Chapter 26 The Heart of a Strongman!
Chapter 26 The Heart of a Strongman!
First tier, eighth level!!!
These four words struck Zhou Zhan's heart like a heavy hammer, leaving him shocked.
He is a peak fifth-tier beast tamer; there is absolutely no way he could have memory confusion.
That means that his only offspring, whom he had in his later years, advanced five levels in a single day, from the third level of the first rank to the eighth level of the first rank.
Even Zhou Zhan, a peak fifth-tier beast tamer, had never encountered such a rapid advancement.
Unexpectedly, it was his own son who actually did it.
Zhou Zhan knew his son's capabilities well, so the only possibility was that Chen Yu played a key role in this matter.
He immediately turned to Zhou Xin and asked, "How did you manage that? Was it Chen Yu who played the biggest role?"
Zhou's mother also looked at Zhou Xin with curiosity.
Zhou Xin laughed and said, "Dad, it was definitely Brother Yu who did the most work. Don't you know how capable I am?"
Zhou Zhan said, "Just tell me how you did it, no need for any other nonsense."
Zhou Xin nodded: "Dad, listen to me, Brother Yu is really strong. We just teleported to the area where second-tier void beasts are active today, and we already encountered..."
Over the next two minutes, Zhou Xin recounted everything that had happened to the three of them that day in the most concise language.
Upon hearing that Chen Yu and Ex, two little guys at the ninth level of the first tier, could easily kill mutated void beasts at the third level of the second tier, both Zhou Zhan and his mother revealed a look of disbelief in their eyes.
Especially Zhou Zhan, one of the three present, understood best just how incredibly difficult it was to accomplish something like this.
indeed.
Chen Yu awakened the Star Power, a high-level beast-taming talent. Even at the initial stage, he could unleash 10 times the base power. With the addition of the Dragon Flame Battle Blade's 3 times power burst, theoretically, Chen Yu could unleash a maximum of 30 jin of power.
But this is only in theory. To actually achieve it, at least at the ninth level of the first rank, is as difficult as ascending to heaven.
unless……
"Could it be that this kid already realized the importance of basic moves back in his student days, and practiced the basic moves of swordsmanship to a level of perfection?" This thought flashed through Zhou Zhan's mind.
With this thought in mind, Zhou Zhan realized that as a peak fifth-tier beast tamer, he was eager to get the answer.
He immediately issued a command to the intelligent computer:
"Afu, contact that kid Chen Yu and have him meet me in the virtual world. Oh, and bring that kid Rao Yizhong along too."
"Yes, Master."
A brief silence fell over the living room.
Ten seconds later.
Upon receiving a notification from the intelligent optical computer, Chen Yu and Rao Yizhong connected their consciousness into the virtual network world and appeared in the living room of Zhou Zhan's seaside villa.
"Senior." Chen Yu and Rao Yizhong greeted Zhou Zhan.
Next, they looked at Zhou's mother, but since they didn't know who this woman was, they could only look to Zhou Xin, hoping he could help introduce them.
Seeing this, Zhou Xin quickly said:
"Brother Yu, Ah Zhong, let me introduce you. This is my mother."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu and his companion quickly greeted her politely, "Auntie, hello."
"Hello to you all as well." Zhou's mother smiled and nodded.
Her gaze fell on Chen Yu.
As the woman with the highest status in the Zhou family, he is one of only two people besides Chen Yu who know that Zhou Zhan's lifespan is nearing its end.
Therefore, she paid special attention to Chen Yu, the young man personally chosen by Zhou Zhan who would protect her and Zhou Xin in the future.
Seeing that Chen Yu had already greeted Zhou's mother, Zhou Zhan immediately said:
"Kid, your Void Beast's evolution is quite perfect. I'm not surprised that it can easily kill a Tier 2 Triple Mutant Void Beast. After all, the more perfect the evolution of a Void Beast, the stronger the power of its skills."
"But you, kid, were able to easily kill a second-tier, third-level mutated void beast. Could it be that you had already mastered the basic sword techniques to a pinnacle during your student days?"
Chen Yu nodded: "Yes, senior!" He asked in confusion: "Is there anything wrong with this? Not only me, Ah Zhong has also practiced the basic moves of the hammer technique to the same level as me."
"What? This kid has also mastered the basic moves to the highest level?" Zhou Zhan looked at Rao Yizhong, his eyes wide open.
As a peak fifth-tier beast tamer, this was the first time he had lost his composure in front of two juniors.
He felt that he might have misjudged the situation.
Chen Yu is one thing, he was already exceptionally talented.
Unexpectedly, the seemingly ordinary Rao Yizhong was actually more outstanding than his son Zhou Xin.
Seeing Zhou Zhan's shock, Chen Yu couldn't help but say, "Senior, I heard from Brother Zhou Xin that he has also mastered the basic spear techniques to the same level as us. There's nothing strange about that, is there?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhan shook his head and explained, "It's different! Ah Xin only started practicing basic marksmanship after I reminded him. What about you two…?" He looked at the two of them:
"How did you come up with the idea of practicing basic moves during your school days?"
Rao Yizhong respectfully said, "Senior, I didn't think of these things. It was A-Yu who thought of them. He said that before we advance to the second tier, we cannot generate cosmic source energy in our bodies. The more proficient we are in practicing ordinary moves, the faster we will advance after becoming Beast Tamers. That's why I started practicing. If it weren't for his reminder, my original plan was to play until the day of the Beast Taming Talent Awakening Ceremony. After all, if we can't awaken our Beast Taming Talent, then all those basic moves would be a waste of time."
Zhou Zhan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking: Thank goodness, only Chen Yu is more amazing than I imagined, the other kid isn't as outstanding as I thought. However, since he listened to Chen Yu's advice and is a close friend of Chen Yu, this kid's future achievements might not be any worse than A Xin's.
The thought flashed through Zhou Zhan's mind, and he scrutinized Chen Yu before suddenly exclaiming, "Kid, you're really something!"
Chen Yu was filled with doubt and couldn't help but ask, "Senior, what exactly is going on? Could you tell me the truth? Could it be that practicing those basic moves during our student days can help us advance to a higher realm?"
Zhou Zhan shook his head: "It's nothing, I'm just amazed that you have such a strong heart at such a young age, something I don't even have."
The heart of a strongman?
Chen Yu pondered, but found that he couldn't understand what Zhou Zhan was saying at all.
Zhou Zhan smiled and explained, "Kid, don't be confused. I said you have the heart of a strongman, and you do. Back then..." He stood up and paced around the living room:
"During my travels through the universe, I encountered many powerful beings who were unremarkable before reaching the fourth rank, but made rapid progress once they advanced to the fourth rank. Without exception, these powerful beings were all of average talent, but like you, they were able to seize every opportunity to climb upwards even when they were weak."
"The so-called mindset of a strong person is the kind of mentality you have when you're a student and you can think about practicing basic moves."
"If you can maintain this mindset, perhaps one day you will reach a height that even I can only look up to."
As Zhou Zhan spoke, the more he looked at Chen Yu, the more pleasing he became.
After all, the powerful beings he encountered during his travels through the universe, despite their mediocre natural talents, were able to seize every opportunity to grow stronger simply because they possessed the heart of a strong person.
Moreover, Chen Yu, who is naturally gifted, also possesses the heart of a strongman.
At this moment, he felt even more regretful that Chen Yu was not his son.
He firmly believed that as long as Chen Yu did not perish halfway, then the fourth rank was just the starting point, the fifth rank would be normal, and the sixth rank might not even be the limit.
Perhaps, Chen Yu still has a sliver of hope to advance to the King rank, where a single thought can instantly destroy a star, and become a pillar of the human race.
"Is this the heart of a strong person?" Chen Yu lowered his head slightly, his expression somewhat strange.
He felt that Zhou Zhan was mistaken; he didn't actually have the heart of a strongman.
The reason he practiced basic moves was simply because he possessed the God-level Beastmaster panel ability, and he was certain that he would become the most powerful Beastmaster. That's why he practiced basic sword techniques day after day during his student days.
If it weren't for the God-level Beast Tamer panel, Chen Yu felt that he would have played like everyone else, honestly until he turned 18 and waited for the Beast Taming Talent Awakening Ceremony to arrive.
In fact, Chen Yu was wrong about this.
The God-level Beast Tamer panel was his lucky break.
He seized this opportunity and took the initiative to practice the basic moves of swordsmanship, which was exactly what Zhou Zhan called the heart of a strongman.
Even without a god-level beast tamer panel, he would still practice the basic moves of swordsmanship and seize other opportunities after becoming a beast tamer.
However, if one does not possess the heart of a strong person, then even with the divine-level beast tamer panel, he will not actively practice the basic moves of swordsmanship.
After all, lying down is the mindset that ordinary people should have!
