Absolute Great Teacher

Chapter 102: Spirit Rune Grandmaster

“Huh?”

The shop owner, who was in his forties and was balding, had two thoughts flashing past his mind. Did this teacher really have no money? Or was he thinking of bargaining for a better price by taking a step back?

By the looks of his age, he should be in his twenties and probably hadn’t learned of such bargaining skills that experienced people like himself knew.

The shop owner’s gaze landed on Sun Mo’s feet. If Sun Mo was trying to haggle for the price, then he would slow down, waiting for the shop owner to take the initiative to call him back and offer a lower price.

But he didn’t!

“So he is really poor!”

The shop owner felt upset, but he still gave chase. His shop wasn’t an antique shop where he would be able to provide for his living expenses for a year by just selling a single item.

These tools for spirit runes brought in low profits, and it was hard-earned money.

“This teacher, why don’t you take a look at other things? I dare say that there aren’t more than three shops on this street who sell spirit rune tools that are better than mine.”

The shop owner smiled.

“I thought that you’d say you’re the best!” Sun Mo teased.

“You’re a teacher and will definitely browse other shops as well. If I were to boast, wouldn’t I be exposed?”

Looking down on others to raise his own stance was something that the slightly balded shop owner didn’t dare to do. Moreover, this customer was a teacher.

If he was a teacher, he would have students. If a teacher were to use the tools from his shop, then he’d be a walking advertisement.

.....
“You’re a teacher. I can give you a 20% discount. If you spend over 1,000 taels, then I’ll give you a 30% discount!”

The shop owner grinned. He had a good brain for business.

“I want some cheap goods!”

Sun Mo didn’t feel embarrassed. He only needed to complete 1,000 Spirit- Gathering Runes, and there weren’t any requirements for the ink and rune paper used!

Only a fool would spend a huge amount of money to buy high-quality stuff!

“You must be using them for practice, right? Then these few spirit brushes will do. They aren’t expensive either, only costing 100 taels at most.”

The shop owner took out five brushes and handed them to Sun Mo.

Almost all of them were made from bamboo.

The shop owner had a well-trained judgment over the years and could tell that Sun Mo liked spirit brushes with this kind of style and material.

Sun Mo took them and tried holding them.

The shop owner took out a rune paper, placing it on the table. He then opened a bottle of ink that had been used before. He told Sun Mo, “Teacher, you can try drawing a spirit rune!”

Sun Mo didn’t stand on ceremony. He stood next to the table, picked up a spirit brush that had the best grip, dipped it with some ink, and then channeled in spirit qi into the brush. He then drew the first stroke on the rune paper.

A grandmaster-grade Spirit-Gathering Rune Depiction Technique caused the spirit rune’s complicated diagram to seem as if it was engraved in his mind. It had become instinctive.

Sun Mo didn’t need to give it much thought and was able to draw it out with the most perfect arch.

“Beautiful!”
