Three days later, because of Sun Mo’s fame, all the teachers and students in Jixia Academy now knew how outstanding he was as a great teacher.

His fame then started to spread to the surrounding cities with Jixia Academy as the central point.

The medical cultivation classes were Sun Mo’s signboard, which entailed picking people to guide and using the ancient massaging technique to help them achieve a breakthrough. Moreover, his success rate was 100%.

For the spirit rune classes, after Sun Mo had displayed the spirit particle calculator, let alone those great teachers who majored in the study of spirit runes, even other great teachers were deeply shocked and were immersed in his language programming class.

“Thate the fact that I didn’t choose the study of spirit runes back then!”

This was a shout from the depths of the soul of a grandmaster alchemist. From his point of view, this subject could bring great change to the world.

Five days later, more and more great teachers went to look for Wei Ziyou and told him to announce that students were forbidden to attend Sun Mo’s classes.

There were no solutions. In order to seize the seats, these students had to queue for an entire day and night. Some of them even refused to leave after Sun Mo’s class ended. For their meals, they would simply get their good friends to buy for them, and they would simply wait in their seats for Sun Mo’s

lesson the next day.

The great teachers couldn’t ‘win’ against these people. After all, they had to give lessons to students daily and didn’t have as much time. However, they really wanted to listen to Sun Mo’s lecture and could only group up and ‘suppress’ Wei Ziyou.

“Sun Mo is still going to stay here for a while, and those students who heard his lectures won’t go again. You guys should just endure further and your turns will surely come.”

Wei Ziyou consoled them.

“But doesn’t that mean that we have to listen to fewer of his lectures?”

“Even if it’s the same lecture, there’s nothing bad in listening to it one more time. Also, I’m not the only one with such thoughts!”

“Headmaster, are you not afraid that all of us will resign and head to the Central Province Academy to teach?”

‘The great teachers had many substantial reasons, but their intent could be summed up in a few years – no compromise!

Wei Ziyou had said all he could and finally placated them. But just a day later, the great teachers who majored in the study of spirit runes grouped together and came to look for him.

“Those teachers and students basically won’t understand Sun-laoshi’s language programming class, so why the hell are they there for? Headmaster, if you don’t take charge and settle this, all of us will transfer to another school.”

Ancestor Fu was filled with anger when he said this.

Wei Ziyou tried persuading, but he soon discovered that Ancestor Fu’s attitude was extremely unyielding, causing him to treat this matter much more seriously. This was because Ancestor Fu was the head of spirit runist of their academy. Moreover, all the other teachers who majored in this subject came

to protest.

(Has Sun Mo’s teaching standards reached such a high level?)

Besides, Wei Ziyou also noticed that when Ancestor Fu addressed Sun Mo, he used ‘Sun-laoshi’.

Since these teachers could work in the Jixia Academy, one could very well imagine how proud and confident they were. But now, all of them had been ‘subdued’ by Sun Mo.

Such pressure was really something Wei Ziyou didn’t dare to neglect. Hence, he immediately sent out an order on the very day, saying that students and teachers who didn’t major in spirit runes couldn’t attend the lectures and had to give up the opportunity to others.

After that, Wei Ziyou suffered once more as teachers and students from the other subjects began to protest.

“Teacher Sun’s lessons are the treasures of all teachers and students. Why can’t we listen?”

This time around, the ones leading the group were three ancestors.

“But you guys don’t major in the study of spirit runes, right?”

“Ljust so coincidentally want to speak to the headmaster about this. I’m preparing to learn spirit runes. So, after I finish teaching the next semester’s botany classes, I won’t be responsible for it anymore.”

“Me too!”

“The programming of the spirit rune language is then the future of humanity!”

Over ten great teachers expressed on the scene that they wanted to change their majors to the study of spirit runes.

Wei Ziyou felt that they were joking, but after seeing them discussing about spirit runes so excitedly, he didn’t dare to be sure anymore.

“It’s over, I’ve created a huge trouble for myself!”

Wei Ziyou felt extremely vexed.

The simplest way was to move Sun Mo to a 1,000-pax classroom. But why would Sun Mo agree?

One must know that the more the number of students, the greater the energy Sun Mo had to expend. After all, Sun Mo still needed to rest and prepare himself for the Jixia Rostrum lecture.

“Ican only go all out.”

‘Wei Ziyou was preparing to enter an allied agreement with the Central Province Academy and set up long-term student exchange programs to get Sun Mo to give a few more lectures.

Honestly speaking, ever since the Jixia Academy was established up until now, they had never been so miserable before.

With regards to good teachers, sometimes even the headmaster didn’t need to appear personally to headhunt and they would flock over willingly.

The effect of the lectures was extremely good and it boosted Sun Mo’s fame. However, there was also a little disadvantage and that was the number of people seeking guidance from him was simply too many.

Sun Mo was currently nurturing his fame, which also means that he wanted to accumulate more fame. Hence, it was still a must for him to smile and welcome them. But after so many days, it had frankly been extremely tiring for him.

(Why do I have to rush into becoming an 8-stars? I have to lead a life filled with so much suffering. Where are the famous courtesans that I can hug with both my left hand and right? Even if there are no famous courtesans, it would still be good if there are maids warming my bed for me!)

Sun Mo felt that he couldn’t continue living like this.

Dang! Dang! Dang!

The melodious bell chimes rang out, akin to the footsteps of graceful ladies.

“Alright, the lecture today has concluded!”

Sun Mo closed his lesson plan with no hesitation.

However, the students were unhappy and begged for Sun Mo to continue speaking some more.

“Your zeal in learning makes me very moved, so I have decided to…”

Sun Mo lengthened his words. “Reject!”

“Boo!”

Several people made booing sounds. After that, some started laughing.

‘Teacher Sun’s lessons were always so fun.

Not only was his teaching capabilities very strong, but he was also humorous enough. Many great teachers were inflexible and their style of teaching was very rigid. But Sun Mo was like an elder brother next door that would accompany you in smiling and laughing.

“How good would it be if Teacher isn’t a teacher!”

A female student was fantasizing. “I would be able to marry him then.”

“You can’t make it as you are too stupid. You are not worthy to match up to Teacher!”

Someone ridiculed her.

“But I have huge papayas!”

The little female student placed her hands before her chest and heaved it up. “I can raise our kids and make them fair and fat!”

“No matter how large your papayas are, how can you compare to senior school sister Lu? Every time I see her, I’m worried her shirt might burst.”

The female students immediately started gossiping and discussing what type of girls Sun Mo liked.

‘There were still several students who weren’t willing to give up and directly entered the building to talk to Sun Mo.

“Teacher, I have a question about the Chongyang Art!”

Sun Mo patiently answered four to five questions before cutting down with his hand and indicating for everyone to remain silent.

“The next lesson is about to begin. If you guys act like this, you will disturb everyone else. Besides, I’m very busy now and I can’t keep answering your questions.”

Sun Mo smiled. “How about this? I will get my students to set up a platform in the field. No matter who it is, you guys can feel free to challenge them. As long as a person can last for more than 50 moves, I will give an hour of private class time to them.”

Wow!

The students were immediately agitated.

“However, if you guys fail the challenge, don’t come and look for me temporarily.”

After Sun Mo finished speaking, he could finally leave.

‘The Heaven-Ask Library was always packed to the brim. However, it was surprisingly quiet because the teachers and students who entered the library would do their utmost not to make any noises.

Recently, whenever Sun Mo was free, he would come here to read. Although he had Retentive Memory, there were simply too many books here, and it was impossible for him to remember every single thing. Moreover, the Jixia Academy wouldn’t allow people to copy the content.

“Good afternoon Great Teacher Sun, are you not going to challenge the two mysterious books?”

‘The administrator was a kind-looking and amiable old man. When he saw Sun Mo, he took the initiative to come over and pass him a paper bag. “This is a deep-fried dough cake from the Chu Bakery. It might be cheap but it is very delicious. Teacher Sun, how about tasting it?”

“It’s fine!”

Sun Mo rejected with thanks and headed to the fifth floor.

This library had a total of five levels. The higher the level, the more valuable the books were. In fact, for the books on the fifth level, only those with entry plates granted by the headmasters would be permitted entry. Even then they could only read there and not bring the book away.

Sun Mo naturally had such qualifications.

‘The number of people here was very few, and Sun Mo could finally enjoy some quiet time. He then decided to head to the archeology section.

Many of the books here were excavated from ruins in the Darkness Continent, and some hadn’t been fully deciphered yet. Maybe, some of these books contained a value that was waiting to be discovered.

After a whole two hours, Sun Mo finally stretched his body and rubbed his eyes. After that, he hesitated for a while but eventually still walked toward the northwest direction.

There was a book placed on a bookshelf made from Chinese redwood there.

The book had no title, and it was about half an inch thick. Its cover was made of black fur from some ferocious beasts and as for the content within, Sun Mo had never seen it before either. This was because every time he took this book, before he had time to open it, it would teleport back to the shelf.

Sun Mo sighed deeply and stretched out his hand to take this nameless book again. He then used his fastest speed to flip through it, but at the next instant, it began to shine with a golden glow and vanished from his hand.

Sun Mo felt an impulse to curse.

“Teacher Sun can’t do it either!”

Whispers drifted over from the surroundings. There were tones of regret, nonchalance, and joy in Sun Mo’s misfortune.

From their point of view, Sun Mo might be very outstanding, but that was just it. If not, why wouldn’t he be qualified enough to read this book?

Sun Mo activated Divine Sight to look at this book, but it only showed ‘unknown target’.

“Teacher Sun, why don’t you give the other book a try?”

A7-stars great teacher took the initiative to greet him, half-teasingly and half-seriously. “You can’t possibly be afraid of being mesmerized and drawn in completely, right?”

‘There were two magical books in the Heaven-Ask Library. Other than this book that refused to let people hold it, there was another book that would cause those who read it to be completely mesmerized with no exceptions.

Be it wealthy nobles and officials or common peddlers, as long as they took a glance at this book, they wouldn’t be able to extricate themselves and wanted to read it every day.

If one forbade them from touching it, they would steal, barge in, start a fight, or threaten to suicide. So, without the order from the headmaster, no one could touch this book.

Naturally, Sun Mo was an exception to this rule.

“Ljoined the school a decade ago and even now, I don’t have a chance to see that book. Teacher Sun, why don’t you go and look at it and allow me to broaden my horizons?”

A4-stars great teacher pleaded with Sun Mo.

The surrounding great teachers also started to raise a commotion.

Sun Mo didn’t want to go because there was surely some sort of profound secret in the mystery book. If he couldn’t decipher it, he would surely fall for the trap. However, his achievements were so outstanding and he didn’t want others to look down on him, so he eventually decided to challenge it.

“Sure, let’s do it!”

Sun Mo immediately headed to the west.

On an isolated stone shelf, a stone box was placed there. Sun Mo first took his time to survey it normally before scanning it again with Divine Sight. Only after he had confirmed he couldn’t see anything out of the ordinary did he decide to open it.

The great teachers who followed Sun Mo here immediately stretched their necks and tried to peer inside the area Sun Mo was in.

Its external appearance looked like an extremely normal book, akin to a picture book for kids. But it was unknown why the impulse suddenly rose in the hearts of everyone, making them feel like flipping the book open.

“This book is inauspicious. Teacher Sun, you should hurry up and close the box.”

A great teacher persuaded him..
