Pinghai No.1 Middle School.
At the school gate.
It was right at the time when school let out.
A group of seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys walked through the school gate together, chatting casually.
"The college entrance exam is next month. Have you decided which college you want to apply to?"
"There's only one school in the area, which one do you want to choose?"
"Hehe, maybe he wants to apply to the Beast Tamer Academy in Ningjiang City."
"Dream on, he doesn't even have a trainee beast tamer qualification certificate, he can't even register."
"Tch, you're talking about me, aren't you all the same!"
"Lin Ze, what about you?"
The boy who was being questioned snapped out of his daze and shook his head.
"I haven't decided yet."
The boys who were with him smiled but didn't say anything more.
They were all fully aware of each other's situation.
The students present were all of little talent and had virtually no chance of getting into the Beastmaster Academy.
If nothing unexpected happens, I'll end up getting into an ordinary school, graduating and becoming a diligent office worker, and my life will just pass by uneventfully.
Birds of a feather flock together, and that's why they can get together on a daily basis.
A moment later.
The group parted ways at the intersection.
After waving goodbye, Lin Ze turned around, a bitter look flashing across his face.
He has been in this world for more than half a month now, and he is still a little unaccustomed to it.
I just took a nap, but when I woke up I found that my soul had been transported to a strange world.
Moreover, he has become a high school student who is about to face the college entrance examination.
This encounter is far too bizarre.
For a time, Lin Ze couldn't help but wonder if he was dreaming.
Unfortunately, it turned out that this was not a dream.
He really did time travel.
"I've read so many time-travel novels, I never thought it would happen to me one day."
Lin Ze sighed softly and started walking towards home.
He is not a self-pitying person.
There's no customer service to complain about when it happens, and it can't be reversed by personal will. Since it has already happened, there's no point in dwelling on why it happened.
He could only face reality and force himself to adapt to his new identity and the new world.
Over the past few days, Lin Ze has largely digested the memories left by his predecessor and has gained a preliminary understanding of this world.
Overall, this is a world where extraordinary powers exist.
The Great Cataclysm Hundreds of Years Ago.
Countless ferocious beasts emerged from dimensional rifts, hunting and slaughtering humans, causing widespread devastation.
Humanity fought back and gradually figured out the techniques to tame and control ferocious beasts in the midst of a brutal war.
Thus, the Beastmaster profession was born and took center stage on the world stage.
Subsequently, as countless powerful beast tamers emerged like mushrooms after rain, humanity gradually managed to withstand the onslaught of the ferocious beasts.
They even gained the upper hand in the struggle against ferocious beasts.
To this day, humanity has established a magnificent beast-taming civilization, controlling the most resource-rich regions of this planet.
Therefore.
In this era of beast taming, beast tamers naturally became a symbol of status and class.
It can be said that becoming a Beast Tamer means stepping into the elite class of society.
Almost every young person dreams of becoming a beast tamer.
Lin Ze was no exception.
Putting aside the fact that mastering extraordinary power was something he had dreamed of in his previous life, becoming a beast tamer was the fastest and most effective way to survive better in this world.
Only the strong can control their own destiny—this principle applies to any world.
"Unfortunately... this goal is probably difficult to achieve."
Lin Ze felt a slight bitterness in his heart.
In this world, any young person who is 18 years of age or older can contract their first pet beast.
There are two main factors that affect the strength of an initial pet.
First, the strength of the soul.
The higher the soul strength, the higher the level cap of the pets that can be contracted, and the wider the range of choices.
Second, financial resources.
Pets are quite valuable.
Even the weakest Tier 1 pet beast costs tens of thousands.
Pets with even a little potential can easily cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
It would be difficult for ordinary families to afford.
When most people contract their first pet, they often have no choice but to choose a cheap and weak pet.
Unfortunately, the predecessor had no advantage in either of these aspects.
My parents died in an accident three years ago.
Although a considerable inheritance was left behind, after deducting expenses in recent years and future living expenses, the amount that can be used is not very high.
You can only buy the cheapest pets.
The soul strength was pitifully low, with a test result of only 0.8.
It is even lower than the average score of 0.9 for college entrance examination candidates.
It can be said that the predecessor had almost no beast tamer qualifications.
But he was unwilling to give up and insisted on contracting a pet beast.
Finally, having no other choice, they had to settle for contracting a little snowball.
Lin Ze casually summoned his pet beast.
A flash of light appeared in the void before them.
A pure white snowball the size of a basketball suddenly appeared out of thin air.
It hovers about a meter above the ground.
She stared intently at Lin Ze with her clear, innocent lake-blue eyes.
Petite and delicate figure.
Her innocent and naive eyes.
They are extremely cute in appearance, but highly dangerous to humans, especially women.
However, for pets, a cute appearance is only icing on the cake; what really matters is their combat power and growth potential.
According to the Beast Tamer Association's classification standards for pet potential, Little Snowball belongs to the lowest level, F-grade pet.
There is no evolutionary form; the initial form is the highest level.
Even if fully cultivated, the highest level can only be Tier 1, Stage 2.
The only awakened skill is 'Cold Air Breath'.
As the name suggests, its effect is to exhale a cloud of cold air.
Its power is roughly equivalent to the cold air that hits you when you open a refrigerator.
Honestly, it's an insult to the word "skill".
Whether in terms of combat power or growth potential, Little Snowball is undoubtedly at the bottom of the pet beast hierarchy, so weak it's outrageous.
Therefore, it is also known as an ornamental pet.
"With only half a month left until the college entrance examination, it's wishful thinking to think you can get into the Beast Tamer Academy with such a pet beast."
Lin Ze rubbed his temples in frustration.
It's bad enough that he was transported to another world, but to make matters worse, he was given such a hellish start.
Isn't this deliberately torturing people?
Am I just going to live an ordinary, mediocre life like this from now on?
He was unwilling to accept it!
Just then, a mechanical, monotonous voice suddenly rang out from the depths of my mind.
[System fully charged, activation in progress]
[System activation in progress...]
[Activation successful, achievement system officially launched]
Lin Ze was stunned, then suddenly realized what was happening.
"This is... a cheat code!?"
He was overjoyed.
So the system hasn't appeared since I transmigrated here because it's been charging up?
Anyway, at least we have a cheat code!
Taking a deep breath, Lin Zeqiang suppressed his elation and was about to ask a question when a semi-transparent light screen suddenly popped up in front of him.
