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

Chapter 257 Entering the Blessed Land of Xuanxiao for a Banquet

Soon, the Moon Pelican traveled thousands of kilometers to reach the area where the naval base was located.

The naval base is an extremely large official residence, with a length and width both exceeding 10,000 meters.

Above the garrison headquarters, there is a purple vortex with a diameter of about three thousand meters, which is the entrance to the Xuanxiao Blessed Land.

After passing through the tunnel shrouded in a hazy glow, the view suddenly opened up before me.

Within the Xuanxiao Blessed Land, there is an endless plain. In the center and on both sides, there are interconnected pavilions and towers. This is the residential area of ​​the Xuanxiao Town Guardian and Deputy Town Guardian throughout the ages. Their families and some staff members live here.

Today, the entire blessed land is decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers.

To welcome the arrival of the new garrison commander, almost all the prominent beast tamers in Xuanxiao City came out, along with their families.

In total, tens of thousands of people gathered here, and with the addition of well-trained attendants and guards moving among them, the number was even larger.

But everything was in perfect order, without any sign of chaos.

In the central pavilion area, a palace built of purple jade rises from the ground. The newly appointed Xuanxiao Town Guardian sits in the main seat, with two deputy guards and the president of the Xuanxiao branch of the Beast Tamer Guild sitting beside him. More than twenty sixth-level commanders of Beast Tamers with auras as deep as the sea sit on both sides.

In addition, a few special fifth-tier warrior beast tamers, such as Zhou's father and mother, as direct descendants of large aristocratic families, also sat in the Emerald Palace with these big shots, highlighting the transcendent status of large aristocratic families.

Below the Emerald Palace was a high platform built of mutton-fat white jade, where ordinary fifth-tier warrior beast tamers and their families sat.

Further down, there is a wide plaza paved with ordinary green jade, which belongs to a larger number of fourth-tier Grandmaster Beast Tamers and their families.

As for beast tamers of even lower status, they were not qualified to attend the welcoming banquet at all.

After the principal and three vice-principals of No. 3 Middle School arrived with Zhou Heng and other students from the rocket class, they were immediately led by staff to sit on a high platform made of white jade.

All the teachers were fourth-tier Grandmaster Beast Tamers, so they could only sit on the Jade Square.

After taking their seats, Zhou Heng quickly spotted Wang Xuchen from No. 7 Middle School, Pang Jie from No. 6 Middle School, and Shi Jingqi from Xuehu High School.

When Zhou Heng was looking for them, they also found him. They nodded to each other and exchanged glances.

After waiting a while, the banquet officially began, starting with a speech by the newly appointed garrison commander, who appeared to be middle-aged.

The new garrison commander was granted the exclusive title of Ice Halberd by the alliance. As a seventh-tier noble beast tamer, he was called Ice Halberd Marquis.

Bingji Hou's voice was calm, yet carried an inherent majesty, clearly resounding throughout the entire blessed land.

The content was nothing more than encouraging everyone to work together to protect the peace of Xuanxiao Star.

The numerous sixth-tier commanders and beast tamers within the Emerald Palace nodded in agreement, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.

After the speech, we arrived at Zhou Heng's favorite part.

Waiters in uniform served delicacies like butterflies flitting among flowers. Each dish was made from rare and precious ingredients, not only delicious but also containing pure energy and of considerable value.

The event also featured meticulously choreographed songs and dances, as well as demonstrations of special beast-taming skills, which drew rounds of applause.

After several rounds of drinks, the atmosphere became increasingly lively.

Lord Bingji seemed quite enthusiastic, mentioning this year's Beast Taming College Entrance Examination: "I heard that this June, Gu Yixuan, a student from our Xuanxiao Star, achieved sixth place in the entire alliance! Our Xuanxiao Star's education system is truly excellent! This is a source of pride for the entire Xuanxiao Star!"

His gaze swept across the entire room, finally landing on the principal of No. 3 Middle School, where he specifically praised the principal.

The principal of No. 3 Middle School immediately stood up, appearing flattered.

Finally, Lord Bingji declared loudly, "I hope that next year, our Xuanxiao Star will produce another prodigy who will rank among the top ten in the entire alliance!"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the beast tamers in the room, regardless of their inner thoughts, outwardly echoed his sentiments, praising Ice Halberd Marquis for his foresight and wise leadership.

However, Zhou Heng knew that it would be difficult for Xuanxiao Star to produce a student who ranked in the top ten of the Beast Taming College Entrance Examination next year.

Yang Yixing, the strongest senior in Xuanxiao Star High School, has only cultivated his Beast Taming Meteorite Titan to the seventh level of the third tier. By the time of the college entrance examination, he will at most reach the tenth level of the third tier.

Although only five or six or seven students can reach the fourth level in the college entrance examination each year.

In theory, even at the third rank and tenth level, one could barely compete for a spot in the lower ten.

But in reality, the competition is too fierce.

Those who successfully compete for advancement are usually S-level geniuses from small, established families.

However, he thought about these words in his heart, and naturally he couldn't say them directly to the face of the Ice Halberd Marquis.

As Zhou Heng lowered his eyes in thought, Bingji Hou suddenly raised his hand and waved it. A stream of purple light shot out and transformed into a translucent purple rhombus-shaped pendant, which floated in mid-air in the blessed land.

The rhombus-shaped pendant emitted a soft yet powerful energy fluctuation, clearly indicating that it was a top-grade fifth-tier treasure.

"This item is called the Soul-Gathering Star, and it can withstand ten full-force attacks from a fifth-tier beast."

The voice of the Ice Halberd Marquis rang out: "All high school students present today may summon their beasts to participate in the competition. The rules are simple: whoever obtains the Soul-Gathering Star within half an hour will own it!"

Upon hearing this, the students instantly erupted in excitement!

A fifth-tier top-grade magic weapon is something that no one, except for Zhou Heng, a direct descendant of a large aristocratic family, would take seriously.

Many students were eager to try their luck and immediately summoned their own beasts.

In an instant, the roars of beasts and the cries of birds rose and fell, and all sorts of tamed beasts transformed into streaks of light, rushing toward the Soul-Gathering Star in mid-air.

The main participants in the competition were students from the top-tier senior classes of various schools. Since they all possessed A-level or higher talent, their beast taming skills generally reached the third tier, making them very powerful.

Most of the first and second-year high school students knew they were no match for their seniors and could only watch with envy as they displayed their prowess.

Zhou Heng, the strongest student in the room, did not make a move immediately.

He sat leisurely in his seat, observing the chaotic scene with great interest.

Inside the Emerald Palace, numerous sixth-tier commanders and beast tamers were engaged in lively discussion.

Vice President Chen seized the opportunity to praise Lord Ice Halberd: "A fifth-tier top-grade treasure! And it's the most valuable life-saving treasure of its tier, probably worth over 10 billion Alliance Coins! Although we can afford it, to give it away so easily, Lord Garrison is truly generous!"

Speaker Song stroked his beard and smiled, "I wonder which lucky senior high school student will get this."

Mu Xuezheng glanced in the direction of Zhou Heng and said, "He may not necessarily be a senior high school student. Yu Heng, the nephew of No. 3 Middle School, is the number one genius of Xuanxiao Star. Although he is only a junior high school student this year, his strength is not to be underestimated."
