As a veteran player who has been following since the official announcement of "Yushan Siming · Wangyou," besides being attracted by her mountain-and-water blade design and gentle shopkeeper image, my main concern is—what's the most hassle-free and effortless way to recruit her to my phantom beast team? After all, saving magic stones is crucial and I don’t want to spend too much time. Fortunately, after checking the official leaks, I found that this Golden Autumn pet acquisition is very friendly to regular players, with low entry barriers and straightforward steps. With a bit of planning, it’s easy to get.
Let’s start with the key step—the "Meet Wangyou" preheat event, which is the main way to get the discount. From October 3rd to 16th, as long as your Divine Fire Source Power score reaches 209,000, you can accumulate activity points by completing designated daily tasks. You can complete up to 3 times daily, and if you gather 2,000 points during the event, you unlock the "Wangyou Encounter Discount Card" with at least a 50% discount. This half-price deal is straightforward with no tricks, essentially slashing the phantom beast’s price in half, which is a real benefit for players who find it hard to save magic stones.
After obtaining the discount card, there’s no rush. The official team will distribute it via mail on October 17th. From that day until November 16th, we can use this card to buy the new phantom beast’s summoning token, the "Mountain God’s Blessing Hairpin." There’s no need to rush or spend extra resources—just accumulate activity points in advance, and then purchase whenever you want. This flexible timing is especially considerate for players with varied schedules.
So, how much can you actually save? Although the original price of the "Mountain God’s Blessing Hairpin" hasn’t been announced, based on similar past phantom beasts, the 50% discount can save us thousands or even tens of thousands of magic stones. These saved stones can be reserved for later development or invested in other gameplay aspects. Regarding time cost, the event lasts a full 14 days, allowing us to complete daily tasks while easily maxing out activity points without extra time or disrupting our usual gaming rhythm.
Besides the initial discount, the official previewed benefits during the development phase—starting October 17th, nurturing "Yushan Siming · Wangyou" offers a 100% magic stone rebate, and there’s even a chance to become a lucky winner and get it for free. Although the detailed rules will be announced on October 10th, the guaranteed "100% rebate" alone is reassuring, meaning subsequent investments can be recouped, further lowering the overall holding cost.
In summary, the Golden Autumn phantom beast acquisition method is very well designed: the threshold is reasonable—209,000 Divine Fire Source Power is achievable for most veteran players; the discount is generous—50% off is a rare big deal in recent years; and the timing is well arranged—no grinding required, without affecting normal gameplay experience.
If you want to bring this "Mountain God Shopkeeper" home in the most cost-effective way, my advice is to start on October 3rd by logging in daily and completing a few activity tasks to steadily earn the 50% discount card. Then, once the new phantom beast launches on October 17th, redeem it directly. As for me, I’m ready to check in from day one of the preheat—after all, getting a powerful and tea-brewing new companion at half price isn’t an opportunity that comes every autumn!
