"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
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 2
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

The speaker was one of the triplets. Besides them, two other women were standing, with the only person seated being a bald man named Justin Odell. Justin laughed coldly. "You're a short-sighted fool! Look at how pretty and alluring this woman is. Imagine how much food she could bring us." The women immediately began flattering him. "You really have such a great vision, Mr. Odell." "Whatever you say is right." "Yes, we'll definitely listen to you." Justin smiled. "Don't worry. I'll modify your soul slightly so you'll follow my commands obediently." At that moment, Milo felt no fear. She had long been accustomed to life-and-death situations. Ever since becoming a martial artist, she had anticipated such a day. After joining the headquarters to fight Malevolent Phantoms, the chances of dying were naturally even higher. The headquarters' intelligence turned out to be wrong this time. There weren't just three B-tier Malevolent Phantoms in this village. Those two women were a
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1257
An ordinary person would have been scared enough to run away immediately. Apart from the village ahead, the surrounding areas were completely open, with no sign of any person. Anyone would have thought they had encountered a ghost. How could they not run? But Felix was different. He raised his right hand with a frown, and a powerful suction force appeared. The next moment, something from the distance flew toward him rapidly. When he lowered his hand, a woman now stood before him. She seemed to be around 30 years old and fairly attractive."Why are you trying to act all creepy and eerie?" What intrigued him was that the woman showed no fear at all, instead looking arrogantly at him. "I'm trying to save your life. Don't ask questions. Just leave quickly." Felix laughed. "It seems my skills are stronger than yours, right?" Was this woman confused? Did she not understand who was stronger? He could not believe that she was still so deluded even when he had caught her now. Une

Felix then said, "I have something to deal with tonight. Just do it tomorrow, as I said." Louise answered, "Yes, sir!" For Louise, Felix's words were absolute law. After being threatened by that masked mysterious person last time, he was eager for revenge. Just after leaving the meeting place, Felix suddenly furrowed his brows. Among the lackeys he had back then, the only one he had kept was Reagan. He hadn't dismissed him, thinking he might be useful later. But just now, he could sense that their connection had vanished. This could only mean two things. Either Reagan was dead, or he had escaped control. After hesitating, he called Luna. "Felix!"Her voice was filled with excitement, which made Felix feel slightly helpless. "Luna, listen carefully. Confirm the Shadowstalker Emperor's status as quickly as possible. "If he's alive, pack up and come to Dragonia with all of your family immediately. Staying in Astoria is definitely not safe." Luna had helped him a lot. While

Felix felt awkward. He had been so confident, and then, Lars dropped the bombshell. He added, "But wait. You guys were just talking about how powerful Fifteenth Overlord is. How could he be useless against the Meyers?" Yolanda looked at him suspiciously. "Do you know Fifteenth Overlord?" Last night, her father, Giveon Zuckerberg, had asked Rick to request Louise's help. But she had held no hope—Rick was a nobody to them, after all. Even Ben, who worked under Louise, wouldn't even give him a second glance. Yet somehow, things had worked out. She felt like someone had been secretly helping her behind the scenes.Now that Felix mentioned him, Yolanda started to suspect something. "I don't know him. I figured offering him a billion dollars would make him willing to help." Lars and Yolanda looked exasperated at his words. Money truly talked—Felix was willing to offer a billion dollars just to get Louise's attention.Even if others had considered doing the same, they would eith

Yolanda said, "Are you satisfied now? We've not only failed to get Zachariah's help, but we've also made an enemy. If the Meyers decide to attack our families, how long do you think we can survive?" Lars hadn't expected Felix to be so aggressive. He kept his head down without a word, knowing he had made a mistake. But Felix tried to help clarify things. "Calm down, Yolanda. Lars told me everything. I've already called my dad, and his think tank is analyzing your family's situation. I think they'll probably invest." Yolanda stared at Felix in disbelief. "Are you serious?" "Absolutely. With your family's survival on the line, why would I lie? Everything depends on my dad's assessment, of course. 50 billion dollars isn't pocket change. "You helped me once, and we're classmates. You should have told me about this earlier. How could I just watch you suffer and not help?" Felix smiled and said, "I can guarantee that if we invest, your dad will still run the company. We won't inte
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1253
With Lars' help, Felix could definitely be more aggressive. And he could interfere without raising Yolanda's suspicions, too. His words immediately infuriated Zachariah. "You stupid brat! Are you talking to me?" Zachariah's two bodyguards immediately glared menacingly. "There must be a misunderstanding, Zachariah!" Sure enough, Yolanda snapped out of her daze and rushed to Felix's side. "Felix, have you lost your mind? My business is not your concern!" Clever as she was, how could she not guess that Lars had already told Felix everything? Otherwise, why would he suddenly show such hostility toward a stranger? "It doesn't matter whether I should get involved or not. I can't just let you be bullied. After all, I still owe you a favor from when we were kids." As he spoke, Felix raised his hand and made a gesture. "Get him out of here!" The manager appeared with over a dozen security guards, now approaching Zachariah. Zachariah burst out laughing. "This is ridiculous! I'm
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1252
Felix chuckled. "Just stay out of it. I'm not an idiot." After arriving at the tennis court, they immediately spotted Yolanda playing with a slightly pudgy man with a beer belly. If Lars hadn't mentioned him, Felix would have thought the man was in his 40s. He looked way older than Felix had expected. He was the type of man who would have been completely forgettable in the crowd if it weren't for his good family background.Right then, Zachariah waved for a break and sat down next to Yolanda. "Zachariah, I've improved a bit, right?" Wiping sweat with a towel, Zachariah said with a smile, "Yeah, you've improved. But you're still far off. If I wasn't holding back, you wouldn't last three rounds." Yolanda, who never liked flattery, forced herself to say, "Of course. You're so amazing at tennis, after all. I'm nowhere near being able to actually play with you." Putting down the towel, Zachariah looked at Yolanda. "I know your family's situation, so let's cut to the chase. I'm

Felix was exaggerating a little. Lars then said, "Felix, this isn't even funny. Yolanda was fine, so how could she end up getting assaulted and committing suicide?" Lars knew Felix would not buy the story, so he said with a bitter smile, "Alas… Since I've started talking, I'll tell you everything. The truth is, I've known Yolanda since we were teenagers. "We've always been close friends—the kind that never quite turned romantic. That's why I'm so worked up about this whole mess." Hearing his words, Felix's expression turned serious. "Tell me everything. I'll definitely help you if I can. Although it's been a long time since I last met her, I haven't forgotten the young woman who was once brave enough to help me. "If I can do something about this, I absolutely will." Regardless of whether Felix was telling the truth, Lars felt he had chosen the right person to confide in."Yolanda's family is in deep trouble. They're facing a 50-billion-dollar funding gap. Every major bank

The hint couldn't have been any more obvious, but Felix didn't care. If the woman was a Malevolent Phantom, of course, he was more than willing to drink with her. Since she wasn't, she needed to get out of there.On the piece of paper Donna had given him was the address of this private karaoke booth. It also mentioned that the triplets inside were all Malevolent Phantoms. As for what was next, there were no further instructions. Everyone knew what was to come. Soon, the young man came back with three women who looked identical. To be honest, they weren't the most beautiful women Felix had met, but they weren't that bad. Besides, with three women, any man would've jumped at the chance. The pleasures of sex—at least for men—were divided into two aspects, physical and mental. According to some experts, the mental pleasure of sexual intercourse is more important than physical pleasure. For example, if a man got lucky enough to sleep with a celebrity, the excitement from it was somet
