Not only her, Zhen Xuelan and Luo Chengyun were both shocked.

They didn’t expect Chen Nan to be so strong!

Not only could his contracted beast kill vicious beasts of a higher level, but it could also deal with so many of them with such ease.

His strength couldn’t be so casually assessed because one would never know Chen Nan’s limit.

Qing Yunshi looked at Chen Nan in shock and had some doubts in her heart.

With the Swift-riding Wolf’s current strength, it was probably not a match for Chen Nan’s contracted beast.

“Call the City Defense Army to come and clean up the scene,” Chen Nan put Xiaochi back into his beast space and looked at the bodies on the ground.

As soon as he said this, the shocked crowd was instantly pulled back to their senses.

“Tl contact the City Defense Army right now,” Zhen Xuelan looked at the bodies on the ground and immediately took out her phone.

“This is the City Defense Army. What’s the matter?” A male voice came from the other end of the phone and asked Zhen Xuelan.

“The exploration mission has been completed. You can come and clean the scene up now,” Zhen Xuelan briefly told them what had happened.

Then, she hung up when she heard the response from the other end of the phone.

After hanging up the phone, they left from the hole and returned to Shanlan High School.

Not long after, the City Defense Army brought people to the scene.

After walking for a few minutes, they saw the figures of Chen Nan and the others.

The captain of the City Defense Army ordered people to clean up the scene and walked to the front of Chen Nan and the others.

At the same time, Zhen Xuelan noticed the captain come over and briefly recounted what had happened.

After hearing the whole story, the City Defense Army’s captain’s expression turned quite solemn. He glanced at the remains on the ground and said, “We will handle the rest of this matter. Thank you for completing this mission.”

The captain looked at them with gratitude.

Hearing this, Zhen Xuelan immediately waved her hand and said, “It’s all thanks to Chen Nan this time. If it weren’t for him, I’m afraid we wouldn’t have been able to complete this mission.”

She glanced at Chen Nan with admiration in her eyes.

Hearing this, the captain looked at Chen Nan. After sizing him up, he said, “Chen Nan, after you graduate from Luoyang Academy, would you consider joining the City Defense Ermy?”

Although he hadn’t witnessed Chen Nan’s strength before, he knew that Chen Nan must be very strong since his contracted beast was able to defeat vicious beasts above its level.

“No, thanks,” Chen Nan didn’t think too much about it and directly rejected his suggestion.

According to what he knew, the City Defense Army was mostly stationed in the more dangerous places in the city to protect the safety of the city.

Of course, some were stationed wtihn the city and were responsible with cleaning up the corpses of the vicious beasts.

Just like what he was seeing now.

Basically, there were very few opportunities for the City Defense Army to kill vicious beasts.

This was also the reason why he rejected the offer.

The moment he said this, Zhen Xuelan and Luo Chengyun looked at Chen Nan in astonishment.

One had to know that the benefits of joining the City Defense Army were very munificent.

Anyone who became a member of the City Defense Army would not only receive precious medicinal herbs for evolving contracted beasts, but there was also a pharmaceutical team that would help the members refine pills.

The whole reason they had been so eager to participate in the mission issued by the City Defense Army was to get the opportunity to join the City Defense Army.

Hence, when they heard that Chen Nan had rejected the offer, they were very surprised.

Why didn’t he agree? Why did he reject them, instead?

Did he not know about the generous treatment he would get from joining the City Defense Army?

Even Qing Yunshi, who had always been indifferent, could not help but look at Chen Nan a few more times when she heard these words, but she did not say anything.

This was Chen Nan’s matter after all, and it had nothing to do with her.

‘When the captain of the City Defense Army heard this, his expression was a little awkward, but he quickly recovered.

Looking at Chen Nan, he advised, “There are many benefits in joining the City Defense Army. Not only can you get precious medicinal herbs to evolve your contracted beast, but there will also be a top-notch pharmaceutical team to help you in the evolvement. Not only that, the probabilities that you will

have to fight personally will also gradually decrease.”

He thought that Chen Nan had rejected because he did not know the benefits of joining the City Defense Army.

Hence, the captain told him about these benefits, hoping that he would agree to join the City Defense Army after learning about it.

He didn’t expect that after Chen Nan heard these words, his rejection was even more thorough.

“Lwill not join. I only joined missions so frequently because I want to kill vicious beasts,” Chen Nan’s face was filled with determination.

Of course, he knew of the benefits of joining the City Defense Army, but no matter how good the benefits were, he would not join.

Because if he did, the chances of him killing vicious beasts would decrease as well.

He wouldn’t give up on the chance to obtain evolution points just because of the benefits.

“alright then,” Hearing Chen Nan’s words, the captain finally gave up.

Since he had already said so, it wasn’t good to force it.

The captain then shifted his gaze to the side and watched the scene that was about to be cleaned up.

On the other side, Zhen Xuelan and Luo Chengyun were very puzzled as they cast doubtful gazes at Chen Nan.

They couldn’t figure out what he was thinking.

They had never thought that he would reject the invitation for this reason.

After all, compared to becoming a member of the Hunter Association, the City Defense Army was a more popular organization.

Not only because of the treatment it offfered, but most importantly, the probability one had to fight personally was reduced.

It was because of this that everyone wanted to join the City Defense Army.

However, the requirement to join the City Defense Army was not as lenient as the Hunter Association.

Only with the invitation from a captain could one join the City Defense Army.

‘This was because when the City Defense Army cleaned up the scenes, they could see who the Beastmaster was that killed the vicious beasts.

At the same time, they could also see the level of the vicious beasts killed and the situation at the scene.

This would thus give them a rough understanding of the strength of the Beastmaster.

Only the strong would be invited.

This was also why they accepted missions so frequently. It was to let the captains of the City Defense Army see their strength and from there invite them to join the City Defense Army.

However, Chen Nan’s refusal was his matter alone, so they could only feel that it was a pity in their hearts.

At the same time, Chen Nan looked at the captain of the City Defense Army and asked, “How about the reward for this mission?”

He was more concerned about the reward.

After all, the rewards were very generous.

“It will be sent to you tomorrow,” The captain answered his question.

Hearing this, Chen Nan nodded, then turned and left the school, walking back to Luoyang Academy.

Everyone stood where they were and looked at his retreating back in surprise.

At this moment, Zhen Xuelan looked at Chen Nan’s retreating back and asked curiously, “Aren’t you and Chen Nan classmates? Why don’t you go back together?”

Wan’t it strange that they were classmates yet didn’t go back together?

Could it be that there was some sort of conflict between two of them?

As soon as she said this, Luo Chengyun also looked at Qing Yunshi curiously.

“Yeah, we’re just classmates,” Qing Yunshi stared ahead and said through gritted teeth.

Zhen Xuelan and Luo Chengyun looked at each other when they heard this, and a strange expression appeared on their faces.

At this moment, Zhen Xuelan was even more certain that there was indeed a conflict between Qing Yunshi and Chen Nan.

However, she didn’t say anything. After all, this was their business, and it wasn’t appropriate for her to interfere.

“[still have something to do, so I’ll take my leave first,” Zhen Xuelan glanced at the two of them before leaving as well.

Luo Chengyun took a look at Qing Yunshi, bid her farewell, and left too..
