Therefore, due to a single glimpse, Tang Qi found himself in a somewhat awkward situation.

In his mind, the song continued.

If possible, Tang Qi would willingly press the pause button.

However, it seemed out of his control.

The song, along with its inherent bizarre pollution from "Supreme Divinity," was creeping in.

There was no great harm, just gradually causing Tang Qi to appear embarrassed.

Though the singing voice was quite simple-minded, the lyrics were unexpectedly enchanting.

Those lyrics particularly carried a "memory erasure" characteristic; after listening, Tang Qi only remembered they were enchanting, bizarre, and funny.

But as for the specific lyrics, even Tang Qi, who possesses compulsory narrative and epic tragicomedy authority, could not recall them.

Only the last line did the memory erasure disappear.

In his mind, Tang Qi heard constantly "ding ding ding," and then that simple-minded voice became slightly sharper, filled with excitement and joy, shouting:

"Ho ho ho... humorous, humorous, this is a humorous grand adventure."

"Come on, come on, play with me, nobody dislikes humor, just like nobody dislikes starfish."

Finally, the last line fell.

Tang Qi, this Dream Master, was forced to listen to the magical opening song to the end.

Afterward, Tang Qi faced a small choice.

Whether to participate in that grand adventure game?

Whether to become the "trump card" for the quartet?

If the game was just a boring demigod or a powerful god’s creation.

Then Tang Qi would refuse without hesitation; he was a busy master and wouldn’t be bored enough to join such a game.

But now, Tang Qi seriously considered it.

"The introduction and rules of the game have yet to be revealed; maybe I need to agree to participate before being given them?"

"The game’s origin is a Supreme Divinity, Humorous Starfish."

The second thought, Tang Qi was very sure.

Being forced at this moment, no other god could achieve this except for the Supreme Divinity.

As for whether to accept this unknown invitation?

If the invitation was extended by Origin God Race, Young Creator, Eternal Day Mad King, Tang Qi would undoubtedly refuse immediately.

But apparently, Humorous Starfish was different.

Existing interactions show this is a relatively rare Supreme Divinity, not displaying any malice, unlike the indifferent Young Creator.

It could even be said it’s a Supreme Existence with benevolence.

You must know, a Divine Artifact created by an Ordinary God carries pollution capable of eroding a city’s humans, leading to out-of-control and degeneration.

But the [Starfish Card Deck Box] did not have such, and its pollution couldn’t even affect four university freshmen.

The reason is only one, the divinity pollution that should have come with the box was actively eradicated by that Humorous Starfish.

"At my level, simply avoiding and surviving carries no meaning."

"Since the other party is a benevolent Supreme Divinity, an interaction is appropriate."

Tang Qi’s idea was without flaw.

Logically, it was very sound.

But for some reason, the moment the decision was made, Tang Qi felt a strange "unease."

It wasn’t aimed at danger, but Tang Qi felt he might regret participating in the future?

Who could have imagined? The strange foreboding became reality at an incredibly fast pace.

"Participate!"

Far within the Dream Kingdom, Tang Qi made the decision in an instant, and he saw a new rule.

"Hmm? Every trump card in the card deck box has self-customization privileges?"

"Phew"

At the same moment, within the distant Origin Star’s Secret Academy Main Campus.

Beneath Master Tang’s sculpture, the quartet without much hope was now staring blankly at the scene of mutation unfolding before them.

Above the extravagant metallic card deck box, a blank card suddenly appeared.

A brilliant and dreamy radiance was projected from the sculpture of "Master Tang," falling on the card.

The originally blank area immediately began to transform.

Starting as an eerie wooden boat, adorned with bizarre sculptures, with a ship lamp, ship oars.

Soon, a boatman appeared on it.

Seemingly to fit the "boatman" image, his clothes were somewhat worn, his face somewhat weathered.

But the quartet could recognize clearly, that was indeed Master Tang.

After all, it was still the same face, handsome, mysterious, rich in wisdom, and unparalleled in affinity.

As the unseen Great Power completed face crafting, a new card information immediately emerged in the minds of the quartet, who owned the box:

"Trump Card: Foolish Ferryman."

"Category: Abnormal. Rationality, Dominator-level God."

"Description: Dream disguise, guide, sage bringing peace, tranquility, and beautiful dreams to the world."

...

The quartet, due to their low position, couldn’t fully realize the secret leaked from this card’s brief description.

The four lucky ones were initially stunned, but then finally realized something, and their faces simultaneously lit up with joy, disregarding the curfew rules as they began to cheer.

"Yeah! Master Tang has responded, we will win the victory."

"We’ve already won, this is Master Tang, the legendary, epic Master Tang."

"Think about that unfortunate Light Dominator, even He isn’t a match for Master Tang, who can stop Master Tang."

"Hey, mind your words, according to the school rules, we should address him as Professor Tang."

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Very precisely, the oar that could paddle through the endless mystery to any place, directly popped out a card, knocking on the quartet’s heads.

The four lively pals, because Tang Qi agreed to participate, wished they could paste the victory right on their foreheads.

Having transformed into a "Foolish Boatman," Tang Qi followed right after, emerging from the card.

Holding the ship lamp, Tang Qi used the dim radiance to observe this Mysterious Side school called "Miskatonic University."

If you exclude the influence of Tang Qi, the Witch School is actually far from being comparable to this secret school.

Too many organizations contributed to its creation, especially with the full support from the official side.

Apart from high-quality Mysterious Side teaching, the campus itself is also a magical Abnormal Area, containing many secrets within.

Of course, these secrets are dangerous for newcomers but cannot evade Tang Qi’s gaze.

With a single glance, all mysteries were unraveled.

Just as Tang Qi was surveying the secret school, a Secret Alchemist with dark curly hair, who considered themselves devout and clever, sidled over.

With a mysterious expression, they volunteered, saying:

"Great Professor Tang, it might be your first time descending upon the secret school."

"I, Stan Lee, can serve as your guide."

"Let me tell you, the most attractive places in the secret school are those secret locations, like the recently popular ’Enchanting Demon Secret Realm’ that all the freshmen are frantically seeking."

"It’s said to be an Abnormal Area contained by the World Tree Foundation, placed in some corner of the campus. If you can find and enter it, you will surely enjoy the services of all the Enchanting Demons, tsk tsk, that will definitely be..."

"Bang!"

This time, the one who hit him on the head wasn’t Tang Qi’s oar, but a girl with scanty clothes and, judging by her lineage, possessed of Enchanting Demon blood.

The girl seemed a little confused, but upon hearing the Secret Alchemist’s words, she couldn’t help but angrily punch him.

Next to them, a robust, honest-looking warrior and a sneaky-looking female Spirit Medium both gave him a sidelong glance.

Despite the overly flirtatious Secret Alchemist, he was determined to please the "super thigh" in his eyes.

Covering his head, his eyes rolling, the guy gave a sycophantic smile and said:

"If you don’t want to look for the Secret Realm, why don’t we first visit the library for a tour."

"Great Professor, books about some of your experiences almost monopolize the school’s loan list."

"Like ’Evil God Slayer,’ ’Secret of the Deceiver,’ and some secretly circulated ones, the most popular being ’Principal’s Secret Affairs,’ and ’Professor’s Scandalous Girlfriends Statistics’... I’ve heard some members of the secret school drama club secretly rehearse related scenes, with tickets selling out every time..."

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

With three consecutive beats, the other three couldn’t take the whimsical Secret Alchemist anymore.

They suspected that continuing on like this, the great Deceiver might become angry, or even punish them.

The trio didn’t believe that deck box could stop Him, just a mere box? Even the Light Dominator couldn’t manage, let alone a box?

Especially since they had heard of Tang Qi’s punishments, like using the "Transformation Spell" to turn them into a donkey.

Thinking of this, the three shivered.

The Spirit Medium even grabbed the Secret Alchemist’s ear, growling in a low voice:

"Stan Lee, are you crazy?"

"What if we offend the Professor, and He turns us into donkeys?"

"You need to know that it’s the most powerful Transformation Spell. The first one to taste it was a Legendary Ancient Mage, who was turned into a donkey, and even his partner, an ancient female demon, couldn’t undo it."

The Spirit Medium warned, while the other two nodded obediently in agreement.

Meanwhile, the Secret Alchemist named Stan Lee, rubbing his ears, said with grievance:

"I was just telling the Professor how popular he is in the secret school, how can that offend the Professor."

"He is the greatest scholar, the most powerful Wizard, the most tolerant Principal and Professor..."

Within this series of flattery, Tang Qi helplessly turned to look at the continually jesting quartet.

Tang Qi did not doubt the "secret school’s" standard for recruiting new students. Considering the Federation’s mysterious side’s current situation, these four would be considered geniuses.

Professions of Demon Hunter, Enchanting Demon Witch, Secret Alchemist, and Spirit Medium respectively, all of them in Tang Qi’s view of the future, reached at least the "Legendary Level."

Among them, the Secret Alchemist even successfully advanced to Demigod.

But these beautiful futures couldn’t change the fact that the four of them had unreliable personalities.

Reliable freshmen wouldn’t venture out during curfew, armed with unknown Curios, to pray for a Sovereign’s manifestation to serve as their ace card, helping them win a grand adventure game.

Now Tang Qi guessed why he would regret it. He thought of something and looked at the quartet, then asked:

"Besides the ace card, how many cards have you gathered?"

As soon as the question was asked, the quartet’s bright smiles were replaced with awkwardness.

The Spirit Medium, who ordinarily made mischievous expressions despite their beauty, cautiously raised two fingers and said with a flattering smile:

"Two... two cards, this box’s card reviewing standard is too excessive, we’ve been very, very diligent."

"Exactly, this stupid box, it’s making things difficult for the four of us."

"But don’t worry, the two cards we have are enough to guarantee basic survival once we enter the big adventure world."
