Rudolph Jettel Clarinet Method, book 2, is mostly a scale book with many patterns not found in Baerman and a more challenging coverage of altissimo scales and intervals.
Jost Michaels Supplementary Scale Systems covers altered scales and very intricate combinations of chord and interval patterns.
Both of these advanced German books are available from Van Cott Music. Both require dogged persistence to work through and both will markedly increase technique if regularly and accurately practiced. If you're looking for challenging and varied etudes (in addition to the scales) to practice, see Book 3 of the R. Jettel method. While still tonal, these break out of the familiar patterns of Classical and Romantic style. Just as JeanJean's studies opened up the musical materials of French Impressionism, Jettel's introduce elements of chromaticism and extended tonality practices found in R. Strauss, Reger, Hindemith, and other early modern German composers.
