Naming Technique of the Night

Many people in the world think that the struggle for Qingʼs shadow is a cruel process, and also foolish.

After all, the battle for the shadow that occurs every few years always results in the sacrifice of several outstanding young members of the family, making the system appear as if it were stabbing itself in the foot.

However, upon closer examination of these corporations, Qing Chen suddenly realized that the struggle for shadow was a clever system. It allowed for a very prolonged process of transitioning power before any extreme situation erupted.

By the time a Family Head retired, the Shadow was already in full control, leaving no room for anyone to dispute.

Furthermore, the process of becoming a Shadow Candidate also selected the cruelest, smartest, and most powerful successor for the family.

Even if a candidate was initially kind-hearted, it was difficult to maintain that kindness through this ordeal.

As harsh as it may be for the candidates, the system was beneficial for the Clan.

A huge entity like a corporation could only stand tall in the Federation for so long not out of goodness, but out of ferocity and wisdom.

It was only at this moment that Qing Chen looked at the time on his arm.

The countdown read 46:00:00.

It was two oʼclock in the morning, which meant there were only two short days left for the current return trip.

”XiaoTongyun, go back to sleep. You still have to go to school tomorrow,” Qing Chen said as he escorted Li Tongyun up to the second floor.

Before entering the house, the young girl looked up at him eagerly: ”When grandma and grandpa go back to Zheng City, can I come stay with you and mom for a few days?”

”Of course,” Qing Chen smiled indulgently: ”Hurry back now.”

At this moment, everyone needed to rest and gather their strength, as they were about to head back into the Inner World and face the brewing storm in City 18.
