”Juniors these days…” A sigh containing helplessness and disappointment escaped from the lips of an old man who's resting inside a private room. ”Their determination is to brittle, its awful.”
”As much as I hate to agree with you, your words are right.” Another old man sighed as well, ”These Juniors had been too pampered.”
”These really can't be helped, Your Excellency's…” A middle aged man that has an aura of a gentleman and a scholar shook his head but his tone also contains a disappointed tone. ”The hark work of our Ancestors brought us peace, but at the same time, that same peace caused the younger generation to slack off.”
”I feel bad for you and the sect Nephew Henry.” One of the old men sighed, ”You might not be bringing a lot of people back this time even though the sect already lowered the standards for their disciples.”
”It's alright, Your Excellency Heaven Slayer. None of these Juniors could be blamed for that.” Henry shook his head, ”Though if I'm being honest, I am hoping that some of these Juniors could surprise us.”
”Don't worry. Howard and I already decided that we will send some of our disciples to boost your numbers. Hopefully, these should make things easier for you people. After all, what you guys face, are a little too troublesome.”
”I, on behalf of our sect, thank Your Excellency Void Obliterator and Heaven Slayer's love and concern for the sect. We will do our best to ensure the safety of your disciples and give them multiple serendipities.”
”Hahaha! Very well, then I'll leave them at your capable hands.”
After this conversation the room feel silent once more and everyone went back to watching the participants try their best to endure the Test of Knowledge.
In truth however, none of them were really paying much attention what's happening with the participants. In fact, the Empyreans Heaven Slayer and Void Obliterator couldn't care less about the results of these exams at all. They might be watching the events on the table but their thoughts are somewhere else.
And as one of the current War Gods of Ancient Elysium Sect, how could Henry not notice this? Not only was he aware that these Empyreans weren't paying attention to the live feed, he also understood the underlying meaning behind their words.
Nevertheless, his performance was quite admirable too. Nothing that these two Empyreans say could cause his composure to fade. He was aware and alert, which is why even the Empyreans couldn't underestimate him.
'You two old monsters could scheme all you want. If you want to play, then play we shall. Hopefully when time comes, you'll be able to cough up something that could quell the sect's rage.”

”10th revival…”
A murmur swept through blood colored field. If sounded like a faint sigh but this in fact, could cause some people's heart to shake.
With how many times he dies and revived, its quite impossible for Raven not to understand the true purpose of the Test of Will but he didn't think much about it. After all, even though he understood its purpose, he had no idea what are the requirements to pass this test.
Actually, instead of treating it like test, Raven treated this like his everyday training inside the Crown Space.
To Raven, dying multiple times isn't something new at all. Hell, he actually feel a little unsettled during days when he didn't even once. Dying has already become a part of his daily life, so dying multiple times in a row didn't really have that much effect to him.
Which is why instead of being bothered by the seemingly endless cycle of death and rebirth along with the ceaseless killing. Raven started using this to train instead.
Raven constantly refined his fist techniques again and again. Though his progress isn't much due to his enemies being weak, it is still remarkable since he's working in tandem with his Avatars.
Additionally, Raven was also using the technique he learned during the second test. In the end, Raven decided to call it the [Allheaven Restriction Scripture]. His expertise in using the first five seals were refined to a higher level.
Not only does each seal appear more vibrant and profound, the area of restriction they caused widened too. Each seals could restrict the area about the same size as his Champion's Influence, which is 30 miles around Raven. Depending on what restriction seal he used, the effect was maximized and none of these crazed and demented people could break the seals.
