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

Zhou Heng's eyes flickered, and in an instant, many things came to mind: "With so many precious resources, even if Hanyue University has a deep foundation, it's impossible for them to just take them out casually. Senior brother, are you deliberately trying to empty Hanyue University's inventory?"

Fourth Senior Brother Rong Tu Wang revealed a meaningful smile: "It's not that I deliberately emptied the bank, but these treasures are just sitting in our Hanyue University's inventory anyway, so I might as well give them to you. After all, you're my junior brother, one of our own."

Zhou Heng frowned: "Isn't this...?"

Fourth Senior Brother Rongtu Wang made no attempt to hide anything from Zhou Heng, saying earnestly, "Junior Brother, I know what you're trying to say. If there were no benefits, why would I, a dignified eighth-tier Monarch Beast Tamer, take on the role of university president? In the past, with the Dry Ice King of the Ice Shark Yue family and the Hengyi King of the Iron-Eating Wei family keeping me in check, I couldn't so openly extend my reach into the Cold Moon University's coffers. But now that you're here, things are different."

Zhou Heng was puzzled: "Will my arrival bring about significant changes to Hanyue University?"

Fourth Senior Brother Rong Tu Wang revealed a smug look: "You are an SSS-level unparalleled genius, and your importance to Han Yue University is self-evident. Therefore, it is perfectly reasonable for me to propose taking out the precious resources in our inventory specifically for you in this freshman welfare event. Qian Bing Wang and Heng Yi Wang have no reason to object, and the others are even more helpless. Even if they know that this Tianwei Treasure Hunt Competition is entirely a benefit prepared for you, they can't say anything. After all, in terms of form, everything is in compliance with regulations."

Zhou Heng nodded: "I understand."

Fourth Senior Brother Rongtu Wang continued, "Your Rainbow-Winged Azure Phoenix, Overturning Sea Silver Dragon, and Eternal Night Demon Dragon will soon advance to the fifth tier, at which point we can initiate their evolution rituals. The Rainbow-Winged Azure Phoenix can evolve into the Three-Headed Azure Phoenix, a superior overlord. As the evolution route officially controlled by the Alliance, I have reviewed it before. I remember it requires nearly two thousand types of seventh-tier resources and fifty or sixty types of eighth-tier resources, right?"

Zhou Heng nodded: "That's right."

Fourth Senior Brother Rongtu Wang then asked, "Where is the Eternal Night Demon Dragon?"

The evolution path of the Eternal Night Demon Dragon is different from that of the Rainbow Winged Azure Phoenix.

The evolution path of the Rainbow-Winged Azure Phoenix has been recorded by the Alliance official, and any high-level beast tamer of the Alliance official can view it.

The evolution path of the Eternal Night Dragon was originally unique to the Red Sun Society. Later, the current leader of the Red Sun Society, Blood Fiend King, handed over the evolution path along with the Eternal Night Dragon to the Golden Crow Li family. Therefore, among the aristocratic families, only the Golden Crow Li family knows the subsequent evolution path of the Eternal Night Dragon.

It's perfectly normal that the fourth senior brother, Rongtu Wang, being a member of the Zhang family of the Heavenly Serpent, wouldn't know the subsequent evolutionary path of the Eternal Night Demon Dragon.

Zhou Heng replied, "The amount of resources required for the Eternal Night Demon Dragon to evolve into the Abyss Demon Dragon, a superior overlord, is about the same as that required for the Rainbow Winged Azure Phoenix."

Fourth Senior Brother Rong Tu Wang continued, "I heard from Master that you are preparing to evolve the Overturning Sea Silver Dragon into the Lower-Rank Mythical Guixu Divine Dragon. Although I am not clear about the specific evolution ritual of the Overturning Sea Silver Dragon, to evolve from a mid-rank overlord to a Lower-Rank Mythical Dragon in one step, especially with the Guixu Divine Dragon being such a difficult creature, the resources consumed must be considerable, right?"

Zhou Heng truthfully replied, "Just as my senior brother said, for the Overturning Sea Silver Dragon to evolve into the Returning Void Divine Dragon, it needs 1,500 kinds of eighth-tier resources and dozens of kinds of ninth-tier resources."

Fourth Senior Brother Rong Tu Wang's attitude towards Zhou Heng became increasingly amiable: "I know your talent. You can make your tamed beasts show signs of autonomous evolution before initiating the evolution ritual. Although this method has a 100% success rate, it still requires at least one evolution ritual. The three tamed beasts—the Rainbow Winged Azure Phoenix, the Overturning Sea Silver Dragon, and the Eternal Night Demon Dragon—together require over 4,000 types of seventh-tier resources, over 1,600 types of eighth-tier resources, and dozens of types of ninth-tier resources. Although you have the support of the Zhou and Li families, these resources are still a considerable amount. That's why I thought of using the freshman welfare event to take out the high-level resources from Hanyue University's inventory and send them to you. This way, it can also slightly make up for some of the deficit of the Zhou and Li families."

Although Zhou Heng might not need the high-level resources that his fourth senior brother Rong Tuwang took from Hanyue University's inventory when evolving the Rainbow Winged Azure Phoenix, the Overturning Sea Silver Dragon, and the Eternal Night Demon Dragon, as long as they are high-level resources, they can be bartered through various channels to obtain the resources he needs.

Furthermore, although Zhou Heng is the hope for the rise of the Zhou and Li families, he is not the only one in the Zhou and Li families who needs to use various resources to evolve his beast taming skills.

Besides him, many other members of the clan also need high-level resources to evolve their beast taming abilities.

Therefore, the fourth senior brother, Rongtu Wang, really considered Zhou Heng's situation very thoroughly this time.

Zhou Heng was extremely grateful to him: "Senior brother has gone to such lengths for me, I really don't know how to thank you enough."

Fourth Senior Brother Rong Tu Wang spoke sincerely, full of goodwill: "We are fellow disciples, there's no need for such formalities. You have unlimited potential and are destined to reach the pinnacle of the universe. If you really want to thank me, just take good care of the Zhang family of the Heavenly Serpent after you rule the universe."

Zhou Heng replied matter-of-factly, "I also have the bloodline of the Heavenly Serpent Zhang family. Even if my senior brother didn't say anything, I would definitely take care of the Heavenly Serpent Zhang family in the future. Besides, with Master around, no one would dare to touch my senior brother's Heavenly Serpent Zhang family."

Fourth Senior Brother Rongtu Wang didn't say much, but took out a roll of map: "Anyway, it's all settled then. The Tianwei Secret Realm will be open from October 5th to October 15th. During this period, any new student can enter the Tianwei Secret Realm to participate in the treasure hunt competition. Just pick a day and go in, and according to this map, take out what I prepared for you."

Zhou Heng took the map: "Don't worry, senior brother, I'll go another day."

……

The next day, Zhou Heng summoned Li Lang.

Li Lang asked curiously, "Didn't you say you weren't going to participate in the Sky Victory Treasure Hunt Competition?"

Zhou Heng bluntly stated, "Times have changed. My senior brother has prepared a bunch of treasures for me in the Tianwei Secret Realm, and I have to go and retrieve them."

Li Lang was taken aback: "I didn't expect even a freshman welcome event to have such a hidden agenda!"

Zhou Heng shook his head: "You can't put it so harshly. This is just making reasonable use of the rules."

Li Lang's mind grew even more suspicious: "Just how many good things did your senior brother prepare for you? Why didn't he just give them to you directly, but instead handed them to you in this way?"

Zhou Heng explained, "The resources my senior brother prepared for me are all public property of Hanyue University, taken from Hanyue University's inventory. If they were given to me directly, people would inevitably accuse him of abusing his power for personal gain. But if they are delivered to me in a reasonable and compliant manner, no one will dare to say anything."
