As soon as Shiba saw the stairs, he walked towards them.
He didn't know how much time he would need to complete all the tests, and although the Grand Patriarch wouldn't be able to flee, Shiba knew that with the incoming Holy War, it would be great if he could return sooner.
However, that would be only after he killed the Grand Patriarch, which the will of the fragment of legacy already told that was the final boss, so he would be able to obtain the fragment of legacy at the same time.
As Shiba reached the end of the stairs, the stairs disappeared. Once the test started, there wasn't a path to retreat.
Shiba could still give up if the test was too much for him, but that would mean giving up completely on his revenge since the Grand Patriarch would never leave that place alive because he was set as part of the testing grounds.
As soon as the stairs disappeared, thousands of figures raised from the ground.
"First test. Defeat all the golems. You can use whatever method you have."
