"Phew, this method is a bit rudimentary, but it's truly straightforward and effective. At the very least, it should weed out more than ninety percent of the people, right?" Song Jian thought to himself.

Song Jian took a deep breath; the stone staircase had tens of thousands of steps. The weight he had to carry would get heavier and heavier, and the longer it took, the less likely he would succeed.

With that in mind, Song Jian couldn't help but quicken his pace, striding toward the staircase above.
