SSS-Rank Devourer: I Consumed My Way to Godhood

Chapter 6

After operating the system for a while, Julian said slowly.

Sure enough, within a minute, Kieran received a message about the gold coins' arrival.

A total of three hundred and fifty thousand gold coins!

"By the way, Brother Vale, judging by your appearance, you're still a student, aren't you?" Julian started a new topic after confirming his thoughts.

"Yes, I am currently a student at No. 1 Middle School." Kieran responded, giving a slight nod.

"Oh? I didn't expect that we would have such a connection, we're alumni! You should refer to me as your senior now!" Julian was definitely skilled in socializing, managing to build a closer relationship with just a few words.

"Director Hale, I have a question for you." Kieran stopped beating around the bush. "If a dual-element user goes for certification, will there be any special rewards?"

Dual-element?

Upon hearing those words, Iris looked at Kieran in absolute shock. The very fact that he brought this up meant he could possibly be a dual-element cultivator!

Julian pondered a moment before replying, "Even though dual-element fighters are extremely rare, the Fighter Alliance does not provide special rewards for this."

"As we all know, single-element cultivation is already difficult. As for dual-element fighters, it requires double the time and effort for cultivation."

"Therefore, the Fighter Alliance suggests that dual-element fighters focus on one single element. Once they reach the peak, they can start cultivating the other element."

Hearing this, Kieran simply nodded.

In contrast, Julian seemed to understand belatedly: "Brother Vale, could it be that you are a dual-element user?"

Kieran didn't directly answer, making it uncomfortable for Julian to ask further.

"Director Hale, since the rewards are already in place, I won't bother you anymore!"

Having gotten the answer he wanted, Kieran didn't want to linger any longer. He got up and left immediately.

With Kieran's departure, Iris then spoke decisively: "Director Hale, I am sure that Mr. Vale is definitely a dual-element fighter!"

Upon hearing this, Julian just nodded slightly and exclaimed: "To reach such a peak at his age, even if he is a triple-element fighter, I would believe it!"

As his words fell, Iris thought deeply and nodded in agreement. Soon after, as if thinking of something, she hurriedly said: "Director Hale, there's another matter that I feel necessary to report to you!"

"I feel that there seems to be some conflict between Mr. Vale and Damien."

Hearing this, Julian's eyes lit up instantly and he hurriedly asked, "What's going on? Tell me in detail!"

Soon, Iris recounted Kieran's reaction upon hearing the good news from the city lord's mansion.

"From what you've said, it does seem quite possible."

With Julian's identity and status, he naturally had a good understanding of all the major families in Sky Fighting City, including the Ashcroft family.

However, in his impression, there was no existence of the Vale family, and from Kieran's appearance, he was just a child from an ordinary family. Thinking of this, Julian immediately said in a low voice: "Iris, go and investigate the relationship between Kieran and the Ashcroft family right away, remember, you must keep this mission secret!"

On the other side, Kieran had just returned home and saw his parents waiting in the living room.

"Mom, Dad, what is this about...?"

This kind of parental confrontation was all too familiar to Kieran.

After glancing at his wife, Marcus sternly said, "Kieran, your mom and I have discussed it, we've decided to sell the beast core that we obtained earlier. Now you're at a critical juncture, this money will be good for you to catch up, striving to cross the threshold of the body tempering period before graduation!"

Hearing this, Kieran was stunned and couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Dad, weren't you unwilling before?"

Before, Marcus was unwilling to sell the beast core, mainly because of his sentimental attachment to his team leader.

But now, he thought it through. Rather than seeing this beast core every day, it would be better to sell it to supplement the family income and relieve some of the pressure on Kieran and his mother.

"I had a mental block before, Dad didn't get it!"

"I understand now. The captain didn't give me the beast core to keep as a treasure. He definitely wouldn't want to see my current situation either!"

The words fell, and Marcus and Elena looked at Kieran again.

"No way! I can't sell it!"

What a joke!

The beast core has already been swallowed by him, where can he sell it!

"Dad, Mom, I'm already at the early stage of the Body Tempering Stage, you don't have to worry about my cultivation!"

In order to dispel his parents' doubts, Kieran said directly.

Hearing this, the old couple glanced at each other. Then, Elena got up slowly, touched Kieran's forehead, and said with a puzzled face, "His body temperature is normal, why is he talking nonsense?"

Seeing this, Kieran smiled helplessly, directly taking out his freshly minted certification report.

"Dad, Mom, I went out earlier to get my certification from the Fight Union. This is my report!"

Upon hearing this, Elena took the report and, after seeing the prominently written "Early stage of Body Tempering" on it, she instantly laughed with joy, "Wow, it really is the early stage of Body Tempering!"

On the side, Marcus, due to his poor health, couldn't move and could only sit on the couch urging, "Show me quickly!"

You see, achieving the early stage of Body Tempering before graduation is something only very capable students can accomplish!

The next day, at No. 1 Middle School.

"Later, the school will conduct a live-action drill for the graduating class. At that time, we'll evaluate your performance and provide special training for some of the outstanding students!"

"This is closely related to your future college entrance examination. We hope that you all will give it your all, not only to bring honor to your class but also for your future!"

"Did all of you hear that clear?"

The instructor's gaze briefly passed over everyone's faces, his voice brimming with solemnity.

"Understood!"

Everyone naturally knew what this combat drill meant, eager and ready to flex their skills.

An hour later, at the training field.

By the time Class 9, where Kieran was located, arrived, the field was already crowded.

By conservative estimation, there was at least one thousand students from the graduating classes of No. 1 Middle School.

To conveniently assess the students' capabilities, the school deliberately adopted the arena battle format, dividing all students evenly into several groups, each group led and evaluated by a resident teacher.

Kieran's Class 9 was coincidentally divided into the third group.

"Hello everyone, I'm the teacher responsible for evaluating your performances. My name is Callum West, and I ask everyone to give their utmost effort!"

As a teacher walked into the field, numerous students began to curiously inquire.

"Teacher West, do we challenge you?"

Hearing this question, Callum West chuckled softly and replied calmly, "Naturally, the challenges should be between students. I am at the peak of body tempering stage. I won't refuse any challenge if you lot dare to take it on."

"Besides, we will adopt the format of arena battle, with defenders and challengers!"

"So, who wants to be the defender next?”
