Chapter 1183: The Ancient Dilemma.

What he learned improved his already good mood. He couldn't help but brag to Legion-8. "Looks like our competition isn't done yet. You haven't won yet."

"Hmm. I know it is unlikely but you can still die in the blood crucible."

Aeternus joined in, "That will be very funny and very embarrassing. It is like Soverick losing to baby Kayla."

It would be truly shameful if he died in the blood crucible to some young ignorant mana entity whereas Soverick fought mana entities that are ancient gods with many years of fighting experience and didn't fail. 

It would be as shameful as being defeated by Kayla as a baby. Kayla is a battle sage monkey without a bloodline. Soverick didn't lose to those who had bloodlines so it would be terribly shameful to die in the blood crucible.
