C10 Increase in Attributes!
His Soul Coin balance soared to 100 in no time!
That's the advantage of extra rewards.
It was all thanks to having a powerful hero like Diaochan.
"I wonder how my attributes will change after I level up?"
Zhou Yan proceeded to upgrade himself.
"Soul Coins decreased by 100. Lord Zhou Yan has ascended from Level 0 to Level 1."
Territory alert: "New Overlord Chat Group and Trading Hall now activated."
When a Lord reaches Level 1, these two features are unlocked for all New Overlords worldwide. Moreover, as a Lord's level advances, the richness of information about their Territories also improves.
It's akin to a server upgrade on the backend.
The higher the level, the more robust the server.
Additionally, at the end of each year's New Overlord Trial, a ranking is established.
This ranking is determined by the daily comprehensive evaluation of each New Overlord.
This leaderboard is a crucial scorecard for a Lord, with top performers receiving substantial rewards from the institution.
Such rewards are incredibly enticing, especially for the average Lord.
Rankings for new territories are split into an International Main Board and a National Main Board. Post-trial, everyone can check their standings.
Within seven days of their awakening, all New Overlords have the chance to climb this leaderboard, which begins tallying seven days after the last global New Overlord awakening. Beyond this window, even stellar results won't secure a spot on the board.
No New Overlord would pass up such an extra reward.
They all make their way into their territories within the first seven days of awakening their Overlord Space.
After leveling up, Zhou Yan didn't rush to the chat room or trading hall; he went straight to his attribute panel, brimming with expectation.

Zhou Yan was astounded!
He had actually gained 10 Free Attribute Points!
And both his Charm and Luck had increased by a point!
Other Lords would see only a 0.1 increase in these attributes upon leveling up, but his increase was tenfold!
The disparity might not be significant early on, but it would become vast later.
He had even secured ten attribute points!
With the added Charm and Luck, he would gain 12 attribute points with each level-up, just like Diaochan!
The implications were staggering.
While other Lords gained only three points per level, he was getting three times more!
The benefits from the Rainbow Lord Space were immense!
He knew he must keep the details of his territory to himself.
After careful consideration, Zhou Yan allocated the ten free points: four to Strength, three to Physique, and three to Agility.
His Spirit Attribute was sufficient for now, so no increase was needed.
Once the attributes were distributed, Zhou Yan felt a surge of power within him.
Such is the boon of leveling up.
His profile was now more comprehensive than before.
Though the Soul Coins required were tenfold compared to his peers, the attributes he gained were also exponentially higher.
Zhou Yan watched as Diaochan helped him clear out the stone creatures and gather materials.
The mere thought of the extra rewards filled him with vigor!
Indeed, the New Overlord Trial was a golden opportunity for ordinary Lords to ascend.
With his current attributes, he could easily handle these Stone Demons, and Diaochan needn't worry about his well-being.
Before long, his Soul Coin count hit 200.
He opted to level up once more.
"Soul Coins reduced by 200. Lord Zhou Yan's level has risen from 1 to 2."
His Free Attribute Points increased by another ten!
His Charisma and Luck scores went up by one more point.
Zhou Yan was ecstatic!
Following his previous attribute distribution, he added four points to Strength, three to Physique, and three to Agility.
Now, his Strength was at 9.5, Physique at 7.5, and Agility at 9.
Such progress was exhilarating. He felt he could take down a monster with a single punch!
Yet, what he truly desired was to engage in a few hundred rounds of combat with Diaochan.
He pressed on, tirelessly dispatching the monsters!
Once his Soul Coin tally hit 200 again, he boosted Diaochan's level up to two.
"Soul Coins decreased by 200. Diaochan's level has been elevated from Level 1 to Level 2."
With the upgrade, Diaochan's overall attributes gained another two points, significantly bolstering her strength.
The way Diaochan's attributes were distributed upon leveling up clearly indicated she was the type of hero who developed in a well-rounded fashion.
Their newfound power greatly sped up their monster-slaying efficiency.
Several hours had passed by the time they finished clearing the area.
Thankfully, Zhou Yan had leveled up, gaining considerable strength. Otherwise, merely collecting these stones and treasure chests would have exhausted him.
His haul was substantial, yielding an impressive array of extra rewards.
Zhou Yan reviewed his loot:
"Soul Coins: 1620"
"Spirit Coins: 1438"
"One-star Stone: 2240"
"Two-star Stone: 117"
"Three-star Stone: 28"
The sight of so much stone material brought a smile to Zhou Yan's face.
Indeed, during the trial period, an ordinary person could rapidly gather resources.
He couldn't pinpoint the exact number of Stone Demons they had slain, but the area was now devoid of them.
And he still had a mountain of wooden chests to open, not to mention the several dozen Black Iron Treasure Chests, all thanks to Diaochan's high luck attribute.
A quick survey revealed nearly 600 chests in total—indicating they had vanquished close to 600 Stone Demons!
Diaochan's formidable prowess was a stroke of luck. Without her, he wouldn't have reaped such bountiful rewards.
"Chan, let's head back to our territory."
"Okay," Diaochan agreed, showing no signs of fatigue.
While Zhou Yan's attributes were close to Diaochan's, she was a hero with various innate talents that made her far stronger than him.
After the lengthy battle and with night approaching, they made their way back to their territory through an uncharted region.
On their journey, they encountered no formidable beasts but did manage to dispatch a good number of Level 2 roosters.
Rooster would be on the menu tonight!
Once back at the Spirit Vein Bamboo House, the ambient spiritual energy flowed into them, rejuvenating their weary bodies.
Zhou Yan could even sense his body growing stronger.
He revisited his detailed attributes:
"Name: Zhou Yan"
