The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 340
"So the delivery fee alone starts at a million dollars?" Felix thought to himself, amazed at the extravagant cost. It seemed incredibly expensive, but then he realized there were plenty of ultra-wealthy people who valued this level of service. For them, it was not about the cost—it was about the prestige."Which one of us would even qualify to receive something from Royal Elite?" Robert asked after recovering from his shock. No one answered, which made the situation even more intriguing.Anyone who used Royal Elite Courier Service had to be extremely wealthy and prestigious, and the recipients were usually just as notable. Moreover, Royal Elite was known for its in-person signatures and perfect delivery record—even a single mistake would be scandalous and damage its reputation. Just then, another person in a purple suit, though notably darker than the others, entered carrying an exquisite square box with both hands. Everyone watched as he approached Felix and stopped. "Mr. Zel

Vanessa's eyes narrowed as she shot Robert an icy glare. "Robert, didn't I specifically warn you about looking down on Jack and his friend? What's your problem?"Given their years of friendship, Robert was not particularly bothered by Vanessa's confrontation. However, Felix's actions had thoroughly infuriated him.Robert replied, "I'm just giving them a reality check. Nessa, you know how I am. But Felix, calling me out like this in front of everyone, is crossing a line. Do you think getting some fancy delivery service makes you better than me? The waters in Canraville run deeper than you can imagine!" Instead of apologizing, Robert became even more hostile. Vanessa was furious, but before she could speak, Felix held up his hand to stop her."That's not the point here; the main issue is that a real man keeps his word about making an apology," Felix stated calmly.He was already acting considerate for Vanessa's sake, but if Robert insisted on being disrespectful, he had other ways

"Felix! Are you out of your mind? You're seriously not planning to go?" Vanessa's voice was filled with disbelief."Nope," he replied simply. His brief response sent chills down everyone's spine, as only someone completely clueless would say something like that."You have to go. Those VIP seats at Dreamscape's concert are incredibly rare," Vanessa insisted with absolute seriousness. "I can personally guarantee that if you don't show up, every Dreamscape fan in Dragonia will make your life a living hell."Felix looked up at Vanessa, and upon seeing her dead serious expression, he could only nod in resignation. "Fine, I'll go."At that moment, Robert approached them with an awkward smile plastered on his face. "Um, Mr. Zeller, I was wrong earlier. I'm really sorry. I hope you'll forgive me, for Nessa's sake at least."The contents of that box completely humbled Robert. He knew the consequences would be severe if he did not apologize now.When Felix remained silent, Robert quickly a

Wendy was taken aback and exclaimed, "Grave relocation?" The topic seemed completely disconnected from their previous conversation, and she could not help saying, "Mr. Zeller, I… I don't quite understand."Felix knew he needed to explain, though he kept it brief. "I need Mr. Laird to relocate his family grave. It might seem like an unreasonable request, but it has to be done. Could you ask your father if he can help make this happen?"Given everything Felix had done for her family, Wendy could not refuse to try at least. "Of course, let me make a quick call."This unusual request stemmed from Felix detecting one of the ancient dragon's spine fragments in the area. Since his meridians had evolved and the dragon scale had fully bonded with him, he could sense all nine spine fragments of the ancient dragon within a certain range.According to Gerald, most fragments were marked on the map he provided. However, there was always the possibility that some had been discovered by chance o

Larry took a seat and gestured to the manager, instructing firmly, "No one enters without my permission."Once the door closed, Felix said, "I assume you've figured things out, Mr. Laird?"Larry nodded. "I'd be a fool not to. When I see you dining with Wendy right after Vincent's call, it's not hard to connect the dots." His gesture with the expensive drinks was clearly an attempt to smooth things over after rejecting Vincent's request. It was obvious that Larry was a real people-pleaser. Felix said, "Alright. Let's just get straight to the point. I need you to relocate that grave. I only need access to the back garden for a week, and after that, you can do whatever you want with it."Larry seemed troubled. "Mr. Zeller, seeing how Wendy respects you, I know you're no ordinary person. But that grave means a lot to me, and there's a precious family heirloom buried beneath it. I simply can't agree to this."Larry assumed Felix had somehow learned about the family heirloom and wa

Felix's expression shifted slightly when Xena's name was mentioned. Of all the possibilities he considered, Xena was not among them.Mistaking Felix's reaction for hesitation, Larry decided to lay all his cards on the table. "I'm not just talking about a quick meal, Mr. Zeller. I want to give her a grand reception—if you understand what I mean."Larry's motivation made sense. He was devoted to his restaurant business, and what better way to gain instant recognition than hosting a celebrity of Xena's caliber? With proper publicity, success would be inevitable."Let me guess—you also want to take photos with her and display them in your restaurant?" Felix asked wryly.Larry shifted uncomfortably. "Come now, Mr. Zeller, I know my boundaries. Lady Summers isn't some regular celebrity, so photos are obviously out of the question."The mention of Xena made Felix contemplate the situation carefully. He considered potential alternatives but realized even someone like Vivian, the current

Since Felix had been dragged into the Phantom Poison incident because of her, Xena felt somewhat guilty. Thus, she agreed to the talk. "Alright."As they walked out, Jaden seethed with frustration. If not for his promise to Zara, he would have confronted Felix already."Felix, I'm going to win Xena over before she becomes Warlady," he muttered. "If you're smart, you'll back off now. Zara can't protect you forever."While walking through the neighborhood, Felix decided to skip the small talk. "Have you heard of Yardley Dining?""No, I haven't." Xena shook her head.However, her heart unexpectedly raced, and she could not explain why. Was Felix really planning to pursue her? "I need a favor from Mr. Larry Laird of Yardley Dining," Felix explained. "His condition is having you dine at his restaurant—a very formal, special dinner."Hearing that he was asking for a favor, Xena's excitement instantly deflated. "Absolutely not! I'm about to become a Warlady. Do you expect me to be a p
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 347
Jaden's sudden proposal caught Xena completely off guard. In all honesty, the man kneeling before her checked all the boxes of her ideal partner—handsome, kind, accomplished, and backed by the prestigious Crimson Sage Sect. Sadly, the timing was not right. Xena explained gently, "Jaden, you know my grandpa asked me to date Felix for a month. There's still about two weeks left. I hope you understand."Jaden stood up, looking somewhat embarrassed. "I'm sorry. I completely forgot about that."The euphoria from his breakthrough had made him impulsive, momentarily forgetting about Felix, whom he considered insignificant. Nonetheless, he noticed the look in Xena's eyes and felt he still had a chance, especially considering Xena's promotion to Warlady would happen much later. Shortly after Jaden left, the doorbell rang. Xena was a little annoyed, wondering how everyone seemed to know her whereabouts so easily. Then again, it could be Felix.But as soon as she saw who it was, she went

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

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
