Translator: Lordbluefire

Looking at Wu Yanzhuo’s departing figure, Beardie’s mind was filled with black lines. They had lost both physically and mentally. (You’re a grandmaster-level spiritual controller, yet you aren’t even able to control your spiritual beast?)

(Although Sun Mo must have used some means, the fact that you can’t guard against it means that you’re trash.)

Sigh!

Beardie had thought that Wu Yanzhuo would be able to salvage their school’s reputation, so what should he do now?

Beardie was very gloomy. The school had agreed to be the examination ground for the 3-star great teacher examination. This was a wrong decision they had made. However, who could have expected that Sun Mo was this strong?

“There’s only one such person in several hundred years, right?”

Beardie no longer wanted to salvage their reputation. He quickly smiled to persuade Sun Mo to stop fighting.

“There are rumors that say that Teacher Sun was the one who had taught Xiao Ri`nan his spiritual control technique. It seems that this is true!”

“That’s right. The fact that Teacher Sun could make Teacher Wu Yanzhuo’s snow lion not heed his orders shows that Teacher Sun is clearly one notch stronger.”

“I wonder what kind of means he used.”

The students kept on discussing amongst themselves, assessing Sun Mo with both curiosity and respect. Their gazes then landed on Xianyu Wei, feeling very envious.

One would definitely benefit for life if they could become Sun Mo’s personal disciple.

Sun Mo decided to stop while he was ahead. He smiled at Beardie and then walked over to Xianyu Wei’s side.

Mei Ziyu had fed the fat girl an alchemical pill, and her condition had improved.

“Everyone can just scatter off.”

Beardie chased the crowd away.

“Let’s go back to the tent first and take care of your injuries.”

Sun Mo looked at Xianyu Wei, who was tall and had long legs, suddenly not knowing how he should proceed. (Should I be doing a princess carry? Or do I carry you on my back?)

No matter which it was, it’d feel disharmonious!

Usually, when one performed a princess carry or carried someone on their back, it’d look good when the two of them were within a certain height difference. However, Xianyu Wei was too tall, being already 1.8 meters before 20 years of age.

Sun Mo was 22 years old and only slightly over 1.8 meters. If he were to give Xianyu Wei a princess carry, they’d look like a big pile and it would be damaging to his image!

“En!”

Xianyu Wei agreed and then saw Song En`min walking over. She quickly forced herself to get up, lowered her head, and greeted, “Teacher!”

“You’re really Xianyu Wei?”

Song En`min sized up this tall girl, still in disbelief.

Her four limbs were long and slender, well-proportioned, and her curves were very beautiful, toned yet not bulging. They didn’t have the demonic muscular vibe.

Song En`min recalled the ferghana horse that the headmaster had. It was also filled with such a wild beauty.

“En!”

Xianyu Wei nodded.

“I’ll leave you guys to chat!”

Sun Mo felt that Song En`min definitely had something to say, and so he was planning to leave. However, Xianyu Wei reached out her hand and tugged at his clothes.

When Song En`min saw this scene, he felt his chest wrenching up, so unbearable that he couldn’t breathe.

(She’s no longer my personal disciple!)

Song En`min moaned and couldn’t help but recall the past.

Although Xianyu Wei was fat, although she was stupid, she’d greet him every day, serving him tea and giving him massages. She could be said to be very filial.

However, to Song En`min, what he needed wasn’t a servant. After all, he could buy a servant with some money from brokers, even female slaves that could be treated however he wanted to.

What Song En`min wanted was a genius who could get top positions in the personal disciples battle. He needed outstanding students who could prove his teaching capabilities.

Xianyu Wei didn’t have those and thus was given up on.

“I’m really blind!”

Song En`min regretted it, but the words to persuade Xianyu Wei to come back were stuck in his throat.

After all, he, Song En`min, was a 3-star great teacher. He had his pride.

“Xianyu, I had wronged you. Your aptitude isn’t bad. It’s just that I’m unable to bring them out.”

Song En`min lowered his head slightly and was considered to have bowed to express his apology.

“Teacher!”

Xianyu Wei’s tears immediately gushed out.

When would a student feel the most pain?

It wasn’t when they couldn’t learn something, nor when they were beaten up by their teachers. It was when they were given up on by their teacher and labeled as being good-for-nothings.

Why had Xianyu Wei put in so much hard work for the past three months?

It was because she was also restraining herself, wanting to prove that she wasn’t bad.

Right now, her wish was fulfilled. The upset feelings that were stuck in her chest instantly dissipated.

Sun Mo threw Song En`min a glance in surprise.

To be honest, he thought that Song En`min might be unwilling to accept this outcome and wanted to get Xianyu Wei back. He didn’t expect that Song En`min would apologize…

He was still very broad-minded!

“After all, he is a great teacher who can work in one of the best schools!”

Mei Ziyu didn’t find it strange.

Song En`min smiled, wanting to pat Xianyu Wei on the head, but he drew his hand back after putting it out. He then straightened his body and did a 90-degree bow toward Sun Mo.

“Teacher Sun, I’ll be leaving Xianyu in your care in the future!”

Song En`min sounded very sincere and even used polite speech.

Sun Mo quickly moved away, not accepting the bow. “Teacher Song, you are speaking too seriously.”

“What’s going on?”

The spectating students didn’t understand. However, there were always up-to-date people that knew what was going on.

Of course, there were also people like Tuoba Cong, who would use all the wonderful words he could think of to describe the story of how Sun Mo had noticed Xianyu Wei, a girl who felt so disappointed that she wanted to commit suicide after having her teacher-student relationship cut off by Song En`min. Sun Mo then gave her guidance, and she eventually won the title of the hunting king.

This was an inspiring story, and the students who heard it felt their blood boiling.

Therefore, more favorable impression points flashed past in front of Sun Mo.

Xianyu Wei looked awkward.

“What’s the matter?”

Song En`min noticed Xianyu Wei’s expression.

“I… I have yet to acknowledge Teacher Sun as my teacher.”

Xianyu Wei found this hard to bring up, feeling like she was an ungrateful bastard. After all, Teacher Sun had taught her so much…

“Haha, my position as the eldest martial brother is firm now.”

Xiao Ri`nan was very composed.

Song En`min was stunned for a moment and then sighed. “You’re innocent as ever, not thinking before doing things. Why are you still waiting there? Quickly acknowledge your teacher.”

“Huh?”

Xianyu Wei was stunned for a moment. She then subconsciously did what Song En`min said and knelt in front of Sun Mo.

“Hold on!”

Sun Mo stopped Xianyu Wei, feeling a little surprised as he looked at Song En`min. “You don’t wish to let Xianyu Wei return to your tutelage?”

“I want to!”

Song En`min didn’t hesitate. But after saying that, he smiled in self-mockery. “But I’m afraid that I’ll hold her back. I think it’s better to trouble Teacher Sun to put in more effort in the future.”

Song En`min knew himself well. Firstly, even if he were to ignore his pride and plead Xianyu Wei to accept him again, she’d probably not agree either.

If there was a better choice, who’d want the worse one?

Moreover, after being teacher and student with her for two years, Song En`min was still concerned about Xianyu Wei. If she could really release her talent and achieve things in life, Song En`min would also feel happy for her sincerely.

“It’s our responsibility as a great teacher to do our best to teach students.”

Sun Mo assured him. The current Song En`min had won his respect.

Xianyu Wei looked at Song En`min and then sized up Sun Mo, feeling a little happy inside. (It sounds like Teacher is willing to accept me as his disciple?)

This fat girl wasn’t as arrogant as Xiao Ri`nan. The more she learned from Sun Mo, the more she understood how strong Sun Mo was and the more she felt horrified. She was worried that she might not be good enough for him.

“Why are you still in a daze?”

Mei Ziyu pointed out.

“Oh!”

Xianyu Wei quickly kowtowed. “Teacher Sun, Student Xianyu Wei is willing to study under your tutelage.”

(F*ck! Take me in before taking her in!)

Xiao Ri`nan mumbled in his heart. He didn’t wish to be someone else’s junior martial brother.

“Are you sure? I’m someone from the Central Plains.”

Sun Mo looked at this girl, his expression calm. He then gave her the last test. “Given your current performance, there’d be at least 7-star great teachers from the plains who would be willing to take you in as their disciple. If you were to study under me, your development in the great plains will definitely face obstructions in the future.”

“Teacher Sun, you can’t say that.”

Beardie felt a little awkward, but he still hoped that Xianyu Wei would refuse. He really didn’t wish for such a good student to be given to someone from the Central Plains.

“I don’t care even if it’s a secondary saint. I only want to follow Teacher Sun, to be at your beck and call, listening to your teachings.”

Xianyu Wei kowtowed once again, sounding sincere.

“If I had to leave the Dragon Subduing Academy for the Central Plains in a few years or even a few months, what would you do?”

Sun Mo asked again.

Hua!

The surrounding students were a little dumbstruck.

“Teacher Sun is going to leave? Why?”

“Don’t be nervous. It’s just a question. Given how strong Teacher Sun is, the school’s management must be blind to let him leave!”

“Don’t leave! I still have many difficult questions that I want to ask you!”

Beardie smiled bitterly after listening to the students’ discussions. (It’s not that we’re blind, but no matter how great a price we pay, Sun Mo won’t stay.)

Sigh!

This was bad. When Sun Mo left, the school’s leaders would probably be labeled as neglecting their duties while in position and that they had poor judgment.

“Will Teacher allow me to go home?” Xianyu Wei asked meekly.

“Of course!”

Sun Mo nodded. (A woman who is married can still go back to their family for a visit, let alone the fact that you’re just going to be a student.)

“Then that’s settled. I’ll go wherever Teacher goes!” Xianyu Wei said firmly.

The Dragon Subduing Academy was one of the Supreme Academies in the nine provinces. Countless students viewed it as an honor to enter this place to study, and Xianyu Wei was no exception. But after seeing Sun Mo, her thoughts changed.

Although the Dragon Subduing Academy was good and the great teachers were very amicable, she might be able to ask a few questions occasionally but couldn’t possibly disturb them, could she?

However, if she were to follow Sun Mo, she’d be able to progress constantly.

Even after studying in the Dragon Subduing Academy for three years, her progress wasn’t as fast as when she was taught by Sun Mo for three months.

“Alright, I’ll take you in as my personal disciple. Get up!”

Sun Mo put out his hand to help Xianyu Wei up.

The fat girl didn’t get up immediately. Instead, she kowtowed three times respectfully first.

“What I said earlier is actually a test for you. When you’re under my tutelage, there’s no need to be concerned about old rules and regulations. Whenever you think that I won’t be able to help you improve anymore, you can leave any time. Also, if you wish to ask for guidance from a certain great teacher, you’re free to do that as well. There’s no need for you to be concerned about my face.”

Sun Mo said.

Hearing this, a commotion rang out in the surroundings.

In the Nine Provinces, even if a teacher were to beat their personal disciples to death, they wouldn’t have to assume any responsibilities. Correspondingly, teachers would also have to treat personal disciples like their own children.

Sun Mo’s behavior of letting students leave freely was a case of overthrowing common sense.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ri`nan’s eyes gleamed.

“I won’t!”

Xianyu Wei shook her head to express her loyalty.

Sun Mo put out his index finger and shook it, gesturing for the fat girl that she didn’t have to continue anymore. After meeting Li Ziqi and the others, she’d naturally understand.

Pa! Pa! Pa!

“Teacher Sun, congratulations on obtaining an outstanding personal disciple!”

Duanmu Li clapped and offered his congratulations.

Some great teachers came over as well to offer their congratulations.

The students felt very envious when looking at Xianyu Wei. Given Sun Mo’s generosity, he’d probably teach her even more saint-tier cultivation arts, right?

Cough cough!

Xiao Ri`nan walked toward Sun Mo, thinking to himself. (It’s my turn now. You guys who aren’t able to acknowledge Sun Mo as your teacher can go and be envious!)

(We’re different! We’re really different! As a genius, this is how willful I can be!)

Xiao Ri`nan hummed a tune in his heart, walked over in front of Sun Mo, and then dropped to his knees.
