Su Ping reached the fourth layer of the Dragon Gate, gaining the precious True Dragon Mark but was ultimately expelled. The Legend of the Holy Dragon recognized Su Ping's Dragon Might talent, explaining his rapid ascent. Now that Su Ping has gained the Dragon's Mark, he is advised to rest before the final trial, though he wishes to meet Meng Huangliang.
The intense sun blazed overhead, making Su Ping relive the sensation of returning to the human world. In Dragon City, such celestial phenomena or even a sky were absent; everything existed in a state of unreality, with the passage of time feeling indistinct and illusory. This surreal atmosphere left Su Ping feeling somewhat uneasy. Now, having departed from it, he finally exhaled a breath of relief. He checked his phone, noting the time. He had entered in the morning, conversed with Legend of the Holy Dragon, and stepped through the Dragon Gate, all within a span of a few hours. It was now one in the afternoon, leaving him ample time. "Sister Long!" he called out to Long’er, the guard stationed at the Dragon City entrance on the corner of the Imperial Capital’s street. Su Ping then inquired, "Do you know the location of the Fountain of Life Sanatorium?" Su Ping’s question initially caused Long’er a moment of confusion, her reaction delayed. After a brief pause for thought, she nodded, stating, "If there's only one sanatorium in the Capital City bearing that name, then I am aware of it." Su Ping affirmed, "Let’s head there then." Without further questions, Long’er drove the special vehicle provided by the Dragon Dynasty Club. Navigating unfamiliar streets, they meandered through the city, eventually arriving at a secluded district. Contrary to what Legend of the Holy Dragon had suggested, the place that materialized before them was, in fact, a sanatorium that appeared remarkably ordinary. The individuals entering and exiting were predominantly elderly, often accompanied by their adult children. Occasionally, extremely aged pet beasts were also present. It was apparent that this establishment served not only humans but also elderly pet beasts. "Hello, I wish to visit a patient named Meng Yan. He is in the psychiatric department," Su Ping stated. Had it not been for Legend of the Holy Dragon’s prior assurance, Su Ping would never have believed that the so-called Legendary Agent, targeted by Eagle Country, would be found in such a humble setting. Yet, the facts were undeniable. The receptionist, without seeming to recognize Su Ping as the recently celebrated young genius breeder whose fame had swept the nation, merely glanced at him and nodded. Without requesting any registration, she picked up a walkie-talkie and announced, "Someone is here to see patient number 43. Please escort them." Shortly thereafter, a middle-aged woman, donning black-rimmed glasses and a white coat, approached with a smile. "Hello, Breeder Su. I am the caretaker for patient number 43. Please follow me." Su Ping raised an eyebrow and followed the woman, with Long’er staying close behind. Throughout their walk, no superfluous conversation ensued, and Su Ping did not probe into how she recognized him. Thus far, his observations were of a commonplace sanatorium, devoid of any unusual characteristics. However, as they proceeded deeper, the number of people Su Ping encountered dwindled. Moreover, their path did not involve ascending any stairs; instead, they continued through a series of corridors. Finally, the woman in the white coat halted. "Breeder Su, we have arrived! Rest assured, Colonel Meng's Soul Contract is sealed, and his spiritual power is suppressed. He poses no threat to you!" Su Ping gave a slight nod. Even with this reassurance, Long’er seemed reluctant to allow Su Ping to enter the unassuming room alone, remaining by his side. It was a simple, single room, complete with a private restroom and bathroom, and an immaculately made bed. Standing by the window, a man's silhouette was visible, his back to the door. Upon hearing the door open, the silhouette smiled. "Ah Mei, today’s lunch has already been..." Before he could finish, the man turned, noticing two unfamiliar figures. A flicker of confusion crossed his face, quickly replaced by understanding. "Hello, you are...?" Su Ping raised his eyebrows. The man showed no signs of mental distress; on the contrary, he appeared entirely composed. Therefore, Su Ping offered a gentle smile. "Hello, Elder Meng. I am Su Ping. You may not have heard my name. I am here to give you..." Before he could complete his sentence, a smile bloomed on Meng Yan’s resolute face. "No, no, no, it’s merely a formality. I know of you! You are the genius breeder recently recognized in Dragon Country. Not yet twenty, and you’ve already bred two Super-Rank skills, one even surpassing the Hall of Fame level, correct? Hehe, the recent dream world scenarios are becoming increasingly peculiar and intriguing, encountering such an extraordinary genius. It seems the Cunning Eagle’s creativity is waning, hahaha." The man chuckled heartily as Su Ping pondered. "Elder Meng, do you truly believe all of this is merely within a dream world, and that I am a fictional creation?" "What else could it be? Of course, perhaps you do exist, just not under this name in reality. It's possible there truly is such a genius in Dragon Country."

Perhaps your original identity was an outstanding breeder from Eagle Country, but in this dream, you have transformed into Su Ping, the acclaimed genius breeder from Dragon Nation?

Furthermore, upon your appearance, this current thought process might also align with the calculations of that cunning strategist from the Eagle faction within the council?

Through your actions, they might deduce that a breeding prodigy is rising in Eagle Country. To admire Eagle Country and betray Dragon Nation? Absolutely not! I would sooner die than betray my homeland!
