Can't Ordinary People Become Beastmasters?

Seasoned Pokemon fan Xiang Yang transmigrates to a world where humans live alongside magical beasts.

Here, the college entrance exams test more than just the arts and sciences. They also cover all kinds of strange and wonderful knowledge about magical beasts.

The world's biggest sporting event is no longer the Olympics, held once every four years. It has become the World League, a tournament of magical beast battles.

Beast Tamers have become the mainstream of society.

Living alongside magical beasts has become an indispensable part of everyday life.

Form contracts with magical beasts, raise them...

Stand on the world stage alongside your magical beast partners.

“If even a Caterpie can evolve into Rayquaza,”

“then why can't my cabbage worm evolve into a Four Symbols Azure Dragon?”

From “Bug Catcher Boy” to world champion.

A true Beast Tamer will always dare to face a bleak life head-on.

“Even if my spiritual power is so weak that I can only form a contract with the lowest-ranked magical beast, I'll work hard and take my partner onto the world stage. Then I'll prove to everyone that there are no weak magical beasts in this world, only Beast Tamers who use ‘weakness’ to hide their own incompetence.”

Excerpt from the first public interview with Xiang Yang, the world's greatest tactical mastermind.

[Reading Guide]:

1. An original urban fantasy light novel about Beast Tamers. Some of the settings are inspired by Pokemon, Beast Tamer King, and Digimon.

2. An unconventional, hot-blooded progression story about Beast Tamers! The ordinary protagonist is the kind who spends his life instead of money. He has no golden finger or System, and all the flaws of an ordinary person. He also doesn't follow the usual route of raising and leveling up a team of pets. This story focuses on the bonds between people and between humans and beasts. The pace is very slow before Chapter 135, and there are few competitions! Still, all the competitive events together make up roughly two-thirds of the story, so you could call it an unconventional hot-blooded progression novel.

3. Rayquaza is deliberately used as a joke and metaphor in the blurb, not a typo. There are two translations, and this one uses the official name from the games.

4. I couldn't find the kind of story I wanted to read, so I decided to cook one up myself. This is essentially a self-indulgent work written to satisfy my own fantasies. If it's not to your taste, please just close the page. There's no need to force yourself to read it.

End of advance blurb

“I Held Up the Entire Organization That Saved the World by Myself”

Su Yu transmigrated.

The good news: he was still on Earth.

The bad news: it was a parallel world.

Here, spiritual qi has revived, everyone awakens, and each person possesses their own special ability.

Unfortunately, monstrous beasts run rampant and other worlds invade, leaving humanity facing one crisis after another.

Fortunately, at the age of eighteen, Su Yu's golden finger, delayed by eighteen years, finally came online during his awakening ceremony.

A second-dimension card System. By drawing a card each day, he can randomly obtain a character card from the world of anime and manga. After using it, he gets a temporary trial card granting all of that character's abilities, with the duration determined by the card's star rating.

And so...

At the college entrance exam.

A boy wielding a Flying Thunder God kunai darts around the exam grounds like a ghost, snatching one “kill” after another from other candidates.

“Hmm... I'm not late, am I?”

At the Jiuzhou League.

A boy with the Eyes of the Azure Sky smiles and waves at his opponent. “Come on, don't be shy~ Don't you want to know why you couldn't hit me? Then come over and experience the ‘Infinity’ between us up close~!”

“Don't be scared~ I'm just a support-type ability user. It's not like I can take you out in an instant, right?”

In a city ambushed by monstrous beasts.

A young man in a yellow pinstripe suit strolls lazily down the devastated streets, repeatedly saying, “How scary,” while kicking one high-tier beast after another to death. The light gathering behind the culprit who orchestrated the attack shines so brightly that it is hard to keep your eyes open.

“Speed is weight. Have you ever been kicked at the speed of light?”

On the verge of collapse, at the front-line battlefield.

The never-before-seen leader of the “Akatsuki” organization appears before the high-ranking Demon God besieging humanity, moving through the battlefield as if no one were there. Everything in his path, from powerful leaders of the Abyssal races to rulers of otherworldly realms known as “Lesser Demon Gods,” is crushed to dust by an overwhelming force.

“What a sorry sight... Why slowly hack away with weapons?”

“To deal with this cosmic trash, just use spiritual power to crush it all at once.”

Breathing techniques, Zanpakuto, Devil Fruits, bloodline limits...

When other worlds invade and despair spreads, a glimmer of light always shines into the eyes of every living being.

Su Yu: I'm an orphan whose parents are unknown. It's perfectly reasonable for me to have a few mysterious bloodlines, right?

Su Yu: I'm an ability user whose power is Spirit Eyes. It's perfectly reasonable for my eyes to have a tiny bit of extra special power, right?

Su Yu: Our school often takes us to train in secret realms, so it was only natural that I got lucky and found a few swords with special powers, right?

Su Yu: So, all things considered, there's nothing wrong with me single-handedly holding together the legendary “Akatsuki” organization, making the invaders believe Earth has plenty of hidden powerhouses!

A certain mastermind, thoroughly deceived by Su Yu: ...
