Chapter 430: Chapter 62: Awarding Honors
After the duel ended, dia coverage was everywhere, and even though they had already watched the live broadcast, the citizens of Byron Star still watched the replay of the fight over and over again.
The more they watched, the more they marveled at Xu Mo’s strength, with many details that they hadn’t noticed during the live broadcast, such as Xu Mo dodging and retreating just to appear among those scattered blades, and then controlling those blades to fight with his spiritual power.
Also, when Amanda launched her strongest attack, Xu Mo found the weakest point of the chanical Body and struck it down in one blow, then the chanical Body disintegrated, and Xu Mo actually withstood that hit.
The citizens grew more and more admiring.
Xu Mo had already been acclaid by the people of Byron Star as the star of the future, the most talented Transcendent of Byron Star with a boundless future.
Then, the screen switched to an official dia outlet reporting, “Mayor Liu Feng of Chuanxing City Governnt announced that they will cancel all preferential policies for Lancelot Star, but for other planets, Chuanxing City still maintains a friendly cooperation attitude.”
...
Upon seeing this news, the people scoffed. Had this cowardly mayor been forced to make such a statent after the victory in the duel?
“A spokesperson for the President’s Mansion stated, ‘Byron Star has always maintained a friendly attitude towards aliens, but in a recent series of events, many aliens have not been so friendly towards Byron Star, especially the Lancelot Star People, who trample on Byron Star’s laws. Should we re-evaluate our diplomatic strategies?'”
Although this ssage wasn’t very detailed, it was quite significant. The statent from the President’s Mansion ant that the Federation Governnt was also very dissatisfied with the aliens, which also matched public opinion.
There seems to be a lack of consistency between the President’s Mansion and the Chuanxing City Governnt regarding their diplomatic stance.
“Additionally, the President’s Mansion declared that in this duel, Xu Mo fought for Byron Star, guarding the honor of Byron Star. The President will personally award him the highest honor, the Purple Gold dal.”
When the news broke, the people of Byron Star were extrely uplifted and proud of Xu Mo.
The Purple Gold dal hadn’t appeared for many years; it was the highest honor of Byron Star. Although Xu Mo had defended the dignity of Byron Star, the contributions he made seed not enough to earn the Purple Gold dal in the eyes of the public; a Silver Star dal would have been nearly sufficient.
However, the President’s Mansion granted Xu Mo the highest level of honor by awarding him the Purple Gold dal, which was an exceptional honor.
It seed that the Federation Governnt also intended to create a totemic figure, and naturally, the people of Byron Star were happy for Xu Mo; he would beco a symbol for a generation.
Recipient of the Purple Gold dal before the age of eighteen—what an honor!
Xu Mo learned about the news through the Divine Sword Bureau.
After the duel, he had returned to the Divine Sword Bureau for cultivation. There were ssages on the Communicator, but he didn’t answer them because of the training.
In the Divine Sword Bureau, Shi Qiang, Fu Yuan, and Xu Mo were walking together.
Shi Qiang inford Xu Mo about this.
Xu Mo, not quite understanding, asked, “What is the Purple Gold dal?”
“The highest honor dal of Byron Star, only those who have made great contributions to Byron Star have the chance to receive it. Within the Divine Sword Bureau, there is only one,” Fu Yuan explained to Xu Mo.
This revelation surprised Xu Mo. Why would the President’s Mansion bestow upon him the highest-level dal?
“Is there a prize money?” Xu Mo asked.
“……” Shi Qiang stared in astonishnt, turning to Fu Yuan, What kind of thought process was that?
“No, it is the highest honor,” Fu Yuan said.
“No prize money?” Xu Mo was sowhat disappointed, “Then can it be exchanged for prize money? I don’t want the dal.”
“Fu Yuan, you talk to him, I have sothing else to take care of,” Shi Qiang left.
What kind of person!
“No,” Fu Yuan responded.
“Team Fu, why would the President’s Mansion give the highest honor dal?” Xu Mo curiously asked, recalling that he had previously declined an invitation from the President’s Mansion.
“It’s complicated,” Fu Yuan looked toward the distance, “These are things I didn’t want to tell you about, but I didn’t expect the President’s Mansion would award you the Purple Gold dal.”
Xu Mo said nothing, listening patiently.
“The President’s Mansion and the Divine Sword Bureau have different political views regarding aliens,” Fu Yuan began.
Xu Mo was surprised; he knew the Divine Sword Bureau was political but hadn’t realized it had different political views from the President’s Mansion.
So, he had declined an invitation from the President’s Mansion but had joined the Divine Sword Bureau; was that offending the President’s Mansion?
Then why would the President’s Mansion still award him the Purple Gold dal?
“You should know the history of the Divine Sword Bureau. During the founding of the Federation, the first generation of Federation heroes, so entered the Federation Governnt, so founded the Divine Sword Bureau, affecting everything today. Previously, there weren’t many disagreents between the two sides; both were striving to develop Byron Star, but as ti went on, so disagreents occurred; so of the elders grew old, and their thinking beca old and conservative, while the Divine Sword Bureau was the party of reforrs, especially evident in their attitude toward aliens,”
“Our people from the Divine Sword Bureau have visited different planets and know the gap between us and so advanced civilizations, so there is still a long way to go. We need constant innovation and need to maintain friendly relations with various alien planets. Oftentis, we even need to sacrifice so dignity, and these are things that require the cooperation of the Federation Governnt.”
“But…” Fu Yuan sighed.
“Of course, perhaps in the eyes of so old people, we are also wrong, lacking backbone, cringing and kowtowing.”
