People. So many people.
All sorts of people.
As Su Ping walked out of the trial grounds, he felt less like a person than some rare, exotic pet beast surrounded by spectators in a cage.
In fact, Su Ping's impression was pretty close to the truth.

Most importantly, those standing at the front of the crowd had only one thought when they first caught sight of the figure walking out.
