467 Most Popular in the Hunter Cosmic Sector (2)
“Then, I’ll go online and investigate.” Li Miaomiao thought for a while and couldn’t help but head for the virtual chamber, leaving Xu Jingming alone in the courtyard.
Xu Jingming sat in the courtyard and thought for a moment before shaking his head with a smile. My daughter is 28 years old, so it’s very normal for her to fall in love and get married. Time passes so quickly! I remember that I was only 29 when I first cultivated the evolutionary method.
He looked up and saw the scene on Mars clearly with the Primordial Battle Armor.
Mars had been completely transformed into an habitable planet, and more than ten million Earthlings lived there.
Almost every planet in the solar system had some spaceships docked. Even the asteroid belt was being excavated.
It’s almost time for my battle with Manflix. Xu Jingming got up. As my ranking rises, it’s getting harder and harder to fight opponents on the same level. I have to arrange a battle in advance.
Manflix… is ranked ninth in the Hunter Cosmic Sector! Xu Jingming’s eyes were filled with anticipation as he set off slowly for his cultivation chamber.
…
Virtual world network, Life Evolution World.
When Xu Jingming’s livestream launched, a massive number of viewers immediately surged in.
“Wu Ming opens up his livestream only ten minutes before the battle begins. Doesn’t Wu Ming feel any anxiety?”
“Wu Ming is a peerless genius of the entire cosmic human race. Manflix is only a small stepping stone on his growth path.”
“Manflix is also someone who aims to become an Origin lifeform. He’s still very impressive.”
Countless messages streamed past.
Xu Jingming watched the fanatical livestream, and the number of viewers in the livestream rapidly increased. It quickly exceeded one billion from a hundred million viewers and continued rising… The growth only slowed down after three billion.
How crazy. Although my strength hasn’t reached number one in the Hunter Cosmic Sector, my popularity is number one. Xu Jingming sighed inwardly.
“Brother Wu Ming, you’re finally online!” A dazzling message appeared on the entire platform of Life Evolution.
“Brother Qu, there’s no need to do a platform-wide advertisement. Save the money for yourself,” Xu Jingming said.
“Brother Wu Ming, you know that I only have money!” Another dazzling message continued to appear on the platform.
Xu Jingming didn’t say anything else.
He had long turned off the tipping system. However, he couldn’t do anything about others helping him advertise the livestream platform-wide!
“How’s my Junior Brother Wu Ming’s popularity?” In the stands, Redeye smiled and said, “He’s popular, right? The highest number of viewers he had online once exceeded ten billion. These viewers are all cosmic citizens.”
Qi Xiao sat to the side and nodded in surprise. “He’s popular, and many people have helped him advertise on the platform.”
“Life Evolution is the most popular world in the virtual world.” Redeye nodded. “Countless people are in Life Evolution at all times. The advertisement fee for everyone to see is very high.”
“It costs 100 million cosmic dollars to have a single advertisement flash once,” Redeye said. “My junior brother’s livestream receives dozens of advertisements a day.”
“Half of the advertisement fee goes to Life Evolution, and the host gets half,” Qi Xiao said. “Then, dozens of platform-wide advertisements earn him billions of cosmic dollars a day?”
“Indeed.” Redeye nodded. “The identity of Wu Ming is a secret to ordinary people, but in fact, when my junior brother participated in the selection of the mysterious land, all 352 Hunter Cosmic Sector factions knew about him. Back then, Junior Brother hadn’t even cultivated the evolutionary method for two years.”
“Therefore, it’s easy to deduce that my Junior Brother Wu Ming has only cultivated for 30 years,” Redeye said. “He has only cultivated for 30 years, but he’s already ranked 11th in the Hunter Cosmic Sector.”
“It has to be known that being in the Hunter Cosmic Sector’s top ten makes it almost certain that one can become an Origin lifeform.”
Redeye said, “Being ranked in the hundreds or thousands might mean having a flawed mind with superb talent in actual combat techniques. To reach the top ten of a cosmic sector, it must mean that his techniques and mind are perfect.”
“Everyone knows that my junior brother is very close to becoming an Origin lifeform. Ten years should be sufficient.” Redeye shook his head. “He’s becoming an Origin lifeform after cultivating for about 40 years? How terrifying.”
“Becoming an Origin lifeform after 40 years of cultivation?” Qi Xiao’s heart trembled when she heard that.
It was almost an impossibility for ordinary Lv. 8 cosmic lifeforms to become Origin lifeforms. It was already impressive for peerless geniuses to break through within a thousand years.
To break through within a hundred years? They were astonishing figures among cosmic humans.
To do so in around 40 years meant that anyone in the know knew what kind of terrifying existence a genius like Wu Ming would become.
“Look, that’s Qu Fang.” Redeye pointed at a ranking in the livestream. As Xu Jingming had turned off the tips, he only had a chance to enter the rankings after receiving a livestream advertisement.
First place was Qu Fang.
“Three years ago, he claimed to be a fanatical fan of Junior Brother Wu Ming. He helps him do platform-wide advertisements at least ten times a day without missing a single match. My junior brother might occasionally not livestream because of matters in reality, but as long as he livestreams… Qu Fang will definitely appear and help advertise. He will advertise more whenever my junior brother does outstandingly well in combat,” Redeye said. “He alone has spent nearly two trillion cosmic dollars on advertising in these three years.”
Qi Xiao exclaimed in surprise, “Because of him alone, your junior brother can get nearly one trillion just from getting half?”
“He’s not the only one who helps with the advertisement. Many factions in Hunter Cosmic Sector and even some factions in other cosmic sectors have come to help with the advertisement. They just want to rub shoulders with him,” Redeye said. “The share of my junior brother’s advertisement fee should’ve exceeded nine trillion. Of course, he still has to pay taxes.”
“It’s really not easy to earn money.” Although Qi Xiao’s family background was extraordinary, she was still a little shocked by the number.
This wealth had already exceeded the wealth of some weak civilizations.
“What kind of person is my junior brother? He’s going to become an Origin lifeform in about 40 years. This bit of money is just a congratulatory gift,” Redeye said. “As for that Qu Fang, he’s so diligent every day. For him to spend so much money, he should have some background in reality.”
Spending two trillion cosmic dollars might be all of Earth’s liquid funds, but to some important figures in the universe, it was only a gift.
…
Xu Jingming’s choice of using the name ‘Wu Ming’ meant he didn’t care if those people guessed that he was a peripheral member of the Primordial Research Institute.
I never expected that even after I switched off tipping, people would still help me spend on advertisements. Xu Jingming sighed inwardly. Of the few people who were the most attentive back then, Xu Jingming had also accepted their friend requests.
According to Brother Qu Fang, he was a pitiful person who had made his wealth from some capital after being expelled from his family.
As the eldest son of the Ancient River civilization’s king, he only received less than 1% of the family’s assets. It’s indeed quite pitiful. Xu Jingming knew a lot about the other party.
Buzz.
The scene in front of him changed—
The other party is online. Xu Jingming immediately understood that his opponent, Manflix, was online.
He was two minutes late; this was very normal. The top experts in the universe were almost certain to become Origin lifeforms, and they had all kinds of matters to attend to. It was understandable for them to be a few minutes late for an appointment.
