Normal Monster Beast are ranked from 1st to 9th rank and are sub divided into four stages

Initial Phase\u003e\u003eMiddle Phase\u003e\u003eLate Phase\u003e\u003eFinal Phase

If a Monster Beast surpasses the 9th rank then they can become a Spirit Beast

Monster Beast\u003e\u003eSpirit Beast

Spirit Beasts are divided into 7 main stages:

Monster Soldier\u003e\u003eMonster Elite\u003e\u003eMonster General\u003e\u003eMonster King\u003e\u003eMonster Emperor\u003e\u003eMonster Venerable\u003e\u003e((Calamity Lord))

All these main stages are divided into 4 sub stages:

Early\u003e\u003eMiddle\u003e\u003eLate\u003e\u003ePeak

The higher rank they reach the higher Intelligence they will posses, It is not too rare for a spirit beast to posses high intelligence which is enough to talk like humans

After one reaches Calamity Lord they can cultivate like other cultivators and their cultivation stage will be same as others but they will not have to start from zero their initial cultivation stage will be Sky Body Formation Stage

The strength comparison of Monster Beast, Spirit Beast and others is like that

9th rank Monster Beast's strength is approximately equal to the strength Dao Comprehension Stage cultivators

Spirit Beast strength levels:-

Monster Soldier = Human Venerable Stage

Monster Elite = Earth Venerable Stage

Monster General = Heaven Venerable Stage

Monster King = Core Forming Stage

Monster Emperor = Golden Core Stage

Monster Venerable = Core Breaking Stage

Calamity Lord = Sky Body Formation Stage

The comparison above is when an average monster beast meets a genius cultivator of the equal cultivation stage and if the cultivator is also average then the monster beast have high chances to win

For example if an average Monster King meets an average Core Forming Stage cultivator then the Spirit Beast can easily win the battle because of their tough physique they have the advantage in battle

Once a Spirit Beast reaches Calamity Lord stage they can transform into a humanoid form

_____________

Beast Race or Demi-Human Race looks similar to Monster Race but they are different

Beast Race or Demi-Human:

In Beast Race the newborn baby is like a human baby with some features resembling a monster beast like having animal like ears, tail, eyes.. etc and as their strength rises they becomes capable of hiding these distinctive features and can completely look like humans

But with training they can also transform in a humanoid beast form which can increase their battle strength by a lot

Monster Race:

Genetically Monster beast and Spirit Beast are both type of monster race whether when they have low intelligence or high intelligence

But the Monster Beast and spirit beast that are born with high intelligence does not accept monster beast or spirit beast with low intelligence as their own

If a Monster Beast gains high intelligence or born with it then its decedents will also have high intelligence than usual

For example the descendants of a Calamity Lord will always have high intelligence even when they do not have humanoid form because of their weak cultivation base

In the end Monster Race consists of Monster Beast and Spirit Beast with high intelligence

Note: The biggest difference between Monster Race and Beast Race or Demi-Human is Monster Race have monster core to cultivate while Beast Race or Demi-Human Race have dantian to cultivate

Note; Many from Monster Race looks similar to Beast Race or Demi-Human Race because of their humanoid form
