Night’s Nomenclature

Chen Zhuoqu stood up stubbornly, pursing her lips: "Can I try again?"

Little Seven looked at her unexpectedly: "Yes, but you have to queue up, there are many people waiting behind you. Doesn't it hurt?"

Chen Zhuoqu didn't answer the question of whether it hurt or not, but suddenly asked, "Can we train here at night?"

The first level only lasts 48 hours, which means that if she temporarily goes to earn points and buy Eternal Heaven Fruit, she may not have enough time.

So she must race against time.

She made a judgment: her strength is already enough, she needs to train her skills repeatedly, and she must use the time when no one is around at night.

Little Seven laughed when he heard her question: "Of course, no one will stop you, as long as you are not afraid of pain or fatigue, you can train as you like."

"Thank you," Chen Zhuoqu turned and walked to the side to watch the rock climbing tutorial without saying another word.

Little Seven scratched the back of his head. Usually, people at this time would say some harsh words, such as "I'm not afraid", "I can", "I will never give up", etc., as if they were afraid that others would not believe them.

To be honest, he kind of liked this girl. This is a girl he couldn't find even if he drove a Porsche 911 outside of school.

At this moment, Qing Chen was watching from the crowd.

Xiao Wu saw many people giving up and leaving, so he whispered, "Leader"

Qing Chen glanced at him but didn't correct the address.

Xiao Wu immediately beamed with joy: "Leader, why don't I pretend to be an ordinary person and climb once, and then you publicly reward me, stimulating them to let them know that the reward is real. In this way, more people will stay."

But Qing Chen shook his head: "No need, I want to see who the first batch of people who persevere are."

What this road needs are companions, and every companion must learn to endure loneliness on this lonely road.

Today, he saw many cowards shrink back because of pain and difficulties.

But he also saw many lonely backs.

That's what he needed, and what the Knight Order needed.

Qing Chen is very clear about one thing:

Why do those old guys in Forbidden Zone 00 only favor him?

The old guys who haven't been involved in worldly affairs for hundreds of years openly helped him with the power of Forbidden Zone, isn't it because they want to see this scene?

Restore the glory of Knight ancestors—that Knight Order that can fight in groups!

And Qing Chen's ambition is not to restore the twelve Knights of the ancestors. If it only stops there, he is still living under the glory of his ancestors.

He can't be considered the master of the revival of the Knights.

Night falls.

Chen Zhuoqu was still in front of the first cliff, constantly watching the rock climbing tutorial. Every time she saw the details, she would keep replaying it, deepening her impression in her mind.

She looked up at the cliff, where nearly a thousand people were constantly trying and queuing up, and Little Seven was constantly injecting Chicken Blood Bud.

No one has successfully reached the summit.

Under such circumstances, even though they know there is a safety rope to protect them from falling to death, more than 10,000 people are left with only more than a thousand.

Chen Zhuoqu didn't queue up, but continued to watch the video. When she was tired, she lay down on the lawn and took a nap to conserve her energy.

For this kind of game master, the best thing is to allocate resources. Now, time is her resource.

Instead of queuing up and wasting time like others, it's better to conserve energy and wait until no one is around at night so she can practice more without queuing.

1 a.m.

Chen Zhuoqu looked around. There were more than a hundred people, all planning to do the same thing as her.

Now the cliff is finally no longer queued up, she got up and walked slowly.

The girl rubbed her still sore arm, her expression full of stubbornness.

Lu Yuan and Little Eagle came to the cliff. He looked at the more than 100 students left, and a sudden feeling arose in his heart.

16,000 people participated, and after just one hour, only 18 people were left.

This elimination rate is terrifying.

And this is just the first level.

Little Eagle said beside him: "Being able to leave more than a hundred people is already very good. I used to think that these students were flowers in a greenhouse. Now I didn't expect that there are still some who are hardworking. Look at the wounds on their bodies, they're bloody."

Lu Yuan smiled: "Those who are still in front of the cliff at this time are all good seedlings. Have you all registered them down?"

Little Eagle said: "Yeah, they're all written down. These people have a high degree of overlap with the group who ran in the morning exercises. I just checked the data and found that among the 18 people who are still training now, 91 of them are those who go for morning exercises every day."

Lu Yuan nodded: "The strong will always be strong. It's not a wealthy family or a starting line at the finish line that makes them strong, but the courage and determination to run to the finish line, which is good."

At this time, Little Eagle curiously asked: "But this cliff seems particularly difficult. Until now, no one has passed. I heard that there are two students who are good at rock climbing, but they also failed. Qing Chen spent a lot of money on this, I don't know what he wants to do?"

Lu Yuan suddenly thought of something and fell silent.

He quickly walked towards the tallest cliff. Lu Yuan had drunk Jingshan Tea, and then, at the foot of the mountain, he saw the inscription on the mountainside from afar.

19 meters, Zhang Sheng left.

At this moment, Lu Yuan knew what was in front of him. This is Qingshan Cliff!

Qing Chen actually rebuilt a Qingshan Cliff on Whale Island!

He suddenly looked at the students who were still training in rock climbing in the distance, and he finally knew what Qing Chen was going to do!

Damn it!

This is selecting Knights?! And he's going to pick several, dozens, or even dozens at once!

Wait!

Kunlun has so many seedlings, and so many of them came to participate in this selection. If it weren't for the fact that they had already redeemed the Myriad Gods Thunder Technique, they might have come too!

"This damn," Lu Yuan was anxious: "This is snatching people from Kunlun."

They had previously made plans to defend against Nine Provinces, after all, He Jinqiu and others were in seclusion on Whale Island.

Everyone had discussed that if Nine Provinces came out to poach people, Kunlun would send people to follow Nine Provinces for 4 hours to prevent them from poaching people and causing trouble.

As a result, the members of Nine Provinces had not yet left seclusion, and Daybreak had already taken action.

And as soon as they made a move, it was a big move, insisting on digging away all their best seedlings.

Lu Yuan rubbed his hair vigorously: "What should we do? We have to stop him! These are all the best seedlings. Kunlun, we can't just pick the ones that others have left behind, can we?"

Little Eagle sighed softly: "How do you stop him?"

Lu Yuan was stunned. Yes, how to stop him?

The prizes offered by Daybreak are a set of Longevity Fruits, Purple Orchid Stars, and Eternal Heaven Fruits per person. The things in Kunlun's hands are all obtained from Daybreak.

How can we compete with Daybreak for people?

This time, Qing Chen's first move was extremely generous, so generous that people didn't even believe it was true. Some failed students went back and said that this was a high-difficulty setting by the Academy, and they never intended for them to receive the rewards.

But Lu Yuan knows that's not the truth.

"Why doesn't he dig from those with the best Cultivation talent?" Little Eagle wondered, "This doesn't make sense. We want these seedlings because they are more determined. After Cultivation reaches a certain level, they can have extraordinary command and combat abilities, which is what a large organization needs. But Daybreak is not like that. They have always followed the elite route. Why do they want so many students with mediocre qualifications?"

Not to mention Chen Zhuoqu, such a small probability individual, the 16,000 students participating in the cliff selection are actually Cultivation students with mediocre qualifications screened out by Kunlun's meditation map, 98% of whom are basic Academy students.

Therefore, what Daybreak is doing now will seem very strange.

But what they don't know is that Qing Chen doesn't care whether these people have talent or not. The Knight path is difficult, but it only cares about temperament.

As long as you can complete the Eight Trials of Life and Death, you will definitely be at the peak of A-Class, and this will not be changed by anything.

Lu Yuan stood in the night with a bitter face, no longer in the happy mood of looking at the seedlings just now: "This damn it, I have to hurry and find the boss to talk about the seedlings I've got being robbed!"

The two left hurriedly, and Chen Zhuoqu was still climbing the cliff again and again.

Little Seven and others sat on the ground Cultivating, Chicken Blood Bud and magnesium powder were placed in bamboo baskets, allowing the students to use them.

Little Seven would occasionally open his eyes to look at Chen Zhuoqu's back, and only when he saw that she was fine would he continue to close his eyes and Cultivate.

At this time, Chen Zhuoqu finally climbed to the nine-meter position for the first time, then froze.

No wonder even the rock climbing experts in the Academy couldn't pass the test.

No wonder no one has succeeded yet.

Because the last meter of this 10-meter cliff simply has no path.

Chen Zhuoqu turned to look at other positions, and the result was the same. The last meter of all rock climbing positions was bare, with no place to borrow force.

Moreover, careful observation will reveal that the last meter is slightly protruding outwards. Once you want to climb normally, you will definitely fall down.

She looked at other challengers, and some seemed to have encountered the same predicament as her.

"Is it really not intended to let anyone pass?" Chen Zhuoqu asked breathlessly.

No, the Academy acts openly and honestly, and it would never pit students like this.

Chen Zhuoqu tried to climb up again, but she fell down because she couldn't find a place to borrow force.

She was suspended by the safety rope and hit the cliff heavily, then slowly descended.

The girl came to Little Seven: "Is the last meter deliberately set up?"

Little Seven didn't even open his eyes, and didn't say a word.

The Leader had instructed that they must not interfere with the students' challenges, and everything must be done by the students themselves.

Seeing that Little Seven didn't speak, Chen Zhuoqu didn't say anything more and turned back to the cliff.

Little Seven opened his eyes happily. This girl is quite sassy.

Interesting.

Chen Zhuoqu climbed again and again, but no matter how she tried to adjust her angle, her arms couldn't cross that one-meter distance.

The upper edge of the cliff was like an endpoint she could never reach.

Until the darkest dawn before daybreak.

The grayish-white sky slightly lit up the cliff.

At this time, Chen Zhuoqu, who came to the ninth meter of the cliff again, suddenly saw a small line of words engraved on the cliff above her head: "Life should be like a candle, bright from beginning to end."

Those were the words Qing Chen had seen, and the words that had given all the Knights strength, were on the last meter of Qingshan Cliff.

Chen Zhuoqu looked up, suddenly took a deep breath, and leaped!

She grabbed the edge of the cliff with her right hand, but her left hand slipped accidentally.

The first ray of morning sun shone from the horizon, and Chen Zhuoqu felt that her life had never been so joyful.

However, at this time, she heard footsteps above her head.

The girl looked up and saw Qing Chen standing above calmly saying: "Congratulations, Little Seven will distribute your reward. I want to remind you to restrain your inner desires and not Cultivate privately, because you may be able to take another better path. Don't be too happy, this road has just begun."

After saying that, Qing Chen turned and left.

Chen Zhuoqu quickly climbed to the top of the cliff with her hands and feet, staring blankly at Qing Chen walking away.

Qing Chen didn't use any disguise, so she knew that was the Boss of Daybreak.

Chen Zhuoqu sat on the cliff, exhausted, and looked down, only to see Little Seven, who had refused to talk to her just now, standing up and smiling at her.

There will be a second person after the first person who reaches the summit. They saw Chen Zhuoqu's leap and understood the truth hidden in the last meter.

When the sun rose, 107 of the 18 students finally succeeded in reaching the summit, and the remaining one probably understood something, they turned around without hesitation and returned to the dormitory to sleep, preparing to re-challenge the next night.

But what they didn't know was that the real last meter had no safety rope.

And this day, which they thought was thrilling, would be insignificant when they looked back in the future.

As Qing Chen said, these people's paths have just begun.

Countdown 64:00:00.

At 8 a.m., the Academy was already bustling.

The students who were still sleeping in the dormitory area were awakened by the heated discussions in the corridor. Those students who had trained all night finally returned to the dormitory and excitedly talked about how they completed the first cliff challenge.

The students woke up, opened their dormitory doors, and saw the successful ones with wounds all over their bodies, but holding fruits, tea, and Purple Orchid Stars.

Yesterday, some people were still saying on the forum that the Academy was cheating, and no one could complete the challenge, especially the two rock climbing enthusiasts who came forward to say that there was no path to the top of the cliff, and they couldn't climb up.

However, after one night, successful people came out to slap their faces.

The rewards are really given!

And a whole set is really given!

By the way, there are also 00 points!

The students were boiling, one by one like they had been injected with chicken blood, saying that they must succeed in the challenge today!

Everyone's enthusiasm has been rekindled.

At this time, Chen Zhuoqu had just eaten the Eternal Heaven Fruit given by Little Seven. Little Seven gave two, saying that it was a special reward for the first place, so this is the third and fourth she had eaten.

Jingshan Tea was still brewing in the dormitory, the room was full of the aroma of tea.

She sat on the bed in a daze, looking at the brilliant Purple Orchid Star in her hand. Is this the item that can assist Cultivation?

But, since the item was given, why did the Master of Daybreak say that those who passed the challenge cannot Cultivate? Isn't giving this thing redundant?

Wait, could it be that giving this thing is to let everyone exchange money to guarantee their lives?

Should I sell it or not? If the subsequent challenges fail, keeping the Purple Orchid Star is also a way out. If Qing Chen's path doesn't work, she might be able to take other paths with the Purple Orchid Star.

But

Why does life need so many ways out?

Chen Zhuoqu made a phone call: "Hello, are you still buying things?"

A student laughed on the phone: "Tea or fruit? Don't worry, we'll buy as much as you have. There are many students waiting here."

"What I want to sell is the Purple Orchid Star," Chen Zhuoqu said.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and after a long time, someone suddenly asked: "Did you pass that training? Wait"

"Yeah," Chen Zhuoqu said: "I was the first to pass."

"I'll pay 5 million," said the rich second generation on the other end of the phone.

Chen Zhuoqu calmly said: "6 million, not a cent less. You also know that this is the first Cultivation item to circulate among the public. The previous ones have already been bought by Matrix, Masonic Lodge, and Red Leaf. Their people take turns queuing up all night, and you can't grab them. I know you are starting a club, and getting this item can also prove the strength of your club and attract more elite students."

There was another silence on the other end of the phone: "Deal, are you in the dormitory? I'll transfer the money now."

Purple Orchid Star, this kind of thing that is difficult to exchange even with team points, is too precious for those rich second generations who want to embark on the Cultivation path.

Moreover, it's the first batch to circulate among the public.

My sister is saved.

Chen Zhuoqu hung up the phone. For some reason, she only felt that her destiny seemed to have changed from today.

However, she wasn't happy. Instead, she kept typing on her phone and then clicked send.

A paid strategy appeared on the Academy website.

This strategy describes her process and skills in challenging the 10-meter cliff, including how to use her body to position three points, such as how to save energy and how to jump over the last meter.

She knew that even if other students saw this strategy, it would be difficult for them to succeed in the challenge.

But it doesn't matter, this strategy and the reputation of being the first challenger can make her money, as for whether others succeed or not, what does it have to do with her?

At this moment, Qing Chen was lying on a chair in the Agricultural Academy, posting on a small account: "Wow, there really are rewards! Today I must succeed in the challenge. If I don't succeed, I won't sleep! Everyone, let's go together!"

Then he replied with another small account: "Me too!"

Qing Chen scrolled through the posts and laughed. Kunlun and Nine Provinces want to compete with him for people? No way, you can only pick the ones left behind by Daybreak.

The next second, he suddenly saw Chen Zhuoqu's paid strategy and immediately laughed: "It does have a bit of a Knight's style."

He suddenly thought of the time when his master Li Shutong took him to the boxing gym to make money.

The most glorious era of the Knights is about to come.

Shadow told Chen Yu to go back and linger, waiting for an era belonging to Qing Chen to come.

My brother has said this, so Qing Chen must do it.
