Archaeology Tournament: The Campus Belle Asked Me to Team Up and Play the Silent Guy

The Dragon Kingdom has lost much of its history, so the annual archaeology graduates' practical competition has become a major event watched by the entire nation.

The campus belle Xia Yue, acting out of spite, invited Ye Xuan, an invisible nobody who ranked last in every subject, and his best friend Wang the Fatty to team up with her.

They got off to a strong start, even choosing a Warring States silk manuscript that had stumped the nation for ten years as their tomb-exploration clue.

When no one, not even Xia Yue herself, had any confidence they could win,

a miracle appeared!

In just one hour, the taciturn Ye Xuan she knew as the "bottle" skillfully found a hidden map in the manuscript;

inside a water cave, he pinched a corpse beetle between two fingers and used a drop of blood to subdue a female ghost trying to escape by possessing a corpse;

after entering the tomb, he chased down zombies with a black-gold ancient blade, saving the three of them from death several times...

Though the Fatty talked nonsense, he too displayed all manner of extraordinary abilities and tricks.

Only after they won first place and solved a thousand-year-old mystery

did Xia Yue understand: they weren't a taciturn bottle and a burden at all. They were both absolute treasures!

Not a livestream filler story, but an archaeology mystery-solving tale.
