The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1233
The photo wasn't particularly clear. It looked like it was taken from a dashcam. However, it was more than enough for Felix to recognize Ophelia. He thought about how much she had helped him.If Ophelia hadn't figured out the rules of the Three Forbidden Lands, he would've been in big trouble if he had foolishly gone to Misty Ridge first—so how could she do such a thing?"Do you know this woman? Is she also from the Hall of Souls?" Felix asked.Yelena had been telling him everything she knew as she didn't have a choice now. She shook her head. "I don't. She's not from the Hall of Souls either."I just received the order from a Green Soul Scout to pick up the equipment from her. She drove a van and everything she provided was in the van. She left after confirming my identity. We didn't exchange a single word after that."Felix took a deep breath and put aside the matter for the time being. He would definitely ask more when he had the chance. "So tell me about the Malevolent Phant

Zion's daughter-in-law, Serena Wilde, had always felt guilty for the fallout. Her parents had passed early on in her life, and her older sister, Sophia Wilde, had helped raise Serena. Now, for the first time, Serena was speaking up for Sophia.According to Zion, Sophia's family had always been quite well-off. Her husband's business was stable, and they made quite a name for themselves. Unfortunately, they recently experienced a financial crisis and were on the verge of bankruptcy. However, they were still stubborn and wouldn't ask for help—especially the help of a sister who had long been cut off. Serena wanted Felix to find subtle ways to help them through this crisis. Felix thought about it and felt a little helpless.It was a tricky request, but Zion was sincere. If he truly wanted to, he could easily resolve the issues with their family's power in a matter of seconds. However, with the old man's temper, Felix couldn't do anything but obey.Besides, the Malevolent Phantoms were

Felix instantly felt a strong force pulling at the depths of his soul. The Infinite Shield immediately blocked the attack, protecting its master."You!" The little girl, who had been sobbing, now widened her eyes in horror. She raised her head and turned to Felix in disbelief."Goddamn it!" Felix would've never thought the little girl was also a Malevolent Phantom—this was simply impossible to guard against! Without another second of hesitation, he launched a barrage of attacks. The little girl was reduced to the verge of death in a matter of seconds."There are actually people who were soul masters? How unbelievable," she said.Despite being reduced to only a head, the little girl's expression was devoid of emotion except looking appalled. Goddamn it!Felix's expression was terribly gloomy at this moment. By all rights, he should've killed this B-tier Malevolent Phantom—but he held himself back. He didn't forget what Donna had said.If Felix killed it now, the information on

Without wasting any time, Felix quickly changed into a set of sportswear before heading to a tennis court in Monaire. He was exchanging fast-paced shots with a staff on the court. A man and woman were sweating profusely in the field right next to him during their intense game. The woman was particularly fair, and her long legs often caught the eye of the men walking by. That was Yolanda Zuckerberg, Sophia's daughter.That was Felix's target. Since the family didn't want to accept help, he needed to make sure that they took his help without guilt through legitimate cooperation. Zion had clearly said that he initially planned to form a relationship and help them discreetly.However, he was stopped by Serena. If it was a situation that couldn't be excused, Sophia would definitely find out Serena was helping them behind the scenes and refused all help. This immediately made Felix give up on his initial idea as he had thought the same.After all, operating from the shadows would save h

Yolanda replied in confusion, "What? What do you mean?"Felix smiled. "I used to have a classmate with the same name from elementary school."Lars' expression darkened at that. "Boy, this is getting ridiculous. You're using an outdated way of flirting with her. Why not say you grew up with someone called Yolanda Zuckerberg too?"Honestly, Yolanda had felt the same. Her short hair, fair skin, and long legs often led to many boys chasing after her. She had seen and heard many ways to pick up lines. If the tennis ball was an accident, then exchanging contacts wasn't too much."No, I used to go to Monaire Elementary and there was definitely a girl called Yolanda Zuckerberg there…" Felix said after a pause—acting as if he was thinking hard.Yolanda turned to him dumbfounded. Just as Lars was about to reply, she interjected, "Monaire Elementary? Which class are you in?""3rd Class."As Yolanda thought carefully, her expression changed. "Oh my! There really was a kid in my class call

Yolanda smiled bitterly. The idea made sense, but she rejected the thought. "Forget it. You know how large of a sum my financial crisis is! It's 5 billion dollars!"Even the bank blacklisted us and it's impossible to get a loan. Besides, whether it's individuals or companies, who in Monaire has the strength to come up with 5 billion dollars on the spot—except for that bastard."She sighed. "I don't deny that Felix is most likely filthy rich, but 5 billion dollars? That's impossible."Felix sat in the car outside of the tennis court. Everything had been planned after his brief investigation, so, of course, there would be no reason for failure. After discovering their family background, he realized the Zuckerbergs weren't ordinarily rich.It was no wonder they could prevent Serena from marrying into the Warlock family back then. They had everything. It was just a pity that Yolanda's father meddled in the import-export business. Initially, it was successful, creating a big name for th

Felix had been wondering about how he was going to find the Eight Guardians—but he didn't expect one to show up right in front of him. It seemed like Karina's last attack hadn't been too severe. Otherwise, how did Ashton recover so quickly?In order to rescue Melissa and Ronan, Gerald had set a goal, and Felix had to execute it no matter what. Despite the power of the Eight Guardians, he must take them all down.Without another word, a domain immediately surrounded them, and Felix frowned."You're not Ashton."The energy exuded by this man was definitely of a martial artist, but once in the domain, Felix immediately realized that it was just a man in the early stages of the Transcendent Realm. How the hell could he be Ashton?Before he finished his words, Felix leaped toward the man and grabbed him by the neck. "Tell me! Who are you? Why are you impersonating Ashton?"The man immediately dropped the pretense and fear overtook his expression. "Spare me! It was a woman who tampered

Bonnie was obviously stronger in terms of soul mastery—perhaps it was why Felix couldn't sense her realm despite being in his domain. There seemed to be a strange energy that surrounded her.He didn't dare to use his marital artist techniques to attack. Although he had the Infinite Shield, if he wasn't careful, there was a chance to damage his soul. That would be completely catastrophic. In the battle between souls, it was necessary to be completely focused—they were all written in the book given by Billy. "You're quite smart. I thought you were going to attack me with your martial arts." She sounded almost disappointed. She had thought Felix was just another untrained brute, that he would instinctively use his martial arts to fight her. If he did, she would undoubtedly have a chance to beat him."Enough!" Felix exclaimed as he launched the first attack. Lumen flew out, but Bonnie wasn't afraid at all.Something flew out of her body as she exchanged blows with the Lumen. As ex

Ginny was naturally present as well, and she spoke up at that moment. "Mr. Goldstein, no one wanted to see Justus die like that. But why did you bring your people to Longstone residence? Are you suggesting that his sudden death has something to do with us?"Joaquin's expression grew darker as he looked at her. He blamed Ginny for this, thinking that none of this would have happened if she had just agreed earlier. And now, they couldn't even determine the cause of death."No connection? That doctor from your household, Felix Zeller—he's the one responsible for Justus' death."Right then, someone spoke up from the crowd. "That's him! That's Felix Zeller!"Felix, who had been calmly sitting in a chair, finally saw Wagner standing among them. And in that moment, everything made sense."Wagner? You've gotten quite bold, huh?" Gras sneered.Wagner flinched at Gras's words, but remembering that he now had the Goldsteins backing him, he stiffened his spine and stood tall. "Cut the crap

In Cloud City, there were a few noble families. Nonetheless, behind the polite smiles, tensions surged. Infiltrating each other's estates with spies had practically become a tradition. While they rarely uncovered major secrets, the information they did gather always gave them a head start.So when the news broke, Gras didn't doubt it for a second. He jumped to his feet, furious. "This is outrageous! Their son dies, and somehow it's the Longstone family's fault?"Ryker looked just as puzzled, agreeing that the accusation made no sense.But Felix let out a quiet, weary sigh. "Mr. Longstone, I'm afraid this is probably my fault. I'm a doctor, and I've gotten a bit of attention lately. After they failed to determine the cause of Justus' death, and given our meeting earlier today, they likely saw an opportunity to drag your family into the mess." Gras's expression darkened, knowing that Felix wasn't wrong. After all, doctors could also be poisoners, and plenty of martial artists had fa

It was clear someone had said something to Justus. Otherwise, this situation wouldn't have escalated to this point.Felix said calmly, "It was a standard therapeutic massage technique, and I was blindfolded the entire time. Does that explanation satisfy you? Or would you rather find someone else capable of treating Ms. Longstone—I'll gladly step aside if you can."Justus sneered, his eyes filled with disdain. "Cut the crap, Felix. Don't act like I don't know exactly what's going through your head. Ginny's the heiress of the Longstone residence—Gras's precious jewel. Everyone knows that marrying her is like securing the entire household. Don't tell me that thought never crossed your mind.""It didn't," Felix said simply.Unfortunately, that answer was never going to satisfy Justus. He snarled, "Listen up, boy! I'm giving you three days to get the hell out of the Longstone residence. If you don't, you won't even get the chance to regret it. Everyone else might be afraid of Gras—but I

As Wagner watched Justus explode in rage, he felt an overwhelming sense of satisfaction. With what he'd just uncovered, there was no need to exaggerate—it was already explosive enough on its own.After all, Justus' future fiancée was touched in that kind of intimate way by a young, healthy doctor. Any man with a spine would lose it."But Justus," Wagner added with a smirk. "Didn't Felix just get publicly praised by the Green King?"Cloud City wasn't that big. Anyone with any influence had been keeping close tabs on Green King Manor—especially with the mystery man who walked out of Desolated Lands involved. So, the news of Felix being rewarded had already spread far and wide.Justus clenched his jaw. "So what? It's just a flash in the pan. If he was truly skilled, the Green King would've kept him. But as long as he hasn't climbed into the Green King's inner circle, I can crush him whenever I want."Wagner's grin widened. That was exactly the attitude he needed. If Justus had shown

The moment the Flame Monarch mentioned the Healer Sage, the Green King's expression shifted noticeably. "So the Sage really was living out there in seclusion... No wonder. Flame Monarch, does this mean you've taken a liking to Felix?"But the Flame Monarch waved his hand dismissively. "There's no need for that."That response made the Green King secretly rejoice. If the Flame Monarch didn't intend to recruit Felix, then he understood why—and that was perfect. It meant the opportunity to take Felix under his own wing was wide open.The night passed quietly. Felix stood beside Christopher's bedside, noticing the man's breathing had grown steady and stable.At this point, the herb had run its course and was no longer effective. But what was left inside Christopher's soul—a strange, lingering force—was exactly what Felix had hoped for.Christopher was alive but completely unconscious. The remaining energy had no regenerative properties, which meant he'd likely never wake again. For Fe

Felix wasn't the least bit surprised by the Flame Monarch's reaction, but he still feigned confusion. "Flame Monarch, I'm sorry... but I don't understand. What do you mean by soul-related injuries?"Just from that single line, Felix confirmed what he suspected—Aquamarinus had no concept of soul-based matters. Whether it was training methods or anything else, this realm hadn't yet touched that domain.The Flame Monarch stared at him, pressure radiating from his body. Felix immediately felt his limbs start to tremble under the invisible weight."You don't know? Then how could you claim to treat that man's condition?" Felix calmly pointed toward the herbs laid out on the table. "The force inside him is definitely strange. It triggered a memory... I once sensed something very similar, and it came from within that herb. It was purely instinct—when something feels familiar, there's a chance it might work."The Flame Monarch shifted his gaze to the herb, then said flatly, "Start from th

Felix gave him a direct and honest answer. "As long as I have enough herbs. I can treat him. I won't promise a full recovery, but one thing I can guarantee you is that this man won't die."For now, that was the best possible answer anyone could offer.The Flame Monarch replied, "Good. Begin. As long as you can keep him alive, you'll be handsomely rewarded."It seemed the Flame Monarch already knew something and never truly expected anyone to completely cure Christopher. Preserving his life alone would already be a feat."Flame Monarch, please reconsider!" one of the elderly doctors suddenly cut in, seething with resentment. "This boy is barely grown—how could he possibly possess such remarkable skill in medicine?"The Flame Monarch turned and gave him a cold, mocking glance. "If he can't do it, then can you?"The old man went silent. Perhaps fearing the loss of favor or acting out of sheer pride, he hesitated. Eventually, he found the courage to speak again."I admit I can't, bu

The Green King's expression changed instantly, and he turned to Felix in a hurry. "Dr. Zeller, please come with me to greet him.""Of course," Felix replied.For anyone in Aquamarinus, getting the chance to see the Flame Monarch up close was like a once-in-a-lifetime dream, and people would probably die happy just for that. Naturally, Felix put on a show of reverence as well, even if he didn't feel it deep down.As they reached the front gate, Felix saw several figures striding toward them with heavy steps. At the front of the group was a towering man, nearly nine feet tall. Even someone as built as Dave looked like a delicate bystander next to him.What stood out the most was his bright crimson hair, which flared upward like flames, making it look like his head was on fire. His facial features were fairly average, but the power behind his gaze radiated pure, undeniable authority.So, this was the Flame Monarch?Felix studied him closely. He suspected the man had cultivated some

According to the rules set by the Flame Monarch, the position of Minor Kings rotated every five years. Those who made outstanding contributions could keep their titles, but anyone who fell short would have to fight for their place all over again.The Green King knew he wasn't particularly strong—he was painfully aware of that. And with the next year marking the fifth year, the pressure was mounting fast. So when Christopher appeared, it felt like fate. If he could heal this man before the Flame Monarch arrived with his elite doctors, the credit would be immense, and his reappointment would be virtually guaranteed. Anyone who had never held a Minor King title wouldn't understand just how many perks came with it. If they did, no one would give it up willingly."I can treat him," Felix said calmly. "But I can't promise a full recovery."The Green King smiled. "Do your best. Even if you can only keep him alive, that alone is worth it."Two doctors before had said that Christopher's b
