  • Hunter A arrived with food for only twelve guests, and the answer wall warned that one person would die at the banquet.
  • You Huo intervened when Hunter A threatened the guests, broke Hunter A’s goblet, and was assigned a punishment supervised by Qin Jiu.
  • The exam awarded the group eleven points before giving them a new task to find special tableware without damaging it, and You Huo found a hidden name inside Hunter A’s goblet.

  • Qin Jiu showed You Huo the reward cards and explained that the black cards represented examination-system reforms taking effect that day.

Arc 2Black Granny’s Dolls

You Huo and the others faced a Romani listening and reading exam in Chasu Village, where Black Granny’s riddles and unfinished dolls exposed them to deadly nighttime attacks. The group survived the first attack and began investigating the village’s graves, dolls, and strange creatures as the exam continued.

  • You Huo drew a commendation and an Invigilator’s Help card, then escaped the cabin’s attack with the others and reached an examinee rest stop.
  • After resting, You Huo led the group into a foreign-language exam, where the broadcast assigned them Romani and a minibus took them to Chasu Village.
  • The village chief warned the examinees about Black Granny, and You Huo shared a room with Qin Jiu before they visited her house for a listening test.
  • You Huo interrupted Black Granny’s gibberish, recorded her speech, and noticed that the group’s yarn dolls had mismatched limbs, warning everyone not to sew.
  • You Huo and the others questioned villagers and searched the surrounding graveyard, where You Huo found Black Granny’s name, Floure Jaroka, and earned the group five points.
  • A reading task ordered the examinees to deliver dolls to villagers, while Chen Bin survived an attack that cut off Liang Yuanhao’s legs and left him missing.
  • Black Granny collected the dolls, and You Huo stayed overnight with Qin Jiu, who caught a cleaver-wielding ghost arm and handed it to him as a gift.
  • The group pinned down the ghost arm and considered how the exam’s nighttime creatures and added complications might affect their survival.
