Absolute Great Teacher

Chapter 820: Insta-defeat Situation

Everyone only had one life, and a life-and-death battle would use their lives as a gambling stake. After that, both parties should have no complaints even if they died. Hence, unless one had an unresolvable major grudge that made the two parties unable to exist under the same sky, it was very rare for people to fight in a life-and-death battle.

Xiao Di’s group was like hawks. They did things radically because they wanted Sun Mo to lose face and scram out of the Dragon Subduing Academy.

Killing?

They had never thought of this before.

After all, everyone was a great teacher. Even if they disliked Sun Mo, it was still necessary to give him some courtesy.

But when Sun Mo directly asked for a life-and-death battle, this caused Xiao Di and the others to feel nervous in their hearts.

Those who dared to propose such a thing were either self-confident geniuses who knew their strength well or braggarts who were retards. No matter how they looked at Sun Mo, he didn’t seem like the latter one.

Jin Yan hesitated, but it was hard to dismount after riding on a tiger.

“Old Jin, it’s up to you now. I will take charge if things turn bad,” Xiao Di encouraged.

Jin Yan, who was feeling a little jittery, relaxed when he heard this. This was because the meaning of Xiao Di’s words was clear. (Once there’s something wrong with the situation, I will act and help you.)

“Teacher Sun, please!”

Jin Yan clasped his fist.

“Ha, let me make things clear first. We won’t stop until one of us dies. If an outsider helps either of us, that person is to commit suicide immediately.”

After Sun Mo spoke to the end, his tone grew sharp.

Through his Divine Sight, he could clearly see Jin Yan’s will wavering. He truly couldn’t be bothered to fight such a soft persimmon.

“Eh!”

Jin Yan’s plan was destroyed, and this caused his countenance to turn unsightly. Why did the battle sound crueler the more they spoke about it?

Honestly speaking, Jin Yan didn’t fear a fight. Even if he had to be bed-ridden for a year, he wasn’t afraid. However, if he died for no reason at all, wouldn’t that be too much of a misfortune?

(Let alone marrying a wife, I’ve never even held the hands of a girl before.)

“Jin Yan, we great teachers have to be courageous when faced with danger. Only then can we be the role models of students. If not, how can you have the face to get your students to do something even you cannot do?”

Xiao Di berated and Priceless Advice was activated.

When the golden light shone on Jin Yan, his aura began to surge as his will grew determined.

“Teacher Sun, please guide me!”

Jin Yan’s wrist turned and slashed out a beam of light using a curved blade of over two feet long.

Swish~

Sun Mo pulled out his wooden blade.

Wielding Sword Drinking Horse!

Swish~

Spirit qi from Sun Mo’s body gushed out and a steed formed under him. He rode it and was like a blast of lightning as he sped toward Jin Yan.

“The deities above, what cultivation art is this? It actually allows him to summon a war horse?”

“It’s definitely a peerless-grade saint-tier cultivation art!”

“No wonder Teacher Sun wants a life-and-death battle, so it’s because he trains in a top-level cultivation art.”

The students discussed with their eyes wide open, not willing to give up any chance they had for learning.

When Jin Yan saw Sun Mo rapidly charging over, his heart thumped as he began to feel some panic.

There was no solution to it. The threat of a top-level cultivation art was simply so tyrannical. It allowed one to have the prowess to jump levels and kill their enemies.

“Jin Yan, calm down!”

Xiao Di roared. “The more you panic, the quicker you lose.”

Jin Yan also knew this logic. Hence, he forced himself to calm down, but at this moment, Sun Mo already arrived in front of him.

Yujing Ballad, Midnight Songs Poetry, Golden Jade Hibiscus.

It was first a ballad that entered Jin Yan’s ears, disrupting his sense of hearing. After that, two beautiful hibiscus bloomed before his eyes as Sun Mo slashed his wooden blade out.

They were so large that they blocked his entire vision.

Jin Yan subconsciously retreated. After that, he suffered a punch at his shoulder blade and got blasted through the air.

Bang!

Jin Yan’s chin smashed onto the ground. It was so painful that he wanted to die. If this was a normal situation, he would just pretend to faint to avoid embarrassment from the defeat. However, this was a life-and-death battle.

(Wait a minute, Sun Mo is a great teacher. He most probably won’t kill an opponent that’s pretending to be unconscious, right?)

However, just when he closed his eyes, a stream of sword qi blasted over and slashed into his legs.

Swish~

Argh!

The intense pain caused Jin Yan to scream in agony.

(It’s over, it’s over. Is there something wrong with my head? Why did I agree to a life-and-death battle?)

Jin Yan crawled, wanting to avoid Sun Mo.

Continue to fight?

Stop joking. One would be able to tell if someone was an expert or not with just a move. He couldn’t even see Sun Mo’s move clearly and was thrashed so badly. Was there even still a need to continue fighting?

“Concede and I’ll spare you!”

Sun Mo berated.

Upon seeing the wooden blade about to slash down on his head, all glory was useless compared to his little life. Hence, Jin Yan anxiously pleaded for mercy. “I’ve lost.”

The instant before the wooden blade touched his head, Jin Yan’s body was drenched in cold sweat. After that, he swore he would never fight in a life-and-death battle ever again.

“I’ve said that you are too weak and shouldn’t fight against me, but you refused to listen. Are you not suffering now?”

Sun Mo rapped Jin Yan’s head.

Jin Yan clutched his head. He really wanted to pretend that he had fainted.

Luckily, Sun Mo didn’t continue to insult him.

Mei Ziyu applauded softly.

“This cultivation art is somewhat impressive.”

Duanmu Li praised.

“Trash!”

Xiao Di scolded and turned his head to look at his comrades.

They had to win no matter what today.

The majority of the people in his group immediately shifted their gazes away, pretending to look at the scenery.

It wasn’t that they were cowards, but the enemy was too powerful.

This was a situation of insta-defeat!

Why did Xiao Di send Jin Yan out?

Because that fellow was one of the strongest in their group. Since he even suffered an insta-defeat, wouldn’t the others lose even more miserably if they went up?

“Tie Le, you go.”

Xiao Di pointed out.

“I ate something wrong yesterday and have a bad stomach ache today.”

Tie Le found an excuse.

He might be able to win, but it would be a very very close battle. Besides, he might even be heavily injured. (Since that’s the case, what’s the point of fighting? I won’t fight in battles where there’s only a 50% chance of victory.)

“Would you always have a stomach ache when you come across such opponents in the future?”

Xiao Di questioned.

Tie Le’s face turned red. He felt somewhat unhappy but didn’t dare to make any rebuttal.

“Batubu, you go. This fellow should be at the eighth level of the Divine Force Realm. His cultivation base is similar to yours.”

Xiao Di chose the second strongest guy in the group.

“This ought to be the case from the start!”

Batubu cracked his fingers and walked out. “How about a life-and-death battle?”

“That is precisely what I want.” Sun Mo brandished his blade.

“Batubu, eighth level of the Divine Force Realm. Please guide me!”

“Sun Mo, eighth level of the Divine Force Realm. Please guide me!”

After the two exchanged greetings, they rushed at each other with extreme speed.

Batubu slashed out. At the same time, his left hand took on a form resembling an eagle claw and rapidly grabbed toward Sun Mo’s eyes.

This fellow could multitask. This was why he could display his blade arts and wrestling techniques simultaneously. He was very troublesome to deal with.

Sun Mo flicked his wrist and his wooden blade manifested millions of blade shadows.

Spear Rain Pearflower!

Swish~ Swish~ Swish~

Numerous flowers bloomed. They were all very gorgeous and even emitted a sweet fragrance.

“It can’t be, right? Why do I feel that this is also a saint-tier cultivation art?”

“There’s no need to ‘feel’, it is one.”

“But this doesn’t seem to be a blade art!”

Among the crowd, some great teachers with good judgment were watching the show.

Batubu retracted his eagle claw. His hands grabbed the hilt of his long blade as he slashed out in anger.

Sky-towering Waves.

Swish~

All the pearflowers were like being blown away by the wind and rain and vanished directly. But after that, a few streams of blade qi exploded forth.

Sword Flash!

Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!

Batubu brandished his blade to block and looked incomparably valiant.

“Handsome!”

“Batubu, kill him!”

“The Great Jin Country is invincible!”

A group of people cheered, feeling that Batubu was about to win.

“Stop shouting!”

Yet, Batubu couldn’t voice out the bitterness in his heart. Earlier, he had been mocking Jin Yan for being too noob, but now when he was the one fighting, only then did he know that Sun Mo was simply too strong.

Although he managed to block three moves from Sun Mo and appeared very imposing, in truth, he completely had no idea where Sun Mo’s position was.

How to fight?

As expected, another stream of blade qi suddenly appeared before his eyes. If it wasn’t for Batubu’s reactions being fast enough, he would have been cut into two.

“Can I concede?”

Batubu didn’t want to fight anymore.

If it was a normal battle, he would be able to give it his all and treat Sun Mo as a sparring partner. But now if he really forced Sun Mo’s hands too much, he might die here.

“Daring to be distracted in the midst of a life-and-death battle? Do you treat me as non-existent?”

A mocking voice rang out beside his ear, and Sun Mo’s wooden blade directly pierced forward.

Sword Dragon Ridding the Armor!

Roar!

A vast amount of spirit qi gushed out from the wooden blade and instantly transformed into a giant dragon roaring with anger. Its maw was wide open and swallowed Batubu who couldn’t react in time.

Bang!

The giant dragon slammed into the ground and disintegrated. At the same time, Batubu’s weapon and clothes disintegrated as well. His defense was completely broken. Also, his body froze and he couldn’t move.

Seeing Sun Mo’s wooden blade slashing over, Batubu hurriedly opened his mouth to plead for mercy.

“I’ve lost!”

Batubu didn’t want to concede, but his will of wanting to survive still compelled him to do so.

The entire Draconic Human Great Hall fell silent when the giant dragon manifested. This was so even for the great teachers watching at the side.

They were awed by the power of Sun Mo’s cultivation art and felt extremely envious as well as a tiny bit of jealousy. After that, they heard Batubu’s plead for mercy.

Tribal people who had always regarded winning and losing as something very important actually didn’t criticize Batubu harshly at this moment.

After all, no matter who it was that fought against Sun Mo, that person would probably lose as well.

“One can even choose to concede in a life-and-death battle?”

Sun Mo stopped and asked with a smile.

“This…”

Batubu was extremely embarrassed and could only smile awkwardly.

“In the future, when you see me, you have to take a detour. Don’t let me see you.”

Sun Mo instructed.

“I understand.”

Batubu looked at Sun Mo’s blade and knew that it might be embarrassing if he agreed, but if he didn’t, he would die. Hence, he could only lower his head and be a turtle that pulled its head in.

“Is this the way you speak? Do you have no manners?”

Sun Mo lectured.

“Eh!”

Batubu started for a while and finally understood. He lowered his head in apology. “Teacher Sun, I’ve benefited from your teachings. I was wrong, I actually thought that I could fight equally against this man from the Central Plains. I was truly naive.”

After seeing Batubu’s miserable ending, Tie Le felt incomparably rejoiceful. Luckily, he was smart enough and didn’t take the lead to go and fight. If not, he might be beaten so badly that his sh*t flowed out of him.

Sun Mo stared at Xiao Di and then the others. “It can’t be that you guys don’t want to fight anymore, right?”

This group of hawks felt very terrible after being provoked like this.

“You guys should just come at me together!”

Sun Mo suggested. “In any case, if any of you fought me one-on-one, that would be considered freebies for me.”

Hua~

Sun Mo’s words caused a commotion in the crowd because it was truly too arrogant.

(How many people does Xiao Di have in his group? Nine! You actually want them to fight you at the same time? Even nine wooden pillars would be enough to exhaust you to death from you trying to break them all.)

“Sun Mo, don’t be an intolerable bully. I’m coming!”

Xiao Di moved forward.

“Right, use your Great Solar Evil Destroying Art to crush him ruthlessly.”

His comrades cheered.
