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

Zhou Heng's reasons were quite valid. He said to his parents, "If there's really no other way, then so be it. I don't feel wronged. I just hope that my child can have better aptitude. Putting aside the matter of bringing glory to the family, if the child doesn't have good talent in the future and can't become a high-level beast tamer, and has a short lifespan, I will be very sad to see my child die before I do."

Upon hearing this, Zhou's mother said seriously, "My dear son, we completely understand your concerns. The eighth-rank Sun Soul Essence Life-Generating Divine Flower is indeed a bit low-grade; we should at least prepare a ninth-rank one for you. If we can't find one for now, then we'll wait until we find one."

Although Zhou's father did not speak, he clearly shared the same meaning as Zhou's mother.

Zhou Heng finally smiled: "I'm glad my parents understand."

Afterwards, Zhou Heng brought his parents to the Wanbao Hall and met the Wanbao Ancestor.

Zhou Heng explained his concerns to Ancestor Wanbao.

After pondering for a moment, Ancestor Wanbao said to Zhou Heng, "Our family currently only has an eighth-tier Sun Soul Yuan Evolution Life Body Nurturing Divine Flower, and the Li family is the same. However, the Xuanwu Ling family, as the head of the aristocratic families, has produced an unparalleled expert like the Dinghai Supreme, and has a profound foundation. They should have a tenth-tier Qianling Yuan Evolution Life Body Nurturing Divine Flower. Even if they don't have a tenth-tier Qianling Yuan Evolution Life Body Nurturing Divine Flower, they must have a ninth-tier Kunyi Yuan Evolution Life Body Nurturing Divine Flower. Why don't you go and borrow one from the old alliance leader?"

Zhou's father looked worried: "Ancestor, is this really going to work? The old Alliance Leader, as Heng'er's master, has already helped Heng'er many times. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to trouble him again this time?"

Ancestor Wanbao countered, "What's inappropriate about it? Heng'er and the old Alliance Leader aren't just ordinary master and disciple; Heng'er is the old Alliance Leader's successor. In a sense, the old Alliance Leader's relationship with Heng'er is closer than yours. Besides, you don't understand the psychology of a teacher. For the old Alliance Leader, he's not afraid of Heng'er bothering him; he's afraid of Heng'er not bothering him. Because through this back-and-forth, Heng'er's relationship with the old Alliance Leader can become even closer."

Zhou Heng chuckled and teased, "Dad used to teach me similar principles, how come he's forgotten now?"

Father Zhou sighed, "I was just worried and confused. After all, the old alliance leader isn't an ordinary beast tamer. He's the strongest in the alliance and is about to advance to a tenth-tier supreme beast tamer, reigning supreme over the universe. Even if your talent is unparalleled, if you displease the old alliance leader, I'm afraid..."

Ancestor Wanbao shook his head: "Humans are not plants or trees, how can they be without feelings? Heng'er and the old alliance leader get along very well, how could she be unhappy because of some material possessions? If the old alliance leader were really so narrow-minded, he wouldn't have given Heng'er the mythical-quality Fortune Qilin King in the first place. Even if the Yuan Yan Life Body Nurturing Divine Flower is a tenth-tier item, it's just a spiritual object with a very limited use, and it's definitely not as valuable as a mythical-quality beast cub."

Upon hearing this, Zhou's father suddenly understood: "Thank you for clearing up my doubts, Ancestor."

Mother Zhou said softly, "Now that you've said that, my husband and I understand."

Zhou Heng immediately said, "Ancestor, Father and Mother, I will go to the Eternal Order Sacred Realm to ask Master for a higher-level Yuan Yan Life Body Nurturing Divine Flower."

Ancestor Wanbao smiled and nodded: "Go quickly!"

……

Eternal Order, Sacred Realm.

Zhou Heng went straight to Zi Chen Star and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Master."

Emperor Xuanchen opened his eyes: "Today isn't a lecture day, so what brings you here to your teacher?"

Zhou Heng looked a little hesitant: "Well, I'd like to ask Master for a favor."

Emperor Xuanchen jokingly said, "You little rascal, you never come here without a reason. Have you gotten yourself into trouble and want your master to clean up the mess for you?"

Zhou Heng composed himself and quickly recounted the whole story: "Master, this is what happened. I intend to remain unmarried for life, but my parents want me to continue the family bloodline, so they plan to use the Yuan Yan Life-Generating Divine Flower to create a child with my genes. However, the highest grade in my family is currently only an eighth-order Sun Soul Yuan Yan Life-Generating Divine Flower. As you know, the higher the grade of the Yuan Yan Life-Generating Divine Flower, the greater the probability that the child spawned will have good talents."

Emperor Xuanchen instantly understood: "You want to ask your master for a higher-grade Yuan Yan Life Body Nurturing Divine Flower?"

Zhou Heng quickly replied, "I wanted to borrow one from you, and I'll return it to you when I find another one."

Emperor Xuanchen waved his hand, displaying immense generosity: "Why talk about borrowing between us? Giving you one will suffice. However, the only ones I have on hand are ninth-tier. The only tenth-tier one I discovered was discovered too early and isn't fully ripe yet. If you need it urgently, I can have someone help you ripen it."

Zhou Heng immediately said, "Thank you, Master. Just give me a ninth-tier one."

Emperor Xuanchen pondered for a moment, a complex expression on his face. "I'll still give you a tenth-tier one! Your second talent is exceptionally top-tier even among SSS-level beings. You're only twenty-one this year, and you're guaranteed to become a tenth-tier Supreme Beast Tamer in the future, living for at least another 1,700 years! If your child's talent isn't good enough, resulting in a short lifespan, wouldn't you be heartbroken in vain? I had many children back then, but unfortunately, their talents were all mediocre, and I sent them all away early. I don't want you to have the same experience. Although using a tenth-tier Qianling Yuan Life-Generating Divine Flower doesn't guarantee that the child spawned will have exceptionally good talent, at least the probability of a child with good talent is higher, which makes it worth the gamble."

Zhou Heng empathized with Emperor Xuanchen's experience: "I understand Master's good intentions, and I will listen to Master in everything. I just don't know how to accelerate the ripening of a tenth-tier Qianling Yuanyan Life-Generating Divine Flower?"

Emperor Xuanchen stroked his beard: "There are two ways for this flower to mature. One is to let time slowly ripen it, absorbing cosmic energy until it matures naturally. The other method is to artificially accelerate its ripening. If done properly, a mature Yuan Yan Life Body Nurturing Divine Flower can be obtained in a short time. However, this method requires a large amount of Tears of Sincerity."

Zhou Heng frowned in thought, puzzled: "Tears of deepest emotion?"

Emperor Xuanchen explained to Zhou Heng: "Tears of joy, tears of sorrow, tears of grief, tears of despair, and tears of emotion, etc., these tears shed by intelligent beings due to intense emotional fluctuations, all belong to the category of tears of profound emotion. For example, when a person encounters something particularly joyful, or when their circumstances improve significantly, they may cry tears of joy. These tears can be called tears of joy, which are a type of tears of profound emotion."
