The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1299
Inside a suite at Laurel Resort, a middle-aged man with a face full of pockmarks suddenly furrowed his brows. "Why am I still staying here? Something feels off, but I can't quite put my finger on it."Muttering to himself, he got up and hurried toward the door. He moved so quickly that when he reached the lobby, he didn't even bother checking out. He just walked straight outside.However, he hadn't gone far before he suddenly stopped in his tracks. "Why are there so many people from headquarters here?"Sensing something was wrong, the middle-aged man's figure flickered and disappeared in an instant. Then, he reappeared by a mountain stream some distance away from the resort.He muttered, "That was close. I almost got surrounded. But why is headquarters deploying so many people to encircle Laurel Resort?"A voice suddenly answered him, saying, "Because there's a Malevolent Phantom inside. That's why."Before he could react, he realized his body was no longer under his control."F

There was no doubt that the Phaeron Codex was truly powerful. Just the Spirit Eye technique alone proved its worth. Not only did it work without physical contact, but as one's strength grew, its range extended as well. Most importantly, unlike Soul Manifestation, using Spirit Eye didn't cut off one's awareness of the outside world."I've erased the ties Hall of Souls left on your soul," Felix said.The middle-aged man was utterly stunned. No wonder the organization had warned them to avoid any confrontation with Felix for now. Felix had already reached a terrifying level that he could even remove the soul-binding constraints."You're one of Hall of Souls' Green Soul Scouts, aren't you?"At this point, his fate was no longer in his own hands. What reason was there to deny it?"Yes, I am."A bitter smile crept onto his face. "But honestly, you won't get much valuable information from me. While we rank above Blue Soul Scouts and can access some hidden details, it's not much. "

Felix quickly turned his head to see a man rushing toward him about 30 feet away. The man's arms were unnaturally long, completely beyond a human's reach. If they hung naturally, his fingertips would've easily touched his ankles.His speed was terrifying. Using his arms to propel himself forward, he crossed the long distance in almost a blink of an eye. On the other hand, Felix stood still—not even raising his fists.An invisible force immediately hit the strange man. There was a bang as the man's whole body exploded, his head flying into the air. As the head fell to the ground, a body seemed to sprout from the base of the neck. Felix had only seen such regeneration in Malevolent Phantoms before, and it could only happen after getting destroyed multiple times. A slight frown formed on his face. Felix slowly raised his right hand, stretching out his index finger before tapping lightly.There was another bang, though much quieter than before. The man who just regrew his body stood s
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1302
Since even the man—a Green Soul Scout—confirmed Felix's thoughts, this was most likely the latest experiment. Despite using his domain, he couldn't sense the Malevolent Phantom in the man. This could only mean one thing—the range of control over these things had exceeded his domain."The soul ties on you. Hall of Souls can always track where you are, right?" "Yes."With that answer, Felix finally understood how Hall of Souls found him. However, the only thing he couldn't figure out was why they were using experiments against him, knowing that it was useless."Alright. Let's get back to the Black Soul Scout you mentioned."…More than ten minutes later, Xena and Hector arrived with a group of people. Felix handed the Green Soul Scout over to them and pointed at the headless corpse. "That should be the latest experiment developed by Hall of Souls. We seem to have quite some trouble on our hands."After listening to his explanation, the two of them frowned. "I didn't expect Ha

Felix looked into Donna's serious eyes and took a step back. "What are you trying to do?"Donna was an S-tier Malevolent Phantom. Kissing her? He wouldn't have even thought about touching her!Donna chuckled. "Look at how terrified you are. If I wanted you dead, you would've been dead a long time ago. Do I really need to prove myself?"Although that was true, Felix was still doubtful. "What do you mean? Do you just want to feel how it is to kiss a human?" "Hey! I'm not that boring." She pointed at his chest and said solemnly, "You damaged your soul in the fight with the S-tier Malevolent Phantom. If you kiss me, I can use my soul power to heal you. "After all, I made a lot of profit from the Mystical Explosive Orb this time, so you deserve to be rewarded."S-tier Malevolent Phantoms could heal people? Felix was shocked. The abilities of Malevolent Phantoms were beyond human comprehension."I'm fine," he replied.When Donna heard this answer, she burst out laughing, even throw

"If my soul energy isn't strong enough, then I wouldn't have thought twice to use my martial arts in a near-death situation. That way, I could at least turn the situation around. "If my soul was strong enough, I wouldn't need to use martial arts to kill the S-tier Malevolent Phantom. Then, after your little kiss, you'd get the answer you wanted," Felix concluded.With that, Donna started clapping and laughed. "I'm really starting to like you more and more. Deciding to work with you was definitely my best choice."When she saw Felix's brooding expression, she stuck out her tongue and was acting cutesy. "Oh, don't be angry! I just want to know the full strength of my partner. Besides, you usually don't let me touch you, and it was a good chance to kill two birds with one stone. "Being able to kill an S-tier Malevolent Phantom with soul attacks alone—despite its soul core being exposed—meant you must've at least reached Higher Spirit Realm. How amazing!" she said with a smirk. "Of

Just by Billy's voice, it seemed like he wasn't fooling around. Recalling Billy's absence and phone being turned off, did he truly run into danger? But what kind of person could hurt Billy?"What is it? How can I help you?" Felix quickly asked.Billy's voice immediately dropped, as if he was hiding. "The Sword Goddess. She's hunting me down, Felix! Please make her stop. If this keeps up, I'm going to die!"Dahlia? Felix was confused. The only Sword Goddess he knew of was Dahlia. Many people knew her because of her Duo Moon Sword. As Felix thought about it, he seemed to realize that he hadn't heard of Dahlia in a long time."Are you sure it's Dahlia?" Felix asked with a frown. Dahlia was definitely powerful, but even he couldn't judge how powerful she was. In comparison, Billy was more of a mystery and definitely more powerful. How did this happen?"No shit! I took leave because I got injured by her! Help me quickly! You ungrateful bastard, are you seriously not going to help m

By 4:00 pm, Felix and Donna arrived at Zuera Airport. The Green Soul Scout had said that the private paradise was located here, but he wasn't sure where the mall was. It was the reason Felix came here in the first place.Besides, the Green Soul Scout never dared to confirm the information as it was hearsay. "Well, I'll have to trouble you for this then, Ms. Webster. I'll wait to hear from you."Donna made an okay gesture with her fingers and was about to walk off, but Felix thought of something. "You won't get chased away by S-tier Malevolent Phantoms here, right?"She gave him a blank look. "From the moment I step foot here, the S-tier Malevolent Phantoms have already sensed it. I can't guarantee if they would drive me off or not, so hurry up. I have to go."Her answer shocked Felix. However, once she left, Felix was about to call for a taxi to the hotel when Luna called. "Luna? Have you arrived in Dragonia?""Mm-hmm, I've been here for a while now. Fortunately, you found o

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 Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1529
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
