Shang's eyes focused again after he had gone through his memories.

And then, Shang frowned.

'That secret might make the difference between getting something good and getting something great,' Shang thought.

Then, he looked at the Dean, who only looked back.

"I'm willing to share my question and the answers with you, but I want to know something from you first," Shang said.

The Dean's expression didn't change. "As long as it's not something I can't talk about," the Dean said. "I'm also interested in what the God said."

"I want to know how your first trial in your separate space went down," Shang said.

When Shang said trial, he was referring to the test they could take once per Realm inside their separate space. The Dean had already said that this was how they could get inheritances and techniques from before the Mages' purge.

"I can answer that," the Dean said.

"There are three categories for the trial, and the scores you achieve in the categories are added together to create a final score. The higher the final score, the better techniques you get."

"First, you need to fight beasts."

"The first level is to fight an untalented beast at the Initial General Stage."

"The second level is to fight an average beast at the Initial General Stage."

"The third level is to fight a talented beast at the Initial General Stage. These beasts can win against nearly any other beast on their level."

"The fourth level is to fight a weak beast at the Early General Stage."

"And the fifth level should be to fight an average one," the Dean explained.

"You said should," Shang said. "That means you didn't try the fifth level?"

"Correct," the Dean said. "It was uncertain if I could win or not. In the end, I decided not to try the fifth level."

"The next category is to fight warriors. The levels are designed in the same way as with the beasts."

"I also barely managed to beat the fourth level, and I didn't try the fifth one."
