Starting from primitive world, building the strongest divine kingdom

"Now, representatives from each planet, please step forward to draw lots and determine your opponents for the first round." Announced Reynolds, unveiling a colossal lottery box.

Enzo, representing Planet Alfa, approached and withdrew a slip of paper from the box. Upon unfolding it, he saw the words "Planet Betta" inscribed.

Enzo mused inwardly,"It seems our first adversary is Planet Betta."

Once the drawing concluded, Reynolds proclaimed, "Well then, you all now know your opponents. You will have one week to prepare. In one week, we shall gather here for the first round of competition."

As Enzo departed from the conference room, he began to strategize a training regimen for the prodigies of Planet Alfa. He recognized that this contest would not only test the talents but also serve as a trial for his leadership.

Upon his return to Planet Alfa, Enzo went to the temple and recounted the information he had gathered.

The leader of the Envy temple inquired, "Enzo, what are your thoughts?"

Enzo proposed,"With the competition just a week away, we should commence our selection of five prodigious youths. I believe the Temple of the Seven Gods could each nominate representatives, who would then compete to secure the top five to represent us. What do you think?"

"That sounds feasible." Replied the Lust temple. "However, I have an additional suggestion. We should send some skilled individuals to gather intelligence on Planet Betta. Knowledge of both ourselves and our opponent ensures victory in every battle."

Enzo nodded, finding this to be an excellent idea. "This proposal is commendable. Understanding ourselves and our adversaries is key to invincibility. However, who shall we dispatch for this task?"

All eyes turned expectantly toward Cruise Main. Despite his youth, Cruise Main had demonstrated remarkable strength and potential in previous contests, undoubtedly making him the ideal candidate for this mission.

Cruise Main sensed the gazes of those around him, rising resolutely to declare, "I am willing to undertake this mission."

Enzo regarded Cruise Main with a glimmer of approval in his eyes. "Very well, Cruise, this task is entrusted to you. However, bear in mind that safety is paramount. While intelligence is vital, your life is even more precious."

Cruise Main nodded in acknowledgment. "I understand, Lord Enzo. I shall exercise utmost caution."

Enzo retrieved a communication crystal from his pocket and handed it to Cruise Main. "Take this communication crystal with you. Should you encounter danger or make any discoveries, contact us immediately."

Cruise Main accepted the crystal, carefully stowing it away.

Enzo inquired,"When do you intend to depart?"

Cruise Main replied,"I am ready to set off at once."

Enzo said,"Very well, take care on your journey." Then Enzo patted Cruise Main on the shoulder in a gesture of encouragement.

Cruise Main nodded, turning to leave the temple and embark on his voyage to the planet Betta.

He traversed the vastness of the cosmos, ultimately arriving at Betta. This planet boasted advanced technology, with towering skyscrapers and cutting-edge transportation weaving through the bustling city. Cruise Main navigated the throngs of people with caution, striving to remain inconspicuous.

His first stop was the arena of Betta, a venue where prodigies showcased their prowess.

Blending with the audience, Cruise Main observed the competitions intently. He noted that the talents of Betta were formidable, excelling not only in magic and martial arts but also wielding an array of sophisticated technological weaponry.

As he observed, Cruise Main utilized the communication crystal to relay updates to Enzo.

Cruise Main whispered, "Lord Enzo, I have arrived on Betta and am currently observing the competitions at the arena."

From the other end of the crystal, Enzo's voice resonated, "Well done, Cruise. Stay vigilant and avoid revealing your identity."

"I comprehend." Cruise Main remarked, and resumed his vigilant observation of the contest unfolding before him.

He noticed a prodigious young talent clad in black armor, whose swordsmanship was remarkably formidable. Nearly every strike he executed seemed destined to pierce his opponent's vital points. Cruise Main felt a surge of astonishment within, recognizing that this youth's prowess was undoubtedly on par with his own.

Cruise Main reported, "Lord Enzo, I have come across an exceptionally gifted young swordsman whose technique is truly remarkable."

Enzo remained silent for a moment on the other end of the communication crystal before replying, "Cruise, endeavor to gather as much information as possible about this young man. He may prove to be our principal adversary in this competition."

"I comprehend." Cruise Main reiterated, then turned his attention back to the talented youth.

He observed as the young man departed the arena, surrounded by a throng of admirers. Determined to follow discreetly and uncover the boy's residence, Cruise Main trailed behind him cautiously, navigating through the bustling streets until he reached the entrance of an opulent villa. The youth entered, prompting Cruise Main to find a concealed spot nearby to observe.

He retrieved the communication crystal and reported the boy's whereabouts to Enzo. "Lord Enzo, I have located the residence of the prodigious young swordsman. He resides in a lavish villa."

Enzo responded, "Excellent, Cruise. Do not act rashly. Continue to monitor his activities and report any new developments immediately."

"I comprehend." Cruise Main affirmed, settling into his concealed position, intent on watching the villa's movements.

He noted that those entering and exiting the villa were formidable warriors and magicians, suggesting that the young man held a significant standing within the Betta planet's society. Cruise Main resolved to remain hidden, hoping to unearth further intelligence regarding this extraordinary youth.

In the days that followed, Cruise Main lay in wait near the villa, keenly observing the movements of the young boy and the happenings within the estate. He noted that the boy trained daily in a practice arena, engaging in a comprehensive regimen that encompassed not only magic and martial arts but also the use of advanced technological weaponry.

Cruise Main meticulously reported these findings to Enzo, who responded with great satisfaction. "Cruise, you have performed admirably. Continue your observations. We must gather as much information as possible regarding this young prodigy."

Nodding in acknowledgment, Cruise Main resumed his covert mission. However, just as he was about to leave his vantage point in search of a place to rest, he unexpectedly spotted several suspicious figures approaching the villa.

Though their presence was well-concealed, Cruise Main's keen instincts alerted him to their arrival. A jolt of alarm surged through him—were these individuals intent on harming the boy?

He swiftly retrieved his communication crystal to contact Enzo, only to find the signal inexplicably jammed. In that moment, Cruise Main realized these intruders were prepared, and he had to act without delay.

Trailing the figures stealthily, he confirmed his fears—they were indeed after the boy. Panic surged within him. He needed to devise a plan to thwart their malicious intent and safeguard the gifted youth.

Yet, he knew that facing such formidable foes alone would be perilous. Time was of the essence, and he must find a way to delay them until Enzo and his allies arrived.

Thus, Cruise Main deliberately created a commotion to draw their attention. As expected, they immediately pursued him.

While escaping, he employed his knowledge of the terrain, weaving through the villa complex in an attempt to outmaneuver his pursuers. Nonetheless, the relentless strength of these adversaries soon closed in on him.

One of the men shouted,"Kid, don't run! You can't escape!"

Cruise Main felt a surge of dread. He needed to devise a strategy to contend with these pursuers. Glancing around, he spotted an abandoned warehouse in the vicinity and resolved to exploit its terrain to buy himself some time.

He dashed into the warehouse, with the men hot on his heels. Utilizing the obstacles and shadows within, Cruise Main evaded their assaults while simultaneously searching for a way to reach Enzo.

However, the communication crystal remained blocked, leaving Cruise Main in a state of mounting anxiety. He had to find a means to circumvent this interference and establish contact with Enzo and his allies.

In a moment of inspiration, he devised a rudimentary conductive device using the metallic items scattered throughout the warehouse, aiming to disrupt the signal jammer.

After a concerted effort, he succeeded in breaking the signal barrier and promptly connected with Enzo. "Lord Enzo, I'm in trouble. A few suspicious individuals intend to harm that brilliant young man. I'm stalling for time. Please come quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Enzo replied without hesitation, "Cruise, hold on! We're on our way!"

With that, Enzo quickly summoned the elite warriors of Alpha Planet, preparing to head to Beta Planet to assist Cruise Main.

Meanwhile, Cruise Main continued to elude his assailants. He realized that he could not prolong this standoff indefinitely. He needed to confront these adversaries.

Carefully observing their attack patterns, he noted that while they were formidable, their methods were rather straightforward. Leveraging this weakness, Cruise Main formulated a counterattack plan.

Deliberately exposing a flaw in his defense, he lured one of the men into striking at him.The individual was indeed deceived, lunging recklessly towards Cruise Main. However, Cruise Main adeptly evaded the assault and launched a counterattack, subduing him with his mastery of shadow magic.

The onlookers were astonished, rushing to engage Cruise Main. Unfazed, he wielded his profound expertise in shadow magic, entering into a fierce conflict with them.

Yet, the adversaries were formidable, and Cruise Main gradually felt the strain. He needed to devise a swift resolution. Otherwise, he would be in peril once their reinforcements arrived.

In that moment, a brilliant plan struck him. He feigned defeat and sprinted toward the warehouse's exit. Believing he was making a hasty retreat, they pursued him en masse.
