âTeacher Sun?â
The hostages quickly turned their heads and looked around but didnât see anyone. Their gazes then landed on those black-clothed men.
Could it be that Teacher Sun had infiltrated in?
âBattlegod Canyon? Dragon language?â
Helian Xue was surprised.
He was subscribed to the [Great Teacher Report] and thus had seen this name before. It was a super rising star who had gotten first place twice in a year, deciphered the Battlegod Canyonâs murals, and obtained the Battlegod Catalog
Sun Mo was in the Great Teachers Hero Rankings, a grandmaster-level spirit runist, and had many great reputations such as Black Doggy Sun and One-Vote âSunâ. He almost crushed Jiang Ji on the Great Teachers Hero Rankings.
âHold on, this is the time frame for the 3-star great teacher examinations. Could it be that the Dragon Subduing Academy is the examination venue this year?â
Helian Xue suddenly came to a realization.
If Teacher Sun was really the Sun Mo from the Central Province Academy, then those achievements he had obtained whilst in the school wouldnât be a surprise.
This was how strong a super rising star should be.
âOh, right, I forgot about Sun Mo.â
Murong Ye chuckled.
Their plan was to seize the Great Desolation Dragon Subduing Scripture as well as to usurp the headmaster position, so how could they possibly not keep an eye on everything that was taking place here? Therefore, when they saw Wanyan Mei captured, they already expected that Sun Mo would come.
It was because given Sun Moâs reputation and capabilities, heâd take the risk regardless if his plan was to save Wanyan Mei and the other students, or to benefit from the side and get his hands on the schoolâs ultimate divine art.
There was no helping it. When the benefit was too great, it could drive people crazy.
Hearing this, Murong Mingyue, who was standing behind Murong Ye, stiffened up and looked a little pale.
âTake off your masks!â
A star general bellowed, drawing out his long blade and staring at his subordinates.
All the masks were taken off with the exception of one person.
Swoosh!
Everyoneâs gazes looked over.
âTeacher Duanmu, I even had the thought of headhunting you to the Central Province Academy.â
Sun Mo joked and took off his mask.
Even without the star general shouting out, he was already planning to expose himself.
Duanmu Li was trying to force him out with words? That wouldnât happen.
When Duanmu Li had been speaking, his battle pet had stared over. It was because they were familiar with the scent with every one of their masterâs subordinates. Sun Moâs scent was unfamiliar to them.
âWhat audacity! Address him as Lord Starlord.â
The star general reproached.
âLittle Mo, donât be rude.â Duanmu Li reproached, âTeacher Sun is my distinguished guest.â
Hearing this, the bunch of hostages looked surprised. However, what astonished them even more had yet to come.
âTeacher Sun, I admire you a lot. Why not join my great teacher group?â
The powerful Four Symbols Starlord had extended an invitation.
âAs expected, people with talent wonât be lacking in popularity no matter where they go.â
Helian Xue suddenly felt disappointed.
Look at Sun Mo. Even though he was captured, he was treated with courtesy, unlike them, hostages that no one cared about.
âTeacher Sun, you can consider me too!â
Murong Ye spoke up, âWork as a head teacher first. In a few years, the position of vice-headmaster will be yours.â
âPlease, heâs already a vice-headmaster!â
Duanmu Li rolled his eyes.
âCan the Central Province Academy be compared to our great Dragon Subduing Academy?â
Murong Ye mocked.
He had the right to do so. It was because their school was one of the three most famous schools in Middle-Earth Nine Provinces.
âYou barbarians must have heard of this saying, âno matter how good the outside world is, thereâs no place like homeâ.â
Duanmu Li mocked.
âStarlord Duanmu, I hate people who use the term âbarbariansâ.â
Murong Yeâs expression turned savage.
The hostages were all stunned to see the two secondary saints fighting over Sun Mo.
âIâm sorry, Iâm very satisfied with my current position and life. I have no plans on making any changes.â
Sun Mo rejected.
Murong Ye frowned. He felt that Sun Mo didnât know what was good for him. However, he wore a calm expression because he had expected this outcome long ago after having spent so many days with Sun Mo.
If Sun Mo would give in, then he wouldnât receive his admiration.
But that was fine, take it slow!
Headhunting talent was like wooing women. Patience was required.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Duanmu Li +50. Friendly (750/1,000).
Hearing the systemâs notification, Sun Mo felt a little stunned. It seemed that Duanmu Li really admired him a lot.
It was a pity. If they hadnât met each other here, they could have become friends, right?
âAlright, if thereâs anything you want to say, letâs leave it for the future. Teacher Sun, can you decipher the dragon language?â
Murong Ye asked.
This âTeacher Sunâ address wasnât out of courtesy but spoken in view of Sun Moâs battle results. Otherwise, Murong Ye would have called him directly by his name.
âIâm not sure!â
This was the first time Sun Mo came here as well, so how could he know about it? Moreover, he had thrown a glance and was certain that they werenât spirit runes.
âIâll give you half an hour. If you donât get anything out of it, youâre dead.â
Murong Yeâs patience was wearing thin. After all, he had to end everything before the Dragon Subduing Academyâs reinforcements came back. âIâll kill everyone every three minutes. Starting from now!â
A black-clothed man randomly pulled out a girl from amongst the hostages, putting a blade to her neck. He would chop her once the time was up.
âThis is really not my area of expertise.â Sun Mo frowned. âItâs useless even if you were to force me.â
Murong Ye clearly didnât believe his explanation and waved his hand.
Swoosh!
The black-clothed man raised the blade and slashed it down. A head rolled.
Ah!
Wet and hot blood splattered onto Wanyan Meiâs face. This princess finally couldnât hold it in anymore and screamed.
Everyone would be scared when death was right before their eyes.
âYou...â
Sun Mo glared angrily at the sight of this scene.
âUncle!â
Murong Mingyue let out a loud cry. âYou promised me that you wouldnât hurt the students!â
âWe need to be flexible as the situation changes. Moreover, for this trash, living is just a waste of resources.â
Murong Ye was an elitist who felt that trash didnât have any right to live.
Therefore, after he became a headmaster, the first change he was going to implement was to have a great examination for the entire school. He would then expel half of the students and use the resources that were wasted on them to nurture the remaining students.
The second step would be to test all the great teachers. All the mediocre great teachers would be asked to leave. He would then pay a great price to headhunt the top-notch great teachers from all the great famous schools in Nine Provinces.
Only with outstanding teachers and outstanding students would they be able to produce top-notch talent and thus allow the Dragon Subduing Academy to stand at the very top of Nine Provinces.
âSecondary Saint Murong, this behavior is a little too much!â
Duanmu Li called Murong Ye secondary saint with a hint of mockery.
âDonât be hypocritical. Even if I donât kill them, youâll!â
Murong Ye said with contempt, âSun Mo, I donât have the time to talk crap with you. Since you are the first person to decipher the Battlegod murals, then you should be able to have some comprehension of this dragon language, right? Say it out!â
Murong Yeâs line of thought was right. Top-notch great teachers like Sun Mo had established a way of thinking. Moreover, he had also accumulated the experience of deciphering the Battlegod murals, so when he looked at the dragon language, he wasnât completely at a loss. He had a certain way of looking at them.
What Murong Ye wanted was this method.
Sun Mo clenched his fists and stopped saying anything. He walked toward the closest wall.
Divine Sight activated.
Moon Devouring Beast, carnivorous creature. Lived in the ancient era and had a massive figure. Their mouths were big, their teeth sharp, and they could digest metals.
There were soul waves adhered to them.
...
Looking at information he obtained from Divine Sight, Sun Mo frowned and continued walking over.
He had to find a flying-type ancient beast
It was because he only knew Air Proof and Freedom Proof from the divine language of spiritual control. What if he received a backlash if he were to recklessly summon the ancient ferocious beasts from the murals?
Even if Air Proof didnât work, at least he wouldnât suffer from a backlash.
As for Freedom Proof, it was useless.
Demonic Moon Bird. It liked to feed on blood. Nocturnal creature.
(Itâll be you then!)
Sun Mo released Air Proof.
Buzz!
The divine language of spiritual control rebounded and its effect was negated.
Murong Ye frowned. This wasnât easy. âStarlord Duanmu, do you have any other ways?â
They couldnât continue to drag things on!
âTeacher Sun, please back off. Let me!â
Duanmu Liâs expression was calm. To get his hands on the Great Desolation Dragon Subduing Scripture, he had laid low in this school for ten years. The amount of effort and time he had put into researching this place was even greater. It was at least 20 years.
He had considered this situation before and thus was in no hurry.
Very soon, a group of people who had black covers over their heads were dragged in by Duanmu Li. There wasnât a need for him to give out commands.
The black-clothed men dragged these people to those walls and started chopping their heads.
As the many heads rolled, the scent of blood instantly grew stronger.
âDonât kill me! Donât kill me!â
A voice rang out, filled with horror.
âBrother?â
Wanyan Mei gasped in surprise. This voice belonged to Wanyan Zhenghe.
âYour younger sister is too smart and I canât bear to kill her. I can only use you as a sacrifice then.â
Duanmu Li grabbed onto Wanyan Zhenghe, who was brought over by a black-clothed man, with one hand.
âIâm very outstanding as well. Iâm a genius and the candidate to succeed the Jin Countryâs throne. Iâll give you money and an official position. Iâll give you whatever you want. Please donât kill me.â
Wanyan Zhenghe cried. He had been sleeping soundly in his tent but when he opened his eyes, he had become a hostage. Those damned guards were really useless.
(After I go back, Iâll execute all nine generations of your family.)
Duanmu Li didnât care about these. He snapped his fingers loudly and a snake slid out from his sleeves. It then crawled onto Wanyan Zhengheâs body and with a âpaâ sound, bit onto his neck.
Gulp! Gulp!
The snake sucked on his blood, its body lighting up with a dark red glow.
âHmm?â Duanmu Li was surprised.
âWhatâs the matter?â Murong Ye frowned.
âTsk tsk, this little prince isnât of the blood lineage of the Jin Countryâs king!â
Duanmu Liâs lips twitched.
The people he caught were of the same blood lineage as the genius founder who had founded the Dragon Subduing Academy.
After so many years had passed, the blood lineage of the descendants had become thinner. This resulted in them requiring to use the blood of more people to complete the sacrificial offering.
The faction of the Jin Countryâs king also had the blood lineage of that founder. However, Wanyan Zhenghe didnât have that.
âWhat?â
Everyone was greatly surprised. This was a great gossip material.
Moreover, given the Four Symbols Starlordâs distinguished status, there was no way that heâd lie about this.
Wanyan Zhengheâs body trembled and he revealed an expression of disbelief.
âYouâre spouting gibberish! Iâm the son that Father dotes on the most!â
Wanyan Zhenghe bellowed.
