At the very least, even if he were to be expelled from the academy, he would still be a teacher. Even if he were to leave Hongtian Academy, he would still be able to teach in other schools!
However, it would be different if he were to be stripped of his teaching license. Regardless of where he goes, he would become a stain on his reputation and be mocked by others!
This is precisely the reason why Elder Shang Chen called Elder Mo of the Teacher Guild over. After all, even though he is the head of Hongtian Academy, he doesn't have the authority to strip him of his teaching license. To think that... before he could say anything, this fellow has already raised the matter!
Furthermore, he wants to add a hundred God Slaying Sticks...
The God Slaying Stick is a unique artifact forged in Tianxuan Kingdom. It is painful and one's skin would split open, but it doesn't harm one's core. After a hundred blows, even the strongest expert would lose half his life...
Do you think that you aren't ruthless enough, or do you think that you aren't dying fast enough?
Everyone stares at the young man as though he is an idiot.
"Zhang Xuan laoshi, you..."
Shen Bi Ru laoshi, who is standing behind him, nearly fainted.
Brother, can't you tell that this is a trap set up by Shang Bin and Cao Xiong? Their motive is to lure you into it. Being expelled from the academy is already a heavy punishment. Yet, not only did you not reject it, you even want to raise the stakes. Are you insane...
"You can't blame others for your own death!" Harrumphing coldly, Cao Xiong turns to look at Shang Chen and says, "Elder Shang, I think that Miss Zhang's suggestion isn't bad. I hope that the academy will agree to it!"
Seeing him agree to it so quickly, Liu Yang slaps his forehead and looks at him sympathetically.
Miss Zhang is too evil!
First, he feigns a guilty look to boost the other party's confidence. Then, he makes use of the opportunity to raise the stakes. Most probably, even if Cao Xiong laoshi were to die, he wouldn't even know what happened!
"It is fortunate that I became his student. Otherwise, my life would be over..."
Recalling how he nearly became Cao Xiong laoshi's student, Liu Yang shudders and cowers.
"Un, alright. Since both parties have agreed on the stakes, let's begin!" Elder Shang Chen nods his head. Two crystal balls the size of watermelons are pushed over. Placed on the stone pillar, they are transparent and emit a warm glow.
"This is a crystal ball made of the Heart Questioning Stone. Zhang Xuan, Cao Xiong, each of you drip a drop of blood on it! Liu Yang went over to touch it, and the crystal ball would reflect his inner thoughts in the form of trust! Whoever had the highest Trust Level would win! The rules are simple. Are there any more questions? "
Elder Shang Chen said.
"No!"
Zhang Xuan and Cao Xiong nodded at the same time.
The Enlightenment Will Trial was actually very simple. It was to make use of the Enlightenment Will Stone's special ability to question the student's inner heart. The teacher that the student trusted the most would naturally win.
The rules were simple, but the price of the Heart Inquisition Stone was not cheap, and there was no market for it. It was a one-time consumable, and after it was used once, it was as good as useless. Thus, unless it was absolutely necessary, even the academy was not willing to use this method.
As for the cost, it was usually paid by the loser.
In the eyes of Cao Xiong and the others, Zhang Xuan was just a trash who scored a zero in the Teacher Qualification Examination. He was incapable of anything. Liu Yang was one of the top hundred students, so how could he be willing to be his student?
The moment he took the examination, he would lose without a doubt!
By then, not only would he be able to humiliate and drive him out of the academy, he would also be able to bankrupt him and ruin his reputation. This was killing three birds with one stone.
"Let's begin!"
Seeing that the two of them had no objections, Elder Shang Chen waved his hands.
Zhang Xuan and Cao Xiong walked forward and dripped a drop of blood on the crystal ball.
A warm glow shone and the faces of the two of them were reflected in the Heart Inquisition Crystal Ball.
"Go!"
Following Elder Shang Chen's shout, Liu Yang walked forward and placed his left and right hands on the two crystal balls.
Weng!
The crystal ball immediately emitted a white glow, enveloping him within.
"The Heart Inquisition Stone has the ability to hypnotize one. The moment one comes into contact with it, one would quickly fall into an illusion. In here, every action comes from one's heart and there isn't the slightest bit of emotion. If a student was forced to become a student, not only would he not have any trust in his teacher, he might even feel disgusted! Thus, the Enlightenment Will Trial is the most direct and accurate way to determine whether a student is truly willing to acknowledge a teacher! "
Elder Mo Xiang looked at Liu Yang, who had already closed his eyes and fallen into an illusion, and said slowly.
"That's right. Trust represents the level of trust. It is divided into a hundred points and every ten points represents a level. Zero points represents zero trust! Ten points represents slight trust and twenty points represents average trust … The relationship between a student and their teacher is usually around thirty. It is said that a formidable teacher can earn a student's trust in him to reach fifty. This is already a fearsome feat. Even in the entire Tianxuan Kingdom, it is hard to find such a case! After all, a student's trust in their parents is only around sixty! "
Elder Shang Chen stroked his beard.
The conversation between the two of them was, in fact, informing the crowd of the theory behind the Enlightenment Will Trial.
Humans are sentient animals and they have their own thoughts. It isn't easy to make a person trust another person.
Putting everything aside, even one's parents, whom they grew up with, are unable to achieve a hundred percent trust!
Needless to say, a teacher.
Only after interacting with one another for a long period of time would one's trust in them rise.
There are only two days left before the start of the semester. Furthermore, given how terrible Zhang Xuan's reputation is, how much trust can he have?
It is easy to figure it out with one's toes.
"Right, Elder Mo, I heard that the guild has a master teacher evaluation criteria and one of the criteria seems to be the trust level of a student. May I know if that's true?"
After explaining, Elder Shang Chen suddenly recalled something and asked.
Teachers are divided into three levels, elementary, intermediate and advanced. Zhang Xuan is at the lowest elementary level while Shen Bi Ru, Shang Bin, and the others have already reached the advanced level.
Most people have already reached the end of the path when they reach the advanced level.
In Hongtian Academy, the famous Lu Xun and Wang Chao are at this level as well.
Only above the advanced level are master teachers!
Master teachers aren't just famous, they are also knowledgeable in providing guidance and cultivation. Those who are able to become the students of such a master teacher will grow stronger and stronger, eventually becoming a powerful figure.
Emperor Shen Zhui isn't the eldest son of the royal family. Logically speaking, it is impossible for the throne to land on him. However, it is said that when he was young, he studied under a master teacher for a few days. After which, he advanced by leaps and bounds, becoming the number one expert of the younger generation in the royal family and even the kingdom. That was how he inherited the throne and expanded his territory!
To be able to become the disciple of a master teacher is the dream of countless people!
The occupation of teacher can only be considered as a low-tier occupation in the Upper Nine Paths. However, once one becomes a master teacher, even among the many occupations in the Upper Nine Paths, it is an indisputable fact.
Even the popular apothecaries, blacksmiths, formation masters... are unable to match up to them!
Teachers are said to have students all over the world, and master teachers are even more so. Any random expert could be their student. If anything were to happen, they would be able to rally hundreds of people to their side. Even those with authority dare not offend them.
Legend has it that the king of a large kingdom somehow offended a master teacher. Under the command of this master teacher, dozens of Fighter 8-dan Zongshi swarmed over. In less than a day, the entire capital was destroyed, and the royal clan was exterminated, their bloodline severed.
That is precisely the reason why all cultivators know that one can offend anyone but a master teacher!
Who knows how many students he has? How many experts are there among his students?
Offending a single master teacher is equivalent to poking a hornet's nest. Even if they don't die, they will be crippled!
Of course, the title of master teacher isn't that easy to obtain. There are many conditions that must be met and raising the trust of a student swiftly is one of them.
