The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 281 - チャプター 290

The traffic situation in Yartford being terrible was common knowledge. Hence, Felix immediately said, "As long as it doesn't delay my participation in the competition, we can head to your place first. I hope you know that I mean it sincerely."Howard couldn't help but feel moved by that. Instead of continuing straight, he immediately made a right turn. "Mr. Zeller, thank you, really. My family is in serious trouble, but I promise it won't delay you.""Where's your home?" Felix asked. After getting an answer, he sent out a quick message on WhatsApp. He certainly didn't want this situation to cause any delays. About half an hour later, they pulled into an older residential area. The neighborhood clearly showed its age, with cars parked everywhere. Only older complexes from back in the day lacked planned parking spaces."Mr. Zeller, please wait here. I'll head up and deal with this," Howard said before entering the building nearby. Felix got out of the car as well, and less than a mi

"Shut up!" Zara snapped at Liam, her patience finally worn thin. Since meeting Felix, she had sensed something exceptional about him—a feeling that he wouldn't be easily defeated. She had tried to maintain her focus, preparing herself for the toughest challenge. However, Liam's repeated interruptions had tested her limits. Hence, she was genuinely angry.Seeing that his attempts to ingratiate himself had backfired, Liam quickly zipped his mouth and shook his head, signaling that he would keep quiet.At that moment, Felix flicked three silver needles, which flew precisely into Howard's acupoints. Howard instantly closed his eyes, his expression turning to intense relaxation and enjoyment."That's it?" Even though Liam had vowed to stay silent, he couldn't help but stifle a laugh, his expression twisting with amusement.However, Zara suddenly strode over to Howard and observed him closely. After a moment, she inhaled sharply and opened her eyes in disbelief."Oh my God! How is thi

"I am also withdrawing!" Liam declared.After witnessing Felix's use of the Pierce of Trinity firsthand, Liam had no objections to his skill, so he saw no point in continuing the competition.With Liam and Zara withdrawing, the other eager participants hesitated. After a moment, they each followed suit and withdrew as well. After all, if they couldn't even defeat Zara, they stood no chance against Felix. It was better to step back than risk embarrassment in such a crowd.The turn of events didn't surprise William. He then turned his attention to the burly man who had initially voiced objections."What do you think?" William asked.The man had a displeased expression. "Hmph! I seriously question the intentions behind these nominations! How can you expect such a bunch of weaklings to represent our country? "It's laughable that they lack even the courage to compete, yet they dare to call themselves the best young practitioners in traditional medicine!"Liam was irritated by the re

After a moment of hesitation, Felix agreed to exchange contact information with Zara."I live in Avesburgh," he said.With his details in hand, Zara smiled sweetly as she watched him enter a taxi."I've met an interesting person, sir. It's the first time since leaving the mountain that I've been defeated by someone my age," Zara muttered.…Felix soon arrived at a bustling commercial street in Yartford. He couldn't help but marvel at the sight. There was a small, 20-square-yard pasta shop with a long line of customers. People were eating their pasta while standing or squatting all around."Indeed, when one door closes, another opens. It's just a matter of time."This pasta shop belonged to Madeline. Despite its tiny size, its prime location in the city meant that the annual rent was a steep one million dollars. While a price might be unreasonable in a place like Avesburgh, it was apparently worth it in Yartford."Felix, you're here," Madeline greeted him warmly as she stepped o

Lilian slammed her hand on the table, fury radiating from her."Are you an idiot? A woman like her is fine for a fling, but marrying her? Do you think Mom and Dad would ever agree to that? Absolutely not!"After saying that, she turned her gaze to Madeline. It was clear she understood Luke's character."Listen carefully, Madeline, if you truly love my brother, then stop pestering him! You know what kind of person you are."At that moment, Felix finally spoke up. "It's true that Maddy worked as a hostess in a karaoke bar. That's undeniable, and I believe she wouldn't try to argue against it. But everyone deserves a chance, don't they? "Maddy's father left her with a heavy debt, and she had to take this job to pay it off as quickly as possible. She has maintained her integrity. She was just a hostess and didn't do anything inappropriate."He walked over and patted Luke on the shoulder, continuing, "I'm saying all this because I think your character is worth defending. At least Mad
