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

Zhou Heng asked, "What did you name this six-horned flying dragon king?"

Li Lang grinned: "I named it Big Mouth. Look how big its mouth is. Its upper and lower jaws can easily open to 180 degrees, and it eats very quickly."

Zhou Heng couldn't help but tease, "Why are you always so casual about naming things? It was one thing to name the Ice Bear King 'Little Ice,' but now you're naming the Six-Horned Flying Dragon King 'Big Mouth.' Why don't you come up with something nicer?"

Li Lang curled his lip: "A name is just a label. I'm not a young master from a noble family like you, who has to cite classics and draw on a wide range of sources when naming a beast. In my opinion, a beast's name just needs to be easy to pronounce."

Zhou Heng explained, "I just think that a beast tamer is a contracted partner of a beast tamer, and giving them a nice name is a sign of respect. Besides, what do you mean by calling me a young master from a noble family? Don't forget, you also have noble blood in you."

Li Lang didn't take it seriously: "There are plenty of people with noble family blood, not just me. Besides, I didn't grow up in a noble family and I didn't learn the rules of noble families."

Zhou Heng sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation: "You rascal, I just can't do anything with you."

Li Lang subtly changed the subject: "I spent over 800 billion at the Xuanxiao Merchants Association before. Their rule is that large purchases qualify for a lottery, so I went and entered the lottery and actually won a fifth-tier treasure."

Zhou Heng chuckled and teased, "You're this happy about a mere fifth-tier treasure? How can you be so easily swayed?"

Li Lang recounted the whole story: "Don't underestimate this. It's the grand prize, and the odds of winning it are extremely low. When my dad was young, this grand prize was displayed at the Xuanxiao Merchants Association, and it was always used as a huge gimmick. After all, a fifth-tier treasure is still very precious on Xuanxiao Star. There were even rumors that the Merchants Association manipulated things behind the scenes, and no one could win the grand prize."

Zhou Heng gazed at the boundless waves in the distance and subconsciously said, "You got it. It seems the rumors weren't true."

Li Lang shook his head: "Who said that? I made a special inquiry later and found that the rumor is true."

Zhou Heng frowned: "Then how did you draw it?"

Li Lang beamed, a smug look on his face: "The one controlling the lottery was a high-ranking councilor's tamed beast. But that day, the beast stole a spirit fruit, causing its energy to become disordered, leading to a mishap in control, and that's how I won. Such a coincidence, it's probably all thanks to your Lucky Qilin King. This time I've truly witnessed the power of a mythical-quality tamed beast. This ability to boost someone's luck out of thin air is completely unreasonable. The word 'mythical' is truly the best description of a tamed beast of this level."

As the Lucky Qilin King listened to Li Lang's praises, he couldn't help but proudly raise his head.

Zhou Heng chuckled and patted the shrunken Fortune Qilin King beside him, saying to Li Lang, "Look how happy Cheng Rui is with just a few words from you!"

The Lucky Qilin King bent one hoof, looking shy: "Father, Uncle Li Lang is quite right."

Zhou Heng laughed heartily: "Haha! You're even calling me 'uncle' so quickly!"

Li Lang quickly stepped forward and ruffled the mane of the Lucky Qilin King: "Good Chengrui! You are truly a good nephew of your uncle. You must continue to help your uncle maintain his good luck. Your uncle will bring you delicious food every time he comes over."

The voice of the Lucky Qilin King was crisp and clear, like that of a young child: "Uncle Li Lang, actually, your good luck is not due to me, but to your father. Because your father can share my skills, and because you are very close to your father, your luck has been amplified so much. As long as you can maintain this relationship with your father, your luck will not be too bad."

Li Lang suddenly realized, "So that's how it is! This ability is truly amazing. It's like one person attains enlightenment and all their relatives and friends benefit. I've really benefited from this."

Zhou Heng corrected him from the side: "That's too vulgar. It should be 'When one person is promoted, everyone benefits.'"

Li Lang spread his hands and said deliberately, "Well, Chengrui, look at you, your father is showing off his culture in front of me again."

Zhou Heng remained expressionless: "Reading more books in your spare time is beneficial."

Li Lang clearly didn't take these words to heart: "We are beast tamers, and training beasts is our duty."

Zhou Heng didn't mind: "Never mind, as long as you're happy."

Afterwards, Li Lang put away the Six-Horned Flying Dragon King, and Zhou Heng and the six shrunken beasts led Li Lang to an elegant pavilion in the Ruilin Palace, where they had a pile of energy-rich spiritual tea and fruits served.

Not only were there some placed in front of him and Li Lang, but also in front of the Rainbow-Winged Azure Phoenix, the Overturning Sea Silver Dragon, the Eternal Night Demon Dragon, the Star-Devouring Kunpeng, the Titan Lord, and the Lucky Qilin King.

Although the Eternal Night Dragon doesn't eat any vegetarian food, a portion was still prepared for it, otherwise it would definitely feel that Zhou Heng was treating it differently and would be unhappy later.

The delicate fragrance of the incense lingered, and a warm, soft light seemed to appear out of nowhere in the room.

Zhou Heng and Li Lang leaned lazily against the soft couch, sipping spiritual tea and eating spiritual fruits.

Li Lang took a bite of the pear-shaped spiritual fruit, the juice was sweet and refreshing. He squinted his eyes in satisfaction, and then suddenly said, "Hey, do you know that your loyal dog Ji Chao might also be benefiting from Cheng Rui's nephew's luck? He's been having a lot of good luck lately."

Zhou Heng, engrossed in sipping his spiritual tea, didn't even look up when he heard this, and casually remarked, "What kind of luck did he have? Did he manage to contract with some rare beast?"

"More practical than that."

Li Lang waved his hand and chuckled, "A year ago, the Ji family made the decision to appoint Ji Chao as the young clan leader. A few days ago, Ji Chao's grandfather even voluntarily stepped down, allowing Ji Chao to directly become the clan leader. From now on, the entire Baoxiang Group will be inherited by him. He's only in his twenties, yet he's already firmly in the position of chairman. Although it's nothing to us, for Ji Chao, it's like a meteoric rise."

Zhou Heng's reaction was as indifferent as if he were listening to a weather forecast from six thousand years ago: "This is to be expected. Ji Chao is my dog, so his status can't be too low. As the head of the Ji family, he's barely qualified! After all, the Ji family doesn't even have a sixth-tier commander-level beast tamer."

Upon hearing this, Li Lang couldn't help but find it amusing, and continued, "There's something even more interesting! Commander Wu, you know him, is the head of the Xuanxiao Star Garrison."

He paused, as if giving Zhou Heng time to recall: "The Wu family took the initiative to reach out, wanting to form a marriage alliance with Ji Chao."

The commander of the city guard on a level one planet must be a sixth-level commander beast tamer. Zhou Heng had met this Commander Wu a few times.

Commander Wu was always very respectful whenever he saw Zhou Heng.
