Shang thought that assumption to be stupid, but he could see where they were coming from.

Yes, the barbarians were very simple-minded, almost like beasts. They even lived in tribes and just followed the strongest one blindly.

"So, you think that the barbarians' minds become more similar to beasts," Shang said.

"Correct," George said. "We don't know it yet, which is why we are running the tests. Some deaths or some heightened aggression would be acceptable, in my opinion, but decreasing the warrior's intelligence would not make them stronger but weaker."

"They wouldn't even be able to create any sort of True Path, which would force them to follow the barbarian path to the end, which means they will just become beasts. That's not our goal. We want warriors."

"I see where you're coming from," Shang said, "but I really doubt that side effect actually exists. I've been using that technique for ten years, and I haven't changed."

George and Jerald raised an eyebrow each.

"Okay, bad choice of words," Shang said. "What I meant is that I didn't become dumber."

"We know," Jerald said, "but the things we saw in those barbarians' minds are very worrisome. We saw their lives and how horribly they performed in school. They were being taught the most basic things, but they still-"

"Wow, wait a second," Shang said as he interrupted Jerald. "What did you just say? Schools?"

Jerald furrowed his eyebrows. "Yes, schools. We've seen the schools in their minds."

"What schools?" Shang asked in shock. "There are no schools for barbarians."

"Shang, we've read their minds. We saw the schools. There are schools," Jerald said.

"No, there are not!" Shang shouted. "I've been at the northern border where all the elite and talented barbarians go, and not even one of them talked about any sort of school. How would schools even be possible? Everyone lives in a stupid fucking tribe with the most backward ideologies."

"I led over ten of the most talented barbarians for months, and I've taught them basically everything they know. They didn't even know about the most basic concepts, and I had to teach them all of these concepts."

"Even more, they learned the concepts pretty quickly as soon as they actually listened to me."
