Outside the Blue Orchid Pavilion, a man found himself halted by two imposing guards stationed at the entrance.
"Sir, could you please show us your invitation?" The first guard inquired with a tone of professionalism, his gaze fixed on Mo Chen who stood before them wearing attire that appeared rather ordinary.

Their initial meeting had occurred during a stone gambling event. Bai Wenling had been accompanied by the retired dean of Qingyun University, and Mo Chen's exceptional performance had caught the attention of both the dean and Bai Wenling herself.
