The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1089
For martial artists who reached the Transcendent Realm, the first three years were crucial for growth. After that period, their strength would be practically set. Hence, that phase determined the gap between those at the same level.Cordelia, for example, had attained her current level of power three years after reaching the Transcendent Realm. Given how things are unfolding, Felix only needed six months after activating Lone Paragon to reach his current strength. It was highly likely that he could reach her level as well.However, before he could dwell on these thoughts, a phone call from Xena completely disrupted his focus.To be honest, Felix was caught off guard. This was a phone exclusively used in Martial City. If Xena hadn't saved her number on his phone before he entered Martial City and mentioned that she might contact him one day, he would have never believed it."You entered Martial City?" Felix asked, puzzled. Xena wasn't someone who could just waltz into Martial City f

"The reason that creature suddenly lashed out so violently was because of the formation covering Martial City," Xena explained. "Based on my observations, this formation prevents Malevolent Phantoms from entering. That old man only got in because someone deliberately used a token to bring him inside. Even though he made it through, the formation still affected him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have killed so openly like you described."Malevolent Phantoms were already difficult to deal with, and intelligent Malevolent Phantoms were even worse. But that raised a bigger question. How were they created?"Since you've already taken care of it, I can at least report that much," Xena continued. "Felix, I really hope you can finish your mission soon. The capital desperately needs the warriors of Martial City to step in."With that, the call ended. Felix hadn't gained much new information, so all he could do was continue following his plan.After arriving at Misty Ridge, Felix immediately sens

"Averill, I can assure you, your cycle is perfectly normal."In the courtyard of Tranquil Clinic in Eden Village, Felix Zeller slowly lifted his right hand with a look of helplessness.Before him stood six beautiful women, each with a unique charm. They were smiling as they patiently waited in line."But Felix, I don't feel well. Why don't you come to my room and do a thorough checkup?" Averill Davis said suggestively.Felix smiled wryly.Ever since his mentor, Gerald Hoffman, brought him to this village three years ago, he had faced constant teasing from these women, his fellow apprentices.Although he had gotten used to it, it was still tough to handle, especially when they were so alluring."Averill, don't push your luck.""Exactly! It's my turn now. Step aside. Don't even dream about having Felix all by yourself."As Leslie Brown sat in front of him, Felix sighed and pleaded, "Please, can't you all be more like Eloise, Dahlia, and Karina? Focus on your training and stop wa

By the time Felix stepped out of his room, everyone was already gone. With his departure, his fellow apprentices likely wouldn't stay in Eden Village either.Thinking about it made Felix fume. Three years ago, Gerald had brought him here and then disappeared without a trace. It was utterly irresponsible of him.The sounds of knocking pulled Felix from his thoughts.He looked up to see several unfamiliar faces standing at the courtyard gate. Even though the gate was open, they hadn't entered, showing some degree of politeness.Felix walked over and noticed a few Mercedes G-Wagons parked outside the clinic. Evidently, these were wealthy individuals."Excuse me. Is the miracle doctor here?" asked a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses, looking very refined. His name was Vincent Kinsley."The miracle doctor left this place almost three years ago."Vincent's face fell. The miracle doctor was a legend in Dragonia's medical world. He was their last hope, and now, he was gone.Besi

While Xena loved Curtis dearly and had tried every means to cure him, a troubling thought crept into her mind: she hoped he wouldn't wake up at this moment.That was because Felix was insufferable. Not only was he useless, but he also dared to act superior in front of a goddess of war like her. He clearly had no idea who he was dealing with.Felix didn't respond to her condescending remarks. Instead, he rushed over to check Curtis' pulse, his expression growing serious. "It's the Phantom Poison. No wonder."Xena frowned. "Are you saying Grandpa's been poisoned?""That's right. It's the most potent Phantom Poison there is. If it had been detected earlier, I could have neutralized it immediately. But it's been over a year, and it has become more complicated."We need some rare herbs to treat it. Thankfully, the master healers you contacted did a decent job. Though they couldn't remove the poison, they managed to keep him alive."Xena's expression twisted with a mix of emotions. "Lo

"Please, Dr. Fielding! Save my father. I'll give anything!" Vincent pleaded desperately.Bernard's life was crucial for the family, and as his son, Vincent was willing to do whatever it took.Xander sighed. "Your father will not make it through the night. But since I'm here, you have another option. I can extend his life by a month. Decide quickly."Before Vincent could respond, Bernard croaked out with great struggle, "D-Do it."Vincent quickly agreed. Prolonging Bernard's life for a month was better than losing him now.Meanwhile, Wendy had slipped out of the room, looking visibly torn as she held her phone. She remembered the phone number Felix had given them earlier that day due to her sharp memory."Grandpa, I'll do anything for you," she murmured, her face set with determination.…At a certain residential area in Avesburgh, Felix stood in front of a three-story villa, feeling a mix of emotions. It had been three years since he last saw Warren Quinton.Warren had been hi
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 5
The Quintons turned to Felix, each with different emotions. Warren felt an inexplicable excitement, whereas Nattie's and Sasha's faces were full of contempt."Felix, you've really learned a thing or two in the past three years," Nattie remarked, her tone dripping with sarcasm despite the seemingly complimentary words."A Rolls-Royce? Felix, you're amazing. I bet a helicopter will come pick you up the next time," Sasha chimed in with blatant mockery."Uncle Warren, I'll visit you again," Felix said, ignoring their words. He had more pressing matters, as the person with the Miracle Card required immediate aid.As Warren saw Felix out, Nattie and Sasha reluctantly followed. Their expressions shifted slightly upon seeing the Rolls-Royce Phantom parked at the gate, but they remained unimpressed."Are you Mr. Felix Zeller?" asked a man in a tailored suit and white gloves. He was Marco Jensen, the Kinsley family's chauffeur.Upon Felix's confirmation, Marco opened the car door for him a

Although Wendy and Vincent might not have understood the full extent of what was happening, the sight of the arrogant Xander sprawled on the floor in shock made them realize Felix was the real deal."Remove the needles in an hour. Your grandfather will wake up tomorrow fully recovered," Felix stated before turning to leave.He was here solely to fulfill Gerald's duty concerning the Miracle Card."Pierce of Trinity… My God, I can't believe I witnessed the Pierce of Trinity."Snapping back to reality, Vincent quickly nudged Wendy. "Go after him!"Then, he helped Xander to his feet and asked, "What's the Pierce of Trinity?""It's one of the most miraculous acupuncture techniques in traditional medicine," Xander explained instinctively. "The Pierce of Trinity can cure most ailments. Though it has been passed down, very few can perform it. I've practiced for five years and still haven't mastered it."Reflecting on Bernard's condition and the placement of the three needles, Xander h

"This guy's cultivation technique is just a little strange, nothing special," Laura said.After relaying Felix's telepathy message, she stepped back. Her words had the intended effect. Everyone let out a sigh of relief. If more of those kinds of monsters started appearing, who could possibly stand against them?Though the situation had finally settled down, Felix wasn't the least bit happy. While his own troubles had just ended, the ordeal was completely unexpected. Logically, he still believed in the Phaeron Codex. After all, he had been practicing it himself and understood its power. If what was written in it was true, then there was no way for any of the wraiths to leave Corpse Town. So how did that old man get out?He decided not to dwell on it for now, as he had his own path to walk first.A few days later, in Imperial City, the Emperor and his sons sat in gloomy silence, staring at the three Celestial Royals standing at the forefront."You all saw what happened at the foot
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1087
"Make way!""Mr. Zeller is here!""Yeah, step aside!"The open space where Felix had previously confronted the three Celestial Royals remained empty. However, panic filled the air. Two bodies lay motionless on the ground. Although there were no visible wounds, the bodies were utterly still."Mom! What happened?"Cordelia pointed toward the only man still standing in the middle of the clearing. His lower body had been blasted apart. However, fresh flesh was already regenerating at an eerily incredible speed. At this rate, he'd be fully healed in less than five seconds."We're not sure. He suddenly attacked the two people lying on the ground. No one saw exactly how it happened, and then it turned into this mess."From what Cordelia explained, the man had erupted in violence without warning. The relatives of the deceased had immediately retaliated, unleashing a furious assault. They managed to destroy most of his body. However, he wouldn't die. His flesh kept regrowing, which was a

Felix was taken aback. "You can sense when I'm in danger?""Yes," Zara nodded. "Ever since we did the deed, there's been this indescribable bond between us. If you're ever in real danger, no matter where you are, I can feel it. Like last time, and this time too."Felix finally understood. Although there had been many dangerous situations, Zara had only appeared in these two, meaning the threat must have been severe.If he had really used Lumen to kill the three Celestial Royals, would he have fallen into darkness? If not, why else would Zara have shown up at that critical moment?"Why couldn't you kill those three?" he asked.Zara explained, "I've only just gained the upper hand. Right now, the Twinshade Body still controls 40% of me, while I hold 60% percent. If I were to use a stronger power, the Twinshade Body would immediately seize the opportunity to counterattack. "All my efforts so far would be wasted, and I can't say for sure if I'd be able to regain control again. But i

"Felix! If you have the guts, let's settle this another day. One final battle!" Aiden cried.Upon seeing Felix close in, Aiden panicked. He wasn't a match for Felix to begin with. Now, with Zara watching like a predator, he knew that if he got caught, death was inevitable.Felix replied, "Funny. You came here to kill me, and now you're asking for a rain check? You think I have all the time in the world for this?"He knew this feud had to end today."You spared the royals because they share the same bloodline as your mother. I, Aiden, am your father's nephew. Why can't you spare me too?" Aiden asked.Felix only responded with a cold laugh. Did he look like someone who spared enemies out of kindness? The only reason he let those three old bastards go was because he had no choice.When Zara had walked up to him slowly, she had been transmitting messages to him via telepathy the whole time.According to her, she only had enough strength left for one attack. And even then, she couldn

"Zara," Felix called out.Upon hearing Felix call her name, Zara turned to him with a sweet smile."What is it, honey?"Felix gestured toward Cordelia. "This is my mother."Any other daughter-in-law would have been nervous, perhaps even overwhelmed with anxiety at this moment. But Zara? She simply looked at Felix with the same cheerful expression and responded with a single word, "Oh."Her reaction confirmed what Gerald had once told Felix. Once Zara had fully suppressed the Twinshade Body, she would only recognize Felix. Nothing and no one else would matter to her.Seeing that Zara had stopped her attack, the three Celestial Royals let out a breath of relief, knowing they had just barely escaped death's grasp. While they were still shaken up, the Grand Elder and Aiden were petrified. Zara's sudden arrival had completely upended their expectations. It was an unforeseen twist that caught them completely off guard."Mom, what's wrong?"With a complicated expression, Cordelia gl

No one knew when the woman had arrived, but there she was. She appeared gracefully, her steps light as air. Dressed simply in a flowing white gown, she outshone everything around her.Everyone—young and old, men and women alike—was captivated. Their gazes locked onto her, unable to look away. She was breathtaking, beyond the reach of words. No description, no matter how poetic, could do her beauty justice."Zara?"Felix was stunned with joy. He hadn't expected Zara to appear at this moment. However, it wasn't just her presence. It was the look in her eyes, the expression on her face. It was her. The Zara he knew, not the dark force of the Twinshade Body.Which could only mean one thing—she had conquered it.His voice snapped the others out of their daze. Many men suddenly realized they had been standing there, slack-jawed, with drool dripping from their chins.For the first time, Nerissa felt truly outshined in terms of beauty. Yet, instead of jealousy, she felt a deep sense of j

Seeing Felix step forward on his own, a deep sense of pride swelled in Cordelia's heart as a mother."You forced me into this. I wanted to keep things peaceful, but you drove me to embrace the demon within."Felix's words made it clear. He was ready to use his dagger, Lumen. At death's door, why should he still care about the impact on his soul? That would be laughable."You little brat! How dare you pull a bluff before us?""You have no idea how vast the world is! So what if you embrace the demon within you? If power could be changed with mere words, wouldn't Martial City have fallen into chaos long ago?""If you can withstand three of my attacks, I'd already consider you quite capable."Aiden smirked. He knew it was over—his long-standing grudge against Felix would finally be settled.At the same time, the Grand Elder clenched his teeth, barely able to contain his anticipation. The moment Felix was slaughtered, he'd have his head severed and tossed into the capital just to let
