Chapter 322 Sun Mo, You Are Actually a Spirit Controller?
When the eight hours of waiting ended, the teachers in the White Dew Building were like fired arrows and immediately shot out. The speed of everyone was roughly the same, and the distance between them was several hundred meters at most. Everything remained the same until roughly about three hours later. A fork appeared in the road. “Wait a minute!”
Sun Mo stopped. “What’s wrong?”
Fan Yao’s forehead creased. “If you urgently need to pee, quickly go and resolve it!”
“Let’s head to the right path!”
Sun Mo shaded his eyes with his hands and glanced into the distance.
“Right side?”
Fan Yao frowned. He glanced at the groups far ahead. Right now, many teachers ran past them, and all of them chose the left path with no exception.
“Did you discover a problem?”.
Gu Xiuxun asked in a low voice. From her experience of being acquainted with Sun Mo for so long, she knew that he wouldn’t speak without thinking.
“Yes!”
Sun Mo nodded.
“What’s the problem?”
Song Ren asked but Fan Yao lifted his hand, indicating for Sun Mo not to reply. He discovered that many other teachers had also stopped and looked at them.
“Pretend to take a break and drink some water!’
Fan Yao spoke in a low voice. After that, they left the main avenue and headed into the forest at the side.
“Teacher Sun, what’s going on exactly?” “Pass me the map for a look!”
Sun Mo stretched out his hand.
Fan Yao took out the map and passed it to Sun Mo.
Sun Mo was cautiously looking at it. He recalled the evident landmarks they saw on their way here and did a reference.
“The map has a mistake?”
Gu Xiuxun’s reaction was fast and she thought of a possibility. “Impossible, I’ve been comparing the route to the landmarks indicated in the map...”
Fan Yao shook his head. However, he abruptly stopped after speaking halfway. There were no mistakes with his map, but what if the map given to the students had a mistake?
If that was the case, it would defeat their purpose if they continued like this.
“I don’t know if the map has a mistake or not, but the new student groups went to the right.” Sun Mo explained. “It can’t be, right?”
Song Ren was startled.
“How did you know this?”
Fan Yao asked.
Gu Xiuxun was waiting for the answer as well. However, her eyes drifted toward Song Ren and Fan Yao.
Song Ren’s performance was average.
As for Fan Yao, he was very outstanding. He didn’t act alone and was not arrogant. After Sun Mo gave the ‘impractical suggestion’, he didn’t refute it and immediately analyzed the suggestion. Also, his question was on point.
“Earlier when the students moved out, I sent a spiritual beast to follow them. It told me the path the students took.”
Sun Mo explained.
“What?”
Song Ren scratched his ears. “What did you
say?”
“Teacher Sun, this isn’t the time to make a joke!”
Fan Yao furrowed his brows.
Gu Xiuxun had a look of astonishment on her face. She didn’t say anything.
“I’m not joking!”
Sun Mo sighed. However, he knew that the credibility of his words was truly too low.
“You have the God Hands, you are a spirit rune grandmaster, and your cultivation base is also at the sixth level of the blood-ignition realm, right? Now, you are actually telling me that you are a spiritual beast controller as well?
“My heavens. Are you really 20 years old? No, even for many great teachers who are 30 years old, they wouldn’t have accomplishments like yours!”
It wasn’t that Fan Yao wanted to suspect Sun Mo, but this sounded too crazy.
For the proficiency level of a subject, from elementary to the expert-grade, and to the point where one could enter a classroom to teach students, it was impossible if one didn’t spend seven to eight years mastering the subject.
Even if Sun Mo started learning when he was in his mother’s womb and didn’t rest at all for these twenty years, it was impossible for him to achieve what he said.
“Teacher Sun, stop joking. Time is tight!”
Song Ren persuaded.
Speaking of which, given that there were so many occupations, which occupation depended the most on talent, exhausted the most time, and was also the most dangerous?
It was naturally the art of spirit beast control!
One had to communicate and interact with ferocious beasts every day to build up their relationship...
And every night during meditation, one had to use all sorts of rituals to sense the spiritual beasts in the spiritual realm. This required an exceedingly high amount of talent, or one wouldn’t be able to sense anything. Also, even if one sensed something, they had to constantly try to form a connection and convince the spiritual beast to sign a spiritual contract.
For other occupations, they could try again if they failed. But if a spirit controller failed, they might be devoured by the spiritual beast instead!
“You are a beast tamer? And also a spirit controller?”
Fan Yao asked.
For the former, one would be able to control the ferocious gigantic avian species or beasts in nature, and they could even control trees and flowers. For the latter, they could summon spiritual beasts from the spiritual world through mysterious rituals.
Usually speaking, the latter path had a higher difficulty.
“I can be considered a spirit controller!”
Sun Mo and Little Silver signed a contract. Hence, from the concept of things, he could indeed be considered a spirit controller.
“What do you mean by ‘can be considered?”
Fan Yao didn’t like unreliable words like that. “Where’s your spiritual beast then? What is it? Where is it?”
“Sorry, no comment. But I can use my life to guarantee that Li Ziqi and the others headed right at the fork.”
How was it possible for Sun Mo to reveal that his spiritual beast was an eight-gate cloud? As the saying went, ‘treasuring a jade ring becomes a crime’. Once he revealed it, he absolutely didn’t need to dream about leading a stable and peaceful life in the future.
Ah!
Fan Yao clutched his hair in annoyance. Logic told him that Sun Mo was talking nonsense, but from Sun Mo’s manner, he didn’t seem to be someone who would joke around in the competition. Besides, Sun Mo was An Xinhui’s fiance and was a half-owner of the school. He had no reason to destroy things.
“What do the two of you think?”
Fan Yao asked.
“Unless Teacher Sun takes out evidence that he is a spirit controller, I won’t believe it!”
Song Ren insisted.
“I trust Sun Mo!”
After some hesitation, Gu Xiuxun chose to stand on Sun Mo’s side.
“Can you guys not act like this?”
Fan Yao was speechless. (So, in the end, I have to be the one to make the decision?) This caused him to feel very vexed because once there was a mistake with their strategy, it might result in terrifying consequences.
Sun Mo pulled out his pocket watch for a look. After that, he leaped onto a large tree and glanced in the direction of the fork.
Gu Xiuxun wasn’t idle. She was observing the other teachers.
“What should we do?”
Song Ren was speechless. “It’s true that Sun Mo is very impressive. If he really is a spirit controller, his impressiveness would truly know no bounds!”
If spiritual beasts were so easily captured, the entire street would be filled with spirit controllers.
Fan Yao was conflicted.
“Teacher Fan, actually, you are a very impressive teacher, but your only flaw is that when you encounter trouble, you would hesitate and be indecisive. You can’t make a decision even after half-a-day.”
Sun Mo’s tone of voice was filled with sincerity. If Fan Yao had no capabilities, he wouldn’t have gained the approval of An Xinhui and Wang Su, allowing him to become the group leader.
Swish!
Priceless Advice was activated.
Golden light cascaded down on Fan Yao, causing his spirits to stir. He instantly reflected and realized something.
“That’s true, I’m too irresolute.”
Fan Yao shook his head. After that, he inhaled deeply. He had made a decision. “Teacher Sun, Teacher Gu, let’s go. We are setting out!”
“We will take an indirect route through the forest here, let’s try our best not to be seen by anyone.”
“Ah?”
Song Ren was stunned. Fan Yao’s words sounded like he believed in Sun Mo and wanted them to take the right path.
“Teacher Fan, your emotions are not stable due to the influence of the great teacher halo. You must not make a decision recklessly!”
Song Ren grew anxious.
“Teacher Sun, we cannot see your spiritual beast but if you want us to believe you, you should tell us its name at the very least, right?”
Song Ren’s strong point was that his character was steady and he wasn’t a risk-taker. This was why An Xinhui had chosen him. But at this moment, he became a stumbling block.
“I apologize!”
Sun Mo shook his head.
“Alright, stop quarreling. Just do things according to what I say!”
Fan Yao clapped.
“Teacher Song, Teacher Sun isn’t mistaken. Look at those teachers!”
Gu Xiuxun reminded them.
Over ten teachers stopped at the fork. Some were resting, some continued heading forward, and some also entered the forest at the side.
Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to tell if anything was wrong. However, it was clear that tension was high among these teachers. They were all extremely vigilant. This was sufficient to say that there was a problem.
That was right. Gu Xiuxun wasn’t able to judge which path the students had taken, but she could glean some information through these details.
Song Ren’s heart thumped. (Seems like it’s true!)
If these people didn’t have a guilty conscience, why were they so vigilant toward others?
Sun Mo glanced at Gu Xiuxun. This masochist was as expected of the top graduate from the Myriad Daos Academy. She had found the crux so quickly.
After Song Ren was convinced, the four continued on their way and immediately raised their speed to the maximum.
Their thinking was simple. If their judgment was wrong, they could still make up for some deficiency by rushing at full speed.
However, they considered too much. When the sunset glow filled the sky, they saw Zhang Yanzong’s group. “We found them!”
Fan Yao had an excited look on his face and he waved his fist with force. However, he felt a lingering fear. If it wasn’t for Sun Mo reminding them in time, it was unknown where they would be now.
The results of the first round could be very well imagined. The consequences would have been extremely dire.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Fan Yao +50. Friendly (110/1,000).
“Those teachers that ran down the wrong path would most probably cry if they knew, right?”
Song Ren grew joyful. After that, he glanced at Sun Mo and patted his shoulder. “Teacher Sun, I blamed you wrongly!” “Hehe!”
Sun Mo didn’t really mind.
“Speaking of which, are you really a spirit controller?”
Song Ren was very curious. He involuntarily grabbed Sun Mo by his arm. “You are specializing in so many subjects, don’t you even need sleep?”
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Song Ren +30. Friendly (140/1,000).
“Teacher Song, the problem now is that the maps of the students have a mistake!”
Gu Xiuxun was mentally musing at why he was concerned about Sun Mo even in this situation. But then again, she was also very concerned.
Song Ren glanced at the surroundings and lowered his voice. “Do you want to use your spiritual beast to transmit a message to them?”
The observers had said before that all forms of communication between teachers and students were prohibited. However, a method like using a spiritual beast was more covert.
“Song Ren, please compete fairly. If you say something like this again, I will revoke your participation qualifications!”
A low and solemn voice rang out. It felt like a cold drop of water from winter had dripped onto his neck. Song Ren immediately shivered.
Observer #63 appeared suddenly before everyone, akin to an apparition.
“You guys actually discovered the flaw in the map and found your student group on the first day. Outstanding performance!”
As the observer spoke, he recorded something in a red-colored leather book.
Gu Xiuxun’s eyes brightened. “Do we get extra points?”
“Nope!”
The observer’s voice was cold. He wouldn’t tell these teachers that their current performance would be recorded. In the future, this information could be used as a reference when they participated in the great teacher examination.
“What methods did you guys employ to trace the student group?”
The observer asked.
Fan Yao and the other two glanced toward Sun Mo.
