Beginner’s Guide#

Master of the World is a Chinese-mythology cultivation idle RPG. Set one expectation before starting: daily battles don’t need you at the controls — configuration and progress are the real gameplay. This guide covers what to do (and not do) at the start, from verifiable material only.

1. Claim the Newcomer Rewards First#

The official store listing names three newcomer rewards, all worth confirming on day one:

Exact claim entrances and rules follow the game. The 400 summons tie directly into True Spirit summoning — see section 6.

2. Character Creation: The Three Classes#

The first real decision is your class. The three classes’ full titles and Foundation-era core divine arts:

When unsure, pick by the output rhythm you enjoy. All three classes can clear every daily content — there is no “wrong pick ruins the account” scenario. Detailed differences live in the Class Analysis page.

3. Interface and Controls#

Daily battles run themselves; only three areas need your hands:

For controls, remember one thing: auto-battle is the default state. The Demon-Suppressing Tower even offers an “auto-next-floor” checkbox for hands-free climbing; take manual control only when auto can’t clear something.

4. The Opening Route#

The first days aren’t about power — they’re about establishing the loop.

1. Follow the story and tutorials to learn the interface and auto-battle;
2. Claim all three newcomer rewards;
3. After choosing a class, raise its core divine art first;
4. Join an active sect early — Sect Realms and co-op dungeons require one;
5. Set “reach Foundation Establishment (Early), Layer 4” as your near-term goal — True Spirit summoning opens there;
6. Settle one or two main fighting True Spirits and concentrate resources on them.

5. The Daily Rhythm#

An idle game’s income comes mostly from “fixed actions,” so rhythm matters more than intensity:

6. Starting with True Spirits#

True Spirits are the game’s most important horizontal growth line. The acquisition rules are verified:

• True Spirit summoning opens at Foundation Establishment (Early), Layer 4, inside the Blessed Land;
• Summons cost Heavenly Sound Bells; rarity spans Immortal, Sacred, and Sacred · Rare tiers;
• Every 10 summons guarantees one random full Sacred-rarity True Spirit card;
• The 400 free newcomer summons are usable the moment it opens.

At the start, prioritize a vulnerability slot (Nezha, Bai Ze) — it helps nearly every lineup. After that, add crit-oriented spirits (for Wanjian) or core-divine-art damage spirits (for Lingxiao, Yutian) per your class. Don’t chase a full collection at first — True Spirit value concentrates in a few key picks.

7. Common Misconceptions#

• Playing an idle game like an action game: manual daily input yields nothing extra;
• Retrying the same stage over and over: walls are normal, and every tower attempt burns one Demon-Slaying Token (success or fail) — growth is cheaper than brute force;
• Spreading resources evenly: the biggest waste in any idle game;
• Ignoring idle income: cultivation comes from idle spirit clusters; a lapse is lost progress;
• Skipping the tutorials: True Spirit summoning and “My Presets” both unlock early — skipping them costs detours;
• Trusting unsourced numbers: gacha rates and similar figures are unpublished; treat guides full of mystery numbers as fabrications first.

8. Information Boundaries#

This page carries only what can be checked against official material and the game’s interface. The following are omitted because they cannot be verified:

• XP requirements, exact daily output and idle income figures;
• The complete sub-layer list per realm and breakthrough success rates;
• The official True Spirit total and full roster.

The in-game tutorials, system descriptions and interface tips are the authoritative source; where this page disagrees, the game wins.
