The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 448
George's expression turned odd. He wondered how Dylan ended up going against Felix. Was he so bored with life that he was seeking death?"Dylan, you're way too full of yourself. Shut your mouth and don't ruin someone's engagement party. Seriously, you have no manners!" George said.Huh? Dylan hadn't expected George to stand up for Felix. His face darkened as he struggled to come up with a response.Felix didn't escalate the situation further. What was most important now was Madeline's engagement. Any incident would spoil the event, and this wasn't just some casual gathering.Sitting at the same table, Sean was full of disdain for Dylan. He talked big, but the moment George spoke up, he became quiet like a child.After a moment of silence, Dylan opened his mouth again. "I'll say this one last time! Felix, if you apologize to me now, for George's sake, I'll let this go. Otherwise…"Felix shot a sharp glance and cut him off, "No otherwise. I won't apologize, especially since I did n

Aside from George, Jack, and Vanessa, everyone else was stunned, gasping at Felix's audacity. Did he realize who he was talking to?Especially Dylan, who was elated internally. If Felix had only provoked him, he might get a broken arm or leg. But angering Fabian meant a completely different level of consequence.Terrance reacted quickly, rushing over. "Felix! What are you saying? Quickly apologize to Mr. Fabian."He tried to calm the situation by scolding Felix while smiling apologetically at Fabian. "Fabian, young people can be rude. Please don't mind them."Internally, he was anxious. Although he knew Felix and George were close, this was too reckless. Didn't Felix see that even George was staying silent?Terrance had thought Luke marrying Madeline would solidify their connection with George. Now, it seemed like a massive problem was brewing instead.Although this old classmate of his was no longer useful in providing benefits, they couldn't afford to turn him into an enemy.W

But wasn't it a bit too unbelievable? Fabian, the president of Lionsfield Chamber of Commerce, was a significant figure in Yartford. Otherwise, how could Dylan have spoken to George that way? Yet here he was, treating Felix with the utmost respect and even promising Dylan would no longer speak for life. Terrance wouldn't have believed it if he hadn't witnessed it himself."F-Felix, our family bears some responsibility for what happened," Terrance said again.His tone was respectful to the extreme. If anyone dared to mistreat his future daughter-in-law, Madeline, he would deal with them himself."It's me who should be apologizing for disrupting the engagement," Felix replied.Sean, who had been anxiously watching, quickly interjected, "Felix, what are you talking about? There was no disturbance at all.""Exactly! No disturbance! Everything is proceeding as normal."As the engagement ceremony resumed, George remained silent, deep in thought. Why would Fabian fear Felix? Logic

Only one man entered the room. He seemed to be in his 40s and was impeccably dressed. He even wore a subtle smile that did nothing to diminish his overwhelming presence. The entire banquet hall fell silent at his arrival. Felix frowned. "What's going on?" George's eyes widened in recognition as he said, "Well, well... I can't believe Lilian had the nerve! Five years after the Starlight incident, someone cleverly tried to pull one over on Lady Nala. The bastard actually succeeded and fled overseas. "Now that Alfie's shown up, they must have caught him. Looks like it's time for everyone involved to face the music." As he spoke, Lilian cowered behind Terrance with a trembling voice. "It wasn't me, Mr. McDonald. You've got the wrong person, I swear!"Alfie stood motionless. His smile was unwavering as he slowly raised his right hand. "Will you come with me, or should I make you? The outcomes of your decision would be quite different." Terrance swallowed hard before stepping forw
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 452
No matter how capable Felix was, he could not possibly defeat Nala. Madeline could not let her family drama ruin her first love and life savior. But Alfie's smile faded as he studied Felix. "You're Mr. Felix Zeller, right? Since you've spoken up, there may be room for negotiation. Lady Nala owes you a favor from the orphanage incident. But are you sure you want to waste it on someone like Lilian? After all, a favor from Lady Nala is invaluable." The revelation that Nala owed Felix a favor stunned everyone. Lilian saw a glimmer of hope and collapsed at Felix's feet, sobbing, "Felix, please save me! I don't want to die!" When he remained silent, she turned to Madeline. "Please, Maddy. Help me convince him. I was deceived! I never would've dared cross Lady Nala!" Madeline did not hesitate at all. How could she possibly let Felix waste such a precious favor? But he spoke first before she could, "Let Lilian go." Alfie nodded. "Very well. Consider Lady Nala's debt settled, then

Ernest's eyes narrowed as he studied Felix, which made Felix feel embarrassed. "You want to attend Xena's appointment ceremony?" Seeing Felix nod, Ernest suddenly laughed before saying, "No." Felix was baffled. Given their relationship, this should have been a simple request. "I can't betray Sherlyn like that. She'd never forgive me for helping her rival." Ernest chuckled, showing his playful side while Jairo watched in amusement."Mr. Holt Senior, you've got it wrong. I'm just curious about the ceremony." "Really? I've been around long enough to know better. Are you saying there's nothing between you and Xena?"Felix fell silent. He did not want to lie to the old man. "Goodbye, then." Watching as Ernest walked away, Felix felt helpless. Left with no choice, Felix called Hector after getting home. He needed to attend the ceremony. He had to signal Xena about Madam Spring's situation and save his own life. Their relationship had been tough from the start, with simple
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 454
"Mr. Holt Senior, how did you know he would attend? His connections must be limited now," Jairo said."True. Felix lost his martial powers, and his medical skills have dwindled. But I think he isn't as simple as he appeared to be. Look. He managed to get in." Jairo was impressed. This was not some ordinary party. It was an official ceremony that only people connected to the authorities could attend, yet Felix had secured entry effortlessly.…Xena's appointment ceremony was being held at the Wolfie troops' base. The guards stopped Felix's car when he arrived. "Hello, I'm here for the ceremony." "ID please." The guard took it but radioed instead of checking the list. "Lady Leia, Mr. Zeller has arrived. Please verify." After that, he turned to Felix. "Please step out and wait for Lady Leia's verification." "Alright!" Someone was sent over to drive Felix's car away, so he stood at the side waiting. Right then, a Bentley arrived. The guard went over to verify their identitie

Dissatisfied, Aimee turned to look at whoever was speaking. When she saw the elegant woman addressing Felix, she became even more upset. She started to speak but stopped when she saw the soldiers saluting Leia. This was Wolfie troops' territory, after all. Still, she memorized Leia's face. If she could not handle this, Xena certainly could. This was Xena's big day being crowned as Warlady, so no outsiders were allowed. Even Aimee was here only because she was a relative. How did Felix get in? Someone must have broken protocol. "You must be Leia, right?" Leia studied Felix. His reputation preceded him. This young man who had earned even Hector's respect had truly hidden his power well. "Yes. Please follow me." Inside, Leia said, "Lord Hector is with important guests. He suggested you wait in the waiting room." Felix raised his hand. "It's okay. Let Mr. Downy handle his business. I'm just here for the ceremony. We can always catch up another time." Felix knew better than t

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
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1559
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
