Absolute Great Teacher

chapter-1083
"Battle ends! Li Ziqi wins!"
Tong Yiming announced and gestured for the medical team to hurry up and save Miao Huan.
"Isn't this too unfair?"
Looking at his disciple who was carried away, Miao Huan's teacher couldn't help but question, "I'd admit the loss if it was due to not being as skillful, but I'm not convinced to lose to such a battle tactic that's backed by money."
The surroundings were filled first with silence, and then people started agreeing."That's right. As long as a person has money, they can buy a lot of such spirit rune rods. Wouldn't they be invincible then?"
"This is a humiliation to our many years of hard work in cultivation!"
Tong Yiming was about to speak up when the ancestor-level spirit runist on the judges' stand couldn't hold back anymore. She burst out in rage.
"Shut up!"
The sharp gaze of an ancestor-level expert swept across the entire place. "A bunch of short-sighted and ignorant fools! You guys have no idea how many fresh ideas this spirit rune rod has brought to the Nine Provinces' battle system!
"Why are you guys upset and scared? It's because you've sensed its impact and prowess. To think that you guys are 3-stars great teachers! Don't you guys understand that battle prowess doesn't just refer to martial skills alone but also intelligence? And intelligence is even more priceless than martial skills!"
Everyone present sank into silence again under the ancestor-level expert's furious lashing.They weren't stupid nor ignorant. They naturally knew how amazing this invention was. However, they found it a little unacceptable now that they had become the victim.
"As great teachers, one should be broad-minded and magnanimous, being able to accept wins and losses, and being able to face failures. Is a 4-stars great teacher title worth you guys being so anxious that you can no longer discern between the good and the bad?"
After the ancestor-level expert finished speaking, golden light spots burst out from his body.
Priceless Advice was activated.
The examinees around the arena all lowered their heads. "We were wrong!"
"Wow, Eldest Martial Sister is so amazing to have an ancestor-level expert speak up for her."
Xianyu Wei felt envious.
"Student Li, you possess exceptional aptitude in the path of spirit runes. Do you want to study under my wing?"
The ancestor-level expert smiled as he looked at Li Ziqi. He couldn't help but ask.
Wow!
The moment he said this, the crowd was taken by astonishment.
How outstanding was this female student that an ancestor-level expert would try to recruit her so openly?
Reputation was highly valued in the great teacher world. Therefore, everyone would only headhunt in private even if they wished to do so.
Hence, this ancestor-level expert's action was a little overboard.
"Thank you for your kindness, but my teacher is the one who has taught me everything I know about the study of spirit runes. I wish to continue to learn from him."
Li Ziqi lowered her head slightly and bowed.
This ancestor-level expert let out a sigh. He knew that Li Ziqi really admired Sun Mo just from seeing her expression. Since he couldn't headhunt Li Ziqi with this method, he looked toward Sun Mo.
"Teacher Sun, are you willing to part with your cherished student?"
The ancestor-level expert's tone was very sincere. "As long as you agree to it, you can take everything that I have."
"I'm sorry, she's priceless in my heart."
Sun Mo rejected.
"Does this guy not know what's good for him? Our Teacher is an ancestor-level spirit runist who can have equal exchanges with Dean Bai. Who does he think he is?"
Ying Baiwu was displeased.
"Old Wang, why are you acting so crazy? Can't you discuss such things in private?
The female ancestor-level expert next to him frowned and complained in a soft voice.
(Our reputation as ancestor-level experts has been ruined by you.)
"I've lost my cool!"
The ancestor-level expert let out a long sigh, leaned against the chair, and watched as Li Ziqi walked down the arena, returning to Sun Mo's side. She stood by his side like a docile daughter. As he saw this, his heart was filled with bitterness and envy.
(This is a great seedling who can inherit my learnings and spread my research far and wide! It's a pity that she's not mine!)
Suddenly, he felt that the rest of his life was boring and meaningless.
He should just go back!
He should really just go back!
At the thought of this, this ancestor-level expert, whose surname was Wang, left the exam venue directly.
"Old Wang, what are you doing?"
The female ancestor-level expert was furious.
"Let him be. I can understand his feelings!"
"Although the student is good, they're not mine. That's too infuriating."
"Ancestor-level experts have times when they feel defeated. This girl is just too special and loyal to boot."
The other ancestor-level experts talked about the students they had missed out on, feeling great bitterness.
After all, many things in life wouldn't go well.
The battles continued, but the audience stopped watching. Due to this sudden occurrence, all of them were trying to find out about this girl.
What?
She had been refused by a secondary saint before?
What?
She had broken the record as the youngest great teacher?
What?
She was also the Great Tang's princess? She was super rich?
Li Ziqi became famous in merely one night. Her name wasn't known by all, but it was definitely very familiar to many. She became the most famous person in this year's personal disciples battle.
Due to her, even Wan Xiulin and Huang Peng became famous as well because their teacher was Secondary Saint Zhou.
"You must kill Li Ziqi for me!"
In the hotel, Jiang Zhitong flew into a rage.
He wanted to deal Sun Mo a blow, teaching him a lesson and letting him know the consequences of offending the Zhou Clan. However, as the examination went on, Jiang Zhitong became an invisible presence.
...
Very soon, the 202 students who had won started the third round of competition. As long as they won one more round, they'd be able to get their teachers the 4-stars great teacher title. Therefore, everyone went all out.
The battles became especially bloody and intense.
Li Ziqi was picked for the 12th match.
Although the opponent did everything he could, after the spirit pressure was controlled and his movement was restricted, he had to face the lightning sea, raining fireballs, as well as the attacks from wind elementals.
His defense wasn't bad, and he made Li Ziqi deplete 50 spirit rune rods. However, against the little sunny egg's vicious money-spamming tactic, he couldn't hang on.
There was no helping it. The time would come when his spirit qi and stamina wore out. However, Li Ziqi just needed to toss out a spirit rune rod.
This was like killing a person with the flick of a finger.
"Teacher Sun, congratulations!"
"Teacher Sun, getting four stars consecutively is really domineering! You'll have to treat us to something good!"
"I knew long ago that Teacher Sun will achieve great things."
The examinees came up, wanting to get close with Sun Mo, this new 4-stars great teacher.
Sun Mo nodded to return the greetings politely until Li Ziqi came back.
"Teacher, I've won!"
The little sunny egg raised her head and looked at Sun Mo happily.
"Thank you!"
Sun Mo rubbed Li Ziqi's head.
"It's I who have to thank you!"
Li Ziqi pursed her lips. "Without you, there wouldn't be the current me."
"You're too humble. Without me, you can still become successful." Sun Mo shook his head.
"Sigh, stop being so polite to each other. We're all on the same side anyway."
Qin Yaoguang chewed on a pearflower candy. "Where shall we head to celebrate tonight?"
"I'm not done with my competition!" Ying Baiwu pouted, feeling a little upset.
With Li Ziqi winning, Ying Baiwu's battle result wouldn't matter anymore, and its importance immediately plunged. It felt really bad. She had wanted to win the title for their teacher personally.
"What reward do you want?"
Sun Mo thought about it. He had taught everything he knew—except for the things from the modern world which mustn't be brought up—to the little sunny egg.
(I want to get married to you!)
Li Ziqi knew that this was one thing she must never mention. Therefore, she smiled and said, "I want to stay by your side forever. Even if I were to commit a grave mistake in the future, you mustn't chase me away."
Wow!
Hearing Li Ziqi's request, all the examinees nearby felt jealous.
(Why don't I have a beautiful and talented female student admiring me so much?)
"I'll definitely not chase you away."
Sun Mo laughed, not noticing that Li Ziqi's "you" wasn't the one used in polite speech.
"Baiwu, Zhiruo, the two of you mustn't let down your guards. Not only must we win, but we must also try our best to get first place, fighting to get first place for Teacher."
Li Ziqi instructed.
"Even if you don't tell me that, I'll still go all out!"
Ying Baiwu had a new goal—to enter the finals and win the championship.
After the little sunny egg's battle, people kept on coming to approach Sun Mo, wanting to purchase the spirit rune rods. There was no helping it. These were good items suitable for travel and killing.
"Teacher Sun, please just give us a price."
These great teachers didn't lack money; all of them were very rich. It was a pity that Sun Mo wasn't selling them.
Even An Xinhui was disturbed by some people who knew her.
"Do you guys think Ziqi will be able to throw her way to the finals if she continues to throw spirit rune rods like this?"
During dinner, everyone got together for a meal. Gu Xiuxun had a great anticipation.
"That's impossible. That Huang Peng is very amazing. Just throwing spirit rune rods alone won't be enough to beat him."
Murong Mingyue had observed this young man. He was a strong opponent.
"Zhang Wentao's female student by the name of Liu Yuzhi is very strong as well."
An Xinhui mentioned another opponent they needed to take note of.
"What about Xu Cong?"
Gu Xiuxun felt that this student wasn't bad either.
"Jiang Zhitong's student?" Mei Ziyu was amused. "The Jiang Clan is already left in the dust of history."
"Teacher Sun, congratulations!"
Bai Xiqing came over and sat down by Sun Mo's side familiarly, pouring him a cup of wine.
"Thank you!"
Sun Mo was very friendly to his fangirl.
Gu Xiuxun threw a glance and didn't take her to heart. A woman whose face was filled with freckles and wasn't as beautiful as she was wasn't a threat at all.
The atmosphere during the meal was relaxing and pleasant due to Sun Mo successfully gaining the 4-stars great teacher title.
After this round of examination, Sun Mo's fame would spread throughout the entire great teacher world.
...
The winter sunlight felt like a lover's embrace.
Lu Zhiruo got onto the arena.
This time around, her opponent didn't encounter any accident.
"This is lucky. Sun Mo has become a 4-stars great teacher, so it doesn't matter to them whether they win or lose this round. As long as I acted a little fiercer and displayed the disposition as if I'd bring her down with me, they'd cower."
Liu Mingdeng was secretly feeling pleased.
However, after taking a look at Lu Zhiruo, he felt that there wasn't a need to do this.
So big!
No wait, weak, slow-witted, and adorable were his first impression of the papaya girl.
"It's a steady win!"
His teacher, Nangong Xun, also heaved a long sigh of relief.
"Teacher Nangong, congratulations!"
People who knew this great teacher started to congratulate him.
"No, no, we'll only find out after the battle is over."
Nangong Xun said humbly, but the smile on the corners of his lips couldn't be hidden at all.
"Start!"
As Tong Yiming's words ended, Liu Mingdeng pounced out to attack, wanting to create an extremely strong pressure. However, his vision blurred as a stone spear came thrusting over.
(F*ck!)
(What the hell?)
(It's so fast?)
