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

Zhou Heng looked at the two assassins and said, "Loyal Elder and Brave Elder, summon your beasts as well!"

The old man bowed his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, young master, but our beasts are already at the fifth level. They are too big. We are afraid we can't unleash their full potential when they are summoned. If we shrink their size, it will also look awkward."

Zhou Heng did not press the two further: "Since that's the case, then let's leave it at that."

The two assassins bowed and said, "Thank you for your understanding, young master."

Zhou Heng instructed Manager Ge, "Let's begin the banquet!"

"yes!"

Manager Ge, dressed as an eunuch, waved his whisk and announced, "Let the banquet begin!"

Immediately, waitresses dressed as palace maids filed in, carrying various delicious dishes.

These were all the signature dishes that Zhou Heng used to order when he came here with his parents, and one serving was placed on each person's table.

Most of them are cooked using third- or fourth-tier spiritual materials combined with the finest meat from extraordinary creatures of the same level. They are not only delicious and visually appealing, but also highly nutritious and nourishing.

Then a group of waiters directed a type of tamed beast called the Mighty Green Ape to bring over a mountain of food and pile it in front of Zhou Heng and the others' tamed beasts.

These foods are of a lower grade, mostly consisting of the flesh and blood of first or second-tier extraordinary creatures, without any cooking, only slightly processed.

But the quantity is large and filling.

Apart from Fengyi and Qingluan, Zhou Heng and the others' other tamed beasts immediately began to feast.

Knowing that Fengyi Qingluan didn't like eating meat, Zhou Heng immediately had someone bring over a bunch of spiritual fruits and flowers, which delighted Fengyi Qingluan.

Then, the sounds of string and wind instruments filled the air, and accompanied by the music, countless beautiful dancers came singing and dancing, their flowing sleeves captivating the audience.

As Zhou Heng and his entourage enjoyed delicious food, watched song and dance performances, and were served by waiters, they were not much different from emperors of seven or eight thousand years ago.

Zhou Heng, Li Lang, and Pang Jie were here before, so they were quite at ease.

Only Shi Jingqi was still a little reserved.

However, Wang Xuchen seemed to have a very strong ability to adapt. After the initial surprise, he quickly integrated into the group.

Seeing this, Shi Jingqi gradually stopped feeling embarrassed.

Pang Jie couldn't help but ask, "Zhou Heng, I heard before that you were already a third-tier elite beast tamer, and your strongest beast was already level twenty-five. Not to mention on Xuanxiao Star, even among your peers in the entire alliance, you are one of the best. Seeing you today, it's indeed true! How do you train your beasts? Do you have any secrets?"

Zhou Heng truthfully replied, "There's no secret to it. As long as you have good talent, high-quality beasts, and enough resources, your level will naturally increase quickly."

Wang Xuchen looked wistful: "Zhou Heng, I really envy you~ You also have S-level talent, but unfortunately your Emerald Elf Lord is only level sixteen. I wonder when you will reach level twenty-one and advance to the third tier."

Shi Jingqi said nonchalantly, "I'm even worse off; my Rock-Suppressing Mountain Rhinoceros is only at the peak of level fifteen."

Zhou Heng glanced at the Canghai Yunyao: "Pang Jie's beast taming skill is already level fifteen, right?"

Pang Jie nodded: "I just reached level 15 not long ago."

Li Lang sighed, "You are all stronger than me. My Frost Bear King has only just reached level fourteen."

Zhou Heng raised his wine glass: "Actually, everyone is very excellent. I just have a slight advantage in my background. The reason why my strongest beasts can reach level 25 so quickly is because they are of mid-level overlord quality. If their quality were lower, they would not have been able to improve so quickly."

Pang Jie looked at him with admiration: "The beast cubs of the Overlord quality are strictly controlled by the Alliance. Apart from the direct descendants of the major and top families with S-level talents, it is very difficult for others to obtain one. You were able to contract two Overlord cubs in your first year of high school. You are probably the undisputed champion of this year's East Asia Championships. You can even be called a potential champion now!"

Zhou Heng shook his head: "You flatter me, you flatter me. Until the very last moment, who knows who will emerge victorious? Especially since the top high schools on the four core ancient stars are full of hidden talents, and none of the geniuses there are simple."

Shi Jingqi put down his chopsticks: "As far as I know, the top scorer in the league in previous years was usually a fourth-level Grandmaster Beastmaster who had just broken through, basically at level thirty-one or thirty-two. You were definitely more than that level when you took the college entrance exam."

Wang Xuchen agreed with Pang Jie and Shi Jingqi's assessment: "That's right. We haven't even finished the first semester of high school yet, and Zhou Heng has already raised his Beast Taming to level 25. By the time of the college entrance exam, he'll be at least level 33. Isn't that a sure thing for the top scorer? Calling him a potential top scorer is not an exaggeration at all."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Heng did not respond directly, but joked, "Don't praise me like that, I'm getting arrogant."

Pang Jie sighed, "If someone with your talent and background can't be proud, then who will?"

Li Lang exclaimed excitedly, "Let's all raise a glass to the future ASEAN champion!"

Zhou Heng said some polite words: "You're too kind! We are all chosen ones, and we all have a bright future."

"Cheers!"

"Dry……"

The group toasted and laughed, filling the private room with cheerful conversation.

After finishing their meal, Zhou Heng and the others played many ancient games.

They played all sorts of games, including pitch-pot, archery, murder mystery games, and werewolf games.

Six or seven thousand years ago, these games led a generation of trends.

Even after six or seven thousand years, it remains popular.

Before we knew it, it was dusk.

Zhou Heng and the others were also preparing to go home.

Li Lang suddenly pulled out his communicator: "I created a small group chat and added you all to it. We can chat in this group chat from now on."

Wang Xuchen nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay!"

Zhou Heng picked up his communicator and saw a five-person group chat called "[Tianjiao Squad]" appear on his message page.

Li Lang smiled and said, "If anything happens in the future, we can share it in this group."

Everyone said, "That's a good idea."

Afterwards, the five of them played for a while longer, until it got dark.

"Manager Ge, the bill please." Zhou Heng took out a gold card.

Manager Ge jogged forward: "You are our VIP guest, so we'll give you a 50% discount and waive the 15% service charge. Your total bill for today is 3.58 million."

This isn't just for Zhou Heng and the others; it's also for the beasts they tame.

Li Lang blurted out, "This meal only cost 3.58 million? That's such a bargain!"

Manager Ge smiled, his eyes narrowing into slits: "This is just a special discount for Young Master Zhou. Others won't get this price."

Pang Jie didn't feel anything about it. Although he wasn't from a prominent family, he was still from a wealthy family and had never lacked money since childhood.

Shi Jingqi and Wang Xuchen remained silent because they came from humble backgrounds.

For them, 3.58 million yuan for a meal is indeed a bit too expensive, considering that their parents' net worth is only around 100 million yuan.

They usually spend a few thousand yuan on a meal when they go out, which is quite a luxury compared to ordinary people.

But compared to the direct descendants of a truly large and powerful family like Zhou Heng, they are still insignificant.
