Chapter 27 - Section 23: Double or Nothing!

"Probably not."

"With so many cultivators in Xia Country, what kind of mischief could happen right under their noses?"

Xu Ran pondered, shaking his head with a smile.

Actually... when he first heard about the Resentful God appearing, he planned to sneak out to hunt it...

But the cultivators of Xia Country took just three days to clear seventeen thousand Resentful Gods.

Going out now.

There wouldn't be any Resentful Gods left for his Origami Spirit Communication.

As for inside the Demigod Kindergarten...

He dragged his mom on a tour, and there wasn't even a trace of ghostly aura left.

"Looks like the Resentful God affair has been suppressed once again."

"I hope the cultivators of Xia Country can find the purification device soon!"

"As for me, the best choice is, of course, to grind in the kindergarten until I become the Sword God of Ten Mile Slope!"

"Right now, my power is far from being able to crush everything."

Xu Ran planned carefully before acting.

He had a steady mind.

Gradually.

The Resentful God incident slowly faded from view...

The life that followed became rather monotonous.

Eating bones, grinding progress, eating rhino meat, feeding animals, swimming...

During this period.

Li Qinghong taught a class every three days, and her classes were quite special.

In the morning, they learned footwork and dodging.

In the afternoon, she would take the students to the mountain top to build up courage.

The courage-building activity was simple.

With a child's arms wrapped around, facing the depths of the cliff, she would leap from a five hundred meter high cliff!

This part was fresh and unique.

Although the children were geniuses, the innate fear still made them cry loudly.

Over a dozen children, butts sticking out and feet dragging on the ground... Li Qinghong had to drag them for over a dozen meters to the edge of the cliff.

Xu Ran couldn't help but laugh, quietly wiping away sweat at the back of the crowd—not because he was scared to a sweat, but because his stomach was struggling to crush the bones of a Tier Seven Crystal Beast.

A bit strenuous.

But for the Golden Achievement, this little pain was nothing!

Li Qinghong's tone was serious: "No closing your eyes, you must look at the bottom of the cliff. If you close your eyes, I'll take you to jump again."

"The emotion cultivators should overcome the most is fear, fear can lead to eternal damnation."

"Crystal Beasts, Resentful Gods, Ghosts... the fears you will face in the future will be a thousand times stronger than now; will you close your eyes and become a coward?"

"Open your eyes and face this fear!"

Li Qinghong's voice was cold, like ice hitting glass.

Four- and five-year-old children, how could they understand these principles?

Screaming and crying as they fell, streams of tears flying in the air.

Only a few children managed to stay calm.

For instance, those ranked in the top four Qi Blood values: Zhu Yuheng, Feng Yan, Bian Yue, Bie Jingqiu...

However, they were actually gritting their teeth to hold on.

Judging by their pale faces.

As for the fifth in Qi Blood value, the chubby Zhuge Huangjin, his screams were like a slaughtered pig, and he turned into a pile of mush, paralyzed on the ground.

"Xu Ran, step out."

Li Qinghong called on Xu Ran.

"Here."

Xu Ran stepped out calmly, wiping a bit of sweat.

"Are you nervous?"

"No..."

"It's okay to be nervous, you'll get used to it. Who wouldn't be afraid? I've seen the strongest geniuses also fear..."

Li Qinghong snorted lightly.

Xu Ran: "..."

He didn't explain.

Letting Li Qinghong grab him, turning his handsome face toward the ground.

"Let's go."

Li Qinghong leapt, turning into an eagle pouncing on prey, crashing toward the ground.

The fierce wind howled by his ears.

Xu Ran remained unfazed, breathing steadily.

"Hmm?"

Li Qinghong was slightly surprised, no emotional fluctuation at all?

Was he scared unconscious or?

She sensed a bit, finding Xu Ran's expression untroubled.

"Are you not afraid?"

Xu Ran acted indifferent: "What's there to be afraid of?"

Li Qinghong focused, speeding their descent, yet Xu Ran was still unruffled.

To him, falling from five hundred meters was really nothing.

When he was young, he crawled around the ceiling practicing Gecko Wall-Climbing Skill.

While hunting Resentful Gods, he ran wildly using both hands and feet between skyscraper walls.

He wasn't unfamiliar with heights like five hundred meters.

At one time, he shifted his vision to a paper bat every day, flying up to five hundred meters.

The aim was to trigger a flying skill.

Unfortunately, without personally flying in the air, no magical skill was triggered...

"There's no trace of fear factors in your blood... but why are you sweating?"

Xu Ran made up an excuse offhandedly: "Afraid of the heat."

"Hmm?"

Li Qinghong raised her eyebrows, ruffled Xu Ran's hair, and then leaped back to the mountaintop with him.

A group of parents saw Xu Ran as calm as ever, showing an expression that was both expected and unexpected.

The two new kids might not have high Qi Blood Values, but they are definitely a pair of Hidden Dragon and Phoenix.

One likes to scare the other kids to tears, the other is agile in fights, can predict the enemy's moves, and even when the principal tries to catch her, she can dodge just in time.

"Jiang Liuli. Step forward."

Tiger Girl swaggered forward with a big grin on her face.

Li Qinghong: "...Hmm? Why does this little girl look so excited? Does she think she's on a roller coaster?"

Her arm clamped around Tiger Girl: "Don't close your eyes, keep staring at the ground from start to finish."

Tiger Girl: "Got it!"

"Then let's start jumping."

The wind howled, and Tiger Girl's hair was blown back into a large pompadour style.

Her round and broad forehead glistened, the flesh on her cheeks trembled in the wind.

Her sparkling eyes widened, and the excitement between her features grew more intense.

"Hehehehehe!"

A string of demonic laughter echoed across the cliff.

Li Qinghong: "...Oh no. We've encountered two troublemakers. Those excellent kids, they all overcome fear forcibly."

"But the last boy, falling five hundred meters, felt nothing inside. And this weird girl, her blood is starting to boil? Like the prelude to a power burst..."

"So what exactly is her Root Bone? Two super abilities compatible? Or even more?"

Li Qinghong was full of confusion.

"Wow—"

Li Qinghong landed on the ground, turning her head to look at Tiger Girl.

Only to see Tiger Girl still excited, wriggling like a little tiger in Li Qinghong's embrace.

"Teacher, can we do it 100 more times?"

Li Qinghong: "Hmm..."

Although she wanted to refuse, she still bungee jumped up and down with Tiger Girl a dozen times.

The demonic laughter of "hehe" made Li Qinghong's scalp tingle and made other parents look complex.

Lin Qian: "..."

Tiger Girl's Mom: "..."

Xu Ran: "..."

...

Time flies by, and in the blink of an eye, 100 days have passed.

Every day, eating top-quality crystal beast meat + attending classes + grinding progression...

Xu Ran's days were incredibly fulfilling, and the progress of his magical skills skyrocketed by 10,000 points due to his tireless effort day and night.

[Reading Thousands of Books: 1150/10000...]

Most skills have reached Great Success!

"It's delightful! If all of them enter the Third Sequence, that would be fantastic."

The world is dangerous.

Xu Ran wasn't overly proud.

His current Qi Blood... is still at the early Stele Realm! Far from being able to suppress everything.

[You consumed high-energy food ×100 days, Qi Blood Value +600 points, Self-Discipline Baby achievement +100 points, current Qi Blood Value: 2007/10000 points...]

At this time.

The period was precisely the 1217th day of infancy.

His Qi Blood Value reached as high as 2007, twice that of Adam at five years old!

The so-called number one genius on Blue Star isn't even worthy of eating his dust.

"What does leading by a long shot mean?"

Xu Ran tactical lean back.JPG...

[Your stomach worked hard to digest crystal beast bones ×100 days, Nutrient Extraction (Beginner) progress: 10000/10000 points... has reached the full value, automatically upgrading to Nutrient Extraction (Minor Achievement)...]

On the other hand.

His Nutrient Extraction skill has reached the crucial Minor Achievement progress!

"Now, can I gain +4 Qi Blood Value from one meal?"

Xu Ran exhaled a deep breath.

Looking enthusiastically at the crystal beast meat on his plate.

With 608 days left until the age of five... if one meal can give him +4 Qi Blood Value, then he can gain +13 Qi Blood Value per day.

Calculating over 608 days, he can gain a total of 7904 Qi Blood Value, plus the existing 2007 points, confidently achieving ten thousand!

There is a 100% possibility of completing the third Innate Baptism and obtaining the third Golden Achievement before the age of five!

However.

If his Minor Achievement in [Nutrient Extraction] can't even double the gain, then his 200 days of intense effort will fail...

The line between doubling and failing is thin!

"I'm counting on you, my Divine Stomach... you've been working hard for 200 days, just endure a little longer, and give me some surprise, will you?"

Xu Ran murmured to himself.

He forked a piece of Tier Seven rhino meat, gulped it down, and then held his breath, attentively listening for the prompt sound in his mind...
