...
Half an hour later.
Zhang Zhongting stood on the podium, speaking next to General Luo.
"I represent the whole corps’ referee team, and I hereby announce the results of this martial arts competition."
"The first place team, Guiyang Brigade!
The second place, Zun Y Team!
The third, Anshun Brigade!"
"For individual rankings, first place goes to Fang Huai, deputy squad leader of the Guiyang Brigade Special Service Squadron Second Squadron!
Second place, He Zhijun, assistant squad leader of the Guiyang Brigade Special Service Squadron Second Squadron!
Third place, Gui Qiang, squad leader of the Zun Y Team Special Service Squadron!"
Applause erupted from all around.
Beneath the stage, Fang Huai silently activated the system.
Damn it, the military rit value didn’t increase.
I need to earn rits!
Such a loss!
A third-class rit could only be exchanged for fifty points of military rit value, and during this competition’s ten events, he participated in eight, where in only one event, the One Hundred ters Ladder Attack Drill, he ca in second; for the rest, he was first. Given the scale of the corps-level martial arts competition, he should have gained at least sixty or seventy points of military rit value, right?
However, it seed a bit unrealistic for the winner of the corps martial arts competition to not be awarded any rits.
Well, forget it, it’s all for the honor!
At least I’ll have one more Military rit dal, and when I go to Beijing to accept the award in October, my chest will seem a bit more impressive.
"Next, I invite Commander Wu Yanping to read the comndation decision for this martial arts competition!"
Boss Wu stood up and saluted.
"With the approval of the active duty office and the provincial departnt, and given that Comrade Fang Huai broke records in three events during the corps martial arts competition, he is specially awarded the second-class ritorious service to comnd his exceptional performance in the competition!
He Zhijun and Gui Qiang are also awarded the third-class rit!
We hope that the honored soldiers will turn this glory into motivation and continue to pour themselves into intense practical combat training. We also hope that other comrades who have participated in the competition will persevere!
To sharpen the sword amidst winds and rains, to craft the spearhead through stormy seas!
Set sail anew with vigorous strokes and advance boldly with the determination to win!
In 2008, our firefighting forces...
A task is an opportunity, and competition is also glory!
Our corps will continue to leverage the motivating power of honor to inspire more soldiers to hone their skills and strive to be pioneers!"
The honors announcent stirred waves of excitent among the soldiers watching below.
Second-class ritorious service!
When did the previous corps martial arts competitions ever result in a second-class ritorious service?
Even for firefighters who risk their lives every day, it is a rare honor to receive. Although it’s not as simple as getting it while sitting or lying down, this kind of opportunity is sothing many soldiers don’t see even after years of risking life and limb!
The non-commissioned officer who received the second-class ritorious service could now be transferred and assigned a job!
Moreover, being comnded also adds to one’s service record! With a higher service record score, one can get priority assignnt during job placent! It’s said that those awarded First Class rit could be directly assigned to a tobacco company!
And now, the second and third places were also awarded third-class rit?
This is intense!
Big Demon King Fang had elevated the level of the rewards at the corps martial arts competition!
Fang Huai felt the envious glances cast his way, and he was montarily stunned.
Second... class rit?
Don’t say you’re the only ones surprised.
I’m quite stunned too!
Fang Huai had always been keeping an eye on the second-class rit that had eluded him, and now it had sohow fallen into his pocket. There was only one feeling in his heart.
I’ve made it!
Of course, that was just a nonsensical thought.
The emotion brought by the honor was irreplaceable by anything else.
It wasn’t until he was called by leadership to the stage to receive the award, and as he took over the Military rit dal box passed by General Luo to the resounding applause of the old soldiers on the playground that lasted for ages, and saluted the crowd below, that his resilient heart thumped wildly.
This feeling was truly wonderful.
After stepping down from the podium and the team disbanded, encouragents from comrades all around him imdiately followed:
"Fang Huai, our Guizhou Brigade relies on you this year! In previous national martial arts competitions, we were always the ones who got picked on. Those from Jiangsu and Guangdong were so arrogant!"
"Not just that, Liaoning, Shandong, Shanghai, Hunan, which one isn’t full of themselves? Last year when we went, they had already ranked the top ten! They said all we from Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan could do was run! In the end, Guangdong took ho the Five Kiloters empty call championship last year, and we were laughed at... damn!"
"Rise to the occasion! Bring us back a first place, and from then on, on the national combat competition field, we will also walk with our heads high, just like those big corps!"
"Hey, don’t put so much pressure on him. Just do your best! I heard that starting this year, the Grand Martial Arts Competition will also begin awarding individual gold dals! With your strong cross-country and assault skills, just bring us two gold dals back!"
Under the previous competition system, where there were more participants, quite a few had lost their edge at the national championship. Everyone had so grudge against that stage, which did not belong to the Guizhou Brigade.
With over thirty brigades and only around ten events, how many could truly stand out?
First place, the gold dal...
Fang Huai slowly regained his senses amid the expectations of everyone and activated the system, only to see a dazzling second-class Military rit dal. He gave it another try.
Suddenly, a system prompt appeared.
[Would you like to use the Second Class rit dal for a B-level Core Strength Enhancent?]
There it was!
Thank the heavens, the enhancent from a second-level military rit dal.
Fang Huai took a deep breath.
Enhance!
In an instant, Fang Huai vividly felt the strength in his torso swiftly growing, and his body coordination improved.
That strength brought confidence, and Fang Huai’s face revealed a slight smile.
I specialize in turning the tide against the wind.
Thinking this, he waved at Gui Qiang and Tao Dongdong in the distance.
"Let’s go, Old Gui, Old Tao, follow us back to the squadron! This year, I’ll lead you all to make a statent!"
