Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1088: Chapter 659: If You Can’t Die, Keep Moving Forward! (Part 2)

The injured student breathed a sigh of relief, “Thank you.”

At the academy, points equal cultivation resources, and it’s not unheard of for brothers to fall out over points.

Some couples even break up because of points.

Now, anyone willing to run out and lend points at 4 AM is truly showing love.

Someone curiously asked them, “How long have you been training? It’s 4 AM right now, have you been training without rest?”

“There’s no time left, only 4 hours remain,” a student explained, “Even though we’re very tired… it’s not time to give up yet.”

This statement stunned those at the front of the line. Some were students who had failed the challenge, while others had already redeemed the God of Thunder.

But seeing these thirty-two injured students standing there, something suddenly struck everyone deep inside.

Someone asked them again, “Is it worth it, getting yourselves into this state…”

An injured student chewed on a Chicken Blood Sprout, applying it to his arm while saying, “We are not like you. We were placed in the Basic Institute due to lack of talent during the entrance exam. Some people had to sell fruit to supplement their family income to earn points; some tried running for points, but only ever managed to get 2 comfort points each time; and two students were too dumb to grasp the God of Thunder’s breathing rhythm, and then their points were returned by the institute’s professors…”

Running for points has both its glamorous and bitter sides. Some students join football games, only to be crushed by Immortals, ending up exhausted after 90 minutes with only 2 comfort points.

Not everyone can become a points-running master like Chen Zhuoqu; otherwise, Chen Zhuoqu wouldn’t catch the attention of both Kunlun and Kyushu.

That student looked up at the people in front and said, “We didn’t think about whether it’s worth it. We just don’t know how else we can stand out. Now we have a hope, we must at least try, right?”

The students at the front of the line were silent.

The academy has over sixty thousand people, initially with forty-five thousand in the Basic Institute and over seventeen thousand in the Institute of Technology and Extraordinary Institute.

Then the God of Thunder could be redeemed, and the number of students in the Extraordinary Institute exploded, while the remaining students in the Basic Institute were like left-behind children, waiting to save enough points to exchange for God of Thunder.

But now, it seems like there’s another path specifically for Ordinary People; those unwilling to give up wouldn’t miss it, they have to fight desperately.

These ordinary students, some with only a little over a hundred points in total, now the best choice is to exchange for Immortal Heaven Fruits and continue to challenge the cliff.

At this moment, someone asked the injured student, “Brother, what’s your name?”

The injured student smiled and said, “My name is Hu Jingyi.”

As he spoke, the bleeding on his arm had just stopped.

The students in the front no longer remained silent, someone suddenly said loudly, “Today, let’s not rush to exchange, we’re not in a hurry for just this day, but they only have four hours left. I propose that everyone makes some space, let these brothers and sisters first exchange for the Immortality they need, shall we?”

A boy laughed cheerfully, “Sure, why not. After all, we’re not in a hurry, let’s all step aside and let these brothers and sisters move forward!”

Hu Jingyi was stunned, “Isn’t this inappropriate.”

A girl smiled and said, “What’s inappropriate, we’re all classmates at the same academy, in both the Inner World and the Outer World, we should help each other. We can exchange goods anytime, but the time left for you is not much. Don’t worry, we’re not in a rush.”

Hu Jingyi was taken aback, how could they not be in a hurry? After all, anyone queuing at 4 AM must carry the ‘top scorer’ mindset, right?

Those not in a hurry are sleeping in their dormitories.

Yet, these students all put on a completely indifferent act, clearing the way.

“Thank you,” Hu Jingyi slowly made his way through the crowd, and for some reason, the loneliness he felt facing the cliff suddenly disappeared.

Strangely warm.

“Thank you all,” Hu Jingyi and others expressed sincere gratitude.

“No need to be so formal,” someone laughed, “Good luck, we are heading back to sleep!”

Hu Jingyi watched these classmates put their arms around each other’s shoulders and leave, chatting and laughing, suddenly understanding the purpose of Kunlun establishing this academy.

In the past, Time Travelers were always fighting on their own, suspicious of each other, with no foundation of trust.

But now, it seems everything is slowly getting better.

At this moment, the door to the commodity exchange opened, and the students were taken aback. “Doesn’t the exchange open at 7 AM?”

In everyone’s plan, the challenge ends at 8 AM, they need to redeem fruits after the exchange opens at 7 AM, and immediately go challenge, whether they can succeed depends on luck, after all, there’s really not much time left.

But now, the exchange door is open.

Xiao Ying laughed cheerfully, “Aren’t you pressed for time? Making an exception for you once is no problem, come on, start queuing to exchange!”

…

…

Hu Jingyi hurried towards the 10-meter cliff, not wanting to waste a minute.

He used his remaining 200 points to exchange for two Immortal Heaven Fruits and ate them.
