"Wrong. I'm not Helian Lie's friend. I'm his pig-headed friend." Zheng Dongming wrinkled his nose and smiled.
"What's the difference?" Li Yao stared blankly.
"Pig-Headed friends are referring to … Helian Lie can find me to eat, drink, fly shuttles, play with women … In short, anything that pleases him is not a problem. But if it's to help him beat someone up, and it's to beat a super fierce person whose Actualization Quotient increased by several dozen points within a month, then that's overestimating our friendship!" Zheng Dongming giggled. He moved a step closer to Li Yao.
Li Yao maintained his composure and pulled back a distance. "So you're not here to cause trouble for me?"
Zheng Dongming moved closer once more. It seemed that he didn't notice Li Yao's indifference. With a calm expression, he said, "Do you know how many kinds of historical fine wines the Federation has? How many famous restaurants are there? How many girls joined the entertainment circle last year?"
Li Yao blinked his eyes. He felt that he couldn't keep up with Zheng Dongming's words. "I don't know. So what?"
Zheng Dongming counted with his fingers. He listed one item after another. "According to my calculations, the Federation has more than 1300 kinds of historical fine wines. There are more than 300,000 restaurants that are well known and worth trying. And last year alone, there were no less than 500,000 newly registered actresses, singers, and so on in every major performing arts company!"
Pausing for a moment, Zheng Dongming sighed and said, "You know, I'm a rich kid. There are so many fine wines waiting for me to taste, so many delicacies waiting for me to eat, so many beauties waiting for me to eat, so many beauties waiting for me to eat, as long as I gently cough, they would strip themselves like banshees, then strip me naked and push me onto the bed. Why do you think I'm wasting my precious time to make trouble for you instead of tasting fine wines, delicacies, and beauties?"
Li Yao narrowed his eyes. He looked at him for half a minute and suddenly laughed.
Just as Zheng Dongming was interested in him, Li Yao was also interested in Zheng Dongming at this moment.
Li Yao shrugged. "Fine. If you're not here to cause trouble for me, then what are you here for? Do you want to form a team with me and fight on Devil Flood Dragon Island?"
"That's just one of my purposes," Zheng Dongming said. "My main purpose is to have a simple chat with you. In the words of the ancient Cultivators, I'm here to 'make friends'!"
"You're rich, and I'm poor. We're not from the same world. What's there to talk about?"
"A lot. For example, Student Li Yao, you are very skilled. I heard that you are also very good at magical equipment maintenance. How about it? Have you thought about which school you want to enter and what kind of cultivator you want to become?"
"What kind of cultivator? Are there many types of cultivators? " This was something that Li Yao had never heard of before. He had thought that there was only one type of cultivator — the type that controlled flying swords to fight and kill in the sky.
Zheng Dongming used a "I knew you wouldn't understand. Come, sit down and listen to Young Master Zheng slowly explain" expression. He glanced at Li Yao with an extremely proud expression. He cleared his throat and said, "In the ancient Cultivators' world forty thousand years ago, of course, there was no distinction between types. There was only one type of cultivator. At most, there were Devil Cultivators and Demon Cultivators. However, those didn't count. The only difference was that the source of spiritual energy was different! And in the modern Cultivators' world forty thousand years later, the division of labor in society became more and more refined. Cultivators were also divided into a total of six types. "
He extended his fat right hand and spread open his five fingers. He first moved his thumb. "The first type, which is also the most common and the most ordinary, is the Battle-Type Cultivator. The Battle-Type Cultivator most closely conforms to the traditional impression of cultivators in people's hearts. It's more or less the type that controls flying swords, gallops unhindered, and fights with demon beasts. I'm sure you understand this type. Don't I need to say more?"
Li Yao nodded his head. Of course, he could understand the Battle-Type Cultivator. It was just that he hadn't thought that there would be five different types of cultivators apart from the Battle-Type Cultivator.
What were the mysteries of the remaining five types of cultivators?
Zheng Dongming crooked his index finger and continued, "The second type is the Admin-Type Cultivator. This type of Cultivator doesn't necessarily control extremely powerful spiritual energy, but they do possess top-notch computational ability. They can calculate millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of telepathic thoughts in the blink of an eye. From the enormous amount of information flows, they can find hidden connections and trajectories. Furthermore, they can predict the direction in which things will develop and make the best decision. You definitely won't understand what I'm saying. For example, the mayor of a large city with a population of ten million, the general who controls a magnificent army, the head of a large corporation, the sect master of a sect. These kinds of positions that require overall management are the professions that the Admin-Type Cultivator is most proficient in."
Li Yao's mind raced like lightning. He quickly reacted and couldn't help but nod his head.
Every profession has its own specialization. Having a strong individual combat strength and commanding a magnificent army are two different things. Being able to blow apart a mountain with one punch doesn't mean that one can become a qualified sect master.
The Admin-Type Cultivator indeed has its own value.
Zheng Dongming added, "At present, the Speaker of the Supreme Council of our Xing Yao Federation, Xu Haoran, is an Admin-Type Cultivator who has reached the Yuanying stage. It is said that his brain has been greatly developed. When his spiritual energy is operated to the limit, he can process more than eighty million telepathic thoughts per second. He can be called a 'Humanoid Super Crystal Processor'. Only an expert of this level can lead such a huge country!"
Even Speaker Xu Haoran is an Admin-Type Cultivator? Li Yao couldn't help but have a whole new level of respect for this type of Cultivator.
However, he was very clear about himself. He knew that he wasn't cut out for this type of Cultivator. He quickly came back to his senses and asked, "Then what about the third type?"
Zheng Dongming shook his middle finger and said, "The third type is the 'Research Type' Cultivator. As the name suggests, this type of Cultivator is similar to the Admin-Type Cultivator. They have extremely strong 'computational ability' and can process tens of thousands of telepathic thoughts in the blink of an eye. However, they aren't broad enough. Instead, they like to delve into a specific subject. Research Type Cultivators often become doctors, lawyers, university professors, and academic leaders in various industries. They are very respected by people."
Li Yao said, "Oh." Compared to the Admin-Type Cultivator, the Research Type Cultivator seemed to be somewhat weaker.
Zheng Dongming saw through his disapproval and said seriously, "Don't think that the Research Type Cultivators are useless. The powerful Research Type Cultivators can calculate when a certain star will explode and absorb the energy of the star explosion to cultivate. They can also use a few fragments of fossils to deduce the battle style of a certain powerful ancient beast from billions of years ago. They can even create a brand-new 'Beast Imitation Ancient Martial Art' on the basis of this battle style. Not to mention, there are some terrifying Research Type Cultivators who are obsessed with medicine. They can combine humans and demon beasts and create a 'Beast Soldier' with tyrannical battle strength! Of course, this is illegal in the Federation. However, in some chaotic areas outside the Federation, Research Type Cultivators with such strength are simply god-like existences! "
