Novel Full Chapter 441 Ranks Of The True Elite
‘At times like these, you can’t help but think that the system is stringent in its requirements sometimes.’ Obtaining a notification that [Signs of a True Elite] had been upgraded, Valyr let out a small chuckle, thinking about how ironic the requirements were, considering the monsters that he had been fighting against these past few days.
‘Anyways, what kind of things did the title upgrade change?’ With a bright smile plastered on his face, the young man commanded the system to show him the description of his newly upgraded title, causing a screen to appear in front of him not long after.
Ding!

“Did the title ever mention the requirement needed to upgrade it in the past? I can’t remember.” Closing the screen after he was done reading, Valyr uttered out a few words to himself, inwardly nodding in satisfaction as he thought about following the words written on the title’s description to take the title one step further.
“What…” Though, just as he was about to make a move against another monster to upgrade his title, Valyr was reminded of his escort’s presence, whose current expression was that of someone at an immense loss for words. “You just killed that monster in one hit…”
“Hmm?” Looking back at Zeik, Valyr raised his eyebrow as he nodded. “Yeah? What about it?”
“And you were just telling me earlier that you would only be able to handle Rank 4 Elite monsters at most?” Seeing that Valyr was not getting what he was trying to convey, Zeik let out a soft sigh. “That kind of strength is more than enough to fight against high tier Rank 4 monsters without a problem!”
“I’d still rather err on the side of caution.” Gaining a stronger belief that he might just have what it takes to fight against Rank 4 monsters because of Zeik’s words, Valyr swiftly discarded those thoughts as he gave the man a wry smile. “If anything, the only way I would be certain I could fight against a Rank 4 monster without a problem is if I fought against a Rank 4 monster.”
“Let’s head to Point Devann, then.” Unsurprisingly, Zeik took those words as an opportunity, suggesting that they head to a place more suitable for his strength.
Unfortunately for him…
“I’m still getting warmed up. Not so sure about my strength once I go all out yet.” Continuing to smile at Zeik, Valyr shifted his gaze back to the sea of monsters situated a fair distance away from them, utilizing his hyperfocus ability and [Greater Analysis] once more to find a monster that fit the requirements needed for him to upgrade his title even further.
Thankfully, it did not take long for him to find one, taking a few steps in a certain direction to get an Elite tier Metallic Centipede to be within a hundred meters from Valyr.
Whoosh!
Similar to the normal Metallic Centipede from earlier, the Elite tier Metallic Centipede gained a crimson haze around its head as its aura underwent a significant boost in strength, crawling across the watery ground at great speeds as it sought to end Valyr’s life once and for all. However, just like the Metallic Centipede from earlier…
“[Crimson Blade Torrent]!”
Whoosh!𝗈𝔳𝐞𝔩xt.𝗇𝓔t
Ding!
[With a 10+ level disparity between the user and the opponent, the amount of experience obtained shall be increased by 200%.]
[You have slain a Level 50 Metallic Centipede (Uncommon Elite). You have gained 287,802 XP.]
[Showing the world that even Uncommon Elite beings pose no difficulty against your onslaught, your title ‘Makings of a True Elite’ has been upgraded to ‘True Elite I’.]
Leaving nothing more than the somewhat mangled and charred remains of what was an enraged Metallic Centipede around the same distance where the first Metallic Centipede had been slain, Valyr took a look at the description of the upgraded title once more, nodding as he took note of the changes brought about by the upgrade, as well as the requirements needed to upgrade it once more.
‘A Rare Elite monster 10 levels higher than me, huh.’ Taking a brief look at Zeik, whose eyes now seemed to be rolling inward due to the shock he felt, Valyr returned his gaze back to the sea of Metallic Centipedes near them, having to maneuver his movements in a way that he did not attract any of the normal and Elite tier Metallic Centipedes while finding an Uncommon Elite one.
Though he had to kill about a dozen Metallic Centipedes along the way, with almost 75% of them being Uncommon Elite thanks to the curse’s effects, he eventually came across a lone Uncommon Elite tier Metallic Centipede near the outer region of the sea of monsters.
Making sure to not attract any other Metallic Centipedes along the way, Valyr swiftly made his presence known to the Uncommon Elite tier Metallic Centipede, which swiftly improved to Rare Elite thanks to the curse’s effects as it swiftly made its way to where Valyr was.
Sadly for the Metallic Centipede, just like the two that came before it…
“[Crimson Blade Torrent]!”
Whoosh!

[With a 10+ level disparity between the user and the opponent, the amount of experience obtained shall be increased by 200%.]
[You have slain a Level 50 Metallic Centipede (Rare Elite). You have gained 335,769 XP.]
[With even Rare Elite beings bowing down under your might, your title ‘True Elite I’ has been upgraded to ‘True Elite II’.]
‘Now I have to kill an Epic Elite monster 15 levels higher than my current level if I want to upgrade the title, huh.’ Skimming through the title’s new description, only to focus on the requirements needed to upgrade it, Valyr turned around to look at Zeik before asking him a question.
“Say, you know where Site 9 is, right?”
“…”
“…”
Thud.
