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

Looking at the soon-to-bloom Yuan Yan Life-Generating Divine Flower, Patriarch Zhou sighed, "When Heng'er received this tenth-tier Qianling Yuan Yan Life-Generating Divine Flower from the Supreme Alliance Leader, it wasn't mature yet. It was thanks to Heng'er and the clansmen working together to collect enough Tears of Sincerity that the flower matured; otherwise, it would have taken even longer."

Madam Zhou smiled gently: "Some things can't be rushed. Using the Yuan Yan Life Body Nurturing Divine Flower to conceive offspring is already much faster than ten months of pregnancy."

Mr. Zhou put his arm around Zhou Heng's shoulder: "Heng'er, you're finally going to be a father! Aren't you excited?"

Zhou Heng nodded: "A little."

Mr. Zhou recalled the situation more than 20 years ago: "Haha! It's normal to be excited. I was also very excited when you were born."

The eldest uncle said from the side, "Heng'er's son is also very lucky. He was born on this day. The Lantern Festival is a day for family reunion. It is said that people born on this day will be very lucky throughout their lives."

Zhou Heng pressed further, "Really?"

Fourth Uncle nodded and smiled: "There is such a saying. It is said that people born on the 30th of the lunar year are destined for wealth and honor, people born on the first day of the lunar year are born with good fortune, people born on the Lantern Festival will naturally have a fulfilling and happy life, and women born on the Qixi Festival are skillful and clever, while men are talented in literature... There are just too many such legends."

Zhou Heng dismissed it: "These are sayings from seven or eight thousand years ago, and they're not popular anymore. Besides, there are plenty of people born on these days every year, so there's nothing particularly special about them."

Zhou's mother explained, "These sayings may not be true, but at least they bring good luck."

As everyone spoke, the tenth-tier Qianling Yuanyan Life-Generating Divine Flower had gradually opened several petals.

After a while, under everyone's eager gaze, all ten petals bloomed.

Then, the original body of the Yuan Yanming Body Nurturing Divine Flower gradually disappeared, leaving only a chubby little baby in the same place.

Without the protection of the Yuan Yanming Body Nurturing Divine Flower, the baby cried loudly. Zhou's mother reacted quickly and immediately took out a set of golden swaddling clothes from her storage watch and wrapped the baby in them.

Mr. Zhou quickly joined in, and the old patriarch of the Zhou family, Mrs. Zhou, and several uncles also joined in.

Zhou Heng stood there, momentarily stunned.

Finally, he joined the crowd and looked at the rosy cheeks of the baby who was his blood relative, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

Zhou's mother handed the swaddled baby to Zhou Heng: "Heng'er, quickly hold your son!"

Zhou Heng awkwardly took the golden swaddling clothes from his mother's hands, and held the baby in his arms and rocked it twice, mimicking the way he remembered taking care of an infant.

Seeing this, Zhou's mother quickly took the baby back: "You child, you really have no experience taking care of babies. Don't shake the baby until he gets dizzy."

Old Madam Zhou reminded Mr. and Mrs. Zhou, "It was agreed that you would raise this child after he was born, and Heng'er doesn't need to worry about it. Heng'er has a bright future ahead of him. In addition to improving his Beast Tamer level, he also needs to improve his Breeder level. Don't trouble Heng'er with such trivial matters as taking care of a child."

Mr. Zhou patted his chest and declared confidently, "That's for sure. This child is our own grandson, so naturally we will raise him."

The old patriarch of the Zhou family reached out and touched the baby's face: "This child looks just like Heng'er when he was little."

Zhou Heng casually remarked, "Most babies look pretty much the same; how can you tell them apart?"

Madam Zhou said to Zhou Heng, "Ordinary people can't tell the difference, but as a beast tamer with strong mental power, you can definitely tell the difference. I also think this child looks a lot like you when you were a child."

Zhou's mother's eyes were filled with tenderness: "This child does look a lot like Heng'er when he was little. After all, he was conceived with Heng'er's blood and essence, so it's normal for him to look like Heng'er."

Yu Ming, Zhou Heng's cousin, sidled up to him: "Cousin, congratulations! You've been blessed with a son!"

Zhou Heng responded with a smile.

Congratulations, cousin!

Congratulations, cousin!

With Yu Ming taking the lead, many of Zhou Heng's cousins ​​and siblings offered their congratulations.

Congratulations, Uncle!

Congratulations, Grand Uncle!

"Congratulations……"

Zhou Heng's cousins ​​Zhou Honglie and Zhou Hongyu, along with his grandson Zhou Yongchuan and other younger relatives, filed forward to congratulate him.

Zhou Heng nodded with a smile as well.

As the current head of the family, Fourth Uncle reminded him, "Heng'er, have you thought of a name for this child beforehand? We're going to take the child to the ancestral hall to be added to the family genealogy later, so he needs a name."

Zhou Heng was prepared: "I've thought it through. Since this child belongs to the 'Hong' generation, let's take the character 'Zheng' from him and call him Hongzheng from now on!"

Tenth Uncle exclaimed in admiration of the name: "An ancient book says, 'If one's conduct is upright, one's orders will be followed without being given.' This means that as long as a person in a position of authority is of high moral character and behaves uprightly, they will serve as a role model for those in lower positions. Even without issuing orders, those in lower positions will strive to emulate them and carry out their will. This child's talent should be quite remarkable. He is destined to become a high-level beast tamer, an important figure in the family, and perhaps even a leader. The word 'upright' is indeed extremely fitting."

The old patriarch of the Zhou family nodded repeatedly: "This character is indeed very good. It is grand, profound, and meaningful. It is very much in line with the naming conventions of our aristocratic families."

Madam Zhou echoed, "Just like the character 'Heng' in Heng'er's name, it represents the everlasting glory of the Zhou family of the Divine Dragon."

Zhou Heng listened to these words of praise, but smiled without saying a word.

Then, Zhou's father took out a transparent six-sided pillar and placed it on the forehead of Zhou Heng's son, Zhou Hongzheng. The six-sided pillar immediately emitted a nine-colored light.

This six-sided pillar is a magical artifact used to test whether a person has the talent to control beasts.

Newborn babies have not yet fully awakened their beast-taming talent, so the level of their talent is not visible, but it is already certain whether they possess beast-taming talent.

The six-sided pillars shone, proving that Zhou Heng's son indeed possessed the talent to control beasts.

Mother Zhou gave Father Zhou a reproachful look: "A fetus conceived using the Yuan Yan Life-Generating Divine Flower will absolutely possess the talent for beast taming, without exception. Why did you go to all this trouble?"

Mr. Zhou smiled憨厚ly: "Of course I know there are no exceptions, but this is a tradition in our Zhou family. We have to come here once after every newborn is born."

The old patriarch of the Zhou family said to everyone, "Let's go! We'll go see the ancestor first, then go to the ancestral hall to add this child to the family genealogy."

Everyone nodded, and Zhou Heng directly shared the skills of the Devouring Star Kunpeng, bringing everyone to the Wanbao Hall.

Zhou's mother handed Zhou Heng's son, Zhou Hongzheng, to Ancestor Wanbao: "Ancestor, this is Heng'er's son. He was finally born today, and Heng'er named him Hongzheng."
