Lü Shu slowly walked toward the flag-raising platform. He knew that he would definitely be promoted after the Salt Lake Ruins, and he would definitely receive new rewards. However, he did not expect it to come so soon. On the third day of his return to Luoyang City, the conferment ceremony was held, and it was a conferment ceremony only for him.
This feeling … was great!
When he walked up to the flag-raising platform, Lü Shu suddenly turned around and saw Cao Qingci staring at him. However, Lü Shu could not see any emotion from his expression. He was very calm.
Lü Shu stood next to Li Yixiao. Li Yixiao continued, "I'm afraid everyone already knows about the opening of the Qingzhou Salt Lake Ruins. Today is not just a simple announcement of Lü Shu's promotion to C-level, but a formal conferment ceremony. Lü Shu made a great contribution in the Salt Lake Ruins. Tengra Earth Net has decided to award Lü Shu the rank of major based on his contributions and his current strength level! "
This time, everyone really couldn't hold it in anymore. The rank of major! A f * cking 17-year-old major?!
What rank were they at? Was he a second lieutenant? The gap in between was too big!
For example, what was the military rank of Xi Ba and the others? It was a captain!
In other words, Lü Shu's speed of advancement was like a rocket. Not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of military rank, he had completely surpassed the teachers-in-charge of Tengra Earth Net.
This was hilarious. When Xi Ba saw Lü Shu, he called Lü Shu 'Sir'. Then, when Lü Shu saw Xi Ba, he called 'Teacher'?
But even though this matter was hilarious, it still happened.
Although Lü Shu had joked with Chen Baili that he had the temperament to be a major, he thought that he would probably be at the same rank as Xi Ba and the others. In the end, the other party really gave him the rank of major!
In fact, most C-level experts had the rank of major. Under normal circumstances, experts who could obtain C-level techniques were those who had performed meritorious deeds. That was how they were able to break through to C-level.
In Tengra Earth Net, as long as one was a C-level expert, they would definitely have performed meritorious deeds. So logically, there was nothing wrong with it.
Earth Net bosses like Zhong Yutang, who were in charge of the Tengra, were Lieutenant Colonels. Above them were the Tengra under Nie Ting.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Lü Shu's current status had already reached a higher level, and so had his strength.
With the passage of time, the number of cultivators of various levels would inevitably increase. Not only would there be C-class and B-class cultivators, but there would also be A-class cultivators.
However, the problem was that Lü Shu was already in the lead at the starting line.
The ones who were most shocked were still Lü Shu's classmates. Everyone subconsciously thought that Lü Shu was a player who relied on his Awakening. Although he was doing well now, when they continued to improve their strength, Lü Shu would inevitably be left behind. Who asked him to be the weakest among the Garrison-Grade students?
In the end, not only had the other party broken through D class, he had even reached C class. This was a height that they could only look up to!
Liu Li was dumbfounded. He did not even want his hair anymore, but he still could not catch up to the other party? Thinking back to what he had said just now, he felt so embarrassed!
"C class …"
"When will we be able to cultivate to C class?"
Based on the aptitude of those below Garrison-Grade, most people wanted to cultivate to C class, even if they had top-notch blessed lands. Liu Li, who had Garrison-Grade aptitude, would only need half a year, while the rest would need more than a year …
This was under the situation where they had made contributions and were given the green light to impart their techniques.
Without contributions, needless to say, they might be stuck at E class for the rest of their lives. This was the iron law of the Tengra's Earth Net.
The conferment ceremony began. Originally, Lü Shu thought that he would receive a standard longsword. Unexpectedly, Li Yixiao handed him two spears. These were the spears of the Skeleton Cavalrymen that he had obtained from the Northern Ocean Ruins.
Not only that, he was given two spears at once. It seemed to be specially prepared for Lü Shu's own throwing ability. This was a special treatment!
Although there were still 12 spears left in Lü Shu's Seal of Mountains and Rivers, just based on the other party's attitude towards this special reward, Lü Shu felt grateful. After all, even if the other party had only given him a normal longsword, Lü Shu would not have said anything.
Li Yixiao laughed softly. "Work hard to awaken. I want to see to what extent you can awaken. If you are really amazing and can advance to B class, I will even give you my Black Dragon Spear … No, it's a little heartache. Let's talk about it when you really reach B class …"
Lü Shu's face darkened. If I don't give it to you, why would I say anything? Can't you be more reliable? What happened to Yixiao's generosity?
Needless to say, Lü Shu was really looking forward to that Black Dragon Spear. If he had such a powerful killing weapon, strength-type Awakened would also be able to enjoy a spring. That was a weapon that came with its own special effects, alright?
Li Yixiao instructed, "Nie Ting is currently not in the capital, so you don't have to rush to debrief. I will inform you when he returns. You can head to the capital together with Cao Qingci."
Lü Shu's heart tightened. As expected, he had to debrief according to the procedure. That would require a lot of preparation.
However, Cao Qingci was going to debrief as well? He had actually reached the peak of D class in such a short time? It should be noted that Jiang Shuyi was only at the intermediate stage of D class. It was said that Cao Qingci's residence was very rundown and not a blessed land.
Cao Qingci was a true genius.
"Come, why don't you say a few words to everyone?" Li Yixiao's ball-like face was all smiles.
"Err …" Lü Shu was stunned for a moment. He lowered his voice and said, "I don't know how to speak. Don't."
For a contestant like him, it was fine to criticize others, but it would probably be a little unreliable for him to give an official speech.
Ever since he was young, Lü Shu's grades had been very good. However, the homeroom teachers were very clear about Lü Shu's personality. Therefore, they had never asked him to give any fake speeches or anything like that. The homeroom teachers were a little worried that the situation would get out of hand …
Now that Li Yixiao had finally appeared and dared to ask Lü Shu to give a public speech, Lü Shu was stunned. He really did not know what to say!
Li Yixiao was unhappy. I've given a speech so many times. It's good that you don't know how to speak. I can't be the only one embarrassed. Thinking of this, Li Yixiao encouraged him. "You're already a major. Be more confident and brave!"
After listening to Li Yixiao's words, Lü Shu pondered for a long time. Then, he raised his voice slightly. "I don't know how to speak!"
"You have successfully trolled Li Yixiao's negative emotions, + 666!"
Li Yixiao's expression darkened. 'Did I ask you to be brave in this aspect?! Do you think that with Li Xianyi and Chen Baili backing you up, you can … '
'Can't I, Li Yixiao, defeat them?' 'That's right, I can't defeat them.'
'Hehe, how infuriating, but I still have to maintain my smile.'
In the end, Lü Shu did not give any speech. He really wanted to reap some benefits on this occasion, but this was a solemn conferring ceremony after all …
