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

Zhou Heng nodded: "That's right. Let alone mid-level diamond-quality beast tamers, even high-level diamond-quality beast tamers will be stuck for a long time, or even for a lifetime, when facing the bottleneck between the peak of the fifth rank and the early stage of the sixth rank. After all, diamond-quality beast tamers need to grow to the ultimate form at least to reach the sixth rank."

Li Lang nodded in agreement: "Indeed, there are countless tamed beasts in the world, but not every tamed beast can surpass the maturity stage and become an ultimate form."

For a Diamond Beast to reach its ultimate form, it must first be of superior diamond quality to have any hope, and even then, success is not guaranteed.

Mid-grade and low-grade diamonds are generally unable to reach the ultimate form, and therefore cannot break through to the sixth rank.

Even if a high-ranking diamond-level beast has the potential to advance to the sixth rank, it still takes time to overcome the bottleneck in order to advance to the sixth rank.

Although theoretically, given enough time, even high-grade diamond-quality beasts can transform into ultimate forms and advance to the sixth rank.

However, beast tamers have long lifespans, while beast tamers have relatively short lifespans. Most fifth-tier warrior beast tamers, even if they have contracted a high-grade diamond-quality beast, will not live to see the beast become an ultimate form and advance to the sixth tier.

Not to mention the Purple Lightning Thunder Dragon, which is of mid-grade diamond quality, it hasn't even reached the threshold of growing into an ultimate form.

Zhou Heng pondered for a moment: "However, if the Purple Lightning Thunder Dragon evolves again and reaches the quality of a high-level diamond, it still has a great chance of advancing to the sixth rank. If Liu Yao's father really becomes a sixth-rank commander beast tamer, he can practically walk sideways in Xuanxiao City, and their family's business can expand again."

Li Lang shook his head repeatedly: "Liu Yao's father was already incredibly lucky to evolve the Purple Lightning Python into the Purple Lightning Dragon. I don't believe his father can have such good fortune again and again."

Zhou Heng remained calm: "Actually, we don't need to worry about these things. Even if Liu Yao's father really becomes a sixth-tier commander beast tamer, it won't affect us."

Li Lang grinned: "That's true. Although a sixth-tier commander-level beast tamer is powerful, how can he compare to your ancestor? That was a lofty eighth-tier monarch-level beast tamer. There are only about thirty of them in the entire Eastern Alliance. Liu Yao's father hasn't even been promoted yet. Even if he were, he would always be a nobody in your ancestor's eyes."

Zhou Heng gently patted Li Lang's arm: "Don't say that, it's not good if someone hears it. Besides, although a sixth-tier commander beast tamer is far from being a match for an eighth-tier monarch beast tamer, he still has a pretty high status in the alliance."

Li Lang didn't take it seriously: "What can't be said? Liu Yao is obviously up to no good with us. He's always acting sly and giving us attitude. I don't know how jealous he is of you! I've disliked him for a long time."

Zhou Heng took out a drink from his storage watch: "Anyway, we're not going to hang out with him. What he does is none of our business, as long as he doesn't bother us."

Li Lang suggested in a low voice, "I think we should find an opportunity to teach him a lesson, just like we did with Tang Tianci last time."

Zhou Heng shook his head: "He's different from Tang Tianci. Tang Tianci used to say all sorts of sarcastic things to me all the time, deliberately trying to provoke me. He really deserved to be taught a lesson! Although Liu Yao isn't one of us, he still knows his limits in front of us. There's no need to openly target him. Anyway, there are many paths in the world, so let's just go our separate ways."

Li Lang couldn't help but exclaim, "Aheng, you are just too kind."

Zhou Heng inserted the straw into the cup: "I'm not kind, I just don't like trouble. If he really loses his mind and dares to provoke us, I will show no mercy."

Li Lang nodded emphatically: "Okay, I'll do whatever you say."

……

During Tuesday's practical lesson, Zhang Peng checked everyone's progress once again.

Liu Yao's Thunderflame Flood Dragon has advanced to level seventeen, or rather, recovered to level seventeen.

Li Lang's Frost Bear King has reached level 15.

Tang Tianci's Purple-Eyed Fire Fox successfully broke through to level thirteen.

Chen Hui's Azure Demon Tiger is still at level eleven.

Gao Wenwu's Black Fiend Wolf reached level thirteen.

He Hongmei's Stone Ox leveled up, reaching level ten.

Finally, when Zhou Heng summoned the Phoenix Azure Phoenix, the Silver Dragon Overturning the Sea, and the Eternal Night Demon Dragon, he once again shocked the entire audience.

Chen Hui's eyes widened in disbelief: "Young Master Zhou, the speed at which your beasts are advancing is incredible! The Overturning Sea Silver Dragon has reached level 26, and the Eternal Night Demon Dragon is almost at level 26 too! And the Phoenix Azure Luan has even reached level 25!"

Zhou Heng said calmly, "Actually, I didn't do anything. When I have nothing to do, I just do some light training with them and build a bond with them through play. The main thing is that my three tamed beasts are particularly good."

Liu Yao was filled with intense jealousy and self-doubt, muttering to himself, "Are beasts of Overlord quality and those showing signs of autonomous evolution really that powerful?"

Zhang Peng smoothly continued, "That's right! The reason a Overlord is an Overlord is because an Overlord-quality Beast Tamer possesses far greater potential than a Diamond-quality Beast Tamer! A Diamond-quality Beast Tamer's Ultimate form is only at the sixth rank, while an Overlord-quality Beast Tamer's Ultimate form can reach the eighth rank! The gap between Diamond and Overlord is much greater than the gap between Gold and Diamond! And this is only in the early stages; the gap becomes even more terrifying as the game progresses!"

He became more and more excited as he spoke: "As for the beasts that have shown signs of autonomous evolution, as I have said before, this is an extremely rare situation that cannot be explained or judged by common sense. Zhou Heng's Phoenix Azure Luan is worlds apart from ordinary Phoenix Azure Luan."

Gao Wenwu sighed deeply: "The gap between us and the deputy squad leader is just too big! I'm afraid we'll never catch up in this lifetime."

Zhang Peng offered a rare moment of comfort to everyone: "Zhou Heng's talent, temperament, and family background are all top-notch. It's normal that ordinary people can't compare to him. Not to mention you, there's no one on the entire Xuanxiao Star who can compare to Zhou Heng's peers. You don't need to be discouraged."

Li Lang chimed in, "The teacher is right. It's not that we're not good enough, it's just that Aheng is too outstanding! In fact, if it weren't for some unexpected events, Aheng wouldn't be studying at our top-tier Beast Taming High School. He should be studying at a top-tier key Beast Taming High School in Yuandu right now."

Tang Tianci had learned his lesson: "Young Master Zhou, you're amazing, I really envy you."

He Hongmei couldn't help but sigh, "Yes! First place in the monthly exam, first place in the midterm exam, the vice class monitor has now become the idol of all the first-year high school students."

Liu Yao felt very uncomfortable listening to everyone's praise and flattery of Zhou Heng.

Both he and Zhou Heng possessed S-level talent, and he should have received half of the applause and flowers, but all his glory was stolen by Zhou Heng.

But he was helpless.

Because no matter how you look at it, Zhou Heng completely outclasses him.

If Zhou Heng didn't have such a good family background, he could have asked his father to do something.

However, Zhou Heng's power far exceeded that of his father, so he dared not provoke Zhou Heng at all and could only suppress all his sinister thoughts in his heart.
