The Rise of a Master It Starts With Rejection novel Chapter 1037

"Felix, you didn't tell me that the battle was this grand!" Dickson was startled by the crowd at the scene.

He turned and saw Felix smiling bitterly. "I didn't know this either. She only said it was in Denverville Arena. I didn't expect it to be so grand."

Although Felix had participated in martial arts competitions in the capital, those who attended were famous figures. Unlike now, the arena was packed full of people.

"You're on your own now. I'll be watching you from the crowd," Dickson said.

The two of them had been communicating with each other in whispers. Dickson quickly blended into the crowd. He didn't want to be noticed by anyone.

Felix sighed—what else could he do at this point? He could only bite the bullet. When he reached the high platform, Nala came up to meet him. It was only then she realized something.

"I'm sorry, Felix. I forgot how much you hate these types of scenes."

Felix smiled and waved her off dismissively. "It's okay, I promised you anyway. I'll definitely do it."

Nala felt guilty as she introduced him to her parents. "These are my parents."

Felix bowed and shook their hands. "Nice to meet you, Mr. and Mrs. Hughman."

After a slight nod of acknowledgment, her parents glanced at each other, realizing that neither of them could sense Felix's power. Even at such a close distance, they couldn't detect his realm.

As Felix sat with them, Natalie, on the other platform, was breathing heavily.

"What's wrong?" Ezra frowned. He could see that Natalie's gaze was fixated on the young man beside Nala. However, there was no reason for Natalie to react like this.

"I didn't expect that he was really alive. Why didn't the elders tell me? Or… They didn't know?" Natalie finally explained to Ezra through telepathy when she saw he was getting anxious.

Just as the sun was about to set, Joanna stood on the stone platform. There was only one man with her, unlike the Hughmans, where many of their family stood below.

"Hahaha! As expected, he's just an ordinary nobody. Don't show him any mercy, Howie."

Beside her, Howie nodded coldly.

"Don't worry, even if I can't kill him, I'll force him to go into hiding for several years. You should be prepared to humiliate Nala. What a joke! She actually still dared to bring up the promise from so long ago."

Neither recognized Felix, and they all thought he was just an ordinary person, given Nala's situation.

Suddenly, a voice called out, "The sixth prince is here!"

The announcement caused quite a stir. After all, people from the royal family rarely showed up on other sites like this. Besides, their arrival had been purposefully announced in such a grand manner.
