Chapter 887: Sun Mo Blew A Fuse, Life and Death Battle!
Right now, Xianyu Wei looked very frightening just from her appearances alone.
Her school uniform was painted with blood, while her face was covered with a mix of soil, sweat, blood, and wounds. She didn’t seem worn out, but instead, emitted a valiant and heroic aura as if she was someone well-experienced with killing on battlefields.
The girl was given a fright. When Xianyu Wei’s gaze brushed by her, she felt as if a sharp razor was brushing past her neck. She stiffened up on the spot.
“Sen… Senior, you… you dropped your deer.”
The girls squeezed out a smile, her voice trembling.
Xianyu Wei took out long strides and dashed back, snatching the white deer from the girl’s hand and then once again tying it to her waist with ropes. She then continued to head for the campsite.
“…”
Sun Mo was speechless. (Couldn’t you just hold the white deer in your hand while you head back? Why did you still tie it up? Is there something wrong with your head?)
“It’s fine. Their morale has been shattered.”
Duanmu Li chuckled.
To geniuses, Xianyu Wei’s sluggish behavior would be a perfect opportunity to attack. However, the lower-grade students weren’t strong enough that they could be nonchalant toward death.
That white deer was at least 55 kilograms.
When they saw Xianyu Wei grabbing it with one hand while tying it to herself with the other, looking to be in such ease as if she was grabbing a chicken drumstick, their courage was extinguished.
There was no suspense at all. Xianyu Wei stepped into the campsite and then, unable to hold on anymore, she fell limply to the ground.
“Xianyu!”
Sun Mo dashed over immediately, using the ancient massaging technique to stop her bleeding and pain, relieving her muscles’ fatigue as well as bringing down the swelling.
“Teacher… deer… white deer, I brought it back!”
Xianyu Wei looked at Sun Mo with her big eyes as if presenting a treasure. She grabbed one of the legs, wanting to present it to Sun Mo.
When the great teachers saw this scene, they felt very envious.
This girl’s gaze was filled with admiration and respect as she looked at Sun Mo. They wouldn’t be able to headhunt a student like this.
Sun Mo had gotten it good!
“…”
Song En`min grabbed his chest tightly with one hand, suddenly feeling a great heartache that he was unable to breathe. (If this girl is really Xianyu Wei, then this glory should have been mine!)
Pa pa pa!
After a short moment of peace, intense applause rang out around them.
Xianyu Wei’s performance had convinced all the other students.
The third-year students, especially, seemed to share the honor. After all, there were competitions between the different grades too. If Xianyu Wei could become the top student in the school, then it’d be an honor for their entire cohort and they could boast about it.
“Why didn’t you wrap up the white deer with cloth?”
Sun Mo was speechless. “Do you have to be so rash?”
“If I do that, who would know that I’m holding onto a white deer?”
Xianyu Wei blinked, saying firmly, “I want to let everyone know that a student that Teacher taught had gotten a white deer in an open and aboveboard manner. That the student didn’t rely on means and luck to become the hunting king.”
Sun Mo was stunned for a moment. (So it’s because of me.) He then smiled and patted Xianyu Wei on the head.
“I’ll be taking your gift.” Sun Mo praised, “Thank you. Your performance was very good. Even if I hadn’t taught you, you would have made great achievements on your own! Xianyu Wei, I’m proud of you!”
“Hehe!”
Xianyu Wei smiled, feeling embarrassed. (Teacher’s praise is too exaggerated. I can’t accept it.)
“Do you feel proud that she has crippled my student with one punch?”
A middle-aged great teacher was enraged.
“It’s just a competition, so they should just stop at a reasonable stage. Why did she have to deal such a strong blow?”
Hearing this, Xianyu Wei’s expression stiffened up. She then lowered her head reproachfully. “I’m sorry, I…”
“There’s no need to apologize!”
Sun Mo interrupted Xianyu Wei and then looked toward the middle-aged great teacher. “Are you stupid or are you blind? Who would be able to hold back in a situation like that?”
“It’s your fault for not having taught your student well that they didn’t know how to assess the situation. What has it got to do with Xianyu? Moreover, don’t you people from the plains talk about survival of the fittest? A loss is a loss. If you can’t accept it, then come challenge again after recuperating. What’s with the blame and reproach?”
The students whispered amongst themselves.
To be honest, it was true that Xianyu Wei had dealt heavy attacks, but they could understand that. After all, this was a hunting king competition, a competition where everyone went all out. Who dared to hold back and show mercy?
Wouldn’t that mean that they wanted to die earlier?
The middle-aged great teacher was rendered speechless. He knew this too, but he couldn’t hold it in. It was because his disciple who had the best potential had been crippled by Xianyu Wei.
Even if he were to recover completely in the future, he wouldn’t be able to reach the peak!
(This won’t do! I must seek redress for this!)
“I’m Sai Han. I’d like to seek Teacher Sun’s guidance!”
Sai Han cupped his fists together.
“Alright, make it a life and death battle!”
Sun Mo had yet to vent his fury from seeing Xianyu Wei being surrounded and attacked, being covered in wounds, just for him. (Since you’re courting death, I’ll grant you your wish.)
“Uhh!”
Hearing the words ‘life and death battle’, Sai Han’s countenance changed.
“Teacher Sun, it’s just a spar. There’s no need to be so brutal.”
Beardie came to salvage the situation and made eye gestures at Sai Han. (Are you sick of living? Don’t you know that Sun Mo has broken the record and is really good at fighting? It’s best for you to back off quickly!)
Sai Han felt a bitter taste on his tongue. (I don’t wish to accept it either, but with there being so many teachers and students watching, if I were to cower, how would I be able to teach in the Dragon Subduing Academy in the future?)
“I’ll accept the life and death battle!”
Sai Han clenched his teeth.
“Ziyu, help me take care of her.”
Sun Mo handed Xianyu Wei to Mei Ziyu, then moved to stand across Sai Han.
“I’ll be the judge!”
Beardie stood out. “Although we’re calling it a life and death battle, I hope that you can take into consideration our relationship as colleagues and not overdo things!”
Sun Mo channeled his qi while Sai Han drew his blade.
“Start!”
After Beardie called out, Sun Mo darted out at full speed.
“F*ck!”
Sai Han was given a scare. Why was this guy so fast?
In just the blink of an eye, Sun Mo had arrived in front of him. He quickly backed off, making a series of blade shadows with his curved blade, trying to stop Sun Mo.
Sun Mo performed the Wind King Divine Steps, avoided the blade shadows, and arrived next to Sai Han. He then punched out.
Sai Han slashed his curved blade backward, cutting Sun Mo’s arm.
“I’ve won?”
Sai Han found it strange how he could have hit so easily when he suddenly felt a strong sound of breaking wind coming from behind him.
“Shit, it’s a clone?”
Just as this thought appeared in his head, Sai Han was hit in the back. He fell forward, sliding out against the ground, creating a deep trench.
(Hmph!)
Sun Mo swung the hems of his teacher attire, not giving chase.
“He won just like that? Wasn’t it too easy?”
The students were very astonished.
Sai Han was very embarrassed, having a strong urge to stuff his head into the ground and act like an ostrich. He knew that Sun Mo had held back. Otherwise, he would have been dead.
“Thank you Teacher Sun for showing mercy!”
After saying that, Sai Han tried to hide his face and left. He no longer had the face to stay here.
The great teachers whose students had been hurt by Xianyu Wei had no choice but to accept things even though they were angry.
What else could they do?
Duel against Sun Mo?
Sigh!
They hated such geniuses that could challenge others of higher cultivation tiers the most!
“Teacher Sun, you might be good at fighting, but that doesn’t justify your act of breaking the rules.”
The great teacher who wore a leather hat glared at Sun Mo in contempt, reporting it to the judges, “The few words he said to the girl is a violation of the rules.”
“What Teacher Sun said was clearly to intimidate the other students not to attack. This is a threat.”
“It was an amazing competition, but it has been flawed due to Teacher Sun’s interference.”
Another great teacher started to reproach Sun Mo.
Mei Ziyu frowned. After looking at the people who spoke, she understood.
These great teachers were avid supporters of their own ethnic group. If Xianyu Wei became the champion and didn’t say anything, they wouldn’t have any objections. However, she had said that she was going to offer the white deer to Sun Mo and was fighting for him. They couldn’t let that pass.
A person from the Central Plains wasn’t worthy of such glory.
“Teach… Teacher!”
Seeing so many great teachers making things difficult for Sun Mo, Xianyu Wei looked anxious. She felt that she had brought trouble for her teacher.
“Don’t panic, don’t be reproachful. It’s none of your fault!”
Sun Mo smiled.
He didn’t care for this reproach.
There was also regional discrimination amongst people in the Central Plains, let alone across different ethnic groups. Sun Mo had broken the record for being the fastest to clear the stages in the Dragon Subduing Palace, and this had caused many people to be dissatisfied with him. Adding that up with this act from Xianyu Wei, it’d be strange if they weren’t angry.
“Sun Mo! Calm down!”
Mei Ziyu persuaded him. If they were to start fighting, things would be too disadvantageous for Sun Mo. Most importantly, they were in the midst of the examination and it would affect his results.
“I’m not angry!”
Sun Mo chuckled.
“Their pride for their own ethnicity and their belief that barbarians are more outstanding than the people from the Central Plains aren’t something bad. The most frightening thing is when the trash from the barbarian tribe curries up to the people from the Central Plains.”
“The reverse is true for the people from the Central Plains.”
Sun Mo had seen many similar things. Some bad apples from western countries had relied on the admiration some asian women had for the Caucasians and the western culture to toy with them.
Moreover, the incident concerning ‘study buddies’ had caused a great commotion back in his world.
Beardie walked over and had wanted to persuade Sun Mo a little when he heard this. He immediately froze on the spot and looked embarrassed.
Sun Mo’s view and magnanimity was what a true great teacher should be like.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Beardie +500. Respect (5,100/10,000).
“The result for this competition shouldn’t count!” The leather hat great teacher was still hollering.
“Shut up.” Beardie lashed out and then apologized to Sun Mo. “I’m sorry that you have to see such a joke.”
They must get a great teacher like Sun Mo to stay!
Beardie felt that ten years later, Sun Mo’s reputation would definitely be well-known across the entire great teacher world.
“There’s nothing funny about this.” Sun Mo looked toward the leather hat great teacher. “Let’s duel. A life and death one!”
“Uhh!”
The scalp of the leather hat great teacher turned numb.
The rest of the people were also speechless. Why was it another life and death battle?
(Can you come up with something new?)
“If you don’t dare, then shut the f*ck up!”
Sun Mo lashed out. He knew and understood the reason why these people were making things difficult for him, but that didn’t mean that he’d bear and give in.
(If you dare to offend me, I’ll strip off all of your skin.)
How could the leather hat great teacher cower under the eyes of so many people? Therefore, he bellowed, “Let’s do it then! So what if it’s a life and death battle? I’m not afraid of death!”
“Hehe, I’ll say this first. This time around, I won’t be holding back.”
Sun Mo’s gaze turned harsh.
F*ck!
Everyone felt so upset that they wanted to spurt out blood. It was really a case where someone good at fighting could act willfully.
Sun Mo looked toward Beardie. “If you aren’t afraid of trouble, do you mind acting as the judge?”
“Let’s not fight!”
Beardie smiled awkwardly. He was really scared that Bo Qie would be hammered to death.
“Don’t worry, I’m just scaring him. I won’t really beat him to death!”
Sun Mo shrugged.
“You… you’re going too far!”
Bo Qie was so angry that his lungs felt like they were going to explode. “Come out and have a battle with me!”
