The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1315
Four men stood at the suite door. The leader was Cordon Abrams, a burly man with a crew cut. He grabbed Andrea by her hair and yanked her back inside. "I didn't do anything, I swear!" Andrea pleaded. But Cordon laughed coldly as he picked up the bag, letting all the money fall to the floor. "Really? Did he give you all this money just because you're pretty, then?" Then, he turned to Felix, who was sitting on the couch. "You seem to have a lot of money. Why not spend it enjoying women instead of asking about things you shouldn't know?" Felix remained calm as he said softly, "Looks like you put a listening device on her. You really don't give her any freedom. But with all my money, are you sure you want to mess with me?" To his surprise, Cordon laughed. "You must be from out of town. Do you really think money makes you special? If you had the chance to ask about Mr. Lazaro's reputation in this city, you wouldn't talk like that. "We've dealt with plenty of rich guys like you,

Cordon did not act timid anymore. Instead, he smirked with confidence. "Now that you're on our turf, you play by our rules. Not so cocky anymore, huh?" Felix ignored him, figuring the swimmer in the pool must be Bazzo. After a few more laps, Bazzo climbed out. Someone quickly handed him a towel, and Felix was surprised to see he was a young man. "Mr. Lazaro, this is the man asking about the woman on that card." Cordon then added quietly, "He's a martial artist, and he seems pretty strong." Bazzo gave a slight nod and looked Felix over. "You know Madeline, right?" Since they were getting straight to the point, Felix didn't beat around the bush either. "Yeah, and I'm here to make things right for her. You know there are consequences for doing this without her permission." Bazzo smiled. "Madeline and I were neighbors. I never got her out of my head. I told her how I felt back then, but she turned me down. "Women like that need to learn their lesson." After saying this, h

Felix stood there with a strange expression. This felt oddly familiar. It was almost exactly like what happened with Horace, who was Ashton's descendant. The only difference was that Horace had been protected by a wooden doll, a magical treasure that Felix now owned. But Bazzo was surrounded by swirling green light. Bazzo said, "I never thought you'd be this powerful. You even triggered the magical treasure my grandpa left me." Bazzo's eyes flickered with shock. He clearly had not expected Felix to be so strong. Without his grandfather's protection, he would definitely be dead by now. "There's a lot you don't know. Don't act like you're better than everyone else," Felix shot back.With Felix's current power, there were few people in all of Dragonia he truly feared. He would dare to fight even the Eight Guardians, let alone others. That was why seeing a face formed from the green light didn't intimidate him at all. Bazzo crossed his arms and smirked. "I can be pretty nice som

The situation looked bad—Bazzo knew he was no match for Felix. Once the magical treasure stopped working, he would be dead for sure. He yelled, "Hey! Do you really need to take this so far?" Most of his minions had already run off, and Felix did not stop them from going. That was why Bazzo thought he might still have a chance too. Upon seeing Felix remain silent, Bazzo got desperate. "I didn't hurt Madeline! Why do you have to kill me?" Anger flashed in Felix's eyes. "In today's world, rumors can destroy someone just as badly as physical pain. And you're saying you did nothing wrong?" Felix slowly raised his right hand. "Looks like you know your magical treasure is about to run out of time. Since your grandpa isn't showing up, I won't waste any more time on you." Just as he was about to strike, an old man in a gray trench coat appeared in front of Bazzo. With his messy hair and long beard, he looked rebellious and wild. "Hmph! You've got guts for waiting this long. No wonde

Morius was just about to speak again, but he nearly choked when he heard Felix's words. His eyes showed unprecedented shock, and he felt like he was about to lose his mind. How was this possible? Felix couldn't have reached the peak of Grandmaster Realm already, could he? Not every Grandmaster reached what was called the peak of Grandmaster Realm. While becoming a Grandmaster already showed their martial talent, one thing remained true—there was always someone stronger. It was like someone with ten thousand dollars in savings. Most people they knew were probably in the same financial bracket. But after working hard and saving a million dollars, they suddenly realized there were actually many people with that kind of money. That was the rule—just like with Grandmasters, there were always more impressive individuals out there. Morius had been a Grandmaster for years. Though his power had grown, he had never reached the so-called peak of Grandmaster Realm. Yet now, he sensed it
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1320
Right then, Felix threw a punch at Morius. Morius snorted coldly and formed a hand seal, seemingly about to use some extraordinary technique. Unfortunately for him, they were in the middle of the city, and Felix wouldn't want to cause widespread damage. He then used his Dragon Punches to focus his power on a single point. A thunderous boom erupted. Morius shuddered violently before falling straight to the ground, his eyes filled with disbelief. How could the difference between their power be this huge? That was just impossible!Bazzo was dumbfounded. His invincible grandfather had been defeated with a single strike. The shock was beyond words. "You don't deserve to be alive!" When Bazzo heard Felix's voice again, he wanted to beg for mercy. However, darkness overtook him, and he lost his last strand of consciousness. Felix appeared in front of Bazzo. He raised his right hand, and a green vest-like garment flew toward him. It looked like it was woven from some kind of green g

After stepping outside, Felix answered the call. Xena's voice came through instantly. "I've made up my mind," she said.Felix hesitated, knowing this decision was incredibly difficult. Though they had once loved each other and been intimate, several years had passed, and everything had changed. "Maybe you should think about it more," Felix said."I really have thought it through. This is our best chance to get valuable information about the Hall of Souls. I don't want to miss this opportunity." She added one more thing before hanging up, "And since it's with you, I can accept it." Felix sighed deeply. It seemed Xena still loved him. Unfortunately, time had passed. Some things, once missed, could be very difficult to get back. He immediately sent Billy a message. Despite it being late at night, he received a reply right away. "Got it. I'll be in Zuera in three days. I need to prepare some things." "Okay." By the time Felix returned to the hotel, dawn was breaking. There wa

At this point, Steve's expression became quite interesting. "Think about it. Everyone who wants that land plans to grow grapes and open a winery. If the land gets contaminated, what's the point?" Paul was definitely hardcore for being willing to go that far rather than sell the land. What could he possibly be thinking? "As for underhanded methods, those eventually stopped too! Paul has an extremely powerful cousin, and nobody in Zuera dares to mess with him. Anyone who tries those tactics better be prepared for retaliation." Felix rubbed his chin thoughtfully. Everyone had their price. He didn't believe Paul was truly a man without desires—that was simply impossible. "How about this—can you arrange a dinner between me and Paul? That shouldn't be too difficult, right?" Steve smiled. "Absolutely. As long as it doesn't involve that land, Paul will show me the respect I deserve. "But once we're at the table, if you bring up the land, he definitely won't budge. I hope you won't

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

When Eira and Luigi saw that Felix was determined to go through with it, they moved instantly. Appearing right in front of him, they dropped to their knees."Please, Felix! For the sake of all those innocent lives, stop.""If you're really set on taking this flame, then kill us first."Seeing the two of them so resolute, Felix hesitated. The lives of hundreds of thousands—maybe even millions—now hung in the balance, all dependent on one decision from him."I haven't known you for long," Eira continued. "But from the way you avenged the 200 people of Innswood Village, I know you're not someone who kills without reason. You'd never turn a blind eye to the lives of ordinary people. "Please show them mercy. They've already suffered enough."Tears streamed down her face. The purpose of The Recovery Association was clear—overthrow the Flame Monarch, destroy the Nine Flames, and return Aquamarinus to what it once was. However, when it came to principles and morals, they were unwaveri

Felix thought that Gerald's advice really was spot-on. If he hadn't achieved Extreme Mastery, he could still beat the Flame Monarch. However, his subsequent journey would have been difficult. Winning first place in the Rank-Ascending Competition to protect Earth would've been almost impossible.With a casual wave of Felix's hand, the Flame Monarch collapsed to the ground. Thankfully, no one was around to see it. Otherwise, they'd have been scared out of their minds.The most powerful being on Aquamarinus, the Flame Monarch, just got instantly wiped out by Felix. To Felix, it was like crushing an ant and required no effort at all."It's time to complete the mission," Felix said.Just like that, he vanished. His speed was insane because Nine Flames were all scattered far apart. Since travel was banned at night, he couldn't afford to waste even a second.Honestly, he was curious what it would be like to go out at night. However, after thinking it over, he decided it just wasn't worth

Under the sunlight, Innswood Village looked even lonelier. If it weren't for Felix standing in the open field, the place would've looked like a dead town. Soon, a sound broke through the silent air. A person stood 30 feet in front of Felix. It was the Flame Monarch, whom Felix had met once."I really thought you were a member of The Recovery Association and that you'd laid a trap here. But it turns out, you're really alone."Felix replied, "I am a member of The Recovery Association, but why do I need a trap to kill you?"Oh? A member of The Recovery Association? The Flame Monarch smiled. "You're really brave, you know. You're the first person in Aquamarinus who dares to face me like this. Even the leader of The Recovery Association had been in seclusion, trying to reach Heavenly Realm before facing me."I don't know where you get your confidence from."Initially, Felix wanted to attack immediately. But he still had questions to ask. "There are only the two of us here. Sinc
