Chapter 91 Awarding of Medals
in the afternoon,
In the new recruit training camp of the Night Watchmen in Cangnan City, the ground, which had been bombarded by artillery shells, was now completely renewed, as if nothing had happened.
Yuan Gang gathered all the new recruits in the training camp on the parade ground.
"I've gathered you all here today for one thing only: to award you medals!"
The new recruits all turned their attention to Wang Teng. They didn't know anything else, but they had all witnessed the missile interception that day. Therefore, they all had some guesses about the awarding of medals.
"Considering that some of you may not be clear on how the Night's Watch's merits are divided, I'll give you a brief introduction here... Our Night's Watch's merits differ from those of the regular army; there are four types, ranked from easiest to hardest to obtain: 'Spark' Medal, 'Starlight' Medal, 'Starry Night' Medal, and 'Sea of Stars' Medal."
“The ‘Spark’ Medal is one in a hundred; the ‘Starlight’ Medal is much harder to obtain, usually acquired by defeating extremely high-risk mystics; the ‘Starry Sky’ Medal is even rarer; as for the ‘Sea of Stars’ Medal…”
Yuan Gang hesitated for a moment: "To be honest, even I don't know the evaluation criteria. The last person to be awarded the 'Star Sea' medal was Wang Mian. Five years ago, Wang Mian directly activated his own divine ruins and led a team to stop the Yamata no Orochi of the God Sequence 040, saving millions of people!"
At this point, Yuan Gang looked at Wang Teng with a somewhat doubtful expression.
"Alright, the awarding of medals shall now begin. Lin Qiye, Baili Tuming, Cao Yuan, and Shen Qingzhu, by using themselves as bait to attract the attention of the believers of the Ancient God Church, and by playing a vital role in the battle against the Ancient God Church, are hereby awarded the 'Spark' Medal!"
Upon hearing that the four had received medals, the newcomers quickly applauded!
"Wow, that's impressive. An intern, still in training, and already earned the 'Spark' medal. Truly, the gap between people is bigger than the gap between people and dogs!"
"Heh, you can't handle this? Don't forget, there's also Wang Teng who single-handedly blocked five nuclear bombs and saved our entire battalion."
"Heh, I'm comparing myself to a human, but is Wang Teng even human? No, he's a god!!!"
Yuan Gang hung the medals around the necks of the four men, then continued,
"but……"
Baili Pangpang and Cao Yuan coughed frantically in hushed tones, their hands clasped together in front of their chests, their faces filled with pleading.
However, Yuan Gang ignored him and continued, "Given that Baili Tuming, Cao Yuan, and Shen Qingzhu violated the training camp rules during their four-day break, they will run 30 laps outside after the meeting to show their respect."
When Yuan Gang only mentioned that the three of them had violated the rules, without saying that they had gone to a love hotel together and that there was a men's party at the entrance, Baili Pangpang and the other two didn't care about Yuan Gang's punishment and looked at him with gratitude.
Yuan Gang continued, "Alright, next we will award the 'Starry Sea' Medal..."
These words caused an uproar among the crowd. Everyone looked at Wang Teng with some surprise and uncertainty. In everyone's mind, Wang Teng had only intercepted a missile, which was at most a star. At most, a star would be the limit.
So now, why is the instructor saying he wants to award Wang Teng the "Starry Sea" Medal?
Everyone below started talking about it, and Yuan Gang also remembered Ye Fan's reply to him during the phone call he made.
"I can't go into the details, but you just need to know that he brought a dead city back to life and also stopped the attack of two evil gods. This achievement deserves the gratitude of the entire Great Xia Dynasty. Our Great Xia has produced a dragon!!!"
Yuan Gang glanced at the intelligence report in his hand and continued, "Wang Teng intercepted five missiles and rescued the wounded personnel at the missile launch base. In the subsequent battle, he killed the Ancient God Church [Snake Woman] and intercepted an evil god's attack on Cangnan, holding out until the arrival of the human ceiling. Therefore, he is awarded the 'Starry Sea' Medal."
That's right, traveling back ten years to destroy Gaia and Shiva is too shocking to be told to outsiders.
However, Wang Teng's contribution this time was too great, and the officials themselves wouldn't feel comfortable not to commend him. Therefore, the officials discussed it and decided to launch an attack on Cangnan by an evil god. Although Wang Teng intercepted and eliminated an evil god from ten years ago, saying so now wouldn't be wrong!
Sure enough, upon hearing that Wang Teng could now intercept gods, everyone looked at him with admiration!
clap clap clap!
Before Wang Teng even stepped onto the stage, thunderous applause erupted from the audience.
When the medal was pinned around Wang Teng's neck, Yuan Gang nodded and said to Wang Teng, "Wang Teng, to receive the 'Starry Sea' medal while still an intern, you're truly gifted. Come on, say a few words to encourage everyone!"
Wang Teng took the microphone, waved his right hand, and said, "Yeah, I'm very excited and happy. What should I say? Well, just say whatever comes to mind. I, Wang Teng, have the aura of an emperor! Wang Teng, you're awesome!!!"
Upon hearing this, everyone seemed to freeze in place for thirty seconds, staring intently at Wang Teng on the stage.
On the stage, Wang Teng no longer felt the shame of shouting out the concept technique for the first time; instead, he thoroughly enjoyed it. With the attention of hundreds of people on the playground, Wang Teng could feel that the white light emanating from their bodies would accelerate his cultivation speed over the next seven days.
The more people there are, the more hyped I get! Cleave it open, cleave the sky open!!!
Thirty seconds later, Yuan Gang looked at Wang Teng with a dark face: "Wang Teng, I asked you to encourage everyone."
Wang Teng picked up the microphone and shouted loudly to the crowd below, "Comrades, am I awesome?"
"Awesome!!!"
"Don't you think I'm awesome?"
"That's awesome!!!"
At that moment, Lin Qiye shouted from the crowd with all his might, "No way! Who in their right mind would watch that stuff?!"
Upon hearing this, the audience was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter.
Yuan Gang, his face dark, snatched the microphone: "Alright, the medal awarding ceremony is over. Now everyone go to the track and run fifteen laps to warm up! Wang Teng and Lin Qiye, add another ten laps to warm up properly!"
The new recruits didn't throw a tantrum; they simply followed Wang Teng outside.
After everyone started running as punishment, Yuan Gang smiled and said, "You little rascal, you've got some skills. With a witty remark, you've shortened the distance between comrades you haven't seen for half a year."
At this moment, Wang Teng, who was quite skilled, was arguing with Lin Qiye on the track.
"Little Lin, don't think I don't know you're watching it, even though you say you don't!"
Shen Qingzhu, who was about to catch up with the two, stumbled and fell behind again when she heard Wang Teng's explosive topic.
