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

After Yu Mingtang left, many more clansmen came.

Zhou Heng's cousins, including Yu Xuan, Yu Ang, Zhou Honglie (his cousin), Zhou Hongyu (his cousin's daughter), and Zhou Yongchuan (his grandson), along with other direct relatives who had previously been acquainted with him, all came.

Zhou Heng was always friendly and approachable, and he met with them all.

The Canglan Plane was bustling with excitement because Zhou Heng had been promoted to a fifth-tier warrior beast tamer, and the joyous atmosphere even reached the Yanyang Plane.

Upon learning that Zhou Heng had advanced to the fifth-tier Beastmaster level at just twenty years old, Linglong Ancestor, Patriarch Li, Madam Li, and all of Zhou Heng's uncles rushed from the Yan Yang Plane to the Cang Lan Plane.

After Zhou Heng met them, he was showered with praise and compliments, and his ears were constantly filled with them.

Five days later, Yu Ming's cousin returned to Ruilin Island.

In front of Zhou Heng, he took out three transparent glass bottles containing blue liquid: "This is a fifth-grade superior medicine, Spirit Essence Source Liquid, which I asked a friend to make using Jade Soul Frost Crystal Spirit Essence as the main ingredient."

Jade Soul Frost Crystal Essence is a top-grade fifth-tier spiritual item, produced only in some very distant star systems.

Zhou Heng accepted the three bottles of Spirit Essence Liquid: "My cousin is indeed efficient."

Yu Ming, the cousin, said half seriously and half jokingly, "When doing things for my cousin, I dare not be inefficient."

Zhou Heng raised an eyebrow: "Cousin, you're too kind."

Zhou Heng then took out several sixth-tier spiritual items: "My cousin's beast is about to advance to the sixth tier, these things should be beneficial to it."

Yu Ming's cousin waved his hands repeatedly, "What are you doing, cousin?"

Zhou Heng pushed several sixth-tier spiritual items in front of his cousin Yu Ming: "I know you don't lack these, but I always believe in reciprocity. You helped me, so I naturally can't let you suffer a loss."

Yu Ming's cousin declined a few times, but in the end he accepted the spiritual item that Zhou Heng gave him.

Afterwards, Zhou Heng chatted with his cousin Yu Ming for a few more minutes before Yu Ming took his leave.

……

Inside the Wanbao Hall, the Wanbao Ancestor sat high at the head of the table.

The head of the Zhou family stood below.

Ancestor Wanbao stroked his beard: "Yuming is a good child. He was able to suppress his jealousy and take the initiative to assist Heng'er. He is able to consider the overall situation so much. He is a promising talent."

The old patriarch Zhou echoed, "Yu Ming is indeed a good child."

Ancestor Wanbao explained his plans for the younger generation of the family: "Heng'er is destined to reach the pinnacle of the universe. He probably won't be interested in the position of family head, and his personality is too carefree and he doesn't like to be restrained. Even if he becomes the family head, he'll probably quit after a few days. Yuming, on the other hand, although his talent is far inferior to Heng'er's, is a suitable candidate for family head. We can nurture him more in the future."

Patriarch Zhou immediately said, "I understand what the Ancestor means. I will have Yuan Kun teach him properly."

Yuan Kun is Zhou Heng's fourth uncle and the current head of the Zhou family.

Ancestor Wanbao then added, "However, Yuming's strength is not enough. Heng'er is already a fifth-tier battle general beast tamer. In the future, Heng'er's growth rate will be faster and faster. If Yuming wants to assist Heng'er in the future, he must at least have your strength as soon as possible."

The old patriarch of the Zhou family frowned slightly: "Yu Ming only has S-level talent. It's not possible for him to reach my level of strength in a short period of time."

"Let's try training them first!"

Ancestor Wanbao waved his hand and tossed out a pile of resources: "Give these to Yuming and tell him to quickly advance to the sixth-tier Commander Beastmaster."

……

Before they knew it, it was late October, and it was time for Zhou Heng to go to the Yongxu Sacred Realm to listen to the lectures.

He immediately shared the skills of the Star-Devouring Kunpeng, and with four shrunken beasts and two junior disciples, he instantly arrived in the Eternal Order Holy Realm from the Canglan Plane, where he met Emperor Xuanchen, who had been staying on Zichen Star.

Zhou Heng stepped forward and respectfully bowed, saying, "Greetings, Master."

Emperor Xuanchen's expression was extremely gentle: "Heng'er, you've raised the Star-Devouring Kunpeng to the fifth rank?"

Zhou Heng was overjoyed: "Master's eyes are truly discerning; the Star-Devouring Kunpeng has indeed advanced to the fifth rank, first level."

Emperor Xuanchen clapped his hands and laughed: "Not bad, very good! You are the fastest beast tamer I have ever seen in all these years. Even I couldn't compare to you back then."

Zhou Heng adopted a docile demeanor: "Master is too modest. I am still far from being as good as Master!"

The smile on Emperor Xuanchen's face never faded: "I'm not being modest, it's the truth. After all, your second talent is very advantageous in cultivating beast taming."

Zhou Heng politely replied, "It's all thanks to Master's meticulous guidance."

Emperor Xuanchen placed high hopes on Zhou Heng: "Our ancestor Dinghai only managed to cultivate his Beast Taming to the fifth rank, first level, right before the college entrance examination. I did the same back then. You've managed to cultivate the Star Devouring Kunpeng to the fifth rank, first level, with more than half a year left before the college entrance examination. I imagine that by the time the college entrance examination comes, the Star Devouring Kunpeng should be able to make another breakthrough. The record that our ancestor Dinghai has held for thousands of years will be broken by you."

Zhou Heng became even more modest: "It was just a fluke."

Emperor Xuanchen's eyes were full of admiration: "This is not a matter of luck. You contracted the Star-Devouring Kunpeng relatively late, but the level of the Star-Devouring Kunpeng is still far ahead of others. This is all due to your own ability."

Zhou Heng immediately replied, "Thank you for the praise, Master. I will definitely continue to work hard."

Emperor Xuanchen looked at Zhou Heng with increasing satisfaction and expectation: "I believe in you. With your talent, breaking the record set by our ancestor Dinghai during the college entrance examination is just the beginning. You will surely have many more glorious deeds that the world will remember in the future."

Zhou Heng said solemnly, "Thank you for your kind words, Master. I will certainly live up to your expectations."

Emperor Xuanchen nodded in satisfaction and then began the month's lectures.

After the lecture, Zhou Heng left the Eternal Order Sacred Realm with his four tamed beasts and two junior disciples, returning to the Canglan Plane.

Upon returning to Ruilin Island, Feng Zhong and Feng Yong reported that Yan Haosen and Wei Qingwen were outside requesting an audience.

Zhou Hengfei entered the purple seashell palace and immediately had Yan Haosen and Wei Qingwen invited in.

The two said in unison, "Greetings, Young Alliance Leader!"

Zhou Heng sat in the main seat: "Haosen, Qingwen, what brings you here today?"

Yan Haosen stepped forward and congratulated them, saying, "We heard that our young alliance leader has been promoted to a fifth-tier battle general and beast tamer, so we came here specifically to congratulate him!"

Zhou Heng smiled and said, "Your information network is quite impressive."

Wei Qingwen was both respectful and fearful: "It's not that we have good information, but that the Zhou family didn't cover up this news. Now the entire Yuanli Ancient Star knows that the Little Alliance Leader has cultivated the Star Devouring Kunpeng to the fifth level."

Zhou Heng remained expressionless: "It's not a big deal, it doesn't matter if you know."

Yan Haosen looked at him with admiration: "Young Alliance Leader, you truly have lofty ambitions. At only twenty years old, you've already advanced to a fifth-tier Battle General Beastmaster. I wonder how happy most people would be if that happened to you, but you remain so calm. It's truly admirable!"
