The two world gods didn't know what they were doing or the significance of their actions. It is already unprecedented that a king of law can see their laws and not go mad. How are they to know that this small king of law is also connected to a free-flowing supply of Cosmic energy and that by exposing him to their supreme laws, they are adding kindling to the furnace within him? Their mistake is one that anyone can make.
If they knew his full situation then they wouldn't have shown Soverick their laws. They would have disregarded their competition to seize him just for the cosmic energy that he has. They didn't know so they felt they were playing with him.
Soverick on the hand didn't bother to enlighten them about this mistake. His encounter with their law of order was not by chance. He knew what he was looking for right from the start. That's the most important reason why he attended the competition even though he feared for his life.
