Zhuoyi's meaning was crystal clear.
Mr. Du had secured Chu Lingguang a chance to train in the Trial Ground, but in return, he needed Chu Lingguang to place in the top ten of the Provincial Examination.
If Chu Lingguang lacked the confidence and ability to achieve this, he shouldn't go to the Trial Ground. He should choose to train at an academy instead.
But Chu Lingguang didn't much care how important the opportunity to train in the Trial Ground was. Right now, he only wanted to know one thing: would placing in the top ten of the Provincial Examination help Guo Wei be granted the title of Grandmaster, allowing him to go to Wolf Valley Pass to free someone and thus repay the debt of gratitude he owed him?
If it would.
