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

"Fourth Rank, First Level! Gu Yixuan's Heavenly Fire Demon Flame Scorpion has really broken through to the fourth rank!" Li Lang exclaimed in shock, his face filled with astonishment.

Zhou Heng was genuinely happy for Gu Yixuan: "Senior Gu Yixuan has already secured a place in the top ten of this year's Beast Taming College Entrance Examination. The principal and teachers should be very happy."

Such a huge commotion had already alarmed all the faculty and staff on campus.

shhhhhh...

Auras of the fourth rank and above rose from every corner of the school and quickly converged here.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of figures floated above Gu Yixuan's villa.

Leading the group were the principal and three vice-principals of No. 3 Middle School, followed by six directors of teaching affairs.

More ordinary teachers also rushed over, most of them with expressions of shock and excitement on their faces.

Students advancing to the fourth rank before the college entrance exam is a major event that the naval base pays close attention to, and they will definitely receive a substantial bonus this year.

Some teachers were also feeling melancholy. Gu Yixuan had become a fourth-level Grandmaster Beast Tamer at such a young age, while most of them were already in their seventies or eighties and were only fourth-level Grandmaster Beast Tamers. The gap between them was simply too great.

Not to mention that there was Zhou Heng, who was even more talented than Gu Yixuan, in the first year of high school, making these old guys look even more useless.

However, as teachers, they always kept in mind the ancient saying that disciples need not be inferior to their teachers, and teachers need not be more virtuous than their disciples, and they quickly calmed down.

The group, led by the principal of No. 3 Middle School, hovered in mid-air. They first glanced in the direction of Feng Yi Qingluan, and then stared intently at the enormous and powerful Heavenly Fire Demon Flame Scorpion, and began to talk in low voices.

After exchanging a few words, seeing that the Heavenly Flame Demon Scorpion's aura had completely stabilized, the principal of No. 3 Middle School was so excited that his beard trembled slightly, and his voice echoed in all directions: "Good! Yixuan, congratulations! The Heavenly Flame Demon Scorpion has successfully advanced to the fourth rank! You have won great glory for No. 3 Middle School!"

"Yeah yeah!"

"Yixuan has really made our Third Middle School proud!"

"Our No. 3 High School has come out on top among all the top-tier Beast Taming High Schools..."

The school leaders around them nodded in agreement, their faces beaming with smiles and their eyes full of admiration.

Gu Yixuan was thrilled to have gained the approval of so many teachers and mentors.

Fortunately, he was used to big occasions, so he tried his best to remain calm: "Thank you for your praise, Principal and teachers. I owe my achievements today to your guidance and support. I will definitely continue to do so in the future..."

Upon hearing this, the smiles on the faces of many teachers grew even warmer.

On the other side, Li Lang swallowed hard and exclaimed with emotion, "So many years have passed, and finally, another student from our Xuanxiao Star has reached the fourth rank before the college entrance examination!"

Zhou Heng nodded with a deep gaze: "Senior Gu will become the second person on Xuanxiao Star to achieve this in the college entrance examination in nearly thirty years! The last one was that senior from No. 5 High School a few years ago. Going back further, it would be thirty years ago."

Li Lang's tone was tinged with envy: "My parents used to tell me that as long as I could reach the fourth rank before the college entrance exam, I would be guaranteed to be in the top ten of the Beast Taming College Entrance Exam! You said the same thing today, so it seems to be true."

Zhou Heng nodded: "Of course it's true."

Li Lang's eyes widened in shock: "So, by that calculation, every year in the entire East Asia region, fewer than ten high school seniors can cultivate their Beast Taming to the fourth rank?"

Zhou Heng calmly analyzed, "High school only lasts three years. Apart from a few students who awaken S-level talents and form contracts with overlord beasts, the chances of the rest, even with the same S-level talents and a high-grade diamond-quality beast, advancing to a fourth-tier grandmaster beast tamer during high school are extremely slim. Therefore, every year during the college entrance examination, there are indeed fewer than ten people in the entire universe who can cultivate their beasts to the fourth tier, sometimes even fewer than five. Senior Gu's talent is very unique, the same type as Xiao Gao's, but at a higher level, which is why he was able to advance to the fourth tier before the college entrance examination."

Li Lang looked at Zhou Heng, his eyes filled with trust: "I don't know about others, but you will definitely become a fourth-tier Grandmaster Beast Tamer when you take the Beast Taming College Entrance Examination. At this rate, your three beasts should advance to the fourth tier by the time you are in your second year of high school. Becoming the top scorer in the East Asia region is a sure thing. Maybe your beast taming level will even break the historical record when you take the Beast Taming College Entrance Examination!"

Zhou Heng shook his head: "The Beast Taming College Entrance Examination has been held for thousands of years, and many talented people have emerged. For me, becoming the top scorer in the Eastern Alliance is not difficult, but breaking the historical record is still very difficult. You know, most of the twelve SSS-level Beast Tamers in the past six thousand years also participated in the College Entrance Examination. Their historical records are not easy to break."

Li Lang didn't take it to heart: "There's no need to compare yourself to those ancient people. Among your contemporaries and peers, you're already invincible."

Zhou Heng smiled but remained silent.

On the other side, the principal encouraged Gu Yixuan a few more times and announced on the spot that the school would give Gu Yixuan a large sum of resources as a reward, which aroused the envy of many students watching below, who wished they could take his place.

After a while, the school leaders and teachers finally left, still feeling quite unsatisfied.

Zhou Heng said to Li Lang, "Let's go over and congratulate Senior Gu."

Li Lang nodded: "Okay!"

In the blink of an eye, the phoenix and the blue phoenix landed in front of Gu Yixuan's villa.

Gu Yixuan was clearly still in a state of extreme excitement, his face flushed with emotion.

He saw Zhou Heng and Li Lang coming over and immediately went to greet them.

The Heavenly Fire Demon Scorpion shrank back to the size of a palm, but still radiated astonishing heat and powerful pressure, and obediently lay on Gu Yixuan's shoulder.

At this moment, Gu Yixuan was surrounded by seven people.

They were also students in the senior year advanced class.

There are a total of eight students in the top-performing class of the senior year at No. 3 Middle School.

Apart from Gu Yixuan, who has an S-level talent, the other seven are all A-level talents.

Among the seven, Ge Lijuan, who comes from the wealthiest family, has already reached the third rank, sixth level in beast taming.

The one from the poorest family, his beast taming skill has only just reached the second level of the third tier.

Upon seeing that Gu Yixuan had become a fourth-tier Grandmaster Beast Tamer before the college entrance examination, the seven of them came together to congratulate him.

Although according to ASEAN regulations, before the college entrance examination, a Beast Tamer can be guaranteed admission to university as long as they can train any Beast to the third tier, first level.

However, there is an insurmountable gap between universities in the third, second, and first tiers, and their future achievements are incomparable.

"Junior Zhou Heng, Junior Li Lang, you've arrived!" Gu Yixuan greeted them with a smile, his voice filled with undisguised joy.

Congratulations, senior!

Zhou Heng smiled and said, "A fourth-tier grandmaster at twenty-one years old—that's a meteoric rise! From now on, he's bound to soar to great heights! Truly remarkable!"

Li Lang quickly chimed in, "Ah Heng is right, Brother Gu, you're amazing! You're definitely going to be the regional champion of Xuanxiao Star this year!"
