The Rise of a Master It Starts With Rejection novel Chapter 625

“Since the Elder’s Council sent you here, that must mean that you’re no weakling among the Oceanus Realm masters, right?” Felix asked 

Noah chuckled. “You’re sharp. I’m ranked first among all the Oceanus Realm–level masters in the Elder’s Council! Are you trying to beg for mercy, kiddo? Sure. I’ll make it quick for you.” 

To his surprise, Felix smiled. Stretching his arms casually, he said, “Ever since I reached this level, I haven’t had the chance to test just how much my body has transformed. You’ll make a fine experiment.” 

Gerald had once explained that the true terror of the Dragons Destroyer technique lay in its ability to transform the body. It would bring his body ever closer to the physical state of an ancient dragon. 

And what was an ancient dragon? The myths alone said enough. Its body was so fearsome that a mere flick of its tail could shatter mountains, and no weapon or technique could pierce its scales. 

From the moment Felix absorbed the first piece of a true dragon’s spine, he had felt the constant, comfortable changes coursing through his body. 

In the fight against Yates, he had been too consumed by rage to pay attention to the growth of his physical strength. Now, he had the perfect opportunity to explore it. 

Laughing, Noah said, “Are you not begging for mercy? Do you actually want to fight me? Are you planning to rely solely on your body? Don’t you need any forbidden techniques? Did I hear that right?” 

“You heard it right.” 

Noah laughed heartily, but before he could finish, Felix appeared in front of him in an instant and lashed out with a whip–like kick. 

Seeing this display of speed, Noah’s expression grew serious. He raised his right arm to block, but the impact was so forceful that he was thrown sideways. 

“Don’t disappoint me!” Felix said. Soon after he said that, he followed up with a crushing punch, refusing to give Noah a moment to breathe. 

“Damn it! Why is he getting faster?” 

For the first time, Noah felt a flicker of fear. Felix’s relentless physical attacks came with such speed and force that he didn’t even have a chance to unleash his techniques. 

The sheer power and velocity were unlike anything he had ever encountered. It seemed to be something that was too much for an Oceanus Realm–level martial artist to keep up with.

“How is this possible? The reports said Felix was, at best, in Aetherial Realm, but-” 

There was no time to think. He was entirely consumed with fending off the storm of punches and kicks raining down on him.

At the top of a clock tower in the garden, Nala and Alfie watched the battle through their binoculars. They seemed to feel rather conflicted. 

“The Third Elder of the Crayden family kneeling for mercy was already bizarre enough,” Alfie muttered, his voice tinged with disbelief. “But now this? What is Felix?” 

“Alfie, when you were at Oceanus Realm, could you match that speed and power?”
