"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

Felix turned and saw Sasha.Just his luck.He didn't want to argue with her, but he decided to say, "Sasha, you don't have to worry about what your father said. There's no future between us. I'll break the news to him in a month."Sasha chuckled. "At least you're self-aware. That saves me the trouble. You'd better stick to your words, or you'll regret it when I do it my way."Ruth chimed in, "You might not know how popular Sasha is now. She has more admirers than she can count, and many of them are from wealthy families. You're no match."Then, she glanced at the tail lights of the disappearing Rolls-Royce Phantom. "Renting a fancy car might change your appearance, but it won't change who you are inside."Felix nodded, relieved Sasha wasn't pursuing him. He never liked her, not three years ago, and certainly not now. Her family's company's success had only made her more arrogant and superficial.As Felix headed into Luxe Dining, Sasha scowled, and her disdain became evident. "Ar

"Alas, it was partly my fault. He simply looked too young. Before treating Mr. Kinsley Senior, we had a bit of a disagreement, so I didn't manage to get his contact."Xena understood where Xander was coming from and couldn't blame him.No one would believe it when a young man claimed his medical skills were superior to Xander's, one of the top ten healers in the country."Thank you, Dr. Fielding. I'll follow up with the Kinsley family."Some hope was better than none. Compared to the elusive miracle doctor, Xena thought that the mysterious young man was undoubtedly worth pursuing.…Felix felt thoroughly satisfied as he left Luxe Dining. The food was delicious, justifying its high price.Just then, Warren called. Before leaving the Quinston villa, Felix had reluctantly given him his new contact information."Uncle Warren, what's up?""Felix, come stay at my place tonight."Felix tried to decline. "No, I—""Don't even try to fool me. I've known you since you were a kid. I can

Felix felt like crying. After everything he had been through, his feelings for Gerald were beyond words. "Mr. Hoffman, I took another mentor in Martial City. Her name is Deborah Goddard, and she taught me pill cultivation. You won't mind, will you?" Gerald laughed and said, "Why would I? Pill cultivation will be extremely useful to you. If you hadn't taken up on her offer, I'd be the one punishing you." Then, Felix thought of something. "Mr. Hoffman, do you have any photos from when you were young?" "Why?""I want to see how handsome you were back then.""Hah! I'm enjoying the flattery. I was quite the charmer in my youth. My smile would make any girl swoon. But no, I don't have any photos, so don't bother asking." Felix had hoped to confirm if Gerald was the Ancient Sage Cordelia had mentioned, but that seemed unlikely now. Finally, he went on to the main topic. "I met Eloise."Gerald had been humming cheerfully on the other end, but the tune stopped at Felix's words."I
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1114
Felix knew about this. All of his nine fellow apprentices indeed practiced different techniques, and Gerald had said those exact words. "Five years ago, I discovered a technique perfectly suited for me by chance, far more powerful than what I practiced then. Eventually, I couldn't resist trying it. I thought I could seek Mr. Hoffman's help if anything went wrong, but nothing happened."Felix felt utterly helpless. "So, you took such extreme measures over this?" Perhaps Gerald had his reasons for lying about other martial arts techniques, but surely this reaction was excessive. "Felix, do you think I'm that petty? If it were just that, of course not. My progress with that technique was remarkable."Over two years ago, I reached its highest level. That's when I discovered a seal on my body." Felix froze. He recalled Kevin's words during their battle in Martial City about what would happen if his nine fellow apprentices broke their seals. Could it be true?"I confronted Mr. Hof

On the television sat a woman, her face devoid of expression. Anyone who saw her would be struck first by her royal bearing. Words like beautiful or gorgeous fell short. She commanded a presence like a queen, which would make anyone feel inadequate in comparison.But Felix did not feel that way. His jaw dropped, eyes filled with utter disbelief. The woman on the screen was none other than his fellow apprentice, Eloise. Felix knew no one could impersonate Eloise. Few had ever met her, let alone possessed the ability to mimic her demeanor. "Eloise?" His question betrayed his inner turmoil. "Felix." When the woman on screen responded, Felix lost all composure. He wished desperately that this was just a dream rather than reality. Eloise was the Grand Cardinal of the Westerio Order? Did that mean she had founded the organization? But why? No wonder they knew everything about him—it all made sense now."Leave us," she commanded.The Scarlet Cardinal bowed and left the room,

Since the prison had no ties to Guneria, Felix did not mind causing a scene there. Luna added, "I've managed to bribe someone inside the prison who can provide intelligence at any time."Felix felt moved. "Thank you for doing all this, Luna." He remembered seeing her text messages when checking his phone earlier, asking him to reach out upon his return. It seemed this was the reason why. "I'd do anything for you."Though the timing felt wrong, Felix spoke up, "I'm married now. Her name is Nerissa."To his surprise, Luna smiled. "Thank you for telling me. I never dreamed we could be together. What we have is already precious enough. It left the deepest mark on my life." Felix sighed to himself. Matters of the heart were the most troublesome, yet sometimes circumstances left no choice."When the time comes to rescue Elliott, I'll let you know," Felix told her as the plane began its landing approach. He needed to find Melissa and Ronan first. "Okay. Please be careful," Luna
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1111
After three years, Felix sat on a plane again, though his mind wandered elsewhere. As long as Melissa and Ronan were alive, there would be no issue. With him personally stepping in, their rescue was almost certain.His thoughts lingered more on Malevolent Phantoms. Until now, they had not encountered any A-tier Phantoms, so their true strength remained unknown. Felix was not arrogant enough to believe he was invincible.With so many martial artists around, no one could guarantee control over all of them. If they began a wholesale slaughter of the Phantoms, all their plans would crumble. They would not even risk telling Felix."Felix?"A sudden voice startled Felix. He never expected to meet Luna on a plane after all these years. "Luna? What a coincidence!"Luna burst into tears. Despite her usual composure, three years of separation had taken their toll. She threw herself into Felix's arms. "You're back! You're finally back safely." Felix patted her back awkwardly, aware of the

Felix couldn't kill them? Felix almost thought Xena was joking. He now had almost perfected the Ethereal Constitution. Besides, he had Lumen and the Infinite Shield.He came back to show his skills. Yet now, they were telling him not to kill?"Although Dragonia doesn't have that much soul mastery, there are some for now. Additionally, after three years, several of our martial artists and top experts have the ability to kill the Malevolent Phantoms."At least there wouldn't be a problem dealing with the C-tier and B-tier Malevolent Phantoms. As for Billy, you're familiar with him. He can definitely kill the A-tier Malevolent Phantoms. But again, killing isn't allowed."Felix looked at her seriously. "Then, you'd better convince me."Xena was prepared for this answer. "The order is issued by the headquarters. The Malevolent Phantoms had been sent to gather intelligence. If you kill them—however you kill them—information about their death would be sent somewhere."As for where it'
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1109
Felix was silent after hearing the news. After a long pause, he asked, "Are they dead?"Xena knew that despite seeming calm, Felix was like a ticking time bomb—one that was about to blow."No, no! Not long after you left, they were captured by the Westerio Order."The Westerio Order! Felix clenched his fists. He didn't expect that the loose ends he left behind would hurt Melissa. However, it was too urgent of a mission, and he wasn't strong then. Of course, he didn't want to go after the Westerio Order, but he truly didn't expect they would act upon his absence."I'm sorry," Xena said.Felix waved his hand dismissively. "It has nothing to do with you. Melissa and Ronan must've been traveling around the world at the time. They weren't under your protection then."He thought Ronan was strong enough to deal with sneak attacks. Besides, the Westerio Order wouldn't have sent a particularly strong person for the first time. After the first attack, Melissa and Ronan would've definit

Felix felt like Cordelia was just going to say more and more outrageous things, so he hurried away. All of a sudden, he noticed Xena in an armored vehicle."Long time no see."Three years felt like it was yesterday. However, the difference was Felix wasn't conflicted anymore. Meanwhile, Xena's eyes were full of complex emotions. "I heard you got married in Martial City." She had seen and heard the news but didn't want to ask. Yet, she still brought it up now."Yes, I'm married now," Felix replied.There was a pause after his reply before she asked again, "Did you get married to complete the mission, or—"Felix didn't avoid her gaze and said seriously, "I really wanted to get married. Nerissa is truly a good woman, and she's worthy of my time."With that answer, Xena turned away, looking around outside before composing herself. As for what she was thinking, even she wasn't clear on what she wanted. "The Malevolent Phantom I met in Martial City… I didn't notice it before. Is

Xena immediately shook her head. "I dare not say that I know him best, but he is a man who values loyalty and righteousness. If we hide it from him and he finds out through other people, I don't think we can bear the consequences later."A thick silence fell. After a few minutes, Lionel spoke up, "Just… Just do as is. Why don't you tell Felix about those two people?"An hour later, the great mountain in front of them disappeared. Instead, an endless field replaced it. The Warlords were unfazed, but the soldiers from headquarters were stunned.After all, this was like a scene out of a movie. It was incredible. When they got out of their shock, they realized a lot of people stood in the field—so many that they couldn't count.The leader was naturally Felix."Hello, everyone. Long time no see." Felix's face was full of emotion as he saw those familiar faces again. After three years, he had finally come home. No matter how much he felt like he belonged in Martial City, there was n
