Absolute Great Teacher - Chapter 1109: Emergence Of A Secondary Saint, Black-White Academy Shocked!
“Zhang-laoshi, could you permit me to do an inspection?”
Sun Mo clasped his fists.
Hua!
A minor commotion appeared in the classroom because Sun Mo actually accepted this.
His guts were truly heavenly!
“Regardless of what the result is, I respect you because you are a real man!”
Zhou Zerui was convinced.
“How tyrannical!”
Xie Enhui’s admiration for Sun Mo also grew.
“I will have to trouble Teacher Sun then!”
Zhang Chun clasped his fists. “Also, I might be old, but I don’t have many achievements, so there’s no need to address me as ‘laoshi’!”
Sun Mo declined to comment. This was in public, so he had to have manners, or others might feel that he was too unruly and arrogant.
If he wanted to flip out, he had to grab hold of the other party’s weakness first.
As Sun Mo used his hand to inspect Zhang Chun’s body, he also activated Divine Sight for observation. After that, his brows started to furrow.
This old man’s body was very weak, like a withered old tree that had reached the end of its life.
For a total of ten minutes, Sun Mo didn’t say anything, and the people in the classroom didn’t even dare to breathe loudly. They were simply watching him.
The atmosphere was very tense, like the dark clouds covering the sun before the storm came.
It lasted until Sun Mo retracted his hands. However, he didn’t say anything.
Zhou Zerui could no longer wait and took the initiative to ask. “Teacher Sun, how is it?”
“I believe that Zhang-laoshi’s goal is to become a secondary saint, right?”
Sun Mo considered his words before asking.
“Hehe!”
Zhang Chun smiled self-mockingly. Actually, his goal was to become a saint, but he wasn’t even a secondary saint now. If he said his goal was to be a saint, others might feel that he was too much.
“What if I persuade Zhang-laoshi to give up?”
Bzz!
When Sun Mo said this, a huge uproar immediately shook the entire scene.
This was especially so for juniors who had studied under Zhang Chun before. Right now, anger filled their eyes, and they all felt like tearing Sun Mo into pieces.
No one here was a fool.
The underlying meaning in Sun Mo’s words was clear. (You no longer have a chance to become a secondary saint, just give up!)
“Teacher Sun, I admit that your God Hands do have some extraordinary aspects. However, the future of an 8-stars great teacher isn’t something you can judge!”
A male great teacher stood up and publicly criticized Sun Mo. He then hurriedly consoled Zhang Chun. “Teacher, you shouldn’t listen to this nonsense.”
“You sit down!”
Zhang Chun berated. After that, he clasped his hands toward Sun Mo. “Please continue!”
Although he said this, there was anger and reluctance in Zhang Chun’s heart. He felt like a student whose teacher told him that no matter how hard he worked, it was impossible for him to rank within the top ten in his class.
This was a type of denial with regard to his hard work and talent.
“Zhang-laoshi, after inspecting your body, I understand that even now, you are still cultivating assiduously every day. It can be said that you placed your entire life trying to achieve a breakthrough to the secondary saint realm. Do you feel that it is worth it?”
Sun Mo counter-asked.
“Why isn’t that worth it?”
This time around, several people spoke out. Becoming a saint was the ultimate dream of all great teachers.
“Kinship, friendship, love. All of these are beautiful things. Teaching your sons and grandchildren how to swim, enjoying the warmth of a family, gathering with three to five friends for a drink and chat, touring places with your wife, recalling the memories of the past.
“Even without all these examples, I believe that everyone here must have things they want to do but have not done yet, right? For example, us men, which of us wouldn’t want to try visiting all the brothels in Jiangnan, checking out the ‘flowers’ in each of them? At the very least, I have dreamt of becoming drunk in one with many beautiful girls serving me!”
Sun Mo’s words caused many men to reveal an understanding smile like they understood they were people on the same path.
Men…who didn’t have a period of their youth where they were extremely horny?
“I feel that, for the dream of becoming a saint, if you succeed, it will be admittedly worthy of celebration. But even if you cannot become one, there’s no need to push things and sacrifice the beauty of life for it.”
Sun Mo was extremely sincere, and these words were from the bottom of his heart. “From my point of view, there are many beautiful sceneries in life. But Zhang-laoshi is merely staring at the single mountain of becoming a saint and has neglected the nearby beautiful lakes and mountainscape, neglected the spring sun and white snow, and even neglected the folk songs of the ordinary people working in the fields!”
Bzz!
A layer of golden light covered Sun Mo. After that, this light illuminated the entire classroom.
“It’s Priceless Advice!”
Someone exclaimed in shock.
Those who had criticized Sun Mo immediately fell silent because the appearance of Priceless Advice meant that Sun Mo wasn’t trying to swindle Zhang Chun. He truly thought this way.
“Zhang-laoshi. Sometimes, giving up is also a type of courage. It is more precious compared to continued persistence!”
Sun Mo earnestly spoke.
Through the ancient massaging technique, he felt that Zhang Chun had spent the vast majority of his time in meditation and cultivation. Other than the time he took to give lectures, his interaction with his family and friends was almost nonexistent.
One could say that he basically didn’t have a private life.
Zhang Chun fell silent.
Wan Kangcheng was berating Sun Mo in his heart.
After all, once Zhang Chun became a secondary saint, it would vastly boost the Black-White Academy’s prestige and might. However, he also knew that Zhang Chun’s life was simply too…
Dull.
It was precisely because Wan Kangcheng couldn’t withstand such a bitter and boring life that he felt he couldn’t reach the secondary saint realm. This was why he gave up. Under Headmaster Song’s suggestion, he chose to become a vice headmaster.
“Teacher Sun, what’s my chance of success to become a secondary saint?”
Zhang Chun clasped his hands and humbly asked.
“If I give you another 100 years, you might have a 5% chance to succeed.”
Sun Mo’s words invoked another wild round of discussion.
This indicated that in Sun Mo’s eyes, Zhang Chun no longer had a chance.
This was an incomparably cruel judgment.
There was a limit to one’s lifespan. Zhang Chun was already 700 years old. Even if he was the reincarnation of a thousand-year turtle, he would die soon.
“100 years?”
Zhang Chun mumbled.
He knew his own body the best. It was indeed deteriorating every day.
“Zhang-laoshi, admitting that one cannot do so and accepting reality is also a type of courage. Besides, achieving 8-stars is already sufficient to prove that you are someone whose talent is above 99% of others in the great teacher world.”
“Your achievements are something that you can be sufficiently proud of.”
Sun Mo praised.
Everyone nodded because Sun Mo’s words weren’t wrong.
In the entire world, there were not more than 100 secondary saints.
“Zhang-laoshi, may I be so impudent as to ask another question? You are so obsessed with becoming a secondary saint. Is it for your own sake or for the sake of others?”
Sun Mo was curious.
“Teacher Sun, Zhang-laoshi isn’t a vain person.”
Zhou Zerui reminded Sun Mo. Such words might offend Zhang Chun.
“It’s for my teacher’s sake!”
When he mentioned his teacher, Zhang Chun’s eyes glowed with a worshipful light.
His teacher had high hopes for him, but he wasn’t able to achieve 6-stars before his teacher died. This was why he felt very guilty and kept blaming himself. He thought that it was because of him that his teacher died with regrets.
“Understood!”
Sun Mo sighed.
Which children wouldn’t hope that their parents would be proud of them?
Sun Mo could understand Zhang Chun’s feeling!
Actually, the reason why many men worked so hard was not for themselves.
Drinking and playing games every day, wouldn’t that be nice?
But many men couldn’t afford to enjoy them.
They worked so hard because they wanted their family to be proud of them.
This was what responsibility was supposed to be!
This was the persistence of every son, husband, and father!
“Sun-laoshi, how many years do I have left?”
Zhang Chun humbly sought guidance. He even changed his term of address for Sun Mo.
“I don’t dare to accept the honor!”
Sun Mo hurriedly spoke out. After that, he fell silent. Such a topic mustn’t be spoken of casually.
“30 years?”
Zhang Chun asked again. But after seeing Sun Mo not answering, he shortened the amount. “20 years?”
“I feel that the value of life doesn’t lie in the length. Rather, it lies in whether one’s life is meaningful or not.”
Sun Mo felt a headache and decided to say another inspirational sentence.
The underlying meaning was that Zhang Chun shouldn’t ask anymore.
Wan Kangcheng and the other major characters had unsightly expressions on their faces.
“Sun-laoshi, tell me honestly. If I give it my all, do I still have a chance to become a secondary saint?”
When Zhang Chun said this, he directly bowed to Sun Mo.
Sun Mo hurriedly dodged to the side, not answering the question.
From the percentage of success, there was indeed a little. However…
The price was too great.
“Sun Mo, Zhang-laoshi has acted like this, why are you still unwilling to say?”
“Isn’t it just God Hands? It might be impressive, but you shouldn’t be so arrogant!”
These people felt that Sun Mo was too unfriendly.
Zhang Chun was an 8-stars great teacher, a Doyen in the Black-White Academy. Now he was bowing and addressing Sun Mo as ‘Sun-laoshi’, yet Sun Mo still refused to answer.
From everyones’ perspective, this was a type of humiliation.
“Zhang-laoshi. Given your intelligence, you should know the answer to that question, right?”
Sun Mo sighed.
He didn’t want to say anything because he was worried Zhang Chun would choose the perilous path.
“Haha, as expected!”
Zhang Chun laughed uproariously.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
The bell signaling the end of the class rang out.
“In this world, there are still many beautiful things. The main thing isn’t how long you can live, but how fascinating your life is.”
Sun Mo sighed. It could be considered at an end now.
He was preparing to announce the lecture’s end, but at this moment, Zhang Chun’s body suddenly emitted a powerful spirit pressure. After that, his entire body was ignited.
This…
Sun Mo’s countenance changed.
“Zhang-laoshi, you…”
Wan Kangcheng was badly shocked. However, he merely spoke halfway, and Zhou Zerui’s figure already flashed, rushing toward him and covering his mouth. “Don’t speak, you will disturb him!”
“Everyone, get out now, immediately!”
Zhou Zerui urged.
Huala~ Huala~
The students moved around in panic. Some didn’t understand what was happening to Zhang-laoshi.
“Sun Mo, if something happened to Zhang-laoshi, you are going to regret it!”
Wan Kangcheng glared at Sun Mo and felt so angry that he wanted to die.
As expected, something happened.
For the sake of breaking through to become a secondary saint, Zhang Chun had started to ignite his lifeforce and underwent a crazy gamble.
If he failed, everything would end.
And even if he won, he would only have a few years of life left.
As an 8-stars great teacher, Wan Kangcheng had done research on this method of breaking through. If things weren’t at the absolute end, nobody would use it.
To put it unpleasantly, 8-stars great teachers didn’t simply live for their own sake. They also had clans.
Once a major character like this died, it would be extremely detrimental to their clan’s longevity.
“This can’t be blamed on Sun Mo.”
Xie Enhui helped Sun Mo to speak.
“How can this not be blamed on him?”
Wan Kangcheng was very angry. “If it wasn’t for him exposing the amount of time Zhang-laoshi had left, why would Zhang-laoshi take the gamble?”
“You guys, stop arguing! Hurry up and guard him!”
A major character berated.
Zhang Chun’s eyes were tightly closed.
The flames from his body grew more and more intense, like a flaming torch that was releasing endless light and heat.
However, the spirit qi in the surroundings showed no signs of moving.
Sun Mo activated Divine Sight and stared at Zhang Chun. After that, his expression grew increasingly heavy.
Zhang Chun’s lifeforce was burning intensely but there were no signs of him achieving a breakthrough.
“What you are doing is wrong!”
Sun Mo suddenly roared, causing everyone to jump in fright.
“Zhang-laoshi, since you want to gamble, you should go all out. Right now, although you are mentally prepared to die, you are still trying to save every spark of your lifeforce. This is incorrect. You shouldn’t care about trying to ‘save up’ so you can get the best ‘cost-performance ratio’. Stake it all in a single breath! If you don’t succeed, just die!”
Sun Mo roared loudly.
Zhang Chun’s resolution was not resolute enough.
He was still thinking about using the smallest price in exchange for the greatest benefit.
After hearing Sun Mo’s words, Zhang Chun’s expression showed a hint of hesitation. He didn’t follow Sun Mo’s advice.
After all, what was being ignited was his lifeforce. He had no second chance.
At such a time, he was more willing to believe in his own judgment.
“Fool!”
Sun Mo scolded. His mind collected all those articles and movies he had watched. He gathered all the resolute emotions of the main characters that were ready to die for their cause and punched out toward Zhang Chun’s brows.
Soul Imprint!
“What are you doing?”
Seeing Sun Mo attacking and a ball of white light blasting into Zhang Chun’s head, Wan Kangcheng was badly shocked and subconsciously attacked Sun Mo.
Luckily, Sun Mo was prepared. After executing his Soul Imprint, he hurriedly evaded Wan Kangcheng’s attack.
“Teacher Sun, what did you do?”
The others were also roaring in low voices.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the location wasn’t right, they would all want to kill Sun Mo immediately.
But as the ball of light entered Zhang Chun’s brain, he suddenly opened his eyes and ignited all the spirit qi in his body.
He was influenced by the emotions Sun Mo had sent into his brain.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The shackles on Zhang Chun’s body loosened. After that, they cracked completely. BOOM!
A vast amount of spirit qi akin to the water spurt by a whale gathered and flowed into Zhang Chun’s body, flooding it entirely.
Crackle! Crackle!
Numerous lotuses bloomed in the air and fragrance started to drift through the air. The smell wasn’t intense or light, but it seeped into everyone’s heart deeply, causing everyone to reflect on it.
T…this was a sign of success after breaking through!
The major characters were dumbfounded.
He actually succeeded?
Some motes of spirit qi sparkled and transformed into birds that danced in the air as they sang.
A sound like the chiming of a gigantic bell rang out in the air.
Everyone was deeply shocked as reverence filled their hearts. They then lowered their heads devoutly.
A long time later!
A voice finally rang out!
“Many thanks, Sun-laoshi! It was because of your help that I managed to step into the realm of secondary saints!”
Zhang Chun looked at Sun Mo and dipped into a deep bow.
“Z…Zhang-laoshi, you succeeded?”
Although Zhang Chun had personally said that, Wan Kangcheng still found it somewhat unbelievable.
He was frightened.
This was the second person who became a secondary saint due to Sun Mo’s help!
If one time was a coincidence, then the second one…
Many people here had seen it. If it wasn’t for Sun Mo’s guidance, there was an 80% chance that Zhang Chun would have failed and become a corpse now.
All of them had stunned looks on their faces and were temporarily incapable of speech.
Other than being shocked due to the birth of a secondary saint, they were also astonished at Sun Mo’s teaching capabilities. It was already so strong to the point that he could guide someone to become a secondary saint?
Truly terrifying!
