Gu Xi opened the door himself; he smashed the glass on the car door, opened it, and got in.

Feeling the overwhelming Negative Energy in the carriage, Gu Xi checked each compartment one by one.

He discovered that all the Skeleton in front of him were already reacting; as soon as he entered the cubicle, the Skeleton would raise their heads and look at him with their empty eyes.

But as long as Gu Xi doesn't make a move, they have no intention of doing so.

After walking around the carriage, Gu Xi walked back to where he had first entered the carriage and stared at a Skeleton, asking, "I know this might be bothering you, but I just want to ask, where is this train going? If it keeps going around in circles, is it okay if I talk to the train conductor?"

When Gu Xi spoke, his voice didn't sound like his own; rather, it seemed to come from underground, a muffled sound that made people uncomfortable.

Despite the discomfort, this is a way to communicate with the dead— Soul Whisper.

Although the Skeleton in front of them showed no signs of movement, they were clearly already enveloped in Negative Energy and had become undead.

They had no intention of moving because Gu Xi hadn't made a move, and they didn't need to either.

Upon hearing Gu Xi's question, the Skeleton being asked raised its head, its mouth moving incessantly.

A sound similar to the Gu Xi made came from underground.

' Huo…Wo…Academy, that academy lost in time and space. Finding the train conductor won't help; he's also searching for the path to the academy.'

It's no use talking to the train conductor?

Gu Xi's heart tightened.

He never imagined that the college admission ticket would expire.

The academy has lost its way in time and space.

The train couldn't find the right route and just kept moving back and forth here.

What kind of situation is this?

Gu Xi was somewhat speechless.

He never expected that the first thing he would have to do upon arriving in the space belonging to the academy would be to find the academy itself.

However, he thanked the Skeleton and then headed towards Xu's carriage.

Gu Xi asked this Skeleton because he noticed that this Skeleton was significantly larger than the other Skeleton, most of which were children or young adults, Skeleton have been an adult in life.

Gu Xi didn't know if he was the protector of the carriage in front of him, but adult students would know more.

Now Gu Xi thought of going to other carriages to see if there was anyone there he could ask for information.

After changing train carriages, Gu Xi did encounter some adult students, but after talking with them, Gu Xi found that they all knew about the same things.

At most, the academy might disappear, or people might never find their way to it.

No one knows where the college is located, or even if it can be found.

Gu Xi hadn't solved the problem even after walking all the way to the back of the train. By then, Gu Xi had noticed that the train had left the lake and entered the mountains.

However, Gu Xi didn't focus on that; he walked back in a somewhat depressed mood.

But just as he was walking from the eighth carriage to the seventh carriage, he suddenly saw something West One District by in the mountains outside the train.

Gu Xi's eyes narrowed, and without saying a word, he pushed open the door at the junction of the carriages and jumped out. He simply jumped up, and the Evil Coffin appeared at his feet. Then, with a flash of sparks, the Evil Coffin carried Gu Xi into the forest.

As Gu Xi jumped off the train, he looked back once more.

He discovered that the train neither sped up because he had boarded nor slowed down because he had left; whether he boarded or not was irrelevant to the train.

Gu Xi didn't pay much attention to the situation. In his opinion, one more person on the train wouldn't make a difference, and one less person wouldn't make a difference either.

On the contrary, the figure that flashed by in the mountains and forests seemed a bit suspicious.

Gu Xi hadn't seen it very clearly before, but when he caught up, Gu Xi found that this person's movement was quite strange. He was always jumping around on the branches. If it weren't for the fact that he was about the same size as a normal person, Gu Xi would have thought that he was a flying monkey.

The Evil Coffin chased after it on the ground, but no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't close the distance inside.

Gu Xi was getting anxious. He tapped the Evil Coffin with his Cold Wind Staff and asked, "Can you use the Weird Flash?"

As soon as Gu Xi gave the order, the Evil Coffin activated its teleportation ability. However, this teleportation had no effect whatsoever, as the Evil Coffin only moved forward less than two meters.

It's obvious that what's running ahead isn't the strange one.

This left Gu Xi somewhat helpless.

It seems that some of the previous methods are no longer applicable.

So Gu Xi prepared to make his move. Just as he raised the Cold Wind Staff, the figure suddenly sank downwards and disappeared into the forest.

Gu Xi was startled and quickly turned around to look, only to find that the path he had come from was gone, and all around him were lush green trees.

"It's a ghost."

Gu Xi muttered something and jumped out of the Evil Coffin.

He never expected that after tracking them all the way here, they would be gone.

What kind of awful academy is this? Can't people even have a proper school experience?

Gu Xi had originally planned that after entering the academy, he would find a way to learn leadership skills first, whether through practical learning or academic study, it wouldn't take much time.

He just wanted to learn leadership skills along with three other skills, whatever.

How could I have been sent to such a godforsaken place?

Gu Xi thought to himself with some frustration as he walked to the spot where the figure had disappeared.

Here, Gu Xi's eyes lit up; he noticed something was off about the ground.

Gu Xi pressed the ground, a look of certainty in his eyes. Where Gu Xi had pressed, a foul-smelling stream of blood had already flowed out from the ground.

This is Burial Ground, and Burial Ground where a large number of corpses are buried.

Gu Xi had specifically studied this situation when he was in school.

This ground, which oozes foul blood when pressed, is Burial Ground created using special methods and a large number of corpses.

If a necromancer were to discover such Burial Ground in the wild, he would be overjoyed, as it would be equivalent to finding a huge Corpse Pile. With just one use of the Summoning, replenishing his army by a thousand or eight hundred would be no problem.

But Gu Xi in front of him did not have a clear smile on his face.

He had already discovered by pressing the button that there was only one corpse under the Burial Ground. Gu Xi knew very well that if one corpse could create a Burial Ground, then how powerful must the corpse under it be?

At this point, Wei Xi had to Gu Xi choice: should he wake up the corpses below to inquire about the situation, or should he simply give up this opportunity and return to the train?

Gu Xi had a feeling that this choice would be related to his entry into the academy.
