The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 758
Before Rex could finish his sentence, he was kicked to the ground by the young man who had just gotten out of the car."You bastard! How dare you speak to Mr. Zeller like that? Apologize right now!"The young man who had gotten out of the car was Tristan Jacinto. When he heard Felix's voice, his body trembled in fear. After hearing Rex's words, he felt as though his soul had left his body.After his arm was ruined, Tristan was, of course, unwilling to accept it. Jeremiah was even more furious and, naturally, sought ways to take revenge on Felix. However, early in the morning, they had learned of the complete destruction of the entire Abyssal Surge Sect. They nearly lost their breath from shock.Abyssal Surge Sect was such a powerful force. Yet, it had been wiped out overnight. How dare Tristan and Jeremiah cause trouble? Their fear of Felix had deeply etched itself into their bones."Mr. Jacinto, you—" Rex, who had just gotten up, was still in shock when Tristan grabbed his collar

"You must have gone crazy from selling flower wreaths," Felix said bluntly, his words sharp and disdainful. Billy wasn't just acting arrogantly. He was downright annoying.Billy didn't care at all. Instead, he wore a serious expression and continued to say, "You'll suffer if you don't listen to my advice. Don't you care about that woman you treat like your little sister? Up until now, aside from the huge sum Queenie gave, have I ever lied to you about anything?"Felix frowned slightly as he carefully examined Billy's words. He took out his phone and dialed Melissa's number. No matter what, he needed to confirm the situation. So, he switched to speaker mode.The phone rang for a long time, and just as Felix began to feel uneasy, she finally answered."Felix?""Where did you go? Why the rush?""Hey, I didn't do it on purpose. There's really something urgent I need to handle. I'll be back in a few days. Don't miss me, okay?"Felix shot a disdainful glance at Billy before giving Mel

"I don't want to repeat myself, so get out!" Felix yelled.A wave of energy surged forward, causing Tom and his men to stagger back, retreating all the way outside the clinic."Boss!" one of his subordinates called out in fear. Tom's face darkened. "Make the call!" he ordered.He didn't dare to act rashly. Who would have thought that a doctor running a clinic would be a martial arts master? If they rushed in again, they wouldn't gain anything and might even end up getting hurt. He wasn't stupid.Noticing the flower wreath shop next to the clinic, Tom snapped his fingers. "Buy ten wreaths and put them in front of the clinic. Since this incident has blown up, let's make sure everyone knows that Tom is back.""Yes!"After the ten wreaths were placed, one of his subordinates suddenly rushed out, looking very distressed. "Boss, the shopkeeper is asking for 50,000 dollars for the ten wreaths."Tom thought he had heard wrong. Already in a bad mood, he immediately stormed into the wre

Turning his head, Felix noticed two Rolls-Royce Phantoms. The vehicles immediately attracted the attention of all the pedestrians."Can't get through?" he muttered to himself, thinking that these were probably reinforcements called by Tom. Without any further thought, he entered the clinic, not wanting to be the center of attention outside.Sure enough, as he entered, the two cars stopped just outside the clinic, and bodyguards wearing white gloves stepped out to open the back doors. Out came a woman.She was petite but had long legs, and her black, tight-fitting outfit added a touch of allure. Billy, who had originally intended to get back to the wreath business, took one glance at the woman and decided not to return to his flower shop.The woman walked into the clinic alone. When Felix saw her, he immediately realized, just like Billy, that she wasn't from Dragonia."Are you an Astorian? Can I help you?"The woman stopped and greeted Felix respectfully. "Dr. Zeller, my name i

"Get lost! If you're that concerned, go take care of it yourself," Felix said.Seeing Felix about to leave, Billy quickly picked up the box and put it away."I'm here to give you a piece of advice. The auction starts the day after tomorrow. Don't cause any trouble! Let's put it this way. You should know about the Golden Prime Auction, right?"Since it was about something important, Felix sat back down. "Yeah, and what's the connection?""Exactly! They're backed by the same force. The Golden Prime Auction is publicly known as the grandest auction in Dragonia. It attracts a lot of important people every time. "But the auction happening the day after tomorrow is for things that cannot be sold in the open. The items range widely, and many of them are even illegal."The fact that both were backed by the same group made Felix curious. "Are you planning to tell me who's behind it?"Billy nodded. "Yeah. Otherwise, I'd be worried you'd get yourself into trouble. Both these auctions are

Felix stood frozen, looking at Xena in disbelief. If it weren't for his senses, he would have thought someone was impersonating her.The matter of the Dragonspine had been known only to Gerald and his fellow apprentices. No one else knew about it. The only outsider who knew about it was the mysterious Billy. No one else could possibly know about it.Yet, Xena had just uttered the word "Dragonspine". How could he not be shocked?"It seems it's true, then."From Felix's expression, Xena got her confirmation and gestured for him to sit down. "You don't need to make excuses to pretend because I don't know much, either. In fact, I don't even know what the Dragonspine really is."Felix let out a bitter laugh and sat down on the couch. "Xena, I really can't tell you anything, but how do you know about it?"Xena pointed at the air and said, "I was told by the higher-ups because the headquarters has a piece of the Dragonspine."What? The headquarters had a piece of Dragonspine? Felix w
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 764
"Mira, is that you?" Felix asked."Yes. I also learned by chance that the headquarters has a piece of the Dragonspine. After thinking it over, I realized the only way to obtain it was through this method. You won't blame me, right?"Mira was the legendary chief commander at the headquarters, so it made sense that she could obtain such information and take action accordingly."I won't blame you. After all, there really was no other way."Mira continued, "Although it's only for half a year, you need to be prepared. Over the past year, Dragonia has had many unexplainable strange occurrences. Ordinary people don't know because the headquarters has suppressed the information to avoid panic. "During your six-month term, the headquarters will definitely exploit your full value. Any task assigned will require your utmost focus. Do you understand?"Hearing the concern in Mira's voice, Felix was deeply grateful."Yes. Don't worry, Mira. Since I made a promise, I will definitely do my bes
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 765
Felix's neck veins bulged, and he glared at Tom with fury, wanting nothing more than to flay him alive."You beast! These are five lives you're responsible for!" To frame him, five people had to die. If the situation hadn't escalated so much, he would've rushed at Tom without a second thought.However, Tom just sat down casually, a smile still plastered on his face. "Indeed, five lives were lost, but what does that have to do with me? Didn't you hear them? They said it was you, the quack doctor, who killed them. You sure know how to make wild accusations."Crossing his legs, Tom's smile slowly faded. "Aren't you quite something? I told you not to save Kurt, but you didn't listen. You even used a bit of your martial power to push me out. "Now, do you see the consequences of provoking me? Soon, the families of these five will come, and then we'll see what you do."Felix stood there, stunned. For the first time, he encountered someone as ruthless as Tom, who didn't even give the v

Bob did not say much. He kept wondering if Felix and Wendy were just being polite. He was absolutely certain he would not be exposed. The waiter would never admit to intentionally causing trouble, and no investigation could possibly reveal anything. He might as well keep things as messy as possible. Less than ten minutes passed before Angie arrived. She did not even greet Felix, immediately rushing to the Azure VIP Room with Ian. Felix remained in the main hall. It was past the lunch rush, so the restaurant was almost empty and quiet. Suddenly, Bob heard Felix's voice say, "I won't be here for more than a few days, so you really didn't need to use these tactics." "Mr. Zeller, were you speaking to me?" "You know exactly what I mean. Don't do this again." Felix was not naive. He could tell from how Bob had been helpful in the main hall but went silent in the private room. Something was definitely fishy. But Felix was totally focused on the Malevolent Phantoms now, and he

Just as Felix turned, the bathroom door opened, and a woman walked out. Seeing how the hem of her dress was wet, it was clearly from washing off spilled wine. "Mr. Zeller?" With just a glance, Felix was instantly wordless. Of all people, it was actually Wendy. "Oh, Wendy. What a coincidence!" Seeing Felix in his professional attire, Wendy was stunned. "What are you doing?" "I'm working as a front desk manager at this restaurant." Hearing this, Wendy remembered Felix was currently running important tasks nationwide. So, this made perfect sense. "Since we know each other, let's just drop this. The waiter didn't mean to cause trouble. There's no need to make such a big deal." Franz had already walked over at that moment. But he was shocked to see Wendy knew the front desk manager and was even addressing him so respectfully. "Got it, Mr. Zeller. Sorry for the trouble." Felix nodded and left. Bob followed, but a bad feeling crept into his mind. How did Felix know Franz's

Sally heard the intercom call, too, and her admiration for Bob reached new heights. Everyone in the restaurant knew that for VIP rooms like the Azure Room, customer complaints could not be handled by a front desk manager. Only the general manager—like Ian—could deal with it—and if he couldn't, Angie herself would have to step in.This was clearly Bob's setup. If not, Felix would not have had to go over. Bob had taken advantage of Felix being new and clueless about the rules.But his guts were something else. He was actually sacrificing one or two waiters just to go up against the boss' daughter. Was this really just about a front desk manager position anymore? In the Azure VIP Room, there were only two people by the massive table. A waiter knelt on the floor, body shaking uncontrollably. Just this scene told Felix the guests were definitely high-profile. "Who are you?"The young man with a powerful presence immediately frowned when he saw Felix."Hello, sir. I'm the front des
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1202
In the morning, Felix visited the dental clinic where the two women had their teeth cleaned. He found nobody suspicious there. He had already reviewed the relevant videos. They only had a routine teeth cleaning with barely any interaction. Any hope of finding a lead this way was completely crushed. After leaving, he received a call from Angie and rushed to an incredibly luxurious restaurant. "Felix, how about working as a front desk manager here?" she asked.What should have been a simple job offer now felt like she was tentatively seeking his permission. "Sure. But Ms. Sinclair, I have one condition."Angie smiled and said, "Go ahead.""I have some personal matters to deal with here. So, when I need to leave to handle something, I hope I can get time off normally." Angie thought that was nothing. She glanced at the middle-aged man beside her. "No problem. This is the restaurant's general manager, Ian Goodwin. Just give him a call when you want to leave." Ian immediately

Felix raced to a repair shop in Kashmere. Upon reaching the premises, he quickly jumped the fence and entered. According to Chloe, she had been held captive here. She had barely managed to grab a phone and call for help. No one could possibly be interested in her smell, so Felix genuinely hoped the Malevolent Phantom would show up.The moment he entered the yard, all the lights blazed on, turning the place as bright as day. "I'm sorry. I'm really sorry!"Chloe emerged, looking disheveled. Reeco—the man from the barbecue stand—was grabbing her hair. About 20 other guys surrounded Felix with weapons in hand, wearing menacing grins. "Did you think I'd have to visit you myself? Look at you, walking right into our trap!" Felix was utterly disappointed. He'd completely forgotten about these insignificant men, and now, they had wasted his time. "I'm here. Let her go."Surprisingly, Reeco shoved Chloe to the ground and waved his hand. "Get him!" The first man charged with a massiv
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1200
Felix nodded and said, "Exactly. Let's investigate quickly." Because of the Malevolent Phantoms, headquarters' main focus was now cases related to them. Regular cases were handed over to law enforcement so personnel could be mobilized incredibly fast. After leaving the scene, Felix went home to wait for the results. At sunset, Marley arrived. "You were right, Mr. Zeller. The young woman with the lingering fragrance definitely had body odor before her death." Felix got excited, reviewing the materials while asking, "Did you guys figure out why they were at the abandoned building?" That was the first crime scene, and Felix was sure of it. The fact that these people would go to such a remote location seemed suspicious. "Yes, we did. They would occasionally record videos about paranormal stuff. They go to scary places, then post online to gain attention and make some extra cash. "They had finished filming at the abandoned building and were probably preparing to leave when the
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1199
It had only been one day since the A-tier Malevolent Phantom had last attacked. Was it losing its mind?Felix's face darkened. He didn't say a word. He just stood up and hung up the phone. "Sorry. I've got an urgent matter to handle." Normally, Angie would have thought this was incredibly rude. He had come asking for a favor, yet he was leaving so abruptly. But after what just happened, everything had changed. "Lindsay, did you really not know Dreamscape is Felix's cousin?" Lindsay gave a bitter smile. "Do I look like I know? Even if I did, I'm not the type to go begging for help." Her frustrated smile just deepened Angie's confusion. "Wow, you've just thrown me a major curveball! Felix has a connection like that, and I'm trying to find him a job? It's like teaching a professional chef how to boil water." But Lindsay saw things differently. "Angie, I can't say I know Felix super well. But from our school days and our recent encounters, I can vouch for his character. "The f

Chad and Lindsay were absolutely sure that it was Dreamscape's voice. Felix asked, "Hey, do you know Lindsay?" "Yeah, she's quite good at singing. Her technique is solid, and she nails the emotional delivery. She's got a bright future ahead."Lindsay immediately covered her mouth and cried. If her comment was posted online, it would instantly boost her market value by tenfold or even hundredfold. After all, it was something Dreamscape had said. "So, here's the thing. Lindsay's my old friend, and her real dream is acting. I was wondering if you could help introduce her and help her make that dream happen." Chad was excited. Dreamscape might be just a singer, but her status in the entertainment world was unparalleled. Even a casual comment from her carried massive weight. "Sure, I'll send you my manager's number. Have Lindsay contact him. I'll put in a good word, but tell her not to forget her main gig—she really can sing." "Got it! Thanks, then. Bye!" After hanging up, th

Everyone looked at Felix, their eyes showing different reactions. "Felix, thanks for your good intentions. But sometimes, we just can't make things go the way we want them to." Lindsay quickly tried to smooth things over, knowing Felix meant well. But sometimes, well-meaning lies just would not cut it. Yet, Felix spoke again, "I know someone who can probably solve your current crisis. So, you really don't need to do something you don't want to do." Chad could not hold back anymore. He wondered what kind of friend Felix was to talk big so casually. "Listen up, you brat! The worst thing you can learn in life is bragging. For every lie you tell, you'll need a hundred to cover it up. Got it? "Stop giving Lindsay false hope. You're just making things worse." Angie frowned, too. Though she knew Felix meant well, how could this possibly help? "I wonder if Dreamscape could solve your problem." Dreamscape? The two who were about to leave turned back, their eyes filled with dis
