Chapter 277 Student Group, Evolve!
“I’ve found a secret base that is suitable for cultivation. From today onward, you guys will be training there. But I have to say this in advance. This matter is to be kept a secret; no matter who was the one who leaked this out, their rights to use the secret base will forever be taken away from them and I’ll also punish that person severely!”
Sun Mo warned. The spirit qi in the Wind King Hall was dense and was considered a precious resource. If news of it were to leak out, it’d bring about a huge commotion.
Swoos.h.!.+
Everyone’s gaze turned toward Qi Shengjia. Strictly speaking, he was the only outsider.
“Teacher, I’ll swear it upon my head that if I were to do anything that let you down, I would die horribly without progeny in this lifetime.”
Qi Shengjia immediately raised his hand to swear.
“That’s right, everyone can just swear!” Ying Baiwu suggested this, but it was rejected by Sun Mo.
“No need!”
Sun Mo’s gaze swept through all seven of them and he said, “I trust you guys.”
“Teacher!”
Qi Shengjia felt extremely touched. He contributed another 100 favorable impression points.
Sun Mo sighed, thinking, (Thank goodness I’m a good guy. If I had the intention to deceive Qi Shengjia, I could sell him 100 times over.) “Teacher, what secret base is it?”
Tantai Yutang felt that their teacher was kicking too much of a fuss about this.
Sun Mo didn’t explain but shouted.
“Little Silver!”
“Hmm?”
Tantai Yutang frowned. What the h.e.l.l was Little Silver? He noticed that the three girls didn’t seem puzzled at all. This meant that they should have known about this long ago.
Waiting was a boring thing to do. Hence, Xuanyuan Po was planning to meditate when the hair on his body suddenly stood up, and he subconsciously grabbed onto his silver spear tightly. Swoos.h.!.+
A cloud in the shape of eight trigrams rapidly charged in from the window. As it was silver and glimmery all over, it looked extremely luxurious.
Il This...”
Xuanyuan Po was completely stunned, and his heart started to palpitate.
“Eight-gate cloud?” Jiang Leng’s flat face was instantly filled with astonishment.
Tantai Yutang was a lot more realistic. He pounced toward the eight-gate cloud purely out of instinct, wanting to catch it. However, he soon reacted to things.
(Teacher called it Little Silver. This means that they know each other.)
Swoos.h.!.+
Little Silver darted and hid behind Sun Mo.
“Hehe, don’t be nervous. I’m just greeting you!” Tantai Yutang smiled awkwardly and waved his hand at Little Silver. “h.e.l.lo!”
Pui!
Little Silver spat out a qi sword.
“Teacher, this can’t be that eight-gate cloud that’s ranked 10th in the darkness mysterious species list, right?”
Jiang Leng asked.
It looked like it, but Jiang Leng didn’t dare to believe it. This thing was far too rare and hard to catch. Many people didn’t even have the chance to see it.
“That’s it!”
Lu Zhiruo gave an introduction to everyone. “Teacher, you really quietly struck it rich. Pei Yuanli and the others are still looking for it in the Spiritwind Canyon, but you managed to get your hands on it inconspicuously.”
Tantai Yutang felt a lot of emotions right now.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Tantai Yutang +30. Friendly (670/1,000). “Little Silver, activate the teleportation gate!”
Sun Mo instructed.
A teleportation gate appeared in the guest room that was initially empty. Even Li Ziqi and the other two girls who had seen it before couldn’t help but open their eyes wide to admire it.
This scene was really amazing.
“Let’s go!”
Seeing that the preparation for the teleportation gate was ready, Sun Mo took the lead to walk over. This was his responsibility as a teacher. If there was danger on the other side, he’d be the first to encounter it.
“I’ll go first!”
Tantai Yutang couldn’t hold back and darted over. However, Xuanyuan Po was faster.
They pa.s.sed through the teleportation gate and entered the Wind King Hall. The spirit qi instantly turned dense, and Tantai Yutang felt a little drunk from it. However, he still couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
Too amazing!
This was simply too amazing! How much denser was the spirit qi here compared to the nine provinces? It’d have to be at least ten times, right? If they were to cultivate here, their cultivation speed would be at least five times faster. “Are those spirit crystals?”
Jiang Leng looked at the stones on the walls around them, his eyes and mouth agape.
Xuanyuan Po was very direct, smas.h.i.+ng off a piece with his silver spear. He then put it in his mouth and bit on it. Crunch! Crunch!
It was very hard but very exhilarating.
“Are you alright?”
Sun Mo felt a little worried when he saw Qi Shengjia standing in a daze. Qi Shengjia no longer knew what to say. (I’m just a young man from a family of farmers, and I haven’t seen the world before. But now, I first saw a mysterious species of darkness, followed by a secret base with dense spirit qi. Oh right, there are also those spirit crystals. Just one piece of them can be sold for a lot of money, right? Why did Teacher Sun even tell me such an important secret? I am not worthy.)
Qi Shengjia’s tears gushed out like tidal waves. Sun Mo was too good to him, so how could he ever repay him?
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Qi Shengjia +500. Reverence (1,702/10,000).
Qi Shengjia was an honest person, but that didn’t mean he was stupid. If he cultivated in a place like this, he’d be able to save a lot of time. He now had a real chance to strive for the longevity realm!
It could be said that Sun Mo had given him a future.
Plop!
Qi Shengjia knelt in front of Sun Mo. (There’s no way I can repay such a great favor!)
“Get up quickly!”
Sun Mo pulled Qi Shengjia up.
“From today onward, you guys will cultivate here. Every morning at 8 o’clock, I’ll get Little Silver to open the teleportation gate, and it’ll close at 8 o’clock in the evening.”
Sun Mo informed them.
“Teacher, can I just continue to stay here all the time?”
Xuanyuan Po was very agitated.
“You can, but you mustn’t run about recklessly.”
Sun Mo warned. After all, the Wind King wasn’t considered his ally.
“Ziqi, you must also be careful when you go to the Wind King to learn from him.”
“I know!”
Li Ziqi wanted to squeeze out all of the knowledge that the Wind King had, then turn it into her spiritual beast. She was going to set these two goals as a test for herself. “I won’t disappoint Teacher!”
Li Ziqi secretly swore.
“Work hard in your cultivation. I hope that you guys can s.h.i.+ne in the ‘D’ Grade newbie compet.i.tion at the end of the year, surpa.s.sing the others overwhelmingly.”
Sun Mo encouraged them.
“Teacher, don’t worry. We’ll definitely s.n.a.t.c.h the first place and won’t bring shame to you.”
Tantai Yutang was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with confidence. If they couldn’t suppress the new students from all the other schools despite cultivating in a place like this, they might as well commit suicide.
“I’ll be teaching you guys a set of movement techniques next. Watch closely!”
Sun Mo performed the Wind King Divine Steps. In just several tens of seconds, everyone’s faces were filled with astonishment, except for Lu Zhiruo and Qi Shengjia’s.
“This movement technique is really amazing!” Xuanyuan Po was astonished. “This is a peerless-grade heaven-tier technique, no, a saint-tier technique!” Tantai Yutang drew in a cold gasp. Sun Mo performed profound footsteps, occasionally being fast as strong gales, strong and powerful; occasionally being like a light breeze, fine and quiet. The profoundness of the move made them feel intoxicated.
From this, putting aside how the system had rated them, Sun Mo’s students were all geniuses, except for Lu Zhiruo. Meanwhile, Qi Shengjia couldn’t keep up. He couldn’t understand at all.
Sun Mo came to a stop. “Have you all understood it?”
“Teacher, you’ve cultivated the Wind King Divine Steps to such an amazing degree?” Ying Baiwu was astonished and filled with admiration as they had learned the Wind King Divine Steps together. She had also secretly practiced it in private, but it was too difficult. She hadn’t expected that Sun Mo was so skilled with it already.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Ying Baiwu +100. Reverence (1,400/10,000). “Teacher is so amazing!”
The papaya girl clapped, her face filled with admiration.
Although Li Ziqi didn’t say anything, she had also contributed 100 favorable impression points. What was a genius? Sun Mo was!
“Wind King Divine Steps? Teacher, is this a saint-tier movement art?”
Tantai Yutang was curious. “It’s even a peerless-grade one!”
Li Ziqi boasted.
Plop!
Qi Shengjia’s legs turned weak and he dropped to his knees again. What had he done to deserve Teacher’s generosity? This was one of the most top-notch cultivation art. If one learned it, they’d be able to bring their clan to prosperity. However, Sun Mo ended up teaching it to him. He was really too selfless.
“Alright, each of you will perform it once!”
Sun Mo instructed.
“Huh?”
Qi Shengjia was stunned. He felt like saying, (Teacher, you’ve only demonstrated it once. We haven’t remembered it yet.) However, before he could say anything, he saw Li Ziqi and the other five making a move, practicing the moves quite well.
An immense feeling of defeat immediately filled Qi Shengjia’s heart.
It was no wonder Sun Mo didn’t take him in as a disciple. He was too trashy compared to his other students.
Sun Mo was observing them.
Xuanyuan Po and Ying Baiwu were the ones with the highest level of mastery in it. Other than some minor flaws, there wasn’t much that they needed to be corrected in.
They were followed by Jiang Leng and Tantai Yutang. It wasn’t that these two couldn’t remember the moves, but that due to their body condition, they couldn’t keep up with the spirit qi supply. This led to their movements not flowing well and looking quite choppy.
Then there was Li Ziqi. She stumbled a lot and almost fell on several occasions.
Sun Mo sighed. Li Ziqi could remember all the movements perfectly, but her motor skills were too bad. There was no way to make up for this.
Heaven had given Li Ziqi an unrivaled brain but had also taken away her motor skills.
Sun Mo felt that it was just a waste of time for Li Ziqi to be cultivating. She might as well focus on her learning!
Lastly, there was Lu Zhiruo. The papaya girl could remember how each move went, but she couldn’t remember the order. This was awkward.
If she continued to practice in this manner, she might suffer from qi deviation later on.
“Zhiruo, stop for a moment!”
After saying that, Sun Mo looked at Qi Shengjia. “Why aren’t you moving?”
“Teacher...”
Qi Shengjia’s face instantly flushed up, and he almost cried from embarra.s.sment. (It’s not that I don’t wish to move but that I don’t manage to remember it at all.) However, he couldn’t get himself to say this.
Sun Mo was stunned for a moment before he reacted. Sigh, he had been pampered by Li Ziqi and his group of students that he now looked at students differently. In fact, Qi Shengjia’s standard was how most people were at.
“Don’t rush, take it slow!”
Sun Mo smiled and then his hand was encased by a cream-colored light. He then punched toward Qi Shengjia’s face.
Boom!
The cream-colored light gushed into Qi Shengjia’s brain, and he instantly received all Wind King Divine Steps’ moves as well as Sun Mo’s experience on it.
“Teacher, what is this? Great teacher halo? I feel like I can go up against ten people by myself now!” Qi Shengjia was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with confidence. “Stop talking c.r.a.p and quickly practice.” Sun Mo urged, then repeated the process with the papaya girl.
“Ziqi, you’ve remembered the Wind King Divine Steps’ incantation, right?”
Sun Mo asked. “En!”
Li Ziqi nodded. This was a small case for her.
“Very good. I’ll tell you the important points, and you’ll be responsible for teaching them.”
Sun Mo had no time to stay here to teach his students. He would be going to the old headmaster’s library to increase his knowledge.
“I’ll definitely do my best.”
Li Ziqi’s expression was solemn.
After saying that, Sun Mo stroke Lu Zhiruo’s head and left. After returning to the villa, Sun Mo opened the diamond treasure chest.
