Chapter 130 - I Should Be the Rookie King of the Year (3)

“The country is supporting new-energy mechanical pets because resources are too scarce,” Ming Zhu said excitedly, “These mechanical pets are more for domestic use. Its combat strength isn’t high, so its spiritual energy consumption is very low. Moreover, it can automatically absorb the energy of the world, such as electricity, wind energy, and light energy to replenish its consumption.”

“…” Wang Ye, “Is it expensive?”

“Not very. For a mechanical pet like the Black Warrior No.1, the tax on it is low thanks to the national welfare. It’s less than five million. For professional beastmasters, they can afford it.”

“…”

He was just down and out.

To think it was so expensive.

“Moreover, the new-energy locomotive pets have a lot of benefits,” Ming Zhu pointed at the steel building outside, “In a place like Qixing City, if a pet wants to fly independently, it needs to go through a series of procedures and have a flying license. Those are not required for the new-energy mechanical pets.”

“That being said, it’s more to domestic entertainment, integrating uses in water, land, and air,” Ming Zhu shrugged, “In front of a real pet, its combat ability is very poor. If it’s a battle between pets of the same combat power, they can only fight against Transcendent first-class pets.”

Wang Ye nodded.

It seemed that mechanical pets were divided into various uses as well as civilian use.

“If you’re interested in a mechanical pet in the future…” Ming Zhu thought for a moment, “You can consider getting a combat-type one. The upper limit of a mechanical pet is very high. It has high combat power and there are many options for its evolution path. The only drawback is that it costs a lot of money.”

“I’m not considering it for the time being,” Wang Ye cleared his throat.

“After becoming a professional beastmaster, the country will provide a lot of subsidies,” Ming Zhu consoled, “You’ll have a lot of ways to earn money. You don’t have to worry about not having any. With your status, once a new secret realm appears, you will be prioritized to explore beforehand and find a lot of treasures. Or, you can choose one or two secondary classes. There are a lot of ways to earn money.”

Wang Ye looked at the distant Qixing City.

It felt like a completely different civilization from Anping County.

Ming Zhu was very interested in introducing Wang Ye to all sorts of information.

“For example, my secondary class is alchemy,” Ming Zhu said with her hands spread out, “We’re specialized in refining pet equipment. After becoming a professional beastmaster, one will have to choose one or two secondary classes, usually based on one’s pets or talent. The country has rules on this. Since we’ve already become professional, we can’t be too weak in all aspects.”

“The country also needs the beastmasters to have secondary classes to promote the development of all walks of life. A deity-rank beastmaster usually has one or two expert-level secondary classes. The powerful ones can even cultivate their secondary classes to the grandmaster rank.”

“Right, you probably don’t know too much about the ranks of beastmasters, right?” Ming Zhu Thought for a moment, “After all, you didn’t go to university. Usually, the university teachers would teach you these things. Ordinary beastmasters wouldn’t care about such things either, let alone investigators. You guys are probably more to the “it’s good to have a rank, but it’s fine if we don’t have one” mentality.”

“…” Wang Ye.

“Let me give you a brief explanation,” Ming Zhu looked at the time, “It’s about half an hour’s journey, and the time is just right for me to finish explaining everything. Big sister Lin probably only told you the details of the assessment, but she might have forgotten all the basic information.”

“Beastmasters are generally divided into three types. First are the rookie beastmasters. Rookie beastmasters are those who have very poor talent or those who haven’t awakened a talent but can still raise pets. Most beastmasters are this type.”

“Then there are the amateur beastmasters. These are beastmasters who mainly focus on their secondary classes. They have a certain talent for raising pets, and their talent isn’t bad either. After graduating from the beastmaster universities, most will choose to become amateur beastmasters.”

“Then there’s the professional beastmasters. These beastmasters focus on raising their pets and developing their talents. They are divided into professional classes! Their abilities are super strong and they can deal with all kinds of disasters. They are extremely strong, and thus have an important say in things,” Ming Zhu paused for a moment, “In today’s society, their status is very high.”

“Professional beastmasters are divided into six ranks, representing the only six countries in the world today. Generally, the ranks are determined according to the pet’s level of the beastmaster and the beastmaster’s talent level.”

“Above the six ranks are the master-rank beastmasters. A master-rank beastmaster has a level 7 pet. The beastmaster’s talent level and spiritual power level have to reach level 7 as well.”

“Above the master rank is the deity rank.”

“Above the deity rank is the supreme rank, which means one has to have a level 9 Supreme-class pet. However, the supreme rank is long gone in history in our country,” Ming Zhu shook her head, “In today’s society, the deity rank is the limit. Without the divine beast totem, it’s impossible to raise a Supreme-class pet.”

Wang Ye was deep in thought.

“After passing the professional assessment, the beastmaster’s rank will be raised automatically after the level of the pet and the beastmaster’s talent level has reached the requirements. You won’t have to participate in another assessment anymore. So, the professional assessment is very important.”

“Your investigators might not think much of it, but to other beastmasters, this is a lifelong matter that concerns their future development,” Ming Zhu shook her head helplessly, “Moreover, there aren’t many opportunities to take the professional assessment. Either way, grasp this chance.”

“The rewards for the Xinghai Province’s professional assessment are also very good. Compared to other provinces, it’s even slightly easier.”

“Though, compared to the professional assessment of other countries, where one can become a professional beastmaster as long as one reaches a certain level and obtain the approval of the divine beast totem, the difficulty of the professional assessment for beastmasters in our country is almost on the level of a disaster. It can’t be helped, though. After all, if we don’t select the most powerful beastmasters..” Ming Zhu waved her hand.

The country would’ve been long gone.

After hearing this, Wang Ye felt that it made sense that Dongli Country was able to resist the dark fog for so many years without the help of the divine beast totem. It had yet to be completely devoured by the dark fog till now.
