nAfter receiving the other party’s affirmative reply, Chu Xiuyao fell silent once more.

n

nThis time, the silence was longer than before.

n

nNo one dared to interrupt.

n

nIn fact, they were also in a state of extreme shock. Fang Yuan, a student, could actually do this?

n

nSuddenly, Chu Xiuyao’s hearty laughter was heard in the air.

n

n“Hahaha! Very good! He really is a young hero from ancient times! Fang Yuan, is it? I’ll remember this name! The greater his ability, the greater his responsibility, the greater his contribution, and the greater his reward. This child is interesting. I want to reward him, I want to reward him heavily!”

n

nChu Xiuyao opened the drawer of the table.

n

nHe took out a crystal necklace wrapped in red velvet from the drawer.

n

nEveryone knew that the treasure inside was even rarer and stronger than the heart of the sea, the heart of the Scarlet Flame!

n

nThe built-in skill, the flaming dragon, could be said to be the best among single-target skills.

n

nMoreover, as long as the trainer wore this accessory, all the contracted fire-type pet beasts would have their attack power increased by three times.

n

nIt could be regarded to be extremely terrifying!

n

n“Youjing, Wanyue, you guys should hurry up and handle this matter. Give our student Fang Yuan a big award. I happen to have something in my hands. I’ll bring it to him as well.”

n

nChu Xiuyao twirled his beard, “We can’t let the hero be disappointed!”

n

nXu Youjing and Zhang Wanyue said in unison, “Yes!”

n

nAfter saying that, Commander Chu nodded. With a smile on his face, he left in satisfaction. “Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan, interesting, really interesting!”

n

nThe commander left the headquarters.

n

nHowever, the meeting hadn’t ended yet because Chu Xiuyao had already given them instructions which he repeated it twice.

n

n“Everyone should understand what commander Chu means, right?”

n

n“We want to reward Fang Yuan handsomely! We want to give him a big award! If anyone has any suggestions, feel free to share.”

n

n“I heard that his family’s background isn’t too good. Why don’t we just give him a monetary reward?”

n

n“I’ve investigated just now. Fang Yuan is a commoner and he lives in the lower city district of Chuxin City. The infrastructure is rather poor. Why don’t the military arrange for him to have a house in the upper city district for his family?”

n

n“I feel that it’s a little unrefined. Let the city council arrange to give him an honorary citizen recognition. What do you think?”

n

n“Only children will make choices. Adults want everything. All your suggestions are good. Let’s make all Fang Yuan’s rewards. He’s not on the battlefield, but he could lend a hand. This shows that he has a benevolent heart. He was able to defeat hundreds of demonized mad bulls by himself. This is his outstanding ability. Such a person is the young hero that the military wants. Saving 60,000 civilians and protecting the border town means stabilizing the entire eastern warzone. It’s not an exaggeration to give him any great credit!”

n

n…

n

nThe Military Region Command was in an uproar over what kind of reward to give to Fang Yuan.

n

nAnd at this moment, Fang Yuan, due to the sudden change, he had ended the freshman military training early.

n

nHe had just returned to his home in Chuxin City.

n

nHis mother hugged him tightly the moment she saw him.

n

nThe television in the living room was still reporting the news of the border town’s fall.

n

nAs expected, his mother was worried about him.

n

nFang Yuan hugged his mother tightly and said softly, “Mom, I’m fine.”

n

n“It’s good that you’re safe, it’s good that you’re safe.”

n

nHis mother only repeated this sentence and did not let go.

n

nAll of a sudden, the scene on the television changed and the emcee began to recite the news announcement.

n

n“Next, we are interrupting to broadcast an urgent news.”

n

n“The eastern military command has informed us that the demonized mad cow riot in the border town has been suppressed and quelled. Please do not worry.”

n

n“In ten minutes, there will be a commendation ceremony for the young comrades who have received important rewards for this battle.”

n

n“The ceremony will be broadcasted at the same time on all channels in the city. Welcome to watch the ceremony.”

n

nFang Yuan’s mother was a little stunned at first.

n

nNot long ago, they received news that the border town had been invaded by monsters, and more than five hundred demonized mad cows were wreaking havoc.

n

nNow it was over? It was over? There was even going to be a commendation conference?

n

nWhat kind of godly efficiency was this!

n

n“Looks like the country has become stronger.”

n

nFang Yuan’s mother sighed, “We have to thank the officers and soldiers on the front line for their hard work. I don’t know who made a great contribution in the military region, and they are even holding a commendation conference. They are really great heroes. They are too amazing. You have to learn from them.”

n

n“Got it, Mom.” Fang Yuan smiled bitterly.

n

nVery soon, the television program started.

n

nChu Xiuyao stood on the stage. “My friends, everyone should already know about the crisis in the border town… at such a difficult time, a hero stood out in the battlefield filled with flames. His actions can be said to be a role model for our generation.”

n

n“Therefore, I, Chu Xiuyao, stand here on behalf of all the military officers in the Eastern Warzone, and all the citizens in the Eastern Warzone, I would like to express my highest respect and sincere gratitude to this hero.”

n

n“I would like to solemnly read his name here. It was he who saved everyone. His name is Fang Yuan.”

n

n“Student Fang Yuan from Chuxin City’s The First High School, senior third year Class A! Thank you for everything you’ve done for everyone.”

n

nFang Yuan’s mother could not take her eyes off him. “Did you hear that, Xiao Yuan? You must be grateful that you’re able to return safely. Learn more from this hero. This hero… what? Fang Yuan?”

n

n“The hero is actually my son?!”

n

nFang Yuan’s mother suddenly stared fiercely at the name on the screen.

n

nConfirmation after confirmation, that’s right, it was indeed Fang Yuan. She was so happy that she cried. “Hahahaha, as expected of my son!”

n

nFang Yuan said, “Mom, calm down, calm down. This old man is so naggy, he hasn’t said what the reward is yet.”

n

n…

n

nThe award ceremony was set, and Mr. Fang Yuan was awarded the title of Honorary Citizen of Chuxin City.

n

nA pet relic heart of Scarlet Flame , a villa in the upper city district, and a 100 million yuan honorary citizen award.

n

nAt the same time, the television program was promoting his giant bear pet, the Titan Bear.

n

nMany different well-known experts and scholars had all kinds of guesses about the Titan Bear.

n

nIt also made Fang Yuan realize the problem.

n

nJust like what was said before, each pet had its own unique position. Now, Fang Yuan had an offensive pet, a control pet, and a support pet, but he seemed to lack a more useful defensive pet.

n

nOf course, the Titan Bear was strong enough, but it would be too much of a waste to send it to a regular pet battle.

n

nAnd the Titan Bear’s biggest problem was it liked to sleep too much. Most of the time, it would not even listen to the trainer’s orders and would sleep soundly on the battlefield.

n

nThis would be troublesome, and not flexible enough.

n

nIt could only be used as a last resort, but it was not suitable to be used as a pet beast that stayed by his side.

n

nHe had to find a defensive pet beast as a replacement as soon as possible.

n

nOf course, he could go to the arcane realm to capture it.

n

nHowever, because of the Honorary Citizen Award and Fang Yuan happened to receive a large sum of money, he wanted to solve the problem of balancing the team system in the fastest way.

n

nSo he decided to go to the pet shop to buy a defensive pet.

n

n“Welcome.”

n

nThe staff of the pet shop smiled and bowed slightly to Fang Yuan in greeting him.
