Chapter 19 (1/2)
When the host completed the missions, the system would give out treasure chests according to the mission’s difficulty. From low to high, the grades were black-iron, bronze, silver, gold, and diamond treasure chest.
When opening a treasure chest, the host would have a chance to gain a reward. The higher the grade of the treasure chest, the better the rewards would be.
Other than this, there was another type of treasure chest named lucky treasure chest. This was what the host could get every midnight when the timer refreshed. This same type of treasure chest was also sold in the system shopping store for 10 favorable impression points each.
Although the chances of getting good items were very low, this treasure chest was like the last life-saving straw in the hand of a drowning person. Although they knew it was useless, the presence of hope would still bring about great comfort to their hearts.
“System, how many favorable impression points do I have now?” Sun Mo silently asked.
“170,” the system answered in a concise and comprehensive manner.
“I’ll buy 10 lucky treasure chests.”
Actually, Sun Mo knew the answer. His question was to test the system, but sadly, there were no loopholes he could take advantage of.
The system’s actions were extremely clean, not giving Sun Mo any chance to regret his words.
“Why do I still have to open the storage cabinet? Just bring them all out, I want to open them.”
After Sun Mo spoke, a treasure chest before his eyes. He didn’t do anything superstitious like praying for good luck or washing hands to wash away bad luck. He simply mumbled the word ‘open’ silently.
The chest opened; there was nothing in it. There wasn’t even a consolation note that stated ‘Please try again the next time!’
Sun Mo continued.
He opened another chest again but didn’t receive anything. It was so for all the ten chests.
“…”
Sun Mo felt like cursing the system’s mother. He really wanted to curse out loud. 100 favorable impression points for ten lucky treasure chests, yet he didn’t receive anything at all.
“You are an extremely unlucky person, why are you trying to gamble on your luck? Does your family own a mine? Do you think it’s so easy to gain favorable impression points?” Sun Mo silently mumbled to himself.
Sun Mo slapped his left hand.
Pak!
“Ah?”
Li Ziqi called out, feeling a little afraid. However, when Teacher Sun was serious, he also looked quite handsome.
“System, give me another sev…forget it!”
As Sun Mo spoke halfway, he thought about the lucky treasure chests he would get every midnight. During these few days, he hadn’t been opening them, so he did a quick check and realized that he had five. 2
“Open them all!”
Sun Mo was too lazy to open them one by one.
Swish, swish, swish~
A bright light flashed. All of a sudden, a book emitting a dense golden light flew out from one of the lucky treasure chests and floated before Sun Mo.
“Congratulations, you obtained the grandmaster-level ‘Muscleforge Technique’. This was one of the four branch techniques of the ancient massage technique.
“Using the muscleforge technique on a target can increase the target’s cell vitality, enhance the strength of the target’s muscle, rejuvenate muscle damage, increase strength, and upgrade spirit qi storage.”
“You are determined to make me get on the path of a masseur, right?!” 1
Sun Mo was speechless. The things he wanted most were peak-grade medicine, which could be used to directly upgrade one’s combat strength. However, the muscleforge technique wasn’t bad. It was still better compared to some random stuff.
“Qi Shengjia, come back here!” Sun Mo spoke.
Qi Shengjia turned, having a look of despair. “Teacher Sun, I won’t be able to win.”
Sun Mo’s expression was ice-cold as he walked in front of Qi Shengjia. He lifted his hand and slapped his face.
Pak!
The clear sound of a slap rang out, causing a female teacher who was walking by to jump in shock. She couldn’t help but turn her gaze in this direction.
“Say that again!” Sun Mo berated.
Qi Shengjia felt that there was nothing sadder than this. What could the pain of this slap count for? “Peng Wanli’s ranking is #106…”
Pak!
Sun Mo’s slap interrupted Qi Shengjia’s words.
“Say that again!”
“Peng Wanli’s ranking…”
Pak!
Sun Mo launched another slap.
“Say that again!”
“Peng Wan…”
Pak!
This time, even before Qi Shengjia finished saying Peng Wanli’s name, all his latter words were smacked back into his throat by the slap.
Li Ziqi watched on as her heart trembled.
“Teacher…”
Qi Shengjia didn’t understand why he was slapped.
“You haven’t even gotten on the stage, how do you know you will lose for sure?”
Sun Mo was very angry. From the time he had taught students until now, he had never hit anyone before. But this Qi Shengjia was too soft and weak. “As a man, you can lose. But you cannot choose to flee even before the battle. Do you know that you look like a pathetic dog?” 8
The female teacher involuntarily nodded when she heard this. Her beautiful eyes turned toward Sun Mo as she surveyed him.
“Teacher Sun, even if he went up to the stage, he won’t be able to win. And if he is injured, he still needs to spend money on treatment after that,” Zhou Xu spoke in support of Qi Shengjia.
“Shut up!”
Sun Mo turned and shot a ruthless glare over. “When I’m teaching someone a lesson, how are you qualified to interrupt?” 4
