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

Zhang Peng looked at Gao Wenwu with admiration: "Very good, you've developed your talent very well!"

Gao Wenwu was equally delighted: "Thank you for the compliment, teacher."

His talent is A-level high-speed growth.

The effect is that, in addition to the A-level talent's inherent boost to the beast's growth speed, it also grants the ability to significantly accelerate the beast's growth speed.

It is a very practical talent.

This is especially true for students like Gao Wenwu who have no family connections.

Even without sufficient resources, beast tamers can grow rapidly.

Although his beast-taming combat strength is basically at the bottom among those of the same level, the higher the level, the more choices he has.

Then came Yu Li, Xu Yaya, and Chen Hui.

All three of them have reached level eight in their beast taming.

Their tamed beasts are of gold quality, so their initial level was seven, and they have only increased it by one level.

This speed is normal for an A-level talent, but Zhang Peng was not satisfied with it. However, he did not criticize it directly, but instead gave it some pointers.

Next was Tang Tianci.

His Purple-Eyed Fire Fox had reached level nine, and its size remained unchanged.

As for Li Lang's Frost Giant Bear, after reaching level ten, its size directly increased to fifteen meters.

Zhang Peng praised both of them.

Then it was Liu Yao's turn.

As purple light flashed between Liu Yao's brows, a 22-meter-long Thunderfire Flood Dragon appeared before everyone.

The beasts that Tang Tianci and the others were riding trembled in fear.

Li Lang's Frost Giant Bear was much better, because it had spent a lot of time with Feng Yi Qing Luan, so the Thunder Flame Flood Dragon didn't seem so scary.

Looking at the menacing Thunderflame Dragon, Yu Li exclaimed in surprise, "Level 15!"

Tang Tianci chimed in, "Brother Yao is amazing! He's raised the Thunder Flame Flood Dragon so well!"

Xu Yaya's eyes lit up.

Chen Hui clenched his fists, his eyes filled with resentment.

Gao Wenwu and He Hongmei looked on with envy.

Zhou Heng smiled calmly.

Li Lang curled his lip, dismissing it with disdain.

Liu Yao's father was a veteran fifth-tier warrior beast tamer and the CEO of Yao Ri Group, so Liu Yao naturally had no shortage of resources. Therefore, his Thunderflame Flood Dragon grew quite fast at the second tier.

Zhang Peng glanced at the spirited Liu Yao, then carefully examined the Thunderflame Flood Dragon, nodding repeatedly and saying, "Not bad! Not bad! After reaching the second tier, the growth rate of your Beast Taming skill is much slower than that of the first tier. Most of you are currently stuck at the first tier, but you managed to raise your Beast Taming skill to level fifteen in the second week after the class division. That's not weak even among the second tier! I remember when you were ranked last week, your Thunderflame Flood Dragon was only level twelve. The fact that you've made such a big improvement shows how hard you've worked."

Liu Yao raised his head: "It's all thanks to the teacher's guidance."

Zhang Peng shook his head: "I treat you all the same. Your progress mainly depends on yourself."

Liu Yao became even more smug: "Thank you for the compliment, teacher."

Afterwards, Zhang Peng encouraged Liu Yao a few more times before turning his attention to Zhou Heng, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Both being S-level talents, and having previously defeated Liu Yao, he was eager to know how far Zhou Heng had improved.

Zhang Peng immediately said, "Zhou Heng, summon your Phoenix and Azure Luan!"

Zhou Heng nodded, and a purple glow emanated from between his brows.

"Hey!"

With a clear cry, an eight-meter-tall blue phoenix appeared in the combat training hall, its body radiating a mesmerizing, clear light.

Although the Phoenix Azure Luan is smaller than the Thunder Flame Flood Dragon, its aura is stronger.

After carefully sensing it, everyone was immediately astonished.

Li Lang was the first to clap and cheer: "First place! Our Zhou Heng truly deserves to be number one in the rocket class!"

Liu Yao stared in disbelief, his handsome face contorted in shock: "This...this..."

Yu Li looked utterly incredulous, his green, side-swept bangs fluttering: "Level 18!"

Xu Yaya spoke in a high-pitched voice, her cheekbones puffing out on her dark face, her eyes curving into slits: "Deputy Squad Leader Zhou is amazing!"

Chen Hui closed his eyes dejectedly, a look of resentment on his handsome face.

The tall and thin Gao Wenwu and the short and plump He Hongmei looked on with envy and smiled.

Tang Tianci lowered his head dejectedly.

Both possessing S-rank talents and exhibiting the same quality in beast taming, the resulting precipitous and overwhelming difference in skill has once again shattered everyone's understanding.

"Zhou Heng, you are truly the most outstanding student I have ever taught! Your growth rate in beast taming is not only the best in No. 3 Middle School, but even in the entire Xuanxiao City, you can be considered the best."

Zhang Peng beamed with joy, gesturing wildly: "If you maintain this momentum, you'll definitely be the regional champion of Xuanxiao City, and you might even have a chance to compete for the overall champion of the Eastern Conference!"

Upon hearing this, Li Lang, who was closest to Zhou Heng, almost jumped up on the spot.

Those who had a bad relationship with Zhou Heng were immediately devastated.

Zhou Heng was very modest: "Thank you for the praise, teacher. Actually, my efforts only account for one percent at most. The rest is all thanks to my parents' full support and my teachers' careful cultivation."

Zhang Peng grinned from ear to ear: "While your family background is top-tier among this year's students, it doesn't negate your personal hard work! I know you're modest, but don't be too modest. As the top student in the elite class, you can certainly be a little proud!"

Zhou Heng readily nodded and said, "Thank you for your guidance, teacher. I understand."

Taking the opportunity, Zhang Peng addressed the group, "Everyone should look up to Zhou Heng, understand? It's only the second week since the class division, and Zhou Heng has already raised his beast taming to level eighteen, not far from the university entrance requirement of level twenty-one! You can't fall too far behind!"

Li Lang was the first to express his opinion: "We will definitely learn more from Zhou Heng."

The rest of the people had no choice but to grit their teeth and agree.

Li Lang seized the opportunity to speak: "Teacher, could you tell us about university?"

Seeing that everyone was very interested in this, Zhang Peng said, "There are only ten Beast Taming Universities in our Eastern Alliance. They are Sunrise University, Cold Moon University, Heavenly Star University, Emerald University, Benevolent Saint University, Sword Soul University, Ancient Vine University, Vast Ocean University, Flame Light University, and Glazed Glass University."

Gao Wenwu looked puzzled: "Teacher, are there only these ten universities?"

Zhang Peng nodded: "Yes, because the history of ordinary universities ended with the change of the times after the arrival of the Beast Taming Era six thousand years ago, there are only ten Beast Taming Universities in the entire East Asia today. Only Beast Tamers can be admitted to Beast Taming Universities. Ordinary high school students without Beast Taming talent will end their studies directly after finishing ordinary high school and will not have the opportunity to go to university. They will basically start their professional careers much earlier."

Gao Wenwu couldn't help but worry, "With only ten Beast Taming Universities, the competition must be fierce, right?"
