Absolute Great Teacher

“I don’t dare to guarantee that I’m the only one who knows about this plant. But the ancient books that have recorded it wouldn’t exceed the number of fingers in your hands. And even those who might know of it might not have discovered its value. Or even if they did, they definitely wouldn’t announce it publicly.”

Sun Mo was very confident. After all, the rewards from the system did have a guarantee in their quality.

Wow!

The eyes of the students brightened. Although they didn’t know whether they could earn money or not, being able to learn such rare knowledge was already a form of wealth itself.

Wanyan Zhenghe suddenly felt extremely unhappy when he saw this. Hence, he couldn’t help but speak out and question.

“Teacher Sun, even if this plant is everything you said it to be, but if everyone knew of it, wouldn’t that mean that I can’t make money out of it anymore?”

Wanyan Zhenghe had wanted to keep a low profile and silently execute some toxic means. However, he truly couldn’t endure it anymore.

Looking at the excited looks on the faces of the ordinary students, it was as though they had earned huge profits from this oil wheat.

But after hearing his words, the students immediately grew nervous.

In the minds of the people in the Nine Provinces, only things you uniquely knew of could earn you some money.

“There are so many of you here that have attended my class. However, why are the capabilities of each of you different?”

Sun Mo counter-asked.

Wanyan Zhenghe frowned. He didn’t understand what Sun Mo was trying to do.

“There are many people who read the same types of books. But why would some score well and some score badly in exams?”

Sun Mo rapped his fingers on the blackboard. “Being able to transform knowledge into nutrients for self-growth is also a type of talent.”

Pak, pak!

The braided-hair guy involuntarily applauded.

Teacher Sun’s words truly hit the mark.

Wanyan Zhenghe immediately glared over. (Do you want to die?)

The braided-hair guy’s expression turned dark and he hurriedly stopped clapping. But there was even more applause ringing out.

At the same time, Sun Mo received quite a bit of favorable impression points.

Just when the students were fully focused, Sun Mo gave another brilliant display of his lecturing skills. The end result was obvious even without words to explain it.

Sun Mo’s lecture was an overwhelming success!

During the first day, his popularity exploded.

After a few more days, when the incidents today circulated, even more students would be coming to listen to his lesson.

“I don’t believe you, Jiang Ji, can get so many students to attend your classes!”

Sun Mo felt that if they purely competed in lecturing, him becoming the top-ranker was something obvious.

“Hmph. I’ll let you be complacent first. Two to three days later, you will definitely cry so bad that you want to die,” said Wanyan Zhenghe.

He used his fingers and forcefully kneaded a spice bag as he revealed a prankful smile. (No matter how great the fame you accumulate today, I will be able to destroy it three days later.)

Sun Mo then explained about the plant concisely. He emphasized on the important points like its growth habits, its various characteristics during different seasons, and the way to extract its oil.

The process of botany was simply four words… Read more, memorize more. The process was a very dull one and if one didn’t like plants, they would truly grow to loathe this subject and would feel bored easily.

Luckily, Sun Mo only needed to lecture for three months. Otherwise, even with his rallying might, the number of students coming to listen would decrease after he ran out of new plants to introduce.

“From today onward, I will explain and introduce a different darkness plant randomly in my future lectures.”

After Sun Mo said that, a student immediately grumbled.

“Teacher, you are so cunning!”

Actually, some of these people only wanted to listen to introductions about new darkness plants. By not fixing its exact time, the students would always attend for fear of missing out.

Sun Mo smiled and didn’t deny it. He took out his pocket watch and glanced at it.

There were only five minutes left before the class ended.

“After everyone finishes taking down the notes, pay more attention to me because the main point of this lesson is coming.”

Sun Mo’s lecture method was to treat the students as friends. He didn’t keep putting on a solemn expression on his face.

The spirits of the students immediately stirred.

What?

Informing everyone about a rare darkness plant wasn’t considered the highlight?

“Little prince Wanyan, are you not prepared to explain your actions?”

Sun Mo suddenly asked.

Swish~

Everyone’s gazes turned to Wanyan Zhenghe.

“Explain what?”

Wanyan Zhenghe pretended to be perplexed as he counter-asked. However, his heart was pounding rapidly. (It can’t be right? Did Sun Mo discover it?)

(That’s impossible. It’s a secret medicine I begged my teacher to give. It’s absolutely impossible for Sun Mo to know it. That’s right! Probably, he wants to suppress me due to him being in the limelight now.)

“Can you explain why you are so ruthless?”

Sun Mo’s tone turned sharp.

“I don’t know what you are talking about!”

Wanyan Zhenghe stood up and wanted to leave.

“Kneel!”

Sun Mo berated.

Bzz!

Profound Words were activated, and a golden halo immediately illuminated the classroom. When the light spread to Wanyan Zhenghe’s body, he completely had no control over his legs and knelt directly with a thudding sound.

Ah!

A girl screamed, but she soon shut up.

For a time, the entire classroom was so quiet that one would be able to hear a pin if it dropped.

“It can’t be, right? He’s so fierce! He actually wants the little prince to kneel!”

“That fellow is finished!”

“Sigh, why must he do this? Can’t he simply take a detour around a dog like this little prince?”

Various thoughts appeared in the hearts of the students, but everyone with no exception was somewhat worried for Sun Mo. It was very rare for those who offended Wanyan Zhenghe to have a good ending.

Wanyan Zhenghe felt pain in his knees. He drew in a cold breath of air and then felt stunned. (I’m actually punished and kneel down? How preposterous.)

“Sun Mo, you dare…?”

“Shut up!”

Sun Mo berated.

Hence, Wanyan Zhenghe’s mouth immediately shut. This was done forcibly and he even accidentally bit his tongue.

Seeing how unlucky Wanyan Zhenghe was, the students who found him unpleasant to the eye now felt joy in their hearts.

This school bully finally received his just dessert.

“Everyone, do you guys smell something sweet in the air?”

Sun Mo sniffed. Actually, he had smelled it earlier.

The majority of students shook their heads, but a few students with sharp noses nodded.

“Is that the fragrance from some kind of rouge?”

A male student was puzzled.

Everyone would like to look beautiful. The rouge from Jiangnan had flowed to the plains, but they were considered top-tier products that only nobles could afford to use.

“The smell is from a powder that’s ground from the flower bud of the cherryoluo.

Sun Mo introduced.

“What’s that?”

The students didn’t know, but Duanmu Li who was standing outside revealed a look of joy. Sun Mo’s botany knowledge was truly vast. He even knew such a remote thing.

“It’s a type of plant that grows in the Darkness Continent. In order to prevent itself from being eaten by herbivores, its flowers would excrete a type of pollen that would drift along with the wind. When it comes to contact with skin, rashes or swelling pimples would appear, including serious itchiness. It would cause you to itch so bad that you would want to scratch your skin off.”

Sun Mo looked at Wanyan Zhenghe. “Little prince, am I correct?”

The students around revealed expressions of fear. No wonder Wanyan Zhenghe didn’t think of ways to make trouble for Sun Mo now despite having suffered such a huge disadvantage in the morning.

So, he had acted secretly.

(But why did you have to drag everyone in?)

Wanyan Zhenghe wanted to conceal this, but the shock in his eyes was apparent for all to see.

(How did you know? This secret medicine is a unique prescription that only my teacher has!)

Truthfully speaking, Wanyan Zhenghe also didn’t want to implicate everyone. His original intention was to make Sun Mo come in contact with it before the lesson started. However, Sun Mo had been prepping for the lesson and he didn’t have any chance to act.

Besides, when he saw Sun Mo flaunting, Wanyan Zhenghe couldn’t bear it anymore. Hence, he decided to ignore these ordinary students and directly acted.

In the end, he was exposed.

Sun Mo walked toward Wanyan Zhenghe. “I’m teaching botany, so you want me to lose face on this subject. This is a good idea. You have the ruthlessness and decisiveness of a man from the plains. However, your actions are too shameless.”

“You are even willing to harm your comrades.”

As Sun Mo spoke, he grabbed Wanyan Zhenghe by the hair and hoisted him up.

When had this little prince ever suffered such humiliation? Also, due to the pain from his scalp, he directly punched out, aiming for Sun Mo’s nose.

Pak! Pak!

Sun Mo slapped his punch away with the back of his hand.

Six slaps directly fanned Wanyan Zhenghe’s face, causing it to swell up.

(If I don’t exhibit my might, you will take me for a sick cat instead of a tiger, right?)

(So what even if you are a little prince?)

(This daddy isn’t a citizen here nor am I a teacher in the Dragon Subduing Academy. So what can you do even if I hit you? If you are capable, come to Jinling and stir up trouble for me.)

Right now, Sun Mo also did have some foundation in Jinling.

He was the God Hands. The person who solved the Battlegod Canyon!

If he won the first place for this year’s 3-star examination, he would become a three-time champion that acquired three stars in a single year. Even if Wanyan Zhenghe wanted to hire an assassin, the assassin probably would turn and betray him to get some benefits from Sun Mo instead.

The greater the fame of a great teacher, the fewer people would dare to assassinate him or her.

Usually, if a man from the Central Plains were to hit Wanyan Zhenghe, it would surely cause the students of Jin Country to view him with enmity. After all, the little prince represented the face of Jin Country.

But this time around, no one said anything.

Pak!

Sun Mo snapped his fingers and dispelled Profound Words.

“Sun Mo, I want you to die.”

Wanyan Zhenghe, who had gone mad from anger, cursed out loud.

Sun Mo’s answer was very simple. He lifted his hand and launched eight slaps.

Pak! Pak! Pak!

The face of the little prince was so swollen that it looked like a pig head.

“Sun Mo, please be magnanimous.”

“You want to speak for him?”

Sun Mo smiled. “Naturally, you are a teacher and he would take the initiative to give you the antidote.”

This sentence immediately caused the students to view Wanyan Zhenghe with more hostility.

Beardie had a depressed look on his face. This was the first time he had met such an iron-headed intern teacher.

“Little Prince, I’m hitting you because I want to teach you. Don’t let anger cloud your mind and make you forget the original reason why you could exert dominance. Look around you. When you are being beaten up, is there anyone who wishes to stand up for you?”

“You are the little prince of Jin Country. If you want to inherit the throne, you cannot lose the hearts of your subjects. Before these students, you should share your food and clothing, as well as show concern for them instead of not treating them as humans.”

Sun Mo lectured.

“Damn, this fellow is so ruthless.”

Beardie was shocked. Although Sun Mo appeared to be properly and sincerely guiding Wanyan Zhenghe, his intentions behind these actions were extremely toxic.

One must know that for behavior like sharing food and clothing, it could only be done and not spoken off. Once it was verbalized, it would not be effective anymore.

So, even if Wanyan Zhenghe treated everyone very well in the future, everyone would doubt his sincerity. Did he have ulterior motives behind it?

“Hehe!”

Duanmu Li smiled, feeling that Sun Mo was very interesting.

(Aiya, if I’m not sincere, Priceless Advice won’t activate!)

Sun Mo felt a little regretful.

If Priceless Advice was activated, the effect of this ‘golden sentence’ would be even better. Even if Wanyan Zhenghe didn’t suffer a ‘societal death’, he should be about ‘dead’.

“Teacher, are we really poisoned? How can we cure it?”

A female student was afraid. (Rashes? Pimples? Wouldn’t my beautiful face be destroyed?)
