Chapter 311 If We Can’t Get the Championship, I’ll Resign!
“There’s no need!”
Tantai Yutang looked at Zhang Hanfu. His tone was neither servile nor overbearing. “Schoolmate Zhang Qian has a problem with his heart. If he participates in such a highly intensive competition, he might die a sudden death. I’ve prescribed some medicine for him and told him to recuperate at ease.
“Oh ya, I feel it’s better if he doesn’t cultivate. Cultivation is also a type of stress on the heart. Headmaster An, if you don’t wish to see any students of our school dying from sudden death, you should persuade him to give up!”
Wang Su’s expression turned warm when he saw that Tantai Yutang didn’t have stage fright but spoke frankly with assurance instead. He was simply such a character. When he admired you, he would feel that you were good in all aspects.
“You have learned medical arts before?”
Wang Su was curious.
“My medical arts are passed down from my family, not worthy of a mention!” Tantai Yutang spoke in a self-deprecating manner.
The students started to whisper to themselves. As for the teachers, they were filled with curiosity as they looked at Tantai Yutang. For someone who dared to say that the heart of a student had problems, they were either capable or a liar.
“Since you’ve learned medical arts before, do you think that you can withstand the intensity of the competition with your current condition?”
Liu Mubai spoke. He felt that Tantai Yutang was the former. Being able to see a problem within a student’s body was impressive enough. “I’ve done some research on the competition’s schedule. It shouldn’t be a problem.”
Tantai Yutang laughed, he was filled with confidence. “Besides, I depend on my brain for a living. For matters like fighting, I can just hand it over to Xuanyuan Po and Ying Baiwu!” “Ridiculous!”
Zhang Hanfu berated, “Does the student really have a problem just because you said so?”
“If there are no problems with his heart, I will change my surname to match yours. Oh right, when we were dueling, I didn’t exercise control and accidentally broke two of his ribs. So...”
Tantai Yutang shrugged. “You understand, right?”
Everyone naturally understood. Tantai Yutang’s unspoken dialogue was clear. (He is injured, so you guys have no choice but to change him away.)
Zhang Hanfu still wanted to scold him, but An Xinhui interjected. “Teacher Zhou, could you please inspect him?” “Sure!”
Tantai Yutang had long since anticipated that this would happen. If he could participate in the competition just because he won a bet, there would be no way for him to convince the majority.
“Teacher Sun, what do you think?”
An Xinhui glanced at Sun Mo.
“Tantai, give me a reason!” Sun Mo’s tone was solemn.
“In life, one definitely has to do something memorable enough to be recalled when you are old, right? If we die silently without making a splash, wouldn’t that be too sorrowful?”
Tantai Yutang had a mournful look on his face.
Upon hearing his words, the expressions of the other students turned solemn. That was right, who didn’t wish to be famous?
The atmosphere became heavy.
Tantai Yutang wanted to laugh. (You guys actually believe my words? I said that simply because I’m bored.) But when he saw Sun Mo’s clear eyes looking at him, his heart couldn’t help but skip a beat.
(It can’t be, right?)
(Did Teacher manage to guess my thoughts?)
“I’ll permit him to participate. If something happens, I will take responsibility!”
Sun Mo glanced at An Xinhui.
“Student Tantai, I have to tell you clearly that even if you passed Teacher Zhou’s test, if your body showed signs of unwellness during the competition, I would still replace you!”
An Xinhui’s tone was strict.
She wouldn’t joke around with the life of a student. If Tantai Yutang wasn’t Sun Mo’s student and didn’t obtain Sun Mo’s permission, she would never have agreed to let him participate even if he was a doctor. Bluntly speaking, An Xinhui was a little selfish because a doctor could bring the greatest ‘benefit’ to the team. Besides, he was also Sun Mo’s student. If they won, the glory would belong to Sun Mo.
Tantai Yutang went to the side with Teacher Zhou for the test. Zhang Hanfu originally still wanted to verbally shoot Li Ziqi, but given her status, he didn’t dare to speak. However, Wang Su was different.
“What about you? Don’t tell me you are a doctor too?”
Wang Su glanced at Li Ziqi.
“I’ve analyzed it before. Jiang Xian’s combat strength is ranked at the bottom three within the new student group. Other than this, he has no good point at all. In a group, he could only do unskilled labor. To speak of it in more cruel terms, he is just a cannon fodder used to explore the path ahead.”
Li Ziqi didn’t get stage fright as well. She spoke frankly with assurance, “If you need cannon fodder, I can do it as well!” “Your evaluation of yourself is truly low!”
Zhang Hanfu couldn’t bear it and mocked her.
“Truth has proven that I could defeat Jiang Xian in combat. This meant that he is really weak!”
Usually, when Li Ziqi spoke, she would have some propriety in her speech. But this time, since this involved the name slots of the league tournament, the little sunny egg could only apologize.
“I’m the eldest martial sister, I have to fight together with my teacher!”
Li Ziqi really wanted to tell Sun Mo that there was no need for him to take special care of her.
“You have analyzed everything? In that case, why don’t you name the strengths and weaknesses of this student?”
Liu Mubai randomly pointed to a male student.
Li Ziqi glanced over.
She didn’t even need to recall his information and spoke directly, “Lu Qi, 12 years 7 months old. He is at the fourth level of the body-refinement realm and proficient in boxing. His dagger skills are not bad either and he can be used as a scout.
“As for weaknesses, he hesitates too much and would have no good solution no matter what problems he encounters. Hence, even if he is used as a scout, he can only be considered a tiny soldier and cannot be depended on to execute a mission independently!”
Lu Qi frowned. No one would be fond of their weaknesses being made known in public. Besides, there were so many teachers here, making him want to rebut. “Schoolmate Lu, actually, many students at your age wouldn’t have the decisiveness to make important decisions. Please don’t find my words unpleasant. If you can train your decisiveness, you would become someone like Zhang Yanzong, number one in his year!”
Li Ziqi apologized.
After this sentence, many teachers silently nodded. This girl knew how to handle the situation very well.
Lu Qi was a male student and thus couldn’t keep arguing with her. Besides, she had also said that if he could train his decisiveness, he would become a rare genius like Zhang Yanzong. After thinking carefully, Li Ziqi’s evaluation of him was accurate. However, how did she know what he was proficient in?
“What about this student?”
Liu Mubai pointed to a female student. It wasn’t that he wanted to make things difficult for Li Ziqi, but he just wanted to see if she was truly outstanding!
“Teacher Liu, there’s no need for you to keep asking me!”
As Li Ziqi spoke, she took out a piece of paper from her leather bag. “I’ve listed out all the data of the students in the new student group and representative group. Just take a look at them yourself!”
Just when Liu Mubai wanted to take the paper, Wang Su stepped out and received it before him.
He only took a glance, and a look of admiration immediately appeared on his face.
Her handwriting was really beautiful, but what was even more beautiful was the data analysis included below.
Name, year, cultivation base, proficiency, weaknesses, suitability for what types of missions, and what contributions this person could make to the group!
Li Ziqi wrote everything out. The more important thing was that she also added her own evaluation of each student at the end. “Excellent!”
Wang Su praised.
The surrounding teachers stretched their necks out, filled with curiosity. They wanted to see what was written on the paper that caused this girl to gain Wang Su’s praise!
One must know that Wang Su had this condition called mental mysophobia. Let alone students, even those genius teachers would hardly gain a word of praise from him.
“Li Ziqi can join the competition!” Wang Su passed the data to An Xinhui.
He had given her his approval.
After An Xinhui saw the data, she was somewhat shocked. Although the recorded data wasn’t as detailed as what she would have written if she was in Li Ziqi’s shoes, they were about the same.
One must know that her channels of news were much better compared to Li Ziqi’s. Also, despite having the data, one had to do a comprehensive analysis of all aspects. Being able to understand such data was also a type of ability.
Li Ziqi’s data wasn’t something so simple like simply listing out the strengths and weaknesses of the students.
“Ziqi, how did you manage to collect such data?”
An Xinhui was very curious. She then passed the paper to Liu Mubai.
Liu Mubai glanced at the data before turning his eyes to Li Ziqi. There was a trace of disbelief on his face. This girl’s analytic abilities were so terrifying!
“We all went to the Darkness Continent together before this!”
Li Ziqi explained. Her meaning was self-evident. (During the trip to Darkness Continent, I’ve already started to collect their data.)
Naturally, she had also used some of her clan’s resources.
An Xinhui fell silent. This girl couldn’t have been thinking of obtaining a name slot to the league tournament ever since the trip to Darkness Continent, right?
However, the truth was like this indeed.
How could one convince the school leaders and teachers just by defeating a participating student? After all, one had to be fully prepared to display one’s brilliance.
Also, if the data on this piece of paper wasn’t able to persuade the school leaders, Li Ziqi still had a back-up plan.
“Teacher Sun!”
An Xinhui glanced at Sun Mo.
“I don’t agree!”
Бас
Sun Mo was too familiar with Li Ziqi. He also understood the content of the league tournament. If the little sunny egg participated in the competition, the risk of her dying was simply too high. “Teacher!”
Li Ziqi knelt and looked at Sun Mo. “I know you are concerned for me, but do you want to protect me for your entire life? Young birds have to leave their nest sooner or later!”
Li Ziqi’s words stunned Sun Mo.
That was right. Could it be that he wouldn’t allow her to leave his side forever? This was impossible, she would grow up sooner or later!
“Teacher, I believe in Eldest Martial Sister!” Lu Zhiruo tugged at Sun Mo’s sleeves and tried to persuade him.
“Teacher, life and death, wealth and poverty are all predestined. Just let her go!” Xuanyuan Po rolled his eyes, feeling that this was a waste of time. (Can’t we hurry and move out? My Silver Paste is already suffering from unbearable thirst!)
“Alright then.”
Sun Mo sighed.
Li Ziqi stood up, feeling very happy. She finally had a slot. However, she turned to Xuanyuan Po after that.
“Your words are wrong, they are too general. I feel that regardless of the survival chance or whether a person is healthy or not, as long as we consider all factors thoroughly, we will definitely be able to increase the percentage of success!
“Compared to handing my fate to the heavens, I’d rather believe in my own intelligence!”
Tantai Yutang walked over. When he heard this, he couldn’t help but laugh. “What a coincidence, I also choose to believe my brains!”
At this moment, everyone felt disdain toward Tantai Yutang but gave Li Ziqi a look of approval.
The teachers were all full of praise when they read the information booklet made by Li Ziqi.
“Teacher Zhou, what do you think of Tantai Yutang?”
An Xinhui asked.
“He could easily answer any questions I asked. His knowledge level is already at the standard of the fifth-years. However, his practical ability is still unknown!”
Teacher Zhou honestly reported.
Upon hearing this, all the teachers here glanced at Tantai Yutang, feeling a little shocked. Knowledge level at the standard of the fifth-years? How impressive. However, when they looked at the sickly, pale white face of Tantai Yutang, they understood.
A long-term illness would make a patient into a good doctor. This youth most probably studied medical arts because he wanted to live for a few years more.
“Right, since this is the case, both Tantai Yutang and Li Ziqi can join the new student group and represent the Central Province Academy in the competition!”
An Xinhui made the final decision.
“Che, five of his personal students are participating. Teacher Sun can be considered to have broken a record, right?”
Some teachers mumbled, feeling envy.
“Wait a minute!”
Zhang Hanfu stepped out and spoke strictly, “The rules have to be made clear. If this incident today—where people use such a method to gain a name slot to participate in a competition-happens again in the future, what would happen to the school’s prestige?”
His words weren’t wrong. If students began fighting in private for the sake of name slots, things would be in a mess.
“What is Vice Headmaster Zhang’s meaning?”
Sun Mo knew that Zhang Hanfu wanted to target him.
“Since Teacher Sun trusts his personal disciples so much, how about this? For the new student competition this year, you guys have to win the championship!”
Zhang Hanfu was very sinister, designing a trap for Sun Mo.
Sun Mo would surely not dare to reply. If he didn’t manage to get the championship, this would eventually affect the relationship between him and his students.
“Since the school made an exception and allowed them to join the competition, they should naturally do their best to achieve a good result that can shut the mouths of the others up. If not, they should just quit now and give the chance to other students.”
Zhang Hanfu glanced toward the reserve team. Over there, there were a few students whom he regarded highly, and some could be considered to be from his faction. Hence, he had to acquire the greatest opportunity to perform for them.
As expected, the students of the reserve team were immediately agitated after hearing this.
Who wouldn’t wish to participate in such a major-scale competition?
If their performance was outstanding, they might even attract the attention of some great teachers. If that happened, their future would be boundless. “What if I win the championship?” Sun Mo’s expression was filled with unhappiness. (Are you done yet? Do you really think that this daddy is made from mud and doesn’t know how to be angry?)
“If you win the championship, I will resign immediately!”
Zhang Hanfu sneered.
During these ten years, the Central Province Academy had declined while the Myriad Daos Academy had risen. This led to the excellent students being poached away by the Myriad Daos Academy.
If it wasn’t for the school’s great teachers being outstanding enough and able to mold these students who couldn’t be considered geniuses into talents, allowing the Central Province Academy to get an average result in the league tournament every year, the school would have long since been delisted.
One could say that the new student competition was the greatest weakness of the Central Province Academy.
“Sure, please remember what you said today!” Sun Mo went all-out.
“I will definitely remember. But what about you?” Zhang Hanfu asked. “If I cannot win the championship, I will naturally resign as well!”
Before Sun Mo could finish his sentence, An Xinhui lost her composure.
“Teacher Sun, be cautious!” If Sun Mo left like that, what should she do?
“Teacher Sun, you are already an adult, don’t be so childish!”
Wang Su persuaded him.
After hearing these words, all the teachers revealed envious expressions. Being able to make a perfectionist like Wang Su persuade him; it could be seen that Wang Su truly admired Sun Mo.
In a scene like this, the students naturally had no authority to speak. However, they were very worried. If Sun Mo left, wouldn’t that mean that they wouldn’t be able to enjoy the massages from God Hands any longer?
Some students even had the idea of changing schools, following Sun Mo.
“Sun Mo, a gentleman would never break his
word!”
Zhang Hanfu was joyful.
“Come, let’s strike our palms to seal the deal. The loser has to scram!”
Sun Mo couldn’t be bothered to talk to Zhang Hanfu anymore.
“Fine!”
Zhang Hanfu strode forward impatiently.
“Sun Mo!”
An Xinhui interposed herself between them and blocked Sun Mo. “Stop playing around!”
At this instant, An Xinhui was no longer Headmaster An. She was now the Elder Sis An of the past that looked at Little Momo following her around. Her tone was filled with grumbling as well as some concern!
