Absolute Great Teacher Chapter 860 - Worry-free Students

Chapter 860: Worry-free Students

“Teacher Sun, student Tuoba Cong has a major matter to report.”
It was Tuoba Cong. Although Sun Mo didn’t see him, he could envision Tuoba Cong’s frivolous-looking face when he heard his voice.
Sun Mo didn’t reply.
Tuoba Cong waited for less than a minute and lost his patience. He continued to report.
“Teacher Sun, given your current fame, there would definitely be students wanting to take you on as their teachers.”
Tuoba Cong first made Sun Mo wear a tall hat. After that, he began to elaborate on his current difficulties. “However, although the Dragon Subduing Academy is a supreme-tier famous school, not everyone here is a genius student. After all, places with humans meant would have human emotions and favors. Even our headmaster wouldn’t be able to reject the descendants of some major characters who want to come here for study. So, the namelist in my hands is very important. It can prevent you from falling into a trap and accepting rubbish students.
Sun Mo laughed. “You want to sell information?”
“Hehe!”
Tuoba Cong was worried he might annoy Sun Mo. After all, great teachers always treated money as dirt. Hence, he substituted words with a smile and decided not to reply.
“I don’t need them.”
Sun Mo rejected. He mentally mused that he had two layers of insurances, Divine Sight and the ancient massaging technique. It would then be strange if he managed to accept a rubbish student.
“Given your current battle achievements, you will surely be employed by the school. But who would feel that their reputation is great enough? I have a set of namelist here that contains all genius students who recently encountered a bottleneck. Given your teaching capabilities, you will definitely be able to resolve their difficulties and allow them to shine brilliantly.”
Tuoba Cong tried again.
“You even know how to leave some empty space so you can follow up by saying later that I can use this chance to boost my fame.”
Sun Mo sighed, feeling a little depressed. This student had very high EQ, but he didn’t use it on the correct path.
“My family is poor and I can’t help it. In any case, I have to earn some money so I can feed my younger siblings.”
He started to make his origins sound tragic.
If other great teachers could help a student while also gaining information, they would naturally be happy to do so since this was a double-win situation.
“How much do you want to sell the information for?”
Sun Mo asked.
“I don’t need money.”
Tuoba Cong bowed and spoke with a humble attitude, “Do you have heaven-tier cultivation arts that are not important to you? You can give one to me as a reward.”
“Heaven-tier? Your appetite is truly big!”
Sun Mo’s lips twitched. This student was so greedy.
“Teacher, you are mistaken. Normally, I wouldn’t dare to make such a presumptuous request. After all, everyone treats heaven-tier cultivation arts as something more important than their lives. But you are different. You should have cultivated quite a few types of saint-tier cultivation arts, right? Since that’s the case, heaven-tier cultivation arts are rubbish to you. You can just casually bestow me with one.”
Tuoba Cong was relatively eloquent.
His sentence praised Sun Mo and also explained the reason why he made this request. He also placed his own status at an extremely low level.
“You are correct. Heaven-tier cultivation arts are not important to me. But I don’t wish to give you any.”
Sun Mo smiled. “Tuoba Cong, you should focus on cultivation. For something like money, that’s just a term experts coined together. When you truly grow strong to a certain extent, you will discover that money is really nothing.”
“I just want a good cultivation art for the sake of improving myself!”
Tuoba Cong grumbled, but his heart was pounding rapidly. His original intention was to get a cultivation art and sell it for money. He didn’t expect Sun Mo to see things so accurately.
“If you want a cultivation art, that’s fine. Regardless of becoming the hunting king or the top 100 in the Dragon Subduing Rankings Challenge, I will give you one for free.”
Sun Mo encouraged.
“Are your words true?”
Tuoba Cong’s eyes brightened.
“Are you not activating a voice-recording stone for the sake of collecting proof?”
Sun Mo mocked.
“Eh!”
Upon hearing this, Tuoba Cong’s head was instantly dotted with his sweat. How did Sun Mo know?
When one did a transaction like this, they definitely had to hold back a trick. What if the other party refused to acknowledge it in the future or try to find trouble for him next time?
But Tuoba Cong didn’t expect Sun Mo to have guessed what he was doing.
(Isn’t this too magical? Wait a minute? Could it be that he’s pranking me?)
After hesitating for a while, his exuberant desire to seek survival caused Tuoba Cong to subconsciously kneel.
“Teacher, I was wrong.”
Tuoba Cong kowtowed.
Denying it?
He didn’t dare because Sun Mo was too godly as a person. A great teacher that could reach the ancestor level definitely had extraordinary aspects.
“It must be very unbearable for you to stuff the voice-recording stone in the shoe of your left foot, right?”
Sun Mo teased.
“Teacher!”
This time around, Tuoba Cong was so frightened that he felt like peeing. After that, he felt a little lucky. Fortunately, he didn’t continue to act ignorant, or it would have been over for him.
(Heavenly deities above, Sun Mo, no…Teacher Sun…how did he know that my voice-recording stone is hidden in my shoe?)
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Tuoba Cong +500. Friendly (817/1,000).
This was favorable impression points generated out of reverence.
Tuoba Cong hurriedly took out his dagger and sliced the bottom of his shoe to take out the voice-recording stone…
“You don’t have to waste effort on this. Just continue holding on to that. I still meant what I said. If you get into the top 100, I will give you a superior-grade heaven-tier cultivation art.”
It wasn’t bad if he could use a cultivation art to stir Tuoba Cong’s fighting spirit.
“Many thanks for Teacher’s teaching. This student will leave first.”
Tuoba Cong bade his farewell.
Sun Mo lay down in his sleeping bag made of wool and stared at the tent’s ceiling. He was a little distracted.
Tuoba Cong’s personality wasn’t good, but if he gave up on him just because of this, he wouldn’t be qualified to be a great teacher.
What was a great teacher?
It was someone that helped students discover their own value.
Even if the student didn’t manage to accomplish anything great, as long as they didn’t step on the wrong path and harm others, they could lead a peaceful life.
As for Tuoba Cong, his talent was extremely good and it was truly a pity to waste it. But if he felt the happiest in making money, he could just do it.
After all, no one could determine what was the correct life one should lead.
“Sigh, teaching students can be so difficult!”
Sun Mo scratched his head. Most probably, saints wouldn’t be so vexed, right?
Sun Mo suddenly felt he wanted to reach the Saint Realm. Then, if he looked at this world from that height, he might be able to see things in different colors.
There were no more incidents tonight and Sun Mo had a good sleep.
But on the next morning, he was awakened by some noise.
The atmosphere in the entire campsite was clamorous. Over tens of thousands of students were eager to get started and were preparing themselves for the competitions.
“Teacher, you are awake. I’ve cooked porridge.”
Xianyu Wei who was sitting in meditation not far away immediately took a lunch box and ran over when she saw Sun Mo exiting his tent. She then respectfully passed the breakfast to him.
There was eggs, dried meat, and some salted veggies in it.
“What time does the competition start?”
Sun Mo stared into the distance. The sun was currently rising, tinting the skies orange.
“8 a.m. After Vice-headmaster Murong releases the white deer, the competition will begin.”
Xianyu Wei was eager for it.
“Mn, you should go and have your meal.”
Sun Mo felt very strange. This was such a large-scale activity, yet the headmaster of the Dragon Subduing Academy was not here to host it? It was said that he was in seclusion. Could he have died in seclusion then?
Breakfasts needed to be prepared by the students and great teachers themselves; the school wouldn’t care about this.
When 8 a.m. arrived, Murong Ye stood on a constructed platform and released a white deer on a spiritual formation.
Swish~
After a flash of light, the white deer vanished. It was teleported into the hunting grounds.
This indicated that the Autumn Hunting Sacrificial Ceremony had officially begun.
“Teacher, I’m going first!”
Xianyu Wei shouted. She then mixed herself in the crowd and set off.
Sun Mo stretched his body a bit and prepared to wander around and work hard for the sake of obtaining white stars.
