Countdown 90:00:00.
6:00 in the morning.
Most of the Outer World students outside Whale Island are still sound asleep at home, with only some diligent high school students waking up at this time.
But it's different on Whale Island. Here, every morning at 6:00, there is a collective run, and participating in it with the academy instructors can earn you 10 points.
This means that both in the morning and evening, there are opportunities to earn points.
In the past, activities like running and studying were seen as endeavors with invisible benefits, or their benefits were so slow in coming that students found it hard to stay motivated.
But now it's different. The rewards on Whale Island are immediate and predictable.
As a result, those lazy students suddenly became diligent.
In fact, this bonus point activity wasn't initially available.
