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

After returning to the villa, Zhou Heng's brow shone with purple light as he returned the Phoenix Azure Luan to his beast-taming space.

Li Lang exclaimed excitedly, "Ah Heng, you were so cool just now!"

Zhou Heng remained calm and composed throughout: "I need to tell my parents about this."

Li Lang wholeheartedly agreed: "We definitely need to tell your uncle and aunt."

Zhou Heng took out his communicator and told his parents everything that had happened that day.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhou replied to his messages almost instantly, telling him not to worry and that they would take care of it for him.

Zhou Heng then put away the communicator.

He felt incredibly happy to have a strong support system and his parents to rely on.

Li Lang then said, "Aheng, should we tell the teacher and principal about this?"

Zhou Heng shook his head: "No need. There are so many people watching on the playground. They must know about something this big. Just wait for the result."

Li Lang looked confident: "What else could the outcome be? If you were just a simple S-level talent, the teachers and principal might have chosen to smooth things over and suppress the matter. But you have powerful backers, and Yu Li has run into your hands this time, which is terrible."

……

The next day, Thursday morning, there were two more practical classes, and Zhou Heng and Li Lang arrived at the practical room early.

When it was almost time for class, Liu Yao and the others arrived, except for Yu Li.

Zhou Heng roughly guessed what had happened.

He didn't pay much attention, and after the practical instructor Zhang Peng arrived, today's practical course began.

As a result, halfway through the class, the principal of No. 3 Middle School, Xu Weiran, and Chen Qingshan brought in Yu Li, whose injuries had been healed by the healing-type beast tamer.

Although Yu Li's injuries had healed, his face was deathly pale, with faint tear stains, as if he had been crying earlier.

After exchanging a few words with Zhang Peng, the principal of No. 3 Middle School immediately gave the seat of honor to the principal.

"Dear students of the Rocket Class, I'm here today to discuss something very serious!"

The principal of No. 3 Middle School looked very serious: "The Rocket Class is the strongest class in No. 3 Middle School. The Rocket Class in the first year of high school is the strongest class in the first year. Each of you is a prodigy. You must always stay true to yourselves and not take shortcuts for short-term gains!"

The eight students below reacted differently upon hearing this.

The principal of No. 3 Middle School suddenly shouted coldly, "Yu Li, tell me! What have you done?"

"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!"

Yu Li was extremely embarrassed and kept bowing, saying, "Principal, teachers, and fellow students, I'm so sorry!"

The principal of No. 3 Middle School said with a grim face, "We don't need your apology now. Tell us exactly what you did!"

"...Because training my Golden-feathered Snow Eagle requires a lot of resources, I was momentarily blinded by greed...Last night I returned all the protection money I had forcibly collected...I deeply realize my mistake! Please give me a chance and forgive my error! I will definitely..."

Yu Li had rehearsed these words in his mind countless times. Although he stumbled and hesitated, he didn't forget his lines and spent a few minutes clearly explaining how he extorted money from students in the regular and low-achieving classes.

At the same time, he apologized to everyone with a look of remorse and promised that he would never dare to do such a thing at school again.

Below, Zhou Heng listened expressionlessly.

Li Lang showed a disdainful expression.

Liu Yao found it boring and a waste of his training time.

Tang Tianci had a gloating look on his face.

Xu Yaya and Chen Hui looked distressed.

Gao Wenwu and He Hongmei had solemn expressions.

"Yu Li, according to school rules, accepting protection money on campus and bullying the weak is a offense punishable by expulsion!"

The principal of No. 3 Middle School issued a stern warning: "However, considering that this is your first offense and you have shown a good attitude in admitting your mistake, the school has decided not to expel you for the time being! You will only receive an internal notice, a major demerit, and be placed on probation for three months. At the same time, all your bonuses for the three years of high school will be revoked, including the monthly bonus for ranking in the elite class! If you make any further mistakes during your probation period, you will be expelled from No. 3 Middle School along with your pet!"

"Thank you, Principal! Thank you, Principal!"

Yu Li quickly adopted a repentant attitude: "I will definitely be a good person from now on, and put all my energy into training beasts. I will never dare to have any crooked thoughts again."

Seeing this, the principal of No. 3 Middle School's expression softened slightly: "Call your parents over today; I need to have a serious talk with them!"

Yu Li trembled: "Yes!"

His father was extremely strict with him, and if his father found out about this, he would definitely get a beating.

The principal of No. 3 Middle School waved his hand impatiently: "Go down!"

"Yes! Yes!"

Yu Li quickly tucked his tail between his legs and returned to his seat.

He kept his head down the whole time, looking ashamed to face anyone.

"Today, besides criticizing Yu Li for accepting protection money, I also want to praise a classmate."

The principal of No. 3 Middle School suddenly announced in a loud voice, "Zhou Heng, the school was able to discover Yu Li's violation of school rules and regulations in time thanks to your righteous intervention!"

Zhou Heng remained calm: "Thank you for the praise, Principal. I just don't want some people to use the name of the Rocket Class to seek personal gain, thereby tarnishing the class's reputation and affecting everyone's honor."

The principal of No. 3 Middle School looked at Zhou Heng with a very gentle gaze: "Zhou Heng, don't be modest. Not only are you diligent in training and have excellent grades, but you also have a strong sense of justice, which is a quality that many students do not have. On behalf of the students who have received your help, I thank you."

Afterwards, the principal of No. 3 Middle School praised Zhou Heng a few more times before leaving.

Xu Weiran and Chen Qingshan then praised Zhou Heng and warned Yu Li again.

Zhang Peng didn't say much, and just continued the class.

After the first class ended, everyone looked at Yu Li standing in the corner and subtly distanced themselves from him.

Neither Xu Yaya nor Chen Hui dared to make contact with Yu Li rashly.

Li Lang looked smug: "Our top-performing class in the first year of high school is really famous! Yu Li, this is all thanks to you. Why are you keeping your head down like that?"

Tang Tianci retorted sarcastically, "Isn't it obvious? Yu Li's expression clearly shows he's not convinced! He's probably still blaming Young Master Zhou!"

Yu Li lowered his head and clenched his fists.

Li Lang became even more emboldened: "Yu Li, I'm asking you, do you submit?"

Yu Li's eyes were red-rimmed, and he gritted his teeth: "Li Lang, Tang Tianci, I already know I was wrong, why are you still being so aggressive?"

Li Lang suddenly stepped forward and shoved Yu Li: "What? You did something wrong and you won't let people say it? As a member of the top class, you went and extorted money from students in the regular and lower-achieving classes. You really have the nerve to do such a thing!"
