In fact, Li Shi Ying knew something that the original body didn't. Which was...the
existence of another realm apart from lower and upper realm.
Surprising right? In light novel "XXX" there was a middle realm which was something that only a handful of people knew in lower realm. The female lead only knew about this fact later because the female lead parents was actually from middle realm.
Middle realm was a realm which was more 'elite' than lower realm. This realm was occupied by human but their strength was a lot more frightening compared to the human in lower realm.
Just imagine in the lower realm every baby born without cultivation power. Only until they reach three years old could they cultivate. And usually they need 1 year to step into beginner stage.
Now. In middle realm even a newborn baby had already in senior stage. SENIOR STAGE YOU KNOW! That is the stage of the strongest person in Qiu country then doesn't it mean even a single newborn baby in middle realm could already kill all people in Qiu Country?
Yes even though Qiu country is a small country in lower realm maybe like Singapore (in term of their country territory size), but still wouldn't that be crazy if a newborn baby in middle realm was already strong enough to conquer a country such as Qiu Country?
The female lead parents were chased to death in middle realm and they escape to the lower realm before doing something to made their daughter be known as the Qiu Country general's daughter.
Li Shi Ying knew how horrible the power of someone from middle realm because of that she will absolutely not offend someone who had relationship with people in middle realm.
Unlike higher realm who prohibited their people to be involved with people in lower realm, in the middle realm there wasn't such rule.
But people in middle realm thought lower realm was a worthless place. Well they still did took some treasure which only lower realm had sometimes but people of middle realm rarely be involved with people in lower realm.
For another comparison, in lower realm taming a low ranked spiritual beast and made a contract with it was considered very very good. Even a rich noble child could only had a low ranked spiritual beast as their contracted beast. Only someone like royalty or famous sect had a high ranked beast as contracted beast.
But, in middle realm almost everyone had middle ranked spiritual beast as a contracted beast. Usually rich people and influental people had a divine beast as their contracted beast and a royalty or someone from a well known sect would have a sacred beast as their contracted beast.
What a great difference!! Because of that Li Shi Ying who already plan to swindle few divine beasts and sacred beast, really didn't dare to mess with someone from middle realm.
Well if you had more than 1 sacred beast and more than 10 divine beasts maybe you could stroll around as you wish in middle realm (on account that you are a cripple who really had no cultivation energy).
Usually people either in lower realm or middle realm only contracted 1 spiritual beasts. Unless they are a powerful figure who could contract more than 5 spiritual beasts, no one would waste their money to buy more than 1 spiritual beast.
Every spiritual beast who made contract with human must absolutely be tamed first by the beast tamer because such contract could only be made when the spiritual beast accepted the contract.
But such a proud beast wouldn't want to bow their head and become a human's servant. This is why a beast tamer was a precious job.
Beast tamer would use their strange technique to made those spiritual beasts became docile and obedient. Until those beasts agreed to make a contract with human.
So in another word, a beast tamer job is to made spiritual beasts docile and obedient.
In lower realm, beast tamer was rare. Only 1 out of 100 people in lower realm was a beast tamer. But in middle realm, 1 out of 10 was a beast tamer.
Want another comparison? Fine. In lower realm, a pharmacist was 1 out of 10 people. In middle realm, every kid was taught pharmacy. So every single person in middle realm was a pharmacist. It was a normal job there.
In lower realm, alchemist was considered even more rare than beast tamer and pharmacist which was only 1 out of 1000. In middle realm, 1 out of 100 people was an alchemist.
The only job which was considered extremely rare both in lower realm and middle realm was a translator. A translator....in lower realm there were only 7 people up until today.
In middle realm there were only 10 translators. Whereas in higher realm....there wasn't any.
