People came and went in the auditorium at noon. Everyone's eager and envious gazes landed on the people on the stage.
Lin Bai and the others were wearing military uniforms and looked majestic!
"Sigh! I heard that Lin Bai defeated the beast king alone. If it weren't for Lin Bai, those beasts wouldn't have killed each other in order to choose the king!"
"Tsk, maybe they're just lucky."
"Then you should try your luck too. Do you dare to? Don't be jealous. Weren't you looking forward to making the cash up?"
Everyone was discussing animatedly in the audience. The noisy and sarcastic voices seemed to have inadvertently poured into the few people on stage.
Lin Bai was fine, but Li Tongwu and his brother could not help but look a little embarrassed.
"How could they say that!"
"This is too much!"
Li Tongwu was still a little frightened when he thought of the scene back then!
Lin Bai pressed his hand and glanced at him indifferently. His expression did not change at all.
"They're just jealous. You don't have to bother with them."
His eyes swept across the audience indifferently, and the noisy comments immediately quietened down.
They seemed a little guilty.
Everyone wanted to rely on Lin Bai's novel to cash up their superpowers after all.
"Next, let's invite Lieutenant General Li Zhongjing of Marina Metropolis' First Military Brigade to award the special team with a medal!"
"The first mission of the special operations team was successfully completed! Under the leadership of Captain Lin Bai, they broke through the beasts lurking in the back mountain of the school and killed the beast king!"
"They made outstanding contributions to the safety of the school and protected the lives of the school's teachers and students… They prevented the school from suffering losses!"
"They also captured two Origin Beasts alive and wiped out the other Origin Beasts. There are about 50 Origin Beasts in total!"
The host's voice was quickly broadcasted to the four corners of the auditorium through the loudspeaker, causing the people who were jealous just now to immediately turn red and lower their heads.
Li Zhongjing's expression was dignified. He extended his hand and solemnly awarded Lin Bai with a medal, while the two Major Generals awarded the others with medals.
This medal represented supreme honor!
Ordinary people might not be able to get the medal awarded by the Lieutenant General even if they worked hard for their entire lives.
Lin Bai turned his body slightly and looked at Li Zhongjing. Li Zhongjing patted his shoulder and looked at him with a smile.
"Young man, you're promising. Are you interested in participating in the military selection in the capital in the future?"
Lin Bai was slightly stunned.
Was he qualified to enter the capital's army now?
The army of Marina Metropolis?
He paused for a moment. Li Zhongjing immediately retreated before he could answer.
It was as if he was just merely commenting on it.
Lin Bai did not ask further.
That's because the host wanted him to speak on behalf of the team!
He didn't write a speech at all, and he didn't know what he was going to say.
He had never experienced such a scene before.
He had always been a boring character, be it his memories before he transmigrated or the memories of his original body. He had never been a character who would be in the limelight, like going on stage to give a speech!
But everything was different now!
He was now standing on the podium with his own ability at what he was best at!
He stood in front of everyone and gave a speech!
It became the school's honor!
Lin Bai was still a little excited.
He held the microphone in his hand and spoke to everyone calmly.
"Thank you for your support. I hope everyone can cash up as soon as possible!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he handed the microphone to the host and turned to leave the stage.
"Lin Bai! Lin Bai!"
It was as if the audience had only just reacted to the situation as they let out thunderous applause.
This was the first time Li Tongwu and the others had seen such a scene. They could not help but feel a little dizzy as they looked at Lin Bai nervously.
"Lin Bai, they were all calling your name just now!"
"This is the first time I've seen them so excited!"
Lin Bai smiled faintly.
"There will be more scenes like this in the future. You guys can go back and rest first. I'll come back later."
When Li Tongwu saw Lin Bai's calm and unaffected expression, he felt even more admiration for him.
"Okay, okay."
"Then we'll head back first."
Zhang Haishan looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated seeing that Lin Bai was about to leave. The medal on his shoulder looked very shiny.
Lin Bai looked at him suspiciously. He left, seeing that he didn't say anything.
He planned to take a look at the house arranged by the school.
Let's see what my new home looks like.
The new house was in the apartment building next to the school. Even the security guards were retired soldiers, and the walls were specially made with steel glass.
There was no sound when he punched down.
It was very stable and safe!
Lin Bai boarded the elevator and slowly walked to the room. He entered the password.
The door swung open, revealing a wide, imposing living room.
The decoration of the room was very minimalistic. The necessary furniture were all there - a sofa, coffee table, and television in the living room.
The kitchen was semi-open and only used a partition door.
The bedroom and bathroom were extremely spacious. There was even a brand new desktop computer in the bedroom.
The screen was also using the latest LCD screen.
Lin Bai's lips curled up.
The school's reward for him was really not bad.
In the future, he could also live here when the school was on holiday. He did not have to return to the dilapidated, small, rented house.
The corners of Lin Bai's lips curled up slightly, looking extremely satisfied.
He thought of the Myriad World.
Where would Myriad World send the things like gifts to if he stayed here instead of in school in the future?
Lin Bai took out his phone and asked Editor Sake about it.
[Editor Sake: Don't worry! We're mailing things according to your location. We'll send them to you no matter where you are in the future.]
Lin Bai was instantly relieved.
[Editor Sake: If you find it troublesome, you can set it to send directly into your storage ring!]
Lin Bai's heart stirred.
It would be very convenient if the stuff could directly enter the storage ring. Wouldn't he be able to take out whatever he wanted?
Hence, Lin Bai asked Editor Sake to deal with it. The note was sent directly to the storage ring to prevent others from seeing them.
Lin Bai couldn't explain it too well either.
He made another trip to the rental house and delivered everything he needed to his new house when he was done.
However, there was really nothing in the rental house.
There were only a few beddings that were worth using.
Lin Bai smiled bitterly.
However, he did not think much of it. Not only had he entered the academy, he had also become the leader of the special team after all.
He even had a new house!
All of this was because of the Myriad World!
He might be able to obtain more things in the future as long as he were to write well in the future.
When Lin Bai thought of this, he was very happy.
By the time he returned to his dormitory, it was already late at night.
Li Tongwu opened the door and looked at Lin Bai impatiently.
"Lin Bai! You're finally back. The Dean's secretary just left. She came to tell us that he wants us to represent the school in a competition!"
