Chapter 858: Autumn Hunting Sacrificial Ceremony

“Dragon roars?”

Mei Ziyu shook her head. “I didn’t hear that.”

“Seems like this is a problem for me.”

Sun Mo sighed.

He was sure there were no problems with his body. Hence, it must be a summon from that ancient dragon. It was a pity the Dragon Subduing Palace was sealed, and even people from the upper echelons of the school weren’t permitted to enter.

Wouldn’t that mean he had wasted 200,000 favorable impression points?

Sun Mo was vexed. There was only half a month left before the examination ended.

After all the students set off, the teachers also began their journey.

The vast majority of young great teachers, especially those during their internship, would choose to walk on foot. As for those older ones who had made their names and had a high status, they either rode horses or were in a carriage.

Although sharing suffering with students was an excellent way to get close to them, Sun Mo didn’t need to do such a thing.

What he wanted was posturing.

It was just like a secondary saint. They didn’t need to walk on foot because with their value, they were no longer at such a level. They were people at the level of solving the difficult problems concerning this world.

Every time they solved a high difficulty question, their glory would be a little brighter.

“Teacher Sun, I will congratulate you in advance on obtaining the championship.”

Liu Zongyuan rode a horse over. After he saw Sun Mo, he smiled amiably and clasped his hands in congratulations.

“Teacher Liu is praising me too much.”

Sun Mo spoke in a modest manner, but he didn’t feel that he wasn’t worthy.

“Hehe, I will treat you to a drink after we return to the Central Plains!”

Liu Zongyuan then left.

During the second month, his performance wasn’t bad and he would pass for sure. As for getting a better result? He couldn’t be bothered to do so. Because no matter how good his results were, it was impossible for him to surpass Sun Mo.

Sigh!

Being in the same era as such a genius was both lucky and unlucky.

...

Winter on the plains was a scene of desolation as all the plants had withered. However, the students felt hot blood running through their veins and were preparing to shoot to fame after a single battle.

Their uplifting attitude also made it seem like huge suns would rise one after another on the grassy plains, making the plains be filled with vitality.

The sounds of galloping could be heard. Sun Mo stared at those running youths with admiration in his eyes.

The Autumn Hunting Sacrificial Ceremony was considered two major competitions for the students.

First, to see who could become the hunting king.

The meaning was implied in the name, to see whoever could hunt the most ferocious beasts.

The school had already given a map to the students. The number of points allocated for each type of ferocious beast was also clearly stated. In the end, the student who obtained the most points would be crowned as the hunting king.

The barbarians were people who believed in the philosophy that the weak were food for the strong. Students could snatch the prey from each other. As long as they didn’t kill the other student, they could use all sorts of methods they wanted to for seizing prey. They wouldn’t be punished even if they heavily injured the other students.

Naturally, for the sake of fairness, acts of seizing could only occur between students of the same year. If a high-year student targeted the low-year students, they would immediately be expelled once the matter was discovered and would also be punished severely.

However, a lifeform like a genius was something unimaginable by mortals. Hence, the school had ruled that low-year students could target high-year students.

But if that happened, the high-year students would be able to retaliate.

In any case, the Autumn Hunting Sacrificial Ceremony had been held for several hundreds of years, and the rules were already very detailed and perfect. These rules would surely enable the most outstanding hunting king to be born.

The second one was for the students to contend against each other for the title of the Dragon Subduing King.

With this title, it would be equivalent to becoming the champion in the entire Dragon Subduing Academy.

Students participating in this battle had to challenge other participants whose cultivation bases were within three levels of their own.

They would continue fighting until the last person standing. That final person would be the Dragon Subduing King.

Students could casually choose between the two competitions or even participate in both. But usually, no one would choose both as things would be too difficult.

Usually speaking, those with weaker strengths would choose the first option and fight for the position of ‘hunting king’.

Because this option had the element of luck in play, and there were no restrictions to the method you could use, allowing students to display their intelligence to the maximum.

Xianyu Wei precisely chose to participate in this.

As for the second option, it tested the strength of the students. They had to fight battles after battles, and there would be no such thing as luck.

One must know that students who could enter the last few rounds were all elites among elites.

Xiao Ri`nan chose the second option.

To great teachers, there were also tests.

During the period of the autumn hunt, students could casually ask questions and the great teachers had to reply. If they rejected and had no reasons to support their action, they would be given a black star.

If their answer was incorrect, they would also be given a black star.

When a teacher obtained seven black stars, they would be fired.

It was impossible for the relationship between students and teachers to always be harmonious. There were also students who hated teachers, and this was very normal. Hence, a small portion of students would prepare difficult questions to ask teachers they loathed during the autumn hunting period in hopes of them obtaining black stars.

Also, there were conflicts between great teachers. Things like a certain great teacher arranging their students to ask difficult questions to another great teacher had also happened before.

This method was somewhat contemptible, but the upper echelons of the Dragon Subduing Academy wouldn’t care about this because they also believed in the philosophy whereby the weak was food for the strong. From their point of view, regardless of what questions were asked, as long as you failed to answer, it meant that your standard wasn’t high enough, and it was only natural for you to be fired.

Since there were black stars, there would naturally be white stars as well.

Every time a great teacher could resolve a difficult question posed by the students, they would be able to obtain a white star. In the end, the great teacher who obtained the most white stars would gain the title of the Autumn Hunt Great Teacher.

This person would not only be able to obtain ample rewards prepared by the school, but they would also have the authority to raise a request to the school, and the school had to do their best to fulfill it.

“If you want to enter the Dragon Subduing Palace, you should obtain more white stars and make a request.”

Mei Ziyu suggested.

The title ‘Autumn Hunt Great Teacher’ had always been obtained by those old fellows. After all, their fame was greater and they were more knowledgeable and experienced. This was why there would always be many students rushing to ask them questions.

“I’ll just do my best!”

Sun Mo wanted to fight for it. After all, Jiang Ji didn’t even leave despite a deadly sickness for the sake of winning against him. In that case, out of respect, he would do his best too.

In the afternoon, Sun Mo rushed up a small hill and looked at the students passing by, while he was having his meal. He used Divine Sight to observe their stats.

As expected of the Nine Greats, there were so many students with extremely high potential values. Sun Mo really wanted to headhunt a few before he left.

“Sun Mo, for you!”

Mei Ziyu took a piece of vegetarian meatball and placed it into Sun Mo’s lunchbox.

This was something she had made personally.

For the sake of hearing the word ‘delicious’ from Sun Mo, she secretly practiced making it for a long time.

“Mn!”

Sun Mo placed the vegetarian meatball into his mouth and chewed twice. After that, he furrowed his brows.

Mei Ziyu who had been secretly observing Sun Mo felt her heart thumping. (Oh no, is it not nice to eat?)

“Those rascals!”

Sun Mo’s expression turned indignant because Wanyan Zhenghe and tens of his lackeys were riding horses galloping through the plains.

They didn’t seem to be participating in the Autumn Hunting Sacrificial Ceremony with such an attitude.

It was like they were touring the place instead!

Sun Mo grew unhappy. Wanyan Zhenghe was the little prince of the Jin Country and would inherit the king position in the future. He naturally didn’t need to participate in such a tempering exercise. However, he shouldn’t influence others.

It was like others were taking the examination and a second-generation nobility was laughing loudly at the side. The lack of civility was too much.

But before Sun Mo could go over, the little prince rode his horse and charged up the hill the moment he saw Sun Mo.
