Need clarification for part of code, not solution

It simply getting the value present at index 5000.

public static void get10000(List list) {
        if (list.isEmpty()) return;
        int x = list.size() / 2;     // x = 5000

        for (int i = 0; i < 10000; i++) {
            list.get(x);  //every time it get a value of index 5000 for every iteration i.e., for 10000 times it get an value of index 5000.
        }
    }

In my opinion it would. X wont change at all during the For Loop, so all list.get(x) will always return the same value. The int x = list.size() / 2 statement will get you to the middle of the list. I just dont get the point of the for loop.
