Chapter 434: Chapter 222: Qinling Guardian Medal!
The grand final of the Da Feng Cup is approaching, and the eyes of millions in Qin Province are focused on this event.
On the day before the grand final, the Qin Province Beastmaster Association suddenly announced—hearty congratulations on the birth of our province’s first High-tier Beastmaster.
Upon clicking in, Chen Yuan’s portrait and name prominently appeared, along with his life story and major achievements.
Leaving the previous parts aside, the information revealed in the achievements alone left countless netizens amazed:
[Recipient of the New Era Pioneer Medal]
[First Mid-tier Beastmaster of Baokun City]
[Guest of Honor at the Taibai Cup Championship Exhibition in Baokun City]
[Recipient of the Qinling Guardian Medal]
[First High-tier Beastmaster of Qin Province]
"Can we now announce in advance that Advisor Chen is the top Beastmaster in Qin Province?"
"Xia Heng is still competing for the championship? I suggest he should wash up early and go to bed."
"Wow, the value of Advisor Chen’s achievements!"
"Two medals, two firsts, how come there’s something odd mixed in the middle?"
"I’ve heard of the New Era Pioneer, what is the Qinling Guardian Medal?"
Chen Yuan had the same question. Since when did he receive a Qinling Guardian Medal?
Luckily, Zhou Xu quickly provided an answer: "Advisor Chen, to honor your indelible contribution to the protection of Qinling, and your indispensable role in the current Qinling survey action, the leaders specially applied for this unique medal for you."
"You are the only one in all of Donghuang to receive it."
"It is unique and irreplaceable."
With joy on his face, Chen Yuan quickly asked, "Is that matter already settled?"
"Almost, but there’s still some wrapping up to do. Once the finish-up is done, Contribution Value will be distributed." Zhou Xu understood what mattered most to Chen Yuan and spoke with a hint of smile, "It’s said to be an impressive amount of Contribution Value."
A smile spread across Chen Yuan’s face, and he waved his hand, smiling, "Contribution Value and such don’t matter. I’m mainly just contributing my part to the Qinling."
He paused, his eyes shining, "What Contribution Value though?"
Spark and Cola’s advancement resources require a significant amount of Contribution Value, which will come in handy.
"Uh..." Zhou Xu was initially stunned, then replied uncertainly, "Probably... about a week or so?"
Chen Yuan nodded: "Alright, I’ll wait patiently."
Zhou Xu wiped the sweat from his forehead, coughed unnaturally, and then changed the subject: "Advisor Chen, Chairman Wang also asked me to inquire about one matter."
"Hmm?"
"Tomorrow night is the grand final. Should we bring your relatives and friends to the venue to watch the game? We can dispatch a special vehicle to pick them up, so they can cheer for you on-site." Zhou Xu said.
"Hmm..." Chen Yuan’s eyes flickered, thinking it was a good idea, so he nodded, "I’ll ask."
For the old man and most of the elders in the village, the farthest they have been in their lifetime is Baokun City, and at most to nearby cities under the guidance of their children.
Although Phoenix City is within the province, for those raised in a remote mountain village, it still seems out of reach.
Inviting them to the site to watch the game, on one hand, lets them see a bustling metropolis, and on the other, to personally experience the lively atmosphere on-site, adding a memorable memory at the end of their slowly fading lives.
But when Chen Yuan conveyed this idea to the old man, he was immediately and firmly rejected.
Just as Chen Yuan was puzzled, the old man slowly explained: "The village chief and Song are preparing to set up a big screen on the eastern square to watch your match tomorrow. By then, the entire village, men and women, old and young, will watch. The village chief is also planning to call in people from several nearby villages."
"It’s more lively with more people."
Chen Yuan was taken aback.
The "little Song" in the old man’s words was actually Chen Yuan’s former leader, Station Chief Song Guohao.
To the east of Xuanhe Village, there is a large square with some fitness facilities and stone tables and benches.
The village elders usually wander here when they have nothing to do, gathering to chat or play cards.
It is said that many years ago, film projectors from other places would trek through mountains and waters to broadcast movies here in Xuanhe Village, right in this square.
Back then, villagers from several nearby villages would come a long way, each carrying a torch and weaving through the mountains. From a distance, it looked like a winding fire dragon.
Unexpectedly, this scene is about to reenact decades later.
But Chen Yuan soon realized a problem: "In this cold winter, watching the live broadcast outside will be quite chilly."
The old man is fine; having become a Beastmaster, his health is improving, and he can withstand blowing some cold wind for a short time.
However, it’s probably tough for the other elderly in the village. If one by one catches a cold, the village chief’s position might be precarious.
The old man laughed: "The village chief considered this issue, so he got Song to organize a batch of Fire-type Pet Beasts to help provide warmth at that time."
Chen Yuan leaned back, his face showing surprise.
Right, how could he forget about this?
This is the new era of harmonious coexistence between humans and Pet Beasts. How could he forget about these Pet Beasts, who possess incredible powers?
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan said, "Grandpa, tomorrow bring Duck and the others with you to watch the game in the village."
Duck and the gang have been staying home all day; it’s time for them to go out and move around.
"Tell them yourself."
After a while, a familiar sound came to his ears: "Quack?"
"Duck, you’ll lead the team tomorrow and organize the other partners to go with Grandpa to the village to watch the game." Chen Yuan said in a soothing tone, slowly speaking out, "This is the task I entrust to you. Successfully completing it can earn you two Spirit Fish."
The previously indifferent, yawning Duck lifted its head, immediately standing upright, back straight, eyes bright: "Quack!"
