In the High Heaven realm, you hardly see origin gods around. Sovereigns are usually the ones that go about taking care of the race or family. The higher the number of sovereigns an organization has the more pull they can have in the ancient battlefield. But when sovereigns become origin gods they must leave High Heaven and go to the upper realm because they will face a sense of suppression from the power of the world. This power of the world acts to suppress every creature within a realm to the sovereign level. So every origin god feels a sense of discomfort from the weakness. It isn't apparent to new origin gods but when they leave for the upper realm and return, the difference becomes stark clear. The minimum requirement to leave for the upper realm is the sovereign level of power but you can bring weaker people with you. It is just that the weakest person that can survive in the upper realm is the king of law or the mid-god level of power. The upper realm is truly where Dragons come to create their lair, if you aren't a dragon yourself then you just might become dragon chow.
Gehald used to do business with the group of "cool" guys Staten mentioned. They are a mercenary group, and sometimes they would need healing. At their levels of power, it is difficult to get injured but when they are injured it is very difficult to heal. So they would need some truly precious healing treasures to get back in shape. He would get them life essence from his plane if the injury was serious and life-threatening, but other times he would use his mastery of the law of life to heal them. It wasn't a surprise that these types of people would want him around when they plan to go to a very dangerous place. He rubbed his forehead before answering "I won't be able to Staten. I still have some business to take care of and it will take a while."
"Really? Are you sure it's not because of stellae? I can let her go you know. We need you, we need an origin god with a life ring."
"What is this about stellar?" Gehald asked in exasperation.
Staten tried to convince him but he shook his head and turned the switch. He had things to do after the trial of heaven was over. His grand plan for perfection will be carried out in high heaven. He will take as much power as he could, but before that he will have to count the time until he could access his reward. His patience will only be rewarded after a few hours of fighting. It wasn't long but for some they just wanted to be out of the tower as soon as possible, they want to forget what they went through and what they did. Like the giant beside Gehald, the giant had long cried himself to sleep.

The matches were quick and short in the case where there was a margin between the fighters but it was gruesome for others with similar levels of power which was the majority of the fights. No one who could survive up to this level was weak, they could be incompatible in skills which could cause an illusion of weakness, but no one could be disregarded. And so without much fanfare, the challenge section ended and all their booths were suddenly transformed into a private room.
Gehald's lethargic mind became active again when his surroundings changed suddenly. He focused a while to listen to the message from Mother High Heaven. Her message contained information about the reward list and that this was where he would be till the end of the trial. This period is for those that won origin essence to use it. It will take time and any disturbance could endanger their breakthrough, even injure them severely.
Gehald checked his room, it was small like the arena. It was demarcated into sleeping quarters, a library, a laboratory for runesmithing, blacksmithing, alchemy, and others. There was also a meditation section. The most notable quality about this place was the quality and quantity of origin energy, as a high elf who has a high affinity with magic he could tell that there was probably not anywhere in all of High Heaven that could beat this place in the concentration of origin energy.
The origin energy, the peace, and the personal monitoring from mother High Heaven will all ensure an easy transition to the origin god level for those that want to advance. Gehald shook his head wistfully, he wished he could use this place to become an origin god but he had another plan for his future.
He stopped looking around and tried to sense his pocket dimension. He nodded when he realized he had regained access. He decided to just get his rewards, maybe read a few books that will increase the chances of success for his plan. He brought up his status and indicated for the reward list.
