Mumbling to himself.
Xu Ran quietly returned to the crib, full of smiles, and fell into a dream.
In the following period.
His life was regular and disciplined.
During the day.
When his mom took him to the crawling gym, he used Tiger Girl as a tool to madly practice the proficiency of Hide and Seek.
Late at night.
Taking advantage of his mom's deep sleep, he practiced the Gecko Wall-Climbing Skill like crazy.
A hundred days passed in a flash.
On the 366th day after birth, Xu Ran was exactly one year old.
It had been exactly a hundred days since the activation of the Quick Run and Hide and Seek skills.
At 8:30 in the morning.
The moment Xu Ran got up.
He discovered his Qi power had surged!
"Is it because after turning one, the conversion rate of Qi Blood to Qi power increased from 5% to 10%? So I became twice as strong!"
He smiled happily.
"Plus, my Blessed Fortune increased to 28 points!"
A double blessing indeed.
Finished freshening up.
After breakfast.
His mom held Xu Ran as usual, heading to the baby crawling gym, teaming up with other moms.
Resting on his mom's shoulder, Xu Ran's eyes were bright, and his expression was calm and quiet.
"Just 100 points of progress left. One more day of playing with Tiger Girl, and a big skill harvest awaits."
Xu Ran's heart was eager, unable to wait to embrace that joy!
...
At the entrance of the crawling gym, Lin Qian and Chen Lizhen met.
"Good morning, Liuli's mom~"
"Good morning, Xiao Ran's mom~"
The two moms greeted each other warmly.
Xu Ran was placed on the ground by his mom.
While Tiger Girl was tightly held by her mom.
In three months, Tiger Girl was unstoppable.
If not watched carefully, she'd run around like a young tigress, full of energy.
In her mom's words: "Full of strange power, very naughty. At home, if she's fed and bored, she'll start wrecking the house."
"In a blink, she'll topple the table, kick the chairs all over, flip the sofa, and shift the bed..."
"Her strength is so overwhelming, it's headache-inducing. Makes me wish I could leash her!"
Tiger Girl's mom sighed.
...
Entering the crawling gym.
The moment Tiger Girl appeared.
The moms trembled.
They hurried to hold their kids close, hiding in corners, leaving Tiger Girl a vast space to move around.
Xu Ran chuckled shamelessly.
Among all the children playing in the gym, only Xu Ran hadn't been made to cry by Tiger Girl.
Tiger Girl's mom was helpless.
Lin Qian: "…Xiao Ran, play with your sister."
Xu Ran nodded, looking at the 85 cm tall Tiger Girl, 20 cm shorter than him, and teased her by clapping his hands.
"Eeyaa eeyaa~"
The little kid with a tiger head and tiger brain charged at Xu Ran, baring her teeth.
Xu Ran feigned a move, then ran with Tiger Girl to a small area with a few people, then pulled off a vanishing act, hiding behind the moms in the distance.
With Tiger Girl's not yet one-year-old intelligence, she'd just keep looking at the small hole by the wall.
That's how kids are.
They think that someone can hide in a hole as small as a fist.
Seeing this.
The moms laughed endlessly.
"Xiao Ran is so smart. He plays Hide and Seek with little Liuli every day and can always hide for a long time."
"Baby, you're so clever!"
The moms would occasionally turn and kiss him on the cheek.
Xu Ran wiped the drool off his cheek, looking indifferent, lying in the shadow, quietly waiting for his proficiency to grow.
Tiger Girl was truly like a tiger, with excellent stamina, searching the whole gym for Xu Ran.
But Xu Ran could not only hide.
He also knew the "Body Technique", circling around like King Qin, confusing Tiger Girl, who then ran to another small hole, sticking her head in to watch.
"Eeyaa eeyaa~"
Where could he be?
Her little head was filled with big confusion.
Xu Ran lay there grinding progress.
Occasionally showing up to race Tiger Girl, making her laugh heartily.
The day flew by.
[Current Hide and Seek progress: 10000/10000... reached full value, promoting you to—Mysterious Footwork (Beginner)....]
[Mysterious Footwork (Beginner): 0/10000....]
[Current Quick Run progress: 10000/10000... reached full value, promoting you to—Lightweight Grass Flying Technique (Beginner)....]
[Lightweight Grass Flying Technique (Beginner): 0/10000....]
[Current Qi Blood Value: 301/1000....]
Upon hearing the prompt sound.
Xu Ran suddenly felt a surge of Spirit.
"Being crazily self-disciplined for 100 days, finally ushered in the harvest."
When the skills completed their progression, Xu Ran only felt a delightful current of electricity course through his body, bringing him incomparable happiness.
Comfortable!
Very comfortable!
The joy at this moment is indescribable!
You must know.
He's only one year and one month old, an age absolutely unsuitable for Cultivation.
Yet, he accumulated 301 Qi Blood Value through the Achievement of the [Self-Discipline Baby]! This statistic is already 30 times that of a normal adult!
At the same time.
He also possesses three Body Technique martial arts—Gecko Wall-Climbing Skill! Lightweight Grass Flying Technique! Mysterious Footwork!
If encountering an abduction incident, there's no doubt he won't lack the ability to escape.
Xu Ran was filled with extreme joy.
So much so that he wanted to immediately demonstrate the Lightweight Grass Flying Technique and Mysterious Footwork to feel the effect.
But, to avoid scaring his mom, he chose to keep it a secret!
Wait until late at night when his mom is asleep, then experience it alone.
The day ended.
The moms left one after another.
"Wave goodbye to little Liuli and Auntie Xu~"
"Wave goodbye to big brother Xiao Ran and Auntie Lin~"
"Goodbye!"
Xu Ran leaned on his mom's shoulder, waving goodbye to Tiger Girl, who achieved much despite everything in those 100 days.
"Eeyaa eeyaa~ Tiger~ Tiger~ Tiger~ Brother!"
Tiger Girl laughed broadly, her tiger-headed and tiger-brained face showing a few sparse milk teeth.
Xu Ran was amused. This Tiger Girl is truly funny.
"Hmm?"
Xu Ran squinted again.
A hundred days later, he once again saw the golden light bloom from Tiger Girl's heart.
This time the light was more intense than two months ago.
But also more fleeting.
Almost a flash...
"What exactly is that? A golden legendary talent?"
People are naturally curious, and Xu Ran is no exception.
This was the second time he saw the golden light from Tiger Girl's heart.
Quite peculiar.
Feels very incredible!
"Am I the only one who can see this light? Or did it just happen to bloom coincidentally?"
"From the reactions of those around, it seems like only I saw it..."
"Won't I be targeted by someone with bad intentions?"
Xu Ran lay on his mom's shoulder, his face thoughtful.
"Temporarily, it should be fine. During infancy, none of us will leave our mom's supervision, nor will we leave the safe area."
"As for traffickers... they probably won't dare to abduct both of us in broad daylight, right?"
"But to be safe, I have to prepare for the worst. I now have Minor Achievement in the Gecko Wall-Climbing Skill, have entered the Mysterious Footwork and the Lightweight Grass Flying Technique categories, so body technique-wise, unless facing a particularly strong gang, I can handle it."
"But for absolute safety, I need an attack skill."
"But the skill I want is hard to try, it's troubling..."
More than a month ago, he subtly tried the baby turtle punch, Infant Palm, Infant Iron Mountain Lean.
But the system had no reaction.
According to his guess, it might be that martial arts training requires a threshold, he's not yet of age (over three), and his exertion method isn't standard, so the system doesn't trigger the skill.
As for other skills, he's still experimenting!
