Aantha didn't know what to say at that point. Even if Ryu didn't take the survival rate of the test seriously because he looked down on their Asura Race, there was no one who didn't understand the kind of power Transcended Sky Gods held, let alone Omniscient Sky Gods.
These were existence that formed Dynastic Daos at the worst and had also brought them to maturity. The gap between someone with an immature Dao and a mature one was unfathomable. Even for Ryu who could be considered to have four separate Hegemonic Daos, he would lose out thoroughly to a mature Common Grade Dao wielded by a Fragmented Sky God, this was how exaggerated it was.
There was no lack of geniuses who had powerful Daos in states of maturity, and yet had no choice but to settle for weaker variations of their path in order to succeed in forming their Godhoods. Sometimes, one might fall as much as one or two grades before succeeding!
