Semua Bab The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection: Bab 611 - Bab 620

When Felix emerged from the lab, the entire place was engulfed in flames. Not a single child had survived—not even the one who had been bleeding horribly. Despite his efforts, he could not save any of them.The horrors he had witnessed pushed Felix past his breaking point. In his mind, the entire Polaris leadership had to be complicit in this horror. These people did not deserve to live—every extra day they drew breath was an insult to the children who had suffered and died. Even in the storm of his emotions, Felix stayed focused. He pulled out his phone and called Seven. He said, "Seven, I need intel on every single Polaris higher-ups. And inform Averill."Polaris was not just any organization. Ranked as the fifth most powerful sect in Dragonia, its influence and strength were undeniable, and its remote desert location made it even more impenetrable. Unlike other sects nestled in serene mountains far from civilization, Polaris thrived in the harsh wilderness. According to the se

Within minutes, the deputy sect leader burst into the hall, his face a mix of panic and fury. "This is madness!" Yates shot as he slammed his palm on the table, rising to his feet in a thunderous rage. He had assumed this was just some reckless troublemaker causing a scene, but to hear that even the sect leader could not handle the situation? That was an insult he could not bear."Stay seated, gentlemen. I'll handle this personally," Yates growled, disappearing in a flash before anyone could respond.Uzziah rose from his seat, glancing at the others. "Let's go take a look. I can tell you're all as curious as I am." Titus and Thaddeus did not hesitate, quickly following behind. There was no way they would miss seeing who dared to provoke Polaris to the point where even Yates had to step in.…When Yates arrived at the training ground outside, his expression instantly darkened. The sect leader, deputy leader, and a group of elders were all sprawled across the ground, barely cli

"More than 200 lives! And they were children! When you sleep at night, do their restless souls never come to haunt you?" Felix's voice boomed, each word sharp as a blade.Yates staggered back several steps, his face pale as a sheet. His gaze swept across the fallen sect members, none of whom dared meet his eyes. Only the sect leader, overwhelmed with guilt, broke into sobs as he choked out an explanation. "W-We did it to save the sect! Ten years ago, something crippled all of Polaris' businesses. We barely had enough money to keep the sect running for six months. "Without resorting to desperate measures, Polaris would have crumbled. We had no other choice!" Yates closed his eyes tightly as tears streaked down his face, his heart breaking at the revelation. For years, he had focused solely on his martial pursuits, oblivious to the horrors hidden beneath the surface.Titus, Uzziah, and Thaddeus were equally stunned. None of them could have imagined that a prestigious sect like Po

Mira's personality was similar to Averill's, but she was not as shamelessly bold as the latter.Mira smirked and added, "What's wrong? Were you expecting that little tramp, Averill? "Oh, don't act surprised. After she slept with you, she bragged about it in front of all of us! I ended up smacking her until she cried, which made the rest of us feel a little better." While Mira and Felix caught up, Titus, Uzziah, and Thaddeus stood frozen in disbelief. They never expected Felix to have a backup, let alone someone powerful enough to casually block Saylor's terrifying attack with nothing but an umbrella.It seemed that every genius had a hidden ace up their sleeve. Saylor, however, sneered as he watched the interaction. He thought, "Oh, I see now. No wonder this kid wasn't scared. He had someone in the shadows all along."Even though he had not detected Mira earlier, Saylor remained unfazed. His confidence remained unshaken, and he believed she probably just used an advanced conce

Axel also adopted an unusually serious demeanor. "I don't know, but I heard Mr. Uzziah has emerged from seclusion."The young man's eyes widened in surprise. "Mr. Uzziah? Wow, Uzziah hasn't shown his face in years!"If he's coming out now and summoning everyone, something big must be happening. Could it be due to the leadership shift in the Eight Great Martial Families?" Axel frowned and shook his head. "I doubt it. Mason is a prodigy, sure, but he's not yet a big enough deal to bring Uzziah out. He still has a long way to go."Despite being just one level below Mason, crossing the first threshold from Ultimate Mortal Realm to Innate Realm was a challenge that had defeated countless so-called geniuses, including Axel himself.Meanwhile, the Crayden elders were also speculating about the situation. "Sir, do you know what's going on?" one of them asked cautiously. At the head of the gathering stood Augustus, the current patriarch of the Crayden family, flanked by several elder
