### English Version
Kayden had to kill some leaders a few times; they just focused on themselves and forgot about the missions they had received. These were merely rats that Kayden quickly eliminated, replacing them with others in power.
As the average force decreased, the strength of the elite rapidly increased because those who came from Kayden’s old kingdom already had a much more prepared mindset to advance through the ranks. Their wills were much stronger, and they grew even more powerful with the constant animal attacks.
Moreover, total war was approaching. Kayden made it clear that it would be a lawless mess—no act would be punished, no rules would exist, and no desire could be fulfilled. Heads would roll for absolutely nothing.
This total war would last 100 years, which would be enough time for all the chaos to settle into the right places, with each city being occupied only by the elite of the elite. The weak would be eliminated over time.
As time passed, Kayden had already finished training his first batch of mages. In just 100 years, he increased their power between 6 and 10 times. The results were completely insane, and his fame skyrocketed to another level at that moment because it was now clear that none of his words had been spoken lightly.
During these 100 years, Athena managed to recruit some research groups and a few large sects to move to the planet. All of this was done in the most isolated parts of the planet, ensuring the native population would have no contact with them.
In addition, enormous farms cultivating rare treasures were set up on the planet’s outskirts. These tasks were left entirely for Athena to regulate, and she did so with complete mastery, creating a sustainable ecosystem capable of generating revenues equivalent to more than a dozen class-A planets.
Kayden did not reopen opportunities in exchange for resources; he wanted to develop his planet first and focus on his cultivation. He had no desire to acquire more resources as he could no longer place any more resources on his planet.
At this point, the only thing he needed was time. Kayden could no longer add more resources to his planet. Dozens of mechanisms had been put into place, such as a tower that circulated mana at high speed, creating small holes that were automatically filled by the universe. This caused the world to have an extremely high mana density.
In the entire universe, not a single world had been as developed as Kayden’s. Beasts could naturally reach the ninth realm here, which was utterly absurd, but considering the amount of resources, it was almost normal. No god had ever concentrated all their riches in one place like this before, so everything Kayden was doing was a mystery.
Kayden’s planet was an absurd concentration of wealth, likely surpassing many entire galaxies in this universe, only outclassed by those with gods superior to Kayden.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, 500 years had gone by. Societies continued to grow at an absurd pace with government support. Each family had 2 to 5 children due to the government’s encouragement. Most of the children born were weaker than the previous generations in terms of willpower.
The average strength stabilized after dropping slightly. The resources were enough to suppress the difference in willpower between the generations. Still, this was merely a stopgap measure, as talent also increased, but over time, it would decline to a pathetic level.
Fortunately, Kayden had instituted the Great War. In the first few years, the cities developed independently without any contact, but then Kayden allowed spies and such things to happen, making it easier to gather information.
500 years was a relatively long time, and this allowed everyone to know who to attack and from whom to defend. They also secretly formed alliances. Everything was perfectly timed and planned.
As soon as time passed and the Great War broke out, unprecedented chaos descended upon Kayden’s world. 15% of the population died in the first few days from the clashes between cities. The traps laid by alliances wiped out entire cities in just a few days.
The previous generations didn’t know how to act. Most were well-trained for this event, but to say they were prepared would be a big lie. Most didn’t even know how to kill another human being. Peace had exacted its toll just as much as it had offered its harvest.
The older generations had a better idea of how wars worked. They weren’t as desperate, especially since, due to their strength, most weren’t used as cannon fodder—at least the majority weren’t.
As the weeks passed, the death tolls began to balance out. The weak were being slaughtered by the thousands every day. In a few months, everything was relatively stable. Wars were still happening, but only among the stronger cities, while the weaker ones had been entirely dominated.
In the first few weeks, the weaker cities were completely eradicated. Their people were enslaved, and their resources were shamelessly stolen without any repercussions. The government only intervened to prevent all cities from being wiped off the map.
Only a tiny fraction of resources was left for the vast majority of people. In just a few days, the strongest among this group were also chosen. They carved their way through blood, fighting, and killing for power. This time, no sheep rose to power—the strong blazed the trail after being decimated.
These cities were given a short grace period of a century to stabilize. Afterward, when the wars resumed, only low-level cities could fight against them. This was a way to ensure that the most powerful didn’t annihilate these cities. After all, Kayden wanted the development of his kingdom, even if it meant slightly altering the law of the jungle.

The larger cities entered a prolonged war of attrition, where the strongest fought only a few times a year. At this point, at least in most cities, brute force could no longer be used. However, in one southern city, a mage with eight rays appeared.
His power disrupted the entire balance for a few days, which was enough time for him to conquer a small empire of cities. Fortunately, Kayden noticed this and removed him from the scene with a fake death. Afterward, he quietly added the mage to his organization.
