"Felix, you didn't tell me that the battle was this grand!" Dickson was startled by the crowd at the scene. He turned and saw Felix smiling bitterly. "I didn't know this either. She only said it was in Denverville Arena. I didn't expect it to be so grand."Although Felix had participated in martial arts competitions in the capital, those who attended were famous figures. Unlike now, the arena was packed full of people."You're on your own now. I'll be watching you from the crowd," Dickson said.The two of them had been communicating with each other in whispers. Dickson quickly blended into the crowd. He didn't want to be noticed by anyone.Felix sighed—what else could he do at this point? He could only bite the bullet. When he reached the high platform, Nala came up to meet him. It was only then she realized something. "I'm sorry, Felix. I forgot how much you hate these types of scenes."Felix smiled and waved her off dismissively. "It's okay, I promised you anyway. I'll defi

On the only empty viewing platform, Zayn took a seat with only one other person. Joanna and Howie immediately stood up and saluted. "Oh! The sixth prince came just to see me?" Joanna had always wanted to marry into the royal family, and she liked the sixth prince a lot. Her family had also tried to match them up several times—but there was no clear connection."Don't think about it too much. As far as I know, Zayn has been quite active recently, and he has been going in and out of the four major cities," Howie explained to Joanna. Still, she didn't get angry."It's fine. There's still plenty of time for us to get together. One day, the sixth prince will notice me," she said.Zayn was in a good mood as he sat down. He had initially planned to leave Denverville—but since he heard that the Hughmans and Yorkers were fighting, he came to take a look out of boredom.However, no matter where he turned, Felix caught his eye! "Felix!" Zayn gritted his teeth. The only time he was humil

The sun finally set, but Denverville was lit up, and the arena was as bright as day. Most of the lights were around the arena—covering every corner."Felix, please." Nala turned toward Felix, a tear falling down her cheek.When he saw this, he said solemnly, "You will be Nala Hughman from now on." They took a deep breath, stood up, and walked forward in sync. At this point, everyone standing below could see them clearly.Nala slowly took off her veil, and the black and red scabs on her face were displayed in front of an audience for the first time. There was a hiss as everyone took a sharp breath of air. Some even covered their eyes!It was truly terrifying. No matter how beautiful Nala's eyes were, they couldn't overshadow the scars on her face. Even looking at her for over a few seconds would upset the audience.Nala was suffering from pure humiliation as she stood there. On the other hand, Joanna was laughing so hard she could barely cover her mouth. This had all been agreed

"Hahaha! He's in the early-stage of the Transcendent Realm! Natalie, didn't you say this guy was a good alchemist?" Ezra remarked.Natalie was also dumbfounded. "I don't know—but he's still overestimating himself. Howie is actually in the middle-stage of the Transcendent Realm."The battle continued, and Howie was already feeling much more relaxed. Since Felix was also in the Transcendent Realm, he didn't need to hide his power. In this case, accidentally killing him on the shot would be the best expression."What do you think about what your sister did?" As the two fought, Felix telepathically talked to Howie."What do 'you' think? In Martial City, strength is respected. Nala's only fault was the she was too trusting."Felix sneered. "Then what if this was reversed, and the one in such a state was Joanna?"This was a clear example of Howie's double standards. "Hahaha! That's true—but I would kill Nala, and no one could stop it!"Felix understood what he meant, and no more wor

Joanna was speechless. It wasn't just her—the entire arena was silent. After all, they were all from Denverville. They all knew Howie was in the middle stage of the Transcendent Realm. On the other hand, Felix was unknown and unheard of. However, he still came out victorious. Thus, how could they not be shocked?Nala held back her excitement and stretched out her right hand. She wasn't worried that Joanna would go back on her word. And that was exactly the case. If Joanna refused to hand over the antidote, everyone present would know that she accepted defeat publicly. If she broke her promise now, the reputation of the Yorkers would crash and burn into the ground—her family would never let her go.Fuck! Where and how did Nala find Felix? Her reputation had been dragged through mud, yet she was still so favored by the powerful Felix? God was truly unfair.Joanna gnashed her teeth and tossed a pill at Nala. She sneered. "So what if I gave it to you? Nala, you've fallen far behind
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1042
"Felix… I… Am I really not worthy enough to be your wife? Not even as just a lover?"Felix patted Nala's back helplessly. He said, "I've already agreed to marry Nerissa. When it comes to you or Xena, maybe it's best to stay as friends."Nerissa! Nala was shocked, but then a self-deprecating smile formed on her face. "Turns out Nerissa was the woman chosen by your mother… You're right—what's lost is lost. "Whether it was me or Xena, it's our own fault. If we had half of Nerissa's determination and loyalty, maybe we wouldn't have ended up like this."Felix didn't respond. What had happened had happened. No amount of words could change it now. "I'm leaving now." As soon as he took a step, Nala remembered something. "Wait a second, Felix.""Is there something else you want to tell me?" Her expression turned solemn. "Aiden came to see me a month ago."Aiden! This wasn't something Felix expected. How dare Aiden show up so brazenly?"The plan was to set you up in exchange for

"What's wrong?" Dickson asked.Felix thought for a while before sighing helplessly. "It's nothing. Let's go."Kevin was surely a master of Transcendent Realm. Even if Felix used Lone Paragon, he wouldn't be able to win against him. Besides, Dickson had just entered the late stage of Transcendent Realm. Even if they worked together, it wouldn't do much, and they would likely be killed. It wasn't worth it. Besides, it was clear that they were going opposite ways. After running for a while, the intense feeling disappeared.Despite that, Felix and Dickson returned to North City safely. Laura was the most excited to see Felix again. She was the only one who had believed he wasn't dead. After all, there was a connection between them. If Felix had died, Laura would've died as well. However, since she couldn't tell Deborah about this, she could only pray that Felix would come back soon.In the following days, everything had returned to normal. Felix followed Deborah and completely focu

For the past six months, Felix had almost never left the house, let alone North City. Everyone who knew him could only stare helplessly.All of a sudden, Nellie's phone rang. She frowned after listening to the call. "Felix, the front desk said that the sixth prince, Zayn, wants to see you."The sixth prince? Felix thought about it and then replied, "Alright. I'll come over."Deborah nodded. She knew that the two of them had grudges, but so what? Even if Zayn was a royal, he was also required to follow the rules. Besides, Felix was now in the middle stage of Transcendent Realm. Thus, it wouldn't be easy to kill him, either.Felix arrived at a café in Rosewood. Only Zayn sat on the entire second floor of the establishment."Felix! You're about to take the advanced pill assessment, right? Well, with your skills, there shouldn't be any hiccups. Congratulations!"Felix was confused.What was Zayn up to? While there was only a conflict between them, he knew that Zayn wasn't someone

"Gosh!"Everyone was absolutely shocked. They knew Felix was a great alchemist, but none of them took him for a fearsome martial artist. In less than a minute, he managed to heavily injure four assailants who mastered Transcendent Realms. Felix didn't dare to waste more time. He was about to leave Corpse Town, but a figure stood in his way. "It's a good thing I made it in time." The person's shoes faded away into ashes as he spoke. Then, he stood on the ground with his bare feet. "I decided to wear out one of my pseudo-magical artifacts to stop you, Felix. Looks like I made the right call. I almost let you slip through my fingers again." Felix frowned slightly and retorted coldly, "What makes you think you have what it takes to stop me, Aiden?"He hadn't expected to see Aiden right now. More shockingly, the latter exuded the overwhelming aura of someone who had mastered Transcendent Realm. How could that have been possible, though? Felix was able to make the breakthrough
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1079
Four martial artists with mastery over Transcendent Realm rushed out of the crowd and charged right at Felix. At the same time, a voice boomed, and everyone heard what it said. "Felix tried and failed to kill a member of the royals. His Majesty has decreed that he is found guilty and sentenced him to death. Anyone who dares to help Felix will be held accountable for."One of the royals?At the next moment, Felix initiated Lone Paragon and stood before the four assailants. The others backed off hastily. They were afraid that they would become hapless victims of a battle of this scale. "Mr. Whitwell!" Deborah felt her heart clench up. She looked at Ezra anxiously, but he merely sighed and shook his head. "No one would dare to help Felix now, Madam Goddard."As expected, Andre and Shepherd remained where they stood. The other martial artists who mastered the Transcendent Realm and promised to protect Felix also didn't dare to move at all. "You've all let me down!" Deborah was e

With the Destiny Crystal in his hands, Felix should've been the fastest person to master Ethereal Constitution. However, not even he knew exactly how long it would take. Naturally, that meant he couldn't keep staying in Corpse Town. After all, Deborah was waiting for him out there. He couldn't just think of himself. After he paid with the pills he had just created, Felix intended to tell everyone about his plan. At the next moment, however, Cordelia suddenly appeared behind him. A loud thud could be heard. She actually reached out and struck someone in the palm. She had suddenly shown up to protect Felix."This is bad. This man exuded the aura of someone who had mastered Transcendent Realm, but he suddenly became as strong as I am for some reason."Felix turned around, and his expression immediately changed. "Grand Elder!"That was right. His assailant was the Grand Elder, who had gone off the radar for a long time. However, something troubled Felix. The Grand Elder might've

Celestial Hall? This was the first time Felix heard about it. "What's the deal with Celestial Hall? No one has talked about them at all," he said.A mix of emotions flashed in Cordelia's eyes. "Only the royals are privy to its existence. Moreover, only direct descendants of the royal bloodline know about it, such as the Emperor and Princes. The other royal members are oblivious to it."Cordelia chuckled bitterly. "You are my son, and I am the most powerful fighter alive. By all means, you would've been able to have your way in the world. However, Celestial Hall is the source of my bondage."The royals would have a descendant with the highest fighting prowess every few generations. The ladies would become Empresses, and the men would become Emperors. "Neither of them could stay after their descendant was born. They would be forced into retirement, and Celestial Hall would become their new home."What? Felix was absolutely dumbfounded. "Are you saying that Celestial Hall housed
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1076
Having the highest fighting prowess would make a lady in the royal family an Empress and the man an Emperor. Neither of them was allowed to get married and have children. After all, their descendants would never have that kind of talent in cultivation anymore. Now, however, Cordelia had a child. "I've said what needs to be said. Farewell." Aiden turned around and was about to leave. The Emperor suddenly snarled icily, "Stand right there! Do you think I will let you live after you reveal such a secret?"To everyone's surprise, Aiden was unfazed. "Firstly, I wouldn't have shown up here if I didn't have the confidence to walk out of here safely. Secondly, I told you about the secret because I have bad blood with Felix. "Lastly, let's assume that I do spread this information out there. You have to ask yourself this—who would dare to listen to me, and who will actually believe me?"Can I leave now?"The Emperor waved with a cold expression. The three points Aiden raised were flaw

A day passed, and as Felix stepped out of the courtyard, he was immediately taken aback.The base of Trirock Mountain now had a sea of people, stretching as far as the eye could see. Even more late-stage Transcendent Realm experts had arrived."Nala, here are seven Ascension Pills. Keep them safe," he said.Nala accepted the box and, without hesitation, opened it in front of everyone. The seven pills inside gleamed in the light—genuine, without a doubt.For a moment, the gathered crowd was ablaze with excitement. This was unexpected—there should have only been six pills. This confirmed beyond a doubt that Felix's pill success rate was incredibly high.Dickson had already arranged everything with Laura, ensuring that the distribution process was orderly. There was no chance of chaos or disputes breaking out.Among the crowd, Barry was given a shove. "Go on, Barry! Just one Ascension Pill, and our Lufter family will rise again!"Barry's expression was dark with frustration. His fa

In truth, Zayn was lying. The wooden craving indeed blocked sound, but if someone held its paired counterpart, they could eavesdrop on the conversation. And that counterpart was in the hands of Josiah, the elderly man accompanying him."The fact that His Majesty values my talents is a great honor," Felix said with a polite smile. "However, I've always lived freely, and it was Harmony Clinic that nurtured me. I'm afraid I cannot accept the offer."Zayn was inwardly pleased—this wasn't even something he had to lead Felix into saying."You don't have to worry about Harmony Clinic," Zayn continued smoothly. "We can persuade Mr. Whitwell. As long as you're willing, it's not an obstacle."Felix, let me be honest with you—no matter how much you've seen or heard about the power of the royal family, it's just the tip of the iceberg. If you join us, you'll receive the highest level of treatment—even above us princes."And surely, you've heard of the Empress? The strongest force in Martial C
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1073
Everyone remained on high alert, but within a minute, eight late-stage Transcendent Realm experts appeared, arriving from different directions and in no particular order."Relax, I'm not here to cause trouble," one of them said with a smirk. "I heard that Mr. Zeller welcomes all late-stage Transcendent Realm experts and offers an Ascension Pill every two months. Is that true?"The others immediately chimed in with agreement. It turned out they had all come to be bodyguards, almost leading to an unnecessary misunderstanding. The timing was just too coincidental—eight experts arriving simultaneously was bound to raise suspicion.Hearing this, Felix chuckled. "Of course. If you place your trust in me, my promise stands."Whether some secretly worked for the royal family didn't matter. Felix was no longer someone who could be easily crushed. If anyone tried anything, he could kill them without hesitation. Besides, the first ten experts he had recruited were mostly people he already k

"Sorry, Nerissa. I keep breaking my promises to you, again and again," Felix said.Inside the courtyard, Nerissa sat beside Felix, gently shaking her head. "Don't say that. The royal family is watching from the shadows. Until this crisis is resolved, we won't have a moment of peace.Felix knew how understanding she was. He reached out and brushed her cheek, his gaze full of warmth."By the way, still no news from Westley?""Yeah. He's probably dead by now."Her words were blunt, but after nearly two years without any news, death was the most likely reality.Fortunately, Felix had emerged as her husband, or Westley, the patriarch of the Xavier family, would have been unable to hold his position any longer. However, with the royal family problem still unresolved, there was still an uneasy sense of impending disaster."Felix, your first guest has arrived."From outside, Deborah's voice came through.Felix rose, bringing Nerissa along. Since he was now in open conflict with the ro
