    This is one of those novels you end up liking far more than you think you should. Like its not full of wild twists or turns, everything is predictable and the MC is never really put in a corner that might foster character growth... but its fun. Its pokemon bro.

    Message from the translator: For all worrying that I might dropped this, the answer is: No, I won't. It's just our final exam month. Just yesterday, we've done a musical play, and now, I'm doing a syllabus + module combo for a senior high course. Sorry for the late announcement. I've been stressing and forgot to mention it to you guys. I'll be back updating this story at the start of February at the latest. Thanks for the patience!

      More like Unscientific Beast Taming of those two. The mc transmigrates to a world with a pre-established beast-taming power system and everyone is a beast tamer there.

        Thanks, but i should have asked different. Are there just 1v1 mock battles like in unsientific beast taming or actual battles and wars.

        Ah I see. It is mostly a story about raising beasts and competitions, tournaments and such as far as I've read (upto ch.840). With a very little bit of going out into non-human zones. There should be more of that in further chapters as it is foreshadowed but I don't expect there to be any big war type scenarios occuring unless the author pulls off very unexpected plot twists. Humanity has already colonized 3 planets (so there are 4 total) and they have established civilization on all of them and no other "competing races" or anything like that, just humans and beasts; so war seems unlikely unless aliens suddenly get introduced out of the blue. P.s.: This is not a spoiler, it is written very very early on that human civilization exists on multiple planets.

        Battle like Pokemon type, there is some background plot depend on author explore it (Like secret realm stuff and how there a gate that will open and let wild beast enter). Idk if author gonna go that route tho (1k chap in and it still pokemon battle type, 1v1 2v2 with other trainer).

      I feel like Asians can‘t write a story without a reincarnated, migrated and genius mc with a cheat system.

        Asians……? How many “asians” story u know and read?? This is a typical chinese storyline for basic op novels dude. To come up with this conclusion when u been searching and clicking on the same storyline is lame. The tags are there for a reason if u dont like op stuffs go read abt s*x and high school life americans like to preach abt lmao grow up

    Upto current ch 427. In short loving it. Sometimes skills and names get mixed/changed but that might be more translation. The plot and progression are pretty nicely paced, plot so far is just getting stronger/progress thru school so pretty bare and there’s lots of competitions so little repetitive but seeing as it starts end of mid school and start of high school, I guess it’s expected. Plus it is natural competition progression, like local to regional to national. So plot wise, not much going on beyond that but there are hints at future stuff. Only thing I would say is MC/pets getting very strong already to known power lvls. As in I could see max pet by chap 800 and still being in school arc. So unless new things /story introduced I could feel this getting very repetitive BUT this is all speculation. 100% recommend reading this.

    I only read first chapter but god whoever wrote this sure as hell didnt finish high school, the novel is set 30 million years into future but nothing changed... yeah f*ck*ng right (Expect that china owns everything) Evolution in 30 million years we wont look like this for sure, we have only existed for 200,000 years max and all humans for about 8 milion in 30 million even if there arent any new human species we would have changed a lot. In 30 million years tehc hasnt changed a lot while it should be that by the next century it would be much better than now while we might not feel it tehcnology is getting better and better without stop and its getting faster at getting better. By the end of century with ai and robots it would be no problem to get rid of almost every job possible but here beast do every job instead of humans? there are still manual jobs... 30 million years passed but only recently have they figured out why some people become beastmakers...

      d*mb*ss think FANTASY novels equates to irl…. Sounds like YOU didn’t finish school bruh sometimes u can opt out to speak over novels like these with that “iTs UnReaLisTic” headassery. Typical whitie issue with xenophobia like u can make a better story loser

        Even fantasy novels are based from reality, basic of writing books is to at least make it believable, sure i might not be able to make better novel but at least i wont make a wrong one, and just cause i cant make it doesnt mean i cant tell the bad from the good. If you want to make novel for children sure start writing whatever you want but this novel is aimed at adults, if you suddenly write is that humans have 5 heads and nobody ever questions it in the novel and acts as if its normal and its the same as in irl, thats a problem, evolution is basic things even children are taught, and the fact that society has stagnated that much is impossible even if someone tried to keep society as it is, its impossible, and the fact that it took them 30 million years to find out some basic sh*t is even worse, its most likely author wanted to be racist but to not make anyone angry he shifted the novel far into future and thats it didnt change a thing, 30 million years is insanly huge period of time.

    How are the side characters? Are they developed at all or 1 dimensional?

      Continuation of the post below: What I really appreciate about the characters and pets in this story is that the author has put a lot of thought into creating their unique personalities so even reading about the mc's classmates who come and go in the story doesn't feel monotonous. The character growth of the pets is especially well thought out. Each of Qiao Sang's pets (she only has 4 as of Ch.840) has a unique base personality and they all grow up according to these personalities and all behave very differently from each other while staying loyal to their original character model. Even QS herself has good character growth. All in all, as far as characters go, I think the author has done a good job with this book.

        X2 I read it up to the limit +900 I don't remember much since I read other novels but I loved this novel, the creator really tried hard, it's a story of moderate growth but with a lot of development and training, the friendships, his mother and how the tournaments etc. is a goddess, obviously the author was inspired a little by pokemon with some things but others are his inspiration maybe from other beast novels, in short it's nice to see and if you're tired of something shady or conspiracy, disturbing etc. this novel is to relax.

        If you search up "beast taming starting from zero mtl" some sites should show up. I read on a website with white/orange colour scheme and icon. Don't think I can write names, the comment will probably get struck down. Anyway if you do read that, I hope you have some experience reading mtl works. It's actually really good by mtl standards but there definitely are a few things you can misunderstand like gender misappropriation etc or reversing intent of some sentences writing "I did read" instead of "I did not read" (this happens very rarely on that site), BUT the main issue is the beast names. They use random pokemon names so many times to refer to beasts 😂. Lubao has probably been called 10+ different water or ice pokemon names over the course of those ~400 extra chapters I read. But yeah anyways, as far as mtl goes it's actually really good. Beware of occasional missing chapters (there are other MUCH WORSE mtl sites which have those missing chapters though).

        OH, I think I know which site ur talking about! I tried to read on that one but it REALLY threw me off when they called the fire fang dog growlith and then calling Yaboa’s evolution flareon was wild. I couldn’t read it after that lol.

        Hahaha yes it was most likely that site. And Lubao gets called Eevee, Vaporeon and Glaceon among many others 😂😂😂

      The tertiary side chars can be 1D; like the random opponents that will be prominent competitors in a competition, but not be relevant to the story beyond that. As for people close to MC, I'd divide them into two categories - the long term side characters (which have a prominent role in the story beyond a single major arc) and single-arc side characters (they are present for a major arc, but after that they'll only appear occassionally. There's two and a half long term side characters in all the chapters that I've read and they have their own motivations and aspirations and act accordingly. The single-arc side characters are also not 1D but they don't get a lot of character growth so I'd say they're pretty much 2D. I've read upto around Ch.840 on some mtl website. The novel just broke 1k chapters but sadly there's a lot of missing chapters past ~840 on the mtl sites I found so I have paused reading for now.
