The real world was so complex, with countless hidden and visible layers. It was impossible to throw in every element one sensed all at once. First, one had to establish a basic framework, arranging all kinds of elements in an orderly fashion and putting each in its proper place.

First, the lands covered by the Abyssal Spirit Net; second, the Shadow Domain that it appeared to control but overlooked right under its nose.
That division alone could produce an endless number of papers. Tai Yu had no desire to get tangled up in the details for now. He had a question instead:
Using this simple binary classification, where did the Outer Domain Species belong?
Setting aside Tai Yu's own views for the moment, judging by Pool One's current research direction, the United Laboratory—or rather, the Xi Corporation behind it... No, don't confuse himself... The research led by the Initial Awakening Society clearly had not placed the Outer Domain Species into either category.

Stone Soul was a very typical Outer Domain Species. It matched people's established impressions, and it was relatively orderly to study, with distinct stages and
