The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1046
"I have an old friend whose mentee is currently in Physical Refinement Realm and has been hoarding Ascension Pills for a while now. Felix, if you're confident in your success rate, I believe that three should be more than enough for him," Ezra said.Initially, Felix thought it was nothing. However, the image of Zayn's face surfaced in his mind. Felix knew that he should be fully prepared for their trip to Imperial City."Mr. Whitwell, please contact your friend." With three Transcendent Realm experts with him, Felix didn't believe his enemies would dare to risk it.…A few days later, a group of five people set off in Shepherd's car. This time, Dickson didn't come with them—there wasn't a need for him to.Ezra's old friend was nicknamed Andre the Bear. He was over six feet five inches tall, and despite his full head of white hair, he was incredibly strong. As he sat in the passenger seat, he seemed to fill the whole car."It feels like the air in Martial City is about to change
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1047
Right after the masked figure spoke, he disappeared. A stone was left in his seat. Besides Deborah, the rest of the group panicked.Ezra shouted, "That's Lloyd Lionheart's Pandora's Box. Hurry! Felix is in danger!"Andre and Shepherd quickly recognized it as well. Lloyd Lionheart was also a master of Transcendent Realm. Despite his average combat skills, he was incredibly good at escaping and trapping people. For instance, what just happened was one of his techniques in his arsenal. He could swap positions with anyone or any object within 300 feet. Although it was seemingly useless since the range was incredibly small, sometimes, it still worked wonders. Lloyd's signature skill, the Pandora's Box, was extremely extraordinary. From the outside, the entire Mercedes-Benz seemed to be covered by a black box. Meanwhile, Felix's eyes adjusted to the darkness. Before he could think, his Lone Paragon activated as he felt danger arriving."Dragon's Dance!" he shouted.Just then, all
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1048
Lloyd could only give his all. Otherwise, if they broke out of the box, his companions might die.However, his five companions were still attacking the paper figure, all completely defenseless. After a few minutes, Lloyd was about to lose it, for there were no changes. He couldn't hold on any longer.At this point, he had already used the blood-stained tokens. They were his trump cards for reinforcing his Pandora's Box. Initially, he had planned to use them at the critical moment. He didn't expect that all of them would have been used up by now.If Lloyd didn't man the Pandora's Box himself, the effect would be weak. Under normal circumstances, he would've run away right after trapping them.It was similar to how the Skeletal Demon sealed Felix last time—but this was much more powerful than the Bone Prison. Initially, the three Transcendent Realm masters could only be trapped for ten seconds at most.However, it was definitely enough time to kill Felix. But who would've thought th

On the other hand, Felix was still running. However, his skills were far from the two Transcendent Realm masters. If it was a one-on-one situation, there might still be a chance, but one-on-two? The result was clear.As he felt his pursuers were approaching, Felix suddenly stopped. He knew that it was useless to continue running. It would waste the remaining time of his Lone Paragon. Besides, the two forbidden lands, Corpse Town and Misty Ridge, were too far from here. He couldn't reuse the same method to survive. Thus, it was best for him to make his final stand. Additionally, it would test the difference between himself and the Transcendent Realm masters.Besides, Felix only dared to act like this because he had the token given by the Protector with him. It gave him some sense of security."Oh? You're not running anymore, boy?" the two masked men mocked as they caught up. Although they looked contemptuous, they were still on high alert. After all, they had never encountered some

The only Transcendent Realm master the masked man had killed was with the Blazing Fist. With just one punch, his opponent was burned to ashes, with no traces left. Therefore, for Felix to withstand such an attack proved how terrifying he was."Drop the act. Just kill me already!" As soon as the two masked men launched a palm strike, Felix wasn't afraid. He immediately crushed the token given by the Protector. There was a red light that opened up and instantly enveloped him.There were two loud bangs as the strikes collided with the light. The two masked men were dumbfounded. "How many trump cards do you have? Isn't this way too much?" They were already driven crazy. After that weird paper figure, what was this red shield now? A minute later, the masked men had their mouths agape in shock. No matter how much they attacked, the shield didn't budge. It took absolutely no damage and didn't move. "Hey, you two, you'll die if you don't leave now!" Felix's voice came from the
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1051
In their terror, the two masked figures could only watch as their opponent raised a finger. At that moment, it seemed as if the air itself had stopped moving.They clutched their throats, their expressions twisted in agony as if all the oxygen around them had vanished. Within seconds, they collapsed to the ground, lifeless.Felix drew in a sharp breath as he witnessed the scene. Staring at the woman's back and her pale gold dress flowing around her, his mind went blank.Was she a Grandmaster? Or perhaps another master who had achieved the mastery of Transcendent Realm? If she was the latter, her power was terrifying. They both belonged in the same realm, yet she could instantly kill others.Coming to his senses, Felix straightened his back and bowed respectfully. "Thank you for saving me." The figure remained silent, her back still turned. It left Felix feeling awkward and uncertain of what to do next. He wished she would say something.After ten seconds of silence, her voice ra

Cordelia asked, "You must have known my identity for a while. Now that we've met, is there anything you need me to do for you?" Felix smiled softly. "No need. I'll seek justice with my own hands. If you could have helped earlier, you would have, right?" Felix was truly brilliant, and Cordelia was delighted at such a realization. He was indeed her and Victor's son."The attack on you was ordered by the King, carried out by the fourth and sixth princes. Felix, your presence threatens the balance the royal family has maintained for years." Felix's brow furrowed as realization dawned. "Are you talking about alchemy?" "Exactly. Specifically, the Ascension Pill that creates masters of the Transcendent Realm. The royal alchemists' success rate may not be the highest, but it far exceeds both Bern and Madam Goddard. That's why there are so many masters in the royal family. "Your emergence means more powerful warriors outside royal control. What if they rebel one day? The royal family
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1053
Only when the voice rang out did everyone notice someone had approached. They were all shocked. After all, their power should have detected any presence. Their amazement doubled when they saw it was Felix who had lifted Lloyd by the throat. "Felix! How are you still alive?" Lloyd was the most dramatic, his eyes filled with disbelief. Then, realizing his situation, he panicked. "Help me! Help me!" Despite consuming several pills, his body was still exhausted from using all his trump cards. He could barely move his fingers and speak more clearly than before. In every other way, he was in an utterly vulnerable situation.Just as the other three were about to move, a crisp snap echoed. Lloyd's neck went limp as Felix casually tossed him to the ground. "What's wrong? You're allowed to try killing me, but I'm not allowed to kill?" Without hesitation, the remaining three masters fled. They were clever enough not to separate, running in the same direction. Otherwise, they might ha

The guide said, "This is where the selected contestants rest. The yard is huge and has everything you need. As long as you don't leave this yard, you're free to move around. I'll bring you to your room now."The yard looked huge, with fixtures of bridges and flowing rivers. Felix even passed by a fake mountain. It was large enough for hundreds of people to climb, standing thousands of feet tall and looked quite majestically.No one on Earth or Aquamarinus could have built such a luxurious residence. Felix could even see a bar and massage parlor, showing how indispensable technology was in the universe. His room was luxurious, around 2000 square feet, and was decorated with traditional but modern touches. "This is your room. I'll take my leave now, goodbye." The young man left with a bow. Felix turned around and stood on the patio. Outside his room was a large lake, with even fish swimming inside."A new neighbor? Did you just arrive today?" The sudden voice came from the patio

Felix arrived at the location of one of Nine Flames, where the guards instantly collapsed, their eyes rolling back as they fainted.By now, darkness had arrived. He walked forward without any hesitation, his right hand touching the flame.There was no need for any special tools. The flame simply vanished, and only Felix knew that it was absorbed in an instant by his Starmark.With the disappearance of the flames, people in many places immediately dropped to their knees.The light that should have lasted throughout the night vanished, and the darkness of Desolated Lands descended almost instantly. Every light went out in an instant.Screams echoed everywhere, and panic spread like wildfire. Even though their loved ones were close by, they couldn't see them with their eyes and could only communicate through voice.Scenes like this were unfolding in many places, even in Cloud City."It's really started," Eira said. She was in Cloud City. Although Luigi was standing on her left, h

Despite Thiago's murderous glare and overwhelming killing intent, Felix wasn't scared. In fact, it made him smile.Due to the unique trait of the Dragon Rebirth, his opponent had to harbor a true desire to kill him in order for Felix to grow stronger. Otherwise, it would all be meaningless. At least so far, everything was unfolding just as he expected.Meanwhile, Holt was silently praying like crazy as he lay on the ground. The battle had already begun, and his companion had understood his message. This was their only shot, however slim, at killing Felix.As time passed and the afternoon crept past 3:00 pm, his companion started to falter. His attacks were growing sluggish. He hadn't been injured, but he was clearly on the defensive now.Seeing this, Felix completely lost interest. Once his opponent lost the will to kill him, the Dragon Rebirth would no longer grow.Still, the battle wasn't for nothing. He'd made solid progress and was a little closer to becoming a Celestial Realm
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1563
Felix had clearly found Holt's weak spot. These guys were so desperate to extend their lives that they turned the entire Aquamarinus into a breeding ground. Obviously, they were terrified of death. As long as there was even the slightest chance of survival, they'd take it.And sure enough, Holt immediately agreed. He pulled out some kind of device and flew off, clearly contacting his comrades."But even if I agreed," Holt said, "the three of us split up and searched in different directions. Even if they rush over, they won't make it until tomorrow."The fear in his eyes was obvious, so much so that Felix couldn't help but laugh."How interesting," Felix said. "You made a deal with the Ant Queen, right? Couldn't she at least give you something to help you move freely through Desolated Lands at night?"Holt shot him a bitter smile. "The Ant Queen's children—the soldier ants—are born hunters. That instinct can't be erased. And honestly, we've never needed to go out at night anyway."

Lumen flew out and quickly returned. Felix's expression eased completely, and with a step, he vanished from where he stood."Chasing me was fun last time, huh? Did you think it'd go the same this time?" he asked.When he reappeared, someone was already lying on the ground about ten yards ahead. It was a figure fully shrouded in a gray robe, a man named Holt Bovington.That was Felix holding back. Otherwise, Lumen's previous strike could've shattered Holt's soul on the spot."Felix Zeller? It really is you!" Holt's voice was full of shock. Whatever he'd planned to do was already too late. His soul had taken a devastating blow, and he no longer had the strength to fight."Yeah, it's me. Just like I suspected, you people really aren't all that strong when it comes to soul power."Felix had spared his life because he wanted answers."If you answer a few questions honestly, I'll let you live. Even with your soul badly damaged, I assume someone who knows about Nine Flames and Desolate

Three months later, deep within a mountain on Aquamarinus, a meeting was taking place. Who would've imagined palace-like structures hidden within the mountain itself?In one of the chambers, a sky-blue dome adorned the ceiling. Beneath it, three figures in gray robes sat cross-legged, their bodies cloaked in shadow. Their faces were completely obscured."I went to see the Ant Queen yesterday. There's definitely something wrong.""Enough with the vague talk. Be specific.""In just three months, the Ant Queen has lost millions of her children. Do you even understand what that means?"The atmosphere shifted as all three took a sharp breath. A long silence followed before one finally spoke, "Perhaps our earlier theory is right. Is someone hunting soldier ants in Desolated Lands at night?""It has to be. How else do you explain millions of casualties? At this rate, we're down to just a million soldier ants across the entire planet. If this keeps up, they'll be wiped out in a month. An

"I didn't expect you to be a doctor, too. Thanks," Myles said, but then suddenly froze. His mind started racing.Wait a minute! He took down a tiger of True Blood Realm. On top of that, he was extremely skilled in medicine. That could only mean…"You figured out who I am?" Felix asked with a smile, trying to put Myles at ease. Despite that, Myles couldn't hide his fear. "You're Felix Zeller?""That's right. Judging by your reaction, I take it I've become a traitor to The Recovery Association? Or maybe some kind of unforgivable villain?"The air grew a bit awkward, and Myles shot him a strained smile."Not exactly… It's just that you took down the Flame Monarch. That's kind of hard to wrap my head around."His expression shifted again."Actually, everyone's still pretty confused. When we woke up this morning, every city, town, and even the smallest villages received a message. Five days from now, the Flame Monarch is holding a Flame Ceremony."Felix paused, frowning. "What's t

With Lumen and Indigo attacking and the Infinite Shield defending, Felix held his ground. Occasionally, he cast minor spells that barely consumed any soul power. Even as the monsters surged toward him like a tidal wave, not one of them could so much as scratch him.Feeling the steady stream of energy flooding into him, Felix grinned. If things kept going like this, there was a high chance he'd break through to the next major soul realm—Soul Overlord Realm.If he could level up again during the elimination rounds, his odds of winning the whole thing would increase significantly. Especially since Soul Overlord Realm required soul enhancement, it was a whole different league compared to Aetherium Realm.Once he hit Soul Overlord Realm, he was confident he'd be able to go toe-to-toe in a soul battle with the powerful figure who had chased him during dusk.That guy didn't dare appear in Desolated Lands at night, which likely meant his soul wasn't strong. In that case, Felix might actual

The sun had already begun to set. After fleeing in a panic, Felix had no idea if there was even a single place ahead that could shield him from the coming darkness.A few minutes later, the presence chasing him within his domain disappeared. Logically, the pursuer should've caught up in less than ten minutes, but they gave up. Still, Felix didn't relax for a second. The darkness was about to fall, and that could only mean two things. Either the pursuer wasn't confident they could survive the desolate night themselves, or they assumed there was no flame nearby and Felix was as good as dead.Either way, this was the most dangerous moment yet.After sprinting several more miles, Felix finally stopped. All around him stretched a barren wasteland with no end in sight. Even though he had memorized maps to identify different areas, they were useless now. As darkness swallowed the land, all reference points vanished."Damn it! I guess I'll have to see for myself what the hell comes out i
