Absolute Great Teacher

Chapter 836: Hot-blooded Tempering

“Oh no, save her quickly!”

Xiao Ri`nan roared anxiously.

If it wasn’t for the fact that his legs were injured and it wasn’t convenient for him to move, he would have jumped down to save that fat girl.

The other spectating students revealed looks of reluctance and averted their gaze.

The momentum of that fat girl wasn’t bad. Her punch contained immense force but sadly, she missed.

The draconic human dodged past her fist and got close to her, paying her back in her own coin, punching out heavily at her face. If this strike hit, her head would be blown off.

“...”

Sun Mo had been on guard in case Xianyu Wei made a mistake. This was within his expectations. After all, he was teaching her and he couldn’t possibly let a girl die here.

But who would have expected that Xianyu Wei missed her very first attack?

(You basically have no practical combat experience!)

Luckily, Sun Mo was prepared.

A spirit wave blasted out from his index finger.

“Ah!”

Xianyu Wei was badly frightened. A gust of wind blasted into her face, and the ugly face of the draconic human caused her brain to blank out.

At the next instant, a beam of light akin to a sharp arrow penetrated the draconic human’s head.

Pu!

The draconic human died. It shattered and became motes of light before vanishing into the air.

The entire scene fell silent.

“What just happened?”

“Heavenly deities above, she actually didn’t die?”

“What was that red beam of light? A cultivation art? An arrow?”

The students kept discussing, chatting non-stop.

Xiao Ri`nan stared in astonishment at Sun Mo’s finger. What cultivation art was this?

How magical!

As a combat genius, there was no need for people to explain to him. He instantly understood how incisive this type of far-ranged cultivation arts was.

(How envious! I want to learn it!)

Xiao Ri`nan gulped down a mouthful of saliva.

“Fascinating, truly fascinating!”

Duanmu Li applauded.

“Xianyu, return!”

Sun Mo berated.

“Oh!”

The fat girl walked back dispiritedly. When she saw Sun Mo’s unhappy look, she directly knelt on the ground with a thud.

“Teacher, please punish me!”

(Sigh! How embarrassing, I actually missed? As expected, am I really trash?)

Xianyu Wei sank into self-doubt.

Sun Mo had wanted to scold Xianyu Wei, but when he saw her appearance, he instantly changed his strategy.

“Xianyu, that punch of yours isn’t bad. If you struck your target, that draconic human would be insta-killed!”

Sun Mo praised.

“Really?”

Xianyu Wei lifted her head and her eyes brightened.

“Naturally. In the future, you should always punch out with the attitude of ‘I want all things to be one-shotted’ by me.”

Sun Mo laughed.

“Hehe!”

Xianyu Wei scratched her head and felt a little embarrassed from Sun Mo’s praise. “I’ve noted it down.”

(So you are the type of student who needs praise and compliments to grow!)

Sun Mo had seen all sorts of students before. There were those who needed to be scolded, those who needed to be encouraged, those who could improve on themselves as long as you reminded them once...

For students like Xianyu Wei, the more you scolded them, the more they would perform beneath your expectations. You had to praise them instead.

“Would you be happy if you got beaten up?”

Sun Mo asked.

Xianyu Wei shook her head. (I’m not a masochist.)

“Right. That draconic human earlier wanted to kill you with its punch, why didn’t you retaliate? Even if you died, you had to break two of its ribs no matter what. If not, it would be too much of a loss!”

Sun Mo banged his fists together, resembling an unlucky person who wanted revenge after being bullied.

“That’s right.”

Xianyu Wei nodded and silently vowed. (I definitely have to win the next time.)

“If the Dragon Subduing Academy cannot get Teacher Sun to stay behind, it would be an astronomical loss.”

Duanmu Li sighed ruefully.

Teacher Sun’s performance through this period had proven that he wasn’t someone inflexible, and he would choose his guiding method according to the student’s temperament.

For example, like now, Sun Mo was more like Xianyu Wei’s friend instead.

To great teachers of the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces, status was something very important. Hence, they usually wouldn’t treat students as equals.

Even though they might be close to the students, their attitude would be out of admiration and love from a senior toward a junior instead.

(This Sun Mo really does have some capabilities.)

“That’s for sure.”

Mei Ziyu’s gaze was filled with admiration. She loved to watch Sun Mo teaching students the most. He was truly filled with charm.

“Your practical combat experience is too little. You have to fight more in the future.”

Sun Mo gave her an assignment.

“Mn!”

Xianyu Wei noted it down.

“Teacher Sun, you have taught your student. Do you want to try this out and give her a live demonstration?”

Duanmu Li asked.

“Why don’t Teacher Duanmu have a go first?”

Sun Mo modestly declined.

“My limbs are old with age, I better not embarrass myself.”

Duanmu Li rejected.

“Teacher, go and fight!”

Xianyu Wei heard that Sun Mo had defeated Xiao Di and the others. Sadly, she hadn’t had a chance to witness her teacher fighting. Hence, she really wanted to see him in combat.

“Watch carefully then!”

Sun Mo walked down the stairs and surveyed the environment.

There were red-colored patches of dried blood on the walls and floor as well as various scratches left behind by intense combat. All these caused the fearsome atmosphere to increase.

A few minutes later, a ball of light landed on the ground and transformed into a draconic human.

Not only was this lifeform ugly, but it had the barbaric and desolate aura of a ferocious beast, causing many people to feel their hearts trembling.

Swish~

The draconic human charged forward.

“For an enemy you are facing for the first time, if your defense is strong enough, there’s no need for you to be in a hurry to attack. You can simply focus on defense and see what advantages and trump cards your opponent has.”

Sun Mo dodged.

The speed of the draconic human was very quick. Its claws slashed out rapidly, but it couldn’t even touch a single hair of Sun Mo.

A minute later.

“Do you manage to see anything?”

Sun Mo asked.

“The speed of the draconic human is very fast, and its strength is also very strong. It’s a formidable enemy.”

Xianyu Wei answered.

“And?”

Sun Mo continued to ask.

Xianyu Wei scratched her head and racked her brain to think.

“Student Xiao, do you know?”

Sun Mo asked Xiao Ri`nan.

“The draconic humans don’t know any cultivation arts.”

Xiao Ri`nan was a youth who wanted face, hence, he revealed this answer. Actually, he had another discovery, but he didn’t want to say it, or it would benefit other people.

“Although the draconic human is a human-like figure, its behavior is closer to that of a wild beast!”

Sun Mo introduced in a clear voice. “You guys can just treat it like a wild beast that can walk on two feet.”

“Ze!”

Xiao Ri`nan’s lips twitched. This was something he had discovered after long observation. He didn’t expect Teacher Sun to notice this so quickly.

As expected, this teacher had some capabilities.

“Wild beast?”

“Everyone keeps calling them draconic humans and they have a humanoid shape, so I’ve treated them as humans.”

“No wonder every time I fought them, it felt different from fighting against a human. There’s always an awkward feeling.”

Some students were enlightened upon hearing this.

Bang!

Sun Mo exploded the head of the draconic human.

“Let’s check out the second one.”

Sun Mo waited. Three minutes later, another ball of light descended.

The strength and speed of the draconic human which spawned this time were somewhat stronger compared to the first one. However, there were no other changes.

Newbie!

A fist of Sun Mo exploded the head of the draconic human.

Next, the third, fourth and fifth...

Sun Mo was like breaking walnuts, exploding their heads.

This caused all the students to be dumbstruck from watching. (Are you not overly relaxed?)

“Teacher Duanmu, is the standard of the draconic humans merely this?”

Sun Mo was somewhat disappointed.

It was simply too difficult for the draconic humans who didn’t know martial arts to want to defeat Sun Mo by relying on their constitution.

“Don’t be in a hurry. After the tenth, you will know what terrifying aspects they have.”

Duanmu Li teased. “Oh right, do you want to challenge the fastest clearing record?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ri`nan couldn’t help but glance at Duanmu Li. (Do you want to harm Sun Mo and cause him to die?)

(Let alone speed clearing, those who can kill 20 draconic humans during their first attempt are so few that their number can be counted on one’s hand.)

Sun Mo smiled, not having much interest. But at this moment, the system notification rang out.
