Genius Beast Taming: Starting from Awakening an S-Rank Talent

The principal of No. 3 Middle School, who was in the main stands, immediately stood up to greet him: "Commander, what brings you here?"

Commander Xu casually remarked, "Isn't today your Third Middle School's final grade-level competition? I've got nothing better to do, so I thought I'd take this opportunity to witness the brilliance of these top students from our Third Middle School! What? You don't welcome me?"

The principal of No. 3 Middle School bowed and said, "Not at all, not at all. But I remember your grandson, Xu Zhuofei, is at No. 1 Middle School. Didn't you go there to cheer him on?"

Commander Xu sighed, "His talent is too ordinary, only a B-level. He doesn't work hard either. It's already the end of the first semester of his second year of high school, and he still hasn't raised his Beast Taming to the third level. I get angry every time I see him. I need to come to your No. 3 High School to see more outstanding juniors before I can feel at ease."

The principal of No. 3 Middle School flattered him, saying, "Your grandson will definitely be a late bloomer!"

Commander Xu smiled and said, "Principal Wan, you're getting better and better at talking."

The principal of No. 3 Middle School quickly said, "Please take a seat."

Commander Xu, without hesitation, sat directly in the original seat of the Third Middle School principal, very close to Zhou's father, while the Third Middle School principal could only sit to the side.

After Commander Xu delivered another speech, the formal end-of-term grade competition began.

As per previous practice, the students in grades 10, 11, and 12 were first ranked according to their level, and then they were allowed to compete freely to determine the final ranking.

Zhang Peng's other Beast Taming Mirror Bat manifested a huge purple screen, on which golden characters appeared.

First, there are the senior high school students. The top student in the grade is still Gu Yixuan, who has cultivated his Beast Taming to the third tier, tenth level. The second student in the grade is named Ge Lijuan, who has only cultivated her Beast Taming to the third tier, fifth level.

Li Lang couldn't help but whisper to Zhou Heng, "When we first started school last September, Gu Yixuan was at the third level, tenth stage. He's still at the third level, tenth stage now. In the past six months, he hasn't improved at all."

Zhou Heng explained, "Once you reach the tenth level of the third tier, it becomes difficult to advance further. Once you break through, you can go from a third-tier elite beast tamer to a fourth-tier grandmaster beast tamer. This represents a qualitative leap. Among the hundreds of billions of new students in the alliance each year, an average of about two hundred S-level talents emerge. However, by the time of the college entrance examination, only six or seven people can actually cultivate their beast taming to the fourth tier. As long as he can break through to the first level of the fourth tier before the beast taming college entrance examination in June this year, he will definitely be in the top ten of the college entrance examination."

Li Lang nodded: "I hope he can break through! That way, the principal and all the teachers will also look good."

Zhou Heng nodded: "I hope so."

Next up were the second-year high school students. Fang Yushu was also the top student in the grade, having reached the second level of the third tier. The second-ranked student in the grade had also reached the first level of the third tier.

Both of them have A-level talent, so the difference between them is not significant.

Unlike in the senior year, where the top student is S-level and the second-place student is A-level, the difference is more noticeable.

Soon it was the turn of the first-year high school students.

Zhou Heng was naturally the top student in the grade. All three of his beasts were at the third tier, seventh level, giving him a crushing advantage over the other first-year students.

The second-ranked student is Li Lang, who is also outstanding compared to ordinary students, as he is a second-tier, eighth-level Ice Bear King.

As for the third in the grade, ranked by level, it is Gao Wenwu, a second-tier fourth-level martial artist.

However, his actual combat strength is not enough to reach third place in the grade, and he will inevitably be pushed down by others later.

……

In the main stands, everyone's eyes lit up.

Assistant Fang of the garrison exclaimed in admiration, "Truly worthy of being Zhou Xuezheng's son! I remember during the first monthly exam and grade-level competition, your son gave us a pleasant surprise. Now, his momentum shows no signs of slowing down; it looks like he's about to directly reach the fourth tier!"

Zhang Yunfeng's father chimed in, "Compared to the son of the Provincial Education Commissioner, our son is like a pheasant compared to a phoenix! It's like heaven and earth."

Ji Chao's grandfather flattered him, saying, "The Academic Commissioner comes from a noble family; how can we compare to him? His son is equally extraordinary; our descendants can't even look up to him."

Li Shiliang's grandfather also said, "Indeed, indeed..."

The others also praised Zhou Heng highly.

Upon hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Zhou simply wore appropriate smiles, appearing quite calm and composed.

Finally, Commander Xu spoke up, praising, "Brother Zhou, you've truly raised a fine son!"

Mr. Zhou responded with a smile, "It's all thanks to the blessings and protection of our ancestors."

Commander Xu exclaimed repeatedly, "It's truly enviable to have such an outstanding son! My nephew will surely bring glory to the family in the future, and you and your wife will be blessed."

Mr. Zhou was very shrewd in social interactions: "Last time I saw several of my nephews and nieces, they were all outstanding and equally enviable."

Commander Xu's eyes revealed a trace of sorrow: "In the end, I can't compare to you, my brother. None of my children and grandchildren have reached the S-level talent level, unlike you, my brother, who has raised a son who surpasses his father."

Father Zhou immediately comforted him, saying, "A sixth-tier Beast Tamer Commander has a lifespan of 240 years. Brother Xu is currently in his prime, and there is a possibility that he will be ennobled in the future. Once ennobled, he will have a lifespan of 360 years. During this time, he should be able to have an offspring with S-level talent."

The principal of the Third Middle School chimed in, "The Academic Commissioner is right. The Commander really doesn't need to be so anxious."

Zhang Peng flattered, "They say a tiger father begets no dog son. With you, Commander, your children are sure to all be successful."

Li Lang's father agreed: "That's right, that's right..."

"Hearing you say that makes me feel much better."

Commander Xu then said, "Besides my nephew Zhou Heng, the second-ranked student surnamed Li is also quite good among this year's first-year high school students."

The principal of No. 3 Middle School immediately said, "This is the son of General Manager Li of Feixue Group."

Commander Xu looked pleased: "This child was able to cultivate his Beast Taming to the eighth level of the second tier within this period of time. Although he can't compare to my nephew Zhou Heng, he is still one of the most outstanding students with A-level talent in the entire Xuanxiao City."

Li Lang's father beamed with joy: "Thank you for your praise, Commander."

Assistant Fang seized the opportunity to interject: "Last time we were saying that the Academician's son was likely to be the top scholar in the Southeast Asian Championship the year after next, and the Academician was quite modest about it. Now it's a done deal, isn't it?"

Father Zhou remained calm and composed: "I'll say it again, the top ten are a sure thing, but whether they can become the top scorer in the college entrance examination and become the overall champion is hard to say. After all, there are four core planets on our thirty-six first-level planets! A few S-level students from large and top families have talents comparable to Heng'er and are not lacking in resources. There will inevitably be fierce competition."
