At the headquarters of the Phoenix Legion, Belle was flushed with excitement. "Milady! I'm sure Mr. Summers Senior is definitely going to be saved this time!"Xena was equally elated. After all, it was the Miracle Card at stake. Once they had it, the miracle doctor would surely appear, and Curtis' illness would be cured without question."Don't get too excited just yet. We still don't know exactly what the Kinsley family wants in exchange, and the publicity for this auction is everywhere. Even though it's only been one day, many big names are bound to come in."However, Belle was unconcerned. "I'd like to see who dares disrespect you."The smile on Xena's face faded as her voice turned cold. "Though I am a goddess of war, there are plenty of people in Dragonia who don't take me seriously. Don't try to flatter me. It won't help us secure the Miracle Card.""Oh, I'll investigate which influential figures are coming to the auction."Xena raised her hand to stop her. "No need to do t

Wendy's phone was turned off? Felix was baffled. Someone like Wendy would never turn off her phone or let it out of her sight, even for a moment. This was odd."Alright. Leave it to me. I'll make sure tomorrow night's dinner goes as planned. You just go ahead and make a reservation.""Haha! I knew I could count on you!"This was what true friendship meant. No matter Felix's status or connections, in Jack's eyes, he was simply his good buddy and nothing more. If something came up, they wouldn't hesitate to ask each other for help, and vice versa.Felix called Wendy, but once again, her phone was off. He frowned.When it was nearing noon, Felix drove his Range Rover out. Since Wendy's phone was still turned off, he decided to visit the Kinsley family.It was partly because of Jack's problem. Another part was because he was worried something might have happened to Wendy. After all, they had developed a certain level of friendship since getting to know each other.When he arrived at

When Felix parked his car, Wendy and Vincent were already waiting for him."What's going on here?"Felix got out of the car with a puzzled expression. Since nothing seemed wrong, why were all the guards stationed outside? And why did they have their phones turned off?Wendy looked embarrassed. Felix rarely contacted her, yet today of all days, he did, and it just happened to be the day they were auctioning off the Miracle Card. She felt awkward about bringing it up."Felix, there's… a bit of a misunderstanding here. Let's get inside, and I will explain?""Sure."A few minutes later, Felix had a strange expression on his face. "That's it?"Wendy nodded. "Yes. My father and grandfather were even worried that you might be upset."Felix chuckled and leaned back on the couch. "The Miracle Card has already been handed over to you. How you deal with it is up to you. Why would I be upset?"Hearing this, the members of the Kinsley family all breathed a sigh of relief. It truly would ha

"Felix, I beg you. Please help me. Take me to the Kinsley residence. Please," Xena begged.However, Felix shook his head. "I've already said it before. Your grandfather's illness can only be treated this way. Now, we still lack three kinds of herbs. Even if you invite the miracle doctor, there will still only be this treatment."Upon hearing that, Xena was enraged. There was a look of disappointment in her eyes. "Even if you're a member of Dragon Alliance, do you think you can control everything? Do you know everything? Felix, you need to be humble. "Now, I understand why you acted the way you did before. It's Dragon Alliance that you're proud of, isn't it? In Dragonia, there are factions greater than Dragon Alliance. Besides, you're only a member."When Xena saw how unbothered Felix was, she said, "Let me ask you. Are you chief or deputy chief of Dragon Alliance?""No.""The vice leader?""Nope."Felix was telling the truth. It was true that he didn't hold any of those positi

Felix looked to the side. He didn't know what car it was, but based on the current situation, it should be a luxury car. However, the person driving the vehicle was rude. People tended to act wildly nowadays, and that person's intention was obvious.Nevertheless, Yvonne didn't get angry. Instead, she squeezed out a smile. "Mr. Zimmerman, you're here too. I don't want to trouble you."Before stepping on the accelerator and speeding away, the man said, "It's rare for me to want to spend time with you. Sadly, you missed the chance."He was very arrogant and was extremely blunt. He didn't bother to hide his thoughts at all."Felix, he's George Zimmerman. He's a big shot from Yartford. You shouldn't offend him," Yvonne said.After getting into the car and advising Felix, Yvonne regretted her actions. They weren't in a romantic relationship, so why would he get angry because of what George said?"It seems that the auction this time has attracted the attention of many big shots."Yvonn

"Milady, look there. Why does Chain know Felix?" Belle whispered to Xena.Xena turned to look at them before turning back."Chain is friendly. Previously, the arrest happened in Felix's villa. Didn't you say it yourself? Felix showed up in the end. So, why is it strange?"Xena's words made sense. Belle glared at Felix. She felt uneasy. Although Felix's status in Dragon Alliance hadn't been confirmed, she hoped he didn't have another hidden side.After all, when Felix acquired the Phoenix Legion, he and Belle became enemies. Thus, she hoped that he, as her opponent, would be weaker.As time passed, the auction had begun. Bernard was hosting on the stage, but he didn't dare talk much. Since many people present were more affluent than the Kinsley family, it was most polite to keep it short."Thank you, everyone, for coming here. There's no need for cash to bid on the Miracle Card. I just hope that you all can write down how you can help the Kinsley family. We'll pick who can provide

Yvonne broke out of George's grasp and stepped back. Then, she shouted sternly, "Mr. Zimmerman, please calm down!"But George didn't care. Instead, he sat on the couch and gestured at her to come over. "I know you're a martial artist, so I won't force myself on you. Let me put it this way. "If you don't serve me well, what kind of outcome do you think you'll get based on my family's and my capability? Frankly, you're just a dog raised by someone else. Isn't it only a matter of seconds for her to abandon you when there are benefits to reap?"Yvonne's face turned pale. It was because whatever George said was the truth. Even her life belonged to Xena. When needed, Xena could use her at any time. For example, didn't Xena arrange for her to sleep with Felix previously?Right when Yvonne was feeling sad, the door opened, and Felix walked in."Yvonne, I've been looking for you. Come with me. I have something urgent to discuss with you."With a frown, George looked at him. "Get out!"F

Moonshadow Alliance? Felix frowned. He had never heard of such an alliance. What shocked him more was that the big shots were chatting loudly about it. Not even a single person discussed it quietly."This is my identity token. It's an identification method of Moonshadow Alliance that all of you know."Bernard turned around. His excitement was shown on his face. "H-Hold on for a moment!"While holding the identity token, Bernard quickly ran down the stage. He seemed to know how to determine whether it was real."Chain, what's Moonshadow Alliance? It seems powerful. Why doesn't anyone question it when the situation is related to the Miracle Card?"Chain, who was next to Felix, had a strange glint in his eyes. He realized that Felix didn't care about the outside world."Moonshadow Alliance is a mysterious alliance. I heard that it's on par with Dragon Alliance. Aside from that, it has always been overbearing. There's more detailed information, but it's kept a secret in our headquart

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
