 Druid Poly's level up only impacted his status by a tiny amount. In other words, an extra big druid under his power did not make much difference.

Both the royals and the big druids held immense respect for him. He was now a powerful house in the elves.

When the news of Abel leveling up an elite druid through the tree of life began to spread, all the druids went insane. Especially the ones stuck in rank 20.

Their insanity drove them to try and connect with master Bennett by all means necessary. No matter if they were from the royals or the nobles, they all wanted to become master Bennett's followers.

They were willing to sacrifice everything, but the only one they could see was Druid Gunter. They couldn't even see Big Druid Poly, who was in a retreat practicing top-level spells.
