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

There is also a small island in the middle of the lake, with an area of ​​less than 100 square kilometers, on which there are many antique-style buildings.

A middle-aged man dressed in retro blue clothes was sitting on a blue stone on the edge of the island, fishing with a rod, looking very relaxed and content.

This man was Zhou Heng's grandfather, the former head of the Zhou family.

A sixth-tier commander beast tamer can live to be over 240 years old.

As a ninety-year-old sixth-level commander beast tamer, Patriarch Zhou was indeed a middle-aged man.

The 300-meter-long Yao Ye Peacock landed a hundred meters away from Old Master Zhou and respectfully lowered its proud head.

Zhou's parents quickly helped Zhou Heng fly down from the Yao Ye Peacock's back and came to the Zhou family patriarch.

The couple exclaimed in unison, "Dad!"

Zhou Heng then spoke up: "Grandpa!"

The old patriarch Zhou turned around, his smile kind: "My dear grandson, come here quickly!"

As soon as Zhou's parents let go, Zhou Heng rushed to his grandfather's side.

Facing his grandfather, Zhou Heng felt a long-lost sense of warmth and familiarity.

The old patriarch of the Zhou family felt the same way about Zhou Heng.

Because blood ties are very special, they are hard to compare with other relationships.

Especially once you become a sixth-tier Commander Beastmaster, you can easily sense your bloodline descendants without any means, which adds another layer of bond compared to ordinary people.

The old patriarch of the Zhou family smiled broadly: "It's only been five years, and you've grown so much? You teenagers grow up so fast."

Zhou Heng looked slightly surprised: "Grandpa, you know about puberty too?"

"Who do you take me for? I was young once too." The old patriarch of the Zhou family cast his fishing rod, and in a flash, he teleported from the bluestone to in front of Zhou Heng.

He pulled Zhou Heng into his arms and "caressed" him for a while, ruffling Zhou Heng's specially styled hair: "You child, not only are you talented, but you're also more handsome than your father, just like me back in the day, truly lovable."

Zhou Heng flattered, "It's all thanks to my grandparents' good genes."

The old patriarch Zhou was in high spirits: "Of course. In our long-standing families, with generations of intermarriage, how could any of our clansmen who have gone out be ugly?"

Zhou Heng nodded repeatedly: "Grandpa is right, I have learned a lot."

The more the Zhou family patriarch looked at Zhou Heng, the more satisfied he became. He couldn't help but tease him, "Haha! My good grandson, where did you learn this from? You're acting like a little adult."

Zhou Heng was a little embarrassed: "Grandpa, please stop teasing me."

The patriarch patted Zhou Heng on the shoulder: "That's more like it! I dislike it when you kids act all mature for your age. Kids should act like kids, be lively! Are your parents particularly strict with you?"

Mr. Zhou quickly defended himself: "Dad! You've misunderstood me. Heng'er is just naturally like this. He's very easy to take care of and doesn't need us to constantly supervise him. He's learned everything on his own."

The old patriarch of the Zhou family kept praising Zhou Heng: "Good child, you are so talented, so well-mannered, obedient and sensible. Among your peers in this generation of the family, Heng'er, you are the most outstanding."

Zhou Heng appeared very sensible and well-behaved: "Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa."

As they were talking, a middle-aged woman dressed in gold flew in from the sky. When she saw Zhou Heng, her eyes were full of joy.

She was Zhou Heng's grandmother, the wife of the former head of the Zhou family, and the same age as Zhou Heng's grandfather.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhou immediately said, "Mom!"

Zhou Heng rushed to Grandma Zhou's side: "Grandma!"

Grandma Zhou hugged Zhou Heng tightly: "My precious grandson, did you miss Grandma?"

Zhou Heng nodded emphatically: "I really want to!"

Madam Zhou looked at Zhou Heng with a face full of affection: "Your grandfather and I are advancing our beasts to the seventh rank, so we can't leave. We can't even visit you. We can only look at your photo through the communicator and think of you. Now that you're back, your grandfather and I will definitely make it up to you."

Zhou Heng smiled and said, "Grandma, I'm doing very well in Xuanxiao City. There's no need for any compensation."

The old patriarch Zhou shook his head and said, "That won't do. It's our fault, really. We weren't strong enough five years ago, otherwise we wouldn't have had to send you to Xuanxiao City."

Zhou Heng had a clear understanding of the situation: "The Su family and the Zheng family are also large aristocratic families. Although they are slightly weaker than us, we can't defeat them all at once. At that time, the family was busy recuperating, and the various forces in the alliance were intertwined. So we could only choose to back down and compromise with each other. Anyway, my parents and I didn't suffer any hardships or grievances when we went to Xuanxiao City. We just treated it as a trip."

Old Madam Zhou felt even more sorry for Zhou Heng: "You are such a sensible child."

Afterwards, Zhou Heng reconnected with his grandparents, and he and his parents moved in with them.

In the following days, he met even more relatives.

His grandparents had a total of 29 children: 16 sons and 13 daughters.

Twelve of their children lacked the talent for beast taming.

Of the remaining seventeen people, his fourth uncle is over seventy years old this year. He has an S-level talent, is a sixth-level commander beast tamer, and is also the current head of the Zhou family.

The most talented is his tenth uncle, an SS-level talent. He is only in his sixties this year, and his strongest beast taming level has already reached the peak of the sixth rank. He is the strongest among all his brothers and sisters and is now the head of the ten elders of the family.

When Zhou Heng's tenth uncle was young, he was a prominent figure, known as the most talented member of a noble family in the last fifty years.

Nearly fifty years have passed since his tenth uncle awakened his talent.

During this period, including his tenth uncle, a total of three individuals with SS-level talents emerged in the alliance.

However, the other two were from humble backgrounds, one from a poor family and the other from a commoner family. Therefore, the most talented beast tamer among the aristocratic families within the last fifty years was Zhou Heng's tenth uncle, which was well-deserved.

This is actually quite normal; the larger the base number, the greater the probability of finding someone with exceptional talent.

The number of people from poor families and commoners far exceeds that of children from aristocratic families. If we disregard the proportion and only look at the total number, it is actually more likely that talented people will emerge from among those from poor families and commoners.

But the status of aristocratic families can never be shaken.

Because most high-level beast tamers from humble backgrounds or commoners choose to establish aristocratic families after achieving success.

Due to his talent, Zhou Heng's tenth uncle will inevitably surpass him and become a seventh-tier feudal lord beast tamer earlier than his fourth uncle.

There are also some uncles and elders whose talents are relatively average.

The worst ones even have an F rating.

For example, his eleventh uncle is over sixty years old this year, and he is only a third-level elite beast tamer.

And then there's his twenty-fourth uncle, who's already forty years old this year, but he's only a second-tier senior beast tamer.

Limited by their talent, they can only contract bronze-quality beasts in their lifetime. No matter how hard they try, they can only cultivate bronze-quality beasts to the limit-breaking stage and become fourth-tier grandmaster beast tamers.

Moreover, the probability of this is very small, approximately zero.

Therefore, even with the expenditure of many resources, a third-tier elite beast tamer is often the limit of their lifetime.
