In large $N_c$ limit of partially quenched QCD, we calculate $Δm$, the chiral one-loop correction to baryon masses. We find that leading order contribution to $Δm$ is independent of number of ghost quarks introduced. For finite $N_c$, chiral correction $Δm$ does satisfy the Bernard--Golterman's third theorem and has no infared quenching singularity except for fully quenched limit. At large $N_c$ limit, however, we show that the third theorem is bypassed and nontrivial quenched chiral corrections do arise. In unquenched limit, we also show that standard chiral perturbation theory results are reproduced in which $η'$ loop contributions are explicitly taken into account.Latex, 19 pages, 2 figures, v2: two typos corrected, v3: two subsections and minor corrections are addedHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyHigh Energy Physics - Latticetext
