I built the Black Tower City in Sumeru.

Chapter 2 Mentor Tinari

First, both I and the original owner of this body are in poor physical condition, so fitness is an urgent matter.

Secondly, the importance of connections is self-evident. As we all know, the geniuses in the Genius Club are eccentric, but the Black Tower's entry into Onphalos was largely due to the contributions of Ros Goom.

Small Theater——

Lai Gushi: Lady Black Tower, I assure you with my dignity that in extreme circumstances, our destruction is mutually guaranteed.

Black Tower: My super intelligence tells me that I should call on my super friend to use super power on you.

If I summon a Mechanical Emperor, won't you just explode?

……

Third, the importance of learning goes without saying.

But what's with this "choose one of three" nonsense? Only kids make choices, I want them all!

But everything has its priorities and urgency.

The original owner had just died suddenly once, and her own body had been in a state of sub-health for many years.

Task 1, [Strengthening the Body], is undoubtedly the most urgent task at present.

After all, if I continue studying, I might die again.

As for Task Two, choosing a mentor and developing a network, this concerns the future and requires careful analysis and consideration before making a choice.

After the exams, it's time for internships. The supervisors will start making selections after the exams and studies are completed.

Task three, reading and learning, is a good opportunity to review exam materials.

Therefore, the correct order of completion should be: one, three, two.

With that in mind, Chen Bo no longer hesitated and confirmed Task One on the system interface.

He closed the heavy book, "Analysis of Rainforest Ecosystem Stability," and prepared to go out for a run.

This body's foundation was really too poor. Walking from the library to the outside, a distance of only a few hundred meters, already made him feel a little tired.

"No way... with this kind of physical condition, it's no wonder you died suddenly." Chen Bo leaned against a pillar carved with vine patterns and couldn't help but mutter a complaint.

As soon as he said it, Chen Bo chuckled self-deprecatingly.

I don't think I have the right to say anything to him.

It's just the pot calling the kettle black.

Didn't I die suddenly myself?

"From today onwards, things will be different."

Chen Bo took a deep breath, the air filled with the fragrance of grass and trees, and his spirits instantly improved.

The advantage of Sumeru is that there are many trees and the air is much fresher than in the city.

The city of Sumeru was built atop a giant sacred tree, and the Church Hall, as the highest point in the city, offered an extremely wide view. As far as the eye could see, the verdant canopy layered upon layer, resembling an endless green ocean.

Running while enjoying such beautiful scenery elevates the experience significantly compared to running on the track.

He took off his scholar's slightly elaborate long robe, leaving him in only a close-fitting short shirt, and began to jog slowly around the circular plaza of the Church of Christ.

Even so, he started panting heavily after running less than 200 meters.

The body was weaker than he had imagined.

There were quite a few people on the road, and Anil even ran into a few classmates and heard some unpleasant noises.

"Isn't that Anil? He looks like he's about to die. He's really disgracing our Order of the Church."

"Others are simple-minded and idiotic, but Anil is simple-minded and even more idiotic."

The surrounding chatter wasn't loud, but it drifted intermittently into Chen Bo's ears.

If it were the original Anil, who was more sensitive, he would probably have been so ashamed that he would have given up on the spot.

But Chen Bo is alright!

After all, I've already graduated with a master's degree.

For researchers, the most common experiences are rejection and failure.

This is just everyday life.

He now has only one thought in mind—to complete the mission.

He now focuses more on his breathing and footsteps.

Inhale, exhale... Inhale, exhale...

He tried to adjust his rhythm, attempting to find a frequency that would allow him to persevere.

Five kilometers is really long.

"Anil? Is that you?"

The voice was crisp and melodious, with a hint of familiarity.

Chen Bo turned around and saw a familiar figure appear before him.

The newcomer had long flaxen hair with a few strands of bright green dyed at the ends, and wore a peculiar headphone-shaped ornament.

She was wearing a neat tracksuit that accentuated her beautiful figure.

Paravi.

The name immediately popped into Chen Bo's mind.

She and the original Anil were old classmates, meaning they were admitted to the Order of the Church from the same high school.

However, after entering the Order of the Church, their lives took two different paths.

Palavi is a recognized academic star among the students, consistently ranking among the top in his grade, having achieved third place twice and fourth place twice.

The original Anil was a notorious academic failure, having ranked third from last twice and fourth from last twice.

It can be described as perfectly symmetrical.

"Anil, you finally listened to my advice and started exercising." Paravi smiled happily as she ran to Chen Bo's side and started jogging alongside him.

The two were old acquaintances, and Paravi warmly raised Chen Bo's question: "However, running like this is not only tiring, but also prone to injury. Look, your breathing rhythm is all messed up."

"Come on, follow me." Paravi began his lesson: "Keep your upper body straight, don't hunch your shoulders. Yes, just like that. Then, inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth, find a fixed rhythm, one step inhale, one step exhale, or two steps inhale, two steps exhale."

As she spoke, she adjusted her breathing as an example, her voice steady and powerful.

Chen Bo immediately tried to imitate it. Although he was still in a mess, he did feel much more relaxed after regulating his breathing.

Seeing this, Paravi encouraged him, "Good, that's it. Relax your arms and swing them back and forth, not side to side. Focus on your feet and your breathing, don't think about how far it is."

Chen Bo nodded, focusing intently on adjusting his movements. Having a professional sparring partner definitely made a difference.

"Thank you, Paravi."

"You're welcome."

The two ran in silence for a distance.

"Exercise allows the brain to rest, which can actually improve learning efficiency," Palavi's voice rang out again, carrying the wisdom of someone who's been there. "After you finish this run, go back and read your books; you'll definitely have a great understanding."

Chen Bo thought to himself: As expected of a top student, he really has a knack for it.

"Speaking of which, the exam is in two days," Palavi changed the subject, asking, "Have you decided which tutor you'll choose?"

Chen Bo shook his head. The original owner of this body, Anil, had no plans for the future in her memories.

Paravi didn't seem surprised and continued speaking to himself, his tone filled with longing: "I've already made up my mind, I want to choose Mentor Tinari."

"Teacher Tinari has worked on the front lines of the rainforest for many years and has a wealth of practical experience. Moreover, I've heard that he's a very gentle person and extremely patient with his students."

At this point, Palavi's tone became serious again: "However, Instructor Tinari is too sought after. I've inquired, and both the first and second place finishers in the grade are aiming for him. So, I have to get into the top two to have a chance."

However, Paravi wasn't anxious. She clenched her fist and encouraged herself: "I've never come in second place before, so I have to give it my all this time. I also really like the rainforest, and I'm sure I'll learn the most from Mentor Tinari."

Tinaari?

It is indeed a good choice.

Both in terms of academic ability and character, he is top-notch in the entire Sumeru region.

Chen Bo recalled that the title of Grand Ranger of Tinari was not bestowed by the Church, but rather that Tinari earned everyone's recognition through his own abilities and character, and people respectfully called him Grand Ranger.

However, Tinari didn't really like the title of Grand Ranger.
