Demotion?
Imprisonment?
Director Qin gave a slight smile, glancing at the alarmed little Liu.
"Little Liu, are you joking?"
"Look at that little handsome guy, and then look at that little beauty... Do you think the principal would be willing to hold us accountable?"
"Not to mention just using twenty drops of his True Blood, even if we used forty drops, the principal wouldn't blame me today."
Director Qin stood tall and proud, despite having wealth as her only asset remaining.
Assistant Little Liu was bewildered.
But soon, she snapped out of her mental rut, her face suddenly full of realization.
The little handsome boy Xu Ran, two years and nine months old, with a Qi Blood value as high as 206! And he also possesses the Comprehension Root Bone!
The little sister Jiang Liuli, only two and a half since she was born, has awakened the Root Bone, and her Qi Blood Value is also not weak.
If these two grow up with such talent, even in the Demigod Kindergarten, which gathers geniuses from the entire province, they would still stand out.
Having discovered two great geniuses, the principal would be more likely to reward them than blame them!
The assistant sighed with relief.
However, Principal Cheng Qi's usual authoritative image... still made Assistant Little Liu's heart tremble with fear.
"Bang—"
"Bang—"
"Bang—"
The footsteps were heavy, approaching from far, full of pressure.
The kindergarten principal, tall and imposing at two meters high, had arrived.
His gaze was sharp, brows tightly furrowed, with the words "Stern Teacher" and "Not Easy to Converse With" clearly written on his face.
His gaze, like a torch, locked onto Director Qin: "Qin Lu! What good deed have you done?!"
The voice was deep, like a tiger's low growl, intimidating.
Assistant Little Liu trembled, and Director Qin was equally drenched in sweat.
The principal's cultivation had reached the first level of the Yue Realm! His Qi Blood, comparable to a mountain a thousand meters high.
This kind of towering powerful figure, just his serious tone alone was enough to fill her with dread, the pressure overwhelming.
Director Qin immediately 'slid down' on her knees: "Principal, I have found two super geniuses for our Demigod Kindergarten! I am a diligent and conscientious good employee! Just look at the two of them!"
As she spoke.
She pointed to Xu Ran and Jiang Liuli, proudly raising her head:
"This little handsome guy, two years and nine months old, a Qi Blood Value of 206, and also possesses the Comprehension Root Bone!"
"This little beauty, two and a half years old, a Qi Blood Value of 91, she has just awakened the Root Bone, and she is the 'Celestial Punisher,' but she endured the 'Celestial Punishment'!"
Upon hearing this.
The principal's eyes widened with surprise, first looking at Xu Ran, then at Jiang Liuli.
"Really?"
"There's no way to fake it."
"Children, may I verify, is that okay?"
Xu Ran nodded calmly, while Tiger Girl was timid for the first time, hiding behind Aunt Chen.
Xu Ran waved: "Liuli sister, come here."
Seeing Xu Ran's call, Tiger Girl mustered up courage again, dashed to his side, hiding behind, her bright eyes wary as she eyed Principal Cheng Qi.
Assistant Little Liu comforted Tiger Girl on the side: "Principal Grandpa is not a bad person. He just wants to verify the Qi Blood Value."
As she spoke, she collected blood from Xu Ran and Tiger Girl to verify.
When the device displayed the Qi Blood test results of Xu Ran and Jiang Liuli.
A gleam passed through the principal's eyes.
He slowly squatted down. He took Xu Ran's finger, rubbing the spot where the blood was drawn.
The wound had already healed perfectly...
Xu Ran: "..."
Not good, I forgot to control the healing speed!
Could I have exposed another talent?
This isn't my fault; it's entirely subconscious body memory!
His powerful skills were too numerous, and he forgot to control it for a moment!
Who knew such an experienced principal would see through it!
One has to admit, this principal, he has something!
Such a minute detail, and he could see the clues...
Xu Ran marveled internally.
But he probably can't think that I have quick recovery, right?
After all, my skills are too extraordinary, so the principal certainly can't think so far...
Xu Ran's breathing was steady.
Seeing this.
The principal seemed not to delve further, patting Xu Ran's round head: "Comprehension Root Bone + less than three years old yet with 206 Qi Blood Value. Great talent!"
Next.
He took Liuli's small hand, feeling her pulse.
"Hmm, there's the fluctuation of the Root Bone, energy level reaching First Grade, but the type is unknown, it'll have to be gradually explored later. But having a Qi Blood Value of 91 at two and a half is also a good talent."
"Where are the children's parents or guardians?"
Tiger Girl's mother and Lin Qian stepped forward: "It's us."
The principal stood up, handed over a business card: "My name is Cheng Qi, the principal of Jing Province Demigod Kindergarten. My responsibility is to discover young talents and protect and train them using the most scientific methods."
"Your children have met the enrollment standards of the Demigod Kindergarten."
"Now I formally extend an invitation to these two little geniuses for residency in the campus to participate in training. It would be best if you could move immediately."
Lin Qian and Tiger Girl's mother were surprised: "Move immediately...?"
"Yes, before the age of eight, children can't cultivate; each day can only be enhanced by consuming Crystal Beast meat."
"For ordinary children, losing a day or a few months is no issue. But for top geniuses. Losing a day is falling a significant step behind."
The principal's face was solemn: "In our kindergarten, there are eight children with a Qi Blood Value exceeding 460 points.
Five children have a Qi Blood Value exceeding 490 points. Only slightly weaker than Adam."
"Your two little ones have been discovered too late..."
"It's certainly challenging to compare with them. Even staying in kindergarten continuously, there's probably no way to reach the heights of those geniuses..."
The principal admired their talents but also felt some regret and pity.
One had a Comprehension Root Bone, which is not noticed at first, hence discovered only at two years and nine months.
The other awakened the Root Bone only at two and a half...
Far inferior to those geniuses who entered the Demigod Kindergarten at one year old.
Actually, many geniuses encounter this; they are either entrapped due to lack of talent scouts or fade into the multitude, or perish between the troughs...
"However. On the other hand. They are also lucky, two years old is not too late."
"With their talents, starting now by eating the best Crystal Beast meat and striving diligently, they will definitely become the pillars of Xia Country in the future!"
Listening to the principal's words.
The two mothers couldn't help but tactically lean back: "So the competition is this intense, does that mean we also have to go to kindergarten?"
The principal nodded: "Of course, you have to go."
"Two-year-old children cannot be separated from the care of their parents."
"Moreover, courses like swimming, running, studying, mountain climbing, and traveling all require the company of parents."
For a moment, Lin Qian and Tiger Girl's mom were hesitant: "What about the tuition? It's very expensive, isn't it?"
Principal: "All expenses are covered by the Demigod Kindergarten, including the living costs of the guardians."
"We, Demigod Kindergarten, aim to nurture the strongest cultivators, savings are not in our considerations!"
Lin Qian and Tiger Girl's mother exchanged a glance.
The Demigod Kindergarten offers the best Crystal Beast meat!
That condition alone is tempting enough.
Top-grade Crystal Beasts can easily cost hundreds of thousands per pound!
And also the children's safety measures are a tempting condition too.
Their mother had been wanting a safe zone for a while.
After all, there was a time when she felt something dirty floating around at home in the dead of night...
Moreover.
The Cockatrice incident left a deep shadow in her heart.
Although thousands of Cockatrices were hunted nationwide afterward, the bodies of the babies who disappeared in that Cockatrice event were never found...
Where did those bodies go?
Why can't the cultivators find them?
Isn't it very strange and eerie?
Who knows what dangers lurk in unattended dark corners!!
Pessimistically thinking.
Perhaps a few years from now, there will be a new Exotic Star invasion, bringing even more terrifying chaos...
