Reincarnation: The Soul of Dashul

"Just now it was the thunderbolt, and now it's the sea of fire? What kind of magic is this?"

"I thought the beast tide was going to be a major disaster, but I didn't expect the light-winged bats to be struck by lightning and then burned by fire... How pitiful!"

"Could it be that the boy... has found another heaven and earth power in the ancient tree secret realm?"

"That kid from the Everest School of Magic, could he be a master of formations? He's barely nineteen... How is that possible?"

"All magic arrays are ineffective. Without relying on magic arrays, I can actually follow the trend of heaven and earth to attract magic energy..."

"Only a master of magic circles can do that... His magic level must be at least that of a Nine-Origin Magician, right?"

"This kid... is too weird, it doesn't make sense at all!"

"This is such a monster, it's totally unfair, we want to appeal..."

"What are you complaining about? Are you blaming others for being too strong? Or are you blaming yourself for being too weak? Newbies shouldn't come play..."

……

In the secret realm of the ancient tree, although Ledo kept a low profile, his performance still caused quite a stir. Everyone was shocked by the terrifying magic power he caused, but almost everyone thought he was a gifted person with magical powers like the Magic Circle Dark Horse.

Few people define Ledo as a genius with extraordinary combat strength. After all, no matter how powerful he is, his true magical realm is only that of a high-level third-level magician. The shackles of the higher realm are still there. It is a gap that is difficult for ordinary people to cross.

Before everyone could continue the discussion, a firecracker rang out in the sky above the Ancient Tree Secret Realm. The sound was crisp and loud, and the colorful salute attracted everyone's attention. It was the signal for the end of the first round of the cat-and-mouse game.

Then, a huge magical light screen appeared in the sky, showing the points of the six participating teams after the first round of cat-and-mouse game.

"Ranked first is the Golden Tree Guard Team... They have six points! They actually caught three rats!" Meritu's eyes had almost recovered, but they were red now, and he was obviously angry.

"Kogori Academy of Magic and Annapurna Academy of Magic each have four points, tied for second place... Damn it!" Lux was also very angry. They were tricked by their opponents, wasted too much time, and almost lost two points.

"We only have three points...not in the top three, that's bad!" Meritu was a little discouraged.

"Fifth place is the Doragili Magic Academy, with only two points, and the last place has zero points, which is the Luozi Magic Academy... It seems that the Rat Team has completely failed." Ledo looked up at the sky, his tone without much emotion.

"In the next round, all three of us must get points, otherwise we may be eliminated directly at match point and won't even have the chance to compete in the third round..." Meritu began to get anxious, constantly deducing the situation of the second round in his mind.

"In the second round, we are the Rat Team. As long as we find the flags and the scoring area... we should be fine. The biggest threat is still the Golden Tree Guard Team, but... they are also the Rat Team." Lux was thinking about the possible opponents he might encounter.

"The people from Annapurna School of Magic... their performance has been among the best since the first competition, so we must be on our guard!"

Ledo had always felt that the magician bound by the Golden-Winged Bat King had a very strange aura. Now that he saw that the Annapurna Academy of Magic was ranked second in points, he realized that the magician was not that simple.

"Annapurna Academy of Magic... I'm so angry. It's them. If it weren't for..." Meritu was furious when he mentioned Annapurna Academy of Magic, and hurriedly told Ledo about his previous experience.

"Hmm? Now that you mention it... that guy named 'Ricky' is indeed not simple. Never mind, the second round will be up to me!"

In the first round, Ledo fought against the Golden Tree Guardians and the group of Light-Winged Bats, and fought against the Golden-Winged Bat King alone, which indeed wasted too much time. However, he gained enlightenment during the battle and created his own Echo Technique, which enabled him to show his prowess in the second round.

"Here it comes... It's the order energy of the ancient tree again... Ah! So comfortable!" Lux felt the familiar energy wave coming from deep in the earth, replenishing his body with magic energy, and his whole body became warm.

"Huh? Alright? The internal and external injuries recovered instantly!" Meritu was also very surprised. In the first round of the game, his eyes and ears were severely injured. After recuperation just now, there was still a little pain, but now they recovered instantly.

"Even the damaged parts of the battlefield have all been restored automatically, just like the map of mountains and seas..." Ledo looked at the green pine forest that had just been burned not far away. It was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye and restored to its original appearance.

Afterwards, the uniforms of Ledo and the other two turned brown. In the second round of the cat-and-mouse game, they took over the mouse team and were about to start searching for the flags while avoiding the cat team's hunt.

"That's not right... If it's a fair rotation, there should be four rounds of cat-and-mouse game. Why are there only three?" Meritu was confused about this rule from the beginning. Now that the roles are really rotated and reset, he has even more questions.

"The last round is the deciding game, so there might be different rules." Ledo had already noticed this.

"It doesn't matter, let's go quickly and find the flags to get the points first!" Lux couldn't wait. They lost the first round and he didn't want to lose points again in this round.

"Don't leave yet. The terrain here is very strange. It seems to naturally block out energy. My magical senses couldn't find you just now. It must be because of the terrain here."

Ledo observed for a while and found that they were in a very ingenious natural terrain. The direction of the earth veins was very similar to the terrain of the "Hidden Immortal Cave" recorded in ancient books.

This place is simply a place created for cat-and-mouse games. Once someone enters, ordinary elemental sensing will not be able to find them here, making it very suitable for hiding.

"Not leaving? Then how are we going to find the flag?" Meritu saw that Ledo had other plans, but the defeat in the first round made them a little hesitant and they didn't dare to act rashly.

"Don't worry... I can quickly search a large area of ancient tree secrets now! It's easy to find the branch flags. They can't catch up with my speed. Let me find the target first..." Ledo suddenly said this, which gave the two nervous people a lot of comfort.

"If you act alone, quickly find the three flags and the scoring area, and then come back to pick us up, it should be easy..." Meritu proposed an idea based on Ledo's speed characteristics.

"Forget it. Last round, we suffered because we were scattered. This round, as long as we stay together, even if we encounter some cat teams, they may not be able to break our scoring symbols."

Meritu's strategy made sense, but Ledo felt that only by working together and cooperating with each other could they be more secure. As a cat team, they failed when searching for targets separately. Now, as a mouse team, they would most likely be defeated one by one.

Seeing that Meritu and Lux both nodded, Ledo immediately released the Five Elements spiritual consciousness and magical perception, and at the same time used the Echo Technique with all his strength, wanting to understand all the dynamics in this area.

Ledo's dual perception was upgraded to triple perception, and spread out at an unprecedented speed, reaching the peak of his current realm. From energy aura to physical movements, nothing could escape Ledo's perception.

However, just as Ledo began to investigate, his brows furrowed. Two participating teams were actually rushing towards them at the same time, less than five kilometers away. "It's them! What a narrow road for enemies..."
