Chapter 849: Sun Mo, You Shouldn’t Have Come to the Dragon Subduing Academy!
Sun Mo’s hands, which were holding the book, froze as he stared at Murong Ye in astonishment.
(I know you contributed quite a lot of favorable impression points and also appreciate me a lot. But I didn’t think you would be so generous.)
In the Dragon Subduing Academy, there was a rule. Regardless of students or teachers, even if they had passed the trial and gained access to the Giant Dragon Great Hall, they had to be observed for three years, and the headmasters would only bestow the ancient dragon language to them should they have proven their loyalty.
There was even another hidden rule. If you were not a barbarian, no matter how outstanding your performance was, you wouldn’t get to learn this language.
Sun Mo didn’t know these secrets, but when he heard the words ‘dragon language’, he also knew how valuable this book in Murong Ye’s hands was.
“Many thanks for headmaster Murong’s good intention, but I cannot accept this!”
Sun Mo returned the book.
The cold wind of winter was somewhat cold, but Sun Mo’s heart was filled with warmth.
“I’ve always felt that knowledge is alive. If they landed in the hands of those who could make them glow brilliantly, they (the knowledge) would feel happy and lucky.”
Murong Ye advised.
“Teacher...”
Xianyu Wei wanted to persuade him. (This is the chance to learn the dragon language, why don’t you want it? If I was in your shoes, I would already start to flip through the book impatiently.)
“It’s impossible for me to stay in this school.”
Sun Mo made things clear.
When Xianyu Wei heard this, she started and blurted out, “Why?”
Sun Mo didn’t explain.
As for Murong Ye, he didn’t need Sun Mo to explain. “You’ve misunderstood me. I’m not using this as a bargaining chip to make you stay behind. I’m doing this purely because I admire you.”
Sun Mo’s Priceless Advice was truly too well-spoken, and although Murong Ye didn’t completely agree, he approved of Sun Mo.
“Sorry, I still can’t accept it!”
Sun Mo rejected. After clasping his hands, he turned and left.
He was an upright person who knew the value of gratitude. Although Murong Ye didn’t want anything, Sun Mo couldn’t get past the feeling in his heart. He would feel that he owed Murong Ye an immense favor.
Sun Mo would rather spend favorable impression points to purchase the ancient dragon language instead of getting it free as a gift.
Besides, Sun Mo had learned it.
“I’ve already spent 200,000 favorable impression points, so it ought to be of use, right?”
If not, this feeling would make him feel foolish like a spendthrift.
“Teacher, wait for me!”
Xianyu Wei chased after him with shock on her plumb face. It could be considered that she had witnessed what was called a great teacher’s bearing today.
One dared to give such a valuable gift, the other dared to not accept it. What an amazing combination.
Murong Ye stared at Sun Mo’s departing back and sank into contemplation.
The holly in the campus was as verdant as ever.
An hour later, Murong Ye made his decision.
In the library, Murong Mingyue sat on a wooden chair and was reading a book. Her demeanor was gentle and refined.
“Mingyue!”
Murong Ye called.
Murong Mingyue’s fingers trembled. She then stood up and bowed slightly as she greeted, “Uncle!”
“Mn!”
Murong Ye sat down. “Are you acquainted with this person named Sun Mo?”
Murong Mingyue shook her head.
“His expertise in the study of spirit runes is extremely impressive, and he just broke the speed-clearing record and has his images engraved on the walls in the Draconic Human Great Hall.”
Murong Ye explained.
Murong Mingyue wasn’t shocked. She sat there with a calm look akin to the bright moon reflected in the lake. There were no ripples in her expression.
She liked the quietness. Hence, she would always be alone when it came to eating or reading. But because Sun Mo’s popularity was truly too high and there would be people discussing him everywhere she went, she had heard about his feats.
“I admire Sun Mo and want him to join my great teacher circle, but he rejected me. Mingyue, uncle can only depend on you now. Please help me to persuade him.”
Murong Ye instructed.
Murong Mingyue didn’t want to go, but Murong Ye didn’t give her the chance to reject. After he finished speaking, he stood up and left.
“How long should I live this way?”
Murong Mingyue’s beautiful brows furrowed. She recalled that Sun Mo wanted to headhunt her to the Central Province Academy. He had even betted with her that the peach trees would be able to bloom again.
“Sun Mo, you shouldn’t have come to the Dragon Subduing Academy!”
Murong Mingyue nodded and her gaze fell back to the pages. However, her mind had wandered away.
...
After finishing his botany lecture in the afternoon, Sun Mo did things according to his usual habit. He first gave Xianyu Wei a massage, and then he sparred against her and explained to her about her strong points as well as flaws through practical combat.
“Teacher, I feel that I am skinnier by a lot now.”
Xianyu Wei pinched her stomach skin. She had lost quite a lot of excess flesh and was very happy. However, she was a little puzzled. “But I have eaten quite a lot recently. Why is this the case?”
Moreover, her training load wasn’t more than when she had followed Song En`min. After all, Song En`min also wanted her to slim down.
“Because of the massages and the Dharma Skyshock Fist.”
Sun Mo explained.
“In the past, you cultivated for six hours every day. It looks a lot, but because your cultivation art is too weak, it has no way to digest the excess energy in your body.”
The Dharma Skyshock Fist was a buddhist-style fist art, a cultivation art passed down by martial monks.
What was a martial monk?
They were fighters raised by the temple. Other than cultivating every day, they would be out collecting alms or challenging other temples to raise their reputations.
Sun Mo did his research. When this cultivation art was practiced to the limits, one would be able to become an extremely burly and muscular guy. This was why he stopped using it recently.
After all, Sun Mo’s goal was to be an elegant young man, walking the path of a graceful scholar.
Scholars were handsome and refined. He would be able to attract girls like Nie Xiaoqian if he was a ghost, and he would be able to attract girls from rich families if he was a human, making maids fall in love with him. If he was even more impressive, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to marry a princess.
What charisma did muscle guys have?
Only the female boss of coolies would like them.
Shifting bricks during the day and pleasuring the lady boss at night. Working two jobs for one salary. Perfect.
If the lady boss was more beautiful, things would be perfect. He might even choose to forego his salary.
“Teacher!”
Xianyu Wei knelt. She had nothing to repay him and could only kowtow.
“Stand up. As long as you cultivate well and can display your brilliance in the Autumn Hunting Sacrificial Ceremony, that would be my best reward.”
Sun Mo smiled. “Go, fight another round.”
...
On the next morning, Sun Mo headed to the Dragon Subduing Palace after washing up.
“Teacher Sun is here!”
As Sun Mo arrived at the teleportation formation, the students waiting at the surroundings immediately stood up and bowed at him from afar.
In a famous school, some great teachers were skilled in both learning and combat. Their popularity would always be the highest.
“A matter like cultivation cannot be rushed. Students at the Spirit-refinement Realm and below shouldn’t come here to partake in the liveliness as you guys wouldn’t be able to understand even if you watched.”
Sun Mo persuaded.
“Teacher, but many people said that watching would also be able to expand our horizons?”
A student asked.
“It’s different. For example, if I fought against a draconic human, given the current cultivation realm and experience you guys have, you all basically wouldn’t be able to understand what’s happening. Moreover, what’s most terrifying is that you guys might even be influenced by me and try to imitate me.”
Sun Mo stopped and looked at the youth that was asking the question.
“What does the phrase ‘expand your horizons’ mean? It isn’t the same as you understanding pigs because you’ve seen pigs being slaughtered and you have eaten pork before. Rather, it’s to take what you see and integrate it into your own style, transforming the meaning you derived from your vision into your own nutrients to grow your knowledge and experience. Otherwise, you might only know a smattering of knowledge and would make mistakes in judgment.
“Do you guys know the idiom making an overall judgment on something based on a one-sided view point, like how a blind man touches an elephant?”
Sun Mo asked with a smile.
Everyone nodded. This was a classic story known to everyone in the Nine Provinces.
“At your current age, you don’t need to expand your horizons. You only need to cultivate assiduously and find out what you are most proficient in, knowing your own strong points and flaws. After that, you can ‘expand your horizons’, and try to gain more knowledge to further enhance your strengths.”
Sun Mo’s cultivation arts were too powerful. His combat style was gorgeous as well and would surely cause the students to feel greatly interested. If they tried to imitate him, it would really be bad.
The students pondered and some revealed expressions of enlightenment. These students then bowed to him.
“We have benefitted from your teaching!”
Ding!
Congratulations on obtaining a total of +1,893 favorable impression points.
...
When Sun Mo entered the Draconic Human Great Hall, the four great teachers currently in the four areas immediately paused their combat and walked out in unison.
“Teacher Sun, please feel free to use the area!”
“No hurry, you guys should finish your fights first.”
Sun Mo smiled.
“Teacher Sun has already arrived, so there’s no need for us to continue showing our lousy skill and embarrass ourselves. It’s better for you to take over!”
The four great teachers modestly declined.
Honestly speaking, if they fought the draconic humans together with Sun Mo, the audience would surely compare them. If their performance was bad, things would be embarrassing.
“Teacher Sun, don’t be so modest and decline anymore.”
The great teachers here who were bored immediately gathered over. They were waiting here precisely for this, waiting for Sun Mo to try the unlimited challenge mode.
“Alright, I won’t be polite then.”
Sun Mo clasped his fists. He went down after thanking them.
After slicing his palm, fresh blood flowed and the draconic humans started spawning as the challenge started.
“Heavenly deities above, I’ve waited for this.”
Xiao Di was grinning happily.
As expected, breaking up with his girlfriend was the correct choice. Without her, his life was much more relaxed. At the very least, he didn’t need to show his care and concern for her every day.
(Not being a simp feels so joyful!)
The goal of the unlimited challenge mode was for the challenger to clear as many stages as possible. Hence, Sun Mo immediately went all out when he started, aiming to clear 50 rounds.
Very soon, more and more people entered the great hall. And the place was fully packed even before 30 minutes was up.
“Which round is it?”
“The 12th round already.”
Xiao Ri`nan who hurried over immediately felt depressed when he heard this. “I thought Teacher Sun just tried this mode yesterday? Why is he here again today?”
“Is Teacher Sun a man made of iron? Does he not need to rest?”
“Shh, can you not speak?”
The entire great hall fell completely silent as everyone focused on watching Sun Mo. When someone occasionally made a sound, they would be reproached.
Some of the great teachers here were astonished at how high Sun Mo’s influence was when they watched from the corners.
Time flowed by.
At the 42nd round, after killing the red draconic human, Sun Mo took out his pocket watch and looked.
It was almost time for his lecture, but it wasn’t easy to fight until this point and Sun Mo didn’t feel like giving up. If not, he had to fight again tomorrow.
“Teacher Sun, please continue to fight with no worries. I will arrange for someone to inform the students that you apply for leave today.”
Murong Ye spoke out.
Although he knew Sun Mo was doing this for nothing, he also wished to watch Sun Mo in combat because it was too gorgeous and beautiful. His cultivation arts were exquisite to the extreme.
Jiang Ji was also within the crowd. When he saw a vice headmaster treating Sun Mo so preferentially, it caused him to feel extremely jealous.
This year, he most probably would become Sun Mo’s stepping stone.
(Hmph, I will challenge this after he is done.)
“Many thanks to headmaster Murong then.”
Sun Mo clasped his fists and took a deep breath. He waited for the next draconic human to spawn, but when the next ball of light descended on the ground, the thing being summoned was an ancient giant dragon instead.
Roar!
Dragon roars shook the sky.
Everyone covered their ears and had a hint of shock in their eyes because this was the first time they saw a giant dragon. As for Sun Mo, his spirits stirred because he could understand the meaning of the dragon roars.
