Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

China.

North City.

Western school.

“Students, the beastmaster selection conference in China held once every three years has officially begun.”

“Savage beasts roam the world, and the Great Cataclysm is about to begin. The fate of mankind will be in your hands.”

“The era of beastmasters has arrived. This is an era that belongs to all of you.”

On the field’s rostrum, a white-haired old man was lecturing the young people below solemnly. There was an imposing air between his brows.

“This is the best era, and this is the worst era. In the thousands of years of human development, we have been attacked by savage beasts. In times of crisis, many renowned beastmasters have been born, unrivaled prodigies such as the Yaksha King, the Giant Spirit King, and the Spirit Separation King. They have guided the human civilization for generations to come.

“Now that the long night is coming again, the torch of enlightenment is in your hands. Dear students, this era is yours. The flame of human civilization is passed down in your hands.”

Listening to the white-bearded principal’s passionate speech, the young men and women on the field felt their blood boil, and they were filled with anticipation at the same time.

“It’s finally starting. I’ve been waiting for this day for ten years. I want to become a beastmaster.”

They all hoped to pass this beastmaster examination and become a true beastmaster.

The colorful flags fluttered on the stage, and spring was in full bloom.

A young man below the stage had his eyes lit up.

“I’ve been waiting for this day for so long since I came to this alternate dimension from Earth. It has finally arrived.”

Su Xing muttered to himself in the crowd.

He was originally an executive of a listed company. By chance, he came to this alternate dimension. His originally extravagant life had instantly turned into a life of meditating, and he even had the urge to resist a natural disaster from this alternate dimension — the attack of savage beasts.

A hundred years ago, the alternate dimension opened, and something mysterious swept through the world. Countless creatures mutated one after another, turning into powerful savage beasts.

Even the mountains, rivers, and lakes all possessed these extraordinary powers, turning into savage beasts, stirring up waves of bloody storms on this continent.

This was an extremely dark era. All the weapons that humans were proud of were ineffective against savage beasts. Even nuclear weapons with astonishing power could only cause a small amount of damage.

What was even more serious was the nuclear radiation caused by the nuclear weapons war, which caused savage beasts to mutate twice and possess even more power.

At a critical moment, some people ignited the spark of hope in the darkness. They awakened their own abilities and obtained the powers of familiars, allowing them to fight other savage beasts.

Along with a series of touching stories, the history of mankind didn’t disappear. They finally gained a firm footing in this Great Cataclysm, establishing city after city, and thriving to this day.

This was the story of beastmasters.

This was also the era of beastmasters.

By becoming a beastmaster, you could have a lofty social status and be admired by others.

As your strength continued to rise, your status would also rise, and your voice in this world would become more important.

In the Greater Thousand Alliance established by various countries in the world, there were three beastmasters among the five people in charge.

It was precisely because of this that everyone wished to become a beastmaster who was respected by others.

However, to become a beastmaster, one needed to be extremely talented.

There were countless beastmaster students within the borders of China. The beastmaster selection was held every three years, but the few were selected each time.

Take the western school Su Xing was at for example. Every year, three out of a hundred people would awaken, and that would wrap up a year of selection.

A wave of exclamations suddenly sounded from the crowd.

“Spirit control in the sky.”Li Xuan

Following the middle-aged man’s explosive shout, the square was instantly enveloped by a wave of golden light.

The golden light shone, and in an instant, the entire southern school square was covered in a brilliant golden color. Along with the golden light, there were also crisscrossing beams within.

Moreover, one could even hear the roars of savage beasts.

“Stop!”

The man shouted explosively, and the roars of savage beasts instantly quieted down.

Just a moment ago, it was as if they were like people on the ancient battlefield who heard the sound of Buddha.

This was an extremely profound magical artifact.

The youths on the field were all shocked by this great divine ability. Instantly, waves of discussion came from below.

“Who is that uncle dressed in the military uniform? He’s so handsome, I really want to give birth to a monkey for him.”

“What are you thinking about, kid? He is our country’s beastmaster dean, Feng Qiji. You’d better learn how to tease your little bird first.”

…

The two students standing in front of Su Xing joked.

“Silence.” Standing on the stage, Feng Qiji looked at the crowd with cold eyes.

The students below the stage stopped their discussion and looked at the dean.

Feng Qiji looked at the white-bearded principal at the side. The principal nodded slightly at him.

“The beastmaster selection will begin now. Close your eyes and quietly feel the worldly Qi.”

“Remember, you only have one chance.”

As soon as he said that, the students quieted down and felt the worldly Qi.

After all, this was the moment that would determine their fate in the future. No one dared to be careless.

Su Xing closed his eyes and felt the worldly Qi. Many images appeared in his mind. They came from the ancient battlefield. A man and a beast were fighting with their lives. It was as if the world was about to collapse.

An unknown creature with several wings on its body smiled and quickly left.

Suddenly, golden light shone around his body.

This was a sign that he was about to awaken.

A wave of excitement rose from the bottom of his heart. He was about to awaken his beastmaster talent!

After awakening his beastmaster talent, Su Xing would be able to head to the Imperial Capital’s Beastmaster Academy to receive education and become a true beastmaster.

At that time, his status in this foreign world would skyrocket. Whether it was in politics or business, it would bring great benefits.

[Ding, host’s beastmaster talent has been detected. The familiar system has been activated…]

[Congratulations, host, for obtaining an SSS grade talent, humanoid contract]

Upon hearing this, he was overjoyed.

The system notification had finally appeared. With his rare talent and the cheat-like system, he would be able to do whatever he wanted in this foreign world in the future.

He immediately opened the system and checked his talent.

[Humanoid Contract]:

If the contracted spirit beast doesn’t have a human form, it will automatically receive a random human form.]

When Su Xing saw this, he stiffened slightly to show his respect.

What kind of fucking perverted system is this!

It suits me too well!

In his previous life, as an executive of the company, Su Xing had taken care of many clients. There were countless women, and he had tried all kinds of things.

However, he had never experienced this humanoid familiar before.

He was eager to try it out.

Unfortunately, when he woke up and wanted to check his other talents, the system seemed to have read his mind, and a window popped up.

[The other talents of the system have not been released yet. Host, please cultivate more and explore your talents. Looking forward to your performance, Dear.]

…

After the awakening ceremony ended, the white-bearded principal looked at the crowd on the field and revealed a satisfied smile.

“Not bad, not bad. There are actually five students who have awakened this time. This kind of result would be considered pretty good in any year.”

At the side, the solemn face of the man in the military uniform also relaxed. It seemed that he was extremely satisfied with this result.

After awakening, Su Xing became one of the five awakened ones.

The others weren’t so lucky. They had waited bitterly for decades for this result.

Failing the beastmaster selection also determined their fate for the rest of their lives, and they could only live an ordinary life. Many of them even cried out in grief.

The surrounding students looked at Su Xing bathed in golden light, their faces filled with envy and jealousy.

“Su Xing, you’re awesome! Congratulations!”

“Don’t forget us old classmates when you awaken and become a beastmaster.”

“What do you mean Su Xing? Call me Brother Su. Brother Su, do you remember the cheat sheet you lent me a month ago? Brother Su, don’t forget me in the future!”

“Me too! Me too! We’re good brothers who slept on the same bed and read dirty books together. Brother Su, when you’re rich in the future, bring your lil’ brother over here along with you!”

There was a wave of flattery around him when he awoken.
