Night’s Nomenclature

Before the 48-meter cliff.

"Excuse me, could you move aside?" A male student said to Hu Jingyi, who was in line.

Hu Jingyi was stunned. He hadn't realized what was going on: "What's wrong?"

The male student said: "The 48-meter cliff is for those who have successfully completed the challenge. Your spirit is commendable, but you can't affect our challenges. This cliff has 100 climbing points, and there are only 4 of us who have successfully completed the challenge, which is not enough to share. Now you're here to compete for positions, which is unfair to us."

Hu Jingyi stood there, dumbfounded.

He also thought the other party was right. He could continue to challenge himself with the spirit of winning once, but the problem was that those who could succeed were already short on time, and they would indeed take up other people's time.

At this time, some other students complained: "Yeah, why don't you go train somewhere else? You can go to the third level. Train there for a couple of days and then come back to complete the challenge."

Hu Jingyi fell silent. He looked in Little Seven's direction, but found that the other party had disappeared at some point and didn't know where they had gone.

That's right, it's impossible to rely on others for everything.

Rock climbing is not a simple sport. If Qing Chen hadn't had the guidance of the magnesium powder, it would have taken him two days just to familiarize himself with the route on Qingshan Cliff.

As he was thinking, another student said: "Why don't you just give up and run for points to exchange for the Myriad Gods Thunder Technique instead?"

The seven students who failed the challenge felt a surge of anger after hearing these words.

However, Hu Jingyi silently turned and walked towards the third cliff: "It's okay, I understand everyone. I'll go practice on the other side."

But at this moment,

Chen Zhuoqu suddenly asked: "Did you fail?"

This question stumped Hu Jingyi.

Chen Zhuoqu continued: "In this challenge, as long as you don't die, it doesn't count as a complete failure, so you are still challengers. Remember what Brother Little Seven said? If you're not dead, keep moving forward."

Having said this, Chen Zhuoqu suddenly looked at everyone, then pointed to the 48-meter cliff and said: "According to the rules, this second cliff is not for the successful, but for all those who haven't given up. So you have no right to ask them to leave. As long as they are still alive and willing to stand in front of this cliff, they haven't lost. Each of us suffered a lot in front of the first level. Now that we see these bruised classmates who haven't given up, we should admire them."

The challengers fell silent. Someone retorted: "They can't even pass the first level. Isn't challenging the second level a waste of time?"

This made sense. Many people echoed: "Giving up early is also good for them. There's really no need to waste time here."

Chen Zhuoqu got angry: "You're too selfish! Among everyone here, I should be the one who wants to win the most, but I would never say what you just said!"

A student echoed: "I don't think they are different from us. We are all fellow travelers on this road, comrades fighting side by side. I agree that they should stay."

"I agree too!"

A tall and burly male student laughed: "I agree too! What the hell, it's just a challenge, but you're making it into palace intrigue! Even in a challenge, you're so anxious to exclude your classmates. What if you're fighting side by side someday? You'll be betrayed by you! Brother Hu Jingyi, I've admired you for a long time. My name is Zhang Hubao. Nice to meet you."

"My name is Liang Mengshun. Nice to meet you."

"My name is Ye Han. Nice to meet you."

"My name is Zhang Junli. Nice to meet you."

More and more people voiced their support for Hu Jingyi, which left Hu Jingyi somewhat at a loss.

He remained silent for a moment, then smiled at everyone and said: "Thank you all. But let's go train on the third cliff. It's okay, training there is not bad either. In the worst case, we can directly challenge the third level. In that case, we'll have trained 48 more hours than you. By then, our proficiency will be higher than yours."

This stunned even Chen Zhuoqu. She never expected this guy to be so good at comforting himself.

Chen Zhuoqu said: "He's a bit clumsy, but he's quite open-minded and optimistic."

Hu Jingyi was stunned for a long time, not knowing whether this remark was praise or criticism.

Before he could react, Little Seven walked over from afar: "Wonderful."

Xiao Wu expressionlessly pointed at several people: "You, you, you, you, come out."

He actually pointed at forty people!

Those students were a little panicked. They had dared to exclude their classmates because Little Seven and Xiao Wu were not around.

Unexpectedly, Little Seven and the others seemed to have been waiting for this situation, so they could eliminate those students who weren't very kind-hearted.

Little Seven chuckled: "The forty of you participated in excluding classmates. When I was in school, I hated people like you. Get lost! Your challenge qualifications are canceled. Also, minus 0 points for each of you."

The forty students slunk away. They were not stupid enough to challenge Little Seven. Judging from Little Seven's daily Purple Orchid Star Cultivation, he could probably punch them to death.

As the forty students left, Little Seven turned back: "Don't be stunned. You don't have much time left."

The students were still a little dazed. No one expected that Little Seven would eliminate forty people in one go!

This elimination rate was too high!

Little Seven chuckled: "What? Do you think I'm too extreme?"

Chen Zhuoqu thought for a moment and said: "No, it's just that I feel a little sorry for them."

Little Seven thought for a moment and said: "There are 101 of you here. In the future, you will all be fighting side by side. Understand what I mean? If I don't kick these people out now, they will kill you all in the future. If I were you, I would feel lucky because before you even go to the battlefield, you have already stayed away from those who might kill you. Remember, everyone who stays must be someone you can trust. On this road, there can be smart people taking shortcuts, or clumsy people making up for their shortcomings with hard work, but there can be no harmful elements. Okay, hurry up and train."

"Don't rush! We need to allocate the challenge time," Chen Zhuoqu suddenly said: "There are only 100 challenge positions on the 48-meter cliff. Although it's more than the first level, we still have to queue and wait to take turns training. This greatly reduces the time efficiency, and many people will be exhausted while waiting."

At the bottom of the 48-meter cliff, the challengers listened silently.

They also discovered this problem, but they didn't bring it up like Chen Zhuoqu did, and they hadn't figured out what to do.

At this time, Chen Zhuoqu said: "I plan to divide everyone into two groups, one in the daytime and one at night. This way, after training is staggered, everyone can use the time when they can't train to rest and recuperate."

"How do we allocate?" A challenger curiously asked: "Who's at night and who's during the day? Those at night seem to be at a disadvantage."

"Draw lots, that's the fairest," Chen Zhuoqu said: "Those who train at night are at a disadvantage. On the one hand, they need to adjust to the time difference, and on the other hand, the lighting is dim at night, and visibility is lower. Therefore, the night training time is 1 hour, and the daytime training is 11 hours. It's 8 o'clock now. 11 hours from now is 7 pm. The night group will start then."

Everyone looked at each other. For a moment, they couldn't think of any other way.

But before they could say anything, Chen Zhuoqu suddenly looked at Hu Jingyi: "You guys should also participate in the drawing."

Hu Jingyi nodded silently.

At this time, a challenger suddenly said: "But there are 101 of us, and there are only 100 challenge positions. There's one extra person, which is difficult to allocate."

Now, everyone was at a loss.

Chen Zhuoqu thought for a moment and said: "Wait for me for a moment."

Speaking, Chen Zhuoqu actually tied a safety rope to herself in full view of everyone.

"Wait a minute, what is the roll king trying to do?" A challenger said in astonishment.

As they were thinking, they saw Chen Zhuoqu already climbing towards the top of the 48-meter cliff, her movements more skillful and steady than others.

Chen Zhuoqu completed the challenge early, so she had the most rest time. While others were still watching, she had already started training on the second level, so she also figured out the most suitable route earlier than others.

And the most crucial thing was that Chen Zhuoqu had some advantages. As the first student to complete the challenge, she received double the reward, which meant she had already eaten 4 Eternal Heaven Fruit.

Chen Zhuoqu only weighed 9 jin, and the 4 Eternal Heaven Fruit increased her strength by 10 jin, which was decisive for her.

Now, only physical strength and endurance, and the process of familiarizing herself with the climbing route, could limit her.

You must know that Qingshan Cliff is 600 meters high. Even F-Class Gene Soldiers would be exhausted without willpower to support them. They are completely different concepts.

At this moment, the challengers stood at the bottom of the 48-meter cliff, looking up at this female roll king climbing up like a gecko.

More than ten minutes later, everyone saw Chen Zhuoqu reach the last meter of the cliff top, and then easily leaped up and grabbed the edge of the cliff.

That's 48 meters! A small high-rise building of more than ten floors is about this high. Just looking at the top of the cliff, everyone felt their necks were a little sore.

This female roll king completed the challenge just like that.

Chen Zhuoqu said breathlessly: "You guys draw lots. I'll challenge the third level. Is that enough?"

On the cliff, this roll king said the cruelest words in the whole arena in the most embarrassing posture.

The challengers looked at Chen Zhuoqu as if they were looking at a god.

Or, like they had been abused countless times by the BOSS in a single-player game, and a certain streamer suddenly completed the game without taking any damage.

Is this the legendary high-level player? No wonder she can become the most powerful points runner in the Academy.

This isn't just a roll king, she's the king of kings!

"Wow," Hu Jingyi said, dumbfounded.

Even Little Seven looked up speechlessly: "Awesome!"

Xiao Wu: ""

They only felt that their vocabulary was suddenly insufficient and they didn't know how to describe their admiration.

Hu Jingyi and Chen Zhuoqu were like two extremes of life. The former had never won, while the latter had never lost.

Chen Zhuoqu, secured with a safety rope, descended from the cliff. The first thing she did was find Little Seven and extend her hand.

"What?" Little Seven didn't react.

Chen Zhuoqu said: "The reward for the second level. I was the first, so it's double."

This female roll king suddenly became a money-grubber again. Little Seven looked at her, and even felt that she was already calculating in her head what kind of villa she should buy for her family after selling the new Purple Orchid Star.

Little Seven handed over the reward with mixed feelings, and Chen Zhuoqu immediately ate the two Eternal Heaven Fruit and turned towards the third cliff.

"Chen Zhuoqu!"

From afar, someone called out the roll king's name.

Everyone turned to look, and it was Jiu Ran, the most famous leader of the Red Leaf organization on campus.

This 1.8-meter-tall girl with a particularly well-proportioned figure slowly walked over. Her hair had just reached her chin, looking particularly capable.

There was also a strange man beside her.

"Chen Zhuoqu, can we talk for a moment?" Jiu Ran said calmly: "This person beside me is Yu Cheng, one of the directors of Nine Provinces. He wants to talk to you."

Actually, Nine Provinces' plan was to wait for Chen Zhuoqu to return to the dormitory, avoid the people from Daybreak, and chat privately.

As a result, Chen Zhuoqu was too focused on her studies; she didn't return to the dormitory for a whole day and night. When she was tired, she would lie down on the cliff.

There was no way, they couldn't wait, so they could only come to find her.

Chen Zhuoqu glanced at Yu Cheng: "What do you want to talk about?"

Yu Cheng glanced at Little Seven and said straight to the point: "We want to invite you to join Nine Provinces."

"What are the benefits?" Chen Zhuoqu asked.

Yu Cheng answered: "The orthodox Cultivation method of the Hu Family Intelligence Agency, leading directly to the Demi-God realm. You can control swords and slay gods."

Little Seven chuckled. How long has it been since the Hu Family Intelligence Agency produced a Demi-God? More than a hundred years, right? What are you bragging about?

But he didn't say anything more. Daybreak, Nine Provinces, and Kunlun are currently cooperating. Face must be given to brother units.

But it's a bit inappropriate for you, Nine Provinces, to poach people in front of Daybreak.

But at this moment, Jiu Ran suddenly said: "Hello everyone, I am Jiu Ran from Red Leaf. I'm also here to tell everyone that it's your freedom to join any organization after successfully completing this challenge. If the challengers have nowhere to go, you can come to Nine Provinces anytime. The doors of Nine Provinces are always open to you."

Little Seven understood. Actually, Nine Provinces' real target was not outstanding students like Chen Zhuoqu. They actually knew they couldn't compete with Daybreak, so they wanted to secure all the failed challengers before Kunlun made a move.

After all, everyone saw the challengers' mentality. Even if they failed, they were still talented.

But what Nine Provinces didn't know was that they thought Daybreak only wanted successful candidates, but in reality, Qing Chen wanted everything.

As they spoke, Nangong Yuanyu ran over with a stack of documents: "Here, all challengers, please fill out this form."

Yu Cheng and Jiu Ran looked at each other.

Chen Zhuoqu came back and curiously asked: "What is this?"

"Oh, it's a transfer application form," Little Seven chuckled: "No matter which Academy you were from before, but now you all have the opportunity to join the Agricultural Academy. You may not know this, but the Agricultural Academy is very picky about recruiting people. Ordinary people can't get in. Now it's good. The dean will give every student here a chance. As long as you apply, you will definitely pass! Then, you will all be members of our Agricultural Academy!"

Qing Chen made his move.

Among these challengers, apart from a few outstanding individuals like Chen Zhuoqu, most of them were similar to Hu Jingyi.

They had never been valued.

But in this challenge, Qing Chen allowed these 101 students to stand out.

He allowed Kunlun, Nine Provinces, and the students to see the resolute character of these people.

Since everyone has seen it, someone will definitely come to poach them.

Although Qing Chen confirmed that he was stronger than Kunlun and Nine Provinces in terms of Cultivation resources, who knows what Boss He and Boss Zheng, these old foxes, will do?

Therefore, following the principle of being cautious and making things last for ten thousand years, Qing Chen decided to get these people into the Agricultural Academy first.

He knew that the subsequent cliff challenges would eliminate most people, but these people would definitely be qualified to be messengers.

If they can't be Knights, then they can be messengers. As long as their character is good, what kind of Cultivation speed is a problem? With so many family members, it's not a waste of time to give them advanced training to C-Class and B-Class.

After all, the number of Knights has suddenly increased sharply, and messengers are really a little insufficient.

It's impossible for ten Knights to get together and decide who gets a messenger using rock-paper-scissors in the future.

The standard of one Knight per messenger should still exist!

At this moment, the students looked at each other in astonishment. They didn't expect the topic to suddenly turn to transferring schools.

Little Seven patiently said: "No matter whether you are in the basic Academy, the science and technology Academy, or the extraordinary Academy, you have to go to class if you are still a student, right? But it's different in the Agricultural Academy. You don't have to do anything for the time being. You can concentrate on completing the challenge. Moreover, you can get 0 points for doing nothing every day. This is a treatment that other Academies don't have."

The students continued to look at each other. Little Seven hit their pain point.

Today is a school day. Everyone escaped class to complete the challenge. Skipping one class will deduct five points. It's fine if someone helps to call in, but if no one helps, none of the challengers can handle it.

Yu Cheng spoke: "You all know the status of Nine Provinces in China and internationally. Joining Nine Provinces can allow you to step onto a larger stage."

As he spoke, Little Seven and Xiao Wu each took out a handful of Eternal Heaven Fruit from their pockets and threw them into their mouths like cherries.

As they ate, they said: "There aren't any fruit trees on the island. We'll make a request to the Academy later to send some fruit to our Agricultural Academy every day, otherwise, we won't be able to keep up with our vitamins."

Yu Cheng: "???"

The students' eyes widened.

What kind of family background is this? Eating Eternal Heaven Fruit as fruit?!

After eating nine of them, it's ineffective. Aren't you wasting resources by eating them as fruit?

But Little Seven and Xiao Wu didn't care. The task they received from the Leader was to try their best to get these two hundred or so people into the Agricultural Academy.

Yu Cheng felt terrible. Everyone normally competes for members, but you're cheating from the start. What does it mean?

Can money do anything?

Little Seven's expression was very arrogant. Yu Cheng even heard hallucinations in his mind: Yes, money can do anything.

"I want to apply to join the Agricultural Academy!" Chen Zhuoqu decisively took a form from Little Seven and turned to fill it out.

When everyone saw even Chen Zhuoqu, this roll king, joining, what else could they say?

The name of Nine Provinces is indeed very loud, but is there anything wrong with following the roll king's choice?

"I'm joining too!"

"I'm joining too!"

Little Seven smiled as he watched everyone grab the forms.

After Chen Zhuoqu filled out the form, she looked at Little Seven: "Actually, you underestimated the attraction of the Agricultural Academy. Even without that performance just now, we would still rush to join. Now, as long as you're not an idiot, you can understand that the Agricultural Academy is very special because it has a very special dean."

Hu Jingyi and others were stunned. They whispered to each other: "Chen Zhuoqu seems to know who the dean of the Agricultural Academy is? Why don't we know?"

A student nearby said faintly: "Maybe we are the idiots Chen Zhuoqu mentioned. But being called an idiot by the roll king doesn't make me feel ashamed at all."

Chen Zhuoqu's roll is something that even other successful challengers have accepted. It's really too focused on her studies.

Little Seven took away the transfer forms. From now on, these 101 students are the Agricultural Academy's own children. Nine Provinces and Kunlun want to snatch them? No way!

These people, regardless of whether they succeed in the challenge in the future, will become the strongest force under the Knight Order.
