In this mystical continent, Beast Mastery is an innate talent bestowed upon every individual. At birth, everyone is destined to awaken their Beast Mastery talent on the day they come of age. Beast Mastery is not only a symbol of strength but also the guiding force of one's fate. Those without this talent are deemed worthless, destined to dwell at the bottom of society, while those blessed with powerful Beast Mastery are hailed as the chosen, rising to greatness and standing above all.

However, Lin Hao was one of those worthless beings with no Beast Mastery talent whatsoever.

Three years ago, on his coming-of-age ceremony, Lin Hao had stood anxiously among the crowd, his gaze fixed on the massive beam of light overhead. This beam, a special creature provided by the Alliance in various cities, was capable of testing one's Beast Mastery talent. Initially, its purpose was unknown, but researchers had discovered that it helped ordinary people awaken their talents. As the other youths awakened their Beast Mastery talents one by one, Lin Hao's beam remained dim and ultimately yielded nothing. Despite this, he endured his family's expectations in silence until he was labeled a hopeless waste.

"Without Beast Mastery talent, you're doomed to be worthless."

These words echoed countless times in Lin Hao's mind. No matter how hard he tried or how desperately he struggled, he could not break the chains binding his soul, preventing him from awakening his Beast Mastery. Each failure, each time he was dismissed as useless, tore at his heart.

But destiny has a way of opening a door in the darkest of hours.

That night, Lin Hao's life came to an end. While defending his family, he ventured alone into the forbidden zone of the Beast Domain, where he was surrounded by fierce beasts. Blood stained the ground as exhaustion overwhelmed him, and he ultimately fell, succumbing to death. In his final moments of consciousness, he seemed to hear a voice—a faint but irresistibly powerful call.

"Host reborn. Beast Mastery System activated."

When Lin Hao opened his eyes again, the scene before him was completely different from his last memory. He found himself three years in the past, on the eve of his coming-of-age ceremony. What had once been a painful memory now felt like a distant dream. His heart surged with a newfound resolve, as if fate had granted him another chance.

Just then, a cold, mechanical voice echoed in his mind: "Host reborn. Beast Mastery System activated. Binding complete. Commencing Beast Mastery talent quest."

"System?" Lin Hao murmured, stunned. He had never heard this voice before, yet it felt strangely familiar, as though it came from deep within. He focused inward, sensing his own soul, and indeed, a new power was quietly awakening within him.

"Beast Mastery System? What does that mean?"

As he pondered this, the system's voice sounded again: "Host has been reborn. System activated. Initiating Beast Mastery awakening. First task: awaken Beast Mastery talent."

A surge of unfamiliar energy coursed through his body, as though a tremendous force was pulling at his soul. His heartbeat grew thunderous, and he felt a fiery excitement building up inside, filling him with unparalleled strength.

Something clicked in Lin Hao's mind. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and focused on the interface that appeared before him:

Beast Mastery System

Host: Lin Hao

Current State: Reborn

Task: Awaken Beast Mastery Talent

Reward: Silver Moon Wolf God

Lin Hao's heart pounded as he read. None of this was an illusion—his rebirth was no accident; it was part of the system's plan. Examining the interface, he felt a warm energy flowing through him, as if every cell, every vein was breathing new life.

"What is going on?" Lin Hao whispered, struggling to understand. Yet his excitement made it impossible to pause and question. Being reborn to three years ago meant a second chance, and if he could awaken his Beast Mastery talent this time, everything could change.

The system's voice echoed once more: "Host's first task: awaken Beast Mastery talent."

"Awaken Beast Mastery talent?" Lin Hao's heart raced. What would it mean if he could awaken his talent this time?

The mere thought ignited a spark within him; finally, he wouldn't have to be seen as a worthless waste. He would rise to the top of the world and trample upon those who had mocked him.

As he drifted off in thought, a voice called out, "Hey, isn't this Lin Hao?" A sullen-faced youth emerged from the crowd. "This guy tormented me constantly in my past life. He's even responsible for my family's downfall," Lin Hao thought, an icy glint flashing in his eyes, though he simply smiled in response, refraining from engaging with the other's taunts. This boy, Wang Sheng, a mere branch family member from another household, had a minor talent and flaunted it shamelessly, always sneering at Lin Hao. Lin Hao remembered that during his family's misfortunes in his previous life, Wang Sheng not only stood by idly but even fanned the flames. With these thoughts, Lin Hao's gaze grew even colder.

"Hmph, still acting like a useless weakling. No talent, but you're trying to look cool? Just wait till you get nothing tomorrow! Let's see if you still look so smug," Wang Sheng sneered, his words laced with venom.

Lin Hao clenched his fists and responded with a calm yet mocking tone, "Wang Sheng, I know you've always looked down on me, but you might not be as sure about tomorrow as you think. Save your energy; you're jumping to conclusions too soon."

Wang Sheng looked surprised, clearly not expecting Lin Hao to talk back, then his face darkened. "Fine! So this waste has a bit of backbone now. Tomorrow, just don't cry when you're proven wrong!"

Ignoring him, Lin Hao walked away, his heart surging with excitement. He knew that the pain and humiliation of his past life would soon be left behind. With the power of this system, he now had the chance to turn the tables.
