Starting from primitive world, building the strongest divine kingdom

With Reynolds' declaration, the first round of the competition officially began.

The five talented youths from Alfa Planet stood on the arena, facing opponents from different planets. Below the stage, the cheers and shouts from the audience echoed, adding even more tension to the already intense atmosphere.

The first to take the stage was Jordan Miller, whose opponent was a young boy from Gamma Planet who specialized in fire magic, named Ewan. Ewan wore a fiery-red mage robe, and his eyes sparkled with a burning intensity, as if he could ignite the entire arena at any moment.

"Come on, let me see what you've got!" Ewan taunted Jordan, his staff already poised and ready to unleash his power.

Jordan smiled slightly, drawing his longsword and assuming a battle stance. "I won't disappoint you."

With the referee's whistle, the match officially began. Ewan immediately launched his attack, sending a blazing stream of fire from his staff, rushing toward Jordan. Jordan swiftly swung his sword, cutting through the flames and counterattacking with a thrust aimed directly at Ewan.

Ewan was agile, easily dodging Jordan's attack while unleashing another fiery spell that forced Jordan to retreat step by step. The duel between the two was fierce, with Jordan's swordplay and Ewan's magic intertwining, creating a magnificent spectacle.

The audience below the arena watched with bated breath, afraid of missing any details. They were in awe of Jordan's bravery and Ewan's powerful magic, sending waves of admiration throughout the crowd.

After a heated exchange, Jordan finally spotted a flaw in Ewan's defense. Seizing the opportunity, he launched a decisive attack. With a powerful swing of his sword, a sharp blade of light cut through the air toward Ewan. Ewan noticed the danger just in time, but still couldn't avoid it completely, and the swordlight grazed his arm.

"I win!" Jordan shouted, panting, his eyes shining with the joy of victory.

The crowd erupted in cheers for Jordan's victory, and the sound of the referee's whistle echoed through the arena, confirming his win.

Next up was Bruce Brown, whose opponent was Gabrielle, a young girl from Delta Planet who specialized in shadow magic. Gabrielle wore a tight black outfit, her eyes gleaming with a mysterious light, as though she could see through everything.

Forming hand seals as he prepared to strike,Bruce Brown sneered, "Hmph, shadow magic, huh? Let's see what you've got."

Gabrielle smiled faintly, and in an instant, her figure vanished, like a phantom. Bruce Brown's heart skipped a beat as he quickly scanned the area, trying to locate her.

But just as he looked around, Gabrielle reappeared behind him, and a wave of dark energy shot toward him. Bruce Brown noticed the danger just in time, but still couldn't evade the attack completely. The dark energy struck him, causing him to stagger slightly.

Bruce Brown thought in shock,"Such speed!" He hadn't expected Gabrielle's shadow magic to be so deceptive and powerful. He couldn't afford to underestimate her anymore and immediately focused all his attention, preparing for her next move.

Gabrielle didn't give Bruce Brown much time to catch his breath. She launched another attack, sending arrow-like bolts of shadow energy toward him. Bruce Brown swung his arms rapidly, fending off the incoming shadow projectiles while looking for an opening to counterattack.

The duel between the two was fierce and intense, with Bruce Brown's shadow magic colliding with Gabrielle's in a deadly dance. The arena seemed to warp with the eerie spectacle, and the audience could feel the tension, their hearts pounding in response to the increasingly dangerous battle.

However, just when it seemed like neither side would give way, Bruce Brown suddenly launched a powerful shadow ambush. In an instant, he vanished from sight and appeared behind Gabrielle, landing a heavy punch directly into her back.

Gabrielle, though quick to sense the danger, was caught off guard by the sudden assault. She screamed in pain as Bruce Brown's fist sent her crashing to the ground.

"I win!" Bruce Brown shouted, panting, his eyes gleaming with satisfaction.

The crowd erupted in cheers for Bruce Brown's victory, and the referee's whistle sounded, confirming his win.

Next up was Kehl, whose opponent was Alex, a young archer from Epsilon Planet. Alex wore tight leather armor, holding a longbow with confident eyes that glinted with experience.

Provocatively eyeing Alex, Kehl said, "Let's see how skilled you really are with that bow!"

Alex smiled slightly but said nothing. He slowly drew his bow, an arrow nocked on the string, his gaze focused intently on Kehl.

With the referee's whistle, the match began. Almost instantly, Alex released the string, and the arrow shot forward like a bolt of lightning, aimed directly at Kehl. Kehl dodged with quick reflexes, the arrow narrowly missing his ear before embedding itself into the target behind him.

"Such speed!" Kehl thought, amazed. He hadn't anticipated Alex's archery skills to be so precise. He quickly refocused, knowing he couldn't afford to be careless.

Alex wasn't giving Kehl any breathing room. Without hesitation, he notched another arrow, firing off several more in rapid succession. Kehl, agile and quick on his feet, darted around the arena, narrowly avoiding each arrow while looking for a chance to counterattack.

The battle was intense, each arrow from Alex resembling a raindrop, relentless and fast. Kehl, relying on his nimbleness and sharp reflexes, narrowly escaped danger time and again, dodging the arrows with incredible precision.

However, as time passed, Kehl's stamina began to wane. He started feeling exhausted, and his speed in dodging the arrows slowed down.

At this moment, Alex seized the opportunity, firing an arrow that struck Kehl's shoulder.

"I win!" Alex called out with a smile, his eyes gleaming with the joy of victory.

The audience erupted in cheers for Alex's victory, and the referee's whistle sounded, declaring Alex the winner.

Next up was Raynaud. His opponent was a young man named Johnson from Zeta Planet, who specialized in Earth magic. Johnson was tall and muscular, resembling a moving mountain. He wore heavy armor and wielded a massive war hammer, his eyes filled with unwavering determination.

Staring at Johnson, Raynaud taunted, "Come on, let me see how strong you really are!"

Johnson snorted and said nothing more. He swung his war hammer and charged at Raynaud. Raynaud quickly dodged and cast Earth magic, summoning walls of stone to try to block Johnson's attack.

However, Johnson's strength was overwhelming. He easily shattered the stone walls and continued charging toward Raynaud. Not daring to relax, Raynaud kept casting Earth magic, trying to create a defensive barrier using earth elements.

But it was as though Johnson could see right through Raynaud's intentions. He swung his war hammer, smashing the defensive barrier with a single blow, then charged at Raynaud again. Raynaud had no choice but to keep dodging Johnson's attacks while looking for an opportunity to counterattack.

The battle between them was fierce and intense, with Johnson's brute strength and Raynaud's magic clashing in a powerful spectacle. The audience was filled with excitement, watching the thrilling confrontation.

However, just as the battle seemed to be at a stalemate, Raynaud suddenly activated a powerful Earth Magic Circle. Instantly, the entire arena was covered with earth elements, transforming into a muddy swamp. Johnson's movements slowed significantly in the swamp, and Raynaud seized the opportunity to counterattack, forming sharp spikes out of the earth and launching them toward Johnson.

Though Johnson was incredibly strong, he struggled to move in the swamp. He was pierced by several of the sharp earth spikes, letting out cries of pain. Eventually, he couldn't endure the pain and collapsed to the ground.

"I win!" Raynaud gasped, his eyes shining with victory.

The crowd erupted in cheers for Raynaud's win, and the referee's whistle rang out, declaring Raynaud the victor.

The final match was up next, and Liliana stepped onto the arena. Her opponent was a young woman named Kathleen from Itard Planet, who specialized in water magic. Kathleen wore a blue gown and held a delicate crystal staff, her eyes sparkling with clarity.

"Come on, let me see how powerful your water magic really is!" Liliana taunted, locking eyes with Kathleen.

Kathleen smiled slightly and said nothing. She gently waved her staff, and a clear stream of water surged from the tip, flowing toward Liliana. Liliana quickly dodged, feeling the water brush past her feet and dampen the arena.

"Such a gentle flow of water!" Liliana thought in surprise, realizing Kathleen's water magic was both graceful and powerful. She focused her mind, preparing for Kathleen's next move.

Kathleen didn't give Liliana much time to recover. She waved her staff again, sending ribbons of water swirling toward Liliana. Liliana swung her sword, cutting through the water as it came, looking for an opening to strike.

The duel was intense and tight, with Kathleen's water flows and Liliana's sword strikes weaving together, creating a beautiful scene in the arena. The audience watched, mesmerized by the display.

However, as time passed, Liliana began to gain the upper hand.

Her swordplay grew sharper, the blade cutting through the air like mercury, slashing toward Kathleen. Though Kathleen tried her best to block, she was eventually grazed by the sword, a cut appearing on her arm.

"I win!" Liliana cried out, panting, her eyes shining with triumph.

The crowd cheered for Liliana's victory, and the referee's whistle declared her the winner.

With the first round over, all five of Alfa Planet's young talents had won their matches.

They approached Enzo, smiling brightly as they looked at him.

Enzo nodded in approval and said, "Well done, kids. You've had a great start and brought glory to Alfa Planet. But remember, this is just the beginning. The geniuses from other planets will only get stronger from here, so always be ready!"
