Chapter 1068: Ancient Sage Building

“Teacher Yue!”

Sun Mo clasped his hands.

Although Yue Rongbo was just a 4-star great teacher, his talent lay in management and leadership. He was like a ship captain that could determine the direction of the ship.

Despite Sun Mo being a vice headmaster, he had no talent in it. So, he handed many things for Yue Rongbo to handle, and Yue Rongbo was doing very well.

An Xinhui was the granddaughter of the old headmaster and had to take up the responsibility as the headmaster. If not, she would have long since handed this frustrating job to Yue Rongbo as well.

“Do you guys mind if I’m disturbing you guys from chatting?”

Yue Rongbo teased. After that, he looked at Sun Mo and spoke grimly, “I just received some news. The exam venue this year will be at the Ancient Sage Building.

“What?”

Upon hearing the words ‘Ancient Sage Building’, the expressions of a few beautiful great teachers changed.

“That can’t be, right? Isn’t that place the examination grounds for 6-star great teachers?”

Mei Ziyu doubted.

For the majority of the time, the exams organized by the Saint Gate would have their formats changed frequently in order to avoid examinees from speculating. However, a few segments wouldn’t change.

For example, the personal student battle and also the Ancient Sage Building.

Because regarding this type of segment, it tested the ‘hard’ strength of a great teacher. You would pass if you could make it. If you couldn’t, even if you cheated, you wouldn’t be able to pass.

“What mysteries does that place have exactly?”

Gu Xiuxun was curious as she looked at Mei Ziyu.

She was from an ordinary background and her clan had no power or authority. Hence, she didn’t know about some high-level secrets of the great teacher world.

But Mei Ziyu, who was from an illustrious clan, definitely knew.

“The Ancient Sage Building is located on the third level of the Darkness Continent. It is a mystical academy building, and it’s said that this place was once an arena for the top-level great teachers of the Nine Provinces to give lectures in.”

Mei Ziyu explained.

“But in the past, an accident occurred during a large-scale meeting organized for great teachers. Over 1,000 great teachers died. Maybe it was because of the special nature laws of the Darkness Continent, or there might be some mysterious reasons, their souls didn’t dissipate and remained there.

“These great teachers were all very learned and were highly cultivated in terms of their mind and heart states. Hence, they were known as sages. And as time passed, this place became known as the Ancient Sage Building.

“All 6-star great teacher examinations would be conducted here, and the exam method would be for the examinee to give a lecture. If the content of their lecture was extremely fascinating, the souls of ancient sages would appear.

“And after a certain number of ancient sages appeared, that examinee would pass.”

Gu Xiuxun was dumbstruck with amazement after hearing this. “So magical?”

Sun Mo was astonished as well. This exam was quite interesting.

“The secret of the Ancient Sage Building remains unsolved until now. But we can be sure that the judgment ability of those sages is extremely high.”

Yue Rongbo added.

Gu Xiuxun snuck a glance at Jin Mujie. As expected, her expression turned relatively unsightly. “Teacher Sun’s standard in the study of spirit runes is very high. It should be enough to convince them, right?”

“If you want to lecture on something in the Ancient Sage Building, your expertise of that subject has to reach the grandmaster-level at the very least. If not, you will definitely score zero.”

Mei Ziyu bitterly smiled.

Zero points meant no ancient sages appearing.

Due to living in the Jixia Learning Palace, Mei Ziyu had seen many great teachers heading there for the examination in confidence. But in the end, they were psychologically impacted so badly that they all fell into despair.

Some of them even quitted being great teachers.

“Grandmaster?”

Gu Xiuxun felt a toothache coming. She originally wanted to reach 6-star before she turned 30 years old. But from the looks of things now, there didn’t seem to be any hope at all?

“Not only so, but those ancient sages also have a very high-level knowledge. If you want to solely depend on knowledge to make them appear for your lecture, it’s basically insufficient.”

Mei Ziyu explained. “Your lecture has to contain a hint of a visionary and sagacious view. You have to surpass common knowledge, or you have to have extremely intense personal charisma and style…

“You guys can very well imagine how difficult it must be for an examinee to convince those ancient sages during an examination where one had limited time.”

Jin Mujie suddenly didn’t feel like going for the examination anymore.

“Why has the examination this year changed so much?”

Let alone ancient sages, even if she was to lecture to great teachers, she had no idea how many people she could convince.

“I heard it’s because of Secondary Saint Zhou.”

Yue Rongbo had good buddies all around the great teacher world.

“If it was me who suffered such a huge disadvantage, I would also try to snipe Sun Mo.”

Mei Ziyu felt that it was very normal.

The prestige of a secondary saint didn’t permit others to profane it. If not, he wouldn’t find it easy to lead his team in the future.

If Sun Mo couldn’t pass the Ancient Sage Building’s test, he wouldn’t even be able to participate in the personal student battle. So, even if Li Ziqi was so powerful that she could rise to the heavens, she wouldn’t have a stage to perform.

And according to the previous statistic, the great teachers who could pass the Ancient Sage Building’s test were all veterans with deep reserves of knowledge.

The personal students of such teachers would surely be very impressive. So, Li Ziqi’s winning chances would become extremely low.

“Don’t worry, we will deal with the situation when we see it!”

Sun Mo smiled. “Other people have to wait until they are 6-star before they can visit the Ancient Sage Building, but I can visit it now. I’ve profited.”

“Yeah, you have to become the champion of the 4-star exam and make Secondary Saint Zhou die from anger.”

Gu Xiuxun waved her little fists.

After speaking for a while more, everyone dispersed.

After Sun Mo returned to the villa, he immediately immersed himself in the research of the Skyward Spirit Rune.

This was war!

On the third morning, Li Ziqi entered the operating theater after being fully prepared.

Sun Mo was here already, waiting for her.

“Good morning, teacher!”

Li Ziqi greeted obediently.

“There’s still time if you want to reject this now.”

Sun Mo looked at the little sunny egg. “I hope that you made this decision out of your own will and not because you wish to repay me.”

“I wish to grow stronger!”

Li Ziqi smiled sweetly, feeling warmth in her heart.

(Teacher, you are so gentle! Ai, I feel so envious of Headmaster An. How good would it be if I could have a childhood sweetheart like this too?)

“Let’s get started then!”

Sun Mo wore his mask and stood before the operating table. He was fully prepared.

Li Ziqi stripped off her clothes. Gradually, she blushed.

(Aiya, should I strip fully? I feel so shy! Would Teacher look down on me for being too skinny?)

(Also, I have no meat there, I’m too flat. Teacher… Probably doesn’t like such a type, right?)

Li Ziqi was depressed that her figure wasn’t good enough. As for being seen by her teacher, she didn’t feel anything inappropriate nor was she overly concerned about this.

“Lie down!”

Sun Mo didn’t even think of these things.

She was his eldest disciple and was still a child. Even if Sun Mo was a pervert, he wouldn’t fantasize wildly. But Lu Zhiruo might cause him to be slightly distracted.

There was no solution as she was truly too huge!

Sun Mo drew in a deep breath and started the operation.

Other spirit runists would surely choose to tattoo the spirit rune on the lower end of their thigh, the ‘inner’ part of their knee joint because that location wouldn’t be easily attacked.

And everyone knew that once a spirit rune was damaged, it would become ineffective. Hence, after the enemy knew the location of your spirit rune, they would definitely prioritize damaging it.

Sun Mo didn’t choose to do this because he had learned from Bai Wenzhang how to engrave the spirit rune onto the bones. Also, he would include the auto-repair function when he tattooed the rune. This was why he could directly tattoo it on Li Ziqi’s back.

This position was the most stable one after one levitated using the Skyward Spirit Rune, affording the easiest control.

“Let’s hope everything is smooth!”

The papaya girl was praying outside the operating theater.
