Touching the Soul, Profit Moves Hearts
The system hosts in Wen Ziqian's live stream overheard the conversation between the three.
After immediately arriving at the Mission Hall and confirming the system notification, the live stream chat was flooded with comments:
"This system is incredibly generous! It's clear they're really starting to value invention and innovation more and more."
"This reward is too generous! I'm even tempted to switch back to research and invention."
"The reward is really tempting, but unfortunately I don't have the talent for it. I've tried several times before, but I haven't gotten anything out of it."
"I'm starting to train my son in invention now. As long as he invents something new and gets rewards, he won't have to worry about running out of Energy Points for a while."
"System rewards aren't easy to get; not everyone can be like Wen Ziqian, who seems to have a cheat code."
But then again, it's definitely worth a try! The rewards would be enormous if it succeeded.
"I plan to go to the Shennong Sect to see if I can become Wen Ziqian's apprentice. Even if I can't, I still want to enter Shennong Sect to learn skills, so I won't have to worry about earning Energy Points in the future."
"Count me in! I'll go too! As long as I can learn real skills, I won't have to worry about Energy Points anymore."
"This is already the second time the system has increased the rewards for invention and creation tasks. I wonder if it will continue to increase in the future?"
"If it goes up again, do you think it might directly reach 1 trillion Energy Points and 10 billion Soul Power?"
"That's probably impossible, isn't it? That amount is too outrageous! If they really gave out 1 trillion Energy Points and 10 billion Soul Power as a reward, every system host would probably go crazy."
Looking at the expressions of Wen Ziqian and the other two, and then glancing at the comments from the system hosts, Liu Yi's face quietly revealed a smile.
It seems that my move to increase the rewards was indeed the right one.
If there is sufficient profit to drive something in this world, people will naturally flock to it.
If no one is interested, it's simply because the interests haven't yet touched their very souls.
He refused to believe that these people wouldn't be tempted by the reward of 100 billion Energy Points and 1 billion Soul Power, and wouldn't be able to settle down and focus on research and invention.
However, he did not immediately issue a commendation notice for the Sun, Moon, and Stars Three Lights Spirit Rice.
Just because the rewards for invention and creation tasks were recently increased,
Issuing a commendation notice at this moment inevitably seems like a deliberate attempt to elevate the status of this spiritual rice.
Waiting an hour before releasing it will reduce the sense of artificiality.
When the appointed time arrived, Liu Yi immediately drafted a commendation notice:
Congratulations to Wen Ziqian's team on successfully cultivating the Sun, Moon, and Stars Three Lights Spirit Rice.
In accordance with the latest standards for rewarding inventions and creations, a reward of 100 billion Energy Points and 1 billion Soul Power will be awarded.
This is to inform you as a form of encouragement!
As soon as the commendation notice was issued, Wen Ziqian and the other two were instantly trembling with excitement.
They originally thought they would only get a maximum of 10 billion Energy Points and 1 million Soul Power.
Unexpectedly, the system just happened to be boosting the rewards for inventions and creations, and now the rewards I received have increased more than tenfold.
Suppressing his excitement, Wen Ziqian addressed the system host in the live stream:
"The Sun Sun, Moon, and Stars Three Lights Spirit Rice has just passed the system review. I will upload the spirit rice seeds to the System Store shortly, and those who are interested in planting it can purchase them themselves."
That's all for today's live stream. See you next time!
After exiting the live stream, he saw the data in the TikTok) backend:
This live stream earned a staggering 91.6 billion Energy Points, and attracted a staggering 285.6 billion viewers.
His eyes widened instantly, and he couldn't help but exclaim:
"So much? Live streaming is so profitable! The revenue from just this one session is almost as much as the system reward for cultivating the Sun, Moon, and Stars Three Lights Spirit Rice."
Seeing his shocked expression, Zhou Yu'an asked curiously:
"Master, how many Energy Points did we earn in this live stream? How many people watched it?"
Wen Ziqian excitedly announced the data, "We earned 91.6 billion Energy Points, and 285.6 billion people watched."
Zhou Yu'an's eyes widened in disbelief upon hearing this:
"Wow, that's a lot! If we do a few more live streams, wouldn't we earn more than breeding new species? Can we start earning Energy Points through live streams in the future?"
Shen Zhixia's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly, "Yes, Master, the revenue from live streaming is so high!"
Wen Ziqian took a deep breath to calm himself and slowly shook his head:
"Our live stream was so successful for two reasons: first, it was our first time doing a live stream, and second, we benefited from the successful cultivation of the Sun, Moon, and Stars Three Lights Spirit Rice."
In addition, the system suddenly increased the popularity of rewards for inventions and creations. These factors combined to create this effect, which will be difficult to replicate in the future.
More importantly, the core reason we've been able to attract so many people through live streaming is that we have solid technical skills and achievements to back us up. Without those, we simply couldn't have earned so much.
He paused slightly, his gaze sweeping over the disciple before him, his tone carrying an undeniable admonition:
"Don't even think about earning Energy Points through live streaming. Your priority right now is to improve your cultivation and refine your skills."
Of course, you can do live streams occasionally, but don't put the cart before the horse.
Zhou Yu'an and Shen Zhixia exchanged a glance, realizing that their master's words made sense, and bowed in unison in response:
"This disciple understands and will certainly dedicate myself to improving my cultivation and skills, so as not to fail my master's teachings."
Wen Ziqian nodded slightly, then turned his gaze to Li Xuan and other high-ranking members of the Shennong Sect who were waiting in the distance.
Knowing they were waiting for the live stream results, he slowly walked towards the crowd.
Li Xuan stepped forward first, cupped his hands in congratulations, and said, "Congratulations, Elder Wen!"
"We successfully cultivated the Sun, Moon, and Stars Three Lights Spirit Rice, winning a grand prize of 100 billion Energy Points and 1 billion Soul Power, once again enhancing the prestige of our Shennong Sect."
The other elders also stepped forward, offering their congratulations in a chorus of gestures.
"Congratulations, Elder Wen..."
Unable to contain his curiosity, Li Jingming stepped forward and asked:
"Elder Wen, how many Energy Points did you earn during this live stream?"
Facing the curious gazes of the crowd, Wen Ziqian answered truthfully:
"This live stream earned 91.6 billion Energy Points and was watched by 285.6 billion people."
"Hiss!"
A collective gasp rang out instantly, as all the high-ranking members of the Shennong Sect present were stunned by the enormous profits.
The 91.6 billion Energy Points far exceeded the profits they had previously gained from cultivating new species.
Excitement immediately appeared on their faces, and they all had the idea of earning Energy Points through live streaming.
Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Wen Ziqian knew what they were planning.
He immediately repeated to everyone what he had just said to his disciples Zhou Yu'an and Shen Zhixia.
After saying that, he added, "The reason this live stream generated so many Energy Points was entirely due to a confluence of favorable circumstances; such a situation will never happen again."
Li Xuan nodded in agreement. "Elder Wen is right. The success of this live broadcast was indeed due to a combination of factors, and it will be difficult to replicate such a good result."
However, if you want to do live streaming, you can try it, but you still need to focus on improving your cultivation and skills.
Cui Hua chimed in, "The key to Elder Wen's success in this live stream is that he had built up a great reputation through various inventions and creations, which enabled him to reap such rewards."
We'll find it difficult to replicate this; we should focus on improving our skills and techniques.
Elders like Li Jingming understood this principle, but they still wanted to try live streaming to see if they could succeed.
