As the sun rose, Marley arrived at Felix's office."Sir, all six prisoners awaiting execution have been brought in," he reported.Felix stood up, saying, "Let's go."After hesitating, Marley caught up with him and asked, "Are you sure it'll work, sir? These prisoners don't have body odor."Felix sneered. "I believe that they targeted people with body odor for two reasons. For one, they would be desperate to seek a cure, which is why they would choose to believe them no matter how ridiculous it sounds. "Secondly, a person with body odor would likely not have any friends. If they die, the commotion it would cause will be minimal."So, the serum works on anyone. The body odor angle is just a cover."Marley nodded unconsciously after hearing this.It made sense. After all, it would be nearly impossible to get an ordinary person to visit a specific clinic for a dental procedure without questioning it. However, if you told someone suffering from severe body odor that cutting out the

"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

Just as the gaping mouth was about to descend on Chloe, the middle-aged man was sent flying sideways. It crashed into the wall and exploded into a mist of blood. Only his severed head rolled to the ground."A martial artist? You're looking for death!" the man snarled.Even in that state, the man remained arrogant. His body had already begun regenerating as he roared in fury.The one who had struck at the critical moment, of course, was Felix. He let out a sigh of relief. Chloe would've been doomed if he had been even a second later.20 minutes later, the middle-aged man glared up at Felix with rage. At this point, all that was left of him was his head and neck."As expected, the soul energy of an A-tier Malevolent Phantom is ridiculously strong. It took this long just to wear it down," Felix commented.After some quick calculations, Felix realized that only someone who mastered the Transcendent Realm could pull this off. Other martial artists simply wouldn't be able to last until

Felix had previously sensed the faint residue left in Chloe's mouth, which was diluted after being washed away. Even so, Felix had been able to determine the medicinal ingredients used.As he inhaled the pure, undiluted scent of the serum, he realized he had been overlooking a crucial truth.The women who had supposedly been cured of their body odor by the Malevolent Phantoms' methods weren't actually healed in the way everyone assumed. Their new, faint fragrance wasn't the key result of the serum—it directly affected their souls.The moment Felix took a whiff, he instantly sensed something invading his soul. However, since he hadn't ingested it directly, the effect dissipated almost as soon as it appeared.Nonetheless, it was clear to him that the serum wasn't a remedy for body odor. Its real target was the soul."Marley, take him back for interrogation!" he ordered.Felix rushed away as Marley, who was standing guard outside with the others, entered. He had already pieced tog

Felix would lose all perception of the outside world when using the Soul Manifestation technique. If danger struck, he'd be completely helpless. Hence, he would never use it unless absolutely necessary or unless he had someone he trusted to guard him."The threat in your soul has been removed," Felix said. "You can choose to talk, or I'll make you talk. I'm sure you know where the difference lies."Viper grit his teeth as he realized he had no choice but to trust Felix."Hall of Souls!" he spat.After realizing that he was still alive upon uttering the words, Viper's eyes widened in shock.Felix wasn't just a powerful martial artist in the Grandmaster Realm. His control over souls was just as terrifying. The people who had bound his soul had said that it was unbreakable. So what was going on?Felix frowned."Hall of Souls? What is that?" he asked.It sounded like an organization to Felix.Now that he didn't have to worry about dying, Viper's anger started to bubble up."I was

That evening, Viper slammed a bottle of liquor onto the table with a loud thud inside a villa in Kashmere."That hits the spot!"He had a habit of downing an entire bottle of liquor every evening and had never skipped a day.Just as he stood up and let out a satisfied belch, he became terrified when he realized he couldn't move."What is going on?"It felt like a massive mountain was pressing down on him. He couldn't move a muscle, and breathing became more challenging with each passing moment.At that moment, someone appeared in his view, and his eyes widened in horror.It was Felix.Viper recognized him immediately and understood why he had appeared. He wondered when he had been exposed and why Felix was targeting him.He knew it would be pointless to try and fight him. After all, Felix was in the Grandmaster Realm. It would be impossible to escape or resist him. Fear gripped him as Felix raised his hand to strike him. Unbearable pain overwhelmed Viper. However, it was gon

About 20 minutes later, Marley sent another message. "At the supermarket now."Almost simultaneously, Felix finally detected a martial artist within his domain. He mumbled, "Early-stage Blood Realm?"That was not much in Martial City, but it was considered a high-level martial artist in the capital. Either it was just a coincidence, or there was a strong chance this person was the one who had dropped off the solution.Felix picked up his groceries and casually moved toward the checkout counter near the storage lockers, all while keeping his domain locked onto the early-stage Blood Realm martial artist. The man was about 30 feet away, pretending to inspect apples. He was careful, moving naturally and avoiding anything suspicious. However, that was pointless under Felix's domain. Sure enough, he was watching the locker.The man finally relaxed only after the disguised Khalil arrived and retrieved the package. He grabbed two bags of fruit and headed for checkout.Felix exited the s

Phil acted like he had not heard Angie and continued walking. However, he suddenly stopped just as he took a few more steps. When he turned around, his expression had completely changed.He asked, "What did you say his name was?"Upon sensing a shift in the situation, Angie quickly answered, "Felix Zeller.""He's the one who wants to see me?""Yes!"Phil was visibly unsettled now. After a brief pause, he finally said, "Alright. Let's go."Carlos was stunned, wondering what the hell was going on. Did Felix really have connections in Newtown?When they arrived at the private dining room, Phil visibly flinched the moment he laid eyes on Felix. He quickly greeted, "Sir!"That single word sent shivers down Angie's and Carlos' spines. The difference in status was so glaringly obvious that it was downright terrifying. Felix did not recognize the young man, but anyone with ties to Newtown would undoubtedly know him.Felix immediately ordered, "Arrange for the Sinclairs to open their r

"Alright, alright, I'll do it—just stop shaking my arm, you're gonna rip it off," Felix replied.He had always preferred friends who did not allow their status to create distance. Jack was the same way—if he needed something, he wouldn't play games; he would just call and ask directly.Lindsay lit up with excitement. "I knew you'd come through! Angie, what do you think? Maybe you should marry him as a thank-you!"Angie was completely stunned, wondering if Felix was serious and could even pull strings in Newtown.Just then, Felix said, "You just need to bring that guy to see me."Angel immediately went to the private room. Lindsay had fought to get her this chance, and she would be the biggest fool alive if she let it slip away.Just as she reached the private dining room, a middle-aged man stepped out. She greeted, "Dad."The man was none other than Angie's father, Carlos Sinclair. He asked, "Angie, where are you going?"Without hesitation, Angie laid everything out.Carlos f

The eerie transformation played out in front of everyone, yet not a single person looked surprised. In mere moments, the man had completely taken on Stewart's appearance—it was almost impossible to tell them apart.Felix said approvingly, "Not bad. Unless someone gets close enough to inspect, they'll never notice the difference."After confirming earlier that the solution had successfully eliminated Chloe's body odor, Felix immediately contacted Xena and requested reinforcements from headquarters. Instead of fighters, he asked for skilled operatives who could impersonate Stewart and two other dentists connected to the case.The mastermind behind this would not be switching locations after every move—it was a cycle. Eventually, they would use one of these three dentists again, and whoever got the next call would lead them to the source.Felix had prepared this plan in advance. The actual execution depended on the details Stewart provided, and now that they had those, it was time to
