In fact, it has been proven that not only idiocy and laughter are contagious, but effort also has a chance of being contagious.
After eating the boxed meal and taking a brief rest, Chen Kai and his team watched the still training iron-eating beasts, feeling somewhat restless.
Even the iron-eating beasts, known for their lazy habits, were working so hard and diligently, not wasting a single moment. What right did they have to rest?
"Now I finally understand why the pass rate for the Beast Master profession exam in the city is so high..."
"Are all the Beast Masters in your city this hardworking? And how did you manage to train your pet beast to be so disciplined..." Chen Kai's face twitched as he said.
Could the education level in the city really be that much higher than in the suburbs?
Shi Yu's situation was something he had never seen in the Beast Masters around him.
"It's not that exaggerated..." Shi Yu said.
Had he unknowingly raised these three people's expectations of the city's Beast Masters?
It was a misunderstanding, purely a misunderstanding.
He carried supplements purely out of necessity.
He didn't want to be so hardworking, but the cost of using the Skill Codex was just that high. What could he do?
As for Eleven, it was purely an accident!
It had the effort attribute from the start, and it had nothing to do with him...
Eleven was one that others had left behind, and Shi Yu just got lucky.
Back then, the only ones who saw Eleven's potential were probably Lin Xiuzhu and himself.
Lin Xiuzhu was experienced in raising pet beasts, while he was simply confident because of the Skill Codex, so he felt secure no matter what kind of pet beast he chose.
By chance, an unscientific combination reaction occurred between Shi Yu and Eleven.
In short, you don't need to learn from them; they are an exception. Don't believe what you see!
You'll burn out.
Although he said that, Shi Yu couldn't really explain it. He couldn't persuade others not to work hard.
"Why not? It's not that exaggerated."
"Actually, it's better to be a bit exaggerated. That way, there's a future. Forget it, from now on, I'll require my Ice Armor Beast to train at this intensity."
"I'll also go to the pharmacy tomorrow to buy a box of Ming Shen capsules and study all night."
"I don't believe it. We all have two arms and two legs... I can do it too." Chen Kai gritted his teeth.
He had shamelessly followed Shi Yu to do the mission, just to see why Shi Yu was so strong and find the reason.
Now that he had found it, he naturally wanted to try it out.
Zhuang Yue and Yu Jingjing exchanged glances. Although they didn't say anything, they also felt that they had been a bit lax.
There was still a lot of time to work hard... Tomorrow, for sure.
Shi Yu: "..."
Really that hard?
Then I wish you success.
After all, being hardworking and diligent isn't a bad thing...
Shi Yu was pleased that his good qualities could influence others.
"Shi Yu, are you preparing to take the Professional Beast Master exam? By the way, you're in the breeding major... or are you planning to take the Professional Breeder exam?" Chen Kai asked.
"About that..."
A Professional Beast Master is the traditional path for Beast Masters, focusing on combat skills.
A Professional Breeder, on the other hand, focuses on breeding and raising pet beasts, with most of their work being in breeding bases.
At a higher level, they can work independently, helping other Beast Masters care for their pet beasts, and even develop related professions like skill instructors and evolution planners.
Logically, since Shi Yu was in the breeding major and had the Skill Codex, he would definitely make a lot of money if he took the Professional Breeder exam...
However, his second talent was quite peculiar, and Shi Yu was really afraid of being exposed and dissected.
Although this country is a rule-of-law society, there is a clear class distinction between high-level Beast Masters and ordinary people. The lack of a relatively fair path like the college entrance exam shows that this world is heavily monopolized.
There are also frequent underhanded actions among Beast Masters in public battles, and the student era is the only time that is somewhat innocent.
Moreover, some highly intelligent extraordinary beings are eyeing human territories...
Shi Yu thought about it. If the teaching method of the Skill Codex cannot be changed, he would absolutely not use this talent to teach other people's pet beasts skills until he had strong self-protection capabilities.
Even for slightly intelligent wild creatures, he wouldn't teach them.
Unless it was a pet beast like the Green Silk Worm, which has almost no intelligence. After teaching it, the Green Silk Worm wouldn't even know what happened, thus eliminating any safety risks.
In short, only pet beasts that have signed a soul contract with him could he teach with peace of mind.
Therefore, Shi Yu felt that it was more reliable to first take the Professional Beast Master exam to increase his combat capabilities.
Some excellent Beast Masters can teach their pet beasts skills outside their species, like the iron-eating beasts at the Bamboo Rock Martial Hall, which can master lightning and fire skills.
Even some talented rare wild pet beasts can learn skills outside their species.
For example, the wolf kings of the Snow Wolf clan generally have intimidation skills.
This kind of private skill teaching secret, though outrageous, is relatively common in the higher levels of Beast Masters and is not impossible.
However, a Beast Master talent that can teach pet beasts skills with just a touch, and especially one with dual talents from the start, has never appeared before...
In other words, it's an invasive species, not safe...
In this relatively dangerous world, strength is the foundation of everything... increasing one's strength is always right.
"Although I'm in the breeding major, I want to prepare for the Professional Beast Master exam first." Shi Yu said.
His answer immediately piqued Chen Kai and the others' interest.
Chen Kai said, "Let me calculate. The next... the one after next, right? Maybe, we can even do it together."
The Professional Beast Master exam is held on January 1st every year.
It is already July, so there is less than half a year until the next exam.
Shi Yu's iron-eating beast is currently at Awakening Level 5, and Chen Kai's Ice Armor Beast is at Awakening Level 6. These levels do not meet the standards for the professional exam.
The first round of the Professional Beast Master exam requires the pet beast to have Extraordinary-level combat power.
This is the level after Awakening Level 10.
It would be a stretch for their pet beasts to reach Level 10 in half a year, let alone Extraordinary level. Therefore, Chen Kai subconsciously assumed that Shi Yu, like him, planned to take the exam after next.
However.
"If I don't pass the next exam, the one after next can be together." Shi Yu said seriously.
His small savings would not last for a year and a half without additional income...
So, getting a professional certificate as soon as possible would also help alleviate Shi Yu's financial pressure.
He planned to take the next professional exam in half a year.
Chen Kai: ???
"But your iron-eating beast is only at Level 5."
"Reaching Extraordinary level in half a year seems a bit too much..."
The higher the level, the harder it is to advance.
The bottleneck from Awakening to Extraordinary level has held back many creatures.
The transformation from ordinary to Extraordinary is entirely dependent on whether one can cross the Extraordinary threshold.
"It's fine. Reaching Extraordinary level might be a bit difficult, but Awakening Level 10 should be no problem..."
As long as Eleven's racial skills are continuously strengthened, its growth level will also transform.
Shi Yu felt that reaching Level 10 in half a year should not be a problem, and even reaching Extraordinary level was highly possible.
Even if it doesn't reach Extraordinary level, Awakening level is not impossible for the professional exam. Capable people always have privileges.
"You mean that special exam???"
Chen Kai realized something.
"The one where you challenge a higher level???" The other two girls had also heard of it.
For some genius Beast Masters and pet beasts with higher racial levels, there is a special standard in the professional exam.
If the growth level has not reached Extraordinary level, but the pet beast can defeat a true Extraordinary-level creature in the Awakening stage, the pet beast and its Beast Master can participate in the next stage of the professional exam.
"Yes, that's the one... If we can't reach Extraordinary level, we can take this route." Shi Yu smiled.
A pet beast with high-level skills and high proficiency, challenging a higher level, isn't that easy?
Chen Kai also understood now. For an iron-eating beast that can master a proficient racial skill at Level 5... challenging a higher level is indeed not difficult!
He had already been surpassed!
Thinking about it, he regretted asking so much. Comparing pet beasts to pet beasts, it's enough to drive a Beast Master crazy...
After returning, the training intensity for the Ice Armor Beast must be doubled!!!
In the eyes of these three people, Shi Yu was still very mysterious and powerful. They just didn't know if Shi Yu could really pass the professional exam in the next session...
