Absolute Great Teacher

Chapter 1172 - Super Rewards!



Chapter 1172: Super Rewards!

Translator: Lordbluefire

Ignoring whether it was the Nine Provinces or the modern era, many people wouldn’t treat a matter like death casually because they felt that it signified being unlucky. There was no need to mention kings.

Look at the emperors and kings of the ancient era. Which of them hadn’t tried to exhaust all efforts to search for a way to prolong their longevity?

Sun Mo’s words could be said to be extremely rude and in grave breach of societal norms.

Xiao Luqi was over 50+ years old, and no one had ever spoken to him like this before. Hence, a green vein on his forehead throbbed violently, as though it was on the verge of an explosion.

If Sun Mo were a eunuch, he would be beaten to death right away before the emperor thought about anything else. However, Sun Mo was a glorious great teacher and was also a valued guest of Song Yan. Xiao Luqi truly couldn’t do anything to him.

But very soon, Xiao Luqi couldn’t care about the offense in Sun Mo’s sentence because he noticed some terms.

Sun Mo knew that he had received this cultivation art a year and a half ago and even knew its effects…

The numbers were too accurate.

Xiao Luqi’s first reaction was that there was a traitor beside him.

Speaking of which, the way he obtained this cultivation wasn’t very glorious. He had sent people to massacre the clan of a recluse. Hence, he naturally had to keep this a secret.

Hence, now that Sun Mo knew about this, it must have been leaked by a traitor!

After that, Xiao Luqi doubted this guess again. Sun Mo was someone from the Tang Empire who had no interactions with the people here. How could he possibly have bribed a spy and obtained such classified information?

Besides, if it wasn’t for him being prompted by a sudden impulse and wanting to come and meet Sun Mo, the two of them might have never met at all in this lifetime. It was useless even if Sun Mo received this news. For example, if what Sun Mo said was true, he would die three years later.

After eliminating all impossible answers, only one remained. Sun Mo managed to know his situation from ‘touching’ him.

Si~

God Hands was actually so terrifying?

“Emperor, Great Teacher Sun is worthy of your trust!”

This sentence of Song Yan was worth its weight in gold and was equal to being a guarantor for Sun Mo.

Xiao Luqi clasped his hands. His tone became respectful. “Great Teacher Sun, how heavily damaged is my body?”

“There are no symptoms from your appearance and your body is still strong. However, your origin qi is damaged. Ordinary doctors won’t be able to find anything wrong with you because this cultivation art is very strange!”

Sun Mo explained.

“Many thanks for Great Teacher Sun’s guidance!”

Xiao Luqi waved his hand. “These gifts were originally planned for the teacher-acknowledgement ceremony. However, since you want to inspect Feng`er further, please let him become an in-name disciple of yours first?”

After chatting idly for a few more sentences, Xiao Luqi went back to his carriage and returned to his palace in a hurry.

Song Yan sighed as he stared at the troops retreating. “A massacre is about to begin again in the Liao Country’s royal court.”

“Isn’t that something that happens often in the royal clan?”

Sun Mo shrugged nonchalantly.

“Sun Mo, all kings and emperors are suspicious people. In the future, you must speak cautiously around them!”

Song Yan persuaded.

“Mn!”

Sun Mo nodded.

“Eldest martial sister, why did he leave in a hurry?”

Lu Zhiruo didn’t understand. “Why didn’t he allow Teacher to help nurse his body?”

“Because he doesn’t trust our teacher. He is in such a hurry to go back because he wants to verify the truth of this matter!”

Li Ziqi explained.

“What truth?”

The papaya girl was too innocent and didn’t know of all the elaborate schemes and designs of people.

“There’s an 80% to 90% chance that someone wanted Xiao Luqi to die early by sending that cultivation art using various ‘methods’ to ensure it reached his hands. If Teacher didn’t reveal the problem with it today, Xiao Luqu would die three years later.”

Li Ziqi analyzed.

“Ah? At that time, the crown prince would surely be the one ascending to the throne. So, it was done by the crown prince?”

Lu Zhiruo was suddenly enlightened.

“Wrong, the other party might expose this secret after Xiao Luqi’s body begins to have problems and push the blame to the crown prince. After all, the crown prince is the person that will gain the highest benefits if the Emperor dies. Everyone would undoubtedly suspect him.”

As a princess of Great Tang, Li Ziqi was well-versed in the sinister designs and intricacies of the palace in-fighting. “At that time, the crown prince would become the culprit that wanted to harm the emperor, and the other princes would have a chance to ascend to the throne!

“Naturally, this might also be an elaborate tactic employed by the crown prince, setting a trap within a trap!”

“Ah?”

Lu Zhiruo was stunned. (It’s so troublesome?)

“Do you think that the emperor is a good person? Now, after he returns, he will definitely get many people to cultivate the same cultivation art to do an experiment.”

Li Ziqi felt sad for those people who would be forced to train in it.

Her teacher’s words wouldn’t be wrong. So, those people would surely die.

“In any case, in order to find the culprit, the emperor won’t be able to sleep well anymore. Because everyone will be suspicious to him!”

Gu Xiuxun didn’t mind things being chaotic when she was watching a show.

The surrounding great teachers were speechless. (Is it really okay for you guys to discuss palace matters so casually like this?)

However, since Li Ziqi was Sun Mo’s eldest disciple, everyone pretended that they heard nothing.

After the emperor left, Consort Rong brought Xiao Feng away, but she left the gifts they brought here.

“Ai, fool!”

Song Yan didn’t know what to say. This foolish woman missed a chance to let his son ascend to the skies with a single step.

In the future, she would surely regret her decision today.

“Headmaster. Consider these ‘gifts’ to be presents I’m giving to the Black-White Academy. I hope you can use them to aid the students in poverty.”

Sun Mo waved his hands and spoke seriously.

No matter what, he was currently the honorary headmaster. He had to give them a meeting gift, right?

The court eunuch who was responsible for delivering these gifts was stunned when he heard the words.

(What clan are you from? You are not even going to see the list of gifts and are going to directly donate them away? This is a very large sum of money!)

“I thank you for your aid on behalf of those students living in poverty!”

Song Yan clasped his fists.

“That’s right, there’s no need to be polite with someone wealthy like that!”

“Teacher Sun, please come and headhunt me. There’s no need for you to pay me 100 million. 50 million will do!”

“I only need 30 million!”

The eunuch heard the casual chat of these high star-ranking great teachers and couldn’t help but blink his eyes. (What are you guys talking about? Did this guy offer someone 100 million to headhunt them? Is this fake? Why is he so rich?)

Sun Mo did have an aura that seemed capable of withstanding all shocks. If other great teachers were in his place and there was a prince wanting them to become their personal teachers, they would not give up on this chance. But he didn’t seem to care at all.

Truly tyrannical!

A year and two months after Sun Mo had left the Central Province Academy, he finally set off on the journey leading back home.

This time around, his harvest was extremely good.

Clearing the Black-White Game that had been undeciphered for several thousands of years, convincing the teachers and students of this school, becoming the first honorary headmaster of the Black-White Academy.

And also completing his recruitment mission.

These elite great teachers would soon inject new blood into the Central Province Academy.

Right, he had even caught the Yin-Yang Child Granny. After he obtained a grandmaster spirit runist license, he would be able to become a 5-stars great teacher.

After returning to the school, he wanted to get this title first.

“Sun Mo, since you feel that Xiao Feng is a genius, why don’t you accept him?”

Gu Xiuxun didn’t understand.

“I think it’s too much trouble!”

Sun Mo honestly spoke.

Given his current status, it was unknown how many people wanted to take him on as a personal teacher. It was truly not difficult for him if he wanted disciples with outstanding talent. So, Sun Mo paid more attention to the student’s temperament and values when it came to accepting one.

For people like Qi Shengjia, even if they were talentless, Sun Mo was willing to accept them as long as they were willing to suffer and work hard.

There was also another point. After Xiao Luqi verified that his words had no problems, he would surely make another trip here with expensive gifts to get his son to take him on as a personal teacher once more. At that time, the value of the gifts presented by Xiao Luqi would be at least ten times more than what was given now.

When Jin Mujie heard Sun Mo’s reply, she was filled with incomparable envy. (When can I feel something like this is troublesome and reject accepting a prince as my personal student?)

Ding!

“Congratulations on completing the mission of recruiting over ten graduate students from one of the Nine Greats. Reward: 1x diamond treasure chest!”

Ding!

“Congratulations on completing the achievement: There Are No People I Cannot Recruit. You successfully recruited outstanding teachers and students from the Black-White Academy, and the number of successful recruitments is above ten. Reward: 3x diamond treasure chest!”

Ding!

“Congratulations on becoming the honorary headmaster of the Black-White Academy. Reward: 2x diamond treasure chests!”

Ding!

“Congratulations on capturing the Yin-Yang Child Granny, one of the five Doyens of Dark Dawn. Reward: 1x diamond treasure chest!”

The system’s voice rang out unceasingly in Sun Mo’s ears, and numerous treasure chests appeared before his eyes, blinding him with their radiance.

However, this time around, Sun Mo was a little unhappy.

“The Yin-Yang Child Granny is only worth a single treasure chest? Isn’t this a little too cheap?”

“You can choose to not want it!”

The system’s reply was as emotionless as ever.

“Qi!”

After Sun Mo mentally pointed a middle finger, he called Lu Zhiruo to enter a horse carriage with him.

In any case, the journey back was going to be very boring. He might as well use this time to open the treasure chests.

He decided to open four at one go and finish opening all the diamond treasure chests!

Swish~ Swish~ Swish~

Four skill books covered in different colors sprang out.

“Ah, good stuff!”

When Sun Mo cast his glance over, he saw the first book. [Primer Encyclopedia to Elementary-Level Weapon Smithing]. Proficiency level: Expert.

He didn’t hesitate and learned it on the spot.

Sun Mo was very happy as he carefully scanned the knowledge in his brain. He had gained another set of skills.

After completely grasping it, Sun Mo would be able to forge something like the spirit rune glove that could shoot out spirit qi waves, which they had designed in the past. There was no need for him to seek help from a weaponsmith anymore.

The second skill book was [Shennong Poison Classic], upper portion!

This was an encyclopedia that consisted of both a study on poison and a study on antidotes. After learning this, one would be able to see through at least 80% of all poisoning assassination methods in the world.

The third book was [A Quick Outline to Archaeology]!

It could allow a person to rapidly understand some knowledge on archaeology, including viewing Feng Shui, checking burial sites, differentiating objects, disarming traps, etc.

After learning this, if Sun Mo wanted to become a tomb robber, he didn’t need to worry that he might die due to the various traps hidden inside a tomb.

But honestly speaking, it was useless!

After all, Sun Mo wouldn’t go and rob a tomb.

“I’ll just treat it as expanding my horizons!”

Sun Mo glanced at the cover of the fourth skill book. After seeing its name, his lips twitched.

[Grandmaster Musician: 100 practical minor techniques from elementary-level to proficient-level]?

(What the hell is this? Forget it. I didn’t make a loss!)

At the very least, he would be able to compose the melodies he had heard before and sing them. Speaking of which, the songs of this era had no differences from ancient songs in China. They were opera songs, folk songs, and poems. In any case, they didn’t suit his taste at all.

After Sun Mo finished learning this skill book, he used another ten minutes to fully understand it before he started humming a melody.

“Teacher, what melody is this? It’s so nice!”

Lu Zhiruo blinked her eyes.

“[Descending The Mountain!]”

Sun Mo rubbed the papaya girl’s head and continued to open the treasure chests.

Ding!

A golden ball sprang out from the treasure chest, and there was a skill book inside. When Sun Mo cast a glance at it, he was so happy that he wanted to whistle!

Could it be that a new great teacher halo had finally appeared?
