Lu Mingfei has spent most of his life feeling ordinary, overlooked, and uncertain about his future. Then an acceptance letter arrives from Cassell College, an elite foreign school he never applied to. With few reasons to stay behind, he accepts the strange invitation and boards a train toward a life he cannot imagine.

Cassell is no ordinary university. Its students are human-dragon hybrids trained for an ancient war against dragons, and Lu has somehow been admitted among them despite showing none of the extraordinary gifts expected of a recruit. As lessons turn into deadly missions and secrets surrounding his own identity deepen, the unremarkable young man finds himself standing at the center of a conflict that has shaped human history from the shadows.
