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

Looking at the Thousand-Faced King trembling and completely lost, Supreme Xuan Chen sighed, "If you hadn't asked, I wouldn't have told you. But since you asked, I have no choice but to tell you the truth. It's all fate."

The Thousand-Faced King's body went limp, and he collapsed at the feet of Supreme Xuan Chen. He felt regret in his heart: "No wonder the ancients of the 21st century often said that the more you know, the less happy you are. Now, I truly understand what that means."

Xuan Chen Supreme frowned, his eyes deep: "Just as you said, because I know too much, even though I have become a tenth-order supreme beast tamer and rule the world, I can't be happy in private."

After a moment's pause, the Thousand-Faced King said, "I understand what Great-Grandfather means. For now, we can only try our best to please Grandmaster Yu Heng. Our Xuanwu Ling family is at its peak, with a large and prosperous family and business, and we really can't afford to gamble."

Xuan Chen Supreme had an expression that suggested he was easy to teach: "It's good that you understand."

The Thousand-Faced King suddenly had another question: "Then why did you give the tenth-tier Purple Serpent Amulet to King Rongtu? He wouldn't have..."

Supreme Xuan Chen considered the matter very carefully: "He's nothing special, of course. However, if I show too much favoritism, Heng'er might sense something's wrong. After all, Xin'er has been with me longer. Even if Heng'er has better talent, I should still show consideration for Xin'er and treat them equally. Besides, if there really is someone in this world who surpasses the Supreme's realm, what difference does it make if I give them an extra tenth-tier talisman? It's just an external thing. In any case, Xin'er is still my disciple, and also your grand-uncle."

The Thousand-Faced King suddenly realized: "Great-Grandfather was truly farsighted and had a broad vision."

……

Cold Moon Cave, Floating Fortress.

The shrunken three-headed azure phoenix bounced lightly on Zhou Heng's left shoulder: "The Supreme Lord is so good to Daddy that it's frightening. The treasures he gave Daddy must be piled up like a mountain."

The Guixu Divine Dragon wrapped around Zhou Heng's wrist chimed in, "Father's master did indeed give him many treasures, but the most crucial ones are the tenth-tier treasure, the Gouchen Zhulong Talisman, and the original three pages of the Worry-Free Supreme's notes. One is of high quality and contains powerful life-saving abilities. The other has a significant origin, possibly hiding a deep treasure behind it, waiting for Father to uncover it."

Zhou Heng smiled genuinely: "These treasures that Master gave me, apart from a few life-saving items, will mostly be used on you. As you advance in quality and increase your strength, you will need a massive amount of spiritual items."

The Lucky Qilin King, who had been following Zhou Heng closely, blurted out, "It seems we're the biggest winners after all!"

The Titan Lord nodded repeatedly: "From the day we started following my father, we have indeed won at the starting line compared to other beast tamers."

Zhou Heng patted the neck of the Lucky Qilin King, then looked at the Titan Grand Lord: "It is fate that we can become contract partners."

The Abyss Demon Dragon couldn't help but disagree: "What fate? It's mainly because our bloodline quality is not low. Otherwise, with your talent, how could we have met you?"

The Star-Devouring Kunpeng calmly retorted, "You're not the only overlord beast tamer in the world. How come other beasts weren't contracted by Father, but you were? If this isn't fate, what is it?"

The three-headed Azure Phoenix nuzzled Zhou Heng's chin with its head: "That's right! I was only a high-level diamond quality at first. When Dad went to collect the Beast Taming Cub, there was a Thunderflame Flood Dragon besides me. If it weren't for fate, Dad would have chosen me at first glance, and maybe that Flood Dragon would have evolved into a high-level overlord quality by now."

The Netherworld Demon Dragon couldn't help but say, "According to Old Deng, everything is predetermined. Then I won't need to train hard anymore, since I'm destined to become stronger anyway."

Zhou Heng flicked the Netherworld Demon Dragon's forehead lightly with his finger, threatening, "Of course you don't have to train hard, but Fei Hong and the others not only have higher bloodline quality than you, but they also work much harder. You'll never catch up to them. And if you don't train your combat skills, even if your bloodline quality and level catch up one day, you might not be their match."

The Abyss Dragon tilted its head back: "Then tell me, Old Deng, is everything in this world truly predetermined?"

Zhou Heng spoke casually, with an air of hidden meaning: "I can't answer that; you'll have to find the answer yourself."

The Abyss Dragon wouldn't stand for it. It tugged at Zhou Heng's collar with its claws: "Old Deng, you seem to have said everything, yet you seem to have said nothing at all. Are you making fun of me?"

Zhou Heng reached out and swatted the Netherworld Demon Dragon's claws off his collar, explaining, "I'm not teasing you, it's just that your questions involve ancient philosophy, and I genuinely don't know how to answer them. If I say everything is predetermined, that's too pessimistic. If I say you can defy fate, that's unrealistic. Ultimately, only the person drinking the water knows whether it's hot or cold. Whatever you think it is, that's what it is."

After hearing this, the Demon Dragon of the Abyss almost had a brain freeze.

It held its head with its front paws and deliberately shouted, "My head is spinning! Old Deng, you've completely confused me. You have to compensate me with 100,000 tons of delicious food!"

Zhou Heng reached out and pinched the pair of purple fleshy wings on the back of the Netherworld Demon Dragon, teasingly saying, "You rascal, you really are a man of your word, always talking about food."

The three-headed Azure Phoenix didn't hold back in teasing, "Oh dear~ Wasn't our philosophical dragon just discussing fatalism with Daddy? How come he's already reaching out for food again? Isn't that tacky?"

The Netherworld Dragon snorted coldly: "Little Phoenix, if you think eating and drinking are vulgar, then you should never eat or drink."

The three-headed Azure Phoenix proudly raised its head, displaying its magnificent phoenix feathers: "You think everyone is as gluttonous as you?"

The Abyss Dragon bared its fangs and brandished its claws: "Shut your mouth!"

Zhou Heng waved his hand and took out a large pile of delicious food, saying to the six beasts, "It's been a while since you ate before, so this time you can eat your fill."

"That's more like it." The Abyss Dragon pounced directly in front of a fifth-tier transcendent creature and bit off its neck in one bite.

"Thank you, Father." The three-headed Azure Phoenix looked at the high-grade Liquan Spring and Lian Shi that Zhou Heng had prepared for it and thanked him elegantly.

The Devouring Star Kunpeng, the Returning Void Divine Dragon, the Titan Lord, and the Lucky Qilin King were all presented with their favorite foods. After thanking Zhou Heng, they began to enjoy the food to their hearts' content.
