Night’s Nomenclature

Countdown 90:00:00.

6:00 AM.

Most students from the Outer World outside Whale Island were still fast asleep at home, only some more hardworking high school students would get up at this time.

But it's different on Whale Island. Here, there is a collective morning exercise at 6:00 AM every day. Following the Academy instructors for morning exercises, you can get 10 points.

Now, it means there are points to earn both morning and evening.

In the past, morning exercises and studying were activities with invisible benefits, or rather, their benefits came too slowly, making it difficult for students to persevere with such a long-term perspective.

But now it's different. The benefits on Whale Island are immediately available and foreseeable.

As a result, those originally lazy students suddenly became diligent.

Actually, this extra point system didn't exist originally.

The Academy's decision-makers believed that the Academy needed a more open and lively atmosphere. They encouraged everyone to try different things and live different lives.

Therefore, there was no morning exercise at the beginning of the snowy plains.

As a result, a girl named Chen Zhuoqu actually found the administration and made her own suggestion: "If Kunlun hopes that students' living habits here will get better and better, more self-disciplined, then they should set up morning exercise programs and encourage everyone to face a positive life."

"Although the Academy didn't have this program before, as long as it is positive, it can be set up."

After listening to Chen Zhuoqu's statement, the Academy thought carefully, and there was really nothing wrong with it. Wasn't it just that the Academy teachers needed to get up early and work harder? They, Kunlun, weren't afraid of hard work.

Therefore, the morning exercise program appeared.

Morning exercises are not mandatory. Whoever wants to earn points can come, so no one scolded Chen Zhuoqu for being nosy.

And Chen Zhuoqu, unfailingly, does morning exercises on time every day, bringing her daily points up to 70.

Others need three or four days to earn enough points for one product, but she can earn enough in two days.

The difference between students like Chen Zhuoqu is that ordinary students do whatever projects are available in the Academy, while students like Chen Zhuoqu create projects even when there are none.

In the eyes of such students, it seems that there are no difficult things in this world, only oneself who is not hardworking enough.

Born to be a top student!

In the Academy, there are at least dozens of such students. Zheng Yuandong commented that they are born winners, and the Academy must pay close attention to them, striving to absorb them into the Kunlun organization.

Those who go to college can be directly absorbed, while high school students will be absorbed after they go to college.

Anyway, they cannot be snatched away by the Nine Provinces. These people are all talented individuals who will be able to stand on their own in the future.

During the morning exercises, everyone suddenly looked south. Someone whispered, "Is my memory confused? It seems that several mountains have appeared in the south? Why haven't I seen them before?"

"I haven't seen them either. They have just appeared, but these mountains are too steep, looking like smooth cliffs from afar."

Chen Zhuoqu in the team looked over. If something is unusual, there must be something strange. Previously, the Agricultural Academy suddenly appeared in the Academy, and then the Academy launched those magical products.

Now that there are several more mountains, something new must be happening.

She took out her phone while doing morning exercises, but there was no announcement.

That's strange. Is it not time for the announcement yet?

At this time, the instructor next to her looked at her, "Chen Zhuoqu, deduct 5 points for looking at your phone during morning exercises."

Chen Zhuoqu sighed. She shouldn't have looked at her phone.

In the main teaching building, Zheng Yuandong was standing on a tall building, overlooking the thousands of students doing morning exercises.

Ni Ergou came behind him, "Boss, what are you looking at? So excited."

"I'm watching the students do morning exercises," Zheng Yuandong said, "This matter is quite interesting. In a free environment, most students think about letting loose and having fun. After all, they have just left their parents and no one is restraining them. During the first few days of school, people were drinking until they passed out every day, the private cinema was full every day, and some people stayed up all night playing games in the dormitory. This is the case in all universities in the Outer World now. However, some people will stand out in this environment. Pay close attention to these students doing morning exercises. Ambition is the driving force that supports their self-discipline. Among these people, some will surely shine brightly in the future."

Zheng Yuandong's Time Traveler Academy does not constrain students like some strictly disciplined schools by checking dorms, taking attendance, and checking secluded places every day, but instead uses a points system to guide students.

Compared to the former management method, the latter is clearly superior.

Now, the Academy is full of vigor and vitality. Except for a small number of students, most students have fallen into the happy process of earning points and growing.

This is what Zheng Yuandong wants to see.

However, it's not enough. He wants to see some elites emerge, who will be Kunlun's key training and recruitment targets.

Of course, recruitment should be easy, after all, this is Kunlun's home ground, and the Nine Provinces cannot interfere.

Zheng Yuandong curiously asked, "Aren't you cultivating? Why have you left seclusion?"

Ni Ergou smiled, "I cultivated for more than three days, I need to take a break. I'll continue my seclusion after breakfast later. By the way, the Agricultural Academy suddenly submitted a points task, which is quite outrageous. I want to show it to you."

Zheng Yuandong took the tablet and gasped, "1000 points, plus one Purple Orchid Star, Jingshan Tea, and Eternal Heaven Fruit each? This guy is too rich. What's he going crazy about, so generous?"

At first, he and He Jinqiu judged that the Agricultural Academy could ensure that 5 people seamlessly connect to the Purple Orchid Star, and Jingshan Tea, etc., might only provide dozens of copies a month.

Later, they thought that Qing Chen should be able to ensure that more than ten people seamlessly connect at the same time, which is the limit.

Now, even the sixteen Golden Family members of the Guardians' Union have landed on the island, including Little Seven, whom he has met.

Qing Chen specially let these people go to the island for seclusion, how could he not guarantee their seamless connection to the Purple Orchid Star?

And the Agricultural Academy's Jingshan Tea and Eternal Heaven Fruit have been shipped out in large quantities since yesterday, in order to drain the students' points and let everyone work for the Guardians' Union.

It's as if the Time Traveler Academy is for Daybreak!

Today, Qing Chen submitted another outrageous plan, sending out Purple Orchid Star, Eternal Heaven Fruit, and Jingshan Tea as if they were free.

It's unbelievable!

Zheng Yuandong suddenly felt that Qing Chen had deceived them all. The growth rate of the Purple Orchid Star is probably dozens of times higher than what Qing Chen said initially.

But this is too terrifying. If it were placed in the Underworld Consortium, it wouldn't make sense without cultivating two or three Demi-Gods!

Ni Ergou added, "In this task, only ordinary people can participate, so not many people will pass. However, he only has the authority of 300 points, which means we have to increase his authority."

Zheng Yuandong thought for a moment, "Regardless, it's a good thing that he's willing to give out so many resources to students. As long as the Outer World Time Travelers are growing, it's what Kunlun wants to see. Let's approve this task and increase his authority to unlimited points, just like mine."

Ni Ergou nodded, "I've also investigated recently. This Qing Chen kid still understands the importance of things. The Agricultural Academy never sells products privately, only providing them for its own people. People have tried to buy from the Agricultural Academy students, but they haven't been able to buy any."

"Well, as long as it doesn't violate the fairness of our points system, it's fine. As for his own forces, as long as they keep a low profile, they can play however they want. After all, his status in the Inner World is quite good to be able to come to Whale Island," Zheng Yuandong nodded, "Also, don't keep calling him "this kid' all the time. Now he's the boss of Daybreak, the leader of the Qing Clan Secret Intelligence Agency, and the next leader of Knight, Li Clan... He has so many titles!"

Zheng Yuandong couldn't help but curse as he spoke. Qing Chen's titles and positions are indeed a bit too many.

He continued, "For such a big shot, after obtaining honor and status, we at Kunlun should also learn to get along with him equally, even though he's only 18 years old in three months."

Ni Ergou nodded, "Don't worry, Boss, I understand. I was just casually mentioning it."

The Academy suddenly became lively, and the students spread the news to each other.

It's because of the Academy.

Students walking on the road were discussing enthusiastically, "Wow, as long as you climb a mountain, you can get 1000 points, and you can also get a set of products? These things together are worth thousands of points. Just the product that assists cultivation is something you can't buy even with points!"

"The announcement says that the time limit for the first level, the 10-meter cliff, is only two days. After 48 hours, the task will be cancelled. If you want to continue participating, you have to directly challenge the second level, 48 meters."

Now, all the students were anxious, rushing towards the small mountain to see what those mountains look like.

In the current situation of product scarcity, a task that simultaneously gives away three products is enough to motivate anyone.

Moreover, this task stipulates that only ordinary people can use the products, so those students who have exchanged the Myriad Gods Thunder Technique are excluded.

This means that out of more than 60,000 students, only more than 16,000 can participate.

For those ordinary students, this is undoubtedly great news.

Finally, there is a project that doesn't require competing with gods!

Last week, the semi-finals of basketball, soccer, tennis, and badminton matches have become a scene of gods fighting.

On the soccer field, someone kicked the soccer ball until it burst, someone kicked the goal net through. In one match, they changed ten balls, one net, and three goalkeepers.

On the badminton court, one smash, and the racket net was torn.

On the basketball court, free-throw line dunks can no longer satisfy everyone's aesthetic. There are gods trying center-line dunks everywhere. Ordinary people playing is like risking their lives, and everyone feels that they will die at any moment if they go up.

Therefore, these sporting events have shown the polarization in Time Traveler.

Now, there is one project specifically for ordinary Time Travelers, and everyone is very happy!

And this thing can't be cheated. As long as you have an exchange record of the Myriad Gods Thunder Technique in the Academy, you will be directly blocked.

Moreover, there are people specifically supervising. Once an Awakened One is found to participate, 50 points will be deducted.

Qing Chen's choice is not to favor ordinary people, but the Knight path can only be taken by ordinary people.

In the Inner World, the Knights who pass the Trial of Heart can become Demi-Gods after completing seven items, and there is no condition to complete the eighth item.

In the Outer World, the Knights who do not pass the Trial of Heart and do not use Breathing Techniques need to complete eight items in one go to directly transition from ordinary people to A-Class.

To take this Outer World path, one must endure loneliness and accept the reality of always being an ordinary person.

But undoubtedly, this is a mass-production Knight path!

How many Knights can be produced from more than 14,000 people? Qing Chen doesn't know the probability, but as long as 6 can be produced, everything he has done will be meaningful!

Qing Chen is not worried that those who have taken this path will not be united, because the ultimate faith of those who can take this path will be the same, without exception.

This is the strictest selection process in the world's organizations, requiring eight life-or-death experiences.

At this time, the ordinary students who had been depressed went crazy, rushing towards Qingshan Cliff.

But after arriving, everyone was desperate.

In front of them, the lowest mountain was 10 meters high, and it was a vertical cliff, requiring them to climb it with bare hands!

This is different from the indoor climbing projects. Those climbing projects at least have fixed footholds, but on this cliff, some places can only be held with half a fingertip. If you are not careful, you will fall down the mountain.

Moreover, the height of 10 meters sounds low, but it's actually very high, higher than a four-story building.

In the Olympic diving event, the highest is only a 10-meter platform.

Standing on the platform and looking down, the pool seems to have become smaller.

Next to the shortest mountain, there is a safety rope retractor materialized by Shinguji Maki, enough for more than 100 people to try climbing at the same time.

Students eagerly tied the safety rope to themselves. Little Seven and others checked the lock before they started climbing.

Then, these students immediately felt how difficult this challenge was.

These people, who usually struggle to do ten pull-ups, now need to use their fingers to exert force. Their arms started to tremble after climbing only two meters.

When they looked up again to see the distance to the top, they immediately gave up.

Someone finally climbed to eight meters, but found that there were no obvious footholds to climb further.

The climber accidentally fell backward, scaring them into a cold sweat.

The safety distance set by Qing Chen for the safety rope machine is also very strange. It requires the climbers to fall three meters before the safety rope starts to tighten.

That is to say, everyone who falls will experience a fright.

If the challenger hasn't climbed even three meters, they will fall directly to the ground.

Of course, don't panic if you get injured. Little Seven and others are there with ten baskets of Chicken Blood Bud collected over several days, ready to apply medicine for free if someone gets hurt.

Qing Chen's goal is to scare away those who are timid first.

It's a bit cruel, but it's very effective.

In front of the 10-meter cliff, batch after batch of people took turns to try. Some people failed, but they were still unwilling to give up, running to search for climbing tutorials.

Some people knew that their physical strength couldn't do it, so they gave up.

These people who gave up after only trying a little are not within Qing Chen's consideration. He needs the persistent, the brave, the fearless!

At this time, Chen Zhuoqu looked up at the cliff and suddenly remembered the Academy.

"Are you afraid? If you're afraid for one day, you'll be afraid for a lifetime."

When she saw this sentence, Chen Zhuoqu was still thinking that it was just a small 10-meter mountain, what was there to be afraid of.

But now she understands that it is really difficult to succeed.

This points-earning expert stood aside watching. First, she observed the climbing route, which route was easiest.

Then she chose position 1, which was the easiest with the most footholds.

This points-earning expert began to observe again, comparing her own strength and weight with those of others, to see if she had the ability to reach the top.

The conclusion was no. She would probably be exhausted at four meters. This was not her forte.

Chen Zhuoqu hesitated. She touched the two Eternal Heaven Fruit in her pocket. If she ate these two fruits, would she have enough strength?

It seems possible.

But the donor who successfully matched her sister's bone marrow transplant had offered a very high price in a private agreement. The other party was essentially selling bone marrow.

She still needed 6 million.

These two fruits can now be sold for 600,000. Her sister's surgery is next month. Chen Zhuoqu really needs the 600,000.

She may not be able to get Eternal Heaven Fruit every day. Even with points, she may not be able to get it, so each fruit is very important.

She had two choices.

One was to give up and continue saving money for her sister.

The other was to eat the fruit, but even if she had the strength, she might not succeed because climbing also requires skill.

Chen Zhuoqu thought for a while, and turned to walk away from the crowd.

But after walking two steps, she stopped again.

She didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Game masters know this: when you have a hellish challenge in front of you, there will always be the richest rewards at the end of the path.

"It doesn't matter if I have to work harder to earn points, it doesn't matter if I sleep at the entrance of the points exchange every day," Chen Zhuoqu gritted her teeth and ate both Eternal Heaven Fruit.

60 jin of strength flowed into her limbs like a warm current.

This was the first time she had eaten food exchanged with her own points.

Chen Zhuoqu tied her hair up with a rubber band and resolutely turned to line up.

She carefully fastened the safety rope and began to climb from climbing point 1.

However, it was more difficult than she imagined. Although her strength had increased significantly, at six meters, facing a slightly protruding rock wall, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't secure her position.

"No good," Chen Zhuoqu didn't grab the next foothold, and her whole body fell to the ground.

Her rapidly falling body made her feel the crisis of death. The next moment, the safety rope tightened, pulling her to hit the cliff hard.

With a thud, Chen Zhuoqu felt pain all over her right side.

Excruciating pain!

She realized that strength alone wasn't enough; skill was also necessary!

The machine slowly put her on the ground, Little Seven came over with a bamboo basket and handed her some Chicken Blood Bud, "Your right arm and leg are scratched. Chew them up and apply them."
