Playing a DPS Role with Absolute Defense-Chapter 206 - 204: Su Mo’s Meritorious Service

The gods clamored and discussed, glaring at Tu Hongwu, hoping he could provide a reasonable explanation.

Even the divine-level powerhouses from Tu Hongwu’s faction chose to remain silent.

Below, the mighty warriors all bowed their heads in silence.

The atmosphere in Qingbei University’s square became strangely tense.

However, outside the Qingbei University campus, when the rest of the Human Race heard of Su Mo being awarded the War God Medal, they began to cheer.

They did not know who Su Mo was, nor had they ever seen Su Mo.

But they clearly understood the significance represented by the War God Medal.

The first requirement to receive the War God Medal is to have slain a deity of the Alien Race!

The second is having made an immense contribution to the Human Race.

Only after fulfilling these two requirements can one be awarded the War God Medal.

The ordinary populace didn’t need to know much; they only knew that the Human Race gained another War God, and that alone was enough for them to rejoice.

In places like hotels, taverns, and restaurants, upon hearing this news, they began to offer unlimited free drinks and beverages to everyone...

Within the Star Realm of the Human Race, countless warriors guarding the borders learned that the Human Race had another War God, and they shouted in unison.

The Human Race rules!

The Human Race rules!

The Human Race rules!

Each shout connected into a continuous roar, causing the entire Star Realm to tremble.

Numerous weaker alien races, hearing the sudden cheer of the Human Race, shivered in fear.

However, the outside cheering and the atmosphere within Qingbei University campus seemed like two different worlds.

There was no joy, and it even seemed somewhat heavy.

Looking closely, one could even see a hint of tension ready to explode.

The two requirements for the Three-Star War God Medal—just slaying a god alone is not something anyone can do.

Moreover, divine-level beings aren’t as common as cabbages in the universe, easily encountered at any time.

Even if you encounter one, whether they’re a High-tier God or a Low-tier God is uncertain.

If a battle breaks out and you can’t defeat them, isn’t that even more embarrassing? 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Alien divine-levels have inherent gifts that make even defeating them extremely difficult, let alone slaying them.

As for the second point of making a great contribution to the Human Race, it’s a very general term.

No one has ever defined exactly what constitutes a great contribution.

Chu Tian, at the Human Race’s time of crisis, became divine, and upon becoming a god, he fought one against six, effortlessly slaying four divine-level aliens and severely wounding two; that’s a great contribution.

Tu Hongwu contributed his deadly intent origin to the Human Race’s countless war weapons, pioneered formations becoming the foundation of current arrays, and serves as the Grand Marshal of the Human Race, which is also a great contribution.

The War God Medal is divided into three levels: Three-Star War God, Six-Star War God, and Nine-Star War God.

They correspond to Low-tier God, Middle-tier God, and High-tier God respectively.

Of course, as mentioned above, becoming a god doesn’t automatically grant you a War God Medal.

A medal isn’t expensive, akin to the early Olympic gold medals.

The gold medal isn’t costly; what it represents is honor.

Considering the mentioned requirements, even these divine-level beings haven’t achieved them, so why should Su Mo receive the War God Medal?

Simply because he is a disciple of Blood Slaughter God Tu Hongwu!

Don’t say those divine-level powers outside Tu Hongwu’s faction were unsatisfied.

Even the faction led by White War God, known to be close allies of Tu Hongwu, felt somewhat uneasy about this.

They fought hard, risking their lives to protect the Human Race’s territory without receiving a War God Medal.

Yet now they were expected to give the medal to an inexperienced young man.

This situation would evoke thoughts in anyone.

Zhao Shijie stood up, looked sternly at Tu Hongwu, and said, "Marshal Tu, I now request you to give us a reasonable explanation!"

Tu Hongwu slowly turned his head, and the terrifying aura immediately pressed on Zhao Shijie, causing him to stagger back into his seat.

His blood-red eyes glanced at Zhao Shijie, a smidge of fierceness flickering in them:

"Are you questioning me?"

"No, no, we merely hope that Marshal Tu can be fair and just, and also want to know what justified Su Mo receiving the War God Medal!"

Seeing this, Tu Hongwu turned back to Su Mo, a golden scroll unfurling slowly in his hands.

"Su Mo, on July 26th, in the 224th year of Great Xia, led a group of Gold-grade warriors in resisting an alien deity for 1 hour and 46 minutes, successfully delaying time so that children could escape, until our Human Race’s divine-level beings arrived!"

As Tu Hongwu’s voice fell, silence spread through the scene!

However, after a moment, another divine-level being jumped out and said: "Marshal Tu, isn’t that statement not right? If just these tools make one eligible for the Three-Star War God Medal, wouldn’t everyone here qualify?"

"Yes, isn’t this achievement insufficient?"

"What if I told you he was only level 20 then!"

At these words, the whole Qingbei University campus suddenly turned silent!

All the divine-level beings even found their breathing halted for a moment.

"Marshal Tu, do you believe the words you said; a level 20 child resisting an alien deity, I find this joke not funny at all."

"I also heard about this matter at the time, but the final outcome seemed to be that you, Marshal Tu, were the one who slew the alien deity."

"Boldly placing the glory on your disciple, does Marshal Tu actually think we’re blind?"

Tu Hongwu remained silent, waving his hand, causing the golden scroll in his hand to fly towards the bronze bell’s virtual shadow in the sky.

The next moment, the previously somewhat illusory bronze bell became substantially solid.

Witnessing this, the pupils of all the divine-level beings contracted sharply.

Having seen several War God Medal conferrals, they naturally understood what this signified.

This is the Human King Cauldron acknowledging Tu Hongwu’s statement and responding to it.

It is known that the Human King Cauldron is combined from the souls of countless sages of the Human Race.

If the survival of the Human Race were truly at stake, these heroic souls, once sacrificing for Great Xia, would fight for the Human Race once more.

Zhao Shijie, staring at the somewhat illusory Human King Cauldron in the sky, frowned and said:

"Even if his achievement is true, it’s still not enough to earn a Three-Star War God Medal!"

Tu Hongwu snorted coldly, a golden scroll materializing in his hand as he began reading slowly:

"Su Mo, on August 29th in the 224th year of Great Xia, discovered an alien nest abroad, slaying two gods!

On the same day, a super-god-level powerhouse of the demon tribe launched an attack; to fulfill a wager, Su Mo entered a Gold-level dungeon, slaying another god!

Successfully protecting the entire Human Race, today, in the capacity of the Grand Marshal of the Human Race of Great Xia, I requested the Human King Cauldron to award Su Mo the Three-Star War God Medal!"
