Lu Yao clicked on Professor White Cat and typed above its head.
—What are commoners?
A startled expression popped up above the white cat's head, and it said, "Commoners are the lowest level of Spirit Race society, but they are also one of the most important parts of the Spirit Realm, because Spirit People are cultivated and transformed from commoners."
"The function of our Rose Design Institute is to create cemeteries, and use those cemeteries to incubate the dead into commoners who meet the basic requirements. This incubation process requires Psionic Energy as support. Ideally, we collect Spirit Race corpses and information. That way, we can obtain more outstanding commoners—but we also know that there are very few of those, so ordinary corpses and Undead will also do. They simply require more Psionic Energy to modify, and their growth potential will be a little lower."
After careful questioning, Lu Yao more or less figured out the social structure of the Spirit Realm's population.
By status, from low to high, it was commoners, Spirit People, and Spirit Race Rulers—that is, the five ranks of Spirit Race usually known as dukes, marquises, counts, viscounts, and barons.
The largest group was commoners. Commoners had to undergo training and cultivation in the Commoner Camp before they could become Spirit People, similar to specialized vocational skill training. Among Spirit People, even the highest-level Spirit Soldiers were still civilians. They could only attach themselves to a certain Spirit Race noble and had no way to enter the ruling class.
The five ranks of Spirit Race had basically monopolized the power hierarchy. Aside from them, external ruling groups could also be absorbed and become Spirit Race. The newly emergent life groups incubated and created by the Spirit King, such as dragons and giants, also had this opportunity.
