The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 148
"Felix! Don't celebrate too soon. Did you really think being a vice president at Stellar Group was my only backing? Hah, what a joke! "I admit that your connection to Yvonne as president was unexpected, but so what? You have no idea who my uncle is!" Felix asked with a curious face, "Oh? Then, tell me. Who's your uncle?" "Have you heard of Dragon Alliance?" Hearing those three words, Felix was able to connect all the pieces. No wonder Kane had asked Joshua for help. His uncle was also part of the Dragon Alliance. Based on that trust, Kane's mistake was understandable. "Never heard of it." This response left Joshua feeling dissatisfied. He sneered and said, "Of course not! Why would I discuss Dragon Alliance with trash like you? "It's a terrifying existence you could never imagine in your lifetime. And my uncle is a member. Forget about you—even that bitch Yvonne will have to apologize to me soon!"The door opened, and a middle-aged man entered. Joshua immediately went

What? Daniel looked at Kane in disbelief, then back at Felix. Could this man before him actually be the mysterious Dragon Lord of Dragon Alliance? Kane was furious. After receiving Felix's call, he rushed to the gala right away. He would not dare discuss such matters over the phone. He could only come and apologize to Felix in person. After finishing his sentence, Kane immediately knelt before Felix. "My lord! I have failed in my duties. Please punish me as you see fit." Suddenly, loud laughter rang out. "Lord Kane, your acting is truly impressive." Even Daniel was startled. Why was Joshua causing trouble at such a critical moment? "Uncle Daniel, you really believed that? I've checked. Felix is Lord Kane's relative and is even younger than Lord Kane. Now that you're here, Lord Kane is putting on this act to protect Felix. I must say that it's very convincing." Daniel frowned, barely containing his anger. "Kane, is he your relative? Did you think I'm an idiot and could be

"This matter ends here." Felix left after saying that. Only then did Daniel let out a long breath and slump to the ground. The reason why he killed Joshua without hesitation was simply to save himself. Otherwise, his own chances of death were also high as he faced the Dragon Lord. After all, Joshua was not his son. "Kane, you nearly got me killed this time." Daniel shot a resentful glance at Kane. He could not help but feel angry. Kane gave a bitter smile in response. "Daniel, what could I do? How could I dare reveal the Dragon Lord's identity without his permission? The key issue is that you spoiled Joshua too much. He didn't even respect me as the deputy chief of Oasis Clinic! "The Dragon Lord was truly generous. When I informed him about Joshua, he said Joshua was free to pursue her, despite his prenuptial agreement with Xena. But Joshua shouldn't have interfered with the Velocis Ventures matter." Daniel was left speechless. Indeed, if he had known Felix's true identity,

"What?" Belle was shocked. Even Xena turned to look, but Belle was too focused to care now. "Are you sure?" she demanded. "I'm certain! A middle-aged man carried Joshua out the back door over his shoulder. I'm sure he was already lifeless. Judging by how his head was hanging, his neck was likely snapped." The Phoenix Legion had no shortage of experts. The person Belle sent was also a martial artist who was fully capable of sensing a normal person's breathing. There was no chance of a mistake. "Who was in the room at the time?" "Felix, Joshua, that middle-aged man, and Lord Kane, who was the last to enter." Taking a deep breath, Belle hung up and immediately reported everything to Xena. "Milady, I suspect that the middle-aged man is Joshua's uncle. But how did Joshua die?" Xena furrowed her brows. "Is it possible Lord Kane killed him? Though that seems too brazen, unlike his style."Belle strongly agreed with that point, as she knew a secret. "Milady, I can guarantee it was

Sasha quickly chimed in, "Exactly, Dad! You're really too kind." She thought to herself gleefully, "Felix is such an idiot. He helped our family so much, but now he's going to be utterly destroyed by Dora. Just thinking about it makes me so happy!" Though he said nothing more, Warren had his own plans. He could not simply accept this without giving anything in return.As a new day dawned, Kane appeared at Felix's home around noon. "Mr. Zeller, we have news about the Shimmeroot." Oh? Felix smiled, as Shimmeroot was one of the herbs needed to treat Curtis. "Did you get it, or..." Kane had woken up ecstatic to this news from his subordinates. He finally had a chance to make up for his mistake."Not yet. It's in a village on the outskirts of Avesburgh. But the old man is very stubborn. He says it's a family heirloom and won't sell at any price. My men even brought ten million dollars in cash, but the old man wouldn't budge." Another tough case? This was somewhat similar to the

Felix had not expected Ted and Perry to be meeting with Yvonne, but that was no longer important now.Ted's face darkened at Felix's sudden appearance. Cooperation with Stellar Group was a big deal. While their connections ensured it would not fall through, upsetting the president would certainly be bad. Besides, Ted had plans to pursue Yvonne, so Felix's intrusion would be humiliating."Felix! Don't you dare play the victim! Come outside with me." Ted walked over hastily. Perry put on a smile and said, "Ms. Cooper, please pay this no mind. It's just a minor conflict between young people." Yvonne nodded, curious about how Felix kept antagonizing these important figures. Did he really have such capability? She had intervened with Joshua, but what about the Glover family? Anyone who could contact their chairman was certainly of no simple character.Ted was relieved when Felix followed him out. Arguing in the private room would have damaged his image and embarrassed Perry. "Are

"Hurry! Drive faster!" Perry urged. Though he had martial artists protecting him, they were not nearly as good as Xena. Going to her was definitely the safest option.…Meanwhile, Xena was already waiting outside the Phoenix Legion headquarters, having received word of their arrival. "Xena," Ted greeted with a forced smile as he got out of the car. He could barely hide his panic. "Xena, I—" But before he could finish, he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed. "Son!" Perry quickly caught him. Xena instantly appeared by their side. After extending her right arm, her eyes turned ice-cold. "Ted... is dead." What? Perry could barely breathe and nearly fainted. They had come as fast as possible, yet tragedy still struck. Belle watched in shock. Did Ted die from a sudden illness or something else? My God! As a cousin of Lady Summers, Ted had died right in front of her. What a catastrophe!Regaining his senses, Perry roared to the sky, "Felix! I'll have your life

At Tabiner Bay, Felix sat in the courtyard of his villa as if he were waiting for someone. His phone rang. It was Kane. "Mr. Zeller, Daniel just called. He said Belle came to ask him about last night's incident in the gala room. He told her Joshua died of a sudden heart attack and didn't reveal your identity." Felix knew someone was watching outside—someone Belle likely sent. Joshua's death could not be kept secret forever, as it would eventually reach Xena. This was why Felix had not immediately driven Daniel out of Avesburgh.Others' words might be useless, but Daniel was the chief of Dragon Alliance's Disciplinary Hall. His status spoke for itself. Belle would at most ask a few questions and would not dare verify personally. So, Joshua's matter was easily settled. "Tell Daniel to call Belle back and say this..." "Understood, Mr. Zeller." Felix was not one to always hide things. Sometimes, what had to be done should be done—just like Ted's death now. Xena's side surely h

Seekstorm's large eyes were bright blue, filled with a hint of timidity and curiosity.Felix didn't dare make any sudden moves. He was afraid of scaring the little beast but also curious about what it was planning to do.After a few minutes of tense silence, Seekstorm slowly began to approach Felix, coming right up to him. It wasn't that friendly with him last time. Seeing its eyes sparkle with a hint of affection, Felix was almost in disbelief. He grabbed the steak and held it out.The little creature almost drooled, but after staring for a few seconds, it forced itself to look back at him instead."Hm? Why are you staring at me instead of eating your favorite steak?"Felix knew it wasn't because of his increased charisma upon reaching the Grandmaster Realm level. It was more likely that something he carried was attracting Seekstorm.After turning down several things with little interest, Seekstorm's eyes lit up when it saw the red bone that appeared during Aiden's demise. It

Who would have thought that Felix would just stand in midair like that, looking down at everyone around him? Wasn't that the sign of a Grandmaster Realm martial artist?It was universally accepted that martial artists of Grandmaster Realm couldn't fly, but they could stand in midair. So far, no technique or secret method has been discovered that could achieve such a feat. While the strongest martial artists could momentarily leverage the air to support themselves, only a martial artist of Grandmaster Realm could stand in midair like that.At that moment, Felix basked in the awe and respect of the people of Ghosttown. His heart swelled with satisfaction.Just as he'd predicted, reaching the peak of Transcendent Realm and absorbing the last piece of the Dragonspine had pushed him straight to the pinnacle of martial prowess—Grandmaster Realm level.No wonder he could absorb the Dragonspine so quickly this time. It only took a couple of days, and even though he was struck by lightnin
Chapter 1098
After confirming the results, with three days left until the full moon, Felix decided to absorb the last piece of the Dragonspine. Having successfully forged his Ethereal Constitution, there was no one in Martial City who could rival him at his current level. Nonetheless, he didn't want to risk any unexpected surprises.By noon on the third day, the sun was blazing down mercilessly, scorching the earth.A middle-aged man and woman quietly approached a particular house."I… I still feel uneasy about this. That's the Demoness' house, after all," the woman said hesitantly.The man scolded her, "What are you afraid of? The Demoness has been gone for nearly two years. She's long since left. Who knows? We might find some valuable treasures or secret techniques inside. Just because she didn't care for them doesn't mean they're useless to us."The thought of potential riches emboldened them. Although the woman hesitated, she eventually steeled herself and continued forward.Just as the

Felix's mind went completely blank at that moment. He was so shocked that he didn't even notice the emerald slip turning into a streak of light and flying away.His new discovery was simply too incredible. The emerald slip contained none other than the next part of the Lone Paragon. Back when he first learned it, he had wondered why the Lone Paragon technique was limited to a threefold power boost. Finally, his suspicions had been confirmed.When he finally snapped out of his daze, he couldn't help but sigh. "Danger and opportunity truly go hand in hand."With his current strength, he mastered this new part of Lone Paragon in an instant, increasing the power boost from threefold to fourfold."Could there be even more beyond this? If I master the entire technique, just how terrifying will my combat power become?"As he took a moment to center himself, an even greater wave of excitement washed over him.Not only did this new section of Lone Paragon increase his power further, but

Felix chuckled. He had to admit that Kevin was an incredibly difficult opponent. He was sure the man had only sensed something unusual, without fully understanding what had changed. Despite that uncertainty, he chose to flee without hesitation."Do you really think you can escape?" Felix asked.Lumen reappeared in an instant, materializing right in front of Kevin as if teleporting. This was true speed at its peak."Humph! I thought you would do something else. This thing failed to break through my defenses previously. Did I misjudge?" Kevin thought.Once again, the red glow flared up, forming a barrier to block Lumen. But this time, things were different.With a crack, something shattered. Lumen had pierced straight through Kevin's body. At first glance, there seemed to be no visible damage. Felix, who had just caught up with Lumen, knew the truth. Kevin was already dead. His soul had been obliterated in an instant.There wasn't even a flicker of emotion in his eyes. Everything

Felix had no other choice. Whether he would succumb to darkness or not was a problem for later. Since his Ethereal Constitution was still incomplete, he could only unleash Lumen in an attempt to kill Kevin.His strength was beyond anything Felix had anticipated.Just when he thought it was about to be over, Kevin suddenly stood still. A crimson glow flickered around him, then condensed into a shield the size of a plate. It perfectly intercepted Lumen just inches from his forehead."What?" Felix was utterly shocked. This was the first time anyone had ever blocked Lumen. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have thought it was a dream.Kevin sneered. "Aren't you the miracle doctor's mentee? Do you really think that once a martial artist reaches a certain level, they wouldn't have some understanding of the soul? If I wasn't fully prepared, do you think I would have revealed myself to kill you?"Kevin had a soul-defense weapon similar to the Infinite Shield. Felix found i

What Kevin said next left Felix utterly shocked."Forget Eloise. If the miracle doctor were to release the seals on all nine of your fellow apprentices, I wouldn't stand a chance against a single one of them."Seals on all nine of his fellow apprentices? What did that mean?No matter how much Felix tried to goad Kevin for more information, he wouldn't say another word. He had no choice but to dismiss it as nonsense.After another ten minutes, Kevin suddenly unleashed a devastating strike, which sent Felix flying backward. However, by doing so, Kevin left himself exposed. For the first time, Felix landed a clean hit on him."Felix, now you'll witness the moment I've been waiting for all these years. Without this full-power battle between us, I never would've reached this point!"With that, Kevin pulled out an object. As his upper garments shredded apart, he pressed it against his chest.Felix grew anxious as he had seen that object before. It was the same bone that had flown away
Chapter 1093
The moment a disheveled old man appeared, Felix knew that it was no coincidence. The old man had come looking for him on purpose. However, the real question was why he dared to do that."I believe this is our first meeting, right, Kevin?"Kevin grinned. "Yes."Felix rolled his neck. After all, he anticipated this fight a lot. During his fight against Cordelia, he felt the need to hold back. However, he didn't have to do that this time. After all, Kevin was one of the best fighters. There was no doubt about that."Did you come to avenge your mentee Aiden?" Felix asked.To his surprise, Kevin shook his head. "No. On the contrary, I should be thanking you for killing Aiden. I believe in fate, and I never try to manipulate it. "When the three Celestial Royals joined forces against you at the foot of Trirock Mountain, I was certain you would die. However, fate took a turn."Felix frowned, struggling to make sense of why he would want to thank him."So many things I thought were des

"What is this thing?" Westley asked."This thing created all the mist in Misty Ridge," Felix replied.He didn't bother explaining the origins of the Infinite Shield in detail. Instead, he simply raised his right hand and touched it.In an instant, the Infinite Shield transformed into a streak of green light and disappeared into his body.As he felt the shield merge with his soul, a lingering sense of unease crept over him as he recalled Ophelia's warning.When dealing with the Three Forbidden Lands, the order of entry was crucial. If done incorrectly, the consequences would be disastrous.He had entered Echo Cavern first by pure luck. Back then, he had been ambushed by Dean and the Grand Elder. Both of them had mastered Transcendent Realm. Hence, Felix hadn't had the luxury of choice. Just surviving had been enough for him.It was only thanks to Ophelia's guidance that he had avoided stepping into Misty Ridge back then. Otherwise, who knew what would have happened?Even though
