Yu-Gi-Oh!: This card wants to go to you.

Several chefs behind him shouted in unison:

"Cook with heart, and we'll get the job done!"

“Great service.” Immy nodded with a stiff smile, extending her supercomputing ring to pay. “Don’t be so professional next time.”

At this moment, Luo Bai glanced at the time and said, "Uh—I'm going to the restroom. You guys go back first, don't wait for me."

"It can't be that bad, how long can it take to go to the bathroom..." Immy suddenly thought of something, looked down at the time, and her pupils contracted sharply.

At 9:00 AM, the [Uncharted Territory] will open.

"Uh--"

Her expression shifted, and she stammered to the other students, "I also need to use the restroom. You guys go back first, no need to wait."

Amidst everyone's puzzled expressions.

Immi caught up with Luo Bai with quick little steps, shouting as she ran, "Bai, wait for me, let's go together!"

"Oh~" Everyone smiled knowingly: "I see, such rapid progress."

...

"Where's the test paper?"

After receiving a call from the head of teaching, Yi Lan rushed back to the college office.

The instructor handed Luo Bai's written test paper and said, "The test paper is too strange. How are we going to divide the students into classes?"

Yi Lan took the tablet, flipped through the written test paper, and her brows furrowed even more.

"How exactly did he take the exam...?"

This exam paper is particularly strange.

I got most of the general knowledge questions wrong, but I got full marks on the dueling-related questions, including those beyond the syllabus.

"Could it be that he wants to control the score, or that he has a secret he doesn't want to attract too much attention?" the head coach speculated.

Yi Lan shook her head and said, "He uploaded a silver coin certificate in his registration information, which was for the purpose of getting preferential treatment."

"He probably really doesn't know how."

"You really don't know?!" the head instructor exclaimed in astonishment. "You don't even know the three steps of the [Qi Sensing] principle? My three-year-old daughter knows how to fill it in."

Yi Lan frowned, staring at the blank fill-in-the-blank question, her heart filled with mixed feelings. She pondered repeatedly: "Under what circumstances would a person lack common sense, yet be proficient in dueling?"

Chapter 17X (Sirens)

"The Sirens...carrying everyone's hopes...live on..."

Uncharted Territory - Dragon Temple.

"To save me, Sister Rusaka used her last strength to create a phantom bubble, which was imprisoned in my place."

"That's how I escaped from that terrifying biochemical laboratory."

Twelve-year-old Yilan listened to the merman sister in front of her telling a story, nodding as if she understood but not quite: "And then what?"

"Then I drifted in these waters."

"I don't know how much time passed... and then... you caught me..."

"I'm so amazing!" Yi Lan's eyes lit up.

"Indeed, most people really can't catch me."

"And your injuries..." Yi Lan looked at the mermaid, her face showing sympathy and heartache.

"A war has broken out in my homeland; we have been invaded by the Sixth Evil."

"Where...is this place?" the siren asked, her face pale.

Yi Lan muttered to herself, "This is the little dark room. Every time I do something wrong, I get locked up here..."

"There's no one here..."

"Still not feeding us..."

She pursed her lips bitterly, looked at the stone sculpture not far away, and then smiled again.

"Luckily, I had everyone to chat with."

"Everyone?" The siren looked around in confusion. The night was dark, and there were stone coffins and statues...

There isn't a single living creature; who are these "everyone"?

“You can’t hear them,” Yilan said with a grin. “Only I can hear their voices.”

"You... can hear the sound of dragon fossils?!" Siren's expression suddenly changed, and she looked at the eleven or twelve-year-old girl in front of her with a hint of horror.

Among the more than twenty races in the continent of Biantana, the airspace, the deep sea, and the earth's core, they are recognized as the most powerful race.

Dragons!

A glint flashed in the siren's eyes as a daring plan formed in her mind.

While the silver-haired girl is still naive, they trick her into growing into a dragon ruler...

If I really do get promoted.

At that time...maybe we can rescue everyone...

"I'll take you away from here," Siren said seriously, looking at Ilan. "Can you do me a favor?"

"What a kind person!" Yi Lan's eyes lit up. "How...how are we going to get out of here..."

"The door is locked..."

“I know,” the Siren interrupted her murmur, “I also know the only way to unlock it…”

She pointed to the wooden door not far away.

"You killed that person, didn't you?"

A withered human body is embedded in the wooden door, with no sound of breathing or heartbeat. It is surrounded by restrictions and is a human life alarm clock, a specialty of the Dragon Kingdom.

The door opens when a person dies. The natural death period is ten years. The sooner you take action, the sooner you can leave the dark room.

Yi Lan lowered her head and did not reply.

“If you can’t do it, I can help you.” Siren narrowed her eyes and touched her forehead to Yilan’s.

The next instant, the mermaid's body collapsed limply, and a cold voice echoed in Yi Lan's mind.

Give me control of your body.

I'll help you kill someone.

“I…” Yi Lan seemed conflicted, on the one hand wanting to leave this awful place.

But I really couldn't bear to do it.

It's just helping him get out of trouble.

The human figure embedded in the wooden door had gone through something unknown; his entire body was as dry as a withered corpse, with protruding white and hard ribs and sunken eye sockets, resembling a mummy, making it impossible to even distinguish his gender.

It's truly worse than death.

"I..." Yi Lan closed her eyes reluctantly, relinquishing control of her body to the mermaid sister.

When he opened his eyes again, his azure pupils flashed with a chilling light.

The siren controlled its body to reach the wooden door, picked up the dagger hanging on the withered corpse, and swung it down fiercely.

"Snapped--"

The dagger pierced the key to the restrictive array, making a sound like shattering glass, and the wooden door slowly opened.

No murder, just forced entry.

[First time taking control of the body]

[A slight mistake, the puncture missed.]

"Hahaha...Big sister, you big idiot!"

The wooden door opened, revealing a vast army of followers gathered before them. It didn't look like a welcome, but rather like an armed suppression following an alarm.

"They've really messed things up, they're going to run away, hahaha..." Yi Lan squinted and laughed.

In a corner where no one is paying attention.

The siren's body sank into the water, drifting into the unknown, vast darkness...

Chapter 178 Each in Their Own Dilemma

I initially thought it was Albus's reincarnation, but now it seems that doesn't quite add up.

"Whose reincarnation could it be?"

No...it doesn't resemble anyone.

Just as she was struggling with this problem, a cute and innocent voice rang in her mind.

Sister, could this idiot be from another world?

"Another world?" Upon hearing this, Yi Lan's pupils constricted slightly, her thoughts surging like a tide. "That can certainly explain his lack of common sense, but how could he be so proficient in dueling?"

[Duels can happen in another world too!]

"That's a bit far-fetched."

"I prefer to believe that he is an incarnation of Sayyala."

Yi Lan took a deep breath and decided to put aside these unsolvable conjectures for the time being. She then said to the head of teaching beside her, "Given his special circumstances, let's arrange for him to be in the white coat class."

"Direct admission to the White Coat Class?!" The head instructor's eyes widened, his voice filled with undisguised surprise. "Dean, this is unprecedented!"

The girl in front of me, who looks to be under twenty, has always been particularly decisive and unconventional in her actions since she took over as dean. She is hard to fathom.

“Do as I say.” Dean Yi Lan remained unmoved, her eyes revealing an unyielding determination. “Have him come to my office tomorrow morning to pick up his uniform. I have something to say to him.”

"The two of them alone?" The head of the teaching staff looked somewhat strange upon hearing this.
