Peerless

Brewster frowned.

This is the third day of the competition. Six events have already been completed, and the winner of each event is that young Huaxia soldier.

"So it turns out that you're the ones who really want the Solar Star Medal."

He's not stupid. With the competition nearly halfway through, he's had an overwhelming advantage in almost every game. Sean is no match for him at all.

Brewster, having weathered many storms, knew that this young Huaxia man was not so simple.

Representatives from European Union Country, the Peacock Country, and the Rakshasa Country also remained silent.

The honor of the Solar Star Medal itself is a minor matter. The Secret Item No. 118 has not been researched for so many years and is not that important is not a big deal. However, the fact that this matter itself could lead to a crushing defeat in International Special Forces Competition is not a respectable thing.

Li Dawei did not deny it. "We were not interested in this originally, but, Mr. Brewster, your approach is not in accordance with the rules."

He countered, "Do you know who sent this young athlete?"

Brewster looked at Li Dawei and uttered a questioning syllable.

Li Dawei said, "It's Councillor Jia."

Although Jia Yi's name wasn't as well-known as Hong's or Thunder God's, it was still quite famous.

Aside from the five chairpersons of the War God Palace, Jia Yi is among the top-ranked members of the council.

"He called me personally and said that the reason why humanity was able to survive during the Great Nirvana period and establish these twenty-three Base City in a world full of monsters, building humanity's last fortress, was because of unity, cooperation, and trust."

"This trust is hard-won, so we should cherish it, not destroy it. Councillor Jia sent this contestant to obtain the Solar Star Medal for nothing other than to show your respect."

"Respect is the prerequisite for a win-win situation."

Brewster fell silent after hearing Li Dawei's words.

The morning of the seventh day.

Over the past six days, Lin Yan led the Huaxia team to victory.

At this moment, Li Dawei and representatives from the other four countries stood on the podium.

With a beaming smile, Li Dawei announced, "Hereby, I declare the International Special Forces Competition a complete success."

A round of enthusiastic applause erupted from the audience.

"Furthermore, in this competition, we have a competitor who won first place in thirteen events. He is Lin Yan from Huaxia."

"According to the competition rules, after discussions among representatives from various countries, we will determine Lin Yan's exclusive title, and Mr. Brewster from the United States will present him with the medal!"

Everyone was prepared for this, so there was little surprise.

Strength is the most powerful calling card.

Lin Yan's performance in these thirteen competitions was remarkable, and there was really nothing to complain about.

That arrogant Sean is almost developing PTSD.

That's really tragic.

Second place is the biggest loser; what does second place in thirteen categories even mean?

I dare not speak, I dare not ask.

After his name was called, Lin Yan stepped out of the line and walked towards the podium.

Brewster, his face etched with the lines of time, looked at the vibrant Lin Yan and patted him on the shoulder.

"You are excellent."

"No one deserves this medal more than you."

He picked up a sun-shaped medal from a tray held by someone nearby; it gleamed golden in the sunlight.

"After discussion, we have finalized your exclusive title."

"—Peerless!"

Lin Yan saw that on the back of the Solar Star Medal, the word "Peerless" was written in the languages of the five great nations.

Brewster carefully pinned the medal to Lin Yan's chest and then saluted.

Lin Yan returned the salute with a military salute.

The camera captured this moment.

Today, this international competition, which has lasted for more than 30 years, has finally produced its first and biggest winner.

Afterwards, Lin Yan was invited to Li Dawei's office.

"Report!"

Li Dawei replied, "Come in."

Lin Yan entered the office, stood at attention, saluted, and said, "Commander, Lin Yan from the Tianjing Military Region is reporting for duty."

Li Dawei seemed very happy. "Before you came, Dai Chun praised you to the skies to me."

"I've never seen him praise anyone before. I was wondering why this old guy had changed his ways at his age, but when I met him, I realized that every word he said was true."

Li Dawei looked at Lin Yan and found him pleasing to the eye no matter how he looked at him.

"Please sit down, please sit down!"

Lin Yan sat down in the chair and said, "You flatter me, sir."

Li Dawei laughed heartily, "I'm not flattering you. I've had a really comfortable time these past few days. Those foreign representatives were all incredibly polite to me, especially Brewster. He rose to fame Great Nirvana period and is much more senior than me, but he has to listen to whatever I say."

"Who told him to be in the wrong?"

"That feels so good!"

Lin Yan did not get involved in this topic.

Li Dawei asked, "Lin Yan, what are your plans next?"

The special forces competition has ended, and the other soldiers will return to their original units soon. However, Lin Yan is a special case, Jia Yi Dai Chun have given him enough freedom.

Therefore, he can carry out his activities according to his own ideas.

Lin Yan frankly replied, "I feel that I will soon break through to the Warrior level, and then I plan to train in the Wilderness Area to familiarize myself with my strength."

Li Dawei was taken aback. "Breaking through to the Warrior General level?"

How old are you to have already broken through to the Warrior level?

Lin Yan affirmed, "Yes, I've already sensed that I've hit a bottleneck."

Actually, he was still some distance from the peak of Advanced Warrior, but a notification popped up on the system panel this morning.

The Side Mission "Suppressing the Beast Tide" has been completed.

Congratulations on receiving the mission reward: one portion of Dragon Blood.

Presumably, the beast tide in the Northern Military Region has now truly subsided.

He can achieve a huge improvement with this Dragon Blood, so there is no need to follow the usual steps.

Therefore, he plans to break through to the Warrior level as soon as possible, unlock the Second Skill Tree, and become Mental Master, which would be of great benefit to him.

Li Dawei was somewhat amazed, never expecting that the Military would produce such a talented soldier; it was truly a blessing for the country.

"If you need anything during your time in Jiangnan, just let me know. Here, no matter what, my word carries weight."

Lin Yan smiled and said, "Then I won't stand on ceremony. I hope you can arrange a training room where I won't be disturbed."

The use of Dragon Blood must be done in secret, otherwise it cannot be explained, and one must not be disturbed.

"I'll have someone arrange it right away."

At Li Dawei's command, his secretary led Lin Yan to a secret room. "This is the key to the secret room. There's only one. You can use it for the time being. Just return the key to me when you're done."

Lin Yan thanked him, saying, "Thank you for your trouble."

"You're welcome, it's all I should do," the secretary said with a smile. "Since you want to cultivate, then I won't disturb you any longer."

Lin Yan watched his secretary turn and leave, then used his key to unlock the alloy lock on the secret room, went inside, and closed the door again.

Lin Yan brought up the system panel. Dragon Blood was not a manual or skill, but a physical item, so he had to claim it himself.

Concentrate.

A test tube suddenly appeared in his hand. He had no idea how it got there, and it felt like it had always been in his hand all along.

Information about how to use Dragon Blood also came to mind.

Lin Yan was somewhat curious about the existence of the system, but he was also quite easygoing; this was something he couldn't understand now, and he would think about it later.

Focus your attention on the test tube in your hand.

"This is the Dragon Blood that the Limit Martial Hall sells for 80 billion?"

The test tube was sealed with a cork and contained a golden, blood-like liquid that occupied one-third of the test tube's volume.

Looking at this golden blood, Lin Yan felt a strange sense of beauty.
