"Hey, did you hear? Someone got a Space Taboo Object in the Mystic World yesterday! They were immediately recruited by Reverse Wind Express, with a million-dollar annual salary!"

"Really? A Space Taboo Object?!"

"What's the big deal? Ye Qingyao from the class next door entered the Mystic World last week, gained the recognition of a ghostly spirit, and even made a contract. Now both Peking University and Tsinghua University are fighting over her!"

"What the hell?! A ghostly spirit contract! With her looks, she's really lucky!"

"Lucky? She relies on her strength! I just hope I get matched with a simple scenario and come back alive."

"That shouldn't be a problem, right? Don't we get one revival chance?"

"Heh, thirteen people from the class next door died last week."

"……"

Hearing the chatter around him, Jiang Che woke up in a daze.

What? Mystic World?

Thirteen people from the class next door died?

Good grief, I just took a nap, and the whole class has gone crazy?

At this moment, his classmate, Little Fatty, nudged Jiang Che's arm, eyes brimming with tears, and said, "Che Bro, once we go in, you have to look out for me. My life is in your hands~"

"You're asking him? Being handsome is useless in the Mystic World," a mocking voice came from the front row.

Jiang Che was still in a state of confusion.

He could understand every word they said, but when put together, it made no sense.

Are they out of their minds?

Are you guys just talking nonsense?

"Look at him, he's already scared stupid, coward!" the person in front snorted.

After all, the person they liked also liked Jiang Che, so they finally got to vent!

Just then, a flood of information suddenly surged into his mind.

Soon, Jiang Che understood everything.

Motherfucker... I've transmigrated.

Jiang Che rubbed his forehead.

This world was almost identical to his original one, even the people around him were the same.

But there was one huge difference!

In this world, everyone over the age of eighteen must enter a space called the Mystic World for a survival challenge!

It's like a game dungeon!

Before entering, no one knows what they'll face!

The only thing they can do is to keep consolidating the strategies of previous Uncanny Trials and improve their physical fitness, thinking ability, and mental resilience before the challenge begins!

In the Mystic World, you can obtain all sorts of incredible things.

Powers, longevity, technology, and even contracts with beings from the uncanny world!

As long as you can complete the challenge and return alive from the Mystic World, all of this could become a reality!

Many people in the world have become rich overnight, rising to the top!

But opportunities and risks coexist.

If you die in the Mystic World, you disappear in the real world too!

In the beginning, people worldwide were randomly pulled into the Mystic World without discrimination.

Some were pulled in while sleeping, some while flying on a plane, and even some while taking a dump.

During that time, countless people disappeared!

The world was shrouded in the shadow of death!

Until fifty years ago, someone signed a mysterious contract in the Mystic World.

Not only did it stop the random entry events, but it also brought back an SSS-level Taboo Object called the Mystic Stone!

With the Mystic Stone, humans could specify the time of entry!

Those who entered also received one revival chance!

Since then, the world officially entered the Mystic Era!

……

Jiang Che let out a long breath.

He looked at a device on the podium embedded with a small piece of Mystic Stone fragment.

There was a countdown on it.

In half an hour, he would also enter the Mystic World.

As time passed, the tension in the classroom grew more intense.

Everyone had their own way of relieving stress.

Some chatted, some kissed...

Jiang Che was also very nervous, after all, this could be a matter of life and death!

So, he chose to watch anime to relieve stress.

"How many floors do I have to carry a bag of rice, how many floors do I have to carry a bag of rice, how many floors do I have to carry a bag of rice..."

Soon, the countdown on the device entered the last ten minutes.

At the same time, a middle-aged woman with glasses walked into the classroom.

Seeing the newcomer, all the students returned to their seats.

The homeroom teacher, Li Lili.

"There's no need to be nervous, students. Your mindset is the most important," Li Lili said with a smile.

"How can we not be nervous? This is the turning point of our lives, or, it could mean no life at all..." someone replied.

"Anyway, if I die once, I'll just come out. At worst, I'll do manual labor in the future, it's better than dying."

"Look at you! I say, if we don't succeed, we become martyrs! We must become the best!"

"What? Have a feast at your place? Okay, okay!"

"……"

"Don't worry, according to some inside information, the difficulty for our class this time isn't high! It's likely to be a previously announced Uncanny Trial," Li Lili said.

"Teacher, you said the same thing last year."

"You say the same thing every year, and it's the same every year."

"……" Li Lili cleared her throat and clapped her hands, "Alright, everyone, perk up."

"I'll be here waiting for your return!"

"Remember, if you're not absolutely sure, exit when your revival count hits zero!"

"Uncanny Trial!"

"Officially begins!"

The timer on the device hit zero.

A flash of light.

The next second.

The entire class vanished without a trace!
