Asuma, who was protected by Mu Yue's water escape, suddenly felt that he was a worthless person before. He took his anger out on Mu Yue because of his dissatisfaction with the third generation and had a bad attitude.
As a teacher, Mu Yue was very responsible. Even though he had been uncooperative and resisted Mu Yue's training, Mu Yue was very clever in making him complete the required training.
Although the process is a bit infuriating, it is also for his own good. I want him to complete the training.
"Shisui, you go back first." Looking at the depressed Asuma, Mu Yue knew it was his turn.
Shisui nodded, said nothing more, and turned back to continue practicing.
Mu Yue walked in front of Asuma, brushed the dust off his body, and helped him tidy up his messy clothes.
Finally, Mu Yue squatted on the ground, keeping about the same height as Asma, and looked into Asma's eyes.
The two looked at each other, and Asuma quickly lowered his head before whispering, "Teacher, I'm sorry."
"Tell me how you have let me down?" Mu Yue asked with a smile.
"I shouldn't vent my anger towards other people on you. I shouldn't have always gone against you and refused to cooperate with you." Asuma didn't dare to look at Mu Yue.
"You're not sorry to me, you're sorry to yourself." Mu Yue said as his expression gradually became serious.
Mu Yue asked:
"Does it matter to me if you don't train?"
Without waiting for Asuma to answer, Mu Yue continued,
"It doesn't matter. Even if you don't train, I will keep wasting time with you and I will still get paid two thousand taels an hour."
"But you are different. If you train one hour less, your one hour is gone and you gain nothing."
For such rebellious teenagers, you have to make them feel that everything you do is good for them, that you are on their side, and that they are the ones making mistakes.
"I..." Asuma hesitated to speak. The more Mu Yue spoke, the more regretful he felt, and the more he felt like a worthless person.
The more annoyed I was with Mu Yue's behavior before, the more favorable I felt towards her at this moment.
It is no exaggeration to say that Asuma felt that Mu Yue, the teacher who had only taught him for a few days, was much better than his father, the Hokage.
Although he secretly disobeyed Mu Yue's training requirements, Mu Yue did not scold him. Instead, she praised him for his strong limbs.
If it was Sarutobi Hiruzen who came, he would probably be so angry that he would puff his beard and glare and then scold him.
Before starting to preach, Mu Yue helped him brush off the dust on his body and tidied his clothes, and was even considerate enough to look him in the eye.
Thinking of this, Asuma's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Why can a tutor who has only known him for a few days praise him generously, but when he returns home excitedly after getting the first place, he never gets any praise from his parents?
Is it possible that Asma's first place is less valuable than others' first place?
Asuma felt more and more aggrieved the more he thought about it, and couldn't help but recall that he was defeated by a student who had just entered the ninja school today.
Many emotions accumulated together and finally exploded.
Even though Asuma tried hard to control himself, tears still flowed down in the end. He turned his head away, not wanting Mu Yue to see them.
But how could this be hidden from Mu Yue, who had been keeping an eye on Asuma.
Mu Yue did not act immediately, but waited for a while. After Asma had vented some of his emotions through crying, he stood up, patted Asma's shoulder, and took out a square handkerchief and handed it to Asma.
"Teacher Hanyu...you are so kind." Asuma took the handkerchief, wiped his tears and said with a sob.
"Unlike my parents, they wouldn't be like this..."
"That's because you only remember the bad things they did to you and forget the good things they did to you. Think about it carefully, when you were a child, who was the one who patiently coaxed you to sleep, who taught you to walk and run step by step, who was the one who checked in the middle of the night to see if you were covered with the quilt, who was it..." Mu Yue said earnestly.
The third generation may be watching, so you can't just focus on improving your own favor, you also have to mediate the relationship between father and son.
Asuma was speechless. After Mu Yue said that, he did have similar memories in his mind.
"You can think about it carefully in your free time, but now you should prepare to start practicing. You haven't forgotten what you said before, right?" Mu Yue saw that Asuma looked conflicted, so she started talking about practicing.
"Of course I haven't forgotten. From now on, I will practice whatever you tell me to practice, Teacher Mu Yue." Asma said as he wiped his face with a towel.
Now, the image of Mu Yue in Asuma's mind has changed from a cunning and hateful adult to a perfect teacher who is truly kind to him.
"We will continue to practice chakra control this week and practice ninjutsu next week." Mu Yue briefly explained the training schedule.
He definitely wouldn't teach Asuma the same way he taught Shisui and the others.
First, Asuma's identity is sensitive. The Third Generation will either keep an eye on him himself or send someone to keep an eye on him, which may cause him to expose his strength. Mu Yue does not want to show strength that exceeds that of a Chunin for the time being.
The second reason is very realistic. Asma is just a student, not a disciple, and it is not worth investing too much energy in him.
As Mu Yue expected, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was in the Hokage Building, was using the telescope technique to observe how Mu Yue taught Asuma.
"Hanyu is indeed very good when it comes to teaching children." Seeing Asuma's change from resistance at the beginning to respect in the end, Sarutobi Hiruzen affirmed Mu Yue's ability as a teacher.
He was not too surprised that Mu Yue was able to call upon Shishui.
Because Shisui is a student in Mu Yue's class, and even students from other classes like Mu Yue so much, there is no reason why students from Mu Yue's own class would not like her.
"But he has such strength right after entering school. His talent is even better than Kagami." Sarutobi Hiruzen thought of his former teammate Uchiha Kagami.
That was an Uchiha who had the Will of Fire and was recognized by the Second Generation.
"It seems I need to pay more attention to it." Sarutobi Hiruzen thought as he picked up his pipe and took a puff.
Shisui is the grandson of Uchiha Kagami and is extremely talented. Sarutobi Hiruzen knew of his existence before.
He hoped that Shisui could become an Uchiha like Uchiha Kagami.
Seeing Asuma begin to practice, Sarutobi Hiruzen canceled the telescope jutsu and began to deal with official business.
It was not until the evening that Sarutobi Hiruzen used the telescope technique to inspect Konoha, and then left the Hokage Building to go home for dinner.
At the dinner table, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked with a smile:
"Asuma, are you satisfied with your tutor? This is the teacher I carefully selected for you."
Asuma stopped eating and began to recall what happened today.
Before today, Asuma would have replied that Mu Yue was a bad teacher who deceived his students.
"Teacher Hanyu is very good, his teaching level is much better than yours." Asuma praised Mu Yue while not forgetting to step on Sandai.
Although he was enlightened by Mu Yue, his resentment towards the third generation would not be eliminated in a short time.
"What do you know, little kid? I was the one who taught all the Three Ninjas." Sarutobi Hiruzen said with puffed out his beard and glared when he was questioned.
"It's obvious that Aunt Tsunade and the others have extraordinary talents themselves," Asuma retorted that while the Sannin were famous, they all made their own paths.
"Sometimes, it's a sign of wisdom for a person to admit his or her own shortcomings." Asuma said, imitating Mu Yue's tone.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was left speechless by his own good son. If he admitted it, he was not as good as Mu Yue, and if he didn't admit it, he was unwise, right?
Seeing his old father hesitant to speak, Asma was in a good mood and even had more energy to eat.
