Chapter 1071 - The Start of the 4-Star Great Teacher Examination

The painting was completed!

Because Wondrous Blossom had occurred, the black-white painting was now endowed with various colors.

The orange-colored battle attire, the golden spirit qi, and the long hair that was burning like flames…

“Although the style of this painting is completely different from the frequently seen Traditional Character Paintings, I don’t feel it’s bizarre at all. There’s a different sense of beauty arising from its magnificence.”

Prince Consort Qi evaluated.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

It was like someone who was used to traditional painting first viewing an oil painting. That person would surely feel ‘what the hell was that?’. They wouldn’t be able to experience the charm of oil paintings in terms of their aesthetic senses.

It was like a world-famous painting like Mona Lisa. How many people could understand the beauty within it? But if one took out the [Along the River During the Qingming Festival], no matter if they could understand or not, they would at the very least be stunned and exclaim ‘Damn!’.

Its drawing, concept, and essence were all top level.

“This should be an effect caused by Wondrous Blossom, right?”

Qin Yaoguang guessed.

“Definitely not!” Mei Ziyu shook her head. “This is because Sun Mo’s painting technique is too excellent, which causes the character painted to display its own charm.”

An Xinhui and Zheng Qingfang nodded. As for the others, their appreciation ability was weaker, and they couldn’t tell the reason.

Sun Mo’s character painting technique was at the grandmaster level. Moreover, he also adopted some aspects from manga when he drew the characters and some aspects from movies when it came to space and composition, perfect for the short-range scenery and long-range view.

The most fascinating scene was Li Ziqi erupting forth with spirit qi, fighting against the great devil king.

“Teacher, please continue to paint!”

Lu Zhiruo urged.

“I feel there should be more things!”

Xianyu Wei didn’t understand painting, but she kept feeling that the piece wasn’t finished yet.

“The intent is profound, seeing a mountain but not as a mountain. Wonderful! Wonderful!”

Zhang Qingfang stroked his beard and sighed. There was a look of agitation on his face.

Li Ziqi covered her mouth and was so emotional that tears could be seen in her eyes. She didn’t know what to say.

“How beautiful!”

Ying Baiwu felt envious. She also wanted a portrait painting of herself.

“What are you all doing?”

Li Xiu arrived.

Given her identity, although she entered Sun Mo’s manor, there was no need for the servants to report her arrival.

“You came at a good time. Quickly look at Sun Mo’s painting!”

Qi Mu`en showed off.

Li Xiu cast a glance over and was immediately stunned.

This painting was so bizarre, but its aura was extremely sharp. There was an intense spirit of dauntlessness and it felt so vivid that it was seeping out from the drawing paper.

“What is its name?”

Li Xiu was curious and glanced at Li Ziqi.

Everyone turned to Sun Mo.

“Ziqi, this is a gift for you. Why don’t you give it a name?”

Sun Mo was very incompetent at naming things.

“Teacher, please grant this painting a name!”

Li Ziqi smiled sweetly.

As long as the name was something her teacher came up with, even if the name was ‘doggy leftovers’, she would like it nonetheless.

“Let’s call it the [Dragon Ball Girl Qi-Eruption Painting] then?”

Sun Mo encouraged. “I hope you can become famous after a single fight in the personal student battle.”

“This student has remembered this.”

Li Ziqi bowed.

“This…”

Zheng Qingfang’s eyes twinkled as he smiled. “Ziqi, why don’t I temporarily keep it on your behalf?”

“Nope!”

Li Ziqi rejected it and cautiously kept the famous painting.

“Ai? There’s no rush, please allow everyone to admire it for a while longer, please?”

Zheng Qingfang knew how much Li Ziqi worshipped Sun Mo. She would definitely not give the painting up. If not, he would have tried to fight for it.

Sigh!

(I feel so regretful that I cannot collect Sun Mo’s masterpiece!)

“Great Teacher Sun, how much time do you usually spend on drawing?”

Li Xiu was curious. “According to what I know, you already have six famous paintings, not including this one?”

“There should be a total of seven. There’s another one named [Riches and Honor, Solitary Life Painting]. You guys should know it!”

Zheng Qingfang was very familiar with this.

“Also, he drew seven of them within three years!”

Li Ziqi blinked and stared in astonishment at her teacher. By calculating like this, her teacher was truly impressive. He was a famous painter that was delayed by his great teacher occupation.

“If my teacher fully focused on painting, he might really be able to leave his name behind in history forever!”

Qin Yaoguang was stunned.

Some famous painters didn’t even have so many masterpieces in their entire lives.

“Just a minor skill!”

Sun Mo truly had no interest in drawing, and he definitely couldn’t draw any masturb*tion materials or it would be too embarrassing if his disciples discovered them.

“What a pity!”

Li Xiu felt some regret while looking at the painting. She had missed the creation process. When she thought of this, she aimed a light kick at Qi Mu`en.

“Why didn’t you wake me?”

Everyone then enjoyed a feast in the manor and returned to school during the evening.

For the next three days, Sun Mo didn’t give any lectures or do any research. He merely slept and rested to relax himself and wait for the exam date to be announced.

When the first snow of the winter landed, the Saint Gate’s announcement also arrived.

The 4-star great teacher examination this year would be held on the third level of the Darkness Continent. All examinees who had registered themselves had to arrive at Songyang City before the first of November.

If they were not there on time, it would be treated as if they had failed.

The content of the examination was actually to lecture in the Ancient Sage Building. This was an extremely important place to the Saint Gate. So, other than for the examination, this place would be closed.

Also, the examinees were only allowed to bring their personal students with them. One could say that this was a relatively discreet examination.

Gu Xiuxun had planned to follow Sun Mo to broaden her horizons. But after listening to Mei Ziyu, she could only give up.

Three days later, Sun Mo’s preparations were done and he brought all his personal students along with him.

Jin Mujie and her own personal students set out together with Sun Mo’s group. However, these people had heavy looks on their faces.

“If I knew about this, I wouldn’t have registered myself!”

Jin Mujie sighed.

If it was an ordinary 4-star examination, she would definitely have no problem passing it. The difficulty lay in the personal student battle. But this time around, Jin Mujie wasn’t confident in herself.

This was giving lectures to ancient sages. If one wasn’t capable enough, one definitely wouldn’t be able to convince them.

Everyone first rushed to Shangjing. They then directly arrived at Songyang City through a teleportation formation.

Once they arrived at the Darkness Continent, Ying Baiwu immediately started to puke. In fact, her body could be seen swelling at a speed visible to the naked eyes.

“Why is this happening?”

Lu Zhiruo didn’t understand.

Usually speaking, the weaker one’s body was, the greater the adverse effects would be. But Ying Baiwu’s body and constitution definitely belonged to the same level as Xuanyuan Po.

“Do you want to return?”

Sun Mo asked while he used the ancient massaging technique to treat the iron-headed girl.

(There’s an 80% chance that there’s some hidden secret on this girl’s body.)

After all, it was still unknown who her real father was.

“No!”

Ying Baiwu shook her head and stubbornly tried to stand.

“Yaoguang, Xianyu, you two take care of her.”

Sun Mo instructed.

Five days later, the assembly date arrived. During the early morning, Sun Mo and Jin Mujie brought all their personal students and headed to the branch of the Saint Gate in Songyang City.

At this place, both Sun Mo and Jin Mujie had to take the first segment of the exam, and that was to confirm whether their number of great teacher halos was sufficient or not. As for the personal students, their identities had to be verified to avoid people feigning to be students for the sake of touring the Ancient Sage Building.
