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

Zhou Heng encouraged the principal of No. 3 Middle School, saying, "I am very relieved to have No. 3 Middle School in your care."

The principal of No. 3 Middle School immediately beamed with pride: "Thank you for your encouragement, Little Alliance Leader. I will certainly not let you down."

Zhou Heng nodded, chatted with Zhang Peng and the others for a few more minutes, and then turned and left.

He did not return directly to the Canglan Plane, but instead came to the Thousand Sound Blessed Land.

After entering the Blessed Land of a Thousand Sounds, all five beasts restored their original size and frolicked happily within the Blessed Land of a Thousand Sounds.

The Abyss Troll Zhang watched this scene respectfully, its eight claws pressed tightly against its body, signifying its submission.

Although it is a sixth-order extraordinary creature, its bloodline level is only high-level diamond. Facing beasts such as the Star-Devouring Kunpeng, Titan Lord, Rainbow-Winged Azure Phoenix, Overturning Sea Silver Dragon, and Eternal Night Demon Dragon, which are either overlords or mythical in quality, it does not dare to put on airs at all.

Furthermore, in terms of raw power, the Star-Devouring Kunpeng could kill it in a single move.

Moreover, it chose to submit to Zhou Heng, who became its master.

Due to the special status of beast tamers beside their masters, Zhou Heng's five beast tamers are essentially also the masters of the Abyss Troll Chapter.

Even in the afternoon, the five beasts were still leisurely playing in the Thousand Sound Blessed Land.

High-quality tamed beasts may possess intelligence comparable to that of humans, but compared to humans, their minds are usually not as complex. What might seem like mundane play to humans can keep them entertained for a long time.

On a mountain peak that is neither too high nor too low, there is an octagonal pavilion with a round table and several stools inside, and a pot of tea on the table.

Zhou Heng sat there, sipping tea, gazing at the five beasts in the sky, enjoying the cool breeze, feeling particularly comfortable and at peace.

Butler Huang stepped forward and reported, "Young Master, Young Master Li and Ji Chao request an audience."

Zhou Heng casually said, "Bring them over."

Butler Lao Huang accepted the order and left: "Yes!"

Soon, Li Lang and Ji Chao arrived outside the octagonal pavilion.

Ji Chao knelt respectfully on the ground: "Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Li Lang walked straight into the octagonal pavilion: "You seem quite leisurely."

Zhou Heng said languidly, "This is called stealing half a day of leisure from a busy life."

Li Lang teased, "Stop pretending to be cultured, acting like some ancient scholar."

Zhou Heng waved his hand and said, "Please sit down!"

Li Lang sat down right next to Zhou Heng.

Ji Chao dared not sit down, but only got up from the ground and stood up.

Li Lang asked casually, "What brings you here at this hour?"

A smile appeared in Zhou Heng's eyes: "Of course there's good news."

Li Lang raised an eyebrow: "Oh?"

Zhou Heng waved his hand and took out the sixth-grade high-quality Radiant Star pendant: "Try wearing it."

Li Lang's eyes narrowed: "What's this?"

Zhou Heng explained, "This is a high-grade sixth-tier life-saving equipment called Radiant Star. It can be activated automatically, briefly resisting attacks from sixth-tier extraordinary creatures, and can also teleport people away. It can be used a total of twelve times."

Li Lang didn't reach out to take it: "Why would you give me something so valuable?"

Zhou Heng looked into Li Lang's eyes and said, "Didn't you want a level 5 storage watch before? Back in your first year of high school, I promised you that I would give you a level 5 storage watch in the future, but your parents have already bought it for you. So today I'm giving you a life-saving piece of equipment as a graduation gift, and I wish you good luck on your exams in advance."

Li Lang was filled with emotion: "It was just a joke back then, I didn't expect you to still remember it."

Zhou Heng handed the Radiant Star to Li Lang, saying, "My memory has always been excellent."

Li Lang took the Radiant Star with both hands and examined it carefully: "A sixth-tier treasure! I've never even touched one before, especially the life-saving equipment among treasures. How much is this worth?"

Zhou Heng truthfully replied, "I didn't spend any money; I picked it out from among the Zhou family's businesses."

Ji Chao watched with extreme envy: "Our lord is truly generous to Young Master Li. A single piece of sixth-grade high-quality life-saving equipment is worth at least hundreds of billions of Alliance Coins. Apart from Young Master Li, our lord has never been this generous before."

Zhou Heng glanced at Ji Chao indifferently: "What? Are you complaining that I'm being too stingy with you?"

Ji Chao immediately knelt down: "This subordinate dares not, this subordinate only admires Young Master Li."

Zhou Heng waved his hand, signaling Ji Chao to get up.

Then, at Zhou Heng's urging, Li Lang solemnly put the Radiant Star pendant around his neck.

A golden-red rhombus-shaped gemstone hung on Li Lang's chest, making him appear even more handsome and extraordinary.

He fiddled with the Radiant Star pendant around his neck: "It's so beautiful! Ah Heng, I love this gift so much. It's a pity it's so precious, I don't even know how to reciprocate..."

Li Lang was extremely grateful to Zhou Heng, because although the life-saving equipment was also a treasure, it was more precious than other treasures of the same level.

This Tier 6 Radiant Star can withstand attacks from Commander-level enemies. Wearing this life-saving equipment is practically like having an extra life.

Zhou Heng didn't care at all: "We're all good brothers, there's no need for such talk between us. If our positions were reversed today, I believe you would give me a similar gift."

Li Lang was both delighted and excited: "Having a good brother like you, I must have accumulated a lot of good karma in my past life, maybe I even saved the world."

Looking at Li Lang's happy expression, Zhou Heng also revealed a knowing smile.

Li Lang fiddled with the Radiant Star pendant for a while, then suddenly noticed that the storage watch on Zhou Heng's wrist was different from before: "Did you change your storage watch again?"

Zhou Heng nodded: "My master gave it to me a few days ago."

Li Lang pressed further, "What tier of treasure is this?"

Zhou Heng's lips curled up: "Eighth-grade superior quality."

Li Lang was astonished: "My God! As expected of the strongest in the alliance, he just casually gave away an eighth-grade high-level treasure."

Zhou Heng said calmly, "To my master, this is nothing."

Li Lang composed himself and gazed at the Star-Devouring Kunpeng high in the distant sky, saying, "Speaking of which, why does the Star-Devouring Kunpeng seem so much bigger than the one I saw last time? Is it eating too well?"

Zhou Heng picked up a cup of tea from the table: "The meals are still the same as before, nothing has changed. Two star cores every year, along with some miscellaneous foods. Its size suddenly increased only because it advanced to the third level of the fifth rank."

Li Lang grasped the key point and his eyes widened suddenly: "Fifth Rank, Third Level? You mean the Star-Devouring Kunpeng has advanced to the fifth rank, third level? When did that happen?"

Zhou Heng put down his teacup: "Just two days ago."

Li Lang leaned closer to Zhou Heng and nudged him with his shoulder: "You really gave us a huge surprise without saying a word! Before, you cultivated the Star-Devouring Kunpeng to the second level of the fifth rank, breaking the record set by the Supreme Lord of the Sea-Stabilizing Seas, which was already astonishing. Now, you've actually taken it a step further, cultivating the Star-Devouring Kunpeng to the third level of the fifth rank—it's simply a miracle! You're truly amazing!"
