Super-Rank Skills are something countless Beast Tamers dream of but can never attain.
"Remember, don’t tell anyone about this. If you’re going to announce it, do it at the Breeder Convention. Got it?"
Seeing Old Liu’s stern expression, Su Ping belatedly realized that what he had created seemed a bit more incredible than he had anticipated.
Liu Fuhai did not say anything more. Vice President Liu, who seemed to have been just making casual remarks, returned to his jovially encouraging demeanor, watching the final tally of scores on the screen.
The Military Strategist’s voice rang out after the last few stunned Beast Tamers were carried out, "The Legion Tournament has ended! The tournament is successfully completed, and rankings will be based on points!" The source of thɪs content is 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡~𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢~𝙣𝙚𝙩
Under the holy light emanating from the medical Pet Beasts—especially from the ’Holy Bamboo’ which had reached Monarch Level—all the Legion Beast Tamers who had fainted eventually regained consciousness, including Sun Xiao.
He looked around blankly, then seemed to recall something. Only after seeing that Er Zhuang, too, had recovered, did he breathe a sigh of relief.
However, Sun Xiao soon noticed a problem with Er Zhuang’s Level.
Er Zhuang was previously Commander Sixth Order, but after waking up this time, its Level had dropped to Commander Fifth Stage? A regression in Realm?
Sun Xiao thought back to the last scene again.
What exactly was that?
He didn’t know. He feared this question could only be answered by asking Su Ping, the Breeder, later.
However, the Legion’s final announcement would not cease just for his thoughts.
The Military Strategist’s voice rose again from above, "Next, we will proceed with the ranking and award ceremony. Teams and their commanders whose names are called, please come up to the stage to receive their awards!"
"First place, Forest Wolf Troop! Awarded a Group Second-Class Merit, and an Individual Second-Class Merit for each member! Each person is awarded 8,000 Battle Merit Points!"
There was no doubt; the first place in the tournament went undisputed. The performance of the Forest Wolf Troop and that mysterious Evolutionary Body had thoroughly conquered everyone. They had completely overpowered everyone else. If anyone other than the Forest Wolf Troop had taken first place, it would have been unbelievable.
And the reward had everyone green with envy.
Not only a group merit, but each member also receives an individual Second-Class Merit?
This was a bargaining chip for promotion. Perhaps soon, these individuals’ official ranks could climb yet another level. Besides, 8,000 Battle Merit Points was an unimaginably large amount.
"Second place, Black Tiger Group! Awarded a Group Third-Class Merit, and an Individual Third-Class Merit for each member! Each person is awarded 5,000 Battle Merit Points!"
Undoubtedly, the reward for second place was significantly lower.
"Third place, Shadow Leopard Group! Awarded a Group Third-Class Merit, and an Individual Third-Class Merit for each member! Each person is awarded 3,000 Battle Merit Points!"
In contrast, the difference in reward between third and second place wasn’t that large.
"Fourth place, Snow Wolf Group! Awarded an Individual Third-Class Merit for each member! Each person is awarded 1,500 Battle Merit Points!"
The fourth-place winner, however, was a surprise to everyone. The Snow Wolf Group!
The Snow Wolf Group was the team that survived until the end. So, by adding points for their number of survivors (calculated as survivors multiplied by 10) to their base score, and then gaining another 10 points, they managed to surpass the Bull Python Group and Tree Ape Group, which had only a small point gap with them. Thus, they secured fourth place.
"Fifth place, Tree Ape Group..."
Eventually, the five teams and their respective commanders took the stage.
It was evident from Zhang Lie’s face, which was beaming with a smile more radiant than yesterday’s sunshine. Unfortunately, no one was inclined to acknowledge him.
After they stepped down, everyone shifted their attention to the next figures about to appear on stage. The Legion had long made promises. For this outsourced Cultivation, the Breeders who placed in the rankings would also receive a reward from the military. And now was undoubtedly the time to present the awards.
They had little interest in the other Breeders, but among them was one whose name had become thunderously well-known over the past two days: Su Ping! At the mere age of eighteen or nineteen, he had bred a completely new Evolutionary Body for the Forest Wolf. And this new Evolutionary Body had performed spectacularly in this Legion Tournament. Anyone could tell that in the future, Su Ping’s name would likely spread, especially in Jianghai Province and even among certain circles in the eastern provinces.
Unfortunately, Su Ping hadn’t been sitting with the other Breeders; he was seated elsewhere. This made it difficult for those Breeders who had intended to approach him—whether to get acquainted, build connections, or even poach him with ill intentions—to make their move. Of course, perhaps Vice President Liu had sensed the malicious intent of these individuals and had made preparations in advance.
Sure enough, they didn’t have to wait long, as the Military Strategist’s voice quickly rose again: "Next, I invite Breeder Su Ping from the Forest Wolf Troop, Breeder Mo Tu from the Black Tiger Group, Breeder Bai Ying from the Shadow Leopard Group, Breeder Ms. Rong Qiu from the Snow Wolf Group, and Breeder Li Senlin from the Tree Ape Group to come to the stage."
Su Ping stood up from his seat. Under the strange gazes of everyone present, and unlike the other Breeders, he quickly reached the Military Strategist’s side in just three steps.
