Reincarnation: The Soul of Dashul

"Damn it! If word gets out about what happened today, won't we, the Golden Tree Guards, become a laughingstock?"

"This is so frustrating! When have we ever been this pathetic?"

"I hope the vice-captain can execute this man on the spot, thus upholding the glorious name of our Golden Tree!"

"Don't worry, the Spanish prince of the Imperial Family has arrived, and even his guards are Grand Mages..."

"Wow... there are now more than twenty Dharma Kings here!"

"It seems that the light and shadow will pierce the sky... This is the first time I've ever seen so many Dharma Kings appear together!"

"That one next to him is... Esmote N. Ansber! He's a high-ranking Archmage from the Ansber family!"

"Great! The Dharma King of the Ansber family has arrived. He will not let that guy named Leido go. He is doomed!"

"Yes... no matter how powerful he is, he can only become a prisoner in front of an imperial prince!"

……

On the Plaza of Honor, the many Golden Tree Guards whispered among themselves. As the elite force of the Imperial Guard, they had suffered repeated setbacks and lost face today. No one dared to make any rash moves for fear of further blows.

The Golden Tree Guard received orders and mobilized six squads to capture the Light and Shadow Society thieves who had invaded the Tree of Life. Also present were ten powerful magic kings arranged by the Ministry of Magic.

However, the red-robed elder who appeared earlier released such a powerful aura that even many Dharma Kings could not resist. He easily broke through the encirclement with the student named Riki and fled far away. Even the Holy Archmage who arrived later was helpless.

It's one thing that the enemy is too monstrous, but to have their squad leader knocked out and killed in one move by a mere first-level mage who had just advanced to that level is another.

The members of the Golden Tree Guard are all top-notch mages. Although some of them were selected through family connections, large families have abundant resources, so it is not difficult for them to cultivate a powerful mage.

Moreover, to become the captain of a squad, one must be one of the strongest in the entire Yuktra Hill Royal City, not to mention the ancient magic family, Ansber, whose foundation is unfathomable.

But now, the glorious light of the Golden Tree Guard has been shattered by a single punch from that young man in the Plaza of Honor. The members of the guard are filled with hatred, but they dare not step forward. They can only place their hopes on their vice-captain, the Dharma King, and the prince.

Leido's triple senses were incredibly sharp; he had already detected the complaints of these incompetent and playful guards, but he smiled dismissively, looked up at the Spanish prince questioning him in the low sky, and said nothing.

"Young man... it's not easy to reach such a level at such a young age, but you should surrender now to avoid a premature death for such a talented person!" The short and stout Prince of Spain unleashed a terrifying magical power, pressing down on Ledo.

Ledo felt as if a mountain of thousands of pounds of rocks had suddenly pressed down on his shoulders, and his body sank rapidly. But he gritted his teeth and persevered. First his legs, then his entire body, sank into the broken floor of the Plaza de la Honor, but he never knelt down.

"The Prince of Spain is quite arrogant, but is it not a disgrace to the royal family to bully the younger generation by treating the junior students of my Mount Everest Magic Academy in this way?"

Seven magicians flew in from the sky, led by an old woman in black robes. Her strong features and snow-white hair exuded a cold and tough aura. She was none other than the Dark Elder Dako, one of the Seven Elders of the Elements.

Dark Elder Dako is also a member of the royal family. Although she is not yet the Dharma King, her powerful aura is in no way inferior to that of the Spanish prince. She directly waved her wand, and a black stream of light shot out, dispelling the magical pressure on Leido's body.

As soon as Gabard emerged from the Ancient Tree Realm, Old Knight immediately sent a message back to the academy, requesting the assistance of the other six deans. He knew that he alone was not enough to contend with the powerful forces of the empire.

“Dako… I am here to personally judge the heretics of the Light and Shadow Society. Don’t make a mistake!” The Prince of Spain looked displeased, but did not continue to attack, clearly having some concerns about Elder An.

The prince's noble status and position are extraordinary, but in the empire, princes like Siban are not uncommon, and the position of Dark Elder Dako is equally important in the imperial royal family.

"Trial of the villains is your business, what does it have to do with me? But I vouch for this prodigy in our court!"

Dark Elder Dako is the Dean of Law Enforcement at the Mount Everest Magic Academy. He is usually stern and strict, but it is unexpected that he would be so protective of his own, not even giving face to the Prince. He vouched for Leido without investigating anything, showing obvious favoritism.

"Deans... I'm not a member of the Light and Shadow Society. Here's what happened..." Ledo emerged from the depression in the ground. He looked gratefully at Elder An and hurriedly told the seven deans the information he had gathered deep within the secret realm. This was the important matter.

"What? The Dragonkin, the Light and Shadow Society, and the Demon Puppet Clan have formed an alliance?" Old Man Fan'er, though short in stature, possessed a surge of magical energy. He stared in astonishment, his eyes wide as if they were about to burst into flames.

"Overthrow the imperial royal family... wipe out the Barrett Alliance? Those dragonmen aren't even awake yet? Hahaha..." Water Old Ward felt he had heard a joke, and unconsciously began to tease again. His tall, thin body, resembling a bamboo pole, swayed back and forth with laughter, which was quite comical.

"Be serious! What they took... might be the 'Miracle Vine'!" Old Man Soyou was robust and handsome, with golden hair like undulating rice seedlings, a real handsome man, showing no signs of old age.

"Miracle Vine? What's the use of that thing?" Old Lady Leisen, dressed in a purple robe, had an unfriendly expression as she surveyed the surrounding Golden Tree Guards. Her eyes seemed to flash with lightning, intimidating those who wanted to capture Leido.

“It seems to be the root of the divine tree… It’s definitely extraordinary!” Wind Elder Wendy, with her kind face and rosy cheeks, pulled Leido along, and used healing magic to pour a large amount of gentle magical energy into Leido’s body to heal his wounds.

"..." Only Old Knight remained silent. He stroked his white beard, his brows furrowed, as he assessed the situation on the field.

When the seven deans of the Mount Everest Magic Academy appeared together, the Golden Tree guards present immediately fell silent. Although these seven deans were not magic kings, they were all Nine Realms magicians. With the seven of them working together, they could even fight against a holy magician. No one dared to underestimate their strength.

Seeing that the Empire's highest academy had dispatched seven top experts at once, Prince Spain looked very embarrassed. He was already somewhat ashamed that Regi had escaped earlier, but if he couldn't even defeat this minor mage, he would be completely humiliated.

The Prince of Spain's eyes turned cold. He decided to forcibly detain Ledo in the name of the Imperial Royal Family and confront the Dark Elder Dako head-on. However, suddenly, the French kings on the periphery began to feel uneasy: "Your Highness... there are others!"

Following the follower's finger, behind the Seven Elders of the Elements, there were two inconspicuous old men. They were hunched over and looked very old. They looked exactly alike and were obviously twins.

The two elderly men were very old and had to use canes to walk. Strangely, when they walked slowly, each step was very ethereal, making it impossible to see their footsteps. Moreover, the two men had no breath and were extremely mysterious.

"Greetings, Elder Bell Keeper!" Leido only sensed the arrival of the Bell Keeper by using the Echo Technique. This level of Saint Magister is beyond the perception of ordinary people.

"Child...don't be afraid!" The old man who kept the bell squinted his eyes, first comforting Leido, and then surprisingly pulled out two rattan chairs and lay down comfortably, holding hot tea in his hands, savoring it carefully, not caring at all about the gazes of others.
