Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1085: Chapter 658: An Era Belonging to Knights (Part 2)

Qing Chen actually rebuilt a sheer green cliff on Whale Island!

He suddenly looked at the students still training in rock climbing in the distance, and he finally understood what Qing Chen was up to!

Holy crap!

Is this a selection for Knights?! And he’s selecting several, dozens, even dozens at a time!

Wait!

Kunlun so keen on these seedlings, so many actually came to participate in this selection, if the rest hadn’t already exchanged for God of Thunder, they might have come too!

“Damn it,” Lu Yuan was anxious: “This is competing with Kunlun for people.”

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

Everyone agreed that if Kyushu emerged to recruit people, Kunlun would send someone to follow them 24/7, preventing them from poaching and causing trouble.

But it turned out, the Kyushu members hadn’t come out of seclusion, and White Day had already taken action.

And it was a big move right away, determined to poach their best seedlings entirely.

Lu Yuan rubbed his hair hard: “What to do, we have to stop him! These are the best seedlings, Kunlun can’t just pick the leftovers from others!”

Xiao Ying said faintly: “How to stop it?”

Lu Yuan was stunned, yeah, how to stop it…

The prizes White Day offered were a set of Immortality, Zhi Lanxing, and Immortality for each person, and the things Kunlun had were all acquired from White Day.

How the hell to compete with White Day for people?

This time, Qing Chen made such a generous move that people couldn’t even believe it was real, and even the failed students went back saying it was the institute’s high-difficulty setup, with no intention of letting them get the reward.

But Lu Yuan knew, the truth wasn’t like that.

“Why doesn’t he recruit from those with the best cultivation talent,” Xiao Ying curiously said, “It’s illogical, we want these seedlings because they’re more determined, they can develop exceptional leadership and combat abilities after reaching a certain cultivation level, which a large organization needs. But White Day isn’t like that, they’ve always followed the elite route, why do they want so many mediocre students?”

Not to mention rare individuals like Chen Zhuoqu, the 16,000 students participating in the cliff selection were actually filtered through Kunlun’s ‘Meditation Map’ for mediocre cultivation aptitude, 98% were students from the Basic Institute.

So, what White Day was doing now seemed quite strange…

But what they didn’t know was, Qing Chen didn’t care whether these people had talent or not, the road to becoming a Knight was difficult, but it only cared about one’s character.

As long as you can complete the eight life-and-death thresholds, you will certainly reach the peak of A-Class, nothing can change this fact.

Lu Yuan stood in the night with a bitter face, no longer having the happy feeling of looking at seedlings earlier: “Damn it, I need to quickly go talk to the boss… the seedlings I had in hand got snatched!”

The two hurried away, Chen Zhuoqu was still climbing the cliff over and over.

Xiao Qi and others sat practicing in place, with Chicken Blood Sprout and magnesium powder placed in baskets for the students to use at will.

Xiao Qi would occasionally open his eyes to look at Chen Zhuoqu’s back, and only continue to practice after confirming she was alright.

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

No wonder even the rock-climbing experts in the institute couldn’t pass the test.

No wonder no one has succeeded yet.

Because the last meter of this 10-meter cliff had no path at all.

Chen Zhuoqu turned to look at other positions, but found the same situation, every last meter of the climbing routes was bare, with no place to leverage.

Moreover, upon careful observation, it was found that the last meter slightly protruded outward, once you try to climb normally, you would certainly fall.

She looked at other challengers and seemed to see someone facing the same predicament.

“Was it really not intended for anyone to pass?” Chen Zhuoqu panted and wondered.

No, the institute operates openly and honestly, definitely wouldn’t deceive students like this.

Chen Zhuoqu tried to climb up again, but without any leverage, she fell down.

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

The girl approached Xiao Qi: “Is the last meter intentionally set?”

Xiao Qi didn’t even open his eyes, nor did he say a word.

The parents instructed them not to interfere in any challenges faced by the students, everything must be done by the students themselves.

Seeing Xiao Qi not speaking, Chen Zhuoqu didn’t say much either, she turned again, heading for the cliff.

Xiao Qi opened his eyes with a grin, this girl was quite spirited.

Interesting.

Chen Zhuoqu climbed again and again, but no matter how she tried to adjust the angle, her arms couldn’t reach that meter’s distance.

The cliff’s edge seemed like a finish line she could never touch.

Until the darkest dawn before daybreak.

The gray-white sky faintly illuminated the cliff.

At this moment, Chen Zhuoqu, who returned to the ninth meter of the cliff, suddenly saw a line of small words carved above her head: “Life should be like a candle, burning bright from start to finish.”

Those were the words Qing Chen once saw, also the words that gave all Knights strength, right on the last meter of the green cliff.

Staring above her head, Chen Zhuoqu suddenly took a deep breath and leaped upward!

Her right hand caught the edge of the cliff, but her left hand slipped and fell unsteadily.
