The diamond-shaped black mark on Aiden's forehead flickered with a dark glow before fading away. As this happened, his attacks changed dramatically, and his speed nearly doubled.He shouted, "Shadow Assault!" Felix began to retreat while defending against the attacks, which only fueled Aiden's confidence. He mocked, "You think you're worthy of fighting me? Die!" As Felix approached the edge of the arena, he suddenly smiled, causing Aiden's heart to skip a beat. Felix said, "Since you're finally going all out, I don't need to play around anymore."I hate to break it to you, but for someone from the Greene family who's supposed to be a prodigy, you're pretty disappointing.""Dragon Fist!" Felix roared. He had been fighting Aiden with basic moves this whole time without using any special techniques.Felix was a master of the Dragons Destroyer style, known for defeating opponents above his level. At the same level, he was practically invincible. So, there was no way Aiden could

Someone had actually come to Aiden's rescue. Felix's expression darkened as he recalled how he had planned to defeat Aiden fairly in the Martial Arts Competition from the moment he learned of his participation.Everything had gone according to plan until this unexpected intervention. Even with the Protector present, no one should have been able to interfere. No matter who Aiden's mentor was, pulling something like this off should have been impossible. Yet, it happened anyway.With Felix's sharp mind, he immediately suspected there was more to this situation than met the eye. However, no one would dare question the Protector, especially since no one else had been hurt in the process."I hereby declare Felix Zeller the champion of this Martial Arts Competition," the Protector announced.The scattered applause that followed reflected how the sudden appearance of the powerful fighter had affected everyone's mood. Felix shook his head and descended from the arena, deciding that dwelli

George and the others threw a celebration party for Felix's victory that night, and everyone was in high spirits. Even Milo, who usually avoided such gatherings, joined in the festivities.Despite drinking quite a bit, Felix cleared his mind when he got home and began studying the Lone Paragon technique. He could not resist exploring something that so many people had been seeking.When Felix opened his eyes again, he was shocked to find that dawn had already broken—time had passed even faster than during pill cultivation. "The Lone Paragon is just a fragment? How incredible must the complete version be?" he wondered aloud. Indeed, the Lone Paragon technique he received could triple his combat power without any side effects, but it was only a portion of the whole. He murmured, "Where is the rest of the Lone Paragon?"According to the text, the Lone Paragon techniques had to be learned sequentially, and Felix had only received the most basic part. Without this foundation, one woul

If not for Xena's serious expression, Felix would have thought he had misheard. He asked in disbelief, "An enemy invasion? How is that possible when our nation is so powerful?" Xena gave a bitter smile and explained, "I wish I knew the answer too, but as a warlord, my rank isn't high enough. I can only follow orders and tell you what's relevant to the mission. As a proper Dragon Knight, your duty is simply to obey." Since even Xena did not know the details, Felix knew pursuing that line of questioning would be pointless. He said, "Tell me about 'that side' then." Xena sighed with relief, grateful that Felix had not pressed further. "That place is where a large portion of our most powerful martial artists migrated from the capital years ago. They've thrived there, building families and communities, and their combat abilities far surpass what we have here."Felix had to agree with this assessment. He thought of Cynthia, his supposed fiancée's sister, and her incredible strength. T

Felix rolled his eyes at the notion of becoming the strongest in Martial City. He was not even bothered to respond to such an outlandish idea."Don't underestimate yourself, Felix," Xena insisted. "Look how young you are and already at the Boneforging Realm—that alone is remarkable. Don't you think it's possible with the Lone Paragon's power boost?"Xena felt mixed emotions, knowing Felix had hidden his true strength from her. He had already reached the Boneforging Realm, which meant he must have been incredibly powerful before, yet she had no idea."Whatever. I've accepted the mission, and I'll do my best, but I can't guarantee the outcome—no one can," Felix said.Their conversation continued until sunset before Felix left. While headquarters had shared extensive information about Martial City, Felix realized he would only truly understand it once he got there himself.Watching Felix's retreating figure, Xena opened her mouth several times but could not bring herself to speak.

Selmer immediately stepped in and said, "Ms. Emmerson, Mr. Zeller instructed us to keep him alive. Please don't act impulsively."However, Louise was more direct. He stepped in front of Shane without hesitation. He had just arrived and was not that familiar with Melissa or the others, so he only followed Felix's orders. "Alive? No way!" Melissa shot back, her voice filled with fury. "Felix knows exactly what's going on here. Don't try to fool me!"Blinded by hatred, Melissa could not think rationally. The sight of Shane brought back horrifying memories of being treated like livestock at the auction, and it made her seethe with rage.She commanded, "Ronan, kill him for me!"Ronan did not hesitate. Although he had great respect for Felix, his heart belonged to Melissa. He warned Selmer and Louise, "Get out of my way, or I might just use force on you too."Though Ronan was only at the Blood Realm major mastery stage while Selmer and Louise were True Blood Realm fighters, as a memb

Terry's only comfort was Felix's status as a Dragon Knight, believing it would keep him in check. However, Stamford could not help but laugh bitterly—how could they expect restraint after sending assassins after Felix?"Terry!" a voice suddenly boomed throughout the Skyward Guild, causing all the training disciples to freeze in curiosity."Who dares to cause trouble in my Skyward Guild?" Terry growled as he vanished on the spot, with Stamford following close behind.When they reached the front courtyard, they found Felix standing there, which immediately dampened their aggressive stance. Terry asked diplomatically, "Ah, if it isn't the honorable Dragon Knight. What brings you to our Skyward Guild?" Felix smirked at the gathered martial arts masters. "Call me Felix or Dragon Knight; I don't care—I'm here for justice."Terry's greeting was not lost on Felix. Using the title "Dragon Knight" was a calculated move to tie him to the headquarters and make things more complicated.
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 933
A terrifying aura spread from a distant building, instantly enveloping the entire Skyward Guild. Terry and his followers were overjoyed, knowing their Founding Master had been monitoring the guild's safety even during meditation."How long has it been since someone dared to cause trouble in the Skyward Guild? Such audacity!" A powerful voice echoed across the grounds, brimming with authority. Even without appearing in person, the sheer presence of this unseen force was overwhelming."Felix, you've brought this upon yourself!" Terry snarled through gritted teeth, his injuries making his anger even more palpable.The other guild members began shouting, their earlier caution forgotten. "So what if you're a Dragon Knight? You struck first, and that gives us every right to retaliate. The headquarters won't say a word against us!"Someone else growled, "Do you really think that being at the Boneforging Realm makes you invincible? Wait until you face our Founding Master!" "Mr. Miles g

Ginny was naturally present as well, and she spoke up at that moment. "Mr. Goldstein, no one wanted to see Justus die like that. But why did you bring your people to Longstone residence? Are you suggesting that his sudden death has something to do with us?"Joaquin's expression grew darker as he looked at her. He blamed Ginny for this, thinking that none of this would have happened if she had just agreed earlier. And now, they couldn't even determine the cause of death."No connection? That doctor from your household, Felix Zeller—he's the one responsible for Justus' death."Right then, someone spoke up from the crowd. "That's him! That's Felix Zeller!"Felix, who had been calmly sitting in a chair, finally saw Wagner standing among them. And in that moment, everything made sense."Wagner? You've gotten quite bold, huh?" Gras sneered.Wagner flinched at Gras's words, but remembering that he now had the Goldsteins backing him, he stiffened his spine and stood tall. "Cut the crap

In Cloud City, there were a few noble families. Nonetheless, behind the polite smiles, tensions surged. Infiltrating each other's estates with spies had practically become a tradition. While they rarely uncovered major secrets, the information they did gather always gave them a head start.So when the news broke, Gras didn't doubt it for a second. He jumped to his feet, furious. "This is outrageous! Their son dies, and somehow it's the Longstone family's fault?"Ryker looked just as puzzled, agreeing that the accusation made no sense.But Felix let out a quiet, weary sigh. "Mr. Longstone, I'm afraid this is probably my fault. I'm a doctor, and I've gotten a bit of attention lately. After they failed to determine the cause of Justus' death, and given our meeting earlier today, they likely saw an opportunity to drag your family into the mess." Gras's expression darkened, knowing that Felix wasn't wrong. After all, doctors could also be poisoners, and plenty of martial artists had fa

It was clear someone had said something to Justus. Otherwise, this situation wouldn't have escalated to this point.Felix said calmly, "It was a standard therapeutic massage technique, and I was blindfolded the entire time. Does that explanation satisfy you? Or would you rather find someone else capable of treating Ms. Longstone—I'll gladly step aside if you can."Justus sneered, his eyes filled with disdain. "Cut the crap, Felix. Don't act like I don't know exactly what's going through your head. Ginny's the heiress of the Longstone residence—Gras's precious jewel. Everyone knows that marrying her is like securing the entire household. Don't tell me that thought never crossed your mind.""It didn't," Felix said simply.Unfortunately, that answer was never going to satisfy Justus. He snarled, "Listen up, boy! I'm giving you three days to get the hell out of the Longstone residence. If you don't, you won't even get the chance to regret it. Everyone else might be afraid of Gras—but I
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1533
As Wagner watched Justus explode in rage, he felt an overwhelming sense of satisfaction. With what he'd just uncovered, there was no need to exaggerate—it was already explosive enough on its own.After all, Justus' future fiancée was touched in that kind of intimate way by a young, healthy doctor. Any man with a spine would lose it."But Justus," Wagner added with a smirk. "Didn't Felix just get publicly praised by the Green King?"Cloud City wasn't that big. Anyone with any influence had been keeping close tabs on Green King Manor—especially with the mystery man who walked out of Desolated Lands involved. So, the news of Felix being rewarded had already spread far and wide.Justus clenched his jaw. "So what? It's just a flash in the pan. If he was truly skilled, the Green King would've kept him. But as long as he hasn't climbed into the Green King's inner circle, I can crush him whenever I want."Wagner's grin widened. That was exactly the attitude he needed. If Justus had shown

The moment the Flame Monarch mentioned the Healer Sage, the Green King's expression shifted noticeably. "So the Sage really was living out there in seclusion... No wonder. Flame Monarch, does this mean you've taken a liking to Felix?"But the Flame Monarch waved his hand dismissively. "There's no need for that."That response made the Green King secretly rejoice. If the Flame Monarch didn't intend to recruit Felix, then he understood why—and that was perfect. It meant the opportunity to take Felix under his own wing was wide open.The night passed quietly. Felix stood beside Christopher's bedside, noticing the man's breathing had grown steady and stable.At this point, the herb had run its course and was no longer effective. But what was left inside Christopher's soul—a strange, lingering force—was exactly what Felix had hoped for.Christopher was alive but completely unconscious. The remaining energy had no regenerative properties, which meant he'd likely never wake again. For Fe

Felix wasn't the least bit surprised by the Flame Monarch's reaction, but he still feigned confusion. "Flame Monarch, I'm sorry... but I don't understand. What do you mean by soul-related injuries?"Just from that single line, Felix confirmed what he suspected—Aquamarinus had no concept of soul-based matters. Whether it was training methods or anything else, this realm hadn't yet touched that domain.The Flame Monarch stared at him, pressure radiating from his body. Felix immediately felt his limbs start to tremble under the invisible weight."You don't know? Then how could you claim to treat that man's condition?" Felix calmly pointed toward the herbs laid out on the table. "The force inside him is definitely strange. It triggered a memory... I once sensed something very similar, and it came from within that herb. It was purely instinct—when something feels familiar, there's a chance it might work."The Flame Monarch shifted his gaze to the herb, then said flatly, "Start from th

Felix gave him a direct and honest answer. "As long as I have enough herbs. I can treat him. I won't promise a full recovery, but one thing I can guarantee you is that this man won't die."For now, that was the best possible answer anyone could offer.The Flame Monarch replied, "Good. Begin. As long as you can keep him alive, you'll be handsomely rewarded."It seemed the Flame Monarch already knew something and never truly expected anyone to completely cure Christopher. Preserving his life alone would already be a feat."Flame Monarch, please reconsider!" one of the elderly doctors suddenly cut in, seething with resentment. "This boy is barely grown—how could he possibly possess such remarkable skill in medicine?"The Flame Monarch turned and gave him a cold, mocking glance. "If he can't do it, then can you?"The old man went silent. Perhaps fearing the loss of favor or acting out of sheer pride, he hesitated. Eventually, he found the courage to speak again."I admit I can't, bu
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1529
The Green King's expression changed instantly, and he turned to Felix in a hurry. "Dr. Zeller, please come with me to greet him.""Of course," Felix replied.For anyone in Aquamarinus, getting the chance to see the Flame Monarch up close was like a once-in-a-lifetime dream, and people would probably die happy just for that. Naturally, Felix put on a show of reverence as well, even if he didn't feel it deep down.As they reached the front gate, Felix saw several figures striding toward them with heavy steps. At the front of the group was a towering man, nearly nine feet tall. Even someone as built as Dave looked like a delicate bystander next to him.What stood out the most was his bright crimson hair, which flared upward like flames, making it look like his head was on fire. His facial features were fairly average, but the power behind his gaze radiated pure, undeniable authority.So, this was the Flame Monarch?Felix studied him closely. He suspected the man had cultivated some

According to the rules set by the Flame Monarch, the position of Minor Kings rotated every five years. Those who made outstanding contributions could keep their titles, but anyone who fell short would have to fight for their place all over again.The Green King knew he wasn't particularly strong—he was painfully aware of that. And with the next year marking the fifth year, the pressure was mounting fast. So when Christopher appeared, it felt like fate. If he could heal this man before the Flame Monarch arrived with his elite doctors, the credit would be immense, and his reappointment would be virtually guaranteed. Anyone who had never held a Minor King title wouldn't understand just how many perks came with it. If they did, no one would give it up willingly."I can treat him," Felix said calmly. "But I can't promise a full recovery."The Green King smiled. "Do your best. Even if you can only keep him alive, that alone is worth it."Two doctors before had said that Christopher's b
