Chapter 1074 - Irrelevant Words Akin to Drunken Nonsense



Chapter 1074: Irrelevant Words Akin to Drunken Nonsense

The crickets of the Darkness Continent had a vitality comparable to cockroaches. It was already late winter, but their chirping voices were still extremely clear.

Prince Consort Qi was interested in all things ranging from racing chickens to cricket fighting. If this was a normal time, Li Ziqi would surely catch some crickets as a gift to her uncle. But today, she was in no mood at all.

This was already the fourth of the five night-watch periods (1 a.m. – 3 a.m.). Her teacher had gone in for so long. Let alone a single kid, he could even make ten at this rate.

“Don’t panic, Teacher will naturally come out after he is tired.”

Qin Yaoguang consoled her. “After all, he will take into consideration that their reputations might be affected.”

“…”

Li Ziqi rolled her eyes at the snacking girl. (You are intentionally making me angry, right?)

(No way. As Teacher’s eldest disciple, I cannot just watch as Teacher’s family splits apart. Before this matter becomes a major one, I have to stop him. And Teacher Jin, you are Headmaster An’s good sworn sister, how could you stab her in her back?)

But when the little sunny egg was walking toward Jin Mujie’s tent, she hesitated again.

“What if they are innocent?”

Just when the little sunny egg was feeling nervous, Jin Mujie was writing notes excitedly.

This was too excellent. All these interesting things Sun Mo spoke about were something that had never appeared in the Nine Provinces.

She would be able to pass for sure.

“Is it enough?”

Sun Mo felt that his mouth was extremely parched.

“Tell me more!”

Jin Mujie stared fixedly at Sun Mo and was like a Persian cat waiting to be fed. “Tell me a little more?”

As she spoke, Jin Mujie went to Sun Mo’s side and took the initiative to massage his shoulders.

“I’ve already told you a lot.” Sun Mo was helpless. “It’s late. I should get going.”

This whole situation made him appear suspicious. Even if nothing happened, he wouldn’t be able to explain himself and make others believe him.

“Alright then!”

Jin Mujie was very disappointed. She opened her book and started revising again.

“Yeah, you should do self-revision.”

Sun Mo then left the tent.

Hu!

After seeing Sun Mo’s intact clothing and that there were no hints of lipstick or rouge on his face, Li Ziqi heaved a sigh of relief.

“I can tell you are inexperienced with just a glance. Right now, the more normal the man in question seems on the surface, the more you have to investigate further,” said Qin Yaoguang.

Some people just wanted the world to burn.

Li Ziqi’s heart clenched. After that, she soon discovered a flaw in this statement. “Since they were inside a tent together, our teacher will surely have a little of Teacher Jin’s perfume smell.”

She then stood up and tidied her clothes before walking toward Sun Mo.

“Teacher, are you hungry? Should I prepare supper for you?”

Li Ziqi bowed and asked. She couldn’t control it and sniffed a bit.

Luckily, the smell wasn’t that concentrated.

“I’m not eating. You should hurry up and go to sleep.”

Sun Mo urged. He stretched his body and was also preparing to head to bed after he returned. But at this moment, Jin Mujie rushed out with a look of conflict on her face.

“Teacher Sun, doing this is equivalent to lying, right?”

After the state of excitement passed, her pride as a great teacher returned and this made her feel doubtful. This idea was surely passable, but it might mislead others.

“Teacher Jin, what is the responsibility of teachers?”

Sun Mo counter-asked.

“To impart knowledge and solve questions.”

Jin Mujie directly spoke without needing to think about it.

“Some of these things I’m telling you have a theoretical foundation, but some are speculations. But are they lies?”

Sun Mo smiled. “Nope, they are not. These hypotheses I put forward are to suggest some possibilities to the students and allow them to have another way to view the world. The ending might be correct or incorrect, but there’s definitely no problem with this method.”

In the Nine Provinces, quack teachers didn’t exist because of the existence of the Saint Gate. It imposed strict rules and those who passed the great teacher examinations definitely had the qualifications and capabilities to teach.

In the modern era, if one didn’t know anything, they could just gather some classic lines from various books and self-proclaim themselves as a master to earn money through the sale of knowledge. The majority of independent educators were quacks.

Selling knowledge, taking advantage of people’s anxiety, setting consumerist traps, ‘education race’, the secret of wealth…

One couldn’t help but say that the swindling techniques in the modern era were all targeting human nature.

Jin Mujie sank into contemplation.

“Regardless of our experiences being the truth or not, to some students, they would surely be of some reference value.”

Sun Mo looked at Li Ziqi. “What I can do is to not tell them the answer to a certain ending. However, I can teach them the method to get an ending!”

Bzz!

Priceless Advice activated.

A golden light shone as resplendently as the stars in the sky on this dark night. Every mote of light was like the glow of wisdom.

Jin Mujie’s expression changed. She then bowed. “This student has benefitted from your teaching!”

Li Ziqi relaxed. It seemed like the two teachers had been discussing profound questions about learning. If not, Priceless Advice wouldn’t activate.

“Teacher Jin is too polite.”

Sun Mo side-stepped.

When Jin Mujie inclined her head again, she stared at Sun Mo and suddenly punched his chest.

Bang!

“Ah?”

Sun Mo didn’t understand. (Why the hell are you beating me?)

Bang!

Jin Mujie hit him again.

When she first knew Sun Mo, he was just an intern teacher that could be fired any time. Now, three years had passed and he had become a famous great teacher that could provide guidance for her.

“I feel that three years of my life have gone to the dog.”

“That dog is simply too lucky.” Sun Mo’s lips twitched. “I’m willing to change place with the dog.”

“Ah?”

Jin Mujie started. After that, she blushed. She didn’t dare to say anything more and turned to leave

(Aiya! You are someone with a fiancee, why are you saying such words to me? What if I misunderstand things?)

Honestly speaking, if Sun Mo wasn’t the fiance of her good sister, Jin Mujie would truly feel the impulse to snatch him away.

“Mn?”

Sun Mo actually had no other thoughts and was just making a joke. But after seeing Jin Mujie’s reaction, he was stupefied.

(What the hell are you thinking?)

After that, he glanced at the little sunny egg.

“Teacher, I didn’t hear anything!”

After Li Ziqi finished speaking, Qin Yaoguang who was at the side quickly covered her ears and added, “Don’t worry, I will definitely not tell this to Teacher’s wife.”

“Tell her about what?”

Sun Mo was depressed. (Did I do something?)

The exam still continued, but the will of many examinees had been crushed. Some of them had decided to give up halfway.

Zhang Wentao stood on the stage once more.

As he lectured, the Ancient Sage Rampart started to light up continuously.

“Damn, Zhang Wentao was holding back previously!”

“I think he decides to go all out after seeing that Sun Mo has caught up to him.”

“Damn! It’s already over 100. This is impressive!~”

Let alone the examinees, even the examiners were surprised.

Such a result would still be brilliant when placed among 6-stars great teachers.

“Haha!” Baldy Qian was very joyful. “Teacher Mei, I will be taking your saint-tier alchemy pill I guess.”

“Hmph, the exam has not ended yet. It is still unknown to whom the deer would fall.”

Mei Yazhi had a sullen look on her face.

“Hehe!”

Baldy Qian couldn’t bear to shift his gaze away. Watching a beauty becoming angry had a nice taste to it. But after thinking that the famous Mei Yazhi was just someone who viewed people by their appearance, he felt as disgusted as someone who had accidentally eaten a fly.

(Sun Mo is indeed handsome but how can he be comparable to someone who is politically astute and experienced like me? I might be bald but I’m outstanding!)

When Baldy Qian looked at Mei Yazhi again, he surveyed her figure, her disposition, as well as the Jixia Learning Palace’s teacher robes on her body…

(Alright, even if there were 100 flies in my meal, I wouldn’t mind it.)

Baldy Qian suddenly grew even more jealous of Sun Mo.

After Zhang Wentao ended his lecture, a total of 112 beams of light were radiating from the Ancient Sage Rampart. This directly blinded the eyes of all the examinees.

At this moment, everyone understood how terrifying Zhang Wentao, someone who was ranked #100 on the Great Teacher Ranking, truly was.

Zhang Wentao went down. His large square face looked as calm as an ancient well with no ripples. The bearing of a great teacher could be felt being exuded from him intensely.

Swish~

The examinees on the first floor immediately glanced at Sun Mo.

Li Ziqi clenched her fist. (I’m going to crush that damnable fellow’s personal student.)

It wasn’t just Zhang Wentao. During the second lecture, several examinees erupted forth with their full potential, causing their results to be greatly improved.

During the first lecture, everyone was still probing. If they could easily pass, no one wished to divulge their trump cards. But if they couldn’t, they had no choice but to go all out.

These examinees were all 3-stars great teachers, and everyone naturally would have their own trump cards.

Finally, it was Sun Mo’s turn again.

As Tong Yiming called out his name, even examinees who were preparing for their lecture also decided to gather over here, wanting to watch Sun Mo’s performance.

Sun Mo went up to the second floor and entered the classroom. After seeing the empty lecture theater, he drew in a deep breath and started his second class.

“For this class, I will talk about a new subject.”

Sun Mo began. “What are humans? What is consciousness? What are thoughts?”

Sun Mo decided to start from the topic of individual existence, bringing out the definition of thoughts before linking it to the concept of philosophy…

Honestly speaking, Sun Mo merely had some understanding of philosophy, and he wasn’t very learned or proficient in it.

Sun Mo had once heard his philosophy professor in university mentioning that only lunatics or people who were so bored that their balls ached would choose to research philosophy. After all, this subject was just too tormenting.

Even if one wasn’t crazy, he would become crazy.

Actually, Sun Mo was more familiar with ‘Cultivation of Ethical Thoughts’ and ‘Deng’s Theory’. But how would he dare to speak about such things?

Although the learning atmosphere of the Nine Provinces was very good and people wouldn’t automatically reject heresy theories, one had to stop when it was appropriate. Hence, Sun Mo decided to choose these types of light theories to lecture.

Sun Mo started from Plato and linked it to Socrates. After that, he expounded on some of Freud’s ideas and even mixed a little Buddha Teachings within.

To see a world in a flower and bodhi in a leaf. These were classic philosophy statements that were very thought-provoking.

To many people, who knew what philosophy was?

It purely depended on one’s gift of the gab.

It was okay even if you used a fallacy that was apparently right but actually wrong to stun the other party into speechlessness.

In any case, it was only for a short lecture, and there wouldn’t be any ‘records’ being kept. Hence, Sun Mo decided to relax and boldly started to talk nonsense.

It was like Sun Mo had returned to the modern era. In midsummer, he would enjoy barbeque and drinks with friends, and everyone started bragging to each other.

At this moment, let alone these ancient sages, even if these people were ancient emperors, they were nobody of significance in Sun Mo’s eyes.

(Give me 3,000 armored warriors and I can get my wild pigs to barge through the Shanhai Pass!)

(Toss me into the Three Kingdoms and I alone am enough to crush Cao Cao and get Zhou Yu to give up his wives, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao to me.)

(If we were in the last years of the Sui Dynasty, there wouldn’t be a need for Li Er. All the heroes of that time would be my little brothers. Who cares for the eighteen powerful warriors of the Sui and Tang Dynasty? I can punch them all to death!)

There were close to 1,000 people on the first level, but at this moment, the entire space was silent. Numerous pairs of eyes were staring at the Ancient Sage Rampart in dumbfounded amazement.

Because ever since Sun Mo started the lecture, beams of light were continuously shooting out. Several beams of light would even pop up at the same time.

“My heavens, what is Sun Mo talking about exactly?”

The examinees were all shocked.

The students were stunned too.

(So, our teacher is so awesome? Wait a minute, why isn’t junior martial sister Lu cheering?)

Li Ziqi glanced over and discovered that Lu Zhiruo appeared as though she was listening in to something.

“What’s going on?”

Qin Yaoguang also noticed this. Hence, she stretched her hand out to poke the papaya girl’s arm.

Lu Zhiruo first checked the surroundings before covering her mouth with her hand as she whispered in a low voice, “I…I can hear the voices from above!”

“What?”

Li Ziqi was shocked.

“Are you suffering from an auditory hallucination?”

Qin Yaoguang frowned. (This place is the Ancient Sage Building. If you can hear it, it means that you have run into a ghost!)

“It’s true!” Lu Zhiruo pouted. “Now, someone is asking our teacher what is a dreamscape?”

“Impossible!”

Jin Mujie shook her head. Before she came here, she had checked with some high star-ranking great teachers, and she had never heard that the ancient sages would ask questions.

“Can you really hear it?”

Qin Yaoguang was also surprised and surveyed Lu Zhiruo. (I didn’t expect that other than your bo*bs being great, your hearing is just as great.)

Yet, Li Ziqi’s eyes brightened. She pulled Lu Zhiruo along. “Let’s go and find a secluded place.”

The little sunny egg was preparing to get Lu Zhiruo to repeat the content of their teacher’s lecture.

“Why are you guys still in a daze? Everyone, let’s go together!”

Li Ziqi urged.

Because everyone was gathered before the Ancient Sage Rampart on the first floor, there were several empty areas here.

Jin Mujie was curious and also followed them.

The examiners all had shocked looks on their faces.

This was especially so for Baldy Qian. He kept using his handkerchief to wipe away the cold sweat on his forehead.

Was the Ancient Sage Rampart damaged?

If not, why would it keep on glowing with light?

So many beams of light. There were definitely more than 500 even without counting. One must know that even in 6-stars great teacher examinations, such a result would assure that the person would be ranked within the top 30.

What was even more terrifying was that the duration of the lecture had only elapsed by half.

(I thought I have won for sure?)

Baldy Qian felt distressed and anxious. “Who the hell is this Black Doggy Sun exactly?”

Zhang Wentao glanced at the beams of light shining from the Ancient Sage Rampart. They were so bright that they almost blinded him. Right now, the pride in his heart had shattered into nothingness.

Let alone these people, even Sun Mo was dumbstruck. It wasn’t because the number of ancient sages was a lot, but because they actually started speaking.

“What is a dreamscape?”

After hearing someone asking a question, Sun Mo was so shocked that his chin almost dropped.

(Do you guys know how to converse?)

Some sages resented the one asking a question for interrupting Sun Mo’s lecture. Some sages berated those guys as well and wanted everyone to remain silent. The entire class immediately grew chaotic.

Sun Mo kneaded his glabella. After that, he smacked his right hand on the table.

Bang!

“Anyone who has questions can ask me after the class ends. For now, please listen to me!”

Sun Mo was simply taking a step at a time. There was no solution because he only had an elementary level of understanding. He thought that once the lecture ended, these ancient sages would vanish.

But after the incense stick burned out and the bell had rung, these ancient sages didn’t leave like how they did for the other examinees. Instead, they continued sitting solemnly and a sea of arms could be seen lifted like trees in a forest.

(Damn, I’m so dead!)

Sun Mo instantly felt a headache.
