Hearing those words, Kyro shook his head. "It's true that Reagan could easily do it. But why would he? The Steeles are one of his loyal dogs, so why cut off his own arm without cause?" Luna pondered before adding, "As you said, Grandpa, there's no reason for him to do that now. But from what I know, Reagan is extremely arrogant and profit-driven. Given proper motivation, discarding the Steeles wouldn't trouble him." She turned to Felix. "What you may not know, Dr. Zeller, is that Reagan is one of our nation's three most powerful figures. The Steeles only rose to their current status after gaining his favor, which happened in such a short time and is very different from old families like ours. "Only Reagan could gather them all as you wish. If he approves, even their total elimination could be dismissed as a mere fire, with no media daring to report otherwise. The impact would be minimal." Felix stroked his chin thoughtfully before asking, "Does Reagan have any particular obsess

Felix smiled wryly. Francis was the mystic from King Aurelius' court over two millennia ago, and his identity remained a mystery. If anything of his had survived until now, it would be among the rarest treasures imaginable. Finding such an item seemed impossible. "Let me ask around first." Felix's original plan had been to investigate and eliminate targets one by one. But Nala's data matched Luna's—there were over a hundred Steele members. They weren't just abroad but scattered across various Astorian cities. How could he hunt them all? After a few deaths, the Steeles would go into hiding for sure. Given their connection to Reagan, even a dog's death would warrant investigation. Once Astorian authorities got involved, complications would multiply. Felix was not confident he was invincible worldwide yet, and Reagan's true strength remained unknown. The situation could turn dangerous. He had rushed here from Dragonia because he was furious to see so many countrymen used as te

Nala was mysterious enough herself, coming from "that place". Her Shadow Mask alone was extraordinary. Perhaps she really could help. But truthfully, Felix wanted to avoid any further entanglement with her, even as a last resort. Yet the faces of his sleeping countrymen on that bus compelled him to dial her number. "Felix, how are you doing there?" Even Nala had not expected his call. "I'm here to ask about Francis Thane from King Aurelius' time. Can you get anything he left behind? Anything authentic will do, but preferably not martial art techniques." Felix was not foolish enough to strengthen the Shadowstalker Emperor and his shadowstalkers. He held no goodwill toward Astoria, after all. "Give me ten minutes." Nala's efficiency was impressive. She called back quickly. "I have something! It's a brush Francis once used, but it's an extraordinary one—even Oceanus Realm masters couldn't break it. "Don't worry. It's been studied extensively, and there's no hidden power. It'

Felix stopped in a clearing within the vast forest behind the Starfire residence. He had halted so abruptly because he sensed someone powerful tracking him, though he could not identify who. "Are you done running?" The voice reached him before its owner. An elderly man in white robes appeared 30 feet away, his ruddy face wearing a faint smile. "You're from Elders' Council, aren't you?" With such power and Dragonian features, it could not be anyone else. "Yes. We're old acquaintances in a way. Though this is our first meeting, you've survived our assassination attempts longer than anyone." Felix smiled. "I thought the Council just had extensive intelligence in Dragonia. It's impressive that you can track me abroad so quickly." He meant it sincerely. But the old man clasped his hands, smiling wider. "Thank you. Of course we can. Why else would a martial artist like me join an organization?" Having confirmed his identity, Felix cut to the chase. "What makes you think you alone

"Come on! Aren't you also a Blood Realm master? Let's have a friendly match!" Felix grinned, finding this old man more interesting than the previous ones sent after him. To his surprise, the old man frantically waved his hands after regaining consciousness. He rambled, "No, no. I won't fight you! Everyone knows you can fight above your level. Even though we're in the same realm, if we fight, I'm dead for sure."Felix scoffed. "As if not fighting would mean you're leaving here alive!"Suddenly, the old man stood straight and raised his right hand to the sky with a solemn expression. "I, Selmer Zink, swear to heaven that from this moment on, I quit Elders' Council and will follow Felix Zeller's lead. May lightning strike me if I break this oath!"What the hell? Felix was dumbfounded, wondering if things could really be this simple.He blurted out, "Are you pulling my leg?"Seeing Felix's irritation, Selmer spoke faster, "Sir, trust me. I've truly left Elders' Council. The Council

Felix looked up and squinted at the strange sight above. It really did seem like the moon had fallen from the sky. At first, it drifted slowly, but its speed had suddenly multiplied several times over."Interesting technique. Is that a sword move?"As Felix quipped, Selmer thrust out his palm, sending a silver light that dispersed into nothingness.Felix lightly stepped back several dozen yards. Almost instantly, a cold light swept through where he had been standing, completely enveloping Selmer. "Not a sword strike—it's an energy blade, and a skilled one at that," Felix noted. This attack targeting Selmer was far more powerful than Micah from the Starfires. Felix could hear an unfamiliar language roaring from the attacker's direction, distinctively Astorian, though he had no idea what they were saying. Then, another voice rang out—this one comprehensible. It confirmed something else. There was not just one attacker. There were two."Dragonians sure are bold! How dare you cau

Felix wanted to slap himself for being so cautious since arriving in Astoria, only to discover this was the level of the Shadowstalker Emperor. He finally understood that while warriors needed to be careful within Dragonian borders due to hidden masters, they could dominate freely once abroad."So, you're the damn Shadowstalker Emperor?" Felix could not help but laugh as he slapped Reagan across the face. Reagan dared not show any anger and just pleaded, "Please calm down, sir!"Within moments, Felix used the Soul Sealing Needle again, and both Reagan and his partner became as docile as kittens. "Listen well! From now on, if I hear about any families causing trouble in Dragonia, not only will they die, but you'll also suffer the same fate."Reagan gulped hard, terrified to his core. Though he had never heard of the Soul Sealing Needle, he felt its soul-crushing pain firsthand. He knew his life was at stake and quickly exclaimed, "I guarantee this will never happen again, sir!"

Felix was surprised that the Steele family was making the first move. He asked, "I thought the Starfires ranked above the Steele family. How dare they show up like this?"Micah explained, "That's what confuses us, too. It's just Mr. Ollie Steele from the Steele family. He's not even anyone important, yet he's acting so arrogantly. We've never seen anything like this."Felix headed inside without further questions, finally about to meet Ollie, who had been in charge of Gray City in Dragonia. Inside, he found Luna facing off against a sleazy-looking young man. "Ollie, you're being ridiculous!" Luna snapped.Ollie sneered, "Ridiculous? Luna, you used to have the right to say that, but now your family's fate is in our hands. Why act so pure in front of me?"He reached out his hand and added, "Spend one night with me, and I'll make sure your family is treated well." Luna slapped his hand away and stood up, her presence still commanding. "I'd like to see what gives the Steele family

Bonnie was obviously stronger in terms of soul mastery—perhaps it was why Felix couldn't sense her realm despite being in his domain. There seemed to be a strange energy that surrounded her.He didn't dare to use his marital artist techniques to attack. Although he had the Infinite Shield, if he wasn't careful, there was a chance to damage his soul. That would be completely catastrophic. In the battle between souls, it was necessary to be completely focused—they were all written in the book given by Billy. "You're quite smart. I thought you were going to attack me with your martial arts." She sounded almost disappointed. She had thought Felix was just another untrained brute, that he would instinctively use his martial arts to fight her. If he did, she would undoubtedly have a chance to beat him."Enough!" Felix exclaimed as he launched the first attack. Lumen flew out, but Bonnie wasn't afraid at all.Something flew out of her body as she exchanged blows with the Lumen. As ex

Felix had been wondering about how he was going to find the Eight Guardians—but he didn't expect one to show up right in front of him. It seemed like Karina's last attack hadn't been too severe. Otherwise, how did Ashton recover so quickly?In order to rescue Melissa and Ronan, Gerald had set a goal, and Felix had to execute it no matter what. Despite the power of the Eight Guardians, he must take them all down.Without another word, a domain immediately surrounded them, and Felix frowned."You're not Ashton."The energy exuded by this man was definitely of a martial artist, but once in the domain, Felix immediately realized that it was just a man in the early stages of the Transcendent Realm. How the hell could he be Ashton?Before he finished his words, Felix leaped toward the man and grabbed him by the neck. "Tell me! Who are you? Why are you impersonating Ashton?"The man immediately dropped the pretense and fear overtook his expression. "Spare me! It was a woman who tampered

Yolanda smiled bitterly. The idea made sense, but she rejected the thought. "Forget it. You know how large of a sum my financial crisis is! It's 5 billion dollars!"Even the bank blacklisted us and it's impossible to get a loan. Besides, whether it's individuals or companies, who in Monaire has the strength to come up with 5 billion dollars on the spot—except for that bastard."She sighed. "I don't deny that Felix is most likely filthy rich, but 5 billion dollars? That's impossible."Felix sat in the car outside of the tennis court. Everything had been planned after his brief investigation, so, of course, there would be no reason for failure. After discovering their family background, he realized the Zuckerbergs weren't ordinarily rich.It was no wonder they could prevent Serena from marrying into the Warlock family back then. They had everything. It was just a pity that Yolanda's father meddled in the import-export business. Initially, it was successful, creating a big name for th

Yolanda replied in confusion, "What? What do you mean?"Felix smiled. "I used to have a classmate with the same name from elementary school."Lars' expression darkened at that. "Boy, this is getting ridiculous. You're using an outdated way of flirting with her. Why not say you grew up with someone called Yolanda Zuckerberg too?"Honestly, Yolanda had felt the same. Her short hair, fair skin, and long legs often led to many boys chasing after her. She had seen and heard many ways to pick up lines. If the tennis ball was an accident, then exchanging contacts wasn't too much."No, I used to go to Monaire Elementary and there was definitely a girl called Yolanda Zuckerberg there…" Felix said after a pause—acting as if he was thinking hard.Yolanda turned to him dumbfounded. Just as Lars was about to reply, she interjected, "Monaire Elementary? Which class are you in?""3rd Class."As Yolanda thought carefully, her expression changed. "Oh my! There really was a kid in my class call

Without wasting any time, Felix quickly changed into a set of sportswear before heading to a tennis court in Monaire. He was exchanging fast-paced shots with a staff on the court. A man and woman were sweating profusely in the field right next to him during their intense game. The woman was particularly fair, and her long legs often caught the eye of the men walking by. That was Yolanda Zuckerberg, Sophia's daughter.That was Felix's target. Since the family didn't want to accept help, he needed to make sure that they took his help without guilt through legitimate cooperation. Zion had clearly said that he initially planned to form a relationship and help them discreetly.However, he was stopped by Serena. If it was a situation that couldn't be excused, Sophia would definitely find out Serena was helping them behind the scenes and refused all help. This immediately made Felix give up on his initial idea as he had thought the same.After all, operating from the shadows would save h

Felix instantly felt a strong force pulling at the depths of his soul. The Infinite Shield immediately blocked the attack, protecting its master."You!" The little girl, who had been sobbing, now widened her eyes in horror. She raised her head and turned to Felix in disbelief."Goddamn it!" Felix would've never thought the little girl was also a Malevolent Phantom—this was simply impossible to guard against! Without another second of hesitation, he launched a barrage of attacks. The little girl was reduced to the verge of death in a matter of seconds."There are actually people who were soul masters? How unbelievable," she said.Despite being reduced to only a head, the little girl's expression was devoid of emotion except looking appalled. Goddamn it!Felix's expression was terribly gloomy at this moment. By all rights, he should've killed this B-tier Malevolent Phantom—but he held himself back. He didn't forget what Donna had said.If Felix killed it now, the information on

Zion's daughter-in-law, Serena Wilde, had always felt guilty for the fallout. Her parents had passed early on in her life, and her older sister, Sophia Wilde, had helped raise Serena. Now, for the first time, Serena was speaking up for Sophia.According to Zion, Sophia's family had always been quite well-off. Her husband's business was stable, and they made quite a name for themselves. Unfortunately, they recently experienced a financial crisis and were on the verge of bankruptcy. However, they were still stubborn and wouldn't ask for help—especially the help of a sister who had long been cut off. Serena wanted Felix to find subtle ways to help them through this crisis. Felix thought about it and felt a little helpless.It was a tricky request, but Zion was sincere. If he truly wanted to, he could easily resolve the issues with their family's power in a matter of seconds. However, with the old man's temper, Felix couldn't do anything but obey.Besides, the Malevolent Phantoms were

The photo wasn't particularly clear. It looked like it was taken from a dashcam. However, it was more than enough for Felix to recognize Ophelia. He thought about how much she had helped him.If Ophelia hadn't figured out the rules of the Three Forbidden Lands, he would've been in big trouble if he had foolishly gone to Misty Ridge first—so how could she do such a thing?"Do you know this woman? Is she also from the Hall of Souls?" Felix asked.Yelena had been telling him everything she knew as she didn't have a choice now. She shook her head. "I don't. She's not from the Hall of Souls either."I just received the order from a Green Soul Scout to pick up the equipment from her. She drove a van and everything she provided was in the van. She left after confirming my identity. We didn't exchange a single word after that."Felix took a deep breath and put aside the matter for the time being. He would definitely ask more when he had the chance. "So tell me about the Malevolent Phant
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1232
Since the woman, Yelena Myres, was willing to cooperate, Felix was also happy to oblige. This could save him a lot of time! Otherwise, if he directly got information from her soul, he would be overwhelmed by it and have to filter it himself."You most likely outrank Viper, right?"Disdain immediately surfaced on her face as she laughed. "Viper? Hah! He's nothing but a small fry who works for us. Those martial artists aren't even worthy to join the Hall of Souls. Despite being the lowest-ranking Blue Soul member, I'm still a formal member of the Hall of Souls."As far as she knew, the Hall of Souls ranked from lowest to highest according to color. There were five, ranging from Blue, Green, Cyan, Black, and White—Yelena was the lowest ranking, a Blue Soul Scout. However, Felix was confused. "Either the A-tier Malevolent Phantom wasn't too important to you, or they sent you as bait. Why wouldn't they send someone stronger?"According to Billy, Yelena was at least a True Blood Realm
