Gu Wenheng wasn't sure which of his remarks had just prompted such a feeling from the other man.
At that moment, he was gazing quietly at the crowd below. "It's better to make it into the 'fortress,' at least. Some can still stay true to themselves and start a new chapter in life.
But those who don't make it in won't be content to stop here. They'll just continue to struggle on, day after day."
As he spoke, another person was carried out of the crowd, likely someone who had fainted upon learning they had failed.
"Master?" Gu Wenheng thought he heard Ming Feng calling. Looking toward where they had been standing, he indeed saw Ming Feng and Brother Liu's attendant student shouting for them.
"That's my attendant student. I'll go get them," Liu Wenping said, spotting them as well. He acted faster than he spoke, turning and rushing out.
At this, Gu Wenheng's heart started to pound with excitement. "I'll go down and take a look too."
