"Principal, are you making a wish on me?"
Xu Ran laughed, even though he indeed had an extraordinary talentâ
At an age when he couldnât cultivate yet, his Qi Blood Value was nearly 15,000!
He also had perfected the Lightweight Grass Flying Technique, Mysterious Footwork, Cloud Ladder Jump, Xuâs Flying Knife, Paper Spirit Communication, Piercing Flaws...
But to let a five-and-a-half-year-old child search for a Nightmare Vengeful Mother, which can make all the cityâs children fall into nightmares?
Even for someone with [High-level Comprehension], it wouldnât work...
Really donât know how the principalâs thirty-seven-degree mouth can say such high-energy words!
Refuse!
Refuse!
The principal chuckled: "Really canât do it? Iâve always thought children have unlimited potential. In ancient times, Gan Luo became a chancellor at twelve, and you just used a magical spell to help me solve a big problem..."
"I recognize your ability, Xu Ran. Maybe with some effort, you can find the Nightmare Vengeful Mother and eliminate her."
Xu Ran: "..."
"The responsibility of eliminating the Nightmare Vengeful Mother, letâs leave it to the Investigation Corps in Jing City! Iâm just an ordinary little boy."
The principal examined Xu Ran carefully: "Alright, alright, go back and have a good rest!"
He sent Xu Ran to the gate of the small villa, then gently leaped and disappeared from the spot.
As for Xu Ran and his mom, they finished washing up and went to bed separately.
Exhausted from a few hours, Xu Ran fell asleep as soon as he hit the bed.
...
Eleven oâclock in the morning.
Xu Ran got up feeling refreshed, hopping around the living room to stretch his muscles.
"Hmm? The little hero is awake?"
Xu Ran: "Good morning, mom. By the way, have they found the Nightmare Vengeful Mother?"
Mom shook her head: "Let me see... The morning news says the Investigation Corps searched the cityâs sewage system all night without any trace of the Nightmare Vengeful Mother.
Now they are calling on all cultivators in the city to provide clues to the Investigation Corps. Those who provide clues will be rewarded with rich resources."
Xu Ran responded with an "oh"...
Momâs finger scrolled down, her expression becoming more puzzled: "Do you think this Nightmare Vengeful Mother would hide somewhere if not underground? Could it be in the sky? In the clouds?"
Xu Ran shrugged: "The possibility of hiding in the clouds is very small; itâs more likely to be underground."
Mom was skeptical: "Really? Then why canât the Investigation Corps find it?"
Xu Ran: "Probably because her hiding method is special."
Mom: "Can you find it?"
Xu Ran fell silent: "..."
Are you sent by the principal to squeeze information out of me?
I really donât know!
Realizing Xu Ranâs speechlessness, Mom cupped Xu Ranâs face and rubbed it: "Haha, isnât it just because you looked like a savior last night that I subconsciously thought you could do it.
After all, when you drove away the childrenâs fear last night, you were truly impressive."
Momâs brows danced with joy as she looked at her exceptionally talented son.
Xu Ran broke free from Momâs cat-like face rubbing.
"Iâm hungry enough for my stomach to flatten. How about going to the cafeteria to eat?"
"Alright, letâs go eat~"
After eating two delicious pieces of Crystal Beast meat, a continuous stream of power flowed through Xu Ranâs body.
As per usual.
Next is self-discipline time.
But unlike before, itâs now not just him alone being disciplined.
Heâs joined by Tiger Girl, Zhu Yuheng, Feng Yan, Bian Yue, Bi Jingqiu, and Zhuge Huangjin, some of the most brilliant among the extraordinary talents.
They worked hard for two hours.
The daily progress of the Mysterious Footwork was maxed out.
The little kids were also all sweaty and making notable progress.
The principal stood nearby with arms folded: "Tsk tsk, each oneâs body technique is so graceful. With such skills, facing geniuses of the same age would indeed be a Dimensional Reduction Strike."
It must be said, Xu Ranâs guidance is a bit defiant.
Principal: "Ahem... Xu Ran, are you done? Do you want to comfort the kids once more? It somehow feels safer that way."
Xu Ran raised his eyebrow.
Suddenly, a bold idea popped into his mind.
"Principal, I think just comforting them isnât enough. As a genius student of the Demigod Kindergarten, they should have an extremely strong resistance to fear.
With a deer startled to the left without blinking, and Mount Tai collapsing in front with an unchanged expression. Thatâs the quality a top genius must possess."
Principal: "Hmm? Whatâs your high opinion?"
Xu Ran: "I mean, I have an idea to increase the super geniusesâ resistance to fear."
The principal raised an eyebrow: "Go on."
"As they say: the best way to eliminate fear is to face it! And I can frighten them until they cry, then comfort their emotions."
"As long as we keep this going for a year or two, their resistance to fear will surely skyrocket!"
The principal seemed moved: "It makes some sense. Why donât I let you try?"
Xu Ran stood tall: "Requesting to go to battle."
The principal nodded: "Alright, Iâll call the kids over later."
The principal had a special fondness for Xu Ranâhe has the ability to eliminate the fear brought by the Nightmare Vengeful Mother and can teach the geniuses the Mysterious Footwork.
His proposal might actually work.
If they could make the children immune to fear from a young age,
Then when facing the Resentful God, ghosts, or even more bizarre Exotic Star invaders, they might save their lives!
As long as theyâre not overwhelmed by fear and still have courage, human cultivators have limitless possibilities.
Thus.
With the principalâs authorization, Xu Ran gained official recognitionâfinally allowing him to legally frighten the kids.
[Horror Whisper] is about to reach entry-level at the fastest speed!
Xu Ran couldnât help gnashing his teeth, sharpening his knife with great eagerness...
Fifteen minutes later.
At the teaching activities center.
The kids in the park sat in a circle as if playing a game of tossing the handkerchief. Xu Ran sat in the center.
