"Tianyu really knows a lot . " Liushan commented . "But how can you be sure she has one for each applicant?"

"Because there's no guarantee they'll all stick together . Not every group of six are friends and even if they are, there's still no guarantee . It would benefit them more if they tried to tame demonic beasts separately also, they could be scattered when trying to subdue one . If there were any less contracted beats, the officer wouldn't be able to keep track of everyone and their scores . And having them self-report is also not ideal, since they could lie . " Shen Tianyu elaborated her reasoning since the other asked .

"That is indeed a good line of reasoning . But what if she had a contracted beast that can force someone to tell the truth?"

Shen Tianyu shrugged . "Then, I'm just wrong . It's just an a.s.sumption based on what I know, it's not like I'll insist I was right when I'm not . In fact, I hate people like that . And they're such a pain to deal with . "

"You're quite reasonable and open-minded for your age . "

"Really? Are you saying that because you didn't expect a foreigner ot have such a mindset? I think anyone with a decent upbringing wouldn't be so stubborn about what they think is right . " She casually placed one of her hand on her hip . 'Well . I was more mature than most my peers even before I became an adult in my previous life . '

Ningwu Liushan gave off a light laugh . "I'm really curious to see where you grow up . I honestly don't see many with that mindset . "

She widened her eyes in surprise . "Really? Aren't you from a big family? Don't those people st least hammer some common sense into their younger generations so they won't shame the whole clan or something?"

He sighed . "Well, some do . And among those that show it, many of them are only doing it only for that reason . It's to put on a show and isn't their real mindset . They agree with someone and then get back at them for saying they were wrong afterwards . And if anyone asked, they'd give some flimsy reason like they had wronged their clan or some other reason to that affect . " He then peered at her with a tilt of his head . "But, why do you think I'm from a big family?"

Shen Tianyu gave a sly smile . 'As a successful businesswoman, how can I not be able to tell between a rich person from a wealthy family and a nouveau riche?' She leaned a little closer to him but not enough to be inappropriate in the eyes of conservatives . "Do you really want to know?"

"Uh . . . Is there a price tag for this or something of the sort?" He asked in reply .

"Not really . It'll just be a long list but I can summarize for you . " She straightened up .

"Oh?" Bai Longtian, who had not uttered a single noise all this time and seemed content on being treated as nonexistent, spoke to her for the first time . When the two looked over, he had his arms crossed over his chest . "Then, do tell us . We have time . "

"Indeed . The next team probably won't be called upon for a while . " Ningwu Liushan looked back at her .

Shne Tianyu raised a finger as if she was starting a lecture . "Okay then . First off, your clothes give off a slight golden s.h.i.+mmer when you move, suggesting that the fabic themselves are nothing ordinary . In fact, there are golden silk strands interwoven into your clothes right? And in addition to that, there's a light dusting of gold on the whole thing as a finis.h.i.+ng touch that is kept in place by special methods . Plus, the Shu embroidery on them is much more refined and exquisite than anywhere else, meaning the weavers were either paid a lot or were employed by your House . All this attests to the amount of wealth both your families possess, which is a lot . Though gold is not useful in cultivation, because of it's rarity, it's still treated as a treasure to some extent, even by cultivators so to be able to use so much gold just for clothing means you guys are quite well off . Furthermore, wealthy families are big . And big families don't spend so much money on clothes for someone that's just going to get it dirty the day that they wear it, which means your repsective standings in your family is not low . And also, that your cultivation skills are quite excellent to not get them dirty having come so far in the entrance exam . Additionally, both your facial features in addition to your bodies, though you have different looks, are quite refined . Everyone likes beauty, and cultivators and the rich are no exception . Welathy men and women will always have at least one beauty by their side as a concubine or a wife, and as their wealth gets pa.s.sed down, the descendants marry more beauties and the pretty genes acc.u.mulate . That's why each generation of the rich always seem to be more beautiful or handsome than other people and the generations before . Of course, there are always exceptions to this rule, such as common people being pretty or rich descendants being ugly, but the general consensus is that the rich are more beautiful . There are also those that get rich by their looks in a more tactful way, which will then pa.s.s those types of DNA to their descendants if they make it big . Your hair is also very well maintained, something that only those that have the comfort of not having to worry about how to earn a living have . After all, who cares about your appearance if you're not even sure you can have a full stomach tonight? And lastly!" She pointed her finger at them . "The air about both of you practically scream 'I'm from a wealthy and powerful family so don't get close to me casually!' One more than the other on the latter part but you get what I mean, yes?"

Ningwu Liushan could only nod numbly while Bai Longtian just looked at her . Whether he was shocked speechless or just didn't want to talk, she didn't know . But it didn't matter to her .

"What's this . . . 'gene' and 'DNA'  you speak of?" Ningwu Liushan finally found his voice and asked the part that had been bothering him . He had never heard such strange words before, were they from an unknown language from the other continents? Everyone that came to this country spoke the same language as them, but it was quite possible that other civilizations developed in those continents and they didn't know it and that they developed their own language on top of that too .

"Ah . . . " She coughed into her raised fist . 'Well, there's no words that have a similar meaning but . . . Oh well, I'll just shove it on Tian Yu . No one would challenge him on the medicinal arts as the Number One Doctor and Pill Master anyways so no one will know if he actually knows about these things or not!' She dropped her fist and gave a bright smile . "They're basically features that are in one's blood than can be pa.s.sed on to their descendants . " She responded . 'Well, that's actually more the definition of a genome but that's the closest I can think of right now . '

"Oh? I've never heard these words before, might I know from where those words originate?" Ningwu Liushan asked with a flash of curiosity in his eyes .

"Well, you see . An old man told me about these things . " She started and changed her posture into one of deep thought . "One day, I met an old man while picking some herbs and he kept mumbling that he would die of hunger so I gave him my pakced lunch for the day . And he said that he had nothing to give back except his medical knowledge . I kept refusing but he just started talking about all these things while following me as I went about searching for herbs . "

"An hungry old man with immense medical knowledge . . . " Ningwu Liushan fell into deep thought and so did Bai Longtian, seemingly .

'Well . It's not that strange he'd emerge on the verge of death from hunger right? Those old geezers at home are just like him after all . They'd get absorbed in their research and lock themselves up for months on end . If they were lucky, they'd finish the research before they pa.s.sed out from hunger . For the ones less fortunate, they could collapse and fall on top of their precious research . Just because you're a cultivator doesn't mean you can just, not eat at all . It's just that you could not eat for a long time because your body automatically proccesses your spiritual power into energy if there's nothing material to make energy with inside your body . But your spiritual power isn't limitless . Once even that is used up, of course you'd collapse . ' She thought to herself as she casually watched the two young men .
