Manager and his colleagues rushed over to clean up the mess and apologized to her in a humble and sincere manner.

"It's okay, it's not your fault."

Jia Xitong has always been reasonable.

Seeing her like this, the manager breathed a sigh of relief.

"Also... could you please not tell Peak Master Yan about this trivial matter?"

After saying this, Jia Xitong tilted her head and looked at him, "Manager, what did you just say?"

Normally, she wouldn't tell Shang Yanting about something she could handle herself, but the fact that she brought it up separately made her words rather intriguing.

"Why can't I tell Yan Qing? I've been bullied, I'm so pitiful, can't I even go home and complain?"

It's good that kindergartens allow children to go home and complain to adults.

You're not pitiful at all, yet you still give Pu Yun two big slaps.

While thinking this to himself, Si Li still had to reassure the other person verbally, "Well... of course we know, Teacher Tong, don't worry. Pu Yun isn't a very good person, and we understand your grievances. It's like this, we came here mainly for another important matter. There's a top-tier academy talisman cultivation exchange meeting next month, and we hope you can attend."

Not everyone can go; only one spot is available through a rigorous selection process. We hope you can focus on preparing and waiting for this opportunity.

Talisman Cultivation Exchange Meeting.

The most skilled talisman practitioners are discussing this here.

If you want someone to stop reporting you, how can you not ask them for hush money?

The manager is indeed a shrewd person; he gave Jia Xitong a benefit that she couldn't refuse.

"Alright."

Jia Xitong seemed to agree reluctantly, but she was secretly overjoyed.

My dear host is truly a treasure; I've earned so many benefits.

"By the way, Mr. Tong, your class has become like this. Do you need us to make some adjustments?"

The manager subtly mentioned her current situation.

Firstly, apart from her, no one else had so few students in their classes;

Secondly, Xi Tong does have some ability. We've already lost a highly talented array master, and it would be a waste of resources to have her teach only five disciples.

"It needs to be adjusted."

Jia Xitong nodded. "I only have five students now, so I don't need such a big classroom. Could you please help me find a classroom of a suitable size with good lighting? Thank you."

Manager: "...Okay."

He glanced at the five students hiding in the corner, sighing that these fools were truly blessed, and at the same time extinguished their hopes, "From now on, you should study diligently under Teacher Tong and not transfer to other teachers at will."

Upon hearing this, Jia Xitong turned around and looked at the five immature, academically challenged kids who had just boasted that they would be her second parents, demanded top grades from her, asked her to do their homework, and wanted her to be their maids...

A glint of light flashed in his eyes.

"From now on, the five of you will be my first disciples, and I will hold you to the highest standards."

Only a chuunibyou (delusional) underachiever like her can demonstrate her superb teaching skills.

She wanted to show these lazy disciples what 'hellish teaching' really meant.

What does it mean to say, "Choose the right teacher, and even a pig can fly"?

##

New classroom

Does this mean that teachers arrive earlier than students?

Jia Xitong coughed twice as she looked at the five people who had come together below. "Right now, there are only a few of you left in our class. Please stand up and introduce yourselves."

Actually, they all knew each other; the introductions were simply to let Jia Xitong get to know them.

If it were a day ago, they would have been unwilling, after all, they were unconventional cultivators who valued freedom.

But Mr. Tong likes obedient students.

Knowing they were outmatched in strength and understanding the true nature of a powerful figure, they decided to be pragmatic and act accordingly.

"Hello teacher, my name is Gou You."

The tallest student bowed to her.

"Hello teacher, my name is Zhang Shen," the second-highest student chimed in.

"My name is Su Dagang." (Third highest)

"Liu Tianhua." He was a little short and had a mole on his lip.

"Gao Xiang." This was a slightly chubby little guy.

The five of them worked together reasonably well, and if it weren't for yesterday's "rebirth parents incident," Jia Xitong would still like them.

"Um."

Jia Xitong nodded. "Everyone, stand up."

Five people: ...

Teacher Tong's classes used to be very conventional, just reading from the textbook. But now that only a few of them are left, and Teacher Tong's competitive spirit has been ignited, he's given them some real substance.

A bronze incense burner with incense smoke, a loud clattering sound as one worships the gods.

The five people, who were originally standing, are now kneeling.

Jia Xitong stood in front with a serious expression and told them the highest principle of cultivation: "The most important thing in cultivating talismans is to establish a good relationship with Hu Zhongping."

Hu Zhongping?

Who is it?

Upon hearing this name, the five people looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Hu Zhongping is the God of Talismans, the patriarch."

The name of the God of Talismans is quite obscure, and very few people know it.

She set out the statue of the God of Talismans, saying, "Worship."

Today, the first lesson I'm going to give you is titled: "A good relationship with the divine is the first step towards success in spiritual practice."

The five disciples were skeptical...

On the other side

The classroom of Master Li was unusually crowded. The reason was simple: all the original disciples of Jia Xitong had transferred to his class.

Because he had too many disciples and was eager to achieve results, he doubled the number of classes from nine per month. Even though he wasn't supposed to be lecturing today, he still gathered his disciples together.

Unfortunately, these disciples may be physically present, but their hearts may not be with them.
