The truth was that Ryu was correct, these were paths that tested ones luck. Not everyone would find a room of treasures and a path to exit immediately, many more would find challenges, and only a number slightly less than this would die, never to see the light of day again.
The Heavenly Path wasn't so kind, and it was surprisingly because of Ryu's choice that someone else was able to get lucky.
Most who were lucky enough to reach the stage that Ryu had chose to leave, they had no business here, nor did they feel the need to continue risking themselves. The large majority of them were Sixth Heaven geniuses and this was more than they had expected of themselves.
However… the Seventh Heaven geniuses, many of whom were matched up against Sky Gods along at least one path, beaten and bloodied, glared at the cube and continued forward.
