Felix had to admit that whoever was behind this underground fight club clearly had some serious connections. Headquarters itself did not have a single Grandmaster, yet they managed to get one to guard this place. Usually, Grandmasters either stayed hidden or proudly maintained their independence, so convincing one to act as a mere guard was impressive.Without wasting a second, Felix casually pointed his finger again. Instantly, Eason was hurled backward through the air, slamming hard against the wall."Can I go in now?" Felix asked calmly.While struggling to stand, Eason coughed up a mouthful of blood, his eyes wide with shock and disbelief. He was also a Grandmaster, yet Felix defeated him effortlessly—without even using any real moves. Eason knew very clearly that Felix had held back; otherwise, he would have already died.Upon realizing his life depended on it, Eason swallowed nervously and rushed forward, abandoning all pride. With a flattering expression, he bowed slightly
Yakov sat anxiously back at headquarters, his mind reeling from stress. He had not imagined Felix was hiding such terrifying strength that even a Grandmaster had failed to stop him.He knew immediately that this had gone beyond his authority, so Yakov nervously called someone clearly much higher up, judging by his cautious tone."Sir, Felix has already entered the underground fight club. He's even stronger than we expected—he's been hiding his true power."There was a pause before a calm voice responded from the other side. "Interesting. Despite his strength, it seems he's smart enough not to oppose me openly. If he's letting the club continue operating for now, then his interests align with ours. Leave him alone."Even though the voice was reassuring, Yakov gathered enough courage to ask carefully, "But sir, what if Felix changes his mind later and insists on shutting the place down?"The response was calm and confident. "Then I'll simply remind him of his limits." Night fell q
Felix did not really care how much truth there was to the show anyway. Once this crisis was handled, he would shut this place down permanently, and there would not be any more deaths.Time passed quickly, and with one swift strike, the fighter sent the Malevolent Phantom's head flying to the ground. This time, it did not regrow another body, and the crowd immediately erupted in cheers, marking the end of the first match.Some spectators were fired up by the brutal fight itself, while others celebrated winning their bets and making easy money. Either way, everyone joined the party in the same excited manner.But Felix suddenly frowned, as his Domain had remained active, allowing him to see every detail of the arena clearly. He had definitely noticed someone staring at him intently for quite a while before quickly getting up and heading toward the exit. It was not unusual since many people did that after each fight, usually to use the restroom. Nonetheless, Felix sensed something wa
Felix raced across the fields at top speed, determined not to let that Black Soul Scout escape. Although the chaos at the underground fight club had kept him busy, Felix had still managed to mark the scout, making it easier to track him now.Felix's gaze sharpened as he ran, and he spotted three people approaching rapidly from different directions, clearly coming for him. He raised his hand without hesitation and unleashed a forceful blast that sent them flying backward.Since Felix was unsure if they were enemies, he deliberately reduced his power; even if these were just ordinary people, they would not suffer serious harm. As expected, the three attackers did not even fall down; they shook off the impact and immediately charged Felix again.This time, Felix stopped running and threw a powerful punch that instantly destroyed their bodies, leaving only their heads intact. And exactly as he had guessed, their bodies began regenerating almost immediately."Spirit Eye!" Felix activate
Felix paused when that thought crossed his mind because the attack had already begun. Just as he had expected, the four souls combined into a single, powerful force, reaching the Higher Spirit Realm. Strangely enough, instead of rushing toward Felix, the energy gathered around the Black Soul Scout himself."Sacrifice!" the Black Soul Scout screamed, his eyes widening and body shaking uncontrollably. He suddenly raised both hands, palms aiming directly at Felix.The four energies merged into one devastating wave and surged toward Felix. He exclaimed in shock, "Oh? Superior Soul Realm?"It was unbelievable—somehow, the combined soul energy had reached the Superior Soul Realm. Felix had to admit that the Hall of Souls really knew how to twist human potential into something terrifyingly unnatural. After all, Felix himself had only reached the Higher Spirit Realm; the Superior Soul Realm was the next stage up, something he had not even attained yet. Then, he calmly raised his right h
Felix didn't say a word and just hung up.When he returned to the underground fighting ring, not only was the old man still there, but Yakov had also shown up. The fury in Yakov's eyes was unmistakable as he glared at Felix. Yakov found his sheer audacity of hanging up his call utterly disrespectful."Felix! Think about others before you act! Do you know how hard Xena worked to climb to the rank of war goddess? Are you really going to drag her back down to nothing because of your recklessness?"Felix strode up to Yakov and sent him sprawling with a slap."You're destined to be nothing more than a lapdog in this lifetime," he sneered.The old man beside them didn't dare make a sound. The difference in strength was too vast. Yakov was an idiot for provoking Felix like this and had brought this humiliation on himself.Moments after Felix stepped inside, a series of deafening explosions erupted. The entire underground fighting ring had been reduced to rubble.Having received his p
Xena kept her head down, and her voice was barely above a whisper. "I... I want to do another Spirit Binding with you."Felix heard her with full clarity as his cultivation made that effortless. Finally, he understood why she was acting so out of character.Just as Billy had said, ordinary people couldn't resist the allure of Spirit Binding. Even Xena had become addicted.For a woman to muster the courage to say something like this, it spoke volumes about how deeply it had affected her.He sighed."That time was a necessity—an emergency. We can't do it again. It's for your own good. The more you experience it, the harder it becomes to resist. Eventually, you'll lose all self-control, and then things will get even messier. You might even do something reckless," he explained.Xena finally looked up, her eyes glistening with unshed tears."Why are you doing this to me? Yes, the first time was out of necessity, but as a woman, I still agreed to it. Do you have any idea how much cour
Xena turned around with an icy gaze. The authority of a high-ranking officer caused her expression to sharpen."Not interested," she said.If Felix had been there, his blood would've run cold. That was because the man casually inviting Xena to a late-night meal was none other than Specter.Unfazed by her rejection, Specter continued smiling."Don't you want the day to come when you can pin Felix beneath your heel and make him answer to you? Don't you want to see him look up at you one day, forced to regret every wrong he's done? Or are you truly content to let the man who broke you walk away unscathed?"Xena's eyebrow twitched. She studied him carefully, one hand subtly slipping into her purse. She was ready to alert Felix."Who are you?" she asked.Specter rubbed his chin as if genuinely considering the question."Well, it's complicated. Let's skip that part! I'm simply fascinated by Felix. I've invested considerable resources into investigating him, and you are one of the mos
