From the moment Zhang Yi acquired the Divine Enhancement talent, he had an idea: in this life, he would take a unique path and py the css that was scorned by countless pyers in his previous life, known as the most useless css in the Apocalypse world—the Beastmaster!
In the world of Apocalypse, pyer csses are divided into seven categories: Warrior, Assassin, Knight, Mage, Archer, Priest, and Beastmaster.
Anyone who has pyed the game knows the characteristics of these csses, but the only one that stands out is the Beastmaster.
The Beastmaster is unique because it can summon Demonic Beasts to fight for it. The summoned beasts are not restricted by type; they can summon tank-like beasts to absorb damage, mage-like beasts to deal massive damage, or healer-like beasts to provide healing to themselves or teammates. In the te game, a high-level Beastmaster can single-handedly form a team with tanks, healers, and damage dealers!
On the surface, it seems like this css is incredibly powerful, almost as if possessing this css means having all the csses in the Apocalypse world.
Indeed, in the previous life, the "perfect" description (or rather, the hype) of the Beastmaster by the Apocalypse officials led countless pyers to fall into the trap. It was only ter that they realized the Beastmaster css was not just a trap but a divine trap, causing pyers who chose this css to wake up in the middle of the night crying.
Unlike traditional summoners, the Demonic Beasts summoned by a Beastmaster have an independent development system, unreted to the Beastmaster's own attributes.
This means that no matter what beast you cultivate, from the moment you start, you have to allocate half of your resources to it. Like pyers, it needs equipment, learns skills through skill books, and requires pyer EXP to level up, essentially using the resources of one account to py two characters simultaneously.
With equipment enhancement and skills already being a deep pit, many pyers ter found it hard to support themselves, let alone have the energy and resources to nurture a beast—unless they had a mine at home.
The Beastmaster itself is akin to a mage, but to bance the css, the Beastmaster's attribute growth is the lowest among the seven csses, and its skill damage is extremely low, incomparable to a true powerful mage.
Thus, in the previous life, pyers who chose the Beastmaster css, upon discovering its pitfalls and unable to change anything, even considered abandoning the summoning ability and pying it as a mage, but that was not feasible because the Beastmaster developed too slowly.
This led to the Beastmaster css being quickly phased out, becoming the object of rejection by countless pyers. Major teams did not recruit Beastmaster pyers, and no one wanted to team up with them. The only fate awaiting Beastmasters was extinction.
Later, seeing even one Beastmaster among a hundred pyers was rare.
However, the css itself is very strong; as long as the resources keep up, the powerful beasts cultivated by a Beastmaster are definitely not weaker than a pyer's strength!
The surviving Beastmasters from the previous life were quite strong, with their casually summoned beasts having combat power that crushed high-ranking pyers on the main city leaderboard!
Knowing full well that this css was a trap, Zhang Yi still chose it because Divine Enhancement could compensate for the equipment enhancement pitfall, and Zhang Yi had enough resources to nurture himself and his summoned beasts.
Since the Beastmaster uses a magic staff as a weapon, Zhang Yi asked Ili to help craft a staff for him.
Ili agreed without hesitation: "Warrior, in light of the many wolf pelts you've collected for me, I promise to do my utmost to craft an extraordinary magic staff for you!"
After a pause, Ili continued, "However, crafting weapons takes time, especially the better the weapon, the longer it takes. Come by around six this evening to pick it up."
Zhang Yi nodded, "Thank you, Master Ili."
After submitting the Collect Wolf Pelts quest ten times, accumuting 20,000 EXP, Zhang Yi successfully reached level 10, with his EXP maxed out. Before completing the css change, a pyer's level cannot exceed 10.
So, after bidding farewell to NPC Ili, Zhang Yi headed to the Mentor Hall located in the center of Hope Town.
As the first pyer to step into the Mentor Hall, many pyers passing by the entrance cast envious gnces at Zhang Yi.
Pyer A: "Damn, isn't the Mentor Hall only accessible at level 10? How did this guy reach level 10 so quickly?"
Pyer B: "Stop yapping, let's hurry and level up. I heard the first hundred pyers to change csses in each Safe Zone get rewards!"
Pyer C: "Really? Then what are we waiting for? Let's go grind some monsters!"
Inside the Mentor Hall, seven mentors, each dressed in different attire, awaited Zhang Yi's arrival, each extending an invitation—
The Warrior mentor, cd in golden armor and wielding a longsword, with a burly physique: "Young man, join the Warrior css, and you'll have a physique like mine, with no shortage of admirers surrounding you!"
The Mage mentor, draped in a white robe, gentle in appearance but passionate at heart: "Learn powerful magic with me; there's no enemy a powerful blizzard can't kill. If there is, then two blizzards will do!"
Before the seven mentors could finish their introductions, Zhang Yi walked straight to the Beastmaster mentor: "Hello, Mentor, I want to become a Beastmaster."
The other six mentors cast surprised gnces, as Zhang Yi hadn't even looked at them.
The chosen Beastmaster mentor nodded: "Very well, I grant you the qualification to become a Beastmaster."
As soon as the words fell, the Beastmaster mentor waved a hand in front of Zhang Yi, and a beam of golden light descended upon his head—
"Ding~ Congratutions on acquiring the css: Beastmaster!"
"Ding~ Congratutions on becoming the first pyer in Safe Zone No. 886 to complete the css change. The system will make an area announcement. Would you like to make your ID public or hidden?"
This time, Zhang Yi chose to make it public without hesitation.
Safe Zone No. 886 Area Announcement: "Ding~ Congratutions to pyer [Yinuo Qingcheng] for successfully changing to the [Beastmaster] css. As the first pyer in Safe Zone No. 886 to complete the css change, you have received a reward: Human Reputation 1200, Gold Coin 1!"
