The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter 951 Time was running out-less than an hour remained before the 12-hour mark, and Felix was still grappling with his decision. He muttered, "Alas, this is such a headache."

He knew that if he did not complete the task within the next hour, his talent would forever be categorized as Supreme grade, and Heaven grade would be out of reach. Talent was a fixed trait, unchangeable by time or experience, so once determined, there would be no second chances.

"The gap between Heaven grade and Supreme grade is massive. Then again, becoming Heaven grade also means drawing a lot more attention," Felix thought.

For ten hours, he had agonized over this, torn between the external threat of the Maximus family and the Grand Elder and the internal challenge of Harmony Clinic's resource restrictions. It was no wonder the choice felt impossible.
