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

Zhou Heng looked at the Star-Devouring Kunpeng with a gratified expression: "Wuji, you certainly deserve praise. I didn't inject the most spiritual energy into you, but your strength has always been far ahead, leaving Jiuxiao and the others far behind."

The Star-Devouring Kunpeng always maintained a magnanimous and inclusive mindset: "As Father's contracted partners, with Father's dedicated nurturing, they will not be weaker than me in the future."

Zhou Heng patted the Star-Devouring Kunpeng: "But at least for now, you are indeed the strongest."

The Devouring Star Kunpeng felt very comfortable being touched by Zhou Heng. Its pair of bright, round, golden eyes narrowed slightly: "My quality is relatively high, so my strength is relatively strong for the time being. When the quality of Jiuxiao and the others is raised to the same level as mine, they will naturally be able to gradually catch up with me, and may even surpass me."

The three-headed azure phoenix flapped its wings and said, "Wuji, you are far too modest. The Tyrant and I are only upper-level overlords, while Feihong, the Emperor God, and Chengrui are only lower-level myths. It won't be easy for us to catch up with you."

Before the Devouring Star Kunpeng could respond, the Netherworld Demon Dragon scoffed, "Here we go again, all this mutual flattery."

The Three-Headed Azure Phoenix was not one to be trifled with; it immediately retorted, "What? Wuji has advanced to the fifth rank, sixth level, and you're jealous again?"

The Abyss Dragon raised its neck, adopting an unyielding demeanor: "Who's jealous? I'm overjoyed."

The three-headed Azure Phoenix sneered, "With your petty mind, would you be happy to see other tamed beasts advancing faster and stronger than you?"

No matter what the Abyss Dragon thought in its heart, it was unwilling to admit its jealousy: "If it were someone else's beast, I would naturally be unhappy, but you are all Old Deng's contracted partners, just like me. Seeing you become stronger makes me happy. Because your becoming stronger means Old Deng becoming stronger, and Old Deng becoming stronger means me becoming stronger."

Zhou Heng was surprised that the Abyss Dragon had suddenly become so strategic: "Tyrant, after you evolved, not only did your quality improve, but it seems like your intelligence has also increased?"

The Netherworld Demon Dragon understood Zhou Heng's implied meaning and didn't buy it: "Old Deng, stop insulting me here."

Zhou Heng said sincerely, "I'm not insulting you, I'm praising you. You are indeed more sensible than before."

The Abyss Dragon stretched out its claws: "So, what reward do you have for me?"

Zhou Heng raised his hand and flicked the Netherworld Demon Dragon's head with lightning speed: "I'll give you a flick on the forehead as a reward."

Upon seeing this, the Three-Headed Azure Phoenix, the Returning Void Divine Dragon, the Star-Devouring Kunpeng, the Titan Lord, and the Fortune-Bringing Qilin King all burst into laughter.

Even though the Abyss Dragon didn't feel any pain, it still instinctively covered its head with its claws and glared at Zhou Heng with dissatisfaction: "Old Deng, you're so annoying."

Zhou Heng extended his hand again: "Then let me rub it for you."

The Netherworld Demon Dragon quickly dodged to the side: "Why are you rubbing me? It doesn't hurt me."

Zhou Heng raised an eyebrow: "Then what were you pretending for just now?"

The Abyss Dragon leaped and bounded about: "Anyway, you're not allowed to flick my head anymore."

Zhou Heng flicked the head of the Netherworld Demon again with his backhand: "Just flick it, so what?"

"Damn it!" The Netherworld Dragon spread its wings, arched its back, and hissed at Zhou Heng like an overreacting orange cat.

"Haha!" Zhou Heng couldn't help but laugh when he saw its appearance.

"Old Deng, don't laugh!" The Netherworld Demon Dragon, now shrunk to the size of a palm, pounced on Zhou Heng's head, trying to pull his hair.

Zhou Heng quickly reached out and took it down.

The Netherworld Demon Dragon twisted its body and broke free from Zhou Heng's grasp. It then launched another "sneak attack" on Zhou Heng, but Zhou Heng blocked it again.

The two played and joked around for a while.

The Netherworld Demon Dragon only stopped when Marquis Tianyin and Marquis Qianren came before Zhou Heng.

Qianrenhou beamed with joy: "Congratulations, Junior Uncle, you've made even greater progress!"

Zhou Heng remained calm and composed: "It's just a slight improvement."

Marquis Tianyin was adept at flattery, praising, "Junior Uncle's Devouring Star Kunpeng has now reached the sixth level of the fifth rank, the Returning Void Divine Dragon has reached the third level of the fifth rank, the Three-Headed Azure Phoenix and the Netherworld Demon Dragon have reached the second level of the fifth rank, and even the Titan Grand Lord and the Fortune Qilin King, who were contracted later, have reached the tenth level of the fourth rank and the ninth level of the fourth rank, respectively. The key is that Junior Uncle hasn't even entered his second year of university yet, and he has already cultivated six beasts to this level. If Junior Uncle has only made slight progress, the others are probably standing still, or even regressing."

Zhou Heng couldn't help but exclaim, "You two have such silver tongues!"

Marquis Tianyin smiled and said, "Junior Uncle, you flatter me. This is not just us praising you. It's just that your talent is unparalleled and cannot be described in words."

Qianrenhou looked on with admiration: "These past few days, we've been following Junior Uncle around and witnessing firsthand the progress he's made in training his beast tamers. We've been truly amazed, which is why we felt compelled to express our feelings."

Zhou Heng didn't want to talk about these things anymore, so he immediately said, "It just so happens that I'm on my way to the Eternal Order Sacred Realm to see my master, so you can come with me!"

The two junior disciples replied in unison, "Yes."

Zhou Heng directly shared the powerful skill of the Star-Devouring Kunpeng, "Roaming Freely Across the Four Directions," and instantly arrived at the Eternal Order Sacred Realm with six beast tamers and his two junior disciples, Ling.

After being informed, they met the Supreme Emperor Xuan Chen, who was seated on the throne in the palace.

Zhou Heng stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Master. It has been several months since we last met, but you are still as dignified as ever."

Xuan Chen Supreme maintained a kind demeanor in front of Zhou Heng: "Heng'er, sit down quickly! A few months is just a blink of an eye for your master, so naturally nothing will have changed. Let's not talk about such formalities between master and disciple."

Zhou Heng casually found a seat and sat down.

Xuan Chen Supreme glanced at the six shrunken beasts beside Zhou Heng and said, "Your beasts have changed quite a bit."

Zhou Heng smiled and said, "Thanks to Master, Jiuxiao has evolved into a three-headed azure phoenix of superior overlord quality, Tyrant has evolved into a Netherworld Demon Dragon of superior overlord quality, and Feihong has evolved into a Guixu Divine Dragon of lower mythological quality. The quality and level of the three of them have improved, so they are different from before."

Supreme Xuan Chen couldn't help but sigh, "The Three-Headed Azure Phoenix and the Netherworld Demon Dragon are alright; as superior overlord-level beasts, their evolution isn't particularly difficult. But the Returning Void Divine Dragon is different. After all these years, I've finally seen a beast tamer who has contracted the Returning Void Divine Dragon again."

Zhou Heng subtly flattered, "No matter how difficult it is for a beast to evolve into a Guixu Divine Dragon, to put it bluntly, a Guixu Divine Dragon is only of lower-level mythical quality. Your master evolved your main beast into a lower-level chaotic quality Chilu Xuanwu decades ago. Chaotic quality beasts are much harder to evolve than mythical quality beasts. Compared to you, I am still far behind."
