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

"Zhou Heng, Cao Wei, Zhao Qifei..."

The principal's voice echoed across the entire playground: "Students whose names are called, please come forward to test your beast-taming talent!"

Hearing the voices from the stage, Zhou Heng immediately stepped forward and followed the students whose names were called onto the stage.

The principal of No. 3 Middle School said with a kind expression: "Dear students, don't be nervous. Just place your hands on this Spirit Verification Tablet to fully activate your Beast Taming Talent and reveal its specific level."

Zhou Heng and the others immediately did as instructed, placing their hands on a nine-meter-tall black stone tablet.

Swish!

A purple light rose from the top of Zhou Heng's head, shining brightly in the sky and forming a pillar of light that shot into the heavens, eliciting gasps of surprise.

The other people who were testing their talent levels with Zhou Heng were completely overwhelmed by the purple light and couldn't even lift their heads.

The audience erupted in cheers upon seeing this.

"S-rank talent!"

"Oh my God!"

"This year, No. 3 Middle School finally has an S-level talent!"

"Although our Xuanxiao Star is one of the thirty-six first-level planets of the Eastern Star Region Beast Taming Alliance, and Xuanxiao City is the gathering place of humans on Xuanxiao Star, not every top-tier high school can produce an S-level talent every year!"

"No. 1 High School hadn't produced an S-level talent for four consecutive years, and was almost relegated to a second-rate school. Last year, they finally produced an S-level talent, and they treasured it like the plague."

"Stop talking about it. Our school didn't produce any S-level talents last year either. The resources allocated from above were affected, the principal and teachers' salaries decreased, and the number of students dropped. This year, at least, we've made up for it!"

"S-rank talent, truly enviable..."

Hearing the chatter of his classmates below, Zhou Heng felt a surge of joy and relief.

Six thousand years ago, a cosmic energy surge erupted, causing a cataclysmic change in the world and a resurgence of spiritual energy. Countless extraterrestrial beings descended upon the blue planet, leaving humanity helpless.

Fortunately, the emergence of Beast Tamers brought a new dawn to human civilization.

From then on, humans relied on the power of beast tamers to build one huge and magnificent safe fortress after another.

By the time we reached the 86th century AD, humanity had long since stabilized the battle lines.

Moreover, humanity not only reclaimed its former home, but also ventured beyond the blue planet and into the vast universe.

Although Earth is now known as our ancestral planet, it is no longer the only habitable planet for humans; it is just one of many planets that humans have mastered.

As for Xuanxiao Star, where Zhou Heng is located, it is a habitable planet that was incorporated into the ASEAN territory 4,800 years ago.

There are many other planets similar to Xuanxiao Star in the interstellar era.

It can be said that human civilization has flourished and shone brightly.

All of this is thanks to the efforts of generations of beast tamers!

The most crucial thing for a beast tamer is their talent level!

In this world, the talents of beast tamers are divided into nine levels.

From highest to lowest, they are: SSS, SS, S, A, B, C, D, E, F.

Depending on the individual's talent, the color displayed on the spirit-testing tablet will vary.

The colors are: gold, silver, purple, blue, cyan, green, yellow, orange, and red.

SSS-level talent, more than 6,000 years have passed, and only twelve have appeared in the history of ASEAN, averaging one every few hundred years.

Although high-level beast tamers have long lifespans, there may only be two or three SSS-level talents currently in existence.

The last SSS-level talent appeared 150 years ago. Now, that beast tamer has become an eighth-tier monarch beast tamer and a member of the Eastern Alliance Elder Council.

SS-level talents are extremely rare. Every time one appears, the entire alliance will be notified. Their numbers are also very small, usually only one every few decades.

Although S-level talents are not as powerful as the previous two, they are almost the ceiling among their peers, and their status is also very high.

With sufficient resources, becoming a sixth-tier commander beast tamer in the future is not a problem at all. In the entire East Asia, he would be considered a mid-to-high-level figure, ranking above the trillions of humans in the East Asia.

If you're lucky enough to become a seventh-tier feudal lord beast tamer, that would be awesome!

Because a seventh-tier feudal lord beast tamer can allow a seventh-tier beast tamer to open up a small, independent blessed land, and be called a feudal lord.

They can also serve as the garrison commander or deputy garrison commander of a first-level planet, controlling multiple second-level, third-level, and insignificant planets in the surrounding area, wielding immense power.

As for A-level talents, B-level talents are also quite good. Most of them can become fifth-tier warrior beast tamers in their lifetime, which is considered a superior person.

C-level and D-level talents aren't that great, but as long as you're smart, you can still live quite comfortably.

E-level and F-level talents are only slightly better than ordinary people with no talent at all.

As a child, Zhou Heng awakened his innate wisdom from his past life, which made him more intelligent than his peers.

Therefore, he understands even better what the consequences will be if one's talent for beast taming is too low in this world where strength reigns supreme.

He didn't want to disappoint his parents, and he didn't want others to look down on him...

Fortunately, by the grace of God, he has S-level talent!

From then on, his path of beast taming would be incredibly smooth.

The principal of No. 3 Middle School was an elderly man with gray hair. He smiled broadly and said, "Zhou Heng, congratulations!"

Zhou Heng nodded: "Thank you, Principal."

The principal of No. 3 Middle School looked at Zhou Heng as if he were a shining piece of gold: "As a genius student with S-level talent, the school will award you a scholarship of one million yuan, which will be deposited into your account shortly."

Zhou Heng politely replied, "Thank you for the school's nurturing."

The principal of No. 3 Middle School asked expectantly, "Zhou Heng, what exactly is your talent?"

Zhou Heng didn't hide anything and truthfully replied, "My talent is the Miracle Guardian of the Night God!"

The principal of No. 3 Middle School was quite excited: "The Miracle Guardian of the Night God? You're incredibly lucky! This is the strongest concept-type talent among S-rank talents!"

A bright smile appeared on Zhou Heng's handsome face.

At that moment, he became the focus of the entire audience.

The audience below the stage was even more shocked after hearing about Zhou Heng's specific talents, and they all started discussing it animatedly.

"I've heard that each time Night God's Miracle Protection is cast, it grants the tamed beast absolute damage immunity for sixty seconds, regardless of level. During this time, the beast's speed doubles, and it recovers half of its injuries and half of its energy consumption. Moreover, the duration is doubled at night! The cooldown is twenty-four hours, but there is no limit to the number of tamed beasts."

"This must be a top-tier S-rank talent! It's comparable to some slightly weaker SS-rank talents."

"If used correctly, it can completely turn the tide of battle and reverse the tide of war!"

"Indeed! Coupled with the inherent characteristics of an S-rank talent, such as the boost to the growth speed of beast tamers, Zhou Heng's future achievements are likely limitless..."

"Aww!"

The sky suddenly darkened, and a powerful pressure swept over us.

As everyone looked up, they saw a colossal lion with wings on its back, fiery red body, and a length of six thousand meters, as large as a mountain, soaring through the air.

This is the Crimson Flame Lion King, a sixth-tier peak, high-grade diamond quality beast.
