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

"It was opened up in the middle of the night..."

Ji Chao murmured repeatedly. He opened his mouth, trying to find the right words, but found that any description seemed pale and powerless in the face of such power: "This vast space is like the creation of the world, it's too shocking! This is not the power that mortals should have... And now, even a seventh-tier feudal lord beast tamer can be commanded at will?"

The Lord refers to Zhou Heng.

"It's just a blessed place."

Old Huang's tone remained calm, yet it was as if he were throwing one boulder after another into Ji Chao's heart: "Above the blessed land, there are also grotto-heavens, planes, and holy realms. Young Master is the junior alliance leader, and Lord Tianyin Marquis and Lord Qianren Marquis are Young Master's junior disciples. They follow Young Master to meet all his needs. You wouldn't understand these things even if I told you now. You just need to remember that your Ji family is lucky to have pledged allegiance to Young Master early on. You'll have plenty of opportunities to broaden your horizons in the future."

Ji Chao's chest heaved, his eyes welling with tears of emotion. He bowed deeply to the back of the steward, Old Huang, and even more so to Zhou Heng, the master of this blessed land: "Yes! Our Ji family will forever remember the great kindness and virtue shown to us by our lord..."

"Alright, alright."

Old Huang waved his hand, interrupting Ji's still-unfinished oath of loyalty, his expression unchanged: "No need to waste your energy on this old man. Save it for later when you speak to the young master yourself!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the Floating Cloud Sparrow let out a clear, long cry, folded its wings, and suddenly increased its speed, swooping down towards a certain direction deep within the blessed land.

The surrounding scenery rushed past, and the mist formed by the pure energy of heaven and earth was dispersed by the airflow.

Before long, a tranquil, turquoise lake came into view.

The lake water was astonishingly clear, reflecting the ever-changing light of the blessed land. The shore was covered with fine, soft, shimmering silver sand.

An antique-style bamboo recliner sits there.

The person in the chair was Zhou Heng.

He was dressed in a light blue casual outfit, and his posture was extremely lazy.

Holding snacks in one hand and a drink in the other, his gaze was fixed on the lake above.

Ji Chao followed Zhou Heng's gaze, and his heart pounded wildly again.

High in the sky, a colossal, breathtaking golden figure soared through the heavens.

With each swipe of its tail, the 80,000-meter-tall Kunpeng, the light in the sky would dim or brighten accordingly.

In the shallow waters by the lake, there stands a sycamore tree over a thousand meters tall. A colorful phoenix with a wingspan of 180 meters stands on a branch, gracefully lowering its long neck and preening the feathers on its wings with its beak. Each feather flows with a dreamlike iridescent luster.

In the deeper water, a slender silver dragon shadow appeared and disappeared intermittently, occasionally surging up, its 190-meter-long body stirring up a spray of water with each tail swipe.

Ji Chao remembered that his lord, Zhou Heng, had another beast, but it was not here.

The Eternal Night Dragon is exceptionally wild, and at this moment it is unknown where it is frolicking in the Thousand Sounds Blessed Land.

Just as the lark descended from its highest point, still several hundred meters from the shore of Silver Sand Lake, Ji Chao could no longer contain himself and leaped off its back.

While he was in the air, he used the power of a second-level senior beast tamer to easily dissipate the force of his fall.

As soon as he landed, he jogged along with an almost devout drive to Zhou Heng, who was lying on the bamboo chair.

Without the slightest hesitation, Ji Chao knelt down on both knees with a thud, then leaned forward, his palms and forehead touching the cold silver sand, completing a standard full prostration.

"My lord! I have finally seen you again! I pay my respects to my lord!" His voice trembled with excitement, and his forehead pressed against the ground.

Zhou Heng took a sip of his drink, looked at Ji Chao, whose posture was so humble, and remained silent for two seconds: "Just call me Little Alliance Leader. Don't keep calling me Lord. This is the interstellar era, not some feudal dynasty from seven or eight thousand years ago. It sounds really awkward."

Ji Chao raised his head, but remained kneeling upright, his face filled with unwavering sincerity: "Please forgive me, Little Alliance Leader! In my eyes, you are my god! The luckiest thing in my life is being able to serve you! I will definitely work hard to get into Beast Taming University and become more useful! I want to follow you forever and be your loyal dog!"

He seemed to grow more and more agitated as he spoke, his pace quickening: "The title 'Junior Alliance Leader' is an honorific used by outsiders to address you, which is certainly respectful but lacks intimacy! 'Lord' is the exclusive title used by your subordinates to address you, representing their boundless loyalty, unto death!"

After listening, Zhou Heng's gaze swept over Ji Chao's face, which was flushed with excitement, and then over the shimmering lake in the distance. He smiled faintly and said, "Since you want to be my dog ​​forever, fine, I'll grant you this favor. From now on, you can call me Master."

An indescribable light of ecstasy shone in Ji Chao's eyes. He prostrated himself deeply once more, his voice choked with emotion: "Thank you, Lord! Thank you for your grace!"

"Alright, stand up and talk."

Zhou Heng put down his drink: "Why are you in such a hurry to see me? What's the matter?"

Ji Chao then stood up, but still bowed to show respect.

He swiftly retrieved an antique-style, subtly shimmering cyan storage bracelet from his robes, holding it high above his head with both hands, his expression utterly solemn: "My lord, I have come here first to congratulate you on awakening your second talent and becoming a disciple of the Alliance's strongest expert! This is a momentous occasion, and the entire Ji family is honored!"

He paused, his voice becoming even more earnest: "Our Ji family knows that Your Majesty's current position is extraordinary, and ordinary things are unlikely to catch your eye. But this is ultimately a token of our Ji family's sincere sincerity! All the liquid assets our family can utilize, our years of business accumulation, plus a few ancestral treasures, are all here! Although they may be insignificant to Your Majesty, this is all the sincerity we can offer, and we humbly request that Your Majesty accept them!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Heng's eyes flickered slightly, and a wisp of invisible yet vast spiritual power instantly swept over the undefended storage bracelet.

This storage bracelet has a considerable internal space, roughly the same as the fifth-tier storage watch that Zhou Heng had previously discarded, approximately 100,000 cubic meters.

The mountain of Alliance Coins was very tempting, and various well-preserved rare materials were neatly categorized and arranged. In the deepest part, there were also several fifth-tier treasures and several sixth-tier spiritual items, which could indeed be considered family heirlooms of some small families.

A rough estimate suggests that the total value of this entire pile of items is probably around one trillion Alliance coins.

For the Ji family, who have been rooted in Xuanxiao Star for many years, this is almost all their savings for their funeral.

However, Zhou Heng's eyes showed little emotion.

With his current status and position, he could have as many resources as he wanted below the seventh rank.

He also possesses many seventh- and eighth-tier treasures.

Only ninth- or tenth-tier treasures could truly earn his attention.

The small token of Ji Chao's appreciation was indeed not enough to move him.
