Chapter 428: Central Province Academy’s Number One Person
The genie was burly, its muscles bulging up, looking like it wasn’t someone to be trifled with.
Bai Ziyu compared their physiques and felt that he wasn’t able to defeat it. However, he soon noticed that there wasn’t a need to think about this problem anymore. It was because he was still kneeling, unable to stand up.
“Let go of Brother Qi!”
If Qi Siyuan was harmed, the Eldest Princess wouldn’t let him off. Given how much she doted on her son, she’d definitely get a big bunch of men to burst his butt hole.
“No...”
Qi Siyuan yelled again.
Bai Ziyu felt anxious. Brother Qi must be in great pain, thus, he shouted even louder, wanting to get Sun Mo to stop. However, at the next instant, he heard Qi Siyuan spurted out a ‘stop’.
His voice was in a very high pitch, completely refreshing Bai Ziyu’s recognition of Qi Siyuan. Moreover, it had a hint of domineeringness and nervousness coming through. The feeling was as if he would kill whoever was going to stop this muscular genie from giving him a massage.
Bai Ziyu was stunned.
Qi Siyuan squinted his eyes, his expression in agony, yet there was a hint of indescribable enjoyment. This skill was something that even an old bathtub worker who had worked in the Huaqing Pool for 30 years wouldn’t have.
Wisps of purple liquid flowed out from Qi Siyuan’s skin, causing a pungent scent to permeate in the air.
“This is...”
Bai Ziyu was surprised.
“Toxin!”
Sun Mo said very simply.
A minute later, the ancient massaging technique ended and the genie disappeared.
“Hmmm? Why is it gone? Do it for another hour!”
Qi Siyuan was very disappointed when he saw the genie disappearing. He yelled anxiously, “Don’t leave! I’ll pay more!”
“What the hell are you talking about?”
Sun Mo was completely speechless. (Where do you think this place is?)
“Teacher sun, what cultivation art is this?”
Qi Siyuan asked respectfully. He couldn’t help but twist his body slightly. It felt so good as if he had gotten a thorough bath from head to toe after being dirty for a few months, with all impurities being wiped away.
“The Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands!”
Sun Mo explained, “The poison in your body isn’t something that can be cleared in one to two sessions. Moreover, the blood fog will inevitably take away some of the essences from your body. Hence, when you go back, eat more good things and get some nourishment.”
Qi Siyuan’s countenance turned serious and he bowed respectfully. “Thank you, Teacher Sun!”
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Qi Siyuan +300. Friendly (500/1,000).
Sun Mo received this bow at ease.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
Qi Siyuan didn’t know how to continue the conversation, The reason he came today was to remove the teacher-student relationship between Sun Mo and his cousin. However, he was now saved by Sun Mo. Given Qi Siyuan’s character, he couldn’t get himself to burn the bridge and be an ingrate.
“Can... can you let us get up first?”
Bai Ziyu spoke up, breaking the silence.
Both Sun Mo and Qi Siyuan turned to look over.
“Uhh!”
Bai Ziyu smiled awkwardly. “My... my kneecaps are hurting from the kneeling!”
Sun Mo removed the great teacher halo. After Bai Ziyu and the others got up, they didn’t know what they should do. All of them looked toward Qi Siyuan, waiting for him to speak.
“Teacher Sun, acknowledging a teacher is too big of a matter. Even if I believe you, my mother wouldn’t. Therefore, it’s better for you to make preparations earlier!”
After Qi Siyuan said that, he cupped his fists together. “This student will be taking his leave!”
Hearing this sentence, Sun Mo saw Qi Siyuan in a new light. He hadn’t wished to give Qi Siyuan guidance, but now he changed his mind. “Don’t continue to pursue strength. Given your aptitude, you should seek for quick attacks, focusing on lightness and agility.”
Sun Mo gave him a pointer.
“This...”
Qi Siyuan was stunned and he looked at Sun Mo with an astonished expression. (How do you manage to tell? I haven’t told anyone about how I wish to become burlier.)
Everyone would more or less have some dissatisfaction toward themselves. Since young, Qi Siyuan had always been on the thinner side. Therefore, he craved the exhilaration from crushing an enemy with one punch. The cultivation art he had selected were all strength-typed ones.
Meanwhile, Zhang Mingyu stood at the side, looking troubled.
“My aptitude isn’t that good?”
Zhang Mingyu sank into self-doubt. He hadn’t forgotten that his father was always praising him, saying that he had exceptional talent and that his son would definitely be more successful than he was.
However, why did Sun Mo say that his aptitude was mediocre?
Zhang Mingyu didn’t wish to believe that. However, Sun Mo’s series of guidance were exceptional. They proved his capabilities in teaching, and they made it hard to not believe Sun Mo.
“I think I better go back and ask Father about it.”
Zhang Mingyu let out a sigh, feeling unsettled.
“Hey!”
Sun Mo walked up to Zhang Mingyu. “Give me your hand!”
“Huh?”
Zhang Mingyu subconsciously put his hand behind his back. Then he started to feel pain again. (You can’t be thinking of breaking another one of my fingers, could you? I didn’t offend you this time around!)
“Give me your hand!”
Sun Mo repeated.
As a result, Zhang Mingyu put out his hand. Then, Sun Mo held onto his broken finger and activated the bone setting technique.
“What is he doing?”
The young man who had a crush on Xu Rui was baffled.
“Feeling his bones [1]?”
Xu Rui guessed.
“Isn’t he a teacher? Does he also have a part-time job in glyphomancy and fortune-telling?”
After Bai Ziyu said that, he felt that this was a great possibility. Otherwise, how could he guess so many things correctly? Excellent. He should let Sun Mo tell his fortune as well.
The grandmaster-grade bone setting technique’s effects were extremely strong. A minute later, Sun Mo released Zhang Mingyu’s finger and walked toward the villa.
“Hmmm? It’s done?”
Bai Ziyu was surprised. “Why didn’t he say the results?”
“It can’t be that he couldn’t tell, right?”
Someone guessed.
“Hmmm? My finger is fine now!”
Swoosh!
Everyone’s gazes turned over, looking surprised.
“Are you talking about the finger that Sun Mo had broken earlier?”
Xu Rui asked.
“Impossible. It takes 100 days for injured sinews or bones to heal. No matter how good one’s physique was, it’s impossible to recover this fast!”
Bai Ziyu shook his head and doubted. (Setting a broken bone with just some touching? Do you think that you’re joining a broken rope?)
Zhang Mingyu didn’t say anything but just raised his left hand.
Usually, if a finger bone was broken, it’d bend, become red and swollen, and be painful. However, other than looking a little red, Zhang Mingyu’s finger didn’t have any other abnormalities.
“Do you see it?”
Zhang Mingyu bent his finger, his face in surprise. “This is too amazing!”
Everyone fell silent. This Teacher Sun wasn’t simple!
“Where am I?”
A puzzled voice suddenly rang out and everyone turned their heads. They saw that the Ignorant and Incompetent effect had disappeared, and Bian Yuanshan had returned to normal. However, due to the side effects, he was still in a bit of a daze.
“What did I do?”
Bian Yuanshan’s vision gradually returned to focus. “Where’s my concubine?”
Looking at Bian Yuanshan’s foolish appearance, everyone shuddered. They swore that they’d definitely not offend great teachers who had comprehended Ignorant and Incompetent.
“Ziyu, go check up on that Sun Mo.”
Qi Siyuan said, “Let’s go to the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion for a drink and wait!”
...
In the evening, before the drinking banquet ended, Bai Ziyu had already come back.
“How is it?”
Zhang Mingyu couldn’t wait and asked.
“Do you guys know who is the most famous teacher in the Central Province Academy?”
Bai Ziyu tried to keep things in suspense.
“Liu Mubai?”
Xu Rui had heard about this person, one of the twin jade annulus of Jinling.
“Guess again!”
Bai Ziyu shook his head.
“Jin Mujie!”
Zhang Mingyu gulped. He had secretly gone to the Central Province Academy to see Jin Mujie. He had camped for half a month before he managed to get a glimpse of her.
Her reputation was really true. Her figure and looks really make one feel parched. Her round butt, especially, gave guys a strong urge to play with it for an entire year.
“No!”
Bai Ziyu wore a smile that seemed to suggest that all men would understand.
“It can’t be Sun Mo, right?”
Qi Siyuan asked.
“It is Sun Mo!”
Bai Ziyu drank a sip of wine. “He defeated the Jixia Learning Palace’s Qin Fen at the student recruitment meet, recruited five students, then gained the rights to become an official teacher. He then gave a perfect lecture for his first public lecture, with an overwhelming number of people attending it.
“Since then, Sun Mo’s Medical Cultivation lesson has always had an overwhelming attendance. It’d be impossible to get a seat if you don’t go two hours in advance.”
“Isn’t that too much of an exaggeration?”
Zhang Mingyu didn’t believe it. Even the appeal of a great teacher wasn’t that great.
“What is a Medical Cultivation lesson? Why haven’t I heard of it before?
Xu Rui was lost.
“It’s a class that Sun Mo came up with. It’s said to be very helpful for students. Most importantly, Sun Mo has God Hands!”
Bai Ziyu recalled how the students were wearing respectful expressions when he tried to find out about Sun Mo from them.
This meant that Sun Mo had a high status in the school, and the students’ impression of him was extremely good.
“God Hands?”
Zhang Mingyu’s heart throbbed.
“Yes, he’s able to find out about a student’s realm, condition, and concrete time of advancement just by touching them. It’s also said that with his God Hands, he had been able to uncover a thief who stole his roommate’s stuff!”
There were too many astonishing stories about Sun Mo. Bai Ziyu managed to gather a lot of them when he randomly asked around.
“Is this for real?”
Even the calm and composed Qi Siyuan started to feel surprised.
“Anyway, this is what all the students in the Central Province Academy say. Oh right, Sun Mo’s character was very good. He had bashed up the Central Province Academy’s Logistics Department Head for a girl who carries swill. However, his most brilliant achievement is that he had led the new student group to get first place in the newbie competition.”
As Bai Ziyu said this, he started to have admiration for Sun Mo. This person didn’t have any flaws at all. “Oh right, the Central Province Academy has advanced and is now a ‘C’ grade famous school.”
“Aren’t they on par with the Myriad Daos Academy then?”
A young man felt displeased because he was a student from the Myriad Daos Academy. If this was the case, he wouldn’t have a sense of superiority when facing the Central Province Academy’s students.
“What other gossips are there?”
Xu Rui continued to ask, her gaze filled with curiosity. She craved to find out all the information about Sun Mo.
“Xu Rui, you couldn’t have fallen in love with him, right?”
The young man who had a crush on Xu Rui asked in a teasing tone.
“What is it to you?”
Xu Rui rolled her eyes and urged Bai Ziyu, “Say it quickly!”
“Hehe, you guys will definitely not expect this. Sun Mo has a fiancée!”
When Bai Ziyu first heard of this news, he was also very astonished.
“So what if he has a fiancée? I have had a betrothal arrangement since I was a kid!”
Zhang Mingyu felt that Bai Ziyu was kicking up too big of a fuss about this.
“Don’t interrupt!”
Xu Rui urged Bai Ziyu to say it quickly.
“It’s An Xinhui!”
After Bai Ziyu said that, the entire room was completely silent. Even a few young men who didn’t care about Sun Mo and were playing drinking games all came to a stop as well, looking at Bai Ziyu in astonishment.
“You must be talking crap, right?”
Qi Siyuan didn’t believe him.
