Xena practically roared those words. Even Felix heard them clearly while sitting beside Jaden. He felt moved and surprised by how much she cared about him. Xena never ran from problems. Just as she had been firm in her previous stance, she was ready to face anything together now that she had decided to be with Felix. This only made Jaden angrier. The more she cared about Felix, the more it infuriated him. "Xena, do I need to remind you how your cousin Ted died and why your uncle Perry committed suicide? Have you forgotten all that? And now you're still protecting Felix, who's your enemy. I really don't understand what's going through your head." After Felix's warning last time, Xena investigated his claims and discovered that Ted had indeed tried to harm Felix a few times using vicious methods. He only failed because of Felix's strength. As for Perry, his overly indulgent parenting had led to all this. "Stop with the pointless talk. Are you releasing him or not?" Xena asked b

"Mr. Black, Ms. Morgan is here to see Jaden," a subordinate reported to Cecil.Zara? After seeing Cecil's nod, Jaden said, "Let her in."Her sudden visit at this hour gave Jaden an uneasy feeling. Zara greeted Cecil when she entered, "Mr. Black." Cecil said with a smile, "Zara, you must have urgent business at this hour. Go ahead, I won't leave." Hearing this, Zara turned to Jaden and got straight to the point, asking, "Jaden, would you please release Felix?" Jaden's expression darkened. Damn, was Felix some kind of celebrity? He had barely taken him, yet people already knew and were pleading for his release. "No way." A flash of disappointment crossed Zara's face as she continued, "You promised me you wouldn't clash with Felix again. Are you going to break your word to me too?" Shaking his head, Jaden replied seriously, "I'm not breaking my promise. This time, Felix killed one of our disciples from Crimson Sage Sect. As an elder of the sect, how could I stand and do nothin
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 395
In the big courtyard of Crimson Sage Sect, Felix stood on a raised platform. He was flanked by two sect elders who had clear orders to kill him at any suspicious movement. The thunderous sound of helicopter blades grew louder as it approached. Looking up, Felix guessed it must be Xena arriving. Even after her phone call with Jaden had proved futile, Xena still came to Crimson Sage Sect in person for Felix's sake. Whatever Jaden's plans were, this couldn't be good. As the helicopter landed in the courtyard, Xena emerged alone without any backup. Her eyes immediately found Felix, and she walked straight toward him. "You shouldn't have come," he said.Xena bit her lower lip but kept walking. "I don't need you telling me what to do. Keep quiet!" She feared Felix might say something that would further anger the sect members. Regardless of what really happened, they could not deny that a disciple from Crimson Sage Sect was dead. As she reached the platform, Jaden blocked her pa

"Do you really mean it?" Xena's eyes revealed nothing about what she was truly thinking.Jaden nodded. "Of course. Our sect leader and Supreme Elder are here as witnesses." Cecil added, "Indeed. Jaden brought him in, and according to our sect's rules, he has absolute authority over how he wants to deal with Felix." As Xena was about to speak, Felix cut in, "Get out of here, Xena! I don't need a woman sacrificing herself to save me." When Xena tried to respond, Felix roared with veins bulging in his neck, "Damn it! I said get out! Right now!" Xena finally turned to Felix and smiled. Her smile was so enchanting that everyone, including Jaden, was mesmerized. "There were many misunderstandings between us in the past. Even though I still believe I wasn't wrong, I've always felt bad about how things went. So let me do something meaningful for you this time." As her smile faded, Xena spoke softly, "Release Felix, and I'll marry you." "Release him!"Just as Jaden was savoring

With those words, Cecil had asserted Crimson Sage Sect's status and his resolve in this matter. But at the same time, he had also insulted the two master healers, Xander and Wesley. Jaden breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing how the other sect members remained silent after Cecil spoke, he could confirm that they were on his side. "What if you add me to the equation?" Suddenly, Zara spoke up, which made Cecil's eyes flicker. "Zara! Why are you stirring up trouble?" Jaden asked.Zara gave Jaden a disappointed look and replied, "Don't call me Zara anymore! Love should be mutual between a man and a woman, yet you're using such dirty tactics to pursue someone. From this moment on, our friendship is over!" Damn it! So be it, then. Once he managed to marry Xena, Zara would be nothing compared to him. Before long, he might even become the leader of Martial Alliance. Xena's case was a little trickier to him because of her position. If it were any other woman from a prestigious or wealth

Glaring at Felix, Wesley scolded, "Quiet, boy! It would be one thing if we hadn't known about this. But now that we do, we absolutely cannot allow such a despicable thing to happen! How is this any different from executing a scientist after they create a groundbreaking invention?" Just as he finished, another voice rang out. "Wow! Bravo!" Two more figures appeared, which made the members of Crimson Sage Sect ogle in shock. These newcomers were true big shots. They were the third and fourth best master healers in Dragonia, Brandon and Seth. It was Brandon who had spoken, and from his tone, he seemed to have been watching for a while. Even Cecil's heart began racing. "Cecil, we once wandered the martial world together as brothers. I wanted to show you some respect and to see if there was still room for redemption. But it seems you and your entire sect are more shameless than I expected," Brandon said.Their arrival made Jaden back several steps away. He knew everything was about

Everyone had left, but the members of Crimson Sage Sect remained rooted to the spot. Felix's final words echoed in their minds like thunder even after a long time. "Mr. Black, could he use these master healers' connections against our sect?" Jaden was the most devastated of all. Felix had not moved a muscle throughout the ordeal, yet Jaden had been forced to release him. It was a thousand times more humiliating than being defeated in combat. Cecil looked at him with disappointment in his eyes. "I've always told you to be vigilant and consider every angle. If you had properly investigated Felix's actual background, would our sect be in such an embarrassing position now?" After this incident, Crimson Sage Sect would definitely be blacklisted by those master healers in Dragonia. Not only that, Cecil had to use up Silas' favor. He had really lost big time. Jaden hung his head low, not daring to speak. He had miscalculated this time. Though his fellow apprentices did not dare say

Without his martial powers to sustain him, Felix suddenly felt exhausted from being up all night. He collapsed into bed as soon as he reached his bedroom and slept until noon. He drove to Yardley Dining for a quick lunch, then immediately began working on cultivating the Dragonspine. On the way, he called Jack, who was relieved to hear he was safe. They arranged to meet for dinner tomorrow. Felix also hoped to use this chance to contact Yvonne. After another four-hour session, Felix emerged from the pit. "Vivian, thank you for putting up with all this over the past month." Vivian felt helpless. "Don't mention it, Felix. It's my duty." She had never met someone of such high status who remained so humble. It made her feel embarrassed. Felix sighed. "My body's so much weaker than before." Whether from cultivating the Dragonspine or something else, Felix found himself hungry again. Not wanting to eat at Yardley again, he found a small pizza place and devoured three pizzas befor

As soon as Chelsea's finger touched a card, it turned and displayed the number one. Hendrix immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Although there were no longer any tricks at this point, it all depended on their strengths and luck.If anyone met Chelsea in the first round, then it would definitely affect the morale of the rest of the battles. After Chelsea, several people jumped out simultaneously, including Lachlan and Felix. When Felix touched a card, it revealed the number three.Hendrix quickly frowned and looked over. There was another person he didn't want to fight—Felix.During the two days of rest, he talked a lot with Yvian. Of course, he had learned some things, like the cooperation with Lyle and Felix. This made him feel unsettled, but he didn't expect that they would meet.Once everyone had drawn their numbers, Chelsea and another player who had drawn the same number stayed on the island. The rest temporarily left the island."Begin!"The fight between the two start

Holly was right—Felix could no longer question it. He smiled bitterly as he realized he had no choice in the matter. He thought for a while before suggesting, "What about this, if you're really part of their family, come back to Earth with me after the competition. Can you do that?"Holly agreed willingly. "Of course, I'm looking for family. That isn't an issue."Once Holly left, she contacted someone. A look of astonishment flashed in her eyes as she read Felix's information."Oh? I didn't expect this guy to be so well-known! Has Star Alliance already contacted him and offered a position as the Elder of External Affairs?"Given this information, it was evident just how powerful Holly's connections were. After all, not many people in Star Alliance knew of it.Since they were offering him the position of Elder of External Affairs, it seemed that Felix had already formed the Way of Mind. Holly didn't expect someone from such a barbaric planet to be so powerful."How interesting

Felix's expression fell immediately, and he tried to push the woman away. "Are you crazy? Get out!"However, as he closed the door, the woman stopped it from shutting. "You're a contestant in this year's Rank-Ascending Competition, right? I can sense that there's someone in Star Alliance protecting you."But there are some things you can't avoid," she said. "Either you take this chance to talk to me, or I'll ask myself. It shouldn't be difficult to find out where you're from."Felix realized the seriousness of her words as he gazed at the woman. She could sense the higher-ups secretly protecting him, but at least she couldn't figure out who he was—in other words, this woman was extremely powerful.No matter her purpose, if she really went to Earth, who could stop her? Since the Rank-Ascending Competition hadn't ended yet, and with Earth still a mess, who could stop the invasion?"Fine, come in," Felix relented.The corners of her mouth curled into a smile. "Hahaha! This is the at

"The Lord?" Felix wondered. But Jerry continued, "The Lord—the deputy leader of the Star Alliance. He's one of the champions of the Rank-Ascending Competition and one of the current fighters of the Star Alliance—Tyrone Linetti, nicknamed The Tyrant."When you were on the ninth floor of the Tower of Babel, he couldn't sleep a wink."Felix was shocked by the revelation. It turned out that he had no privacy at all, even in the tower. Besides the Spirit of the Tower, Star Alliance could also observe him.Before he could respond, Jerry nodded sagely. "Yes, Lord Tyrant discovered that you've successfully condensed the Way of Mind! Otherwise, why would he tell me to recruit you personally?"Sure enough, Felix's Way of Mind was discovered."You're so young, and you'd definitely rank among the top three in Star Alliance's records," Jerry said. "Hell, you'd even be better than Lord Tyrant! That is why Star Alliance is willing to make an exception for you."They're offering you the positi

However, Felix was the only one who sat there unmoving. Julius quickly pulled him up."That's Jerry Gonzalez, one of the top three elders in the Star Alliance. You can't even fathom how powerful he is! How dare you keep sitting there?" Julius muttered.Felix hated having to worship the powerful, but there were times when he couldn't help it. He watched as Scopulus bent over in a bow, greeting Jerry respectfully. That told Felix everything he needed to know."Mr. Gonzalez, what are you doing here?" Scopulus asked warmly. However, Jerry smiled and completely ignored him. Instead, he walked straight to Felix."Felix! I'm Jerry Gonzalez from Star Alliance. Are you free to chat? Let's head into a more private area."Everyone in the bar watched with bated breath, and their mouths fell agape as they watched the scene unfold. One of the top three elders of Star Alliance came all the way here to find a contender. This has never happened before.Even if there was a contender from a pow

Xenon helplessly said, "Dude, it doesn't matter if you sign the agreement. They've met their goal as long as you meet Lachlan in the round! If you lose to Lachlan, it doesn't matter if you live or die—you won't be able to save the Earth."At that point, you can't go back to Earth, so where will you go? Even if you run, you won't be able to escape death." Xenon was right—the Orions wanted to kill Felix quickly in the past so he wouldn't hinder their plans to invade Earth. …As Felix followed the two, he experienced the entirety of the Star Alliance headquarters. There was advanced technology that Felix had never seen before, as well as delicious food. "Felix, don't you want to check that place out? There are women from all races in the universe. You can do them however you want. Besides, Star Alliance will pay for it all," Julius teased.As a man, Felix naturally wanted to experience it all. But as a man with a family, he didn't want to. After a full day, no other families

Just then, Yvian interrupted, "Dad, since Felix is this sincere, I think we should tell him some things in advance—to prove our sincerity."After a pause, Lyle nodded, and Yvian looked at Felix, saying, "What I said about Star Alliance was a very big maybe. Because of your current situation, they may not even come to help you. If they do, I can't predict what they will do."But one thing is for sure—if you need Star Alliance's help, you must join them. My family can't compare to them. I believe you understand that." Felix looked a bit unsure but smiled. He replied, "Thank you for telling me the truth. Let's take a look at the contract."Lyle's eyes glinted mysteriously. He knew that Yvian's words convinced Felix. Sure enough, with someone like that, Lyle could only treat him with sincerity—lies and deceit were meaningless to Felix.After reading the contract, Felix confirmed that it was exactly as Lyle had said. There was not even a word out of line."Alright, I'll sign it," F

"No idea. Oh, right. My dad told me to check in with him, too," Julius said.Julius lifted his wrist, and a white wristband flashed briefly. Then, he closed his eyes.It was a communication device developed by Star Alliance. It was way more advanced than anything on Earth—it could handle video, voice, and even silent messaging—meaning it allowed direct brain-to-brain communication without anyone around knowing you were chatting.Right now, Julius was silently talking to Trent. "Father, Lyle just approached Felix to recruit him. What do you think about that?"To his surprise, Trent chuckled on the other end. "His instincts are still as sharp as ever. Don't worry about it. Lyle has always trusted his intuition, and so far, he's never been wrong. "His move doesn't affect us. You already have the upper hand. Like I said before, just stay friends with Felix. As long as you maintain that bond, it's as good as recruiting him for our family."When Julius thought back to how Felix had sa

Julius and Xenon exchanged a look and chuckled."Do you know why they gave you two days of free time?" Julius asked.Felix shook his head and signaled for him to get to the point."Among the ten finalists, those without a strong family background are prime targets for recruitment. Hence, you might be one of them," Julius said.Felix thought it made sense—it wasn't all that different from how things worked back on Earth."Recruitment by families? Do they expect you to change your last name or something?" Felix asked.Julius laughed. "Of course not. Every strong martial artist has their pride. No one would agree to something like that. The ones they're interested in are people with limitless potential, like you. Since you come from a developing planet, you have no resources—you're a perfect target."He added, "For instance, if my family wanted to recruit you, we'd propose an alliance. You wouldn't have to give up anything—you would only need to agree to a contract saying you'd hel
