Absolute Great Teacher Chapter 620: Life Tutor, Chicken Soup for the Soul!

Chapter 620: Life Tutor, Chicken Soup for the Soul!

“I didn’t do anything much. I could win quite relaxingly because my teacher has taught me well!”
Xuanyuan Po was someone who didn’t know how to be humble. He was saying this because he truly thought like this.
If he had met an enemy like Ding Yi in the past... Even if he could win, he would definitely be heavily injured. And in the worst case, his injuries might be deadly.
(Is this the power of intelligence?)
This was the first time Xuanyuan Po won a fight via battle strategies. This caused him to feel that it was very interesting. He was also very excited and felt even more admiration for Sun Mo.
(As expected, I still have many good things I can learn from Teacher!)
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Xuanyuan Po +1,000. Respect (5,100/10,000).
After hearing the system notification, Sun Mo was a little shocked. Wasn’t the number of favorable impression points a little too high?
Sun Mo didn’t know that his guidance today provided an extremely huge impact on Xuanyuan Po. It was like a door to a new world had been opened.
“Junior brother, I thought you said that you would only train in your Prairie Blazing Fire Spear Technique and would ignore all other cultivation arts?”
Tantai Yutang teased. “But when you unleashed the palm strike from the Dharma Skyshock Fist, it looked really seasoned!”
“I didn’t train much in that!”
Xuanyuan Po stroked his silver spear with his finger, looking like he was caressing the face of his wife. “I will not betray Silver Paste!”
“So, why would your Presenting Borrowed Flowers to Buddha look so seasoned?”
Li Ziqi interjected.
“Oh, I’ve seen you guys train in that before. Besides, when Teacher went through the profound secrets of this cultivation art, I was there as well. After listening to it, I naturally knew and understood it.”
Xuanyuan Po’s tone was as it should be by rights, but everyone was so depressed that they felt like dying.
This was especially so for Li Ziqi. She was gnashing her pearly white teeth and wanted to bite the combat addict. (Are you bragging about your talent?)
(Hmph, I will look for you to play chess every day in the future!)
(I will make sure to eat all your pieces before checkmating you.)
“What sort of monster is this personal student of yours exactly?”
Gu Xiuxun was shocked. Intense envy could be seen in her eyes.
She knew that the Dharma Skyshock Fist was a peerless saint-tier cultivation art.
Usually speaking, the more powerful a cultivation art, the harder it would be to train it. But Xuanyuan Po understood it just after listening to Sun Mo explaining the concepts a few times? Besides, the might he produced when he used that move wasn’t weak. What terrifying talent was this?
Cough cough!
Tantai Yutang used a handkerchief and covered his mouth. He really felt very envious when he looked at Xuanyuan Po’s body. If he could be so healthy, he would definitely be able to complete his revenge.
“Aiya, don’t think so much. Come, let’s eat some melons, let’s eat some melons!”
Lu Zhiruo used her hand and cleaved a watermelon before she joyfully passed a piece to everyone.
She managed to evade her teacher’s questioning and didn’t lose face. Moreover, her junior martial brothers and sister also won their matches. This was something worthy of celebration!
Worthy enough for her to eat a large piece of melon!
...
During the break time, Sun Mo used the basic massaging technique on Ying Baiwu and the other two. At the same time, he got them to soak in medicinal baths.
One couldn’t help but say that the Giant Medicine Packet was really useful when it came to recovering spirit qi for cultivators. After soaking in it for some time, their bodies were adjusted back to their peak states.
One could say that after fighting up until now, only Sun Mo’s three personal students were still in tip-top condition. The other students had suffered various degrees of injuries.
After all, the competition schedule arranged by the Saint Gate was so tight. It was impossible for everyone to have enough time to recover fully.
When the dawn came, the third round of the competition began as scheduled.
“I feel that you guys are so shameless!”
Gu Xiuxun couldn’t help but tease them after she noticed that Ying Baiwu and the other two were practically glowing with vitality.
“Not bad!”
Xia Yuan was unable to restrain a smile. “I really feel sorrow for all of your opponents. I estimate that right now, many people would definitely yearn for Teacher Sun’s Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands to give them a rejuvenating massage.”
Everyone laughed and walked into the entrance of the Westmountain Academy. After that, they were surrounded by a group of youngsters selling information reports.
“We won’t be buying any!”
Ying Baiwu was deeply afraid that the wastrel princess Li Ziqi might continue to treat gold as dust. Hence, she quickly took the initiative and stepped out, rejecting them all.
“We are not here to sell information reports!”
“Teacher Sun, can you please guide me a little?”
“Esteemed Teacher Sun, please accept a kowtow from me. Can you help me check to see if I have the aptitude for cultivation?”
There were a total of 12 youngsters kneeling as they spoke, kowtowing to Sun Mo with great force.
“I was wondering why all the information sellers ran to the school’s gate. So, they are waiting for Teacher!”
Lu Zhiruo was enlightened. “Did you guys come here after you heard about the matter with the previous information report seller?”
“That’s right.”
Everyone hurriedly nodded and looked at Sun Mo with anticipation in their eyes. It was as though a single sentence from him could change their fates.
When the great teachers passing by saw this, they crowded over and were preparing to admire Sun Mo’s God Hands.
“Quiet down!”
Sun Mo spoke and looked at these young people.
All twelve of them straightened their backs, wanting to give Sun Mo a good impression.
“Hmph hmph, when I saw so many information report sellers rushing to the school’s gate, I knew there would be major news. As expected, I managed to spot one.”
Li Ruolan complacently aimed the image-recording stone at Sun Mo.
At this moment, the carriage with Mei Yazhi and Mei Ziyu within entered the campus.
“Move to the side first!”
Mei Yazhi instructed her driver as she watched everything with interest.
“Who wants to go first?”
Sun Mo asked.
These youngsters still didn’t know Sun Mo’s personality and were worried they might antagonize him. Their hearts were filled with trepidation. What if he confirmed that they had no aptitude for cultivation?
Hence, no one spoke.
“You first then!”
Sun Mo casually pointed to a youth in hemp garments and walked over. He stretched out his hand and placed it on the youth’s shoulder before forcefully kneaded.
The youth in hemp garments momentarily froze, not even daring to breathe loudly.
The surrounding great teachers all kept silent and observed seriously. But even when a total of three minutes passed, Sun Mo still hadn’t spoken.
Gurgle~
The youth in hemp garments gulped down a mouthful of saliva. The trepidation on his face grew increasingly intense.
Finally, Sun Mo released his grip. However, he simply looked at the youth and didn’t speak.
“T...teacher Sun...”
The youth squeezed out a smile that was uglier than him crying.
Li Ziqi and Tantai Yutang frowned. Delaying like this didn’t fit their teacher’s behavior at all. Could there be some people with problems among this group of youths?
“Sun Mo, just tell him directly whether he has hope or not!”
As a great teacher, Gu Xiuxun actually managed to guess Sun Mo’s thoughts. The answer was surely a bad one. This was why Sun Mo had no way to say it out so directly.
(Sigh, as expected, Sun Mo is so gentle. Even if the other party is a minor character, he can’t bear to hurt them.)
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Gu Xiuxun +100. Reverence (20,300/100,000).
Sun Mo suddenly heard the notification and cast a bewildered glance at Gu Xiuxun.
(Why did you contribute favorable impression points?)
(If you surpassed the honest guy and the papaya girl and became my number one point-generator, allowing me to reap a lot of points every day, I would actually feel panic.)
“Sun Mo, we understand your gentleness!”
Gu Xiuxun patted Sun Mo’s shoulder with an understanding look on her face.
“What gentleness? I don’t understand it at all!”
Sun Mo shouted in his heart, but the matter before him was more important. Hence, he coughed and adjusted his emotions. “Sorry, you don’t have the talent for cultivation. It’s better for you to work a normal job honestly!”
As Sun Mo spoke, the tense atmosphere in the surroundings finally relaxed.
The youth in hemp garments started, and his countenance instantly turned pale-white. After that, his body grew soft as he fell onto the ground.
“Haha, I’ve always known this. How can a yokel like me have great achievements like other people?”
He laughed self-mockingly and then struggled to get into a kneeling position to kowtow to Sun Mo once again.
“Many thanks for the golden advice provided by Teacher Sun!”
After speaking, the youth in hemp garments trembled as he walked toward the school’s exit.
Actually, he shouldn’t have indulged in vain delusion. As a human, it would be for the best if he could see his situation clearly.
The surrounding great teachers sighed. In this world, the mediocre would always make up the vast majority.
“Next, who will it be?”
Sun Mo ignored the youth in hemp garments and continued to ask.
The remaining youths didn’t dare to make any sounds. If Sun Mo didn’t speak, it meant that they could still dream about it, but once he said it, they would be the same as the youth in hemp garments.
Sun Mo swept his gaze across the kneeling youths and turned his head to call out, “Little bro, can you come back?”
The youth in hemp garments didn’t hear it. It was a great teacher beside him who notified him.
After he walked back...
“What do you plan to do from now on?”
Sun Mo asked.
“I...from now on...”
The youth in hemp garments had a lifeless look in his eyes and chaos in his brains. “Work to keep myself alive. If I’m lucky, I would be able to save a sum of money and marry.”
Give birth to a kid?
This was something he would never dare to imagine because he wouldn’t be able to afford raising a kid!
“Although your talent in cultivation is ordinary, you can have some accomplishments when it comes to weaponsmithing, so what would you do?”
Sun Mo asked again.
“Ah?”
The youth in hemp garments was stunned.
Also, Li Ziqi and Tantai Yutang revealed a look of enlightenment. So, their teacher’s purpose was this.
“Do you have someone in your family who is a blacksmith? Why don’t you continue working in that blacksmith store?”
Sun Mo continued to question.
Upon hearing this, the great teachers in the surroundings were stunned. Could God Hands even do this from its sense of touch? Subconsciously, all of them turned to look at the youth in hemp garments.
“Say something!”
A great teacher with an anxious disposition urged.
“Ah? Y...yes!”
The youth in hemp garments had never been stared by so many people before. He felt somewhat nervous and afraid. “M...my uncle and my father fell out due to fighting for a small-sized land my grandfather left behind. After that, my father forbade me from working at the smith store.”
After he finished speaking, only then did the youth realize that Sun Mo actually knew there were blacksmiths in his family. Wasn’t this too magical?
(Wait a minute! Teacher Sun is saying that I have talent in weaponsmithing?)
The youth in hemp garments was wildly joyful.
Si~
The surrounding great teachers all took in a gasp of cold air as they looked at Sun Mo.
Was God Hands actually so terrifying?
“T...teacher Sun, please guide me!”
The youth in hemp garments knelt and kowtowed thrice.
“You have some talent in weaponsmithing. You can choose a school and join as an assistant to a weaponsmith. In the future, even if you have no way to forge or refine weapons, it won’t be a problem for you to become an outstanding normal blacksmith.”
This data was obtained by Sun Mo through Divine Sight after he analyzed them.
“Many thanks Teacher Sun, many thanks Teacher Sun!”
The youth in hemp garments excitedly kowtowed to the point where his forehead bled.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from the youth in hemp garments +1,000. Respect (1,000/10,000).
“Teacher Sun, please help me take a look!”
“Teacher Sun, I’m begging you!”
“You are like my second parent!”
After seeing the situation of the youth in hemp garments, the others couldn’t control their excitement and were striving to be the first to be guided.
“Silence!”
Sun Mo coldly spoke as he lectured in a solemn tone, “If a person wants to change his fate, they need to work hard instead of depending on a sentence from another! Can it be that just because I said you guys have no talent and are destined not to have a good future, you guys are planning to live in mediocrity forever?”
“And you!”
Sun Mo glanced at the youth in hemp garments. “I gave you a pointer, but once you grow lazy and become discouraged after you encounter a setback, you will still be a failure!”
Everyone fell silent.
“In life, there are simply too many difficulties. They aren’t something you can just step through because of a sentence from someone. You guys have your own legs. Every time you strive to cross through a setback with your own efforts, you guys will slowly walk to a better life.”
After Sun Mo finished speaking, Priceless Advice erupted.
Golden motes of light akin to rain cascaded down on everyone soundlessly, moistening them while also bringing warmth, entering their hearts.
Everyone started to contemplate.
Even those great teachers were no exceptions.
“Let’s go!”
Mei Yazhi revealed a gratified smile and instructed her carriage driver.
Although Sun Mo had just joined the great teacher world, his understanding of the great teacher’s occupation was already relatively deep.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Mei Yazhi +100. Friendly (160/1,000).
“Eh? We are not watching anymore?”
Mei Ziyu felt some reluctance.
“If we continue watching, you won’t be able to shift your eyes away.”
Mei Yazhi teased.
“Mother, stop that!”
Mei Ziyu blushed bashfully.
Mei Yazhi looked at her daughter, her gaze was as gentle as water. Sun Mo was so outstanding and handsome; he was truly a good match. Sadly, he already had a fiancee.
“Mother, do you think those information report sellers have talent?”
Mei Ziyu’s brows were furrowed. “Even if half of them had talent, they would also be buried because they had no opportunities, correct? Do you think it’s possible for the Saint Gate to think of a solution to give them an opportunity?”
“Silly child, they are all ordinary people.”
Mei Yazhi sighed.
“Ah?”
Mei Ziyu started. However, she was also an intelligent person and soon understood the reason. As expected, Sun Mo was a gentle man.
Ding!
Favorable impression pints from Mei Ziyu +100. Respect (1,050/10,000).
...
Sun Mo didn’t provide pointers for the other youths. However, they didn’t forcefully request him anymore because after they heard his words and were illuminated by the glow of Priceless Advice, they had a new understanding of life.
Their new understanding was this – never bow down to fate. (If others say I cannot make it, I don’t give a damn. I just have to work hard and do my very best!)
The youths kowtowed to Sun Mo again before they left. They were now filled with hope for their future.
“Teacher, do you think they will have some accomplishments in the future?”
Lu Zhiruo turned her head, feeling very curious.
“Senior martial sister, can you be even more naive?”
The sickly invalid ridiculed.
“Ah?”
Lu Zhiruo was surprised. “Did I say something wrong?”
“Other than that youth in hemp garments, the other people have no talent. It would be hard for them to have any accomplishments in the future.”
Li Ziqi sighed.
“Ah?”
The papaya girl felt a little bewildered.
“Our teacher is really a kind and gentle guy. If those people have talent, Teacher would directly tell them. He is using this round-about method to tactfully encourage them!”
Tantai Yutang explained.
“Oh, so this is the case?”
Lu Zhiruo looked at Sun Mo.
“As humans, we should always live for a goal. Since they have no goals, I shall construct one for them.”
Sun Mo patted the papaya girl’s head. Many people lived simply for the sake of living on. If they worked a little harder, they would erupt forth with capabilities that they didn’t even know existed in them.
Although the youths were now filled to the brim with ‘chicken soup’ and intense fighting will toward life, Sun Mo believed that they would return to their original selves just a year later.
“If becoming successful was so easy, wealthy magnates, landlords, high officials, and saints would be everywhere.”
Gu Xiuxun shook her head and sighed.
Li Ruolan followed behind them. She agreed with Sun Mo’s words. (As expected of a man I admire. I will add 2 more marks for you.)
At 9 a.m., the seats in the battle dojo were fully filled. The third round had started!
