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

Zhou Heng said to Feng Zhong and Feng Yong, "Elder Zhong, Elder Yong, from now on you two will be stationed at the garrison headquarters to handle relevant matters as needed."

Feng Zhong and Feng Yong replied in unison, "Yes, sir."

Zhou Heng then said to Jian Xu, "Jian Xu, from now on you will continue to stay by my side and convey my orders at any time."

Jian Xu replied loudly, "Yes, sir."

Zhou Heng glanced around: "Does anyone have anything to add?"

Everyone lowered their heads and said, "We will follow the garrison commander's orders."

Zhou Heng announced loudly, "This concludes today's high-level meeting. Meeting adjourned."

Everyone rose and bowed, saying, "Respectfully seeing off the garrison commander."

Zhou Heng, accompanied by six tamed beasts, vanished from the spot in an instant.

Marquis Tianyin, Marquis Qianren, and Jianxu quickly followed.

Feng Zhong and Feng Yong remained at the garrison headquarters.

Inside the Heavenly Fortress.

Zhou Heng returned to the breeding base and sat on the throne covered with a seventh-tier animal hide carpet.

The Returning Void Divine Dragon flew up from Zhou Heng's wrist: "When the heads of various government departments were reporting just now, Father listened very carefully. It seems that Father is really preparing to do something in this position of guarding the town."

Zhou Heng leaned back and nodded slightly: "Fei Hong understands me best."

San Shou Qingfeng was full of admiration for Zhou Heng: "Even if Dad doesn't do anything, it's not a big deal. Anyway, Dad is just here for an internship and will probably leave next year."

Zhou Heng shook his head and said, "This is not my style. Although I came to Crimson Armor Star to serve as a garrison commander, it is only for an internship, but it is also a training opportunity for me. I used to only know how to grow stronger with you, and I have never dealt with complicated government affairs. I am completely ignorant of many trivial matters. In the future, I will not only lead the Divine Dragon Zhou Family and the Golden Crow Li Family to the peak, but also take on the heavy responsibility of the alliance. Although strength is the most important thing in this world, I also need to have some knowledge of other abilities, so as not to be deceived without realizing it."

The Devouring Star Kunpeng exclaimed, "Father is truly responsible!"

Zhou Heng replied with an air of self-righteousness, "I'm the junior leader of the alliance, and I'm truly going to take over my master's position in the future. How can I not be responsible?"

The six beast tamers had absolutely no doubt about these words.

Although Xuan Chen Supreme has two living disciples, only Zhou Heng is called the Junior Alliance Leader. The fourth senior brother, Rong Tu Wang, does not have the title of Junior Alliance Leader, which proves that Xuan Chen Supreme has already chosen a successor.

The Titan Grand Prince couldn't help but say, "ASEAN is like a ranch, and Dad is like a shareholder of the ranch. It's normal for him to care about the development of the ranch."

Zhou Heng's eyebrows suddenly rose: "Pasture? That's an interesting description. The Alliance's official government is not fundamentally different from the ancient courts of seven or eight thousand years ago. Ancient courts had the saying of 'acting as the people's shepherd on behalf of Heaven,' which coincides with your understanding. Emperor God, I never realized you were so insightful before."

The Titan Lord always flattered Zhou Heng in a subtle and gentle way: "Thank you for the compliment, Father. It's mainly because I've been following you for over eight years. Being around you for so long has naturally taught me a lot. Moreover, I have a bloodline that allows me to easily draw inferences from one instance to another."

Zhou Heng turned his head and gave the Titan Lord a deep look, a smile playing on his lips.

……

A few days later, Zhou Heng sent Jian Xu to summon Deputy Garrison Commander Liu and Deputy Garrison Commander Bai to the Tiangong Space cultivation base.

He had a separate office built for him within the cultivation base to handle affairs on Red Armor Star.

Zhou Heng sat in his chair, looking at the two people standing opposite him: "I've heard that, according to custom, the garrison commanders of third-level planets must fight a battle with the chieftain of the local vassal race after taking office. Is that true?"

Deputy Garrison Commander Liu said respectfully, "On ordinary level-three planets, this is indeed the case. For example, the previous Garrison Commander Cao did just that. He fought a great battle with the Crimson Armor City Lord as soon as he took office, and the two sides were evenly matched. However, you are different."

Zhou Heng raised his eyes: "What makes me different?"

Deputy Garrison Commander Bai quickly explained, "The reason why a garrison commander of a typical third-tier planet would engage in a sparring match with the leader of a fourth-tier race while still holding the rank of a sixth-tier Beastmaster is primarily to warn these vassal races, making them recognize their own status and reminding them that even if they advance to the seventh tier, they are still only equivalent to a sixth-tier Beastmaster Commander, thus ensuring they always respect the human Beastmasters of our alliance. But you are different. You are the minor leader of the alliance, representing the supreme authority of the alliance. The Crimson Armor City Lord would never dare to have any disloyalty, so there is no need to establish hierarchy in this way."

Zhou Heng had his own plans: "Although I am the minor leader of the alliance, I am now also the guardian of Crimson Armor Star. It is said that the combat power of vassal races is far inferior to that of human beast tamers. I want to verify this myself. You can make the arrangements! Find a time for the Crimson Armor City Lord to spar with me."

Upon hearing this, Deputy Garrison Commander Liu and Deputy Garrison Commander Bai had no reason to refuse and could only reply, "Yes, sir."

The following day, far away from Crimson Armor Star, Zhou Heng stood in the void, while the remaining high-ranking officials of Crimson Armor Star all stood on the heads of the Snow Mountain Demon Ape, the main beast guarded by Deputy Commander Liu.

The Snow Mountain Demon Ape is a peak fifth-tier beast, standing up to be three thousand meters tall, with its head measuring several hundred meters in size.

Zhou Heng gazed at the Crimson Armor Clan Chief not far away, his expression gentle yet authoritative: "City Lord, are you ready?"

The Red Armor Clan Chief bowed respectfully: "Reporting back to the Garrison Commander, your subordinate is ready."

Zhou Heng glanced at the six shrunken beasts beside him: "I have six beasts. If I were to send out the Star-Devouring Kunpeng, a high-level mythical beast, even though you are only at the seventh rank, you definitely wouldn't be able to withstand a single blow. Why don't you let the Fortune Qilin King, the lowest-ranking of my six beasts, have a match with you?"

The Crimson Armor Clan Chief tried to back down gracefully: "Thank you for your mercy, Lord Garrison Commander! Your strength is formidable, and the beasts around you are either of Hegemon or Mythical quality. Even a true seventh-tier noble beast tamer would have to admit defeat before you. My seventh-tier status is merely a facade; I have no real seventh-tier combat power. Therefore, I am absolutely no match for you, and I willingly concede defeat."

Zhou Heng immediately stopped him, saying, "We haven't even fought yet, how can you admit defeat? I said I would only send the lowest-level beast to compete with you. The Fortune Qilin King is only at the fifth rank, eighth level, while you are already at the seventh rank. Even if you are limited by your race and don't have the combat power of the seventh rank, you must have the combat power of the sixth rank, right? You can't just admit defeat so easily. You must go all out and let me take a good look at just how strong your combat power has become."

"Since the garrison commander has said so, then I can only make a fool of myself." The Crimson Armor Clan Chief stepped into the void and assumed a fighting stance.

He had already made up his mind to make a couple of moves as a formality, and then simply admit defeat. This way, he could please Zhou Heng and save face for himself.
