A student asked.
"It's different. For example, if I challenge the dragonman, given your current cultivation realm and experience, you won't be able to understand. Moreover, the most terrifying thing is that you might be influenced by me and learn from me."
Sun Mo stopped and looked at the young man who asked the question.
"What do you mean by increasing your horizons? Just because you've seen a pig being slaughtered or eaten pork doesn't mean that you've increased your knowledge. Rather, you've integrated all this knowledge and turned it into your own nourishment. You've become knowledgeable. Otherwise, it's very likely that you'll make a wrong judgment due to your lack of knowledge. "
"Do you know about the saying 'the blind is groping an elephant'?"
Sun Mo smiled and asked.
Everyone nodded. This story was something that everyone in the Nine Provinces knew.
"At your current age, there's no need for you to increase your horizons. Instead, you should work hard in your cultivation to dig out the aspects that you're most proficient in and find your advantages. After that, when you go out in the future to 'increase your horizons', you'll be able to refine the knowledge that will allow your advantages to become even more advantageous."
Sun Mo's cultivation art was too good and his combat style was gorgeous. It would definitely cause the students to feel great interest. If they started to imitate him, things would be bad.
The students were deep in thought. Some of them revealed expressions of sudden realization and bowed.
"This student has benefited from your teaching!"
Ding!
Congratulations, you've obtained a total of 1,893 favorable impression points.
...
The moment Sun Mo entered the dragonman hall, the four great teachers in the training ground immediately stopped their battles and walked out in unison.
"Teacher Sun, please!"
"There's no rush. You guys can fight first."
Sun Mo smiled.
"Since Teacher Sun is here, how can we embarrass ourselves? It's better for you to go first! "
The four great teachers modestly declined.
Honestly speaking, if they fought the dragonman together with Sun Mo, they'd definitely be compared by the spectators. If their performance was bad, it'd be embarrassing.
"Teacher Sun, there's no need to decline."
The great teachers who were bored to death in the venue immediately gathered over. They came here to wait for Sun Mo to fight the challenge mode.
"In that case, I won't stand on ceremony."
Sun Mo clasped his fists. After expressing his thanks, he got off the stage.
He cut his palm and dripped fresh blood. Soon, the Dragonoid appeared and the challenge began.
"Heavenly God above, I've finally waited for this long."
Xiao Di was all smiles.
As expected, breaking up with his girlfriend was a correct choice. Without her, his life would be much more relaxed. At the very least, he wouldn't need to worry about her every day.
The days when he wasn't a simp were so happy!
The goal of the endless challenge mode was to clear as many stages as possible. Hence, Sun Mo went all out from the start, rushing toward the 50th stage.
Very soon, people kept entering the great hall. In less than half an hour, it was filled with people.
"How many rounds is it now?"
"Twelve rounds."
Xiao RiNan, who had rushed over, immediately felt depressed when he heard this. "Didn't we just fight yesterday? Why is he here again today? "
"Is Teacher Sun an iron man? Doesn't he need to rest? "
"Shh, can you guys stop talking?"
The entire great hall was silent. Everyone was paying full attention to Sun Mo. Occasionally, someone would speak up and be reprimanded.
In the corner, they were speechless when they saw how influential Sun Mo was.
Time passed minute by minute.
After fighting the 42nd round and killing the red dragonman, Sun Mo took out his pocket watch and glanced at it.
It was almost time for class, but Sun Mo didn't wish to give up. Otherwise, he'd have to fight again tomorrow.
"Teacher Sun, continue. I'll arrange for someone to inform the students that you're on leave today."
Murong Ye spoke.
Although he knew that Sun Mo was doing something useless, he wanted to see Sun Mo fight. It was because Sun Mo was too dazzling and breathtaking. Also, those cultivation arts were extremely profound.
Jiang Ji was in the crowd as well. When he saw a vice-headmaster treating Sun Mo so well, he felt extremely jealous.
This year, he'd most probably become Sun Mo's stepping stone.
(Hmph, after he's done, I'll challenge him as well.)
"Then I'll have to thank Headmaster Murong."
Sun Mo clasped his fists and inhaled deeply. After that, he waited for the next wave of dragonmen. However, when the light sphere landed on the ground, it summoned an ancient giant dragon.
Roar!
The dragon's roar shook the sky.
Everyone covered their ears, their gazes filled with astonishment because this was their first time seeing a giant dragon. Sun Mo's spirits stirred because this dragon's roar could be translated.
