Chapter 284 Headmaster Cao’s Shock
In the realm of great teachers, when they were giving lessons, they would maximize the effect of each of their classes. Naturally, the more people attending, the better.
However, Sun Mo didn’t care about this. What he requested was for the students to wake up early. From his point of view, one’s talent could be bad or average, but one must not be lacking in hard work. If they couldn’t even wake up early for his class, it just ant that they weren’t qualified to hear the lecture.
“Besides, old man, 500 taels of silver isn’t enough to purchase a seat for Teacher Sun’s lecture!”
The student added, “1,000 taels, no haggling. If you are very lucky and Teacher Sun chose you to ask him a question, you have to add another red packet with 1,000 more taels!”
“So expensive?”
Cao Xian was dumbfounded. He really wanted to ask if Sun Mo was a great teacher, but when he saw the ‘as it should be by rights’ look on the faces of the students, he tactfully didn’t say anything.
As long as the students felt the seats were worth the price, it ant that this teacher truly had so capabilities.
Since he wasn’t able to purchase any seats, Cao Xian could only stand outside the corridor and listen through a window.
The sound of the bell rang out. Sun Mo punctually entered the classroom as the bell rang.
“Good morning students!”
Sun Mo greeted. He lifted his hand and imdiately cast a great teacher halo!
Swish!
A golden light extended and enveloped the lecture theater. All the students imdiately felt their ntal states improving, reaching their peak.
“Encyclopedic Knowledge?”
Cao Xian was stunned. This was a commonly seen great teacher halo. The Saint Gate had studied about it before. Basically, any great teacher would be able to comprehend this within three years. But the prerequisite was that they had to be a great teacher first. Sun Mo had just started his teaching career and already comprehended this halo. This was truly impressive! Also, as the headmaster of an academy, Cao Xian himself was a 5-star great teacher. His judgnt and experience naturally wouldn’t be bad. When he saw the range of Sun Mo’s Encyclopedic Knowledge, even reaching the corridor and classrooms on the east side, he already knew the effects would be extrely strong!
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Cao Xian 10. Neutral (90/100).
“Today, I will be guiding everyone on how to maintain one’s body and how to formulate a level-by-level cultivation plan!”
Sun Mo spoke with confidence and had clear enunciation, backed with irrefutable logic. However, he felt a little distracted in his heart. What was going on with Cao Xian? Why was he contributing favorable impression points so early in the morning? “His lecturing style isn’t bad, and his deanor and appearance are excellent as well. He can be nurtured into a celebrity teacher!”
Cao Xian surveyed Sun Mo, the more he looked at Sun Mo, the more he liked him.
Sun Mo’s height was roughly about 1.85 ters. When he was clad in the azure-colored robes, he was truly a dazzling sight, exuding a strong sense of existence.
When he stood on the rostrum, he would imdiately beco the focal point of the entire lecture theater. His self-confidence and high-spiritedness also enveloped the entire field.
Sun Mo’s handso looks also contained a hint of delicateness. This made it so that when he smiled, he looked like an older brother from next door. Although it caused his prestige to lessen a little, the amicable feeling he exuded increased by a great deal.
This was a man you would tell everything to!
Cao Xian turned his head to observe the expressions of the students.
One must know that this was a 300-pax classroom, but at this mont, it was so quiet that it felt as though the atmosphere beca the silent winter. There were no other sounds other than Sun Mo’s voice.
Even students suffering a cold would cover their mouths when they sneezed and do their best to control the volu, trying not to make any sound.
Compared to the male students, the female students were even more focused.
“This ti around, An Xinhui has truly picked up a treasure!”
Cao Xian’s lips twitched. He felt a little jealous.
This was the charisma of a celebrity teacher. After all, having good looks would allow your class to have a stronger attraction force. It was the sa for both males and females.
Fang Wuji and Liu Mubai had always been known as the twin jade annulus of Jinling. It was true that they were both overflowing with talent and had equal strength. But if Cao Xian were to choose one, he would definitely want Liu Mubai.
This was because Liu Mubai was too handso, so handso to the extent where won would scream in excitent from it. As for Fang Wuji, he looked normal above his nose. However, his lower face caused his marks to drop by way too much.
And now, another Sun Mo appeared in the Central Province Academy!
“No, I have to poach him over no matter what!”
Cao Xian was observing Sun Mo’s lecture content and style, as well as his ability to guide the emotions of the students. But the more he listened, the more he felt imrsed in the subject.
Compared to these students, Cao Xian was a 5-star great teacher as well as an alchemy grandmaster. Hence, he was very clear about body structure. When he heard Sun Mo systematically explained the connection between cultivation and one’s body and summing them up as a subject, Cao Xian could only sigh in admiration.
Honestly speaking, everyone knew that they had to maintain their body and health. But as to why they should do this, many people hadn’t thought through it before. Their teachers said they had to do this, so they just did it. This was passed down through the generations and now when Sun Mo explained it, all of them suddenly felt enlightened.
An appropriate amount of sleep, a balanced diet, the timing when one should cultivate, and their duration and training load.
When Cao Xian heard it, he felt like he had gained the most precious treasure. In fact, he even cast a ‘Retentive mory’ great teacher halo on himself.
This great teacher halo could allow students to rember the content of a lecture clearly. The duration would depend on the level of the great teacher’s halo.
The nearby students were enveloped by the glow and jumped in shock as they stared at Cao Xian in bewildernt.
Which great teacher was this?
He had actually comprehended such a powerful great teacher halo. Why hadn’t they seen this before?
“Alright, next is the questioning segnt!”
Sun Mo took out his pocket watch and glanced at it. There was only a little bit of ti left before the class ended.
This pocket watch made from silver had beautiful violet decorative designs engraved on it. The sides were embedded with gold. This was sothing Li Ziqi had carefully chosen from imported goods of the western countries for Sun Mo.
It was said that this was a masterpiece by a certain grandmaster watch-maker. Although it was chanical, the disparity in ti wouldn’t exceed 3 seconds in a year. There was no need to maintain it frequently.
“Eh, he’s not lecturing anymore?”
Cao Xian was addicted to it. In the end when he heard it was now the question segnt, he imdiately felt unhappy. He wanted nothing more than to rush over and press on Sun Mo’s head, making him continue with the lecture.
However, Cao Xian swiftly collected his emotions and beca more focused on observing the situation. Because, at the instant Sun Mo’s voice faded away, every single student began to lift their hands.
No matter how dumb Cao Xian was, he knew the main highlight of the show was here.
The students all had fanatical looks in their eyes, like they wanted nothing more than for Sun Mo to pick them imdiately. “This student!”
Sun Mo walked down from the rostrum and casually pointed to one student.
“Teacher Sun!”
Shen Fei stood up. After bowing, he began to describe the problems his body was facing. “Recently, I feel that my cultivation base has stagnated. Every ti I finish cultivating in the past, I would be able to feel so improvent. Should I increase my training load?”
If this was before, Shen Fei would surely have just increased his training load. But after attending a few dical cultivation lectures, he knew that one mustn’t recklessly increase their training load, or they would harm their body and cause their strength to dwindle instead.
Sun Mo stretched out his hand and placed it on Shen Fei’s shoulder. He kneaded it a little and moved his hand down.
“Is this God Hands?”
Cao Xian opened his eyes wide, wanting to see how special this was.
“Your training load is just nice. You shouldn’t add on to it anymore, or your muscles would be injured.”
Sun Mo overruled.
“Then, my situation...?”
Shen Fei was apprehensive.
“You can’t just train a single blade art forever. It’s ti for you to switch to another one!”
Sun Mo suggested, “Your muscles no longer feel any ‘freshness’ from this blade art. Simply speaking, you can’t get excited. Now when you are practicing, you are only doing so for the sake of practicing, no more and no less.”
Shen Fei started. God Hands were indeed powerful. Throughout these two years, he had indeed been practicing a single blade art and had never tried cultivating any others. Ding!
Favorable impression from Shen Fei 50. Prestige connection unlocked. Neutral (50/100).
“Teacher!”
The thick-browed students seated at the back raised his hand.
“Speak!”
Sun Mo nodded.
Thick-brow stood up and spoke in a sowhat puzzled tone, “Teacher, isn’t practicing more useful? Practice makes perfect after all.”
“By cultivating blade arts, you wouldn’t get stronger just by repeating your training blindly. What you should do is to correct the mistakes between your repetitions and find out exactly how you should use this set of blade art to maximize the might it could unleash.”
Sun Mo explained further, “By repeating your training ineffectively, you will simply be wasting your ti.”
Cao Xian nodded. A genius only needed to practice a set of blade arts once, while ordinary people might need to practice a hundred tis. This was the logic.
That male student whose cultivation stagnated practiced for the sake of practice. Because he was too familiar with this set of blade arts, he no longer used his mind to ponder and reflect over the mistakes.
“Change to another blade art and practice it for one month before you switch back again!”
Sun Mo gave the solution.
“But teacher, my blade art is an average-grade heaven-tier cultivation art!”
When Shen Fei spoke, his tone contained a hint of superiority. The blade arts of this level were already very powerful.
As expected, many exclamation sounds rang out in the lecture theater. So students even cast envious gazes over on Shen Fei.
Shen Fei’s aning was simple. (I’m unable to find a higher-tier blade art. As for lower-tier ones, what’s the point of practicing them?)
“You still don’t understand my intention. By asking you to change a blade art, I didn’t an it for you to increase your combat strength. Instead, what I want is for your muscles to liven up and beco excited once again.”
Sun Mo explained as he swept his gaze through the classroom. “The human body is ford from many sets of muscles combined. By practicing a single blade art frequently, you will only use the sa set of muscles and neglect the others. Changing a blade art is to let your other sets of muscles be used as well.”
There was a period when Sun Mo was fond of watching ‘Tour de France’. Hence, after understanding the principles of cycling, he knew that the set of muscles of these bikers were different from those who specialized in marathons.
For the champion of the Tour de France, his physique, the capabilities of his heart and lungs, and his will definitely had no problems. But if you told him to go and run a marathon, he would absolutely not be able to get first place.
Many students revealed enlightened expressions.
“Teacher, what blade art should I choose then?”
Shen Fei sincerely sought guidance.
“What you are practicing now is the Starry Blade Art, a blade art that emphasizes swiftness. In that case, choosing another blade art of the sa type would suffice.” After Sun Mo finished speaking, Shen Fei’s eyes were wide open.
D...damn! God Hands truly lived up to their reputation!
(Just by touching my shoulders a little, Teacher Sun knew the blade art I’m practicing?)
“Thank you, teacher!”
A look of reverence and respect could be seen on Shen Fei’s face as he bowed. He decided to do things according to Teacher Sun’s instructions after this class ended.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Shen Fei 100. Friendly (150/1,000).
Cao Xian, who was outside the door, was stunned as he watched.
