Beastmaster: I don’t want to be a breeder!

Dark Crows are curse-type pets, so they don't need much combat experience. They just need to master their curses; no need to worry about anything else.

Who ever heard of a curse master rolling up their sleeves and getting into a fistfight?

As for the Mech Apprentice, its equipment isn't even stacked up yet. What's the point of fighting? Once it's stacked, it'll be like a tortoise; nobody can damage it. Then there's no need to fight. And when the Mech Apprentice attacks others, it has an attack sight.

The Mech Apprentice's path is that of a stat monster.

Just auto-attack.

The Student Union is pretty good; the benefits and welfare inside are the best among the school's organizations. Many people are desperate to get in, but I heard the atmosphere inside isn't great. You need a certain background, and it's very unfriendly to commoner Beast Tamers.

The senior sister leaned in and whispered, "The advisor of the Prodigy Society used to be the principal."

Li Cunxu was shocked to hear this. The principal is no simple character; his actions must be analyzed frame by frame.

"Used to be? Why isn't he anymore?"

"His bias was too strong. At its peak, the Prodigy Society overshadowed the Student Union and the Battle Club."

The senior sister continued, "Joining the Prodigy Society gets you a thousand credits."

Li Cunxu's eyes lit up. Sheesh! Why say so much? If you'd mentioned this earlier, I would have agreed already.

I just happen to be short on credits right now.

"I agree to join the Prodigy Society."

Once she got what she wanted, the senior sister didn't cherish him anymore and even started to dislike him.

"You're too cliché, actually selling yourself for a few bucks. Where's the arrogance of a prodigious genius?"

The senior sister took out a membership application form and quickly filled in Li Cunxu's information.

"Alright, just put your fingerprint here to join."

Li Cunxu did as he was told.

"No initiation ceremony?"

Joining the Battle Club requires a Beast Taming battle. Ten veteran members watch the battle, and you need to get the approval of at least five of them.

"Nope, we don't do that superficial stuff." The senior sister said, "Don't think it's easy to join just because the Prodigy Society's threshold is low. The Prodigy Society's threshold is super high. Right now, including you, there are only fifty-eight members."

Joining gets you a thousand credits. In this situation, the Prodigy Society has only recruited fifty-eight people, so the threshold must indeed be high.

Li Cunxu didn't know that the Prodigy Society had so few people because the Student Union was suppressing it.

In fact, many people can cross that threshold and join the Prodigy Society, but they are all snatched away by the Student Union.

The Student Union is specifically targeting the Prodigy Society. As soon as a new member joins, they immediately poach them. As a result, some people who want to join the Student Union deliberately show off in front of the Prodigy Society, hoping to get an invitation from the Prodigy Society and then jump to the Student Union.

Li Cunxu said, "By the way, I haven't asked what your name is, senior sister?"

The senior sister pushed up her glasses. "I'm Mu Qingyan. Just call me Senior Sister Mu. Also, I'm the vice president of the Prodigy Society."

"Senior Sister Mu, have I seen you somewhere before? You seem familiar."

Li Cunxu sized up Mu Qingyan.

The familiarity didn't come from his previous life but from recently.

Mu Qingyan smiled charmingly.

"Junior, that's a very old-fashioned way to start a conversation. Next, are you going to ask me for my 'Pet Trust' account?"

"I'm not."

"Junior, are you sure? If you don't add me, I can't give you the thousand credits for joining, and I can't pull you into the Prodigy Society's group chat."

Pet Trust is linked to the school account, and you can also receive credits on Pet Trust.

After adding her on Pet Trust, Mu Qingyan immediately sent him the address of the club's location and the thousand credits.

"Classroom 102 in Building C is the Prodigy Society's club location. You can go there and hang out if you have time."

"Okay."

Li Cunxu then picked out a suitable secret realm from a pile of guides.

He finally chose the Bronze-grade White Jade Secret Realm, which had the jade needed for the Jade Gourd and Jade Dew.

The White Jade Secret Realm is rich in jade. Even the pets inside are related to jade.

The White Jade Secret Realm's difficulty rating is 9.7, only 0.1 lower than the 9.8 Mechanical Demolition Secret Realm.

The information on the White Jade Secret Realm recorded how to clear the secret realm.

You just need to find the mutated White Jade Golem in the secret realm and kill it to obtain the secret realm core from its belly.

"White Jade Golem, this kind of pet likes silence like a stone. During battle, as long as you don't hit its companions nearby, they won't wake up to help fight. Therefore, the White Jade Golem often fights alone. Logically speaking, this secret realm is easy to clear, right? How come nobody has cleared it yet? Could it be a newly discovered secret realm that not many people know about yet?"

Li Cunxu saw that the White Jade Secret Realm had existed for ten years.

"That doesn't make sense, right? Just a mutated White Jade Golem. How has it dragged on for ten years?"

Moreover, this secret realm guide can also recruit people to form a team, with a maximum of ten people per team.

Continuing to look down, the information costs credits.

Li Cunxu now has credits, so he looked.

[The mutated White Jade Golem has a magic resistance skin, immune to spirit energy attacks below silver rank, and reduced spirit energy attack damage at silver rank and above.

The mutated White Jade Golem has extreme strength, comparable to a silver-peak pet that specializes in strength.

It has two recovery skills: Jade Devouring Healing and Jade Devouring Energy Recovery. After being injured, it can restore its injuries and recover its spirit energy by swallowing a few mouthfuls of jade.]

"This mutated White Jade Golem has such high aptitude. Without anyone training or nurturing it, it has the battle power of a silver-peak pet at the bronze level, and it can both attack and heal. It has stumped a bunch of secret realm raiders from Divine University."

Li Cunxu exchanged for the opportunity to enter the White Jade Secret Realm.

The White Jade Secret Realm is also a rich secret realm.

In the valley here, the ground is full of embedded white jade, jadeite, black jade…

Jade seems to be the most common and worthless thing in this secret realm.

"This secret realm is so valuable. Anyone who comes in and sees it will be tempted."

There are also large jade stones in the valley. These are all White Jade Golems. They curl up into a ball and sleep. As long as you don't attack them, it's okay to sit on their butts.

"The information says that the mutated White Jade Golem is ten times larger than the ordinary White Jade Golem. There isn't one here."

"Not here either."

Li Cunxu walked to the next valley.

"It's here."

In a scenic valley, a huge mutated White Jade Golem sat on the riverbed. There wasn't a single White Jade Golem around, nor were there any remnants of White Jade Golems.

"There are no corpses or remains of ordinary White Jade Golems, and there are no traces of battle, indicating that there are no ordinary White Jade Golems in this valley, and it wasn't killed by the school's raiders."

"If it wasn't the school's raiders that caused this valley to have no White Jade Golems, then there's only one possibility: the mutated White Jade Golem drove them away."

"It drove away its companions and took this place as its territory. This is the first time I've seen a White Jade Golem with a sense of territory."

Little White Spider interjected, "Is it possible that the White Jade Golems disliked the mutated White Jade Golem and moved away?"

"That shouldn't be possible. The larger the White Jade Golem's body, the more it is loved by its companions."

"Little Soft, Fireball, wake it up."

The majestic fireball fell, but the mutated White Jade Golem didn't even wake up.

"The mutated White Jade Golem is an earth-type pet, and wood counters earth. Little Soft, use Azure Lotus Blade to chop it."
