Changing Life And Career? I Planted The World Tree At The Beginning

"Every powerful Planter is a master of command."

"Come, take a look at this video."

Zhou Bowen picked up the remote control and turned on the projection screen in the meeting room.

On the screen was a battle.

One side was a Planter, while the other side was a warrior.

"The Planter in the video is my personally trained disciple who got accepted into Cloud River University last year."

"This video is a scene of him practicing with his classmates in the academy."

"His opponent is a mutant profession, a berserker."

Saying that, Zhou Bowen clicked play.

Chen Yu turned his gaze to the video.

In the footage, the berserker wielded a double-bladed axe and charged towards the Planter with great momentum.

The Planter, on the other hand, remained calm and first summoned a tree, lifting himself up and standing on a high position.

Then he released two poisonous lilies on the tree.

Pollen fell, causing the berserker to enter a negative state of reduced attributes.

Undeterred, he swung his axe at the trunk of the tree, directly creating a large gap.

Based on this damage, two more attacks and the tree would break.

The Planter remained composed and walked to the edge of the branch, jumping down while holding onto it.

At that moment, the berserker swung his second axe.

However, in the next moment, the tree suddenly disappeared.

The powerful strike missed, and the berserker almost fell.

Just then, the Planter threw a whip vine, heavily lashing at the berserker's leg.

Already off balance, the berserker fell to the ground.

Immediately, more than ten tree spirits and two whip vines swarmed in, rendering the berserker unable to move.

As the referee declared the Planter's victory, the video came to an end.

"What do you think?" Zhou Bowen asked.

"Very impressive," Chen Yu nodded.

The Planter in the video was indeed strong.

Seizing opportunities, judging opponents, summoning plants, every step was executed with precision.

Although he won easily, if someone else had gone up, it would have been the berserker who won easily.

If at the start of the battle, he had released all the plant life at once, the berserker would have easily killed them all with a single swing of his axe.

"This is the art of command," Zhou Bowen said. "Have you figured out what that tree is?"

"It's... the Fairy Tree?!" Chen Yu recalled and said.

The Fairy Tree was the plant seed Jiang Tianming gave him.

However, Chen Yu's Fairy Tree had already evolved into a World Tree.

"Yes, the Fairy Tree," Zhou Bowen replied. "The original form of the nurturing-type plant. It doesn't have to be confined to producing subsidiary units in the Planting Space."

"When the time is right, it can also create combat opportunities."

"Of course, this requires confidence in your own command."

"Otherwise, if it gets destroyed, it will be a serious setback."

"Also, take a look here." Zhou Bowen rewound the video to the moment when the berserker struck the Fairy Tree for the second time.

At that moment, the Planter grabbed a branch of the Fairy Tree and jumped to the ground behind the berserker.

"This is the utilization of the Planting Space mechanism. Retrieving the plants at the right moment not only avoids damage but also destabilizes the opponent by making the attack target disappear."

"The control of plant life, the ability to summon and retract, is a mandatory course for combat-oriented Planters."

"Of course, the prerequisite for achieving this is having enough confidence to ensure the safety of your own self."

"The sudden attack of the Beatdown Vine establishes victory without the need for further explanation. Any professional fighter would not miss such an opportunity."

"Now, let's watch the next video."

...

In total, Zhou Bowen played 7 videos for Chen Yu, each showcasing a highly skilled Planter combat style.

Every explanation greatly benefited Chen Yu.

Although Chen Yu himself could easily slaughter opponents of that level by simply releasing a plant, it did not hinder his learning of the Planter's combat strategies.

"As for combat command, let's stop here for today," Zhou Bowen took a sip of tea, moistened his dry throat, and continued, "Next, let's talk about plant cultivation."

"Any combat technique of a Planter is based on the plants they cultivate."

"We can cultivate plants based on the composition of a regular team of professionals."

"Tankers, melee attackers, ranged attackers, controllers, debuffers, and so on..."

"In the beginner stage, there are not many plant types that can be grown, but there must be a limited number of plants for attack, control, and debuffing."

"..."

"Speaking of cultivating plants, let me briefly mention our professional skills."

"Let's not talk about optional skills for now, as those depend on personal opportunities."

"The two basic skills must be prioritized and trained to the maximum level."

"It's best to reach the maximum level before the first job change, so that you can directly obtain advanced skills after the job change."

"Of course, this cannot be forced. It's not worth delaying the job change just to train skills."

"Advanced skills? What are those?" Chen Yu quickly asked.

"You don't know?" Zhou Bowen asked in surprise.

"Please enlighten me, Teacher Zhou," Chen Yu respectfully said.

"Oh, I forgot. High school students usually awaken a month before the college entrance examination. In such a short time, reaching Level 20 is quite difficult, so there is no relevant knowledge in high school textbooks."

"You should know that when a skill is just learned, it is at Level 1, right?"

"Yes," Chen Yu nodded.

"Simply put, high-level skills that can only be learned after the first job change have much stronger effects than basic skills," Zhou Bowen explained.

"For beginner professionals, the skill level cap increases by one every time they reach Level 5."

"At Level 45, they can reach Level 10, the maximum level."

"If the skills are already at the maximum level when changing jobs, the basic skills at the maximum level will directly become Level 1 advanced skills after the job change."

"Depending on the difficulty of the job change task, at least one skill will be promoted, and at most, all skills will be promoted."

"If the basic skills are not at the maximum level, they cannot be promoted."

"After the first job change, professionals will only have two slots for advanced skills. If they want more advanced skills, they can only rely on the promotion of basic skills."

"Therefore, having one more basic skill at the maximum level during the beginner stage will greatly increase your combat power during the first job change."

"I see! Thank you, Teacher. I have learned a lot!" Chen Yu suddenly realized.

He decided that he needed to spend time to max out his skills.

Otherwise, wouldn't he miss the opportunity to obtain advanced skills for nothing?

"No need to thank me," Zhou Bowen shook his head. "These are specialized courses in college."

"Furthermore, there is one more crucial point about our Planters."

"That is, absolutely, absolutely prioritize the cultivation of high-quality plants!"

"The upper limit of a Planter's potential actually depends on high-quality plants."

"If you have a rare plant, you can easily defeat mutants of the same level."

"If you have an epic plant, defeating hidden professionals is a piece of cake."

"If you have a legendary plant... forget about what I said earlier about command and cooperation. It's all nonsense!"

"Anyway, let's not talk too much. Show me your best cultivated plant."

Based on the actual situation, I will give you some advice. This is also the main purpose for which Lao Jiang brought me here."
