I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

"But… How can I do that? And how will that help me exactly?" I was surprised to hear that from him. After all, I killed lots of humans before, but never got to store their souls.

Even when I killed traitors, they didn't end up as a separate soul in my soul list. I never thought about this before. After all humans were that kind of race that wasn't good at any battlefield.

Yet per his words here, it seemed I was wrong, partially.

[He says that having human souls are essential for your road map for cultivation. You are killing a ton of humans now, so it's a waste to not use this chance to do this. You have to upgrade your soul class two stages in a row. The next stage of your class is called soul merging. It's aiming to merge souls to make a stronger one. The next stage will be the soul evolution, which will enable you to upgrade any soul you have stored before]

"Hmm… Don't tell me I'm going to create a human god soul here!" I thought fast about what he said, and found this as the only logical explanation I had.

[He says it's up to your ability to do that. And you have little time left to do anything. Once the fourth layer of that weapon is launched, you are done for]

"As I expected," I muttered before opening my soul class. In fact I visited this interface many times before, yet never cared about upgrading my soul class.

I was already satisfied with the way things were going on for a long time. But it seemed it wasn't that good and I neglected such a big issue.

"Upgrade the class," I selected the upgrade option and the next moment, a message popped up in front of my eyes.

[Your current soul class is at level ten]

[You need to pay one thousand soul point for each level]

[The next upgrade is at level fifty]

[Do you want to pay the price for the missing forty levels?]

"Pay," forty thousand soul points might have been a great number for me before. But now it was a drop in the ocean.

[Forty thousand soul points are deducted]

[Congratulations! Your class has been advanced]

[Soul master class: Rank: Hidden. Grade: Heaven. Level: 50]

[Third stage is opened for you to use: The grade of soul merge II]

[Each time you kill a living being, you'll be able to absorb his soul. The absorbed soul won't reincarnate or be revived by any means]

[Storing one hundred souls will allow you to raise all your stats by one point]

[Storing one thousand souls will let you upgrade the level by one]

[Merge phase II: You can decide to sacrifice ten thousand souls and merge them together. The merge will yield a soul monster that's higher than the souls you used for the merge. The merge will consume one thousand souls to create one higher soul]

[The newly higher souls will be loyal and follow your orders. They can be stored inside your soul class list in a separate menu according to their grade. You can use them to summon loyal monsters to you. They will possess zero stats and will need you to spend stat points to increase their stats. The rise of the stats will follow the same rules of the warrior section]

[There is no limit to the number of the monsters you can merge]

[Upgrading the class level to reach level one hundred and fifty will open the next stage of the class for you]

So… The upgrade yielded a second phase of the merge ability. It wasn't like that merge from before as it made sure the merged souls would yield better monsters.

And the price I'd pay to do that would be eleven thousand souls. Not that cheap after all comparing this to the original five thousand souls of the merge ability phase I.

"Upgrade the class to the next level," I didn't hesitate to keep pushing my class forward per that god's advice.

[Your current soul class is at level fifty]

[You need to pay one thousand soul point for each level]

[The next upgrade is at level one hundred and fifty]

[Do you want to pay the price for the missing one hundred levels?]

"Pay!"

[Forty thousand soul points are deducted]

[Congratulations! Your class has been advanced]

[Soul master class: Rank: Hidden. Grade: Heaven. Level: 150]

[Fourth stage is opened for you to use: The grade of soul evolution]

[Each time you kill a living being, you'll be able to absorb his soul. The absorbed soul won't reincarnate or be revived by any means]

[Storing one hundred souls will allow you to raise all your stats by one point]

[Storing one thousand souls will let you upgrade the level by one]

[Using soul evolution will help you evolve any stored upgraded souls to merge together and evolve. The evolution process will bypass at least three ranks and also will add more features to the final soul. Each time you'll need at least one hundred high grade souls developed by your merge phase II ability. Each time you'll consume one hundred thousand soul points to make the process succeed]

[Dealing with the evolved soul is like dealing with your merged and stored souls in your soul class list]

[Upgrading the class level to reach level three hundred will open the next stage of the class for you]

"Damn! That means… I have to spend a lot of souls this time to get just one evolved soul?" I roughly calculated things here. Paying eleven thousand for a single merged higher grade soul, and I needed a hundred of these…

That meant I'd pay one million and two hundred thousand soul points to just get one evolved soul! How could this be a good thing?

"Are you sure about this?" I looked up to the sky, "this is like wasting my souls to get just one damn soul!"

[That god tells you it's crucial, and you have to get at least one soul for each cultivation stage you will break through. He says that according to his estimation, you'll need to open three stages at least to be able to turn table here]

"F*ck!" I looked at the current souls stored, "that means almost paying most of my stored souls! That's insane!"
