[Congratulations on obtaining B-grade talent ‘Fast Casting’!]
[Congratulations on obtaining S-grade universal skill book ‘Magic Flame Bullet’!]
…
Abundant!
Absolutely abundant!
Seeing the notifications on the information panel before him, even Wang Chen, who was normally calm and composed, couldn’t help but show a hint of joy in his eyes!
500,000 experience points could directly raise Wang Chen from level 30 to level 35!
And the A-grade material ‘Purgatory Serpent Gall’ was priceless in the small Dongyun City, whether kept or sold.
As for the Golden Two-Star ‘Purgatory Serpent Spear’...
[Equipment: Purgatory Serpent Spear.]
[Grade: Golden Two-Star.]
[Level Requirement: 30.]
[Attributes: Strength +200; Armor +200; Magic Resistance +200.]
[Equipment Effect: Increases attack speed and armor penetration by 30% when attacking.]
[Equipment Source: Purgatory Three-Headed Serpent (LV45)]
It could finally replace the Silver Five-Star battle axe in his hands.
For Wang Chen, known as the ‘Battle Genius’ and who had perfect scores in all weapon courses in high school, using the Purgatory Serpent Spear was a piece of cake.
The Beast Master profession had this advantage.
It could use any weapon.
Though there was no weapon specialization, for Wang Chen, this was no big deal.
“A new title...”
[Demon-Slaying Vanguard (Title): Increases physical and magical attack power by 5%.]
Not bad.
This title was already quite good.
Don’t underestimate the 5% attack power increase.
Every job changer could have countless titles.
When you had enough titles, the cumulative attributes from all the titles would greatly enhance yourself.
“Now for the main attractions…”
“The talent and skill rewards!”
Because Wang Chen directly broke the record, the skill books and talents awarded were extremely abundant!
First, the S-grade Beast Master skill book...
[Chain of Life (S): This skill is a passive skill. After learning it, 70% of the damage you take will be shared with your beast pet.]
Note: If you have two or more beast pets, the damage you take will be evenly shared among all your beast pets.
A great skill!
This directly improved Wang Chen’s self-preservation ability!
It was well known.
The Beast Master profession relied on beast pets for combat.
They themselves were actually very fragile.
Many people, when fighting Beast Masters, would choose to capture the thief before attacking the king, directly attacking the Beast Master.
As long as the Beast Master was defeated, the beast pets could be easily dealt with.
For this reason, many Beast Masters frantically honed their survival skills.
Now.
With this S-grade passive skill that shared damage with the beast pets, Wang Chen’s self-preservation was assured.
Next, the S-grade universal skill ‘Magic Flame Bullet’.
[Magic Flame Bullet (S): This skill is a universal magic skill. After casting, it launches a powerful Magic Flame Bullet, which explodes upon hitting the enemy, dealing significant fire damage.]
Note: Enemies hit will enter a burning state for 30 seconds, reducing healing effects by 50% and losing 1% of their maximum health per second.
Another great skill!
For Wang Chen as a Beast Master, such universal attack skills were naturally needed.
The beast pets were strong, but the owner couldn’t be too weak.
Otherwise, during battles, the opponent would bypass the beast pets to chase after you.
If you didn’t have any attack means, you would be like a fish on the chopping block, waiting to be slaughtered.
Lastly...
The B-grade talent ‘Fast Casting’.
[Fast Casting (B): Passive talent, reduces your skill casting time by 80%.]
Perfectly paired with the magic skill ‘Magic Flame Bullet’.
The key point was...
Universal skills could be cast without any weapons!
Since universal skills could be learned by any profession, they wouldn’t require specific weapons for casting.
“Alright, rewards received, time to leave…”
“Since the instance rewards already state I broke the record, it means my score should be first in South State!”
“If no one breaks my record later, this top scorer should be me!”
A smile appeared on Wang Chen’s face.
He finally proved his strength!
He harshly slapped those who looked down on him in the face!
Phew…
Exhaling, Wang Chen used the return scroll to go back to the real world.
…
At this moment.
Outside the instance, Dongyun Square.
“He’s here!”
“Chen is out!”
With a shout of surprise.
Everyone saw a tall, well-proportioned figure with a halo appear at the golden gate.
That familiar handsome face had a cold and indifferent look.
Even with such outstanding results, no trace of arrogance could be seen on his face.
He was the only one in Dongyun City who dared to enter the Xuanyuan Nation’s Demon Suppression Tower alone, and even chose the hell mode.
Compared to others’ team efforts, his solitary stance was more aloof.
The moment Wang Chen appeared, the entire Dongyun Square erupted with thunderous applause!
“Wow! My god Chen is finally out!”
“Chen! Congratulations on becoming the top scorer in South State!”
“Incredible! A civilian Beast Master actually succeeded in soloing the job-changing exam instance! And with such excellent results!”
“Honey! Look at me!”
“Miss, don’t go overboard!”
…
Cheers, joy, admiration, and affection…
All these intense emotions mixed together, like a gathering of brain-dead fans.
Just coming out of the secret realm, Wang Chen, whose vision had recovered, was also a bit dazed by the overwhelming cheers.
He never expected the audience to chase after him like this.
You know…
Before he entered the instance, most of the surrounding voices were mocking him.
Now the change was so fast?
In this regard, Wang Chen’s heart was not moved much.
These people were just being opportunistic. The so-called cheers, admiration, and respect were all based on his good results.
If his results were mediocre, or if he didn’t even pass, these people would speak to him with extreme sarcasm.
As the famous saying goes.
At the peak, hypocritical support, at dusk, faithful believers.
