SSS-Rank Devourer: I Consumed My Way to Godhood

Chapter 5

Both were devouring advanced beast cores, but the SSS-rank Fire Element advanced him to the Middle Phase of Body Tempering.

However, the Wind Element, which was only S-rank, could only raise him to the Early Phase of Body Tempering.

However, Kieran was confident of bringing both elements to the peak rank in tandem.

By then, his combat effectiveness could rival that of a single-star fighter.

After all, the combat effectiveness of a single-star fighter only amounts to three hundred!

After exiting the system interface, Kieran stepped out of the restroom and headed towards the entrance of the Fighting Alliance under the escort of staff.

"Sir, would you like me to give you a lift?"

Looking at Kieran, the staff member spoke softly.

He could tell that although Kieran had exceptional talent, his financial situation was not very good. Therefore, otherwise, he wouldn't have needed gold coins that much.

"No need, thank you."

Shaking his head faintly, Kieran continued, "I forgot to ask you for your name."

At his words, the staff member's face lit up with delight and she hurriedly said, "My name is Iris Bellamy, you can call me Iris!"

Being asked her name by such a genius was proof enough that she had left a good impression on Kieran.

It could only benefit her in the future!

"Iris, if I ever need anything, I'll come to you!"

With that, Kieran turned to leave.

However, just at that moment, a voice that echoed throughout the whole Ironhaven City suddenly rang out.

[A joyous announcement!]

[Damien from the Ashcroft family of Ironhaven city - has successfully achieved the rank of a one-star fighter, reward: one million gold coins, and one second-class fighting skill!]

In that instant, anyone who heard that voice could not hide their looks of envy.

Although the reward was quite ordinary, being announced throughout the city by the city lord's mansion, had made Damien incredibly famous.

And this kind of treatment, wasn't that a kind of honor in itself?

"Damien? Another from the Ashcroft family?"

"It's truly extraordinary. One Vincent Ashcroft is already enough, who would've thought there'd be a Damien too!"

"Damien is only about nineteen years old, right? He's even more impressive than Vincent!"

As the voice faded, Iris, her face full of shock, said.

Hearing this, Kieran spoke slowly, "Iris, from your tone, it seems like you know quite a bit about the Ashcroft family?"

Damien, his own enemy!

As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy. Since Iris was clear about Damien's background, how could she let this opportunity slip through her fingers?

"Sir, you jest. The Ashcroft family, especially what I could gather, is merely hearsay!"

Pausing slightly, Iris continued.

"During my years of working in the Battle Alliance, I encountered Vincent of the Ashcroft Family coming for certification."

"If I remember correctly, he was only 23 years old at that time, but he had already certified as a two-star combatant."

"As for Damien, he came to certify as a Cultivation Peak Realm at the mere age of nineteen!"

"Little did I expect that in just a year, he would already be a one-star combatant!"

A twenty-year-old one-star combatant and a nineteen-year-old Cultivation Peak, is this what they call a genius?

Without a second thought, Kieran turned around and headed back to the Battle Alliance Hall. "Iris, I want to certify again!"

It wasn't until Kieran's figure disappeared from sight that Iris reacted, her face filled with shock as she hurried along.

"Could it be that the Sir wants to certify the Peak Realm?"

With this thought surfacing, Iris felt her heart pounding like a frightened deer!

Inside the hall, the queue of people showed expressions of surprise as they saw Kieran return.

"Why has this guy come back again?"

"Could he be attempting another verification?"

"No way, he just left and now he's advanced? Not even a genius could do that!"

As everyone was discussing, Kieran placed his palm on the system's sensing area.

The next second, a blaze that reached to the sky burst forth instantaneously.

Soon after, three blazing sparks appeared one by one on the system's screen.

"Tempering phase, late stage!"

Seeing this result, everyone present quickly inhaled a breath of surprise.

Even Iris, who was standing by the side, was stunned.

"Master Vale, you..."

Before Iris could finish her sentence, she saw Kieran gave her a slight smile. Immediately after, a pure fiery elemental aura continuously circled around him.

"Boom!"

At this moment, the original soaring red light pillar was suddenly transformed, resembling surging molten lava, unbearably hot and dazzling.

Subsequently, the scene on the system's screen changed again, four sparks were neatly lined up.

"Tempering phase -– peak!"

"Wow!"

At this moment, the entire Battle Union hall was boiling over.

"This is impossible!"

"He's not even eighteen!"

"Oh my goodness, what am I seeing? A peak performer not even eighteen years old!"

People in the hall were so shocked, their jaws practically fell off.

Just at this time, a middle-aged man swiftly walked towards Kieran.

"Hello Mr. Vale, I'm Julian Hale, the head of the Battle Union in Sky Battle City!"

As he spoke, Julian extended a friendly right hand towards Kieran.

"Hello, Director Hale, you don't have to call me mister. You can just call me by my name."

Seeing no ill intention from the other party, Kieran reached out and gave him a firm handshake, speaking softly.

He could tell, Julian was certainly a Battler!

Just based on this, no matter what the other party's identity was, he should treat him with respect.

"Then I will refer to you as Brother Vale!"

After saying this, Julian continued: "Brother Vale, I need you to follow me upstairs, there are some rewards that need my authorization."

As his words fell, Julian once more looked at Iris standing aside, speaking in a softer tone: "Iris, come with us too."

After all, from the very beginning, it was Iris who greeted Kieran. With her present, his personal reception wouldn't be too sudden.

At these words, Iris nodded excitedly.

As the director of Dou League, he wouldn't usually appear in the verification hall.

If it weren't for Kieran, Julian would not have come.

After all, who would want to miss the opportunity to connect with a genius like Kieran!

In a short while, on the second floor of Dou League.

Looking at the system in front of him, Julian said slowly, "Brother Vale, normally, the distribution of rewards is not something I need to handle personally, but because you have continuously proven yourself and the amount involved exceeds two hundred thousand, I must authorize it before it can be issued."

Upon hearing this, Kieran didn't react, but Iris looked at her boss with some surprise.

In her impression, no matter how large the reward, as long as their staff confirmed it, there was no need for the director's approval.

As if guessing what Iris was thinking, Julian gave her a meaningful look.

He did all this in order to get to know Kieran better.

"Great! The system has made the transfer, and you will receive the message within ten minutes!”
