Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 194: Chapter 136: First-Class Merit? Honorary Major Su Ping!_3

Even this individual was momentarily taken aback but quickly composed himself, offering a faint smile without saying anything.

Only after all five had arrived did this individual’s voice ring out again:

”General Zhao, please present the awards to the outstanding Breeders who have cooperated with the Legion!”

Zhao Deguang stood up and approached them.

However, this time, he started with the last Breeder, a man named Li Senlin!

”Tree Ape Group Breeder Li Senlin, for cultivating the Biyun Baboon, which enabled the Tree Ape Group’s elite team to achieve the commendable fifth-place result. Therefore, the Legion awards a Third-Class Merit Medal and an exchange quota of 5,000 Legion Battle Merit Points! Furthermore, you may cooperate with the Legion in the future and will have priority in recommending suitable members to join the Legion!”

The rewards were already quite good, and there was even a Third-Class Merit Medal! However, it was apparent that the Breeder named Li Senlin was still slightly disappointed.

”Snow Wolf Group Breeder Rong Qiu, for cultivating the Cold Water Wolf, which enabled the Snow Wolf Group’s elite team to secure the commendable fourth-place result. Therefore, the Legion awards a Third-Class Merit Medal and an exchange quota of 10,000 Legion Battle Merit Points! Furthermore, you may cooperate with the Legion in the future and will have priority in recommending suitable members to join the Legion!”

Zhao Deguang handed the Third-Class Merit Medal to Rong Qiu, saying with a smile, ”Congratulations, Miss Rong Qiu.”

Rong Qiu’s expression remained remarkably calm; she merely nodded.

Su Ping, looking on from the side, was somewhat surprised.

This Breeder from Beiyuan Province knew people from the Legion?

But Su Ping couldn’t be bothered to dwell on it.

”Shadow Leopard Group Breeder Bai Ying, the Legion awards a Third-Class Merit Medal and an exchange quota of 8,000 Legion Battle Merit Points! Additionally, after deliberation by the Legion, you are awarded the honorary rank of Lieutenant in the Legion! You will enjoy all the benefits of an officer of that rank and may join the Legion at any time. Upon joining, your honorary rank can be promoted by one level!”

Instantly, as Zhao Deguang spoke, countless gazes filled with envy and admiration turned towards the man in his thirties named Bai Ying.

Ultimately, in this Legion competition, what mattered most to them as Breeders was this honorary military rank!

This was the primary reason all the Breeders had come.

Unfortunately, it seemed only Breeders who made it into the top three were eligible.

To enjoy all the Legion’s benefits without needing to train or undertake missions—who could refuse such a fantastic deal of reaping rewards without the work?

Not to mention, if they wished, they could join the Legion at any time, and their military rank could continue to rise.

Of course, most people probably wouldn’t choose to join directly; reaping benefits without the associated duties was the dream.

For a Senior Breeder like Bai Ying, joining the Legion merely as a Captain wouldn’t be appealing anyway.

Without giving the others too much time for envy or resentment, Zhao Deguang then approached Mo Tu.

”Black Tiger Group Breeder Mo Tu, the Legion awards a Second-Class Merit Medal and an exchange quota of 8,000 Legion Battle Merit Points! Additionally, after deliberation by the Legion, you are awarded the honorary rank of Captain in the Legion! You will enjoy all the benefits of an officer of that rank and may join the Legion at any time. Upon joining, your honorary rank can be promoted by one level!”

”Thank you, General Zhao!”

Mo Tu was a man in his sixties, but he showed no signs of old age, clearly possessing considerable Beast Tamer strength. Moreover, he seemed to be acquainted with this General Zhao, lacking the usual reserve of ordinary people.

Finally, Zhao Deguang’s steps slowly brought him before Su Ping.

Even Su Ping instinctively held his breath.

It was finally his turn.

Everyone’s gaze followed, settling on Su Ping.

They also wanted to know what kind of reward Su Ping, such a young Breeder and the champion of this first Legion Grand Tournament, would receive from the Legion.

A First-Class Merit seemed unlikely; the criteria were incredibly demanding.
