android studio - too many apks after using build apk or release feature

I am trying to build an apk from build apk feature in the android studio. But I found something like the attached image. I never found this kind of apks ever, and I don't know how come this occurs. Can anybody explain what are those apks and why it's happening?

These are the apks that I have got.

My build.gradle file:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 30
    buildToolsVersion "30.0.0"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.sakhawat.youtubedownloader"
        minSdkVersion 23
        targetSdkVersion 30
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"

        testInstrumentationRunner "androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }

buildTypes {
    release {
        minifyEnabled false
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
    }
}

compileOptions {
    sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}

splits {
    abi {
        enable true
        reset()
        include 'x86', 'x86_64', 'armeabi-v7a', 'arm64-v8a'
        universalApk true
    }
}

}

dependencies {
implementation fileTree(dir: "libs", include: ["*.jar"])
implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.0.0'
implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:1.1.3'
implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.0.0'
implementation 'androidx.cardview:cardview:1.0.0'
implementation 'androidx.recyclerview:recyclerview:1.0.0'
implementation 'androidx.legacy:legacy-support-v4:1.0.0'
implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.0.2'
// circle image view
implementation 'de.hdodenhof:circleimageview:2.1.0'

//lottie animation loader
implementation 'com.airbnb.android:lottie:2.5.0-rc1'

//youtube play library
implementation 'com.github.yausername.youtubedl-android:library:0.12.+'
implementation "com.devbrackets.android:exomedia:4.3.0"

//rx android
implementation "io.reactivex.rxjava2:rxandroid:2.1.0"

//google admob
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:19.3.0'

It seems that your build.gradle file contains a splits block.

Please read this for more information.

[EDIT]

As i 've told you above your build.gradle file seems to contains a splits block. So here it is

splits {
    abi {
        enable true
        reset()
        include 'x86', 'x86_64', 'armeabi-v7a', 'arm64-v8a'
        universalApk true
    }
}

Please comment out this block, then try to build an apk again and let us know for the generated APKs.
