The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 266
Felix and George settled into the fourth row, gesturing to the staff to push their single-seater chairs together. Considering the high-profile attendees present, Felix could not help but feel curious about George's bold move. It was a clear statement to others about their close relationship. "Showing me this much love? What if my ties with Moonshadow Alliance aren't as close as you think?" Felix teased. George shrugged casually and said, "Come on. A friend is a friend, and having more friends means more opportunities. I'll prove myself through actions. If I ever need your help and you're able and willing, I won't hesitate to ask. If you can't, no hard feelings. Life's unpredictable, you know?" Felix nodded in agreement, a smile playing on his lips. Then, George continued, "The first three rows are off-limits to the younger crowd."George's explanation hinted at his own elevated position. In other words, the fourth row onward was where the younger generat

George keenly noticed the change in Felix's expression. He patted Felix's shoulder sympathetically and said, "Tough luck, Felix. Take my advice—you can't outbid Lady Nala." Felix furrowed his brow and asked, "Is it always about money at the Golden Prime Auction?"If it came down to cash, Nala might have the upper hand; someone with her status in Yartford would surely not be short on funds. Unless Gerald's assets were unfrozen for him, Felix was unsure if Leslie's Concord Bank's Supreme Black Card would suffice. George explained, "Not always. Most items go for cash, but some have weird requirements. You never know until the moment arrives." With concern evident in his voice, he added, "Felix, you're not seriously thinking of competing with Lady Nala, are you?" Felix could not help but chuckle. "What's wrong? Worried that I'll drag you into this?"To his surprise, George shook his head. "That's not it. It's all fair game in auctions. Besides, Lady Nala isn't petty enough to hold

George had murmured under his breath, which piqued Felix's interest. Indeed, for the first time, no one in the entire hall placed a counterbid, proving that George had not been exaggerating."30 million dollars," the electronically-altered voice from earlier announced. It was done to protect the identity of those in the private boxes. Knowing the drill, the auctioneer did not wait for another bid and immediately brought the hammer down. He declared, "Sold for 30 million dollars! Congratulations!" Even though Nala could have easily won with a casual bid of a few hundred thousand, she chose to pay a respectable amount. It spoke volumes about her wealth and integrity."Still think you have a shot at Item 18?" George persisted, trying to dissuade Felix from challenging Nala as he was unaware of just how crucial Moon's Tear was to him."We'll see. I think I know what Lady Nala is up to," Felix replied.George could not help but be curious and asked, "Oh? Care to share?"Felix expl

Felix's bold move caught the attention of everyone in the room. The crowd whispered among themselves, wondering who this newcomer was. They could not believe that he actually dared to challenge Nala as he would surely not stand a chance.Even the auctioneer, who had hosted the Golden Prime Auction for years, was taken aback by this unprecedented turn of events. It was his first time seeing someone competing against Nala.Yvonne reported, "Miss, Felix raised his hand."She was stunned by his action and could not understand what Felix was trying to achieve. It would have been understandable if he had been at the event alone. However, he was with George, who would have undoubtedly warned him beforehand.Nala's eyes sparkled with intrigue as she watched the scene unfold below. "Let's see what kind of connection he can pull out," she mused. There were only a few true master healers in Dragonia, and the top three were so highly regarded that even many so-called important figures would

The moment the auctioneer confirmed the Miracle Card's authenticity, the room erupted. The once-quiet auction hall was buzzing with discussion. After all, the power and value of a Miracle Card were impossible to ignore."F-Felix actually traded a Miracle Card for Moon's Tear?" Yvonne stuttered, dumbfounded by Felix's decision. As Nala said before, Yvonne also thought it was simply short-sighted of Felix to do so. With the right strategy, a Miracle Card could yield an unimaginable return. For instance, the Kinsley family from Avesburgh had been wise. They made a spectacle of auctioning off a Miracle Card, which caught the attention of Moonshadow Alliance. Consequently, they had gone from being a small local name to a recognized force in Yartford, gaining a foothold in record time. Hence, Yvonne regarded Felix's move as a waste.Nala's disappointment was palpable. "If you don't have anything worth keeping in Avesburgh, don't bother going back," she told Yvonne coldly.Yvonne cou

When Felix landed in Avesburgh at midnight, his phone buzzed with missed calls and messages as he turned it on. Among the callers were people from Tabiner Bay, Ernest, and even Xena.Felix was puzzled, wondering why so many people tried to reach him even at this late hour. After a moment of hesitation, he decided to call Ernest back. The man had tried several times, so it had to be something urgent. "Mr. Holt Senior, I just landed. Is everything okay?""You need to come back quickly. Your villa caught fire. It's just been put out, but there's nothing much left."Felix's mind immediately flashed to Harold, and he made a silent decision as he rushed to Tabiner Bay. When he arrived, Xena was waiting at the entrance, and the villa was nothing more than a charred shell behind her. "Do you need the Phoenix Legion to help with the investigation?" Xena asked, her expression neutral.She knew a regular fire would unlikely harm a skilled martial artist like Felix unless he had

Xena scoffed at the idea that Felix had stayed all day. She thought it was a pathetic attempt to impress her, doubting that his presence could actually wake Curtis. Nonetheless, she did not dwell on the matter and stepped out into the courtyard, her gaze fixed in the distance as if waiting for someone. About half an hour later, a car pulled up, and Jaden stepped out. "Xena, I've brought Dr. Quinn," he announced proudly. Xena had rushed back to Avesburgh because Jaden had managed to secure Brandon's services. Despite being only one rank above Seth, Brandon's medical skills were vastly superior. Among master healers, the top three were the true legends. Even Xena herself did not have the influence to summon him, so Jaden's success was impressive. She believed if anyone could heal Curtis, it would be Brandon. As Jaden finished speaking, he opened the car door, and a man in his 50s stepped out—it was none other than Brandon himself. Unlike the usual elderly doctors with graying h

"Dr. Quinn, how did it go?" Jaden asked on Xena's behalf as he sensed her tension.Brandon's scowl deepened, and he scoffed. "Did you really call me all the way here for this? He's fine. He'll be up and about in a few days." The renowned doctor was clearly annoyed at being summoned for what he considered a trivial matter. After all, Curtis only had some blocked circulation—nothing that required a master healer. Any decent hospital or regular traditional medical practitioner could have handled it. "He's... cured?" Xena stood frozen in disbelief while Jaden rushed to see Brandon off.When Jaden returned, he saw Xena still standing at the same spot. He urged, "You should go check on Mr. Summers Senior!"They went inside the room together. Although neither were doctors, they were impressive martial artists and could roughly assess someone's physical condition. Since Xena visited Curtis daily, she immediately noticed the dramatic difference. His complexion was rosy, and his breathi
