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

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

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

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

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

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

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
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1537
In the past, no one dared provoke a family war so openly as it would've been a blatant slap in the Green King's face. But this time, the Goldsteins had the upper hand. After all, Justus was dead, and the Longstone family was a prime suspect. Hence, even if blood were shed, it could still be justified.Joaquin knew this well. He also understood that Gras would never give up Felix for the sake of the Longstones' reputation, so even forcing the standoff served his purpose.Just as the tension reached its peak and a battle was about to break out, Felix stepped forward on his own. "You're the head of the Goldsteins, right? I'll go with you."Joaquin narrowed his eyes. He hadn't expected Felix to boldly step forward."Dr. Zeller, please step back," Gras said.Felix glanced at Gras and said, "Thank you for everything, sir. But the truth will speak for itself. Once the investigation is done, I'm sure they'll let me return."Gras stayed silent, but Joaquin chuckled coldly. "Return? Do you

"Lord Tyrone, I—" Felix spoke but was quickly interrupted.Tyrone quickly said, "Don't rush! Once you make a choice, it's final. I hope you'll be able to think twice before you choose."Jerry motioned with his eyes, asking Felix to continue listening. "Let me tell you about Earth first. It has a level three technological development and a soul power of level two. To compare, the highest level is nine," Tyrone explained.Felix felt bitter at the explanation. No wonder they called Earth a barbarian planet. Their levels were so low. It wasn't even half."I'll recommend three planets. The first one is Morning Star. It's on level five technological development and level four soul power. There are three Royal Realm fighters and two Soul Overlord Realm fighters."If you choose it, the planet will be yours. All the citizens there will be under you. If they dared to disobey, Star Alliance would dispose of them immediately."Damn! Three Royal Realm fighters and two Soul Overlord Realm fi

That being said, Chelsea knew better. Felix now owed her a favor. Since he was from Earth, his way of thinking differed from those she knew. He wasn't someone who enjoyed killing.Otherwise, the battle wouldn't have ended up with them exchanging moves. In a way, this was already considered mercy. "Alright," Felix replied with a small nod. His mind finally settled. Although he had formed the Way of Mind and created his own techniques, he was always worried. After all, no one knew who would win the grand finals until the last moment. Now, Felix felt like he could finally breathe. Earth had hope…The aircraft holding the Orions had quickly left. The air inside was tense, and everyone felt horrible. They had no idea that this was how the grand finals would go. Felix was the champion! Everyone knew he would choose Earth as his protected planet.That way, the Orions had to find another opportunity to invade Earth, and they had no idea when that would come. The Orions' loss in this c

After countering Felix's attack, Chelsea's breathing turned rapid. She was no longer as steady as before. However, the glint in her eyes grew brighter, as if it were the first time she was forced into such a situation."How awesome…" she murmured in admiration. On the other hand, Felix was also full of admiration. Chelsea was definitely amazing. Despite being in a higher realm, she still hadn't formed the Way of Mind. Without the Way of Mind, she couldn't use her strength to its true extent.After merely two moves, Chelsea had countered both. Although she had been defensive all this time, it was still terrifying. Only those who formed the Way of Mind knew the true meaning of intent behind a casual attack.Since Chelsea didn't ask to stop the fight, Felix didn't hold back. This was his way of showing respect to a strong fighter.Felix raised his hand, seemingly throwing a casual punch. "Star-shattering Punch!"When he named this move, he had been harboring a lot of hatred. He ima

A few minutes later, the anticipated battle came. Felix and Chelsea stood across from each other, waiting for the start to be announced."Please don't hold back. I truly hope to gain your respect," Chelsea said.She knew that Felix had condensed the Way of Mind, yet she still dared to speak so boldly. It showed her confidence in her own strength."Alright, I won't hold back," Felix agreed. In terms of strength, Chelsea was definitely in the top tier. After all, she had reached the Nebular Realm and was entering the Royal Realm soon. It was pretty impressive for a fighter her age to reach the Royal Realm.Chelsea was still young, and her future would be incredibly limitless. On the other hand, Felix was still in the Nebular Realm, an entire realm below her.As soon as the start was announced, Chelsea's hair turned white as it danced in the wind. Felix went into his fighting stance and sent out a blast with one hand."Dragon Slayer Palm!"Felix had developed the technique himsel

The rule meant Hendrix had only one chance. If he won against the woman, he would take fifth place, and she would fall to sixth. Of course, he picked someone whom he was confident of beating.In fact, most of the audience knew that Hendrix was capable of being in the top five. The woman whom he picked sneered and rushed toward the island.The battle quickly finished.Hendrix's body went back to its normal size—he had won! He was now in fifth place, and from his expression, it was clear that he had no regrets about his choice. He knew his limits well.The remaining four in the winning group returned to the island as they had to draw numbers again. This time, Chelsea was the first one to draw. The card turned and showed the number one. It seemed like she had a special connection with the number.The next person who went up was Felix. The audience looked expectantly at him with widened eyes. They were all thinking the same thing—was Felix going to fight Chelsea immediately?Howeve

After missing the first blow, Hendrix didn't stop at all. He went straight for the throat, falling into close combat as if he were afraid that Felix would continue to attack him with soul techniques. However, Hendrix guessed wrong. Felix didn't dodge the second blow. Instead, he raised his right hand, extended his index finger, and pressed it against Hendrix's fist. "This is for when you allowed me to save Helen. If you continue to fight, I won't be too polite anymore," Felix said.Hendrix was stunned. He knew how strong his punch was; most people couldn't take it. However, Felix not only took it but also used only one finger, leaving Hendrix at a loss for words.Clearly, Felix was only a Nebular Realm fighter, but why was their strength gap so big? A bitter smile spread across Hendrix's face, and his throat closed up. Still, he said, "I surrender."His life was precious, and he didn't harbor any ill will toward Felix, so why would he continue to fight? After all, from what wa

As soon as Chelsea's finger touched a card, it turned and displayed the number one. Hendrix immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Although there were no longer any tricks at this point, it all depended on their strengths and luck.If anyone met Chelsea in the first round, then it would definitely affect the morale of the rest of the battles. After Chelsea, several people jumped out simultaneously, including Lachlan and Felix. When Felix touched a card, it revealed the number three.Hendrix quickly frowned and looked over. There was another person he didn't want to fight—Felix.During the two days of rest, he talked a lot with Yvian. Of course, he had learned some things, like the cooperation with Lyle and Felix. This made him feel unsettled, but he didn't expect that they would meet.Once everyone had drawn their numbers, Chelsea and another player who had drawn the same number stayed on the island. The rest temporarily left the island."Begin!"The fight between the two start

Holly was right—Felix could no longer question it. He smiled bitterly as he realized he had no choice in the matter. He thought for a while before suggesting, "What about this, if you're really part of their family, come back to Earth with me after the competition. Can you do that?"Holly agreed willingly. "Of course, I'm looking for family. That isn't an issue."Once Holly left, she contacted someone. A look of astonishment flashed in her eyes as she read Felix's information."Oh? I didn't expect this guy to be so well-known! Has Star Alliance already contacted him and offered a position as the Elder of External Affairs?"Given this information, it was evident just how powerful Holly's connections were. After all, not many people in Star Alliance knew of it.Since they were offering him the position of Elder of External Affairs, it seemed that Felix had already formed the Way of Mind. Holly didn't expect someone from such a barbaric planet to be so powerful."How interesting

Felix's expression fell immediately, and he tried to push the woman away. "Are you crazy? Get out!"However, as he closed the door, the woman stopped it from shutting. "You're a contestant in this year's Rank-Ascending Competition, right? I can sense that there's someone in Star Alliance protecting you."But there are some things you can't avoid," she said. "Either you take this chance to talk to me, or I'll ask myself. It shouldn't be difficult to find out where you're from."Felix realized the seriousness of her words as he gazed at the woman. She could sense the higher-ups secretly protecting him, but at least she couldn't figure out who he was—in other words, this woman was extremely powerful.No matter her purpose, if she really went to Earth, who could stop her? Since the Rank-Ascending Competition hadn't ended yet, and with Earth still a mess, who could stop the invasion?"Fine, come in," Felix relented.The corners of her mouth curled into a smile. "Hahaha! This is the at
