Chen Wen took a deep breath. "It truly is an excellent place to temper oneself. I'll consider it."
Li Yuntian spoke again. "I think it's also an excellent mirror for revealing demons."
"To be honest, setting aside certain objective factors, anyone who can make the rankings is already a towering figure in their own right."
Chen Wen considered it before saying, "What you're talking about is more of a measure of potential, isn't it?"
"You could put it that way. Because of the ranking divisions, when viewed from the broader picture, it is more a matter of who has greater potential."
"But when people of the same rank are compared, then it comes down to whose strength is superior, doesn't it?"
Li Yuntian could not help but ask Chen Wen in return.
Chen Wen nodded. "That does make a great deal of sense."
"Come, let's stop talking about this and keep drinking."
Li Yuntian spoke again.
"Fine. Today, I'll risk my life to keep a gentleman company."
Chen Wen burst into laughter and promptly picked up his wine cup.
After three rounds of wine, Chen Wen finally rose to his feet. "Then this brother will take his leave first."
"I have rooms here. You can stay with me, seeing as you still don't have a spirit land of your own."
Li Yuntian stood as he spoke.
Chen Wen half-joked, "Haha, Brother Li, I appreciate the thought, but I can't bring disaster upon you."
"If you truly feel for this brother of yours, you can help me apply to the Territory Lord for a better spirit land."
A glint flashed through Li Yuntian's eyes. "If the opportunity arises, I will certainly do my best."
"Fine, don't see me out either. This little wine isn't enough to make me lose my senses."
