"Great Teacher Sun, be careful. He cultivates the saint-tier cultivation art, Great Solar Evil Destroying Art. It's relatively powerful."

Duanmu Li was worried.

​​

For young people, it would be very bad if they lost themselves to their pride and ego, not placing anyone else in their eyes just because of a few victories.

Xiao Di's had problems with his character, but he was really strong. If not, it would be impossible for him to become the boss of this group.

"Many thanks for the reminder."

Sun Mo surveyed Xiao Di, wanting more of such opponents. Xiao Di was like a child taking the initiative to come over and give Sun Mo a cultivation art. Even if Sun Mo couldn't win, it was guaranteed that he would be able to gain a saint-tier cultivation art.

Huge profit!

Xiao Di's weapon was a pair of steel boxing gloves. After he wore them, his arms looked like two gigantic totem pillars that could cleave apart mountains and break bones.

"Xiao Di, ninth-level of the Divine Force Realm. Please guide me."

"Sun Mo, eighth-level of the Divine Force Realm. Please guide me."

After exchanging greetings, Xiao Di impatiently lunged toward Sun Mo. He wanted to insta-kill Sun Mo and have a smooth victory.

Hu~

His heavy punches created gusts of winds that blew so furiously, causing Sun Mo to be unable to open his eyes.

Soul Eradication!

Boom!

Before the steel fists arrived, a mental impact had blasted into Sun Mo's body, causing his mind to shake and his breathing to be obstructed.

The attack that Sun Mo had prepared wasn't able to unleash its full prowess because of this.

Bang!

The wooden blade collided with the steel-covered fist.

Xiao Di's countenance changed. As expected, Sun Mo was a formidable opponent. He could sense that although Sun Mo's attack wasn't perfect, it was still powerful enough to face his attack. This meant that Sun Mo's strength was a hair stronger than his.

However, only by defeating such an opponent would boasting be worth it.

Xiao Di immediately adjusted his mental state and did his utmost.

Great Solar Illumination.

Bzz!

Xiao Di's fists suddenly erupted forth with great amounts of spirit qi and shone with a dazzling light akin to the sun, causing people to be unable to look at them straight.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Xiao Di's steel fists were like wheels of a car, constantly blasting toward Sun Mo.

Sun Mo's vision was covered in bright white light and he couldn't see anything. He could only fight depending on his senses.

One couldn't help but say that Sun Mo was suffering a disadvantage because of carelessness. Luckily, because his defense was strong enough, he didn't suffer any injuries.

"As expected, one mustn't underestimate any saint-tier cultivation arts."

Thinking about how he would soon be able to learn this cultivation art, Sun Mo was in a terribly good mood.

"Boss, we are cheering for you. Finish him!"

Xiao Di's little brothers immediately started cheering when they saw him occupying the advantage with his ferocious attacks.

Duanmu Li glanced at Mei Ziyu and discovered that she was standing in a relaxed manner and looked as pure as a lily. She had a very calm look on her face, and he couldn't help but feel surprised.

"Are you not worried?"

"Why should I be?" Mei Ziyu smiled. "Teacher Sun would win for sure."

"Hehe!"

Duanmu Li felt astonished. "You really have a lot of confidence in Teacher Sun."

"So what even if his opponent knows a saint-tier cultivation art?" Mei Ziyu's tone was filled with intense trust. "No matter how strong this Xiao Di is, it's impossible for him to be stronger than Teacher Sun."

"..."

Duanmu Li started. (Are your words even treating Xiao Di as a human?)

Xiao Di was someone qualified to be a great teacher in the Dragon Subduing Academy after he graduated. It was said that right now, he was already starting to nurture the heirs of the golden-veil warriors of the great Jin Country.

Others thought that they were seeing a case of Xiao Di suppressing Sun Mo because his momentum was too strong, but Xiao Di was actually furrowing his brows in worry. This was because his attacks didn't bring about the desired effects.

Sun Mo was like a rock that withstood the raging winds and impact from the ferocious waves. He was immovable.

Swish~

Sun Mo returned his wooden blade to its sheath and welcomed the attacks with his fists instead.

Eternalism, Great Mercy!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Both parties clashed together. Sun Mo's fists were not covered in any protection, but his attacking might wasn't inferior and he didn't seem to be injured at all.

Boundless Sea of Suffering, Impermanence!

Pak! Pak! Pak!

As Sun Mo was fighting, his spirit qi condensed into a three-meter-tall Buddha statue behind him. After that, it was also waving its palms and sweeping them toward Xiao Di.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Buddha palms caused a large imprint to appear on the ground every time they were launched, kicking up clouds of dust.

"What cultivation art is this again? It feels so strong!"

"Don't have to feel it, it's clearly extremely strong!"

"Could it be that this fellow has learned a few types of saint-tier cultivation arts?"

The students were shocked and couldn't turn their gazes away. As for the great teachers, they were filled with envy. Logic told them that by right, Sun Mo should only know a single saint-tier cultivation art.

After all, saint-tier cultivation arts were too rare and valuable. If one could learn just one saint-tier art in their lifetimes, they must have accumulated good fortune for several lifetimes. Yet, even casual moves from Sun Mo seemed to originate from a variety of saint-tier cultivation arts.

Naturally, some high-ranking great teachers with good judgment and much experience also noticed that Sun Mo's transition in between cultivation arts was done extremely smoothly.

Logically speaking, that shouldn't be the case.

Without tens of years of hard practice, no one could achieve this. And, how old was Sun Mo merely? Even if he started training in his mother's womb, he shouldn't be able to reach such a stage.

"A combat genius!"

Duanmu Li sighed ruefully.

"Hehe!"

Mei Ziyu silently mused. (You have finally discovered it? This young man is a genius that comprehended the Battlegod Catalog. In Jinling, he is known as the new Battle God!)

"Are your capabilities only this much? Can you use your ultimate move or not?"

Sun Mo urged.

Xiao Di's attacking prowess couldn't make him feel pressured. This meant that it had no way to give Sun Mo the sensation of death due to Xiao Di's attacks not being threatening enough.

"Ridiculous."

Xiao Di bit his teeth and circulated his spirit qi before unleashing his ultimate skill.

Evil Destruction!

BOOM!

As Xiao Di punched out, a watermelon-sized spirit qi sphere rapidly shot toward Sun Mo.

Bzz~

A Buddha statue appeared before Sun Mo. Its palms were like smacking a fly and blasted toward the spirit qi sphere.

Boom!

The spirit qi sphere exploded, and the powerful waves of impact smashed into the buddha statue, causing it to shatter and become motes of light.

Wow!

The audience exclaimed in awe.

The moves used by the two of them were all so exquisite.

"Interesting!"

Sun Mo felt a little regret. Earlier, he should have used the Myriad Manifestations Spirit Wave Art to see if it was strong enough to block Xiao Di's Evil Destruction.

Xiao Di's countenance also grew somewhat unsightly.

He had unleashed his ultimate attack, but Sun Mo could still handle it easily. Moreover, it seemed as though Sun Mo hadn't used his full strength yet.

One must know that Xiao Di had been prepared to face the Wielding Sword Drinking Horse and other sword moves that Sun Mo had used when he fought against others. Xiao Di thought about how he should respond and planned out all contingencies. But when he was the one fighting, Sun Mo didn't even use the sword moves.

"How can I still fight?"

Xiao Di felt that he might screw up today.

"Don't be discouraged. Come on, use another one of your ultimate attacks."

Sun Mo saw Xiao Di's will wavering through Divine Sight, and he hurriedly encouraged him. Xiao Di was such a good sparring partner. Sun Mo didn't want the fight to end so quickly.

"Absolutely disgraceful!"

Xiao Di was infuriated. (What do you treat me as?)

Burial of Nine Suns!

Demonic God Possession!

Xiao Di unleashed his ultimate attacks one by one, blasting them at Sun Mo. At the end, even those moves that he hadn't grasped fully were unleashed.

A bright wheel hung suspended above his head. His entire person emitted red-colored spirit qi and seemed to have enlarged by a size.

The audience was all mesmerized as they watched.

Such ultimate attacks were truly gorgeous.

But why couldn't they kill Sun Mo?

After three minutes of frenziedly attacking, Xiao Di was panting heavily. He had overdrafted his spirit qi and now, his qi circulation was not smooth at all. Hence, he couldn't help but adjust his breathing.

"Very good. My turn now."

With a flash, Sun Mo appeared directly in front of Xiao Di. His wooden blade was pulled out again and pierced toward Xiao Di's throat.

Dotting Crimson Lip!

Crows Crying at Night

Colors of Autumn!

Sun Mo executed the Wind King Divine Steps, which made his movements ethereal and hard to track. He unceasingly used the moves from Immemorial Vairocana.

Pak, pak, pak!

The wooden blade started to strike Xiao Di, and every strike would generate a golden page on Xiao Di's head.

"Boss, quickly counterattack!"

The little brothers were anxious. Why did they suddenly feel like their boss was suppressed?

"Shut up!"

Xiao Di roared. (Do you guys think I don't want to? The movement art of this fellow is too powerful, and I basically cannot track him, alright?!)

Duanmu Li was shocked. He couldn't help but ask, "How many saint-tier cultivation arts does Teacher Sun know exactly?"

Mei Ziyu smiled but didn't reply.

The audience was already stunned from watching. They were called barbarians not only because their personalities were coarse, brutish, bold, and unconstrained, but their level of civilization wasn't high and their ability to appreciate things was very low as well.

Unlike people from the Central Plains who would listen to a poem or some music to soothe their emotions, getting in the mood and exchanging words to understand their 'partners' before doing the deed, barbarians would directly tear the clothes off their women and do the deed immediately.

But now, they felt that Sun Mo's attacks were gorgeous and magnificent. It was a pleasure to watch him.

Hence, a thought involuntarily rose in their minds.

"Damn!"

Xiao Di was badly angered. He couldn't see any way to defeat Sun Mo. Hence, he was preparing to use a battle strategy that could heavily injure both parties. It was a pity that Sun Mo wouldn't let things go according to his wish.

While his main body was occupying Xiao Di's attention, a Universe Formless Clone suddenly appeared at Xiao Di's side.

"What?"

Xiao Di was badly shocked. He didn't expect Sun Mo to still have a trump card at this moment. After that, his next thought was that it was over for him.

As expected…

The wooden blade rapidly moved closer to him in his vision. After that, it smashed into his head with a bang.

Xiao Di's sturdy and muscular body of over 200 jin was lifted from the air and started spinning like a top. After that, he fell onto the ground with a thud.

"Do you still want to continue fighting?"

Sun Mo asked.

One couldn't help but admit that Xiao Di's ability to withstand a beating was truly very strong. Sun Mo had struck his head with the wooden blade, but he still didn't faint.

Xiao Di forcefully gritted his teeth and then clasped his fists.

"I'm the weaker one. I've lost."

Xiao Di lowered his head. "From now onward, wherever Teacher Sun appears at, I, Xiao Di, will immediately take a detour to express my respect."

Xiao Di might be from the hawk faction, but he was also a great teacher and could judge the situation clearly.

He understood that if Sun Mo had used a little bit more strength, his brain juice would have sprayed all over the ground. After all, this was a life-and-death battle where there was no need to spare your opponents.

But Sun Mo had shown mercy.

"Just from your words, it's worth me showing mercy earlier."

Sun Mo smiled. "Actually, I understand the thoughts of you guys as to why you view outsiders with hostilities. However, driving enemies away to proclaim yourself the strongest is the wrong concept. A true expert doesn't fear competition. They will learn from the good points of their enemies and transform their insights into nutrients for their own growth. If I looked down on you people, I wouldn't have come and sought employment here."

Sun Mo looked at Xiao Di. "To me, this isn't just an internship, but it's also a chance for me to learn."

These were indeed Sun Mo's true thoughts. This was why Priceless Advice activated.

Xiao Di, who managed to stand up after a struggle, was stunned for a moment. He pondered over Sun Mo's words. After that, he suddenly dipped into a bow toward Sun Mo.
