Absolute Great Teacher

Chapter 1174: Great Teacher Sun Has Returned!

Translator: Lordbluefire

“In the past, you didn’t know when you might die, so you lived recklessly. I can understand that. But now, you have at least ten years to live. In that case, you have to cherish it!”

Sun Mo’s tone was severe.

The greatest problem with the sickly invalid was him not treating his life as something important. He naturally cared even less about the lives of others.

Death to him was something as insignificant as eating a meal. If he died, so be it.

“Although people often say that death is like the extinguishing of a light, ashes to ashes, dust to dust. There’s nothing left behind. However, I feel that memories of that person will still be left behind.”

Sun Mo spoke from the bottom of his heart.

“These memories will remain in the minds of your parents, your wife, and your good friends. I always felt that when a person passed away, only their body has died. It’s only true death when everyone in the world has forgotten about them. On the other hand, even if he is alive, once he is forgotten by everyone, that’s also no different from death!”

This was Sun Mo’s understanding of life.

“I feel the stuff Teacher is talking about is very complicated.”

Lu Zhiruo scratched her head and couldn’t understand.

The other students were seriously listening and pondering. Even the combat addict Xuanyuan Po was very focused right now. He hoped to know the definition of death.

If he was afraid of death, he would never be able to become a spear saint!

“Yaoguang, what do you think?”

Sun Mo turned his gaze toward the lively girl who loved snacking.

“This is a question only those old scholars who were about to die would ponder over. I’m still young. What I should do is to live well day by day and not waste my time!”

Qin Yaoguang peeled a candy and tossed it into her mouth as she chewed loudly.

“This can be considered a type of understanding!”

Sun Mo originally wanted to persuade Qin Yaoguang not to waste her talent. But he gave up after some hesitation.

This girl seemed careless, but she was actually very mature. Just like her current chatting attitude with Sun Mo, there wasn’t too much respect. It was more like an idle chat between colleagues.

Li Ziqi’s gaze was filled with disdain as she glanced over.

(Where’s your respect?)

Qin Yaoguang also noticed that her attitude was a little remiss. She then stuck her tongue out at her eldest martial sister in embarrassment.

“Helian!”

Sun Mo stared at the barbarian youth. His condition was very good, and this meant that he had not been slacking off and was very industrious in training. Also, his eyes were very spirited and he even exuded a somewhat bookish air now.

“Not bad, one has to read more books before they can understand the right and wrong of things, knowing what’s good and what’s evil!”

Sun Mo was very satisfied.

The vast majority of barbarians were courageous without brains, believing solely in brute force. They loved to use their fists to handle problems. However, Helian Beifang was different from them.

Now that he was clad in long robes and had a face cloth, absolutely no one could recognize that he was a barbarian. This was the aura nurtured by reading.

“Junior martial brother Helian, I feel that you will become a general that’s equally accomplished in the field of scholarly knowledge!”

Li Ziqi teased. She was very fond of Helian Beifang’s current demeanor.

Among her junior martial siblings, she liked his style the most.

“Eldest martial sister is praising me too much!”

Helian Beifang replied politely.

“Qi, damn scholar!” Qin Yaoguang twitched her lips and mumbled. “Inflexible and boring!”

“Come over here!”

Sun Mo clenched his right fist. When a white glow surrounded it, he punched out and stopped before hitting Helian Beifang’s forehead, directly channeling his insights into Helian Beifang!

BOOM!

“This is the Black-White Soldier Chapter that Headmaster Song Yan bestowed on me. I’m imparting this to you. Learn well, I want you to do a study note every week and let me check it.”

Sun Mo gave him some homework.

Speaking of which, among his students, only Li Ziqi and Helian Beifang were more like students of the modern era. The others all had some problems.

“What?”

Qin Yaoguang’s eyes widened in shock as she blurted out, “Did I hear it wrongly? The Black-White Soldier Chapter? Isn’t that the ultimate divine art of the Black-White Academy?”

The other students also stared at Sun Mo with doubt and shock.

“This should be false, right?”

The sickly invalid felt this was impossible.

“Tantai, what do you mean by this?” Li Ziqi frowned. “Is our teacher not worthy to learn their ultimate divine art?”

“...”

Tantai Yutang rolled his eyes as he mentally mused. (Do you know that is the ultimate divine art of their school?)

Just from hearing the name, it was clearly a secret that wouldn’t be casually passed down.

In other words, only about ten people in the Central Province Academy were qualified to learn the [Great Dreams Heart Sutra]. At the very least, Sun Mo’s disciples weren’t qualified.

Honestly speaking, An Xinhui had discussed this matter with Sun Mo before. She felt that Li Ziqi, Lu Zhiruo, and Jiang Leng could learn it. As for the others, it was best to wait and see for now.

Bluntly speaking, she didn’t trust them yet.

After all, the Great Dream Heart Sutra’s might was very powerful. If the users harmed others after learning it, it would be very dangerous for the Nine Provinces.

“There’s no mistake, what I learned was the ultimate divine art of the Black-White Academy. So, Helian, you must never expose it!”

Sun Mo warned repeatedly.

“Teacher!”

Helian Beifang knelt with a thud and started kowtowing.

(This… How great of a kindness is this!? Even if I use a lifetime...no, ten lifetimes, I won’t be able to repay this debt of kindness! Even my own father wouldn’t treat me so well!)

Ding!

Favorable impression points from Helian Beifang +10,000. Reverence (31,000/100,000).

The other students were dumbfounded.

Although they knew their teacher was outstanding, wasn’t this a little way too impressive?

He actually imparted an ultimate divine art from one of the Nine Greats to an outsider!

“Headmaster Song definitely doesn’t have a daughter!”

Qin Yaoguang spoke with confidence.

“Why?”

Lu Zhiruo didn’t understand.

“If he has one, he would have betrothed her to our teacher.”

After Qin Yaoguang finished speaking, she slid her feet and moved beside Sun Mo. After that, she squatted down and removed a sweet wrapper before popping the sweet into Sun Mo’s mouth. She then started to massage his thigh.

“Teacher, I wish to learn it too!”

Qin Yaoguang acted coquettishly.

Jiang Leng and the others didn’t speak, but their gazes could convey their intentions. After all, this was a peerless saint-tier cultivation art. Who wouldn’t want to learn it?

“It wouldn’t be too late to learn it after you guys finished the homework I assigned to you!”

Sun Mo rejected and then looked at Jiang Leng. “It isn’t that I don’t want to teach you guys. However, this cultivation art emphasized military tactics and strategies. To you all, the benefits aren’t great. Besides, I’ve taught you guys several peerless-grade saint-tier cultivation arts. If you still learn more, it would be like having too much food in your mouth, leading you to be unable to chew.”

The students hurriedly nodded. “Your disciples understand!”

“You can get up too!”

Sun Mo helped Helian Beifang up. “Don’t kneel to kowtow so easily. You are my disciple. It’s my responsibility to do my best and nurture you.”

Sun Mo truly wasn’t biased.

He hoped to impart each of his disciples an excellent cultivation art based on their traits and advantages. When they mastered the cultivation art he had taught them initially, it wouldn’t be too late for them to learn more from him.

“It’s truly too good that we can meet Teacher in this lifetime!”

Xianyu Wei once again thanked the heavenly gods. If it wasn’t for his favor, how could a barbarian girl like her enter the tutelage of the most impressive rising star in the Central Plains?

(When I return to the dorm at night, I have to burn a few more sticks of incense to thank the gods.)

“Xianyu!”

Sun Mo looked at the girl and couldn’t help but frown. “What happened? Why are you so plump now?”

During this year, Xianyu Wei didn’t grow any taller, but her weight increased rapidly.

“I...I…!”

Xianyu Wei was so afraid that she wanted to cry. She instinctively wanted to say that she hadn’t been lazy, but Sun Mo’s status in her heart was simply too lofty. Hence, she basically didn’t dare to argue. She directly knelt and admitted her mistake. “P...please punish me!”

“In the future, control your mouth well. Eat less meat and sweet stuff!”

Sun Mo sighed after using Divine Sight to scan Xianyu Wei’s stats. Her physique was one that would gain fats rapidly. Although she hadn’t been lazing around, she simply ate too much.

As Sun Mo’s personal disciple, Xianyu Wei was able to get a sum of money from the financial department of the school. She had spent all of them on extra food. After all, one must know that eating in the school canteen didn’t cost anything.

Also, due to her relationship with Sun Mo, the canteen aunties would always leave the best and largest portions for her. They would also give her an additional portion for supper every day.

“If you kept stuffing yourself with food, it would harm your body!”

Sun Mo suddenly felt that only youths like this were normal, loving to play and eat and having ‘flaws’. Students like Xuanyuan Po and Ying Baiwu were working too hard.

Sun Mo used an entire morning to inspect the results of his students for the past year and helped them to resolve the problems that they had accumulated, also individually tailoring new training plans for each of them.

Other than Xianyu Wei who was a little lazier, the others were very industrious. Sun Mo didn’t have the chance to scold them even if he wanted to. After lunch, he headed to the dorm for male students to look for Qi Shengjia.

…

“Teacher Sun is back, are you not going to greet him?”

Zhou Xu glanced at Qi Shengjia who was currently studying and felt somewhat speechless. (If I were you, I would have long since stuck to Teacher Sun like glue.)

“Old Qi, it isn’t that I want to lecture you. However, you truly don’t know how to make good use of opportunities!”

Wang Hao hated iron for not becoming steel. “Who is Teacher Sun? He could just casually say things and that would benefit you boundlessly for the rest of your life. Isn’t that countless times better than studying so hard alone?”

“I…”

Qi Shengjia wanted to go, but he was worried he might bring trouble to Sun Mo and cause Sun Mo to loathe him.

“Why don’t I accompany you there?”

Zhou Xu suggested and glanced at Wang Hao. “Do you want to go too?”

Wang Hao hesitated but eventually shook his head.

A missed opportunity was a missed opportunity. If he went now, Sun Mo also wouldn’t accept him as a personal student.

(Ai!)

(I was truly so blind back then. This is such a sturdy thigh, but I missed hugging it.)

Pak!

Wang Hao slapped himself.

He was so angry every time he thought about this.

Boom! Boom!

Someone knocked on their dorm’s door.

“Who is it? The door is not locked!”

Zhou Xu shouted.

Creak!

Sun Mo pushed the door open and entered.

“I’m not playing cards today. I have no mood!”

Zhou Xu thought it was the student next door who wanted to find them to play some cards. However, when he lifted his head and saw Sun Mo, he was so frightened that his soul almost flew away. He immediately sat up violently, causing his bed to emit a creaking sound.

Bang!

Due to him being overly nervous, he even knocked his head against the bunk bed above. However, he didn’t dare to rub it.

“Teacher Sun!”

Zhou Xu jumped down from his bed and greeted him respectfully.

“Teacher Sun!”

The half-naked Wang Hao had gotten down from the bed and was hurriedly putting some clothes on.

Qi Shengjia’s other dormmates also greeted Sun Mo.

Because it was break time, everyone was here.

Sun Mo nodded and replied to everyone. After that, he looked at the honest guy.

“Shengjia, how have you been this past year?”

Zhou Xu moved a stool over and wiped it with his sleeves. After that, he passed it to Sun Mo. “Teacher, please take a seat!”

“I...I’m living very well!”

Qi Shengjia stuttered and his eyes were wet. He was so moved that he almost cried.

Boohoohoo!

(Teacher actually still remembers me! In my next life, I will definitely work like an ox or horse to repay your kindness!)
