Chapter 1082: Spend Big Money!

“What kind of luck do you have?”

The examinees’ eyes were red from envy.

(For the first round, your opponent had an upset stomach and was having the runs until she couldn’t fight. For the second round, your opponent smashed his kneecap by himself. Before you came, you must have prayed to all the gods and Buddhas 1,000 times, right?)

“No matter how strong one is, it can’t compare to having good luck!”

Someone sighed.

“They say that all roads lead to the capital. But some people are born in the capital right from the start, while some people own the entire capital. This is the advantage of being born in a good family.”

“His fall not only caused him to lose his teacher’s 4-stars title, but it even lost him the hard work he had put in for over 20 years, as well as the battle results he had fought hard to achieve in the previous round.”

“I really want to write a big ‘pitiful’ word on him.”

In the examinees’ eyes, even though Cao De had gone through that ‘pecking between two newbies’, resulting in him having serious injuries, it shouldn’t be a problem for him to defeat Lu Zhiruo. But now, because he was careless, he was out of the competition.

(What’s wrong with walking up the arena? Are the steps scorching? But no one really chose to walk up.)

“If it is very painful, can I help to give you treatment?”

Lu Zhiruo asked, feeling a little worried. “From that sound earlier, your bones must have shattered.”

“Boohoohoo, Teacher, I’ve let you down!”

Cao De, who had gotten back to his senses from a stunned state, broke into tears.

He attempted to get up but couldn’t do so. Each time he exerted force in his legs, he’d feel a piercing pain.

(Fight while seated? Don’t be kidding. She’s a spirit controller. Look at that monkey squatting on her shoulder and the stone spear in its hand. It looks so scary!)

“It’s all fate!”

His teacher shook his head. When a person was down on their luck, they’d get things stuck in their teeth even when drinking cold water.

“Senior Martial Sister Lu, congratulations!”

When Qin Yaoguang saw Lu Zhiruo come back, she handed her a piece of pearflower candy.

“Hehe!”

The papaya girl scratched her head, feeling a little embarrassed. However, she felt a little proud too. (If I win one more round, I will be able to help Teacher get his 4-stars great teacher title.)

“Not bad!”

Sun Mo had wanted to pat Lu Zhiruo’s head but was worried that he’d take away her luck. Therefore, he drew his hand back midway.

Lu Zhiruo, who noticed this small detail, stiffened up.

(This is bad! Does Teacher feel that my victory isn’t honorable? But I feel helpless about it too!)

Lu Zhiruo had been prepared to fight it out to the bitter death.

But what could she do when the opponents didn’t meet her predictions?

“I’m really convinced by Zhiruo’s luck.”

Jin Mujie felt envious.

The rest of the matches continued to be very exciting. Other than the ten or more seeded candidates like Huang Peng, Xu Cong, and Liu Yuzhi, the other students all had the possibility of getting eliminated.

As the battles were too intense, many people had to use their trump cards before they managed to win, resulting in them not being able to handle the third round.

He Ben won his second round too, but it was a very narrow win.

“Don’t worry, it’ll be fine!”

In the temporary treatment room, Sun Mo checked He Ben’s body while consoling her.

“Teacher Sun, I’ll leave it to you then.”

Jin Mujie felt bad. These injuries and pressure shouldn’t have been withstood by He Ben.

“I’ll do my best!”

Sun Mo smiled. He was about to perform the ancient massaging technique when a bunch of high star-level doctors pushed the door and entered.

“Teacher Sun, I’m sorry to be coming so abruptly!”

These doctors looked very apologetic. They knew that this was very rude, but they could only come with a thick skin to watch the God Hands at work.

Otherwise, after Sun Mo’s reputation became increasingly greater, they’d have even fewer chances.

“You’re making this sound too serious!”

This was a great opportunity to build a social circle. Although Sun Mo didn’t like such things, there was no helping it. After all, humans were social creatures.

Moreover, it wasn’t as if there was anything to lose if others were to see it.

When the genie appeared, it started to give He Ben a massage, fixed his bones together, and improved his blood circulation. The surrounding doctors were all astonished.

“This guy’s expression is so life-like. It can’t possibly possess a consciousness of its own, could it?”

Someone was surprised by the genie’s expression. It was because when the genie had seen He Ben’s muscles, it had revealed an admiring gaze and even stuck out a thumb.

When people asked questions, Sun Mo would answer them if he could.

There were some tough ailments that he didn’t know, but he was definitely the best in the Nine Provinces in terms of scientific training and nutritional meals.

Seeing Sun Mo sharing with them so generously, these doctors felt increased respect for him.

Ding!

“Congratulations, you’ve received a total of +7,109 favorable impression points.”

“I still have a few medicine packets from our Central Province Academy. Everyone can try them out later.”

Sun Mo took the opportunity to promote the giant medicine packet.

Of course, he wasn’t going to sell them. After all, he wasn’t lacking in money. He could instead use them to exchange some benefits.

For example, to get these doctors to come to the Central Province Academy to teach a few lessons.

Great teachers at 4-stars or higher couldn’t be moved by money nor spirit stones. If a famous school wanted to invite them, they’d either have to rely on favors or things that only they had, like knowledge or secret treasures—things that could be used to bring them improvements.

Looking at how Sun Mo was chatting smoothly with these high star-level doctors, Jin Mujie felt very emotional and envious.

Sun Mo had relied on his talent and capabilities to establish a stand for himself in the great teacher world. While she had relied on her looks to gain a bit of reputation.

As for capabilities?

Jin Mujie wasn’t considered bad in this regard, but it wasn’t even enough in the south, let alone in the entire great teacher world.

“Rest well and recuperate!”

Sun Mo instructed and then left with the group of doctors.

“Do you want a teacher like this?”

Jin Mujie teased.

He Ben was looking at Sun Mo’s back view with an admiring gaze. Hearing this, he quickly shook his head. “No…”

“Don’t be scared. Who wouldn’t want a teacher like Sun Mo?”

Jin Mujie smiled in self-mockery. “Even I want to study under his wings.”

“…”

He Ben didn’t know how he should carry on the conversation.

“For the third round, you can decide for yourself whether you want to fight.”

Jin Mujie smiled and looked at He Ben gently. “After the examination ends, I’ll recommend you to Sun Mo. It’ll depend on your performance whether he’ll take you in.”

“Teacher…”

He Ben felt warm inside and quickly got up, kneeling. “You were the one who brought me out of that small mountain village. I will never betray you in this lifetime.”

“I felt great pressure when I saw Sun Mo advancing so rapidly. That’s why I traveled to the west and south. After discovering you, I couldn’t wait to take you in.”

Jin Mujie fiddled with the hair in front of her forehead, feeling a little reproachful. “Back then, you were just a villager in the mountains who didn’t know about the great world out there. Getting you to decide at that time isn’t fair for you.”

He Ben had extremely good physical attributes. He had been hunting in the deep mountains and forests since young, building up great capabilities.

Jin Mujie guessed that He Ben’s father should be a great teacher who had committed a mistake and then fled to that village. He had then married a village girl and had He Ben.

He Ben had learned all his capabilities from the books his father had left behind.

“Teacher, without you, I might never leave that small mountainous village.”

He Ben smiled. “A son doesn’t complain that his mother is ugly, a dog doesn’t complain that its family is poor. Why would Disciple complain that Teacher is bad?”

When He Ben had found out about Sun Mo’s extraordinary achievements, he had secretly wondered what it’d be like to be his disciple. However, he gave up on the thought later.

It was because he felt that given his talent, he wasn’t good enough for Sun Mo.

Moreover, although Jin Mujie was a little worse off when compared to Sun Mo, she was definitely a notch better than the other great teachers her age.

It was definitely not a loss to be a disciple of a great teacher like this.

Moreover, what if his teacher were to become Sun Mo’s concubine?

Then wouldn’t he indirectly become Sun Mo’s disciple too?

Given his teacher’s looks and with her being by his side, Sun Mo would find it hard to hold back one day and lay his hands on her.

…

Moving on in the competition, it was Li Ziqi’s turn again.

This time around, her opponent was called Miao Huan, a young man at the age of 25 years old. He used a long blade and had a pair of huge ears.

After Tong Yiming issued for the match to start, Miao Huan quickly pounced toward Li Ziqi. He had clearly studied Li Ziqi before, and thus the battle tactic he chose was not to allow Li Ziqi to use the spirit rune rods.

Li Ziqi backed off quickly, drawing out a spirit rune rod with each of her hands, tossing them out.

Zap!

The first spirit rune rod exploded and blue lightning radiated out in a fan shape. It was a pity that the attack wasn’t a success because Miao Huan had leaped to a great height at the first instant.

Zap!

The second spirit rune rod exploded in midair. This timing was just right when Miao Huan was falling.

“F*ck!”

Miao Huan’s countenance changed. He forcibly took a breath in midair, slashing out a Crescent Slash onto the ground. He then made use of the counteracting force to leap once again to avoid the lightning sea.

Pa!

Another spirit rune rod was tossed out by the little sunny egg. Then, many fire sparks splattered everywhere. In an instant, they condensed to form many fireballs the size of coconuts, smashing out toward Miao Huan.

Flame Explosion Wild Dance!

Miao Huan swung his blade, sending out a slash of blade light to protect his surroundings.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The flame explosions were shattered, bursting like brilliant fireworks on a summer night.

Knock!

Miao Huan landed and saw another spirit rune rod exploding in front of him.

Buzz!

There were no attacks at all, but Miao Huan’s body suddenly sank abruptly, as if there was a 5,000 kilograms heavy weight on his shoulders.

Spirit Pressure Descent.

This was Bai Wenzhang’s invention.

It was primarily used to test the experimental target’s physical attributes. But after Li Ziqi saw it, she turned it into a means of attack. It was very practical.

Its range was very wide, so some people near the arena got implicated as well. Their bodies felt heavy and they knelt toward the ground.

At a time like this, the differences between people’s capabilities and experiences were shown.

Those who were stronger only swayed a little before they stabilized themselves. However, quite a few had knelt down.

“What is this?”

Many people’s faces turned pale, feeling horrified and unsettled.

Miao Huan’s body became very heavy. After dodging the first lightning sea, he was engulfed by the second wave.

Thereafter, another batch of flame bullets smashed onto Miao Huan’s body.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Miao Huan was thrown here and there from the explosions, his body charred.

The spectators around the arena were speechless. Their scalps were numb from seeing Miao Huan’s horrible state.

F*ck!

How was one supposed to win then?

Even if their reaction was fast, they couldn’t possibly be faster than her throwing out a wooden rod, could they?

Moreover, there was this spirit rune that could make one’s body heavier. How were they supposed to fend against it?

“Can someone tell me how to fight a battle that’s supported by immense wealth?”

Someone replied in an aggrieved tone, feeling that it was impossible to win.
