The messages said that each subsequent kill of the same rank of beast will only give a 0.1% boost to the power granted by the world. He will need to kill a thousand more birds to get to the next rank, which he did pretty easily. That's why he received a new type of message.

-(CONGRATULATIONS ON COMPLETING A LOCAL FEAT)-
YOU ARE THE FIRST ONE TO ACHIEVE THE 5TH STEP IN ARENA 28.
-(CONGRATULATIONS ON COMPLETING A GLOBAL FEAT)-
YOU ARE THE FIRST ONE TO ACHIEVE THE 5TH STEP IN ALL ARENAS.
The first bird he killed gave him the 4th Step directly. It empowered him enough to skip through the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd steps and allowed him to finish setting up the first phase of the pillars of momentum quickly enough before he was overwhelmed. It was until he killed a thousand birds that he got the 5th mark. The 5th mark boosted the number of fists he could make so he was able to kill more birds after that but their rewards were discouraging.
/Killed Rank 4 Giant Reaper Bird/contemporary romance
/Gained 0.00001% To 5th Step Death Mark/
He would need to kill a hundred thousand more birds if he wants to get to the 6th mark. The worth of the 4th rank birds is too little for meaningful progress. If he wants to make faster progress on the death mark, then he will have to kill more powerful monsters. Maybe rank 5 or rank 6 monsters.
He received more notifications of feats and global announcements of his feats but the only one he cared about is the One Vs 10,000 feat.
-(CONGRATULATIONS ON COMPLETING A UNIQUE FEAT)-
YOU FACED 10,000 AND WALKED AWAY VICTORIOUS
It is a feat that is one of a kind. It is unlike his other feats that can be replicated. No one can replicate the global feats that he earned since it is meant for the first person to do it but the other local feats can be replicated in each arena.
He might be the first to kill a rank 4 monster in the entire competition but there are rank 4 monsters in other arenas and someone can be the first to kill them in those other arenas apart from Arena 28. His unique feat cannot be copied though. It is for him and only him.
In total, he earned 13 feats from his skirmish with the Giant Ravens and his strength has increased by another 1.5%. So his suppression has reduced to 94.5%.
Next, he checked announcements unrelated to him. Some people are making waves apart from him.
*LOCAL MESSAGE*
(DHARJA KHARMA HAS COMPLETED THE FEAT OF BEING THE FIRST TO KILL A RANK 1 MONSTER IN ARENA 28)
*GLOBAL MESSAGE*
(JARKON LIONHEART HAS COMPLETED THE FEAT OF BEING THE FIRST TO KILL A RANK 1 MONSTER IN ALL ARENAS)
Someone in his arena became the first to kill a rank 1 monster while JARKON LIONHEART, the moody brat that is bent on revenge for the death of his brother achieved two feats in his arena. They are for being the first to kill a rank 1 rank monster in his arena and every arena in the competition. He also probably became the first to reach the 1st step in his arena too. Which makes him sit at a total of 3 feats.
He chuckled to himself as he read the messages. While he is tackling the 4th and 5th steps the others are just achieving the 1st step or killing rank 1 monsters. Funny enough, the feats are equal. His achievement of being the first to kill a rank 4 monster is equal to the achievement of being the first to kill a rank 1 beast. Except he became the first to achieve the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th steps.
He checked his brand for updates as he walked on.
NAME: Soverick Ghastorix.
POWER: 5th Step: 0.0003%
DESIGNATION: EMPEROR
SCORE: 17,762,814
RANK: 1.
FEATS: 15
eαglesnovel`c,om His score has increased drastically. It used to be zero but killing rank 4 beasts, each worth between 1000 to 10,000 points did that. It also shot him to the first on the ranking list. His 15 feats are surely enough to achieve that too. He got 10 for being the first to achieve the 1st to 5th step in his arena and globally. 1 from his unique feat, 2 from his act of being the first to kill a rank 4 monster, and the last 2 for being the first to fly. It is enough to push his designation to the next rank.
He became emperor rank for achieving 15 feats. The golden crown on his head has also changed to pitch black. It seems like an important change but he finds it difficult to care about it. He doesn't know what's so important about designations so it is difficult to appreciate it. There's information on how to get them but not what they do. Your score determines your rank. Designations have to be very important seeing as only by achieving feats can one progress with it.
0 feat = Soldier. 1 feat = Captain. 3 feats = General. 6 feats = Duke. 10 feats = King. 15 feats = Emperor. ?? feat = ??? Designation.
That's all the information that they were given about designation. There should be another designation after Emperor but there's no information about it.
He shrugged and said, "There's no need to think about it. There's more to this competition than meets the eye. I'll see it when I see it. For now, just have fun."
He decided to stop worrying about that and dedicate more of his mental power to comprehending the rules of this world. He is multitasking right now. His eyes and the 9 pillars of momentum are busy doing their stuff about cracking the law matrix of this world. He would rather try to speed it up than worry about something he can't change.
