So the author of this book is an official from Yuqi Grand Duchy.
Yun Xi only looked at the application requirements for Baron, Viscount, and Count. She didn't bother with Marquis and Duke below, as they were completely out of her reach.
Of course, even if she met the conditions, she wouldn't apply for a noble title.
Once you join a major power, you have to sign a strict contract. This is different from simply registering your household. If she officially became a noble of Yuqi Grand Duchy, it would be very difficult for Yun Xi to leave later.
She joined the Flower Country's official organization before because they had almost no restrictions and didn't force contracts.
Even for tasks like defending their homeland, they were free to accept.
Of course, this was only for ordinary members.
For members who received substantial support and investment from the official organization, it would be impossible not to sign a contract. No one would invest in someone who might betray or leave.
Yun Xi had no money in her previous life, and she didn't join any factions on the Godfall Continent. In this life, she would compromise even less.
Correspondingly, she didn't need the official organization's extensive resource support, nor would she be signing a strict contract with the Flower Country's officials.
Afterward, Yun Xi flipped through other ordinary books, especially rereading the common Strange Creatures of the Shuyu Plains.
On the Godfall Continent, the air was filled with Spiritual Energy and Strange Energy. Strange Creatures were species born from the pollution of Strange Energy.
In the wild, in places with dense Strange Energy, Strange Creatures would grow wildly.
Cities where humans lived were basically chosen by human ancestors from places with the weakest Strange Energy, ensuring that humans could live there for a long time without being affected.
This was also why the distances between cities and villages were so far apart.
However, no matter how weak the Strange Energy was, one could not consume food contaminated by it.
If contaminated food was consumed for a long time, one's physique would permanently decrease, and their body would be gradually consumed by the Strange Energy, ultimately leading to death or 'evolution' into a Human Skin Fiend.
The common Strange Creatures in the Shuyu Plains were of two types: Animal Fiends and Human Skin Fiends.
Animal Fiends: 'Rat Fiend', 'Cockroach Fiend', 'Spider Fiend'...
Human Skin Fiends: 'Short-eared Fiend', 'Red-browed Fiend', 'Beautiful Fiend'...
Yun Xi carefully memorized the characteristics of various Human Skin Fiends to avoid mistaking them if she encountered them in the wild.
After a long while, she closed the last page of the book and slowly exhaled.
Seeing that the second internal test was about to end, Yun Xi tidied up briefly, put all the supplies she bought today into her Storage Bag, and prepared to take them back to Blue Star.
Especially these basic ordinary books, she had already memorized them completely and no longer needed them.
Ordinary books did not have 'patent contracts'. Yun Xi planned to resell them to the Flower Country's officials.
Although the Godfall Continent was vast and not many people would be born in the Shuyu Plains, some of the content in the books was universal, such as the characteristics of certain Strange Creatures.
Yun Xi was not short of money, nor did she want to earn money from the officials' hard work. She would sell them back to the officials at the same price she bought them.
As for giving them away for free, that was impossible.
Selling them was a normal transaction. Giving them away would make her seem a bit foolish, and she might even be suspected.
At midnight, the internal test ended.
After returning to Blue Star, it was noon.
Yun Xi's phone kept buzzing. She chatted briefly with her friends, then got up and headed to the official building.
As soon as the knowledge-based books were brought out, they received attention from the official personnel.
Chen Nana, who was responsible for inviting Yun Xi before, quickly arrived with a leader who looked like a middle-aged man.
Upon hearing that Yun Xi had only spent a few hundred Silver Coins on these books, both of them were overjoyed.
Although they had also dispatched important members to purchase supplies from the Godfall Continent, knowledge-based books were simply too expensive, costing tens or hundreds of Gold Coins at every turn.
They could still afford Silver Coins, but Gold Coins were becoming a strain.
These books were all in unfamiliar languages. With Yun Xi's simple introduction, Chen Nana and the middle-aged leader understood that these were a set of basic books from a certain region in the Godfall Continent.
Such established unfamiliar languages could not be fake.
"Miss Yun, thank you for bringing back these books. They are very useful for our understanding of the Godfall Continent. We will pay the price you quoted." After checking the books, the middle-aged leader was very straightforward and didn't even bargain.
Yun Xi was not surprised by this. In her previous life, she had traveled through many regions, and the prices of books in the Shuyu Plains were indeed quite cheap.
The transaction went smoothly. After receiving the Silver Coins, Yun Xi did not linger and left directly.
The middle-aged leader looked at her retreating back, wanting to say something but stopping.
"Director, should we invite Miss Yun to join the Special Operations Bureau? She was able to obtain so many Silver Coins, so she must have had a fortunate encounter in the game," Chen Nana asked.
"Not for now. After all, she wasn't part of the system from the start; she was just invited to join a few days ago as a university student.
We don't fully understand what this game is about yet, and it's currently shut down, so we can't log in. Let's talk about it after we learn more," the person in charge said, regaining his composure and pinching his brow.
Chen Nana frowned slightly upon hearing this.
Recently, they had invited many 'official sorcerers' and 'official warriors' to join the organization.
She understood the leader's thinking. These individuals were extremely numerous, and their character varied greatly. To join the Special Operations Bureau and receive substantial resource cultivation, a thorough screening process was indeed necessary.
However, she felt that Yun Xi definitely had the qualifications.
Setting aside her strength for the moment, her character was certainly not an issue. After all, she hadn't inflated the price of those expensive books.
"But that doesn't stop you from continuing to foster a good relationship with her. If it's convenient, when the game next comes online, you can ask her to help procure some supplies. Don't skimp on her commission either," the leader added, as if remembering something.
"Okay, I understand," Chen Nana replied.
After Yun Xi took a taxi home, she was surprised to find a figure waiting outside her door.
It was Yun Linlin.
"Yun Xi, where did you go? I thought you'd be home since the game shut down."
"I'm here to fulfill the contract!" Yun Linlin waved the contract scroll in her hand.
Yun Xi... Is she really that eager?
