Baby with Daoist Monarch System

Chapter 37: Chapter 29: High-level Comprehension Acquired! Tiger Girl’s Second Celestial Punishment?

[In the pitch-black night, you ignored various distractions, precisely detecting the target, successfully triggering a new magical skill—Black Night Focus. (Promotion Sequence: Black Night Focus—Nightfall Assassin—Dark Domain—Dark Origin...)]

[Black Night Focus]: Your focus level in the night increases. Entry-level is twenty percent, Minor Achievement is forty percent, Great Success is sixty percent, Perfection is eighty percent.

[Nightfall Assassin]: Your endurance, destructive power, reaction speed, recovery ability in the night are more than three times normal, up to ten times max.

[Dark Domain]: You will control darkness, devouring all surrounding light, creating a combat domain centered on you.

[Dark Origin]: You will seize the Dark Origin for your use!

”Hmm... the style is indeed different!!”

Xu Ran was slightly surprised.

This magical skill’s first sequence starts at a completely different height.

Recalling the magical skills he possessed.

When they were first triggered, they were just basic life skills, like Fast Climb, Hide and Seek, Fast Run... They were unremarkable, which any child might possess.

It was Xu Ran who pushed through with 10,000 progress points to leap them into the second sequence, turning them into true magical skills.

But now... the first sequence already starts off as ”magical”?

”Is it because I’ve been reading more and my comprehension has significantly improved, so the benefits are becoming apparent? Or is there some other reason?”

”If it’s purely because of comprehension, it doesn’t seem to add up. Because the playing dead just now started as ’Ordinary Playing Dead’...”

Xu Ran raised an eyebrow, pondering seriously for a moment.

”I understand! It should be that the trigger conditions for [Black Night Focus] are relatively strict, and the barrier to entry is high, so it’s only natural for the entry-level skill to be much stronger.”

”In any case, I’ve gained another practical skill!”

”Indeed, life is full of surprises! Who would have thought, after a day of reading, I could trigger two magical skills at night?”

”Perhaps reading really can make someone lucky?!”

Xu Ran suddenly thought of that saying, unable to help but smile with joy.

”I don’t know if reading makes others lucky, but reading will definitely consistently make me stronger!”

”In that case, let’s be a little more disciplined! Go to the library during the day and borrow books to continue reading at night!”

Murmuring to himself.

Xu Ran’s eyes suddenly lit up: ”What a great idea!”

”If I only read fifty books during the day. It would take 145 days to upgrade [Reading Thousands of Books] to the second sequence [High-level Comprehension]. But if I push myself to read seventy books a day, it would only take 99 days!”

”Ninety-nine days, such a beautiful and familiar number!”

”Alright, that’s decided then. Discipline has already become my breathing.”

Xu Ran, who has been disciplined since the day of his birth, paid no heed to others’ affairs.

He silently devised an even crazier discipline plan in his heart.

He also casually packed a hundred practice darts into a basket and leisurely walked into the living room.

Living room.

His mom had already neatly folded his clean clothes and placed them on the sofa.

”Baby, go take a bath, and after bathing go to sleep, although you’re already 1.4 meters tall now, if you sleep late, you might not grow taller! Being under 1.5 meters could be a real problem.”

Xu Ran’s handsome face was full of pride: ”...Mom, you’re worrying unnecessarily. I’m definitely not going to be 1.5 meters! I’ll easily be a tall 1.8 meters!”

His mom laughed heartily: ”If you sleep late again tomorrow, 1.8 meters might be difficult, baby.”

”Then I’ll sleep earlier tomorrow.”

Xu Ran made an OK gesture and went to take a bath with his clothes.

After taking a bath.

Xu Ran entered his bedroom.

However, before going to bed, he smiled at his mom: ”Good night, Mom.”

”Good night.”

”Snap—”

The lights went out.

In the darkness, a handsome face moved from the bed to the ceiling...

Gecko Wall-Climbing Skill progress +1...

Gecko Wall-Climbing Skill progress +1...

Gecko Wall-Climbing Skill progress +1...

After a few days of adaptation, Xu Ran’s ”Magnetic Attraction Skill” has reached perfection and he no longer falls off.

Nothing happened for a night.

The next day. Reading Thousands of Books progress +70...

Qi Blood Value +16 points...

Another day passed, Reading Thousands of Books progress +70...

Qi Blood Value +16 points...

On the third day, while Xu Ran’s mom was accompanying him at the library, her phone suddenly vibrated.

She answered.

On the other end of the line, Tiger Girl’s mom spoke rapidly: ”Little Ran’s mom... Little Liuli has fainted again! It’s somewhat similar to last time! Could you ask Little Ran to come over? We need his help!”

Lin Qian immediately stood up: ”Little Ran, hurry, hurry, hurry, Little Liuli has fainted, the situation is the same as last time!”

”Got it, heading out immediately.”

Xu Ran didn’t even close his book, jumping up from his chair, walking briskly while pondering: ”Strange, Tiger Girl is fainting again? Isn’t her Root Bone already formed?”

Ever since Tiger Girl fainted last time, after absorbing 20 drops of Crystal Beast True Blood in the hospital, two and a half years have passed without any observation of the crimson-golden light in her chest!

Xu Ran has been keeping an eye on this matter.

While keeping an eye on Tiger Girl, he also observed other kindergarten prodigies.

But after two and a half years of observation, he had never seen the glow of other prodigies.

This means that Xu Ran is the only one able to see the Root Bone glow of Tiger Girl.

Which raises a question.

Why is it he can only see Tiger Girl’s?

He doesn’t understand; could it be some sort of bond? But he and Tiger Girl have no blood relation, and their two moms only got to know each other when the children were eight and ten months old respectively, so what bond could there be?

”If it’s because of the system... I can see Tiger Girl’s Root Bone. Then relying on the system, I should also be able to see other prodigies’ Root Bones too!”
