The [Hall of Heroes] was currently only level 90, and there weren't any talents for summoning lumberjacks yet. However, he already had enough materials to upgrade the [Hall of Heroes], enough to even max it out. (Mistake in previous writing, has been corrected.)
The ability to purchase enough materials for the upgrade was entirely due to the shop Zhou Yan had opened on Canglan Continent.
A lord urgently needed his rare materials and intended to trade for them using Nine-Star Soul Crystals. Jin Sanyi learned of this and was naturally pleased. Thus, the other party spent a large amount of Nine-Star Soul Crystals to trade for a substantial quantity of rare materials.
To Zhou Yan, these high-level materials were the most precious. He was quite happy to have exchanged for so many rare materials this time.
After consuming a large amount of materials, the level of the [Hall of Heroes] finally increased from level ninety to level one hundred.
This was the first building in the territory to reach max level. The upgrade from level 1 to max level consumed an immense amount of resources. Ordinary lords, even if they possessed such a building, would likely not dare to construct it.
The materials required for the upgrade were simply too vast, consuming too many Spirit Coins. They couldn't even acquire the source of the materials, let alone upgrade them.
Zhou Yan opened the information for the max-level [Hall of Heroes] to view it.

After the level of the [Hall of Heroes] was maxed out, a new attribute appeared. This attribute was excellent; he could summon any talent he desired.
Therefore, Zhou Yan began to summon SSS-grade lumberjacks. There was no need for higher grades.
After summoning one hundred SSS-grade lumberjacks, Zhou Yan summoned another two hundred SS-grade lumberjacks, and then three hundred S-grade lumberjacks.
After leveling them all to level 50, Zhou Yan had them taken to Zhang Liang for processing.
Meanwhile, Zhou Yan went to the Combat Command Center, looked at the screen, and asked, "Have any other situations been discovered?"
"No other situations have been discovered for now. The generals of each legion have already departed and are heading out to deal with the monsters."
"There is some good news: the timber resources here are excellent. Besides the known Eight-Star Iron Armor Wood, there are also many Five-Star and Six-Star timber resources. Once all these timbers are harvested, we will obtain a vast amount of timber resources."
Yin Lihua briefly explained the current situation to Zhou Yan.
"So much timber resource? We are truly fortunate to have come to such a place."
Zhou Yan mused that this was likely due to his super luck taking effect. After all, with his current luck combined with Heavenly Dao's luck, it was already quite formidable.
Even the chosen ones of fortune paled in comparison to him.
The territory possessed several buildings that increased luck, and its luck was increasing daily. The [Ziwei Imperial Star] had also reached level 50 with the addition of a large amount of luck.
[Building: Ziwei Imperial Star]
[Level: 50 (Upgrade Required)]
[Quality: Unknown]
[Special Attribute 1: Gather Luck]
[Special Attribute 2: Enhance All Attributes of All Territory Residents]
[Special Attribute 3: Increase Luck of All Territory Residents]
[Special Attribute 4: Enhance Attributes of All Territory Buildings]
[Special Attribute 5: Reduce Negative Energy Infiltration of Territory]
[Description: Evolved from the Ziwei Flower, a special building from Ziwei Academy, possessing mysterious powers of heaven and earth.]
This building could only be upgraded by collecting luck, and Zhou Yan did not need to attend to it. In just over two months, this building had already reached level fifty.
However, after level fifty, the required luck would increase exponentially, and further upgrades would not be so easy.
Seeing so much timber, Zhou Yan realized that the people he had summoned were indeed too few.
Thus, Zhou Yan returned to the [Hall of Heroes] and summoned another thousand lumberjacks. Including the previously existing lumberjacks, their numbers now reached over ten thousand.
With over ten thousand lumberjacks, a considerable amount of timber could be harvested daily. After completing all this, Zhou Yan returned to the Combat Command Center.
"Lord, we have discovered the traces of others." Hua Yuerong looked at the screen from the reconnaissance aircraft, drawing everyone's attention.
"Oh." Zhou Yan quickly walked over and looked at the transmitted image. He indeed saw many people felling trees in the picture.
Such a situation was normal. Since Zhou Yan could come here, others surely could too. It was just that Zhou Yan's luck was good, and he had arrived in an area that had not yet been logged.
"Lord, we also have traces of others on our side." An image came from another direction.
Subsequently, they discovered more and more people logging in this area. However, they were still hundreds of kilometers apart and would not encounter each other for the time being.
"Our people will not encounter them yet, but the light that appeared when we first descended here will definitely attract others to investigate," Zhou Yan thought of a possibility.
"Lord, we have discovered several armies appearing in different directions. Their direction of advance should be towards our territory," Xiao Zhao said to Zhou Yan.
"It seems my guess was correct. They will absolutely not allow us to appear in an area with such high-grade timber. However, this place does not belong to them, and it won't be so easy for them to drive me away."
Zhou Yan nodded and sent a message to Zhang Liang: "Zhang Liang, several enemy forces are heading our way. I will have someone send you their locations. As for the subsequent battle plan, I will leave it to you."
