Chapter 809: Scamr Student
“There’ll be a class for self-introductions tomorrow. It’s up to you whether you want to co or not. Alright, you guys can be dismissed now.”
Beardie scanned the 100 examinees present and said in a cold tone, “You guys are free to look around the school, but if you were to make any trouble, then deal with them yourselves. Don’t be thinking that the school will help clean things up for you.
“Here, you’ll have to rely on yourself for everything.”
After Beardie finished saying that, he turned to leave, not planning on interacting with these people to build closer relationships.
In his opinion, was there a need for the examination to continue for three months?
He’d let these examinees shut themselves in and scram within a month.
“This guy is so arrogant!”
“He’s a 6-star great teacher, so how can he not be arrogant?”
“Hmph, just you wait. I’m going to sleep with a few female teachers from the Dragon Subduing Academy. Otherwise, I won’t be able to appease the anger in my heart.”
The examinees mumbled amongst themselves, feeling upset.
To speak the truth, this experience was too horrible. In this school, they had a feeling of solitude and of being unable to fit in.
In the past, be it in any schools in the Central Plains, even as an intern teacher, they would still be respected by students. However, there was none of that here.
“What about accommodations? als? Are there no ones to take care of those?”
Liu Zongyuan frowned.
“Maybe we need to go find out about those ourselves?”
“This can’t be a stage of the examination as well, right?”
At the thought of this, everyone drew back their dissatisfaction. If it was a part of the examination and they were to have such emotions, they might be given low marks.
So examinees left without saying anything.
“Now, it’s down to each person’s capabilities.”
i Ziyu reminded Sun Mo. The 3-star examinations in the past didn’t have any fixed passing grades. In terms of percentage, as long as they entered the top 20% of the ranking, they’d be able to pass.
Therefore, if they were to encounter strong competitors, great teachers who could pass might end up failing.
Take this year for example. As Sun Mo and so geniuses on the Great Teachers Hero Rankings were participating in the examinations, many 2-star great teachers who had planned on participating had given up.
In the Saint Gate’s perspectives, while great teachers needed to be talented and capable of teaching and educating, guiding trash into gold, they couldn’t be huge infants who were ignorant and physically incapable.
Therefore, from the start, examinees would need to take care of their own basic necessities like clothing, food, and accommodations.
The status of a 2-star great teacher was not low. At the very least, they wouldn’t be lacking in maids and servants. Now that they were suddenly left to fend for themselves, it was considered a tempering for them.
Sun Mo was used to this. After all, he had been through many rounds of enrollnts in the modern world and had been bitten many tis by society.
Sun Mo and i Ziyu asked two students and found the logistics departnt. After finding out about their dorm room number, they collected their necessities.
After agreeing to have lunch together later, Sun Mo found his dorm building, knocked, and opened the door.
Surprisingly, Sun Mo wasn’t living with examinees but with the Dragon Subduing Academy’s intern teachers.
Even though these teachers had the title of intern teachers, the weakest amongst them were 3-star.
The Dragon Subduing Academy had spare rooms, but they’d only be assigned to official teachers.
“Having gotten used to villas, I’m not used to living in dorms again!”
Sun Mo exclaid.
This was a 4-person room. Although his roommates were all n, there weren’t any strange slls like stinky socks. It was just ssier.
“Hello, I’m a new intern teacher, Sun Mo.”
There was only one young man in the dorm, and Sun Mo took the initiative to greet him.
“Sun Mo? That God Hands Sun Mo?
The young man asked in curiosity.
“No, we just share the sa na.”
Sun Mo shook his head but felt delighted inside. (My great na has already reached the plains?)
Sun Mo had thought too much into things. It was just that this young man had subscribed to the Great Teacher Report and found out about Sun Mo’s feats from there. If his na was ntioned to students, there was a very high chance that they hadn’t heard of him before.
The young man assessed Sun Mo and smiled. “That’s true. I heard that Sun Mo is very handso and is An Xinhui’s fiancé. Therefore, there’s definitely no way he’ll co to the Dragon Subduing Academy to be a teacher.”
After saying that, the young man stopped paying any heed to Sun Mo. He continued to lay on the table and got back to his work.
As Sun Mo was wearing a human skin mask, his appearance was ordinary.
“…”
Sun Mo’s lips twitched. This guy was really rude. He should at least say his na.
However, since the other party was aloof, Sun Mo wouldn’t try to be nice toward him either. Seeing that there was an empty bed and ascertaining the number on the top of the bed was the one he was assigned to, he started to take care of his beddings.
However, the young man threw occasional glances at Sun Mo.
He wasn’t angry despite this?
It seed that his temper was quite good. But it could also be that he had been bullied too much and had gotten used to it. The young man wondered how this guy’s teaching capabilities were. However, given how young he was, it was probably bad, right?
(Hmph, heck it. In the end, everyone will have to rely on their own capabilities.)
The young man continued to bury his head into his studies. He must get himself to stay here and beco a great teacher in one of the Nine Greats.
…
After Sun Mo and i Ziyu t up, they went to the canteen to take a look.
Here, Sun Mo imdiately experienced the difference between tiers.
The canteen on the first floor was very big, but there wasn’t much food. They were primarily highland barley cakes and at porridge.
There were pastries and fruits, but they were very expensive. Other than so girls occasionally buying them for a taste, there were almost no custors queuing for them.
This was also the level with the greatest number of students.
The second floor was slightly smaller but had a wide variety of food. Many foods from the Central Plains could be seen here, but they were just a little on the expensive side.
However, the students who could dine on this floor didn’t lack money.
It was because almost all of them were mbers of nobility from the various tribes. This could be seen from the way they talk and conduct themselves, as well as their accessories.
The Dragon Subduing Academy had student uniforms. They were leather pants, shirt, and vest on the inside, and uniform long robes on the outside.
Everyone cared to look nice.
It was forbidden to modify or change the school uniform, but there were no requirents for accessories. Therefore, the ones who wore gold, silver, or even jade accessories were from rich families or held great power.
“From that guy’s age, he should be a student, right? Why is he not wearing a school uniform?”
Sun Mo saw a strong man who, despite having a height of eight feet, had a youthful appearance. He probably hadn’t turned of age yet.
“Every year, the Dragon Subduing Academy will conduct a hunting sacrificial ceremony. If a student managed to hunt a powerful ferocious beast, they could skin the beast to make it into clothing they like and wear it.”
i Ziyu explained.
To put it simply, those with capabilities had special rights.
The first floor was the biggest and had the most number of students. However, the food there was also the simplest. Those who ate there were all commoners. Despite that, they didn’t have any complaints but felt that it was very fair instead.
They felt that it was a fortunate thing in their life to be able to enter this school to learn here. Therefore, they’d instinctively have fewer demands.
Of course, to prevent contradictions between different tiers, the school also gave them the opportunity to dine on the second level.
They must either have money or be exceptionally capable, having outstanding results in the various examinations and selections that the school conducted.
As for the third floor, almost no one went there. The students also try their best to avoid heading near the staircase. Therefore, this area appeared very spacious.
Those who dined on this floor were the powerful mbers of the various major tribes. In the future, if there weren’t any accidents, they’d be leaders or pillars of their tribes.
Using the Central Plains’ standards, they’d be mbers of the royalty, being princes or princesses.
Of course, if they were willing, they could bring ordinary students up to dine there. However, these royalties seldom made use of this right.
They took this as a ans to win over people.
After all, they weren’t just learning in this school. They also had to pick talents to beco their trusted aides.
“This school emits a strong sense of utilitarianism.”
Sun Mo felt that this was too blatant.
“The barbarians don’t care about holding back. They talk about strength, and the stronger one has the say. This has been the case since ancient tis.”
i Ziyu smiled.
Sotis, she felt that this wasn’t bad either. It was more down-to-earth compared to the Central Plains’ swarming flies who constantly sched against others.
Sun Mo observed quietly, learning how things went on in the Dragon Subduing Academy.
If the students wanted to eat good food and have a good life, they would have to work hard in their studies and climb up. If they couldn’t do that, they could scram to the first floor. In more serious cases, they might even be expelled.
Sun Mo felt that this was fine.
In the Central Plains’ schools, students would only receive a few complints and be highly regarded by their teachers if they were to perform well. There weren’t many material rewards.
“Therefore, it’s still important to have material encouragent. Other than clothing, food, and accommodation, they should also be given peak-grade cultivation art.”
Sun Mo took out a small booklet and took this note down.
After taking a look at the canteen, Sun Mo and i Ziyu returned to the first floor. They asked for the classic highland barley cake and at porridge set al, as well as air-dried beef jerky dish to go along.
The taste wasn’t bad, but one would definitely get sick of it if they were to eat this every day.
Thereafter, the two of them headed for the Dragon Subduing Palace. By the ti they arrived there, they saw many people, with most of them being examinees.
The 18 Dragon Capturing Pillars seed to be like jade pillars that rose to the heavens, reaching straight up as if wanting to pierce through the sky.
They surrounded an area that was the size of 1.5 soccer fields. The ground was laid out with so slates of unknown material. There were mysterious runes on them that emitted weak luminous light.
When soone stood on it, the formation was activated and the person disappeared. They were teleported into the Dragon Subduing Palace.
“The Dragon Subduing Palace is our school’s ultimate building. There’s an ancient giant dragon inside and fighting against it can temper one’s physique. The entrance fee is only one spirit stone. It’s really cheap.”
A guy who was about sixteen years old smiled and said.
“You’re going to sell it?”
Sun Mo turned and assessed this young man.
“Middle-Earth’s laws will let the spirit qi in spirit stones scatter out incessantly, so there’s no way of preserving them for a prolonged period.”
The guy smiled and took out a box that was made from jade stone. “But I have a way to preserve spirit stones.”
“What’s the price?”
Sun Mo threw a glance at the box. It looked very mysterious but was just made from a piece of ordinary rock. It was just painted to make it look lofty.
As for the inside, Sun Mo’s Divine Sight told him that there wasn’t any spirit qi inside.
Therefore, this young man should be a scamr.
“It’s not expensive. It’s only 10,000 silver taels, or weapons and alchemical pills that are of equivalent value.”
The guy broke into a wide grin, looking very honest.
“What’s your na?”
Sun Mo asked.
“Gerili.”
The guy scratched his head. “If you want to buy it, please be quick. After all, there are many intern teachers here today and everyone wants to enter the Dragon Subduing Palace to take a look. Therefore, spirit stones are very popular right now.”
“One piece of spirit stone isn’t worth so much money.”
i Ziyu frowned, having the feeling that sothing was amiss.
“A small bunch of salt or sugar from your Central Plains can be traded with a lamb from our great plains. Did anyone say that that’s unfair?”
The guy retorted.
i Ziyu’s face instantly flushed up.
It was true that people from the Central Plains had their way with business.
“I don’t like to deal with liars.”
Sun Mo looked at the guy. That wasn’t his na. His na was actually Tuoba Cong.
“Lied? Who?
Tuoba Cong pretended to be puzzled. However, he was a smart and obstinate child. (I’m bent on scamming 10,000 taels from you today.)
“This teacher, please buy it. I’ll then be able to eat an additional piece of at for dinner tonight.”
Tuoba Cong turned his target to i Ziyu. “Moreover, for a place like the Dragon Subduing Palace, going one day later will just give you one more day of regrets.”
i Ziyu didn’t lack spirit stones and thus didn’t mind it. Upon hearing Tuoba Cong saying that he could then eat an additional piece of at, her heart softened and she took out a small porcelain bottle.
In Middle-Earth Nine Provinces, peak-grade alchemical pills could be used as currency no matter the place.
Pa!
Sun Mo pressed i Ziyu’s hands down.
“You’re quite daring to even dare to scam teachers!”
Sun Mo chuckled.
“Who lied?”
Tuoba Cong shouted loudly, causing everyone nearby to look over imdiately.
Sun Mo instantly felt that sothing was amiss.
In most cases, scamrs would definitely run away after their scams had been seen through. However, this guy didn’t do that. Instead, him making a fuss showed that he had a trick up his sleeves.
“You’re bullying for being an intern teacher as I don’t wish to blow up the matter, right? Moreover, even if I was scamd, I’d bear with it. After all, it’d be too embarrassing to let others find out that a teacher has been scamd by a student.”
Sun Mo assessed Tuoba Cong. “If I’m not mistaken, you definitely have real spirit stones on you. Once this matter is blown up and we have a confrontation, I’ll be thoroughly discredited.”
“Hehe, what is Teacher talking about?”
Tuoba Cong looked baffled, but his heart skipped a beat. This was bad. He had encountered a smart guy.
(Sigh! One shouldn’t judge a book by its cover!)
This guy looked like a coward, one who wouldn’t know even if he was made a cuckold. Moreover, male great teachers who were accompanied by a female great teacher were easier targets. It was because n would have their vanity.
After all, if the female great teacher wished to check out the Dragon Subduing Palace, would you dare not spend the money on tickets?
“You’re quite daring, so you can leave. I won’t expose you.”
Sun Mo let Tuoba Cong off. After all, the great teachers he had managed to scam would definitely have their marks deducted by the examiners.
Tuoba Cong still had tricks up his sleeves, but after seeing Sun Mo’s eyes that had a strong distinction between the black and the white, he felt a hint of wariness for so reason. He called out ‘Teacher is so stingy’ and then ran off, looking for his next target.
Sun Mo activated Divine Sight once again.
Tuoba Cong, 15 years old. Spirit-refinent realm.
Strength 19. Even though his body looks skinny and weak, he has endless brute strength.
Intellect 17. Training is too tiring. It’s better to scam people for so easy money.
Agility 15. With a horse to ride, why would I need to run?
Will 13. Will submit when the tis call for it. One can only enjoy wine and beauties if they are alive.
Endurance 18. If it involves earning money, I can persist for 100 years.
…
Potential value: Extrely high!
Note: Currently doesn’t have a personal teacher. Aptitude is being wasted.
Looking at the two red words ‘extrely high’, Sun Mo’s eyelids twitched. This was an extrely rare talent that was hard to co by in 10,000 people.
Should he try to recruit this student?
As for his scamr character, that could be corrected!
“I’ll go trade two tickets.”
i Ziyu had alchemical pills of extrely high grade with her. Therefore, she was confident that she’d be able to trade two tickets with them.
“No need!”
Sun Mo wanted to say that they could check it out next ti when he suddenly saw light glowing abruptly. When the light disappeared, a young man holding onto a pair of crutches appeared.
The students nearby imdiately looked over, whispering amongst themselves.
“He seems to be soone famous.”
i Ziyu felt curious.
