Lorna Resh dripped a drop of blood onto the female stone.

Soon, the female stone emitted a dazzling and bright light, but the light quickly dissipated.

Grom laughed and said, "Congratulations, excellent fertility."

"Thank you, clan shaman." Rona had already tested it with the female stone, so she wasn't surprised by the result.

She looked back at Su Yan, and for some reason, she had felt a sense of apprehension towards her ever since she first met her.

“Suyan Milut only registered for her coming-of-age ceremony two days ago. It really surprised me then, and I only met her in person today. She’s a very beautiful female. Come, good girl. Let the tribal shaman see how fertile you are,” Grom said with a kind smile.

Su Yan walked over. Her clothes didn't fit properly, so she walked with a loose, empty gait. The gazes that fell on her were not only curious but also filled with a sense of shame and indignation.

Upon reaching the female stone, they asked the tribal shaman, "If someone is already pregnant, can the female stone detect it?"

Grom looked at her in surprise, his gaze falling down to her abdomen. "You're pregnant?"

Su Yan wasn't sure what the other person would do if they knew she was pregnant, so she didn't rush to admit it. "I was just asking out of curiosity."

Seeing her calm and composed expression, Grom replied, "The female stone only checks fertility; pregnancy will not affect the test results."

"Oh." Su Yan didn't ask anything more. She took out a bone needle from the pouch hanging at her waist and pricked her finger.

Crimson drops of blood fell onto the female stone.

The female stone did not react.

Su Yan: "...?"

Grom rubbed his old eyes, thinking they were seeing things, and looked at the female stone again, but there was still no reaction.

"How is that possible! Even the lowest level of fertility, if it's male, will still produce some kind of response."

This was the first time anyone had ever seen anything like it; there wasn't even a glimmer of light.

"Is the female stone broken?" Lin Lang exclaimed.

This possibility certainly exists.

Grom immediately replaced it with another female stone.

However, even after switching to a different female stone, there was still no reaction.

Su Yan wondered if it was a problem with the soul, since she wasn't actually a guinea pig.

“In that case, we can only use inferior fertility for now.” Grom didn’t hesitate, and judging from her appearance, she was also of inferior fertility.

Su Yan's expression turned somewhat unpleasant. "You didn't even get a positive result, so how come I'm considered inferior?"

"Su Yan! You are not allowed to talk back to the clan shaman," Xiao Luo whispered from below the stage.

"No reaction? Maybe I have the highest fertility, the kind that gets pregnant with the slightest touch, which is beyond what the female stone can predict."

Grom's eyes turned slightly cold. She had never been questioned before. "The possibility you mentioned is not entirely out of the question."

Su Yan continued, "In that case, my fertility level should be pending. Wouldn't it be more convincing to decide based on my future fertility?"

Grom was surprised by her ability to argue. "Where did you grow up?"

Su Yan replied, "The Forest of Beasts. I originally had eight older brothers, but they are all dead, and my mother is also dead."

"What?! Your mother gave birth to nine in one pregnancy?!" Grom exclaimed in surprise. Because the highest number of babies born in a single pregnancy among all the orcs was only seven.

“Yes,” Su Yan replied.

Grom was shocked.

Everyone was surprised; usually, babies have two or three offspring, but those with low fertility might only have one.

Of course, it's also possible that a child born with only one child might be exceptionally gifted and domineering during the fetal stage, eventually devouring all their siblings.

"I am my mother's only daughter, and I will inherit my mother's fertility!" Su Yan said seriously.
