Learning to play games, a 40-year-old woman achieves a remarkable turnaround.

On this day, the first day of the Lunar New Year, there were three subjects to be tested: geography and politics in the morning, and history in the afternoon. After Yuan Bao finished the exams, he returned home and, seeing that it was still early, went back to his room and entered his spatial dimension.

Open your personal panel and allocate 3 points each to Stamina and Agility from the 6 basic attribute points you earned today.

The basic attributes have been updated to:

Game attributes: Intelligence 31, Stamina 26, Strength 26, Luck 24, Agility 23.

Real-world attributes: Intelligence 12, Stamina 10, Strength 10, Luck 10, Agility 11.

System Notes: For most people, a basic attribute score of 10 is considered A+. For every 3 points gained in each attribute in the game, the corresponding attribute in real life will increase by 1 point.

My agility attribute is already 23 points. I remember Xiao 9 saying that once it reaches 20 points, the shop will release the movement skills: Spirit Cloud Step and Instant Movement.

Yuan Bao opened the shop to check; both skills cost 50. He had nearly 100 million in his balance, but it was impossible to buy both at the same time.

Yuan Bao frowned slightly, his heart filled with conflict. Both skills looked very good, but they were expensive. If he chose the wrong one, he would not only waste his hard-earned wealth, but it might also affect his future growth path.

After much deliberation, she decided to ask her most trusted partner, Xiao 9, for help.

"Little 9, come out quickly!" Yuan Bao called softly.

As soon as the words were spoken, Little 9's round and adorable figure appeared like a wisp of smoke. It blinked its bright eyes and looked at Yuan Bao with a grin: "Master, what do you need me for? You look so troubled. Have you run into a problem again?"

Yuan Bao pointed to the Lingyun Steps and Instantaneous Movement on the shelf and sighed helplessly: "Little 9, look, my agility attribute is enough, and I'm thinking of choosing a suitable movement skill, but I really can't decide on these two. They're both quite expensive, and I don't know which one is more suitable for me. Can you give me some advice and tell me the differences between them?"

Little 9 strode confidently to the skill icon, waving its little paws in the air as it earnestly introduced, "My little master, look! This Spirit Cloud Steps technique is incredibly flexible, light, and graceful, like a cloud. It emphasizes footwork skills, making you feel like you're dancing in the sky, your movements as light and elusive as a cloud, making you unpredictable. Whether dodging enemy attacks or navigating complex terrain, you'll be in your element. And what's more, it has a major highlight: it can be used in the real world! Imagine encountering danger in reality, and with this Spirit Cloud Steps, you can instantly escape your predicament—isn't that super cool?"

Yuan Bao's eyes lit up as she listened, and she couldn't help but imagine herself as light as a swallow, moving nimbly and gracefully. She was already inclined towards the Lingyun Steps, but she still patiently listened to Xiao 9's explanation of the teleportation technique.

"Look at this teleportation technique; it takes a powerful and aggressive approach. Once activated, it can achieve high-speed displacement over varying distances in an instant, with extremely strong explosive power, like a lightning bolt streaking across the night sky, making it impossible for enemies to defend against. However, it consumes a lot of the user's strength and stamina, and it can only be used in the game world; its use in the real world is restricted." After Xiao 9 finished speaking, she tilted her head and looked at Yuan Bao, awaiting her decision.

Yuan Bao fell into deep thought, tapping his chin lightly with his fingers as he weighed the pros and cons.

On the one hand, the instantaneous burst of power from teleportation is indeed tempting, and it will certainly play a huge role in combat in the game.

On the other hand, the Lingyun Step technique can not only help in the game, but also provide protection in real life. It may even protect her family in critical moments. This practicality makes it hard for her to give it up.

Less than two seconds later, Yuan Bao raised his head: "Little 9, I want the Spirit Cloud Steps!"

Little 9 replied with a grin, "Alright, my lord is wise! The Spirit Cloud Steps will definitely not disappoint you."

Yuan Bao completed the purchase and activation process.

In an instant, a soft golden light flashed, and an ancient skill manual exuding a mysterious aura slowly fell into Yuan Bao's hands. The four large characters "Lingyun Steps" on the cover of the manual were written in a flamboyant style, as if they contained endless power.

Yuan Bao excitedly opened the manual, and an ancient and profound aura wafted over her. She took a deep breath and began to cultivate diligently according to the instructions in the manual.

Yuan Bao was completely absorbed in the task, his steps moving slowly and precisely according to the instructions in the manual. Each step felt as if he were walking on thin air, light and rhythmic.

At first, she was a little clumsy and her steps were a bit messy, but with continuous practice, she gradually found her rhythm, her movements became more and more agile, and her speed increased.

It felt like she had been practicing for a long time, but it was only two hours. Yuan Bao finally mastered the first level of the Spirit Cloud Steps. She breathed a sigh of relief, feeling the new power surging through her body, and was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Having finished his cultivation, Yuan Bao quickly came out of his spatial dimension to prepare dinner.

Afterwards, the family enjoyed a delicious dinner, discussing the exam content.

After finishing the exam, the eldest brother Baoguo was even more confident in himself. He told his parents, "I'm just waiting for the results to come out. They'll blow the teachers' and classmates' minds."

Yuan Bao watched his confident older brother from the side, and was also very happy. This rebirth journey in the game really made people feel fulfilled.

After finishing his meal, Yuan Bao returned to his room, closed the door, and entered his spatial dimension.

Having acquired the Mind Network and mastered the Spirit Cloud Steps, he prepared to test his skills once again in the mysterious cave.

Click on the map to get to the cave entrance as quickly as possible.

The familiar damp, decaying smell, along with a slight chill, rushed towards him, but Yuan Bao seemed oblivious, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.

After entering the cave, Yuan Baotian's night vision allowed him to see clearly inside. Following the path he had taken before, he quickly arrived at the place where the bats had appeared last time.

Yuan Bao lit a torch and threw it into the air. Sure enough, not long after, a familiar rustling sound came from ahead, and a group of vampire bats bared their fangs and claws and rushed towards them. Their eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty red light in the darkness, and their sharp claws were like gleaming blades.

Yuan Bao's lips curled into a confident smile as he calmly used the Spirit Cloud Steps, his figure instantly becoming ghostly and elusive.

The vampire bats missed their target and frantically flew and circled around in place, letting out angry cries.

Yuan Bao seized the opportunity, flicked his wrist, and unleashed the Mind Net like lightning, shouting, "Watch how I deal with you this time!" The net instantly enlarged in the air, precisely enveloping the swarm of bats.

The bats trapped in the net struggled desperately, but were tightly entangled by the special material of the net and could not move.

Yuan Bao silently recited the incantation, and the Mind Net instantly burst into flames. Accompanied by a shrill scream, the bat slowly burned to charred black and turned to ashes on the ground. This net yielded 500 points.

Yuan Bao wanted to try the electric shock, so he continued forward. The cave passage on the left that led to the secret chamber last time had collapsed and was blocked by a large rock.

This time, they could only go deeper into the cave on the right. They came to a relatively wide area. The top of the cave was flashing red light. Yuan Bao did the same thing, lighting a torch and throwing it into the air.

This attracted another swarm of vampire bats. Yuan Bao didn't move; he flew directly out of the electric net and caught all the bats, tightening the net around them.

The bats were all electrocuted and, amidst their struggles and shrill screams, turned into charred corpses. This round earned another 500 points, bringing the total to 2600 points.

After killing the bats twice, Yuan Bao concluded: "Hmm, I should use electric shocks more often in the future, as the smell and smoke are not as strong."

Hesitating whether to continue going in, he activated his "Heavenly Eye" perception, spreading his perception out like an invisible net.

As her perception deepened, she felt more and more clearly that the environment in the cave below was becoming increasingly eerie and sinister, as if countless eyes were staring at her in the darkness, sending chills down her spine.

Yuan Bao shuddered, and after a moment's thought, he decided that today's trial was about over and it would be best to leave.

So Yuan Baodi followed the path he had come from, exited the mysterious cave, and returned to the villa at the foot of the mountain.
