The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 291
Since Felix had promised to support her, Madeline stood up straight. She longed to prove herself, especially since she had found success in her work. She wanted to find love and a family full of warmth, too. She had known Felix since they were young. He wasn't one to make empty promises. Since he was standing up for her, he must be confident about himself.Lilian, however, sneered in disdain. "She's losing out? Are you even hearing yourself? There aren't many in Yartford who would dare to say that about joining our family. Ha! Birds of a feather flock together."Felix casually tossed a Diamond Card from Concord Bank onto the table, saying, "We're about the same age, right? Let's see how rich you really are."With a quick glance, Lilian recognized the card. After all, given her family's financial standing, there was no way she wouldn't recognize a Concord Bank Diamond Card. Her expression briefly changed, but then she scoffed."So, you aren't entirely useless. I guess you must be

"Hey, are you two here for dinner too? Are you here for dinner with Mr. Jackson?" Walter asked.Lilian hurriedly replied, "No. Is Sean having dinner here?""Yeah, he's having a meal with a few heavy drinkers. I was just on my way to grab more wine from the car. Anyway, I gotta run."Just then, Luke stopped him and asked, "Walter, do you… do you know that guy?"They had seen it clearly. Walter had stepped aside and respectfully bowed to Felix. It felt so surreal to them.Walter turned back to them, his brow furrowing. "Not exactly. Why are you asking? Do you know him?"If Walter didn't exactly know him, why was he acting so respectful to him?Luke's mind raced as he asked again, "Isn't he Felix Zeller?"Instantly, Walter's expression turned serious. "That's right! Did you offend him? Be honest; this could be serious."Lilian trembled slightly. She opened her mouth but seemed lost for words. Luke, however, laughed."Come on, Walter, relax. He's my girlfriend's cousin. There's n

Outside the restaurant, Felix and Madeline stopped in their tracks."Felix, thank you. Perhaps I've said that too many times, to the point it's lost its meaning," Madeline said.Felix smiled. "You don't need to thank me. Just make sure you don't look down on yourself."Madeline brushed her bangs back, looking calm and collected. "Don't worry. I won't do that again. However, I didn't expect Luke to stand up for me like that today."Felix nodded. "He's a good guy. It's hard for him to hold onto such values, especially given his wealthy background."At that moment, Luke and Lilian hurried over."Maddy, my… my sister wants to apologize to you," Luke said.Madeline raised an eyebrow. She looked at Lilian, who couldn't even meet her gaze. She acted so differently from her earlier haughty demeanor."Do I deserve your sister's apology? Since she has already spoken her mind, there's no point in her putting on an act."Felix, however, seemed to understand the change. It was likely becau

"Do you need me to feed you?" Zara asked. Felix looked at Zara, puzzled. For some reason, she seemed like a different person. She was suddenly acting warm and even showing a bit of a softer side."Don't act like that. You're making me nervous," Felix said.Felix devoured his breakfast, wanting to get through the meal quickly. Meanwhile, Zara sat across from him, resting her chin on her hands."Is it because you think I'm ugly?" she asked."No, not at all. I've been around many beautiful women, so I don't care if a person is beautiful or not. We are all given a life. Beauty has advantages, sure, but being less attractive doesn't mean you can't live a full life."Zara's eyes brightened. "Impressive. That's the most sincere answer I've heard from a man."By 10:00 am, people began arriving at the Traditional Medicine Association headquarters. This event was not open to the public, so the attendees were limited to those who witnessed the recommendation of nine candidates the previou

Following Timothy's pointed direction, Yvonne was stunned. If not for her training, she might have blurted out her true thoughts.Felix Zeller? It was actually Felix!Nala couldn't help but glance over as well, and a flicker of surprise crossed her gaze. This trial was kept highly confidential. Otherwise, they wouldn't have needed Timothy to ensure order and security. Not even Nala knew who the representative would be. Learning it was Felix was shocking as he was the fiancé she had dismissed. Not only was he a doctor, but his skills had also reached such a high level."Tim, you don't seem thrilled about this choice," Nala stated. She had known Timothy for years, so she easily understood his tone."Of course I'm thrilled. Why wouldn't I be?"Since Felix had already been selected, Timothy knew he shouldn't make discouraging remarks. They were all representing Dragonia, and unity was paramount."Take a seat for now. The team from Guneria just arrived, and one of them is a general,

Elliott, dressed in a white lab coat, was clearly one of the lowest-ranking members at the research institute despite his arrogance. He was a mere front for the team's efforts in developing the so-called "miracle drug". Guneria had deliberately chosen someone of such low standing as their representative, making their contempt for this competition evident."I'm Felix Zeller, representing Dragonia's traditional medicine scene," Felix announced, expressionless. The best way to deal with a provocateur was through actions, not speech.With a dismissive wave, Elliott gestured to a foreign man to approach."This is the patient we brought, as per the agreement. He has early-stage lung cancer. You're free to verify his condition."Similarly, William had a middle-aged man stand beside Felix. He was a 53-year-old male also with early-stage lung cancer, ensuring equal conditions for a fair comparison.Felix began examining the patient. Though he had already assessed the condition at a glanc

In most cases, nobody would reveal all their cards before a critical competition, especially with stakes this high. However, Elliott had done just that because he was overconfident. It showed his contempt for traditional medicine, and it was a tactic clearly planned in advance. Realistically, even in a hospital setting, the process of drawing blood and analyzing it would take longer than ten minutes; let alone curing a stubborn illness like cancer that claimed countless lives each year."We'll see," Felix responded, maintaining his composure. The Dragonian way was to act with overwhelming force only when necessary, leaving no room for the opponent to recover. Talking more would be pointless.A few minutes later, Elliott announced, "We've confirmed everything on our end. If you're ready, we can begin anytime."Just as Felix was about to speak, William abruptly stood up, saying, "Apologies, but Felix was a temporary replacement. The real representative has now arrived."What? Felix
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 298
Elliott looked utterly confident, convinced that as long as Dragonia didn't resort to breaking the rules by bringing in their seasoned traditional medicine masters, they had no chance of winning in the ten-minute timeframe. Just then, a young man stepped into the courtyard, exuding an air of pride and poise. Like Felix, he appeared to be around the same age."Is that him? Or are you planning to switch again?" Elliott asked with disdain, throwing in a bit of mockery.This time, William remained silent, letting the young man speak up once he had arrived."Do you think a mere miracle drug can challenge our thousands-of-years-old traditional medicine? Ridiculous!" the young man said.Oh? Elliott smirked, noticing that this new guy had quite an attitude. "Alright then, let the contest begin."But under everyone's watchful gaze, the young man stood there with his hands clasped behind his back."A contest? Are you even qualified? I am the direct disciple of Gerald Hoffman, and you thi
