Dealing with criminals who are vicious awakened individuals does not require discussion of so-called "human rights."

Interrogations throughout the night and fatigue bombardment—no matter how superior an awakened individual's physical qualities and spiritual will are, it's impossible to withstand forever; the collapse of defenses is just a matter of time.

"During the investigation of the Demon Abyss, the special forces team found some experimental records."

Li Ling quietly handed Bai Pu a file envelope: "These are photocopies. I think they should be useful to you."

Bai Pu opened the envelope, and the heading came into view.

[Experimental Records of Living Tissue of the Primordial Heart in Different Biological Environments]

Bai Pu's eyes lit up, and he shook Li Ling's hand vigorously twice: "It's indeed very useful. Thank you, Sister Ling."

Bai Pu needs to perform a second job transfer task, and he must find a way to transplant the Primordial Heart Tissue. This experimental record is exactly what he urgently needs.

Li Ling's cheeks flushed slightly, but her wheat-colored skin provided a good cover. She pretended not to notice her hand being held and said softly: "By the way, there's something else that happened while you were in the Heart Demon: Oath World, which I haven't told you yet."

"What is it?"

"The college entrance exam ended not long ago, and you're the record-breaking top scorer with extremely high popularity. Several video streaming platforms have invited you to sign contracts and promised you generous signing fees," Li Ling said.

"Is the signing bonus in Spiritual Points?" Bai Pu asked.

Li Ling shook her head with a smile: "Of course not."

"Then forget it." Bai Pu's first reaction was to refuse.

"So, even if the live streaming income can be converted to Spiritual Points, you're not interested?" Li Ling asked with a smile. She felt that sometimes she could get a hold of Bai Pu.

"Converted to Spiritual Points? Tell me more." Bai Pu was indeed intrigued.

"It was about a few decades ago when the Spirit Realm Will's influence extended into the video streaming field. All 'gifts' income earned by awakened individuals in the video streaming field can be converted into Spiritual Points according to the exchange rate of 59 Huaxia Coins to 1 Spiritual Point and credited to the awakened individual's Spiritual Points account."

Bai Pu was shocked: "Can it be operated like this? Can't one then exploit this by massively earning Spiritual Points through purchasing orders?"

Li Ling shook her head: "Just like with the college entrance exam, any cheating behavior cannot escape the insight of the Spirit Realm Will. Income obtained through cheating will incur the Spirit Realm Will's punishment, which includes purchasing orders—friendly purchase orders, mutual trust purchases, ghost army purchasing orders, etc., are all not allowed."

"Then couldn't the central bank adjust the exchange rate between Huaxia Coins and Spiritual Points, like changing it to one-to-one, doesn't that work?" Bai Pu asked.

"Do you think the exchange rate between Huaxia Coins and Spiritual Points is decided by the central bank?" Li Ling shook her head, "The current exchange rate of 59 to 1 is recognized as a reasonable rate by the Spirit Realm Will."

Bai Pu calmed down. In this way, it's not too far-fetched. With the oversight of the Spirit Realm Will, it indeed prevents exploiting opportunities, whether from official or personal levels.

In fact, it is equivalent to awakened individuals using their Huaxia Coin income to exchange for Spiritual Points with the Spirit Realm Will.

There are also exchange windows in national banks in reality for Spiritual Points and Huaxia Coins, but they rarely exchange for awakened individuals.

Without considering cheating methods like ordering padding, a top-level awakened star could earn at most a few million Huaxia Coins as gift income in a month, equivalent to about ten thousand Spiritual Points, roughly the cost of upgrading a piece of Dark Gold Equipment to 4.0.

It seems like a lot, but how many top-level awakened stars are there? Those who reach this level may earn even more Spiritual Points from their ventures into the Spirit Realm.

"Video streaming can bring not only Spiritual Point income but also enhance fame in the real world; you know that."

Li Ling suggested, "It's better to take advantage of your current high popularity to continue solidifying your impression in the public mind. When you graduate from university and enter various league domains, you have the hope of becoming a B-level or even A-level star! A-level stars have a reputation roulette draw every three months that's definitely something to look forward to.

"Moreover, it greatly increases the cost for the Superstar Alliance to deal with you, consistent with your reason for taking the college entrance exam."

Bai Pu exhaled deeply.

He knew Li Ling was right.

Strictly speaking, video streaming site hosts can't be considered traditional celebrities, they should be considered "internet celebrities," but with the leading position of the current video streaming industry, the line between internet celebrities and traditional celebrities is no longer clear.

If Bai Pu live streams while exploring the Wilderness Area and encounters an assassination in front of countless spectators... the popularity of this would be unprecedentedly high.

Bai Pu's feud with the Superstar Alliance has long been public. This high-profile assassination event would instantly make everyone think of the Superstar Alliance, and the backlash against them would surely be terrifying.

This is what is called "cost," or rather, "price."

We can say that as long as Bai Pu enhances his world fame and becomes a popular star, opening the Spiritual Camera every time he goes to the Wilderness Area is like having a life-saving talisman.

As long as the Superstar Alliance doesn't plan to perish together with Bai Pu, they wouldn't dare launch an assassination during a live broadcast.

"I'm somewhat curious about how the Spirit Realm Will contemplates this. It seems like it's encouraging awakened individuals to become stars. Could it be... to expand the Spirit Realm's influence and let more ordinary people understand the world of awakened individuals?"

Bai Pu made a sarcastic comment before saying to Li Ling, "Sister Ling, I'm willing to agree to sign a contract, but I want to choose the one with the shortest terms and least restrictions."

Li Ling nodded, indicating she understood, and she also agreed with Bai Pu's opinion—Bai Pu is currently in a fast-rising phase, and the next contract may have terms that are ten or even a hundred times better than this one.

"Currently, several platforms are offering invitations to you, with the most sincere three being: Militant Flag, Hundred Battles, and United Link, all considered first-tier platforms."

Li Ling took out various drafted agreements from the Storage Space and handed them to Bai Pu, introducing them one by one.

The two largest video streaming platforms domestically are All Gods and Chosen One, which are considered beyond first-tier platforms with the most registered users and highest popularity and traffic.

All Gods and Chosen One, the two top-tier video streaming platforms, have also sent invitations to Bai Pu due to his popularity as the top scorer of the college entrance exam.

Not every top scorer of the college entrance exam is valued by video streaming platforms. The streaming industry companies are optimistic about Bai Pu's high attractiveness and perfect star potential. With the addition of some talent, he could easily rise to prominence.

The current video streaming industry is flourishing, and those first-tier streaming platforms hold a vast number of registered users and have strong promotional capabilities. If cost is not considered, they could make an obscure awakened individual become famous overnight, reaching C-level or even B-level fame.

Therefore, the executives in the video streaming industry also hold quite a high status within the awakened individuals' circle. Many of the industry's top executives are powerful awakened individuals themselves.

Of course, temporary high fame isn't very useful. When awakened individuals perform roulette draws, what's considered is not the current fame level, but the comprehensive fame level over the past three months!

For example, Bai Pu, although he currently has the bonus of being the top scorer of the college entrance exam, with his fame skyrocketing to B-level (well-known far and wide), in the previous two months, he had virtually no fame, so his recent three-month comprehensive fame level is C-level (somewhat famous).

If he performs a roulette draw now, he can only draw from the C-level fame roulette—the reward value corresponds to the level of a Blue Treasure Chest.

However, some special rewards are unique to the fame roulette draw—such as high-level Spirit Realm Tickets. A C-level fame roulette can yield a C-level Ticket.

If Bai Pu could maintain a B-level fame for three months, he would be able to draw from the B-level fame roulette, with the reward value corresponding to a Golden Treasure Chest!
