Chapter 873: Learning from Everyone!

Translator: Lordbluefire

After meticulously interrogating Xiao Ri`nan and the others, the group of judges sank into a discussion.

“What do you guys feel?”

Ge Gen naturally felt a little intimidated at such a place.

“There’s definitely no problem.”

Xiao Ri`nan was very calm. He was a genius. Every time great teachers interacted with him, they would always be full of smiles. Moreover, despite having joined the school for many years, he had never been scolded by a teacher before.

“Cough! Cough!”

A balding middle-aged great teacher coughed twice. To Xiao Ri`nan and the other two, he said, “We already understood the process, so the judging panel decided to bestow two white stars to Great Teacher Sun.”

“Two stars?”

Tuoba Cong frowned.

“Yes!”

The bald great teacher looked at Ge Gen. “Teacher Sun’s guidance didn’t let you see any instant effect. Moreover, because you lost the competition, there’s no way to provide proof.”

Ge Gen was very anxious because Teacher Sun said that the treatment process had to be kept a secret. Hence, they could only say that Sun Mo cured them and couldn’t reveal the method.

Ge Gen felt that these judges must have assumed that Teacher Sun had used alchemy pills to cure them, hence, this was something insignificant. Ge Gen prepared to explain, but he got held back by Tuoba Cong.

“Don’t say any more. The judges have their own criteria to evaluate things. Besides, given Teacher Sun’s standard, do you think he will lack a single white star?”

Ge Gen bit his lips.

Xiao Ri`nan glanced at the two of them and walked out of the tent. He still had to fight more opponents.

“Let’s leave as well.”

Tuoba Cong also dragged Ge Gen away.

“I wonder if this Sun Mo will stay and work in the school?”

The bald great teacher sighed. “It’s a pity he’s someone from the Central Plains!”

The judges in the tent were all barbarians. From this, one could see how low the statuses of teachers from the Central Plains were in the Dragon Subduing Academy.

“If it was me, I wouldn’t stay!”

“Since his talent is so high, why is there a need for him to come to our school to be an intern teacher?”

“Maybe, it’s some sort of self-challenge?”

Just when everyone was randomly guessing, Arishan entered.

“I want to request for a star!” action

Arishan’s words caused the entire tent to fall into silence.

“Why are you participating in the liveliness?”

The bald great teacher was astonished.

During the past Autumn Hunting Sacrificial Ceremonies, it wasn’t like there were no cases of great teachers being guided by other great teachers, but such cases were very rare. Even if the teacher that received the guidance felt they had improved and benefited a lot, they usually wouldn’t come to request a star.

After all, this was a large public stage. Who would be willing to lose face? It was fine as long as they reported it in private.

Naturally, those who provided the guidance also wanted some face. They couldn’t possibly go around saying that they had guided this and that great teacher.

Doing so would be too vain.

“I’m not doing this casually. I want to request for a star!”

Arishan was very stubborn. He didn’t sense the change in the atmosphere and was completely oblivious.

“For whom?”

Someone interrupted.

“Sun Mo, Teacher Sun!”

Arishan’s tone was filled with respect.

“...”

A moment later, the atmosphere in the tent fell into silence again.

(Sun Mo’s prestige is pretty high. He can even provide guidance to a great teacher!)

Everyone stared at Arishan who was referring to Sun Mo as ‘Teacher Sun’ despite Sun Mo not being present...His respectful attitude clearly showed that he had benefited tremendously.

“What did Sun Mo do?”

The bald great teacher was curious. After sitting back at his desk, he prepared to make a record.

“Teacher Sun’s Priceless Advice caused me to be enlightened and comprehend a great teacher halo.”

Arishan’s heart was filled with joy.

Kacha!

The bald great teacher accidentally snapped the writing brush in his hand. The black-colored ink splattered on his hand and robes, but he didn’t care about them. Instead, he stood up and looked at Arishan. “What did you say?”

The others were silent, looking at Arishan.

“I can understand your reaction. Honestly speaking, I myself don’t even dare to believe this!”

Arishan sighed ruefully.

“Which halo did you comprehend?”

Someone asked.

“Learning from Everyone!”

After Arishan finished speaking, a bevy of gasps of surprise rang out.

This halo was relatively powerful. After using it, one could temporarily borrow the power of the target’s scholarly knowledge, experience, halos, and even cultivation arts.

Naturally, the user would only be able to borrow the target’s scholarly knowledge at first. Later on when they grew more proficient with the halo, they would be able to ‘borrow’ the target’s cultivation arts.

This great teacher halo wasn’t that useful in teaching students, but it was extremely helpful with regard to one’s own growth. Arishan had comprehended it, and this meant that he could save at least 20 years of effort on his path as a great teacher.

For example, if Arishan went to the lectures given by grandmasters, as long as he activated this halo, he would be able to understand the real essence that the other party was lecturing about.

“Impressive!”

“Congratulations!”

“Great Teacher Arishan, you have really profited!”

The great teachers congratulated him while feeling envy in their hearts.

This great teacher halo was considered one of the rarer ones.

Why?

Because the vast majority of great teachers were self-confident and arrogant. Bluntly speaking, they wouldn’t easily consult other great teachers nor admit that others were more outstanding than them.

They believed that as long as they worked hard, they wouldn’t be in any way inferior to the best great teachers!

In the great teacher world, this halo would cause many people to feel a sense of loathing because the more outstanding a great teacher was, the more impossible it was for them to comprehend it.

For example, Sun Mo, the twin jade annulus of Jinling; Liu Mubai and Fang Wuji, or even geniuses like Mei Ziyu and An Xinhui would never be able to comprehend this halo even if you gave them an eternity.

Because in their hearts, even if they were facing a great ancestor, they wouldn’t feel inferior.

“No wonder you would come here to request for a star!”

The bald great teacher’s lips twitched. This debt of gratitude was too great. If Arishan didn’t come to request for a star and this matter was leaked, his reputation would be finished.

“Zeze, he got three white stars in one go. Sun Mo is so outstanding that everyone will feel despair!”

This sentence made everyone nod respectively.

They also contributed a wave of favorable impression points.

“It’s a pity that his features are too common. If not, he could definitely be a celebrity teacher!”

A female great teacher sighed with regret.

If Sun Mo was a little more handsome, she didn’t mind developing a relationship with him.

“He’s already so overflowing with talent. If he were good-looking, how could we still live?”

The bald great teacher’s lips twitched.

“Yeah, if he were too good-looking, I would find him for a fight and disfigure him.”

“How much did you drink for dinner last night? You must have drunk too much, right? You really dare to brag. Have you forgotten that Sun Mo broke the record? I think you would be the one disfigured instead!”

A group of people chattered continuously. After that, a middle-aged great teacher with a stately appearance calmly added another sentence as he gestured with his manicured nails.

“I can only be friends with average-looking people. I’m going to make Sun Mo my friend for sure!”

...

In a private gold-colored tent, Wanyan Zhenghe was drinking wine. His eyes narrowed as he stared at the youth before him. “Do you remember my instructions?”

“I remember!”

The youth nodded.

“Go then. Remember, you have to seek Sun Mo for guidance when the number of people is at its greatest. Try to blow things up as huge as possible.”

Wanyan Zhenghe instructed.

The youth nodded, but he didn’t move.

“Don’t worry. As long as you complete this, the alchemy pill I promised you will be given to you.”

Wanyan Zhenghe guaranteed.

“Little prince, are you not afraid that Sun Mo can resolve my problem?”

The youth counter-asked.

“Resolve your problem?”

Wanyan Zhenghe burst out laughing. “Do you still not know how difficult your problem is? If it is really so easily resolved, why have you been wasting your life away since a year ago?”
