SSS-Rank Devourer: I Consumed My Way to Godhood

Chapter 3

This meant that he had to become a Fighter within seven days!

It is known that in this world, regardless of a Fighter's skill level, they are all respected.

Simply because they have sacrificed too much for the survival of mankind!

Even a one-star Fighter enjoys a status far above an ordinary family.

As long as Kieran can become a Fighter, even the Ashcroft family would have to listen obediently in front of him!

In addition, to express respect for Fighters, their families will be given comprehensive protection.

Once a Fighter's family member dies due to an accident, people would conduct a detailed investigation of the cause. No matter who the perpetrator is, they would not be spared!

However, it's not an easy task to go through the body tempering stage within just seven days.

"Right, my father's beast core!"

At this moment, as if Kieran suddenly remembered something, his eyes lit up.

"If I remember correctly, my father's beast core has a fire attribute!"

Thinking about this, Kieran quickly left his room and shouted, "Dad, where is your beast core?"

"As a precaution, it's better for me to keep it!"

As soon as this was said, the first response came from his mother's angry scolding: "You little rascal, you really are siding with your dad!"

Ever since something happened to Marcus, his mother has been suggesting to sell that beast core to cover family expenses. However, Marcus has always disagreed.

Nowadays, when Kieran spoke like this, it naturally left a bitter taste in Elena's heart.

"Haha! My son really cares after his old man!"

"It's in the wardrobe in my room!"

Marcus laughed out loud and happily revealed the location of the beast core.

Hearing this, Kieran hurried to his parent's room and fetched the fiery red beast core into his room.

"Ding! The system detects the presence of the beast core."

"Ding! The system has detected that this beast core is a fire attribute beast core produced by the ferocious beast. The host can proceed to devour it."

Listening to the voice in his mind, all of Kieran's hesitations were thoroughly dispelled. Without any hesitation, he activated his devouring skill.

Kieran swallowed the beast core in one gulp.

The innate skill of Devouring Transformation began to independently operate at this moment.

The beast core rapidly dissolved within his body, and soon spread all over.

In just a short moment, Kieran felt a powerful fire-energy attribute roaming incessantly within his body.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, the beast core has been successfully devoured!]

[Ding! The current progress of the host's fire-element Body Tempering is at 60%.]

Hearing the system's prompt, Kieran was stunned on the spot.

Just by devouring a single beast core, he had already stepped into the mid-term of the Body Tempering stage!

You must know, the Body Tempering stage is divided into four levels, namely Early, Middle, Late, and Peak!

Furthermore, the Body Tempering stage is a necessary stage for all fighters, where the fighters have to undergo Body Tempering that corresponds to their respective element.

As far as Kieran knew, those fighters who were blessed with an SSS level talent needed three to five days to reach the mid-term of the Body Tempering stage.

Yet, it seemed like he only used less than a minute!

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully stepping over the threshold of fighters' cultivation!]

[After system detection, the host has initially possessed the ability to accept system tasks, the system is arranging tasks, please wait for the host...]

[Mission One: Normal Mode, the host must break through to the peak level within one week, Reward: one low-level Wind-attribute beast core.]

[Mission Two: Adventure Mode, the host must break through to the peak level within seventy-two hours, Reward: one low-level Wind-attribute violent beast core, one mid-level Wind-attribute monster crystal core.]

[Task Three: Hell Mode, the host is required to reach the peak level of cultivation within twenty-four hours. Reward: one high-grade wind attribute monster core, one Ice God Pearl.]

[Special system reminder, after the host chooses the difficulty of the task, it cannot be changed. If failed, the reward will be cancelled. Please choose carefully!]

Facing the system panel in front of him, Kieran's first instinct is to choose Hell Mode.

Only twenty-four hours to break through to the peak level of cultivation, the timeline is a little too tight.

According to Kieran's estimation, to reach this level, he still needs one high-grade fire beast core.

However, a high-grade beast core would cost a whopping fifty thousand gold coins!

Now, let alone fifty thousand gold coins, even ten thousand gold coins might not be available at home!

As for the Adventure Mode, although it gave Kieran enough time, it was absolutely impossible to become a one-star Dou-duel within a week!

"Right! How could I have forgotten about the Dou League!"

The so-called Dou League, short for Dou Fighter League, is a kind of organization similar to a certification body for Dou Fighters level.

Anyone who meets the requirements to start cultivating can go there for certification registration.

Moreover, as long as the certified registrant is underage, they can receive plentiful rewards after successful certification!

Having this thought, Kieran no longer hesitated and resolutely chose the Hell Mode task.

[Ding! The host has made a choice! The task difficulty is set to Hell Mode, and the system has locked it. Good luck, host!]

As the system prompt fell, Kieran didn't waste any more time, he immediately grabbed his coat and dashed out the door.

...

Thirty minutes later, at the Sky Battle City Fighter's Alliance.

This is an impressive building, with a large crowd of people lining up at the front for certification.

Kieran effortlessly breezed through the crowd. After a quick swipe of his identity card on the machine at the entrance, he stepped into the grand hall amidst the grumbling glares of everyone present.

"Who does he think he is? How can he just bypass the queue?"

"If you ask me, he must be the heir to some major family!"

"How absurd! Everything has gone haywire!"

"Watch your words! Didn't you notice that the guy isn't even eighteen yet? Minors don't need to queue for certification! They are all acknowledged talents!"

Initially, everyone was still voicing their displeasure and animatedly discussing, but after one person's reminder, they instantly shut up!

"Good afternoon, sir, are you here to certify as a Battle Practitioner?"

Kieran had just entered the hall when a staff member immediately greeted him, with a smile plastered on their face.

You must realize that these staff members also rely on commissions for their income.

As long as they successfully certify someone, they can get a corresponding commission, and if the person passing the certification is underage, the commission gets doubled.

"Yes, I am here for the certification, what exactly do I need to do?"

Kieran was scanning the enormous hall while nodding slightly, speaking softly.

Hearing this, the smile on the staff member's face brightened even more: "Sir, please give me your identity proof, and then we need to head over to that machine up front for the certification!"

Hearing this, Kieran directly handed out his identity card and followed the staff to a strangely shaped machine.

"Sir, the system shows this is your first certification."

"You only need to place your hand on the sensing area of the machine and release the element you've cultivated!"

Upon this person's reminder, Kieran slowly placed his right hand on the machine.

Less than three seconds later, an icon of an exuberant flame appeared on the machine's display.

"Congratulations, sir, you have successfully completed the certification; your current cultivation level is at the initial body refining stage!”
