The Rise of a Master It Starts With Rejection novel Chapter 327

Chapter 327 

To be honest, Felix had always seen the nine senior apprentices as potential partners, but he was also a man of principles. Even now, with temptation at its peak, he held firm to his 

values. 

Karina’s purple dress had fallen, and she stood there only in her undergarments. She was the definition of perfection, with curves in all the right places and a face that could mesmerize any man who laid eyes on it. 

Nonetheless, Felix held himself back, resisting the urge to pull her onto the bed. He stuttered, “Karina, I–I haven’t resolved my engagement situation yet.” 

Karina’s slight blush only made her more alluring. “But I can’t just use words when I ask someone for help. I have nothing else to offer, so I can only offer myself. Don’t worry, we don’t have to tell anyone.” 

Could he really? If it were that simple, he would have made a move on Averill long ago. He replied, “That’s not necessary, Karina. I’d move heaven and earth to help you anyway!” 

Karina slipped her dress back on with swift, decisive movements as soon as the words left his mouth. Felix caught the playful glint in her eyes and realized he had been played. Truly, none of the nine senior apprentices were as innocent as they looked. 

“Karina, that was so mean!” Felix grumbled. 

She flashed him a radiant smile that seemed to light up the room. “Oh? And if I were to take it off again, would you really dare act on it?” 

Felix laughed helplessly–they both knew he would not dare; he was all talk. 

Then, Karina explained, “Mr. Hoffman finally agreed to do a reading for me. Surprisingly, it turns out my brother has a living descendant. I’m too focused on training to be aware of worldly affairs, let alone managing relationships. I was hoping you could check on them and offer some support.” 

The matter seemed simple enough for Felix, but something still puzzled him. “Of course, I’ll handle it perfectly for you! But wait–Mr. Hoffman is so stingy, and readings drain his energy significantly. How did you convince him?” 

Karina opened the bedroom door and dropped a bombshell that left Felix dumbfounded. She said, “I prepaid a million–dollar membership at his favorite spa.” 

Setting aside the disturbing thoughts about Gerald, Felix began to examine his own situation. Years ago, when Gerald took him as an apprentice, he implanted a dragon scale in Felix’s body. 

He could have progressed faster, but the scale had absorbed most of his energy, keeping him stuck at the Martial Saint level.

Now that his meridians were finally open, the dragon scale had been fully merged, allowing him to practice his true technique, the Dragons Destroyer. According to Gerald, he would be nearly unbeatable once he collected all nine dragon vertebrae left in this world. 

Just as Felix was about to get some more rest, his phone rang–it was Jack. He answered, ” Jack, what’s the matter?” 

He checked the time; it was past 10:00 am, and he had been out all night.
