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

Zhou Heng led Gu Yixuan and Li Lang to the rest area of ​​the training base: "Senior Yixuan, what level of blacksmith are you now?"

Gu Yixuan sat down on the sofa: "I am currently only a second-tier top-grade blacksmith, and I am trying to break through to the third-tier low-grade blacksmith."

Zhou Heng picked up a bottle of beverage: "You're about to advance to the third-tier blacksmith so quickly. It seems that Senior Yixuan has a real talent for forging magical artifacts."

Gu Yixuan waved his hand: "What's so fast about it? I'm already a junior in college. It's been more than two years since my freshman year, and I still haven't been able to advance to the third-tier blacksmith level. It's not fast at all."

Instead of using Titan Lord's skill to check Gu Yixuan's main beast's level, Zhou Heng asked, "What level is your Heavenly Fire Demon Scorpion now?"

Gu Yixuan sighed softly, "Still fourth level, fourth rank."

Zhou Heng asked in confusion, "I remember that the Heavenly Fire Demon Flame Scorpion had already advanced to the fourth level of the fourth tier back in March of this year. How come it hasn't broken through yet? Your talent is special, so your beast taming growth rate should be faster than that of ordinary S-level talents."

Gu Yixuan explained, "This is already the result of my talent. If I only had a regular S-rank talent, which only boosted the basic growth speed of my beast taming, I definitely wouldn't have reached the fourth level of the fourth tier. After all, the Flame King is only of high-grade diamond quality. After advancing to the mid-stage of the fourth tier, its speed gradually slowed down. It will be at least until next year before its level can break through."

Zhou Heng could only console him, "This speed is actually not bad."

Gu Yixuan shook his head with a smile, his face full of envy: "In the end, I can't compare to you. I heard from Junior Brother Li Lang that your Star-Devouring Kunpeng broke through again a couple of days ago and has now advanced to the fourth level of the fifth rank. And it's not just the Star-Devouring Kunpeng; the advancement speed of your other tamed beasts is also astonishing. The Rainbow-Winged Azure Phoenix is ​​also at the tenth level of the fourth rank. I remember that the Rainbow-Winged Azure Phoenix was only at the tenth level of the third rank two years ago, but now it has grown to the point of almost advancing to the fifth rank."

Zhou Heng truthfully replied, "Jiuxiao was able to advance to the fourth rank, tenth level so quickly mainly thanks to my master's help."

Li Lang chimed in, deliberately making a fool of himself: "You two, stop comparing yourselves. One of you is a fifth-tier Battle General Beast Tamer, and the other is a fourth-tier Grandmaster Beast Tamer, while I'm just a third-tier Elite Beast Tamer. Who can I complain to?"

Zhou Heng glanced at Li Lang, and various related data appeared: "Why hasn't the Ice Bear King broken through its level? It's still at the third tier, seventh level?"

Li Lang, with a nonchalant air, said, "Back in No. 3 Middle School, Xiao Bing broke through quite quickly, but her foundation wasn't very stable. She needed to consolidate at the seventh level of the third tier for a while before she could advance further. Besides, it's only been four or five months since Xiao Bing's last breakthrough; normally it wouldn't be this fast."

Gu Yixuan said from the side, "It's alright. You're still young. It's good for you to take your time."

Zhou Heng then asked, "What level is your second tamed beast, the Six-Horned Flying Dragon King, now?"

Li Lang replied, "Second Rank, Eighth Level."

Zhou Heng commented, "You only signed the Hexagonal Flying Dragon King during the summer vacation, so this level is considered average."

Li Lang said self-deprecatingly, "Although Big Mouth is a high-grade diamond quality talent, I only have an A-level talent, which actually makes me a bit of a drag on Big Mouth. A-level talent is rare on Xuanxiao Star, but in this Hanyue University, I've suddenly become the lowest level."

Zhou Heng could only say, "Those who can enter Hanyue University are the elite of the elite. Just relax and feed the Six-Horned Flying Dragon King as many resources as it can digest at this stage."

Li Lang nodded: "Okay."

……

A day later, the many fine-scaled golden carp that Zhou Heng had cultivated all advanced to the second level of the first tier and entered the growth stage.

Zhou Heng fed them more food and took out a bottle of third-tier potion.

This potion is entirely pink and has the effect of arousing supernatural beings.

He poured the entire bottle of medicine directly into the pond, and the numerous small-scaled golden carp immediately began to reproduce.

When the fourth senior brother, Rongtu Wang, arrived, he witnessed this scene: "Junior brother, is this the new beast you've raised?"

Zhou Heng smiled and said, "That's right."

Fourth Senior Brother Rongtu Wang stared at Zhou Heng's actions and asked, "Are you trying to make them reproduce?"

Zhou Heng stated his plan: "Yes, I want to see if their extraordinary genes are stable enough. If more than 95% of their offspring are ordinary carp, then it proves that my breeding method still needs improvement."

Fourth Senior Brother Rongtuwang couldn't help but say, "You're too much of a perfectionist."

Zhou Heng truthfully said, "I actually really enjoy the process of cultivating entirely new species; it feels like I'm becoming a creator."

Fourth Senior Brother Rongtu nodded repeatedly: "It is said that interest is the best teacher. If you can genuinely like the profession of nurturer, your future achievements will definitely be high."

Zhou Heng said seriously, "The future is uncertain, I can only make the most of the present."

Fourth Senior Brother Rongtu Wang didn't stay long before leaving: "Alright, I won't bother you anymore. Junior Brother, you can continue with your work! If you need anything, just come find me."

After his fourth senior brother, Rongtu Wang, left, Zhou Heng took out a bunch of potions and poured them into the pond again, mainly to help these fine-scaled golden carp grow quickly.

Soon, many fine-scaled gold carp laid their eggs.

Zhou Heng immediately said, "Divine Emperor, use your words to make them lawful and help me catalyze these eggs into small fish."

"Okay, Dad."

The crown atop the Titan Lord's head emitted a dazzling blue light, and with the power of his words becoming law, in the blink of an eye, the numerous fish eggs in the enormous fishpond turned into small fish.

Most of them are common carp, and only 15 percent are fine-scaled golden carp.

The Titan Lord asked, "Father, how is it? With so many ordinary fish born, is the extraordinary gene of the Fine-Scaled Golden Carp not stable enough?"

Zhou Heng smiled and said, "That's not the case. The extraordinary genes of the Fine-Scaled Golden Carp are very stable. After all, it is only a lower-level bronze extraordinary creature. It is already very good that 15% of its offspring are extraordinary creatures."

The Titan Grand Prince chuckled and said, "It seems Dad's research has been successful. Congratulations, Dad."

Zhou Heng, full of confidence and ambition, said, "This is just the first step. I will further develop this evolutionary path to a higher quality, at least to diamond quality or even overlord quality, only then will it be valuable. Because low-level evolutionary paths are of no use to aristocratic families."

A silver dragon, its body undulating across the sea, offered its blessing: "Hard work pays off; I believe my father will succeed."

Not to be outdone, Caiyi Qingfeng added, "Dad will not only become the most powerful beast tamer in the future, but also the most powerful breeder."
