The implementation of these measures has led to a rapid growth in Jiangyu's urban population. Under Jiang Yu's careful management, the population of the eight cities gradually increased. This is an exciting moment because it means that Jiang Yu’s military strength is about to usher in an unprecedented huge increase. He will be able to recruit more soldiers and build a stronger army, better prepared for future battles. A few months passed by in a flash. During this period, since the resources that the Ears of Harvest could provide were ultimately limited, Shui Qinglan and Luo Yucheng, after careful consideration, decided to let Jiang Yu use these resources first to develop his own territory. This decision undoubtedly brought unprecedented development opportunities to Jiang Yu's territory. With sufficient resource support, Jiang Yu's territory expanded rapidly and various construction projects were carried out in full swing. In the past, when Jiang Yu only owned two cities, the population in the territory was only around 10 million. However, with the continuous development and growth of the eight cities, the population in the territory has surged to more than 20 million.

Despite this, Jiang Yu's territory still has huge development potential, because according to the current population limit, the eight cities can accommodate a total of 40 million people. At this moment, Jiang Yu suddenly remembered something he had forgotten: "Oh, by the way, the small portal has not been built yet..." He realized that after the territory was upgraded to level 15, he could build a small portal to achieve rapid communication with the Earth. Although the small portal can only transmit a limited number of items each time and requires a certain amount of resources, it undoubtedly facilitates communication and cooperation between the two places. Recalling that he had not built a portal before in order to save resources after the territory was upgraded, Jiang Yu thought it would be okay to build one now. So he immediately ordered Lin Hong to lead a team to start building the portal. However, what Jiang Yu did not expect was that as soon as the portal was built, he received a teleportation request from Donghai City. When he looked, he found that the person making the request was actually the principal Qi Siyuan. Jiang Yu did not hesitate and immediately agreed to Qi Siyuan's teleportation request. As soon as Qi Siyuan arrived at the territory, he was shocked by the scene before him. He didn't expect that Jiang Yu's territory had developed so prosperously and powerfully, and he couldn't help but admire it in his heart. "Hey kid, why are you building the portal now?" "Your next novice lord trial is over!" Qi Siyuan complained as soon as they met. Jiang Yu touched his head and asked in confusion: "My next term?" "Oh...and then?" He didn't know the real purpose of the principal's visit. "Anyway, take me for a walk first, and we can talk while we walk." Qi Siyuan suggested. "Please." Jiang Yu responded politely and took Qi Siyuan for a stroll in the territory. Qi Siyuan was amazed all the way and praised the beautiful scenery and prosperous scene of Jiang Yu's territory. While strolling around, Qi Siyuan finally explained to Jiang Yu the purpose of his visit.

It turned out that he came for Xia Mengshu, the top scorer in this year's exam. Qi Siyuan told Jiang Yu that Donghai City No. 5 High School was lucky again this time. Xia Mengshu, who transferred to the school temporarily, unexpectedly got the top score in the exam and successfully entered the genius area! Therefore, he hopes that Jiang Yu can invest in Xia Mengshu's development just like he supported Yu Wanyi last year. Qi Siyuan said with emotion: "This can also be considered a kind of inheritance!" Jiang Yu thought about it and felt that Qi Siyuan's words made sense. If Qi Siyuan hadn't been the matchmaker, Yu Wanyi wouldn't have helped him and Yu Qiu annihilate the four elite zone lords in the genius zone, and she wouldn't have given him a large relic. Therefore, he did not reject Qi Siyuan's request: "Okay, if I have the chance to meet her, I will give her a large relic, ordinary... or even rare!" It depends on Xia Mengshu's talent. Although they do not have many large relics at present, Jiang Yu believes that as the territory continues to grow and develop, they will definitely be able to seize more relics in the future to support Xia Mengshu's development. Finally, Jiang Yu asked Qi Siyuan about the latest situation in the genius area. Since he is still developing in the elite zone, he does not know the details of the genius zone. Qi Siyuan said: "The current situation of the human race in the Genius Zone is very good!" “Originally, Mo Lan Shiyun could have entered the elite zone, but the appearance of Xia Mengshu made Mo Lan Shiyun feel that if she could work with Xia Mengshu, she would be able to stabilize and promote the situation of the human race in the genius zone to further develop.” "However, their efforts are still just a step away. As long as they can raise their spirits, the entire genius zone will be firmly controlled by the human race!" Jiang Yu nodded and said, "I see. I wonder when this year's Siege of the City event will kick off. If it does, I'll go to the Genius Zone to take a look." After hearing this, Qi Siyuan nodded and said, "Well, I'll leave it to you then." Qi Siyuan left just like that. Next, Jiang Yu devoted all his energy to the development of the territory. In this situation, as time goes by, the time for the Sky Palace to open again... is finally not far away. The Stargazing Pavilion has officially announced the upcoming opening of the Sky Palace. As a result, most of the elite district was discussing the affairs of the Tianqiong Mansion. After Shui Qinglan and Luo Yucheng learned about this, they immediately went to Jiang Yu to discuss countermeasures. "The last time Tianqiong Palace was opened was three years ago. We must not miss this opportunity this time." Shui Qinglan said with a firm look. She had apparently done some research on the Sky Palace. After hearing this, Jiang Yu also opened the map of the elite area and studied it carefully: "According to the process, the lords of the elite area must first occupy the teleportation array that can be teleported to the Sky Palace." This is the first and most crucial step to enter the Tianqiong Palace. The Sky Palace is located above the battlefield of the heavens, so it is impossible to walk there directly. Finding and occupying the teleportation array became the first challenge faced by the lords. After all, the number of teleportation arrays is limited, and if you want to enter the Sky Palace, you must go through a large-scale elimination round.

Luo Yucheng said: "There is still some time before the Sky Palace opens, there is no need to be so anxious." Shui Qinglan said: "Normally speaking, there is no need to be so anxious, but this is not the case for the three of us." "Look at the map. Although we have occupied part of Shenju's territory, there are still territories of Qingmu, Yantie and others in the south. If we want to participate in the activities of Tianqiong Mansion, it will be easy for them to stop us." Luo Yucheng was shocked: "They are stopping us?" "Aren't they planning to enter the Sky Palace themselves?" If they wanted to go to the Sky Palace, there would be no time to stop them. (End of this chapter)
