When the entire class is swept into the blood-soaked, bizarre Yuren High School, where breaking the rules means becoming food for the shadows, and the five-day countdown appearing on the blackboard marks the end of everyone's life, Chen Yue realizes that the only way to survive is not to obey the rules, but to become the one who makes them.
Here, anyone who makes a noise dies, and anyone who gives a wrong answer perishes. Every step is a deadly trap. While his classmates struggle to survive in terror, Chen Yue can see the true intent flowing beneath the rules. He exploits loopholes and builds his strength, going from a student fighting to stay alive, to controlling the cafeteria's resources, and finally earning the recognition of the teachers from the bizarre realm.
He must not only lead the survivors through the next five days, but also face the principal with the fog-shrouded face and uncover the school's ultimate secret. When the final trial arrives, Chen Yue stands before the principal's office, facing the last rule:
[Anyone applying for the position of principal must prove they are qualified to make rules and decide who lives or dies.]
Will he become the new master, or fall victim to the rules? The final battle over order and human nature begins now.
