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

"Liu Yao, Tang Tianci, you two get ready!"

Zhang Peng specifically reminded everyone: "The Green Maple Secret Realm will open next Tuesday and will last for fifteen days."

Liu Yao and Tang Tianci exchanged a glance and both said, "Okay, teacher, we understand."

"As for the remaining students, the principal wants to take this opportunity to lead the advanced class and the intensive class on a camping trip."

Zhang Peng then announced another arrangement from the school: "The Green Maple Secret Realm is located on Green Maple Satellite, which is a natural satellite of our Xuanxiao Star. The scenery there is quite nice, and there are many extraordinary creatures below the fourth rank. In particular, the Green Maple Valley area near the Secret Realm Gate has been specially cleared by the Education Bureau. Even the third-rank extraordinary creatures can't be seen there. It is a relatively safe area, which is a good place for camping and picnicking. You can also make some preparations in advance, such as preparing some food and drinks, as well as various camping equipment."

Tang Tianci's face fell: "Teacher, we are to undergo training and fight against extraordinary creatures in the secret realm, but other students can camp and cook. This seems a bit unfair."

Zhang Peng said in a cold tone, "If you feel it's unfair, you can give up your spot to enter the Green Maple Secret Realm."

Tang Tianci gave an embarrassed smile: "No need, no need, let the students have fun!"

"Camping and picnicking are not just about having fun. On one hand, it's about getting used to the outdoors in advance, and on the other hand, it's about broadening your horizons. After all, reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles."

Zhang Peng explained again: "In short, the principal's arrangement must have its reasons. And this isn't just happening at our school; other schools are doing the same thing. It's all a unified arrangement by the Education Bureau."

Zhou Heng said, "Teacher, you don't need to explain so much, we understand."

Zhang Peng was very pleased: "Zhou Heng, you are the most sensible. No wonder Teacher Xu, Teacher Chen, and the principal all speak highly of you."

Zhou Heng smiled broadly: "Thank you all for your high regard. I also admire you all very much."

……

After school at noon, Zhou Heng asked his tutor to buy him two lunches and deliver them to his villa, where he and Li Lang ate together.

Li Lang suddenly asked, "Do you think Pang Jie and his team will go to the Green Maple Secret Realm this time?"

Zhou Heng casually replied, "Why don't we just ask?"

Li Lang immediately picked up the communicator and entered a small group chat called the "Tianjiao Squad".

Li Lang: "Does anyone want to go to the Green Maple Secret Realm?"

Wang Xuchen: "I don't want to go~"

Li Lang: "Aren't you the top student in the first year of high school at No. 7 Middle School? Why aren't you going?"

Wang Xuchen: "They just don't want to go! Why do they have to go to that secret realm?"

Shi Jingqi: "I'm not going either."

Li Lang: "Pang Jie, are you going or not?"

Pang Jie: "I want to go. I heard that this time every student entering the secret realm will be given a life-saving bracelet. If they encounter fatal danger, they will be teleported out of the secret realm. It's very safe."

Li Lang: "The Beast Tamer is safe, but what about the Beast Tamers? I heard that there are many extraordinary creatures forming groups in the secret realm. If we get surrounded, we'll be in big trouble."

Pang Jie: "Just put the beast back into the beast taming space, and then activate the life-saving bracelet."

Li Lang: "Anyway, I still don't want to go."

Pang Jie: "Zhou Heng, are you going or not?"

Zhou Heng: "I'm not going either."

Pang Jie: "It seems I'll be going alone this time. I was hoping to team up with you guys."

Zhou Heng: "You can team up with the strongest students in your school's second year of high school."

Pang Jie: "Our teacher has already made arrangements for us."

Zhou Heng: "This way, you'll have more security."

Shi Jingqi: "Students in our school's elite and advanced classes who don't enter the Green Maple Secret Realm are going camping in the Green Maple Valley area. What are the arrangements for students in your school who don't enter the Green Maple Secret Realm? I heard it's all the same."

Zhou Heng: "That's right, it's all the same, we do it too."

Wang Xuchen: "Great! Then we can all play together again."

Pang Jie: "It's a pity I can't be with you guys."

Zhou Heng: "It's okay, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

The five chatted for a while longer before Zhou Heng and Li Lang put away their communicators.

During the next two days at school, Zhou Heng noticed that Liu Yao and Tang Tianci had become much closer.

Perhaps it was because they were going to enter the Green Maple Secret Realm together this time that the two of them were paired up again.

Soon, it was Thursday afternoon.

Zhou's father rode the Yao Ye Peacock to the school again and picked up Zhou Heng.

After returning home, Zhou Heng had a sumptuous dinner with his parents.

He picked up a glass of juice with a straw: "Mom and Dad, do you know about Green Maple Secret Realm?"

Mr. Zhou looked up: "I know, what's wrong?"

Zhou Heng sat down next to his father: "The Green Maple Secret Realm will open next week."

Mr. Zhou reminded him, "My dear son, your level is too high; you can't get in."

Zhou Heng then said, "I know I can't go in, and I didn't intend to go in, but we students who aren't going into the Green Maple Secret Realm are also going to the wilderness for camping, and the location happens to be near the Green Maple Valley where the Green Maple Secret Realm is located."

Without a second thought, Mr. Zhou said directly, "Although Green Maple Secret Realm is a small secret realm, it is located outside of Xuanxiao Star. Every year, only the most talented students from Xuanxiao City enter Green Maple Secret Realm. Our Education Department will send people to oversee it. This time, it was originally the turn of the Academic Director and another Deputy Academic Director, but since you are going to camp there, my colleague and I can switch shifts."

Zhou Heng quickly shook his head: "Dad, you don't need to specially change my shift. I'm not going into the Green Maple Secret Realm. I'll be protected by Elder Zhong and Elder Yong outside, so there won't be any danger."

Mr. Zhou said seriously, "No, I'd better switch shifts! Anyway, this is just a small matter."

Zhou's mother chimed in, "Yes, my dear son. Although you have Elder Zhong and Elder Yong protecting you, we still need to send your father there so we can feel at ease. After all, there are too many variables in the wild, and the communicator can only be used between planets. It can't be used across planets, and the signal will be affected if it's used in the wild too far from the city. If you encounter any danger, it will be too late for us to rush over from Xuanxiao Star."

Zhou Heng then raised the question that had been on his mind: "Mom and Dad, I've always been curious. More than six thousand years ago, ordinary humans' cell phone signals could cover the entire planet Earth. Now that humanity has entered the interstellar age and has developed for another six thousand years, although there haven't been any groundbreaking technological advancements, with the extraordinary abilities of Beast Tamers, is it really impossible for those high-level Beast Tamers to make communication signals cover the entire Eastern Union Star Region again?"

Zhou's father's eyes were deep and unfathomable: "The reason for this is very special. On the surface, it's because devices placed in the cosmos to transmit signals are easily destroyed by atmospheric creatures, cosmic behemoths, and the ten evil races that descend from beyond the realm."
