Chapter 414: Observation gives meaning

"Here goes nothing," one of the cultivators muttered right as he pushed his leg forward and placed it on the bridge. He then slowly transferred his weight from his left leg on the ground to his right one on the bridge, testing whether or not the entire thing would collapse under his weight or not.

'So far so good,' I thought, watching the proceeding with extreme focus. 

In all honestly, it wouldn't matter much to me if one or two or even ten of those cultivators were to lose their lives. Yet, the same couldn't be said about the effect such deaths would have on the morale of everyone else. 

As such, I didn't have much choice but to be as attentive as possible, ready to jump in and intervene the second any signs of looming disaster were to appear.
