It was already eleven o'clock at night. After all the trainees had posted on Weibo, the production crew confiscated their phones.
Yet, many trainees still learned what was happening online, especially regarding Instructor Wang Chen’s car accident. The police had already investigated that crash and concluded it was an accident, ruling out any possibility of foul play. The affair felt so surreal that after some rational speculation, most netizens dismissed it as a mere coincidence.
However, Instructor Wang Chen, the person directly involved, did not see it that way. He had long been aware of the strange occurrences plaguing him. He had previously hired many masters to perform rituals for him, but each time it proved useless; those people just took his money and handed him worthless Talisman Paper. Therefore, one of the reasons he was so angry when Xie Qi read his fortune earlier that day was his belief that Xie Qi—a mere youth—had likely heard about his experiences with other masters somewhere and was just spouting nonsense on the show to grab his attention. Because Xie Qi was so young and bore no resemblance to an experienced Daoist, Wang Chen had dismissed his words entirely.
